In the villa, for several days, Qiyun was listless. Tuoba Tao thought that she was sick from the cold, but told her to take medicine to rest, but he didn't know that her heart was tossing and turning.

On this day, the sun was shining and the greenery was verdant. She stepped on the spring color, sat on the hillside, and enjoyed the strong spring feeling. Basking in the sun, my body is warm, and the gloom in my heart has disappeared a lot. She wanted to be at ease alone, but it was not as she wanted, and An Jie and Tuoba Qi stepped forward.

Tuoba Qi and Tuoba Tao are equals, and they are cousins. Tuoba Qi is strong and strong, and brave and good at fighting. Tuoba Tao was close to him, and the two often went in and out together, and they were intimate. An Jie is smart and eloquent, usually talks the most, and often can say ideas, and Tuoba Tao also introduces him as a confidant.

Tuoba Qi and An Jie sandwiched her left and right, sitting on the grass, greeting and pulling with her, and Qiyun had no choice but to talk with them without a match. When the two saw her, the two of them could only chat by themselves.

Suddenly, An Jie asked Tuoba Qi: "Tuoba Qi, tell me about the battle situation between His Majesty and Liu Song's army on the battlefield in Henan?" ”

When Qiyun heard this, he was shocked in his heart, cheered up, listened attentively, and only heard Tuoba Qi reply: "Ahead, our army defeated the Song army under the leadership of His Majesty. It is said that Luoyang, Hujiaoguan and other 300 miles of land between the rivers have been returned to the Great Wei. ”

An Jie's eyes widened and he asked, "Didn't they all say that Liu Song's Beifu soldiers were invincible?" Why are you so unbeaten now? ”

Tuoba Qi smiled: "Don't you know the way? After the death of Liu Yu, the founding emperor of the Liu Song Dynasty, Liu Yifu, who succeeded to the throne, was a little emperor who did not reach the weak crown, and he only knew how to play and play every day, completely losing his father's majesty, and the Beifu soldiers were long gone. ”

"It is said that Liu Yu is also quite wise, why did he choose such a son as the heir to the throne? Does he have no other sons? ”

"I heard that Liu Yu has a son, and there are several sons, and there are many outstanding ones. For example, Liu Yizhen's poetry and writings in the teenage town guard, as well as Liu Yilong, who is proficient in historiography, are all stronger than Liu Yifu. ”

"It seems that Liu Yu did not choose a successor, which is a huge mistake. It's like our saint who took precautions, cultivated King Taiping early, went to the northern frontier to fight against Rouran two years ago, and put the military affairs of the border fortress in order. Where to find such an eldest son of the emperor? ”

Tuoba Qi said: "Yes, when I was a child, several of our princes made mistakes, and King Taiping stood up for us more than once, suffered on our behalf, and was very righteous. I remember one time, I instigated a few princes to leave the study, and secretly ran to the fireworks outside the imperial city to have a good time, and when I came back, the emperor found out, and the emperor wanted to punish us severely, but at this time, King Taiping took the fault on himself, saying that he instigated it. As a result, he was beaten half to death by the emperor and lay in bed for half a month before recovering. Since then, I have sworn that Tuobaqi's life is his. ”

"Yes, as a prince, such a character is especially rare." An Jie sighed, paused for a moment, and asked him quietly: "Tuoba Qi, why do you say that the Holy Lord is the crown prince and still does not crown King Taiping as the crown prince?" ”

Tuoba Qi paused: "State affairs such as establishing a prince are not something you and me have to worry about. ”

"Shh," An Jie motioned for Tuoba Qi to silence and pointed ahead, "Look, His Royal Highness King Taiping has come down." ”

Qiyun raised his eyes when he heard the sound, and saw that in the woods in front of him, two people walked out and rode together. He Sining was riding on a white horse, looking cautious, while Tuoba Tao was leading the horse for her, as if he was teaching Sining to ride a horse.

The spring breeze blew, sending a wisp of the girl's crisp laughter, joyful and light, like a silver bell fairy music. The two gradually approached, the man was handsome and lofty, showing heroic and graceful gestures, and the woman was delicate and soft, charming like spring water. Against the backdrop of spring, it is like a picture, as beautiful as heaven and earth.

Tuoba Qi and An Jie looked at the praise and envy. Qiyun looked at the pair of beautiful people in front of him, and there was a trace of bitterness in his heart.

Tuoba Tao also saw the three people on the grass on the hillside, and he said softly to Si Ning: "Si Ning, we will practice here today, you are also tired." I'll let An Jie and Tuoba Qi send you back. ”

Si Ning hurriedly said coquettishly: "Your Highness, I'm not tired. Shall we ride a little longer? ”

Tuoba Tao said to her dotingly: "Si Ning, be obedient, you go back first." I'm looking for Yunqing for something. He motioned to An Jie and the others and sent Si Ning back. The two of them took the beauty and happily accompanied Si Ning to turn around. Sining was a little gloomy and went back a little reluctantly.

Tuoba Tao walked to Qiyun's side, sat down next to her, and asked with concern, "Yunqing, are these ** bodies good?" ”

"Hmm." Qiyun snorted gloomily and did not answer. The two were speechless for a while.

What am I doing here? Sad all day long, self-pity, not at all like the past self, what is wrong with me? Thinking about this, Qiyun was distraught and lay down on her back on the grass. Seeing the vast sky and white clouds, the mood seems to be a little brighter.

Tuoba Tao saw her lying down, her hands folded behind her head, and she looked very comfortable. So, following her example, he also lay down on his back. Qiyun saw him lying side by side with him, and the man's breath came to his nose, as if he was enveloping her, and his heart was hit by a deer, and he sat up straight.

Tuoba Tao saw her suddenly get up, her expression was timid, and she couldn't help but feel surprised in her heart, and she also sat up. Tuoba Tao saw that Qiyun didn't seem to dare to look at him, couldn't see her face, but saw that the roots behind her ears were so red that they seemed to be dripping blood, and he was suspicious in his heart.

When Tuoba Tao was stunned, he heard Qiyun ask him: "You just said that you have something to do with me, what is the matter?" "The subtle sound is almost inaudible.

Tuoba Tao's eyes stared at her, "Oh, this." I see you here with me, and I am very bored all day. Tomorrow in the villa, the owner of the village will give us students a day off. I've made an appointment with the others, and tomorrow we'll go hunting, and I'll take you with me. ”

Qiyun glanced at him and then put it away, didn't speak, just nodded. Seeing that she agreed, Tuoba Tao stood up, took her hand and was about to leave, while saying, "Go, I'll take you to prepare something, which will be useful when hunting tomorrow." Tuoba Tao shook Qiyun's hand, only feeling slender and soft, not at all like a man's hand, and there was a strangeness in his heart.

Suddenly, a woman's exclamation came from afar in the woods, Tuoba Tao heard it, hurriedly threw Qiyun's hand, and rushed away, his words seemed to be a little nervous and anxious, and only dropped a sentence, "That's Si Ning's voice, what's wrong with her?" ”

Qiyun looked at his distant figure in a daze, and it was difficult to distinguish the taste in his heart for a while. When she slowly returned to the village, she realized that He Sining had fallen off her horse, broke her foot, and was hugged back by Tuobatao.

At night, sleeping in bed, Qiyun's thoughts wandered, tossing and turning, and he couldn't sleep at night.
