After the dedication, the envoys of the nations, accompanied by Lu Li, Tuoba Pi and others, visited Pingcheng for several days, and then left with their rewards. Yucheng, the prince of Rouran, stayed in Pingcheng for a long time, and had no intention of leaving.

A few days later, Yu Cheng suddenly met Emperor Wencheng to ask for his resignation, Tuoba Jun looked at Tuoba Zitui who had returned to Beijing with a smile on his face, bowed his head slightly, and rewarded him with 1,000 cattle and sheep, 100 pieces of cloth, etc.

The Rouran army on the front line suddenly pressed the border, which really surprised the border generals, but Tuoba Zi was prepared in advance, calmly holding the tiger talisman all the way to dispatch troops and generals, requisitioning grain and grass, and gathering enough men and horses to confront him. I don't want the weather to freeze and the frost to fall constantly, Rouran's army in the country, which was already short of food and clothing, and only prepared food and grass for a few days, was hungry after ten days, and many soldiers and generals suffered from cold diarrhea, and there were many casualties before the war began.

Tuoba Zitui did not move a single soldier, but just made a little trick to make people throw down the aged corn from the city tower, and Rouran, who was already in order to deter the Northern Wei Dynasty and the lack of grain and grass, saw that the grain was almost red-eyed. The generals of Rouran clearly ordered those who stole and robbed the corn of the enemy country to be killed, but as the smell of fragrant food in the building continued to waft, the little food left could not reach the soldiers and generals at the bottom, and the ** that filled the stomach was rising day by day.

Tuoba pushed the corn that was hoisted from the hanging hook on the city tower, and cooked porridge to eat on the city tower openly, and the hungry Rouran soldiers no longer cared about the military order, and coaxed the corn one after another.

The well-fed Rouran army, the dysentery became more and more serious, most of them were no longer capable of fighting, Tuoba Zitui only slightly led the army of 5,000 to start the battle, and the 200,000 army collapsed and retreated again and again.

Yu Cheng, who was preparing to wait for an opportunity in the capital, heard the report from the spies and had to change his original plan and return to China to recuperate first, so as to prepare for another battle in the coming day. All of a sudden, the civil and military officials, including Tuoba Jun, breathed a sigh of relief.

On this day, Murong Baiyao entered the palace to teach Tuoba Yun martial arts, and Feng Luoli was bored, so he stood outside the palace and watched Tuoba Yun learn martial arts. It has only been a few months since he met Tuoba Yun, but this kind and intelligent child has identified Feng Luoli's family. Feng Luoli also fell in love with this young brother who Tuoba Jun had loved since he was a child.

"Nobleman!" When Tuoba Yun was practicing by himself, Murong Baiyao slowly walked to Feng Luoli's side, bent down to worship, stretched out his hand and took out a solid white fox fur brocade bag and handed it to Feng Luoli, "This is what Prince Rouran Yucheng asked Weichen to hand over to the nobles before leaving, saying that the nobles may use it in the future." ”

The tall and burly, direct man came to mind, Feng Luoli reached out and took the brocade bag, the snow-white coat color did not have a trace of impurities, and the gold horse belt buckle connected by red silk thread was used as a tie, hanging down the thin tassels, which was very delicate and chic.

"Bai Yao, you and I are not outsiders, so call me Li'er when no one else is around!" Feng Luoli looked at Murong Baiyao, the Kong Ming lantern that sounded that day and the past of the two of them met, and he had already regarded him as an amiable and credible person in his heart. Feng Luoli didn't want to turn the people around him into cold officialdom and a hierarchical harem.

Murong Baiyao nodded, "As long as Li'er needs it, Baiyao will always be there!" ”

Feng Luoli nodded and smiled, vaguely remembering that when he was bullied in his childhood private school, his brother had said the same thing, but now his brother didn't know where he was, and his life and death were unknown.

"These days, thanks to your teachings, Yun'er has made such rapid progress. I will show your majesty and reward you for your deeds. ”

A bitter smile flowed out of Murong Baiyao's curved lips, and he thanked him, "In this way, thank you very much!" ”

Feng Luoli didn't understand the bitterness at the corners of Murong Baiyao's lips, but she could only do so, so she only glanced at Tuoba Yun, who was still practicing, and turned to leave.

"Master! Is the royal sister-in-law gone? ”

After practicing, Tuoba Yun wiped his sweat, walked up to Murong Baiyao, and stretched out his hand to shake it in front of Murong Baiyao, who was in a daze.

Murong Baiyao came to his senses and looked at Tuoba Yun, "Lord Wang! That's it for today! ”

Tuoba Yun put down the sword in his hand, sighed and walked up to Murong Baiyao, "Master! I know you like my sister-in-law! ”

Murong Baiyao was taken aback, "The prince must not speak in vain!" ”

Tuoba Yun waved his hand indifferently, "What's there to make a fuss about, who wouldn't like the imperial sister-in-law if she is so good!" I like the royal sister-in-law so much. Saying that, he hung his head in some frustration, "The imperial brother also likes the imperial sister-in-law, but he has married another woman, and he will marry more women in the future!" ”

Murong Baiyao could see Tuoba Yun's dependence on Feng Luoli, and unconsciously squatted down, put his hands on Tuoba Yun's shoulders, and solemnly looked at this sensible and intelligent child, "Lord Wang, your imperial brother is for the sake of Jiangshan Sheji......

"I know! Nowadays, there are rumors inside and outside the palace, all of which say that the royal brother favors the unicorn princess alone and snubs the imperial sister-in-law. The imperial sister-in-law must be very sad, I like the imperial sister-in-law and don't want her to be sad. Therefore, when I grow up in the future, I must protect my sister-in-law and never let anyone bully her! Tuoba Yun clenched his small fist and said seriously.

Murong Baiyao nodded, "Okay!" ”

"Master! You're going to work with me to protect the royal sister-in-law, right?! As if he was looking for an ally, Tuoba Yun stared straight at Murong Baiyao with a pair of incomparably clear eyes.

Murong Baiyao stretched out his hand, "Okay!" Weichen promised the prince! This life will definitely protect her! Saying that, he swore with Tuoba Yun by high-fivering, "However, you have to promise Weichen, the prince, this is a secret between us, and we must not tell anyone!" Otherwise, you are a treacherous! ”

Tuoba Yun nodded, bowed down and bowed, "Master's order, don't dare to disobey!" ”

The two men, one big and one young, made such a simple oath and decided to protect the woman who would never be replaced by a second person for them for the rest of their lives.

Feng Luoli sat quietly in the side hall of Zhaoyang Palace, copying Han Yuefu. It's been three days, and Tuoba Jun has been staying at Princess Qilin of the Purple Palace every day. Rao is clearly aware that she should not be jealous, Rao is Tuoba Jun will come to visit every day, Rao is she knows Tuoba Jun's helplessness, but the pain in her heart that cannot be soothed can always burst out when she dreams back at midnight, dripping the blood that gnaws at a heart.

"Noble! The fox lotus pepper room asks to see you outside the hall! ”

Rou'er walked in in small steps, put a cup of tea in front of Feng Luoli, and sorted out the poems that Feng Luoli had copied.

Feng Luoli put down the pen, took a sip of the tea, and said in a clear voice: "Let her wait for a while in the main hall, and the palace will arrive later!" ”

"Yes!" Rou'er bowed and retreated.

On that day, Princess Qilin danced in the Heavenly Palace, and Tuoba Jun stayed in the Purple Palace for three consecutive days, which made people spread the word that the emperor loved the new fox lotus pepper room very much, and lived in the house every night, which can be described as thousands of graces.

In less than a day, this rumor spread throughout Pingcheng, and naturally it also reached Feng Luoli's ears. Feng Luoli chose to ignore it, and stayed quietly in the Zhaoyang Palace, or taught Tuoba Yun homework, or traced some poems and paintings, and strictly ordered the people of the Zhaoyang Palace not to spread rumors.

Rao is like this, the harem of the emperors of all dynasties, the most important thing is women and incidents, and what should come will always come!
