In the big tent of the second prince, Tuoba Ling was in a hurry. The assassins sent out yesterday have not heard any news so far, but they have heard that Qin Luo has returned. Although he was slightly injured, there was no mortal danger.

Qin Luo claimed to the outside world that he was lost, and he was in danger in the Wild Wolf Valley. But Tuoba Ling didn't believe it at all, Qin Luo was attacked by wolves. He guessed that it was the assassins he sent out who wanted to sneak attack in the Wild Wolf Valley, but Qin Luo escaped by chance.

However, the second prince couldn't figure out how Qin Luo, a scholar with no power to restrain chickens, defeated the most powerful warrior under him? Moreover, the warrior never returned, and it is estimated that he has been killed.

"There is also a spy who followed Qin Luo, and he didn't come back either." Tuoba Ling's subordinates reminded, "It seems that Qin Luo has a master around him to protect him, and the assassination may not work." ”

"It's me who underestimates the enemy. For a person like him, Nan Chu will definitely protect him secretly, I am too careless. After Tuoba Ling calmed down, he now regretted it a little. He shouldn't have quarreled with his brother, and he shouldn't have attacked without asking him about anything. Tuoba Ling lost two of his subordinates at once, but he couldn't kill Qin Luo, and he suddenly felt exhausted.

"Master, rest assured, Qin Luo can hide from the first day of the first month and can't hide from the fifteenth, wait for us to seize the evidence of Qin Luo's collaboration with the enemy, go directly to the Khan, and denounce him. At that time, Qin Luo was speechless, and could only lead his neck to be killed. ”

"You're thinking too simply." Tuoba Ling let out a long sigh, "If you want Qin Luo to show your feet, it's even more difficult than ascending to the sky." ”

However, before Tuoba Ling could find trouble with Qin Luo, Tuoba Yan took the first step and found his brother to ask about Qin Luo's injury.

After Tuoba Yan came out of Qin Luo, the more he thought about it, the more angry he felt. His own important courtier was actually framed by the second brother like this, so he directly asked his subordinates to pass on the second prince to the Golden Palace for questioning.

When Tuoba Ling entered, he faintly felt that Tuoba Yan's face was wrong. I saw the Khan sitting silently on the main seat, his face sinking like water, and he didn't say anything when he saw Tuoba Ling coming.

"Third brother, you call me?" Tuoba Ling looked at his younger brother inexplicably.

Tuoba Yan asked directly, "Have you heard, Qin Luo is injured." ”

"Accepted...... Wounded? Tuoba Ling was so shocked that he couldn't tell why the Khan suddenly brought it up.

Tuoba Yan continued in a steady tone: "I just visited him, and it seems that the injury is not light. ”

Tuoba Ling's eyelids jumped slightly, and he covered up: "Yes, how did you get hurt?" ”

Tuoba Yan didn't directly tear off his face for a showdown, but just said, "Qin Luo said that he was attacked by fierce beasts in the Wild Wolf Valley. ”

"How could you be so careless?" Tuoba Ling lowered his head weakly, "He is a literati, why would he go to a place like Wild Wolf Valley." ”

"I'm also curious, why did he go to Wolf Valley." Tuoba Yan stared at the eyes of the second brother and said quietly, "I guess he was tied up by the gangsters." ”

"Huh?" Tuoba Ling looked at his younger brother in surprise, his heartbeat stopped for half a beat, and he forced a smile, "Hehe, third brother, your imagination is too rich." ”

"Really?" Tuoba Yan said coldly, "I saw that Qin Luo's wrist was scarred by the friction of the rope, you say, what is going on?" ”

Tuoba Ling secretly scolded those two people in his heart for not doing things cleanly, and this time the handle was caught by Tuoba Yan, he could only pretend to be stupid, "Who wants to kill Qin Luo?" ”

"What do you say?" Tuoba asked rhetorically.

"Do you doubt me?" Tuoba Ling pretended to be aggrieved and angry, and said to the Khan, "I will never use such indiscriminate methods. ”

"I also think that the second brother will not do this." Tuoba Yan smiled, "I don't doubt the second brother, but I think it's time to add another batch of guards to Qin Luo." ”

"Of course." Tuoba Ling was indignant in his heart, this time he was too anxious, he really stole chickens and rice.

Tuoba Yan continued: "There is one more thing, this time the first battle of Chu was lost, in order to boost morale, I plan to fight in person. ”

"Pro-conscription?" Tuoba Ling was slightly stunned, then thought about it and agreed, "It's okay to be pro-Zheng, it's just that the dragons in the rear have no owner, who does the Khan plan to let sit in Qingyun?" ”

"The Great Master told me a few days ago that he was old and sick and wanted to retire." Tuoba Yan said, "He recommended you to take the position of national teacher." ”

"This ...... How can I take on this heavy responsibility. Tuoba Ling excused himself slightly.

"Second brother, you don't have to shirk it." Tuoba Yan said, "But you are indeed still young, and I am afraid that you will not be able to suppress those old ministers." This time, you will go out with me, and after you have made military achievements, you can be promoted when you come back. ”

Only then did Tuoba Ling react to his brother's words, and he hurriedly said, "You want to take me away?" That Qingyun ......"

Tuoba Yan interrupted him and said conclusively: "Xiang Qiang's internal affairs, I will hand it over to Qin Luo." Up and down the Golden Palace, hand it over to Yelekodun to take care of. ”

"Qin Luo and Ye Letian are not their own people." Tuoba Ling resolutely opposed this arrangement.

Tuoba retorted, "One is my courtier, and the other is my wife. Who says it's not their own people? ”

Tuoba Ling opened his mouth and wanted to persuade again, but he heard Tuoba Yan say: "Can you still find someone who can take on this important task?" ”

Tuoba Ling was suddenly asked, now the great teacher Tuoba Sheng is seriously ill, and the elders of the Tuoba clan know nothing about internal affairs. Xiang Qiang is a nomadic people, emphasizing military force over literature, and has always had more generals and fewer ministers.

"It's better to ...... I'll stay......" Tuoba Ling pleaded.

Originally, Tuoba Yan also planned to let his second brother and Qin Luo discuss the state together, but after this assassination incident, how dare Tuoba Yan let the two of them work together, especially when he was not there, they were likely to quarrel and even fight.

So Tuoba Yan said: "Originally, I also wanted the second brother to stay and take Qin Luo on the expedition. It's just that he was wounded, how to go to the battlefield. The war ahead is critical, and I must have a military advisor by my side to make plans. ”

After hearing this, Tuoba Ling once again regretted his stupid decision. At that time, just thinking about getting rid of it quickly, he never expected that Qin Luo would escape the catastrophe.

Tuoba seemed to be smiling, watching the second brother's face change again and again. In fact, he already had the answer in his heart. If it were usual, the second brother would have spoken out a long time ago, where would he look forward and backward like today, and be tied. To be a thief with a weak heart, it is the same for everyone.

The second prince was indeed frightened by Tuobayan's coercion and temptation, so he didn't argue much and easily compromised. He looked at his brother and thought to himself that he had really grown up and learned to figure out people's hearts.

The Khan's personal expedition, although it is very common in Xiang Qiang, still has to prepare one or two. When Jimmy heard that the Khan was going to conquer himself, he hurried to Tuoba Yan and asked him to take him with him. Tuoba didn't want to take a woman to the battlefield, but Jimmy said, "Don't think I don't know, you didn't care about your body when you fought, and you dared to drink when you were injured last time." If I'm not there, who can control you. ”

"Jimmy, I didn't drink ......" Tuoba Yan really couldn't say it, where did he drink last time? Obviously, it was Jimmy who replaced the good wine with white water.

"If I hadn't changed it, you would have drunk it. A few years ago, you had to hunt on horseback before you were healed. Jimmy looked at him angrily, with a look of "I don't know about you yet"?

"I ...... I ......" Tuoba was defeated, so he had to agree, "Okay, okay, go go, take you there, isn't this okay?" ”

"Hmm...... That's pretty much it. Jimmy smiled smugly and walked away happily.

"The battle ahead is urgent, and the Khan intends to fight in person. Here in the Golden Palace, it's going to be troublesome. As soon as Jimmy got the news, he rushed over and announced the "unfortunate" news to Yelekotun.

"You mean, let me stay in the Golden Palace?" Yereyi asked, "What about you?" ”

"I am the Khan's personal handmaid, of course, I went out with the Khan and took care of his diet and daily life." Jimmy said triumphantly.

To tell the truth, Ye Leyi almost jumped for joy when she heard that Tuoba Yan was going to leave Qingyun. However, she looked at Jimmy's smug look, as if to show off that she could follow Khan?

But now that Yeleyi is playing the role of her sister, she followed Jimmy and pretended to be sad and said, "The Khan wants to go to the army in person, and it is estimated that he will not be able to come back for a few months." I'm really ...... I can't bear him. ”

Seeing this, Jimmy's heart became even more proud, and even his tone was much lighter, "Don't worry, I'll take care of Khan." ”

After Jimmy left, Saren was indignant and hugged Yereyi, "Kedun, look at her. Little slave girl, dare to speak to you like this. ”

"Since I got married, when will she give me a good face?" Yereyi was used to it, but she had big things to do, and she didn't bother to bother with Jimmy.

"She's jealous, she's jealous." Saren said sharply.

"Why does she eat my jealousy, no one is competing with her. Didn't she see that the Khan wouldn't even enter my room? "Ye Leyi really doesn't understand the thoughts of these little women, maybe she was born in the wrong place, and her temperament is more like a man.

Saren snorted coldly, "Although Khan and you are not husband and wife, they have the name of husband and wife. Even if Jimmy climbed into Khan's bed, he would be a concubine at best. Of course she is jealous of you and hates you. ”

"According to you, Jimmy, is she going to hate all who marry Tuoba and become a Kedun woman?" Yereyi rolled her eyes, "At that time, when Servant Lankton was alive, Jimmy would have been killed if he dared to speak to Servan Ranor like this. It's not that my sister has no temper and a weak temperament, so she bullied. ”

"Yes." Saren nodded and said, "Ke Dun is too good to his subordinates, and if you beat them, they will be honest." ”

Ye Leyi smiled, where is my sister good to the people, is my sister good to the people. With her character, it's not as simple as a beating.

The civil and military ministers around Tuoba Yan were busy preparing for the Khan's personal expedition, but Qin Luo was busy and reading books and recuperating from his injuries in the tent. The ten-day period agreed with Yeleyi was coming, and the abrasions on his body were all healed, so he went out alone in a low-key manner and went to Stone Mountain to wait.

He sat on the hillside, lonely and leisurely looking at the sky. Ever since Sulan Nuo told him not to always look south, Qin Luo gradually learned to let go of homesickness and no longer look at the south or the north. Look up at the sky and look at the four directions.
