When the army entered Luoyang City, Tuoba Hong saw that on both sides of the official road, the newly sown farmland was withered in Huangyang City, and the emperor's joy of triumph was also diluted a lot by this spring drought.

Because he had to enter the city with the soldiers, Tuoba Hong couldn't return to the palace in advance, and no matter how impatient he was, he couldn't show it at all. The commanders of the four armies all have their own rewards, and Tuoba Hong personally rode with Wang Xuanzhi, and named him an auxiliary general in the Taiji Palace, and gave him the hereditary title of Earl of Kaiyang. Wang Xuanzhi received the general's seal, but insisted on resigning the title.

It was already evening after the meritorious deeds were rewarded, Tuoba Hong asked Wang Xuanzhi to temporarily live in a Hualin annex outside the palace, and allowed the soldiers to go to reunite with their families first, and then set up a celebration banquet three days later.

In the Huayin Palace, there were already internal supervisors with faster legs and feet, who brought the news of the emperor's triumph. Feng Miao felt relaxed at this time, remembering that she hadn't eaten all day, so she asked Su Wen to pass dinner, and stood on the edge of the bed, holding a plain shirt with her hands.

When sewing winter clothes for those soldiers, she also sewed a close-fitting midcoat for Tuoba Hong, just enough to wear under the armor. The dimensions were all cut out from memory, and if you close your eyes slightly, you can clearly see the person standing in front of her. But the clothes were sewn, but she didn't ask anyone to take them, she didn't know what the situation was on the battlefield, but she simply didn't want him to have the slightest distraction in his heart.

There was a sound of the door opening softly behind him, Feng Miao thought that Su Wen had come back, covered the middle coat with a cloth, and was just about to turn around, but a pair of hands were already around his waist.

"Miao'er......" Tuoba Hong pressed his head on her shoulder, still with the smell of dust running all the way, "I'm back." ”

Feng Miao stood quietly, sniffing the familiar smell on his body. Without the scent of ambergris in the dormitory, his unique aura was even more obvious, rushing straight into her nose with a bit of toughness.

Tuoba Hong's hand went around her side and unfolded the middle coat, "I made it, why don't you take it for me to wear?" ”

"Who did it for you," Feng Miao whispered, reaching out to pull the dress back, "Leave it for Huai'er to wear when she grows up, can't you?" ”

Tuoba Hong raised his hand and dodged back, "Okay, then I will wear it first, and when Huai'er grows up, I will return it to him." Holding the clothes in his hand, he somehow suddenly remembered the empty room in Qingyan Temple, and more than 40 pieces of clothes from childhood to adulthood should have been made by a mother who was separated from the child.

He held Feng Miao's shoulders, made her face him, and kissed her lightly on the forehead, "Miao'er, I shouldn't have fostered Huai'er under Gao Zhaorong's name, so that your mother and son can't see each other." I did have other concerns at that time, and I hope you can understand one or two. But now, I don't want to wronged Huai'er, give me some time, and I will definitely let Huai'er come back to you. Huai'er's green eyes are always easy to provoke criticism, and he always has to guard against people with ulterior motives to make a big fuss about this matter.

Hearing him mention Huai'er, Feng Miao's tears couldn't be stopped, Huai'er was already two years old, he turned over for the first time, spoke for the first time, and walked for the first time...... She, as a mother, is not around. Those moments, if you miss them, you will miss them forever, and you will never feel the joy of that moment. Su Wen once said that her body is not suitable for childbearing, and maybe she will only have one child in this life.

"Miao'er," Tuoba Hong held her in his arms, "even if it's for Huai'er's sake, don't be angry with me anymore, okay?" He pinched the tip of Feng Miao's small nose and said jokingly, "I want to be a wise and martial father, you are not allowed to be bad." ”

Feng Miao finally couldn't help it, sobbed and laughed, and said angrily, "I thought the emperor didn't like Huai'er, except for the day when Huai'er cried and wanted the second prince's Yu Ruyi, the emperor didn't hug Huai'er much......"

Tuoba Hong was a little silent, after Huai'er returned to the palace, at first because of the doubts brought by those blue eyes, and then because he was preparing for the southern expedition, he did have little time to accompany the child. He took one of Feng Miao's hands and put it to his lips, "I haven't saved enough money to buy a bow and a horse for Huai'er, and when Huai'er comes back, you have to tell him for me that my father is trying to save for him." ”

Feng Miao was angry and laughed, raised her hand to wipe a handful of tears, and rubbed it on Tuoba Hong's face, "What a stingy father, you go and tell Huai'er yourself......"

Tuoba Hong took advantage of the situation to hold her hand, "This time Wang Xuanzhi came back with me, I heard him say, you have worked very hard to give birth to a child, and I am very distressed......"

It wasn't until he heard Tuoba Hong talk about it that Feng Miao knew that the newly sealed auxiliary general turned out to be Wang Xuanzhi. Hearing that he was mixed with the monks and escaped Xiao Luan's pursuit, Feng Miao couldn't help but sigh.

"Your Majesty, since the eldest brother wants us to be honest with each other, I won't hide it from you, the former Marquis of Xichang and the current emperor of the Southern Dynasty are my biological fathers, and my brother and I are really not the children of King Changli." Feng Miao briefly told Tuoba Hong what happened in the Southern Dynasty, "Your Majesty, if one day you and he meet on the battlefield, I want to beg you not to take his life." The emperor wants to march south, never for himself, and the strong on the battlefield will win, and he can't force it. No matter how bad he is, it will always be the biological father of me and my brother, if the emperor kills him with his own hands, I don't know how to tell Huai'er about all this in the future. ”

The first time Tuoba Hong heard her talk about this, she was originally a little worried in her heart, afraid that she would return to her biological father, but in the end, she didn't want Tuoba Hong and Huai'er to embarrass the father and son, she thought about everyone, but not herself. The bottom of his heart was like a big bell in an ancient temple, stirring and making a long sound, Tuoba Hong nodded solemnly, "I promise you that I will not take Xiao Luan's life." ”

I don't know where Su Wen went to get dinner, but he didn't come back until it was dark. Tuoba Hong said with some regret: "I have been on the expedition for more than half a year, and I have missed the flowering period of this osmanthus tree, and I don't know when I will be able to drink a bowl of osmanthus wine with you." ”

Dinner is just a few of the most ordinary side dishes, Feng Miao personally put corn and rice, sent it to Tuoba Hong, and said softly, "My biggest wish since I was a child is to have dinner with my parents and brother." Now it seems that this wish will never be realized. ”

Tuoba Hong saw that she looked lonely, and knew that she remembered her biological mother who was missing, so he took the dishes and chopsticks and said to her, "King Changli is still in the aftermath, and he will return to Luoyang in a few days. ”

Feng Miao nodded lightly, she hadn't seen her brother for a long time, and she didn't know how he was now. "Your Majesty, I haven't been able to fulfill my wish, I hope Huai'er can come true," she looked at Tuoba Hong sincerely, "With a father like the emperor who has created a thousand years of imperial business, I'm afraid it's really stressful to be your son." Please don't expect too much from Huai'er, I don't want him to be crowned king and official, or even ...... I just want him to grow old safely, with a gentle, thoughtful, informed wife, and a few healthy children. ”

Tuoba Hong nodded solemnly, "I know your mind." ”

Three days later, the celebration banquet was held in the Taiji Hall of the Luoyang Imperial Palace, and the concubine and the prince of the clan also participated. Because there were many military generals present, and the emperor intended to be lenient, the atmosphere at the banquet was not quite the same as before, the generals laughed loudly, and the atmosphere at the banquet became warmer.

When the wine was drunk, Tuoba Hong raised the golden cup in his hand from the seat and invited the generals to drink with him. The generals, who had both respect and admiration for the emperor, raised their wine bowls one after another, and raised their heads to drink the wine in the bowl in the roaring applause.

The princes of the clan, who were originally dodging and dodging, were a little unhappy when they saw this scene. Someone at the table glanced at Feng Qing meaningfully, and she immediately stood up knowingly, and knelt down solemnly in front of Tuoba, "Your Majesty, although today is a wedding banquet to celebrate, the concubine has a few words to say to the emperor." ”

The queen suddenly put on a posture of admonishment, and everyone at the banquet felt strange, and couldn't help but put down the cup and spoon, waiting to hear what she said.

"There is a great drought in Luoyang this year, and most of the seedlings planted by the people around the city are dry and yellow, and they cannot survive." Feng Qing's voice was raised very high, and the entire hall could hear it clearly, "The emperor first moved the capital, and then insisted on the southern expedition, several uncles have objected, but the emperor refused to listen to the advice of the old ministers, but reused the island from the Southern Dynasty to surrender the people." The concubine knew that these words might make the emperor unhappy, but since the concubine was in the middle palace, it was the concubine's duty to speak directly to the emperor. ”

She paused for a moment, and said more and more clearly, "Could it be that the emperor never thought that the spring drought might be a warning omen from heaven?" ”

As soon as the words came out, the hall was silent. Feng Qing didn't dare to directly accuse the emperor of immorality, but between the words, it was clear that what he meant.

Tuoba Hong's face was already a little angry, but he knew that Feng Qing would never care about the people who farmed, and if she could say these words, someone must have taught her secretly. Reprimanding Feng Qing is not a big deal, but he has just rewarded the soldiers of the Southern Expedition, and he doesn't want to deepen the disagreement with the old ministers of the clan at this time.

"Queen, I already know what you mean, and I have sent officials to check the drought situation and help the people who farm to build ditches to divert water." Tuoba Hong said in a stern tone, "These are not things that the harem should interfere too much, you should step back first." ”

Feng Qing leaned over and kowtowed heavily, "Your Majesty, the concubines risked their lives to make their speeches, all for the sake of Great Wei, please think twice." ”

Tuoba Hong clenched the golden cup in his hand, the golden cup used by the emperor was very pure, so the texture was relatively soft, the cup was pinched out by his fingers A few marks, obviously he was extremely disappointed in Feng Qing's anger, but he tried his best to suppress it.

Seeing this, Feng Miao shook his head slightly, got up and walked to the middle of the hall. Before she could speak, she was just about to kneel down to Feng Qing to salute, when Tuoba Hong said, "If you don't admonish me, just stand on the side and speak, you don't have to kneel." He still remembered what he had promised, and would not let Feng Miao kneel to anyone again, especially, he would not let her kneel Feng Qing again.

"Your Majesty, the concubine has a question for the queen mother," Feng Miao listened to the emperor's instructions, did not kneel, but still bowed politely to Feng Qing, "In all dynasties, if the drought is so severe that the emperor personally asks for rain, the history books will record it." Does the queen know when the earliest time recorded in the history books happened? ”
