Chapter 1852: The world is like chess

Lin Wan smiled slightly, his expression was very calm, he looked at Master Lingyin calmly, and said unhurriedly: "Master Lingyin, this endgame you have put up, if you want to crack it, it is actually very easy. I believe that Apocalypse has already thought of a way to crack it. It's just that he doesn't want to do that. ”

Zhou Tianqi frowned, nodded slightly, and sighed: "That's right, one thousand enemies are injured, and eight hundred are self-inflicted." As a general, the most taboo thing to lead a war is to fight with the lives of the soldiers. Moreover, the world is like chess, unpredictable, and I don't want to fight a battle that I am not sure of. ”

Master Lingyin gently stroked his long silver-white beard and said slowly: "This world is like this game of chess, if you want to win this game of chess, if you want the world to be peaceful, you must have some sacrifices. As the future emperor and empress of the Great Feudal Kingdom, the two of you have the world in mind, which is really a blessing for the common people. However, Lao Na stargazing at night, although the previous catastrophe has been solved, but twenty years later, there will be another greater catastrophe. If the world cannot be unified and a prosperous era is created, it will be difficult to ensure peace for a hundred years after all. ”

Zhou Tianqi was stunned, and couldn't help but hesitate a little in his heart, Master Lingyin was right, now the five kingdoms are friendly because the current kings of the five kingdoms are friends that he and Lin Wan trust very much. But what about 20 years from now? He can't let his children face greater challenges, face that greater catastrophe for the sake of the current peace.

Lin Wan didn't take the matter of twenty years to heart, smiled faintly, and said, "Master Lingyin, before I came here, you were always worried about this catastrophe that would occur once in twenty years. But what is the result? Now that the crisis has been lifted, isn't it? So, 20 years from now, why should we be so entangled? Not to mention, 20 years from now, will there be another lucky star who can turn the tide? Let's just say that this astrology, perhaps, after 20 years of transformation, after 20 years of hard work, can not only avoid that catastrophe, but also unite the five countries to create a peaceful and prosperous era?"

Master Lingyin's long white eyebrows were still slightly wrinkled, obviously what he was thinking in his heart was not as optimistic as Lin Wan.

Zhou Tianqi smiled and nodded, and said, "Master, Wan'er is right, who knows what will happen in the future? We can't start a war now because we are worried about the catastrophe in 20 years, and advance that catastrophe to the present." So, haven't all our efforts over the past few years been in vain?"

Master Lingyin was stunned, he didn't expect that after more than two years of not seeing, Zhou Tianqi's thoughts had changed so much, and the young man who was once determined to dominate the world now thinks more about the peace of the country and the people.

Lin Wan smiled brightly and said, "Master Lingyin, if the kings of the next generation of the five kingdoms, Dafeng, Dongli, Nanyue, Xiling, and Beichen, are also friends of life and death, just like we are now. Twenty years later, will the catastrophe be easily abolished?"

Master Lingyin shook his head with a chuckle, and said, "The human heart is the most difficult to grasp, what Wan'er thinks is naturally very good, but how easy is it?"

Lin Wanwan smiled and said, "Master Lingyin, it's man-made, if you haven't tried it yet, how can you know that it can't?" Now that the kings of all countries are our good friends, if we take their children to live in the Great Feudal Kingdom for a year and a half in the future, let the children spend more time together, and let them become good friends, it will not be difficult." Even if there are one or two rebellious personalities, the others can be persuaded and contained, and they will not become the enemy of the world. ”

Zhou Tianqi looked at Lin Wan, smiled calmly, turned his head to look at Master Lingyin, and said firmly: "Wan'er is right, nothing is foolproof, even if the world is unified, there is no guarantee that the catastrophe will not come twenty years later." Even if we can really only be peaceful for 20 years, we can't mess up because of this, and we can't be suspicious of each other and plot against each other because of this. Now that all countries have just experienced some changes, it is the time when everything is in ruins, and the Great Feudal State is the same, and it can no longer withstand war. ”

Master Lingyin smiled and nodded, and said, "You can all think so clearly, naturally it is better, perhaps, it is really old Na too worried." Heaven has the virtue of a good life, and I hope that the catastrophe in 20 years will be able to survive safely like this time. ”

Zhou Tianqi bowed to Master Lingyin and said, "Master, the apprentice is here this time to invite you to enter the palace tomorrow to witness the wedding of the apprentice and Wan'er. If the apprentice loses his mother at a young age, if he does not have the teaching and care of the master, he will not have everything that follows. Without you, Wan'er and I wouldn't have been able to meet, know and fall in love so smoothly. ”

Master Lingyin smiled faintly and nodded: "Don't worry, the teacher will definitely enter the palace on time tomorrow." It's not early today, so let's go down the mountain quickly and go back to Beijing. ”

Zhou Tianqi was overjoyed in his heart, and bowed deeply to Master Lingyin, and happily responded: "Yes, master, the apprentice has taken his leave." ”

Lin Wan saw that Master Lingyin agreed so readily, and his face was full of joy, and he saluted Master Lingyin to say goodbye.

It was getting late, and Zhou Tianqi and Lin Wan didn't delay any longer, and rushed down the mountain hand in hand, with brisk steps and a happy mood, feeling like a pair of big birds flying through the mountains.

Master Lingyin looked at the backs of Zhou Tianqi and Lin Wan leaving, and couldn't help but have a relieved smile on his face.

After Zhou Tianqi and Lin Wan went down the mountain, they rode the black god of war and the red sail, and they galloped along the way, wanting to rush into the city after dark, otherwise, they would alarm the defenders of the East City Gate.

Red Sail and Black God of War cooperated very tacitly, walking side by side on the official road where no one was around, and unconsciously came to the East City Gate.

Suddenly, a fast horse in front of him rushed out of the city gate. The figure of the horse was small, apparently a woman, and the guards at the city gate did not stop her, apparently the woman had urgent business and a token in her hand.

Zhou Tianqi and Lin Wan slowed down and stood beside the road, watching the woman gradually approach.

Seeing the person clearly, Lin Wan couldn't help frowning slightly, secretly doubting in her heart, and couldn't help but worry. It's getting dark, Lu Manman is not in the regent palace at the moment, and he hasn't returned to the Lu Guogong Mansion, how can he ride a fast horse out of the city?

Lu Manman also saw Lin Wan and Zhou Tianqi, his anxious face suddenly became happy, and as soon as he lifted the reins, he slowed down, turned over and dismounted, and ran towards Lin Wan and Zhou Tianqi.

Lin Wan saw that Lu Manman was looking for him, so he hurriedly dismounted, greeted him, helped the panting Lu Manman, frowned slightly, and asked anxiously: "Fourth Sister Lu, are you here to find me? Is there something going on with the third emperor's sister-in-law?"
