On the incense table in the Yizun Pavilion, the incense candles had burned out, and Lin Qitan stood in the corner of the pavilion, looking at the top of the Jiuxuan Peak hidden above the clouds, and his heart was full of loneliness.

This world belongs to him, but he is getting more and more lonely day by day, without his father's discipline, without the brotherly dispute, he should have lived a very comfortable life, but why, when there is no one around him who can fight, he is so lonely and lonely?

"Set the chessboard. Lin Qitan turned around and walked into the Yizun Pavilion.

"Your Majesty......" Wu Hansheng looked at the sky, "On this cold day, you must take care of the dragon's body." ”

"Yes, Your Majesty," Yuan Tingyi stepped forward, "Today seems to be colder than in previous years, noon has passed, and the concubine feels that it is better to go down the mountain earlier." ”

"Call the Yiren, and I will play a game of chess with him. Lin Qitan sat in his robe, as if he had not heard the words of Yuan Tingyi and Wu Huansheng.

"Yes. Wu Huansheng and Yuan Tingyi glanced at each other and hurriedly ran towards the stone steps.

The wind was cold and cold on the flat slope of the middle of the mountain, and the concubines and concubines of the palace and the princess were a little unbearable earlier, so they immediately walked down the stone steps after the ceremony and avoided the stone pavilion where they rested under the Yizun Pavilion.

Lin Yiren stood beside the cliff not far from the stone pavilion, quietly looking at the distant mountain with his hands in his hands, and the slight laughter of Lin Yinyin and Lin Yuemei came from time to time, embellishing the empty mountain with a little more mortal atmosphere. Lin Juyao, Lin Jianzhi, Lin Ziyan and others are still serving on the slope of the mountain, and Yan Xu wants to make King Zhe's mansion owe him affection, and Lin Yi people only need to protect Lin Yinyin.

"Lord Wang, Lord Wang...... "Wu Hansheng ran all the way in small steps, "Your Majesty, please go up and play a game." ”

Lin Yiren's eyebrows jumped, and his eyes swept faintly over several lush pine and cypress trees nearby. It is said that it should be the best place to launch a secret attack, but Qiao Xinning's men and horses have already occupied the favorable terrain, where should Yan Xu break through and reverse the disadvantage?

"There is Lao Wu's father-in-law. Lin Yiren followed Wu Huansheng up the steps, and when he passed by Lin Jianzhi's side, he noticed the suspicious look in his eyes.

In the Yizun Pavilion, four maidservants are rushing in to place the chessboard, place the charcoal fire, and the last maid is even holding a green jade wine pot and two green jade luminous cups.

Holding a game, a glass of wine and talking, no wonder Lin Jianzhi was so surprised. A hint of deep meaning flashed in Lin Yiren's starry eyes...... Lin Qitan has always been quite alienated from him, and today in this cold world, I don't know what Lin Qitan has in mind.

"Your Majesty. Lin Yiren took off his robe and stepped into the Yizun Pavilion and saluted Lin Qitan.

"Well," Lin Qitan nodded, turned his head to Wu Huan and said, "It's windy, let them fence this place." ”

Wu Huansheng was slightly stunned, and he didn't know what Emperor Ye said for a while.

"And with the curtain. Lin Qitan pointed impatiently to the simple house, and Wu Huansheng knew that Emperor Ye meant to use a bright yellow curtain to enclose the Yizun Pavilion.

"Yes. Wu Huansheng immediately shook off the dust and shouted.

The soldiers guarding the imperial tomb hurriedly carried a bundle of cloth curtains and ran to the Yizun Pavilion.

"Go outside, and leave me and the people here. Lin Qitan said to Wu Huan.

Wu Huansheng was stunned again, and before he could speak, Lin Jianzhi frowned and rushed forward, "It's really rare to see my father and King Huang playing against each other, please let my father allow his sons to watch chess on the sidelines for study." ”

"Father," Lin Ziyan also ran into the Yizun Pavilion with great interest, "Brother Wang and Father rarely play chess, last time the son lost the father and the emperor's three eyes, and today the son also wants to see how many sons the brother will lose to the father and the emperor." ”

"You all go down, I just want to play a game of chess quietly with the Yiren today. Lin Qitan picked up the wine cup and drank it all.

"Father!" Lin Jian's eyes became more gloomy.

These days, there has been no news of the Wujiu Order in the rivers and lakes, and if his guess is correct, the token is still in the hands of the Lin Yi people. Lin Yiren did not hand over the Wujiu Order, and also dispelled Emperor Ye's suspicions, and now everyone is in Jiuxuan Peak, which is only a few hundred meters away from the mysterious Jiuxuan Cave...... An indescribable intuition told Lin Jianzhi that this year's festival seemed to be surging, and in that unknown corner, something was hiding that made him uneasy.

"Go down!" Lin Qitan put down his wine glass heavily.

"Brother Huang, let's go down. Lin Ziyan persuaded, "I think that there is an elegant game like my father and brother Wang on Jiuxuan Peak, which can be regarded as a good story for future generations." ”

"Good story?" Lin Jian's eyes shimmered and stared at Lin Yiren, "Don't lie or lie!"

The prince's words really frightened the younger brothers. Lin Yiren bowed slightly to Lin Tantan, and sat on the opposite case with his robe, "Weichen's chess skills are not good, black first and white later, please ask the emperor Xu Weichen to play black chess." ”

"Exactly. Lin Qitan agreed.

A black piece falls into the upper right corner of the chessboard.

Under the stone pavilion, the soldiers guarding the imperial tomb unfolded the bright yellow cloth curtain and slowly closed along the Yizun Pavilion.

"Prince, look ......" Wu Hansheng stood beside Lin Jianzhi, looking very embarrassed.

Lin Jian's eyes were uncertain, and after hesitating for a moment, he bowed to Lin Tantan, "It is indeed quite interesting to talk about the Spring and Autumn Period with your hands, and the ministers will not disturb the Yaxing of the father." With that, he turned around and retreated with anger on his face.

Seeing this, Lin Ziyan smiled and bowed to Lin Qitan, "The son wishes his father the emperor to attack the city and win the victory, and the younger brother also wishes the king and brother good luck and victory." ”

"As far as your mouth is sweet, you can't offend anyone. Lin Qitan shook his head with a smile and watched Lin Ziyan turn around and retreat.

The chess cloth was wrong, and in the blink of an eye, after a few rounds, when the last gap was left in the bright yellow cloth curtain, Wu Huansheng also retreated from the Yizun Pavilion. The black and white two sons of this chess game are metaphors for all things in heaven and earth between offense and defense, advance and retreat, virtual and real, strength and weakness, which is no longer a world that Wu Hansheng can understand.

Another white piece landed on the chessboard.

"Ziyan has always said that you are superb in chess, why are you so restrained today?" Lin said.

"The saying of superb chess skills is the praise of the five princes," Lin Yiren's lips hooked slightly, and he looked at the chessboard, "It is rare for Weichen to play against the emperor, and there is also nervousness in his heart." ”

"The ancients said that chess has the image of heaven and earth, the principle of yin and yang, the order of the distribution of stars, and the opportunity of wind and thunder...... I can't remember what else is going on. ”

"Back to the emperor," Lin Yiren slowly fell into a son, "and then there is 'the right to live and die in the spring and autumn, the momentum of mountains and rivers, the rise and fall of the world, and the rise and fall of personnel'." ”

"The rise and fall of the world, the rise and fall of personnel...... Lin Qitan seemed to fall into memory, "When the emperor suddenly came to Wenhong Palace, let me memorize this paragraph, I can't remember the next words, thanks to your father's reminder on the side, I barely passed the assessment of the emperor." ”

Lin Yiren's breath stagnated slightly, and then said casually, "Weichen only remembers that when he was a child, he saw the emperor riding a horse and flying and wearing a poplar and shooting willows, and his unparalleled heroic demeanor is really admirable." ”

"The vicissitudes of life, the imperial brother has passed away thirteen years in a blink of an eye. Lin Qitan sighed.

"Yes. Lin Yiren gently rubbed the chess pieces, "Wei Chen occasionally thinks, if his father is still alive, he can travel with Wei Chen's idle clouds and wild cranes, and travel all over the country, wouldn't it be the happiest thing in the world." ”

"You like to travel all day long, no wonder Ziyan's heart can't be settled. Lin said.

"What the emperor admonished," the corners of Lin Yiren's lips hooked slightly, "Concubine Qin also recited it a few times, saying that the problems of the five princes were all brought out by Weichen. ”
