I have my own little abacus, but how can I convince Old Man Xiao? I suspect that most of the people in the Qingyu Pavilion should think the same way as Old Man Xiao. I don't understand the struggle for power and profit in ancient society, but I know much more about gang fire.

I moved the books on the bookcase to the side, made a space, and went to the bookshelf to take out the Go, and said to Old Man Xiao: "Mr. Xiao, since you are a member of the Qingyu Pavilion, can you listen to me?" ”

Old man Xiao watched me busy from the side, and arched his hand: "Son, please speak, the old man listens." ”

I put the chessboard on the bookcase, took out a sunspot and put it in the center, and said to Old Man Xiao: "Mr. Xiao, suppose this is the King of Jin." As he spoke, he placed a white child horizontally next to him, "This is His Royal Highness the Prince." ”

Then he surrounded three black sons around Bai Zi, pointed at them and said, "These three are the Queen, Yang Su and the 'Seven Don't Kill' Villa...... Oh, no, the Seven Don't Kill Villa should be here. "I will move the sunspot who is in the same line with the Kuroko, who represents the King of Jin, and the Shirako, who represents the crown prince, to the place next to the King of Jin next to Yang Su.

"Mr. Xiao, please see, this is the current situation of His Royal Highness the Prince, and the Qingyu Pavilion is only here at most." The second white seed was placed by me next to the "Seven Non-Killing" mountain villa, on a longitudinal line with the King of Jin, and at the same time placed a black seed next to it, "This indicates a traitor in the Qingyu Pavilion." Qingyu Pavilion is already suffering from the enemy on its own back, and even if it has the heart to save the prince, it is afraid that it will not be able to save it. ”

When I analyzed the situation of the gang before, I was familiar with the boss and learned some, I put the current situation on the chessboard to show Old Man Xiao, and after Old Man Xiao carefully looked at the chess game I put out, his reaction was the same as Xun Yi's before, very lost.

I continued: "Mr. Xiao, don't hide it, I don't care about the prince. Now that it has been built and entrusted by others, it is enough to try its best to keep the Qingyu Pavilion safe. ”

After saying this, I took out a bunch of white seeds, surrounded all the black ones, and said, "Only in this way can the danger of the Qingyu Pavilion be solved." "I looked at all the whites, but I only focused on the second one, although I wasn't sure, but I felt that only this one was what I really wanted to protect.

Old man Xiao shook his head and said, "Although the son is dedicated, he can't reach his ears. ”

I didn't listen to what Old Man Xiao said at all, in the past, when the boss encountered this situation, he first laid out the method of victory, and then let us be the younger brothers to find all the things we needed, and if we can find it, we can win when the fire is merged, and when we can't find it, we will run quickly, and we will not suffer anyway.

I counted, in addition to the one white son in the Qingyu Pavilion, assuming that the white son of the prince was abolished in the end, and the black son of the queen was not taken into account, if you want to catch the remaining black seeds, you still need nine white seeds. Old man Xiao said that it was unlikely, and I completely agreed, because it was not a question of finding things at the moment, but to determine what these white people were, and they didn't even have a basic direction, so there was no way to find them.

However, I am an optimist by nature, and seeing that Old Man Xiao was so sluggish, he said: "Mr. Xiao, the coming day is long, there is no need to say such depressing words." ”

The white chess pieces shook in front of my eyes as if they were glowing, as if they were moving beads, I fixed my mind, I don't know why I felt that I had a sense of mission, only by eating all these sunspots, I could protect the Qingyu Pavilion, but the question is, where do I find these nine white pieces? I need to think about it.

Old man Xiao was slumped by the position I put up, and he became as careless as before, and never mentioned to me about helping the prince again. But I, on the contrary, began to become fascinated by this situation - since my ambition to be the boss has been inexplicably satisfied, why don't I take this opportunity to use my ingenuity? And wouldn't it be great if they did something they thought was impossible? At this time, I didn't connect this chess game with rebellion at all, but in fact, this is obvious - what else can I do if I destroy the King of Jin, who will be the emperor in the future?

I soon saw Xun Yi again. When the Chinese New Year was about to begin, a young man of twenty-five or sixteen years old came to the house, claiming to be Xue Wanche, saying that he was entrusted by Wei Ting, the young son of the head of Yingzhou Wei, to send me a few books. I recognized him because his eyes were a little scary, and I realized that his eyes that night were not ghostly, but fierce.

Dad didn't ask much, but he just read the book sent and felt a little strange, it was "Sun Wuzi's Thirteen Chapters" and "Liutao" and "Three Strategies", especially the "Sun Wuzi's Thirteen Chapters", which was densely packed with annotations, and I don't know who wrote it.

I'm not sure if these books were really sent by Wei Ting, because it's been a long time since I've been with him, and I don't believe he would send these books in such a timely manner. As I expected, Wei Ting's delivery of the book was just a pretext, and the real person who delivered the book was Bian Xu, another sword envoy of the Qingyu Pavilion.

Xue Wanche told me that the "Seven Don't Kill" Villa is in a mess now, and I don't have time to take care of Qingyu Pavilion, and the matter is related to Li Jing, who I have always been interested in. It turned out that Li Jing had a lot of dealings with the "Seven Don't Kill" Villa, and the gift he sent last year - a few ears - was cut off by the owner of the village at the request of the King of Jin, which should have been five pairs, but the assassin who took the lead escaped, this assassin was Du Ruo, who poisoned the King of Qin, was a woman, she was injured at the time, and it stands to reason that she could not run away, and the reason why she was able to escape was because Li Jing took pity on the jade and protected her.

The owner of the village hated others to meddle in the affairs of his villa, so he wanted to get rid of Li Jing with a grudge, but Li Jing was a celebrity around Yang Su, so that the "Seven Don't Kill" villa was on the bar with the Yueguo Mansion again, and the King of Jin came forward to mediate It didn't work, Li Jing weighed it and felt that the Yueguo Mansion might not be a place to stay for a long time, so he took a concubine he had liked for a long time and ran away. In the chaos, he injured Yang Wanxiang, the fifth prince of the Yue State Mansion, Yang Wanxiang is still lying unconscious in bed, and the "Seven Don't Kill" Villa was warned by the King of Jin, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.

No wonder Li Jing was full of dust and sadness when he came, it turned out that he had offended someone who shouldn't be offended.

When I heard this, a flash of inspiration flashed in my head - I always thought that Li Jing was not a small character, and now he is the enemy of the sunspot, which ...... I seemed to see Li Jing walking towards me with a white light.

"These volumes of "Thirteen Chapters of Sun Wuzi" were approved by Emperor Wu himself, Mr. Xiao said that the son needed these, and Mr. Bian entrusted him to send the book." Xue Wanche put the book on the bookcase, interrupted my thoughts, and continued, "This book is extremely precious, please cherish it." ”

When I thought about it, Emperor Wu of Wei is Cao Cao, and what I am holding in my hand is actually a book that Cao Cao has read and approved? It's just handsome – I've got to find someone to show it off.

But before I could find someone to show off, someone came to me, and that person was Daddy. I said that with his cleverness, how could he not feel strange, it turned out that he was just saving face for me in front of Xue Wanche.

"Built, do you have something to hide from your father?" Dad said he would take me to the barracks to see, and I was still thinking about the cold winter moon on the road, didn't I say it this year? It turned out to be looking for trouble with me.

My hand was led by my father and I walked out of the city, and the barracks were outside the city, probably because the weather was too cold, and we didn't meet a few people along the way. I hesitated for a long time, and I wasn't sure whether to confess these things to my father, because he was a person from King Jin. But after all, he is a father, he doesn't hide anything from me, I'm always embarrassed to hide it from him, right?

"Father, do you remember the assassination?" I asked.

Dad said: "Naturally, I remember that my father remembered to talk to you about this." ”

I felt the temperature of my father's palm, and after a while, I straightened my thoughts and said, "The person who committed the assassination was sent by His Royal Highness the Prince, and he was a person from the 'Seven Don't Kill' Villa, and you did tell me about this. Built has a question for you. ”

Seeing that I was a little slurred, my father stopped his steps and said with a smile: "I am very clever on weekdays, but what happened today?" It's too cold and your teeth are knotted? If you have any doubts, but it doesn't hurt. ”

I rubbed my father on him, looked up at him, and asked, "If you hadn't been assassinated, and the former King of Jin had not been threatened, would you still support King Jin?" ”

Dad was stunned for a moment and began to walk slowly forward, and replied in a low voice, "Not necessarily." "It's like talking to yourself.

I would have liked to confess to my father about everything that had happened to me lately, if he told me that if he had a choice, he would definitely choose the prince, but his answer was not like this. This ambiguous answer made my heart go up and down, and I thought of the game I had set up again, assuming that my father was also a pawn in this game, then was he a black or a white piece? Of course I wish he was white, but what if his attributes are black?

I thought about it carefully, and from the perspective of gang fire, as long as it is a pawn in the game, it can be fought for. However, as a chess player, you need to be cautious, in case the boat capsizes in the gutter.

I was still thinking about it, and my father spoke again, "Why did you suddenly talk about this?" ”

I asked tentatively, "Father, I remember you once said that what you want all your life is to be open-minded. However, you just said that you will not necessarily choose His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, does this contradict what you have asked for all your life? ”

Dad smiled and said: "Built, do you know that 'good birds choose trees to perch, and virtuous ministers choose the lord to serve'?" It is precisely because of the open-mindedness that it will not be necessarily. Everyone in the world thinks that the crown prince is the foundation of the country, and if the country is not right, the country will be in danger, so they oppose the abolition of the prince. But what if the country is not right? ”

"But you also said that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is a mediocre talent, and he may not be the master who cannot be kept......"

Daddy interrupted, "Yes, but not necessarily. ”
