In Jingxiang, Pang Shanmin's business time is still short, and he is unable to change the situation in the north, if the northern Guandu continues to follow the trend of history unchanged, there will be no more than a year, and the crying uncle of the Han Dynasty will be defeated by Cao Cao and flee Jingxiang.

Pang Shanmin knew in his heart that in this era, what righteousness represented, Liu Bei, a Han clan of unknown origin, with his unique personal charm and outstanding performance under tears, it is not difficult to gain a foothold in Jingxiang, and whether his classmates will support him as much as they do now, Pang Shanmin is not completely sure.

It is human instinct for good birds to choose trees and perch, virtuous ministers to choose the lord and do things, and it is human instinct to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages, so Pang Shanmin made up his mind that he must build a solid foundation and sit firmly in Jingnan before Liu Bei comes to Jingzhou.

Zhuge Liang saw that Pang Shanmin had made up his mind, and knew that it was useless to persuade again, so he had to sigh silently, and the two walked side by side, all the way without a word, to the mouth of Zhugu Valley, Zhuge Liang turned over and dismounted, and said to Pang Shanmin: "Brother, sister-in-law, you go and persuade yourself!" ”

After speaking, Zhuge Liang turned around with a heavy heart, and went straight to find Pang Tong and the others, for Zhuge Liang's silent protest, Pang Shanmin had to smile silently.

Back in the bamboo building, the sky had already darkened, and when he came to the door, Pang Shanmin hesitated for a long time and pushed the door in.

"Childe is back?" Diao Chan calmly put the brush in his hand on the shelf, rubbed his eyes, and smiled at Pang Shanmin: "I am fascinated by writing, and I have forgotten the time." ”

Pang Shanmin nodded, Diao Chan has a light temperament, since he inquired about "The Romance of the Gods", he wrote it alone, but what Pang Shanmin didn't expect was that this woman was smart, and she just listened to it on the way to Changsha, and retold this work.

Seeing that Pang Shanmin was silent, Diao Chan quickly noticed Pang Shanmin's abnormality, and smiled softly at Pang Shanmin: "Childe has something on his mind? ”

Pang Shanmin bit his lip, sighed softly, and smiled bitterly: "I want to go to Xudu." ”

Diao Chan's expression changed slightly, and the atmosphere between the two quickly became silent and weird.

"Can you not go?"

After a long time, Diao Chan smiled bitterly and said to Pang Shanmin: "Perhaps, the concubine is not qualified to say this, but ...... Is it really so important for you men to dominate the world? ”

"You see that?" Pang Shanmin was slightly moved, and seeing Diao Chan nodded, Pang Shanmin said: "In troubled times, if you don't fight, you will lose what you have learned in your chest, maybe the road ahead is long and dry, but if you don't do it, wouldn't it be extremely interesting to live for a hundred years?" ”

Seeing that Diao Chan was preoccupied, Pang Shanmin sighed and said: "And the enemies of the Lu family are now in a high position, except for the Prime Minister Cao, and the uncle of the Han Emperor, I also have to guard against it, I want to live with you and Ling'er, but will these people let us go?" That's why I have to go to the Northland, both for you and for me. ”

Foe?

Diao Chan smiled bitterly: "The first husband used to kill people like hemp, if you settle the feud, this account will never be calculated, the concubine only hopes that you and Ling'er can be safe, but she doesn't want such a simple matter, for the concubine, it has become a luxury." ”

"It is not a luxury, but I will return safely."

Pang Shanmin's tone was categorical, Diao Chan was stunned when he heard this, and looked at the handsome scholar in front of him blankly, when Pang Shanmin said this, no matter how imposing he was, it was no different from the Wen Hou that day, which made Diao Chan's heart inevitably have a little wave.

"I'm tired."

After Diao Chan finished speaking, Pang Shanmin's expression became more and more bitter, and even at the moment when he saw Diao Chan's gloom, Pang Shanmin thought about whether he wanted to give up his plan to compete for the world, maybe the kind of life Diao Chan was looking forward to, maybe it would also be suitable for him, but this absurd idea was just a flash, and it was ruthlessly thrown away by Pang Shanmin.

Besides, the responsibility on Pang Shanmin's shoulders now is not only Diao Chan alone, but also the future of the academy classmates and the future of the Pang family.

Can't have it both ways?

Thinking of this, Pang Shanmin gritted his teeth, the gloomy look on his face was swept away, and he said to Diao Chan: "You wait for me!" Wait for me to return from the Northlands! ”

"That's what Feng Xian said when he was leaving." Diao Chan looked miserable and said to Pang Shanmin: "Maybe the concubine is really that ominous person, the will of heaven is like this, no matter how I struggle, it will be in vain." ”

"I'm not Wenhou, I'm Pang Shanmin!" Pang Shanmin shook his head with a resolute expression, "Don't mention such words from an ominous person in the future, you are my future wife, and you will walk through a long life hand in hand with me in the future." ”

"Hold the hand of the son, grow old with the son...... It's a very luxurious thing. ”

Seeing that Diao Chan still hadn't recovered from his sadness, Pang Shanmin came to Diao Chan's side, grabbed Diao Chan's soft twinkle, held it in his hand, and smiled confidently: "Look, it's not very difficult to hold the son's hand." In my opinion, things are only about doing or not doing, Xu Du and I are not Longtan Tiger's Den, in the eyes of Cao Cao, maybe only when I am a businessman, maybe it's not enough! “

"You...... Let go. Diao Chan's face was slightly red, since Lu Bu's death, Diao Chan has never had such close contact with any man, and now the slender hand is held by Pang Shanmin, Diao Chan can no longer care about arguing with Pang Shanmin about going to Xudu, Chu Chu looked at Pang Shanmin pitifully, and his tone was anxious.

"I'm just telling you, it's not something to be hoped for......"

Pang Shanmin couldn't stand Diao Chan's gaze, and the hand that grabbed Diao Chan loosened slightly, and the atmosphere in the room was a little ambiguous for a while, Pang Shanmin wanted to go all out, take out the spirit of the old man, and be more intimate with Diao Chan, but remembering the oath with Diao Chan when he was in Pangjiazhuang that day, Pang Shanmin's fiery mood cooled down a little.

"A year, it's really a long time...... Pang Shanmin laughed at himself, let go of his hand and said: "You should believe that I am, I will do what I should do, for the sake of the family, for the sake of friends, and for you and Ling'er to live a life where you and Ling'er are no longer frightened in the future, I have to go." ”

"That'...... The concubine believes in you once, but you have to remember that if you don't come back, the concubine will have to live that lonely and boring life with Ling'er again. Diao Chan lowered his head and sighed lightly: "Promise me that you must come back." ”

"Rest assured, I've always walked the talk." Pang Shanmin nodded without hesitation, smiled confidently, and said: "I will go back quickly, you just need to wait here, in less than a year, I can get what I want, this long-cherished wish and the future of the world, are the same important things in my heart!" ”
