The king and queen of Shu left the Chixia Palace, and Zhuge said: "Xiaorong, you take advantage of the dawn to take the Yan family sisters and brothers to go around the Shu Palace, and by the way, let the palace people arrange a place for them to live." It's rare that Brother Wu is no longer entangled with me today, I finally got free and wanted to play a game of chess with your Uncle Xiao. ”

Qing Yu volunteered: "Lord, in the past three years, you have taken our two brothers to many places, let's take the lord to see Yihui Palace today, okay?" ”

Shu'er smiled: "Brother Qingyu, Brother Yifeng, you don't have to call me 'lord' anymore. The appointment to sacrifice the sword has been made, and your highnesses don't want this sword anymore, and I don't need you to be a guard anymore. Just call me 'Miss Yan'. ”

Yi Feng muttered "Miss Yan", but scratched his head and said, "I'm not used to it!" It's better to be called 'Lord'. Qing Yu also nodded.

Shu'er had no choice but to leave the Chixia Hall with them.

For a time, the hall was empty, and only Zhuge and Xiao Xun remained. With the sound of the waterfall rushing down in the distance, the two reopened a new chess game.

Xiao Xun held the white son, using Qi Baiyu. Zhuge escaped to hold the sunspot, using diamond jade.

The two of them staggered and talked about everything.

Xiao Xun asked, "I don't know what Brother Zhuge plans for Xiao Rong's marriage?" Although Xiao Xun knew that Zhuge Escape's real name was "Jiang Ji", he was still used to calling him a pseudonym on the rivers and lakes like everyone else.

Zhuge said: "Since Xiao Rong wants to divide the wedding banquet between the four ** alliances and the two, the wedding banquet is better to wait until the full moon of the Mid-Autumn Festival." ”

Xiao Xun nodded and said, "When the moon is full, we will become husband and wife." It's a good intention. Brother Zhuge , your upbringing of Xiaorong is even better than that of ordinary people's biological fathers. Xiao Rong has you as a father-in-law, which is a blessing that he has cultivated for several lifetimes. ”

Zhuge shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Brother Xiao has won the award." In fact, I am very strict with Xiaorong, he has suffered a lot more than ordinary children. And this hardship will be more and more, maybe for a lifetime, it will never end. I am not a good father. If he were my own son, I am afraid that I would not bear to let him get into such a muddy water. You see King Sheng of Chu State, on the eve of the disaster of the Seven Kings, he sent his wife and children out of Chu State, for fear that they would have a chance in the war. But what about me? All I know is to push Xiaorong into the fire pit and send it to the crest of the wave. Even his life's events were used by us to make a Qi Wei marriage alliance. If he hadn't opened his mouth to argue for himself, I was afraid that the three of us self-righteous elders would have mixed the two children's flowers into the smoke of a war of the Four ** Alliance. ”

Xiao Xun said: "Brother Zhuge doesn't have to blame himself too much. Although I don't have any children, I know that parents in each family care for their children, but in different ways. Xiaorong was brought up by you since he was a child, and traveled around the world with you, and the relationship between your father and son is no longer a blood relationship that can be measured and defined. He told me that you two are fathers and brothers, teachers and friends. Such feelings are really enviable. You have expectations for Xiao Rong, so you pushed him to the fire pit to temper and sharpen on the crest of the waves. He certainly understands your hard work and will not let you down. ”

Zhuge Dunji let out a long sigh, looked at the gradually dark sky outside the window, and whispered: "Brother Xiao, what you and I plan and succeed will last forever, and if we fail, we will be extremely vicious." This is a gamble that you and I can't control, and even ourselves are pawns here. The Four ** Alliance, Qi Wei's restoration of the country, is just the beginning. Sometimes, I really can't bear it. I'd rather Xiao Rong be able to travel around the world with his beloved woman and stand by and watch, rather than let him ...... Like the two of us, I was lonely and widowed. ”

Xiao Xun rubbed the Qi Baiyu chess piece in his hand, looked directly at Zhuge Escape, and said: "Brother Zhuge , when we decided to play this game of chess, we were no longer qualified to enjoy our old age, and we were not qualified to continue our descendants. If we succeed, we will not be famous for eternity, and if we fail, we will not be able to pay for the sins we have created. As far as Xiao Rong knew, he was already standing by and watching. In fact, the four-** alliance has not been completed, and it is still too late to regret it. ”

Zhuge Retreat put down a jet-black diamond chess piece, and his voice was solemn and low: "There is no regret about the son." ”

Xiao Xun put down a pure white Qi white jade chess piece and said, "If you don't go against the world, how can you become an eternal foundation?" You and I are both living dead people who crawled out of the bones of Dan's blood, so why do you want ordinary people to understand? In this world, Kyushu chess may be able to reopen a game in just a few generations. ”

The king of Shu and the queen invited everyone to have dinner together, with complete dishes and meat and vegetarian dishes. Dongfang Chou grew up in the gunsmoke-filled Chu State since he was a child, and even the meals in the Shengwang Mansion were regulated like the diet in the army, so he naturally had never experienced brocade clothes and jade food. After dinner, he ate a lot of fat, and said to Shu'er and Zhuge calmly with a smile: "Sister Yan, Brother Rong, you are really a great nobleman. If I didn't come to Shu Palace with you, how could I taste the delicacies of the mountains and seas at the palace dinner in my life? ”

Shu'er smiled: "Don't you still want to send a letter to Queen Chen?" When the time comes, you can stay in Jinyang Palace, and you will not stop eating the dining room of Chen Palace. ”

Dongfang shou's eyes widened, rubbed his stomach and said: "My stomach is tolerant of all rivers, but I have to judge whether the things in the Yihui Palace of the Shu Kingdom are delicious, or the things in the Jinyang Palace of the Chen Kingdom are delicious." ”

Zhuge calmly patted Dongfang's shoulder and encouraged: "Little Dongfang, the violinist who can't eat must not be a good swordsman." You just swell all the way down! ”

When a few people laughed, Qing Yu and Yi Feng had already led them into the vacant Lanyun Pavilion. There are a few guest rooms in the Lanyun Pavilion, which are exactly divided between the three guards of Dongfang Xuan and the Shengwang Mansion.

Qing Yu and Yi Feng took Shu'er and Zhuge calmly to Guanzhuxuan, which is the place where Zhuge calmly and Zhuge retreated every time they came to Yihui Palace to live. There is a small bamboo forest in Guanzhu Xuan, and there is a secluded guest room in the depths of the bamboo forest, which is separated from the small bamboo forest by the room where Zhuge calmly and Zhuge escaped, and the palace people have cleaned it up and just let Shu'er live.

After Qingyu and Yifeng said goodbye, Zhuge calmly and Shu'er saw that Zhuge had escaped and did not come back, knowing that he had gone to play chess with Xiao Xun after dinner, so the two left Guanzhuxuan hand in hand, and went to the highest place of Yihui Palace, the bluestone platform of Renxuan Palace, to enjoy the stars and talk heart-to-heart.

The two sat on the ground in the center of the bluestone platform, Zhuge calmly and gently took Shu'er into his arms, and asked, "Shu'er, do you remember King Zhou Le's "Luohua Worry-free"? ”

Shu'er nodded, "Yes." One of my favorite sentences is, 'The north is Yiwei Song, there is heavy snow like jade in winter, Bashu in the south, and the sky is full of stars in summer.'" "Let's look at the stars in the Shu Palace tonight, maybe it won't be long before we recover the homeland of the country, and then go to the Lingxi Palace in Dongyang, cook wine and enjoy the snow." ”

Zhuge calmly put his face between Shu'er's hair, sniffed the faint cool incense, and said intoxicatedly: "What I like the most is, 'Holding the son Changle, I will never worry about it again.'"
