In the Renshu Hall of Dongyang Lingxi Palace, King Wei handed over two handwritten letters to the righteous son who came here to discuss matters, the first rank of the Duke of Weiguo, and the general Xiaoyi. Everyone knows that King Wei's righteous son is called Zhuge Congrong, but few people know that his real name is Liu Ying, and no one knows that his biological parents are Liu Ying, the king of Song Huai, who was ridiculed, and Xiao Yi, the princess of Qi who was abused.
Two letters, one carefully wrapped in a dark red brocade silk embroidered with a patriotic dragon pattern, is a national letter dedicated to the new monarch of Chu. The other letter is not good-looking, with only four small inky black characters on the rough straw paper envelope: "Brother Xiao personally opened." ”
King Wei instructed: "Xiao Ying, the letter of state to the King of Chu, you take it back to the barracks, and send a reliable person in the army to the Zhaohuang Palace in Linjiang for hundreds of miles." Another letter to your uncle, you go to the Dongyang Dart Bureau, let Xing Darttou deliver it in person, there is no need to rush, just be safe. ”
Liu Ying looked at the four words "Brother Xiao's personal enlightenment" written by his father-in-law, and sighed in his heart, it turned out that the "Uncle Xiao" he had called for a long time turned out to be his own uncle.
He knew that the Dongyang Dart Bureau was the business of the Zhuge family, and Xing Dart was also the most reliable person in the Zhuge family in Dongyang City. The two letters that his father-in-law asked him to send, one bright and one dark, it seems that Wei Chu's letter is irrelevant, and the letter to Xiao Xun, the lord of Qi who is far away in Zichuan, Shu State, is the most important thing. Since the Four-Nation Military Alliance returned to the country last year, my father-in-law and my uncle have never exchanged letters, and even when my father-in-law ascended the throne, my uncle has never sent a letter of congratulations.
Although Liu Ying didn't know the content of the letter, he could guess a few points at this time, so he said: "Father-in-law, the restoration of the country will not be long in coming, if you are in a hurry to restore Qi at this time, I am afraid that the gains will outweigh the losses." ”
King Wei sat on the dragon chair and looked directly at Liu Ying, his face was indifferent, and his tone was gentle: "Since you learned about your life experience, even if you don't say it, I can see that the position in your heart has gradually shaken when you led the troops to attack the Song Kingdom. But do you know why your uncle and I insist on recovering the two countries? ”
Liu Ying replied: "Because King Wu of Song destroyed Qi Wei, my father-in-law and uncle are burdened with thousands of lives in a sea of blood. This revenge will not be avenged......"
King Wei shook his head, and Liu Ying stopped answering. King Wei slowly got up and said, "At first, we were indeed here for revenge. After finding your uncle, I met him year after year, and devised a foolproof plan for the restoration of the country. But year after year, year after year, ten years, twenty years have passed, even the grandson of King Wu of Song has grown up, and your uncle and I have gradually calmed down. What about the restoration of the country? Those thousands of lives will never come back after all. If the restoration of the country is just for revenge, it will inevitably be short-sighted. ”
Liu Ying's clear eyes looked directly at King Wei: "My father-in-law and uncle want to use Qi Wei's move to restore the country to the Song Kingdom, and use the troubled times of the Seven Kingdoms to reopen the chess game in Kyushu and dominate the world." ”
King Wei stood with his hands in his hands. "After the death of Zhou, Kyushu was divided for 500 years, and the people never had peace. Only when the world is unified, the living people can be healthy, and the rivers and mountains of Kyushu can be peaceful for generations. ”
Liu Ying frowned and said: "Now that the Song Kingdom is under attack, if the great powers are overthrown, the chaos of the Seven Kingdoms will come!" Troubled times are easy to come, but who can guarantee that the world can be smoothly unified? At that time, Kyushu will be turbulent, and those who will die, not to mention the old Qiwei people of the year? Xiao Ying would rather have Qi Wei restore the country, just to avenge the revenge of the country's destruction, which began with the restoration of the country and ended with the restoration of the country. ”
King Wei let out a long sigh and said, "Do you think that if Qi Wei does not return to the country, the troubled times will not come?" Do you think that without the opportunity of Qi Wei's restoration, the Song Kingdom would be able to survive unscrupulously in the world? Chen, Shu, and Chu will sooner or later find other opportunities to carve up the Song Kingdom. Rather than waiting for the turmoil in Kyushu when we are all dying, it is better to take the opportunity into our own hands now. Xiaoying, you and my father and son work together, I guarantee that Kyushu will be able to unify the world in your lifetime. ”
King Wei saw that Liu Ying was still hesitating, so he said, "Let's go and deliver the letter first!" Even if the world cannot be unified, the restoration of Qi Wei and the two countries can comfort the tens of thousands of lives. ”
Liu Ying took the two letters into his arms, made a courtesy to the king of Wei, and then turned around and left the Renshu Palace. As soon as he stepped out of the palace gate, he turned around and said: "Qi Wei's restoration of the country was done by the child to repay his father-in-law's nurturing grace. If Kyushu is in turmoil to the point of being out of control, when the time comes, I hope that the father-in-law will not obstruct the child's choice. With that, he strode away, leaving King Wei alone in his place.
Before leaving the Lingxi Palace, Liu Ying passed by the Changyuan Palace, wrote another letter, and took it to the Dongyang Dart Bureau together.
When he arrived at the dart game, Liu Ying handed over the letter from his father-in-law to his uncle and the letter he wrote to Shu'er to Xing Darttou, and instructed that one should be sent to the Xiaoyin Chess Club in Zichuan, Shu Kingdom, and the other should be sent to Xuanji Island. The Wei Chu Guoshu was sent to Linjiang by the Wei soldiers.
******
On the isolated island of Xuanji, the sky had just dawned, and Shu'er was already very awake. Instead of lying on the couch without a husband by his side, it is better to get up early, practice swords, and read books. Practice the swordsmanship he taught, and look at the books he reads.
Shu'er glanced at the glass vial on the bookcase by the window, and knew that there was a piece of paper in it that she had written to him: "Wuyi swordsmanship Xiaocheng, Fanjing Yan worship." ”
Calmly, it turns out that you have kept this note all the time, leaving it in the most conspicuous place in your bedroom, and you can see it every day when you open your eyes. You can see it, and I can see it.
It's been more than a month since I've been on the island, and the first snow of winter fell this morning. Shu'er stretched her tendons and practiced her sword in the snow.
After a while, Lin Ying walked slowly with a pot of hot tea, and stood quietly to the side to watch Shu'er practice swords. He knew that Shu'er had the habit of getting up every morning to practice swords, which was a habit that Shu'er had developed when they were still in Chen Guo. He didn't want to wake up early, but business was so busy that if he didn't wake up early, he wouldn't have much time in the day to spend alone with Shu'er.
When Shu'er practiced until she was sweating slightly, she put away her sword and walked towards Lin Ying. "Xiao Ying, you have watched me practice swords all these years, why don't you want to learn a trick and a half seriously? We don't know how long we're going to stay on the island, otherwise, I'll teach you a few sets of swordsmanship? ”
Lin Ying took a sip of tea and smiled absently: "I don't learn." I can never forget anything, but I can't remember any of these sword moves, and even if I do, I can't use them. Besides, Sister Shu'er is good at kung fu, just have you to protect me, so why should I bother to learn? ”
Shu'er said helplessly: "Your Royal Highness the Prince, although you have a talent that you will never forget, but if you don't learn and have no skills, you will only waste your talent." ”
Lin Ying tilted her head and thought for a while, and said, "Didn't you say that the successive island owners of Xuanji Island have written manuscripts?" Successive owners of the island were learned and knowledgeable, and those manuscripts must have been all-encompassing. Otherwise, should I study their manuscripts? You may be able to learn a lot. ”
Shu'er shook his head and said: "The manuscripts of the previous island masters are not passed down, and they are all locked in the ancient tomb of King Zhou. I can't show it to you without permission, not even myself. ”
While the two were talking, a small man hurriedly came over, and after saluting the two, he took out a letter from his sleeve and handed it to Shu'er, saying, "Madam, this is a letter from the young master from Weiguo." ”
Shu'er thanked the little guy, and there was a burst of warmth in her heart, and then a burst of apprehension. Calmly, this letter, is it a greeting or a question?
Lin Ying saw that Shu'er had not opened the letter for a long time, and had already guessed Shu'er's thoughts, so she said: "Brother Rong should be the friend of the landlord and write a letter to greet us." ”
Seeing Lin Ying at her side, Shu'er had a gentle gaze, so she mustered up her courage, and with a twist in her heart, she gently tore open the envelope. It's a big deal, it's just a letter of resignation!
The handwriting on the letter is clear and powerful, and it has nothing to do with the letter of resignation:
Forgive my son and my wife,
Zhan Xin Wang'an!
Shocked to hear that King Chu Mu died, the two sons landed on the island to avoid chaos,
If the isolated island is long, you can enter the tomb of King Zhou.
The handwritten book of the island owners of the past dynasties, the hundred martial arts classics of Kyushu,
All are hidden in the piano room of the tomb, and the stone cabinet is on the left five floors.
Brother Ying can read a hundred years of manuscripts, and Brother Ying can practice a hundred swords,
When the two of them returned to Chu, the civil and military guards left and right.
There is a time to meet, and each one is cherished!
Take it easy
