Dinner was ready, but Pei Ji'an and Gu Hezhao were not seen for a long time, and when they learned that they had gone to drink together, Duan Qinqin had listened to Huaiyu's instructions and came to see what the two of them had drunk, but only saw Gu and Zhao drinking and pouring themselves alone.

At this moment he couldn't even sleep, and he muttered as if he was talking about something.

Duan Qinqin was overjoyed, he didn't say a word when he was awake, but when he was drunk, would he also say drunken words?

She leaned closer to Gu and Zhao to hear what he was muttering.

I could only hear him say word by word, "I, I am pleased with you." ”

Duan Qinqin was startled, and his cheeks suddenly heated, but he heard the person in the dream continue to whisper, "Sister Yu'er, I am pleased with you......"

It was as if a basin of cold water was poured on Duan Qinqin's head, extinguishing the glimmer of expectation that had just risen in her heart.

She walked away from Gu Youzhao, threw the handkerchief in her hand into the basin, and staggered back.

Duan Qinqin came to the front hall in a daze, and when everyone saw her pale and panicked appearance, they asked worriedly, "Are the two of them okay?" ”

"Nothing."

Duan Qinqin looked at Huaiyu, looked away again, and smiled.

"Both of them are very drunk, and they have fallen asleep by this time, and I guess I won't wake up tonight."

"Brother Zhao has always had a good amount of alcohol, I haven't seen him drunk since I'm so old, how much did I drink today, and he was drunk?"

Duan Qinqin sat down, "Huaiyu don't worry, I have already fed him and drunk sobering soup, just wake up after sleeping." ”

Only then did everyone move their chopsticks to eat the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner.

After the meal, Xiaoliu Panfu and Qiushuang Qiuyue began to light the lamp with all the girls, and a group of people laughed and lit the lamps and candles from the inside out, on the house, in front of the porch, and even under the bed......

Xie Lang took out the chessboard and invited Zhao to have a banquet, Yunxiao sat on the side to watch the chess with great interest, and Huaiyu and a few other girls sat around the fireside and gossiped.

"I don't know what Grandmother is doing now."

Duan Chichi sighed, because of Yunxiao's captivity, their original plan to return to Yundu on the day of the new year was repeatedly postponed, and they couldn't even rush back on Chinese New Year's Eve.

"After a few days, Brother Yun will be better, and after all the affairs of Jielutang are on the right track, Sister Chi will be able to return to Yundu before the Lantern Festival."

Hearing Huaiyu's words, Duan Chichi looked at Huaiyu, "So, don't you go back with me?" ”

Huaiyu smiled, "Yundu Ah Qin and Wang Wu are here, I am very relieved, here in Xiangcheng, although there is a Duan Qingshu, he does not have much hostility towards us for the time being...... I have decided to send troops north after the year, and as for the affairs of the family, I will worry about Sister Chi and Sister Shen too much. ”

"In such a hurry?"

"The soldiers are fast."

The southwest area is mountainous and wide, isolated from outside information.

Yundu was the fifth prince of the palace under Huaiyu, and the imperial court levied miscellaneous taxes, and Yundu not only reduced taxes for the people in Huaiyu's hands, but also vigorously developed agricultural commerce, attracting many businessmen from other countries.

There is a Wu Yin guarding Xiangcheng, and Xiangcheng is rich in products, although there are taxes paid to the imperial court in previous years, but it has not hurt the root, especially in recent months, Huaiyu's Gu family army has been stationed in Changping, and the people of Xiangcheng are also living very stable and assured, and there are many outcasts from the outside world who have been properly settled under Wu Yin's governance.

And Xinxiang is now guarded by Xue Yao, although the people have been brutalized by the Qiang people many times, but everyone is united with the enemy, but there is no rebellion.

These three places are the only paradises in Dayou that have no uprisings among the people.

And along the Xiangcheng all the way to the north, out of the Xiangbei Pass, on the top of Anqing, Jiayao, Yuxing and other places, the people are dissatisfied with the mediocrity of the imperial court, have raised troops to revolt, and now the rebel army everywhere has reached a rare dozens of teams of people, scattered and scattered, the peasant people who revolt are not 100,000 but also 80,000.

Huaiyu holds the Gu family's army, if he keeps shrinking in Xiangcheng, and when the outside is occupied by the soldiers and horses who have risen up, it will be a big loss.

"Are you going with Gu and Zhao too?" Duan Qinqin, who had not spoken, suddenly asked, Huaiyu and Duan Qinqin both looked at her quite funny, this girl, is this enlightened or not?

Huaiyu said: "Where is he an idle person." What, you're not ready to be together? ”

"Of course I have to stay by Huaiyu's side."

Duan Qinqin smiled and said, "I'm not in front of Huaiyu, how can grandmother and Aunt Yun be at ease?" Well? ”

"This was true in the past, but now it's not the same." Duan Chichi said and looked at Zhao Yan who was playing against Xie Lang outside, "At this time, Huaiyu has someone who knows cold and hot, Qinqin you, you are about to fall out of favor......"

Duan Qinqin snorted angrily, these two people were clearly showing off to themselves.

Isn't it just a man, it's like I can't find it!

"Sister Chi's words are not right, no matter when, in Huaiyu's heart, this girl is the first, isn't it? Huaiyu? ”

Huaiyu let her push and said with a smile, "Yes, yes, Qinqin will always be the first in my heart." ”

Duan Qinqin let go of Huaiyu and sat down.

Xiao Yanagi, Pan Fu and others, who went to light candles outside, also gathered, looking at the red stove, everyone talked in pieces for half the night, and finally Duan Qinqin couldn't help but yawn, "I can't keep it at this age, I'm trapped to death." ”

She stood up and said to the crowd, "I'm going back to the house to rest." ”

Duan Chi Chiyin smiled and asked Panfu to go with her.

It happened that Zhao Yan and Xie Lang's chess had also reached the final stage, and Huaiyu made it easy for Duan Chichi to sit down with Yunxiao to watch the two of them play chess.

The two have equal chess skills, and Xie Lang's white son has a slight advantage in the middle game, so in the official stage, Zhao Yan plays more and more meticulously, and Xie Lang does not dare to take it lightly.

There has always been a saying in the Go world that "looking at the official, knowing the strength of chess", which is enough to explain the test of people in the official stage, because the situation at this stage is more subtle, and whoever handles the details well is the final winner.

But the end is not just a matter of carefulness, but also requires a keen sense of flag, complex calculations and delicate order.

A fraction of a millimeter can make a difference.

Zhao Yan has always been meticulous, so after a few rounds, the original advantage of Baizi was actually snatched by Heizi.

Xie Lang smiled and said, "Good chess!"

As he spoke, he made another move.

This hand settled, Zhao Yan took a deep breath, put down the chess pieces in his hand, shook his head and said, "The student lost again." ”

Huaiyu said with a smile on the side, "Although the overall situation is decided, and the victory or defeat is not decided, although it has ended so far, there is still a way to go, why make an assertion earlier?" ”

Xie Lang shook his head, "Huaiyu, Huaiyu, can't you see that he is desperate to lose?" ”

Huaiyu was stunned for a moment, and saw Zhao Yan looking at him with a smile, and then realized that he wanted to finish this game of chess as soon as possible.

In front of Duan Qingshu during the day, he also deliberately mentioned that he wanted to go to East Street with him to see the lights.

Huaiyu smiled and said, "You can finish this game completely." ”

Before Zhao Yan could answer, Yunxiao and Duan Chichi on the side laughed, and Yunxiao said, "Absent-minded, distracted, where can I still play chess?" Huaiyu, take him away quickly. ”

This is the same as what Xie Lang said.

Huaiyu and Xie Lang looked at Yunxiao together, and Yunxiao looked confused.
