Chapter 61, the lights of ten thousand homes
The guest rooms of Chu Mansion are very comfortable, the inner room is a bedroom, and in addition to the daily furniture ornaments, the careful designer also uses a screen to separate a small study room for guests to write.
Zhou Tianyi stood in front of the table, and drew a map of Yuyan, compared to the sketch drawn in the Qianfeng Building for memory, the one in front of him is more detailed, the mountains and rivers landforms, roads and small paths, the meridians are clear, and after the painting, he also made various annotations on it, not only the epidemic is clearly organized, but even the Feng clan, the force that gradually formed an encirclement of Xiangcheng, is also clear at a glance.
Yuyan has a special significance for the three kingdoms in the land of Zhuhua today, this is the only region that spans the three countries, and after the division of Zhuhua, the war continued, and it was also the area most affected by the war, and it was turbulent. After the Sifang annexed Bakun, half of the land in Yuyan in the old Zhuhua period fell into the hands of the Sifang, including the Void Sea.
The so-called Void Sea, is a big lake in the center of Yuyan, because of its big water and boundlessness, it was named "Void Sea" by the founding emperor of Xuanyuan's family, there are five small islands above the Void Sea, respectively, Daiyu, Yuanqiao, Fanghu, Yingzhou and Penglai, the five islands are connected in a ring, and the middle is the temple of Xuanyuan's family.
Even though the old Zhuhua had been divided, the people who had lived in this land for generations still considered themselves to be the descendants of Zhuhua, and the new ruler claimed to be the descendants of the Xuanyuan clan, so every sixty years, even at the most intense moment of the war, several rival royal families would hold up their cards and ceasing, and go to the Xuanyuan clan temple to worship their ancestors, so as to consolidate the legitimacy of their own ruling bloodline.
Now, although the Void Sea is in the territory of the four directions, the problem of jurisdiction has been left from the period of the first emperor, and the five watches and the nine winds are even more eye-catching to this lake.
Looking at the map of Yuyan, Zhou Tianyi tapped his forehead and smiled bitterly, as long as you think about how to fight during the war, all kinds of problems after the war are obliquely raised, he is the person who knows this place best, but his second brother of the emperor is unwilling to discuss with him, and their brothers work together, which can obviously make the Quartet better.
There was a sound of "knock knock" outside the door, it was three o'clock now, someone knocked on the door, listening to this rhythm is not like Qin Song or Shen Buwen, Zhou Tianyi was puzzled, got up and pulled the latch to open the door, and it was Chu Yan who was standing outside.
"The second prince of Chu is in a hurry to find this king at this time?" Zhou Tianyi felt that Chu Yan was not a person who had nothing to do, so he turned sideways and made a way, "Please come in." โ
"No, I don't have to." Seeing that King Zhao was in a position to turn around and go inside, Chu Yan hurriedly refused, "Disturb Your Highness's rest, actually...... It's not an urgent matter, either. He bit his lip, his eyes looking at the ground from time to time, as if hesitating.
Zhou Tianyi was silent, waiting for him to continue.
As if having made up his mind, Chu Yan took out a small peach wood card from his cuff and handed it to Zhou Tianyi with both hands, "Please Your Highness be sure to bring this thing with you in the near future." โ
The peach wood card is the Chu family crest surrounded by seven stars, compared to Qin Song's slender peach hairpin, the family crest on this brand is more vivid and detailed, Zhou Tianyi was suspicious of this, although he took the wooden card, he still blurted out: "What is this?" โ
"For evil spirits, Your Highness will take it." Chu Yan said vaguely, even if you want to explain the way of arithmetic, it is very difficult, but his kind of "evil spirit" rhetoric may be useful for Qin Song, but it is not ...... for Zhou Tianyi Raising his eyes to last week's shining sharp gaze, Chu Yan knew that it was not easy to fool this time, and he really didn't know how to explain it, so he had to use Qin Song as a cover, "Your Highness takes it, even if it's for my cousin, I won't harm you." โ
Zhou Tianyi was keen, Chu Yan must have something unspeakable to hide, and when he contacted the three generations of the Chu family who were different at the dinner table, he asked a little unconvinced, "Second Prince Chu, is it really okay?" "The big family has its own story, and he, an outsider, shouldn't have intervened, but Chu Yan came here to ask for help at this time, and they have only known each other for a few days, what can make Chu Yan ask him, a "stranger", for help?
"It's all a trivial matter, Your Highness doesn't have to worry about it." Chu Yan sighed lightly, but in the end he didn't say anything, and bowed and retired.
The matter of the Chu family is difficult to explain.
Zhou Tianyi naturally didn't want to ask about the things that the parties didn't want to say, thinking about talking to Qin Song tomorrow, or writing a letter to Qin Feng to explore the Chu family's situation later. Closing the door, he turned his back and picked up the mahogany sign, and looked at it several times under the lamp, but he didn't see anything special about it.
But Chu Yan, whether it is his personality or appearance, will make people think about his behavior in the direction of trusting him, and Zhou Tianyi is no exception. He didn't care about putting the mahogany card in his pocket and didn't think much about it.
Disturbed by Chu Yan like this, Zhou Tianyi had no intention of thinking about Feng's affairs anymore, and even had no intention of replying to the letters sent from all over the country, Chu's mansion was in the mountains, he opened the back window, leaned obliquely against the window, and watched the lights of thousands of homes under the mountain.
He had read about the situation of Xiangcheng in the past, Xiangcheng was one of the old Yuyan cities, which existed in ancient times and has always been the center of Yuyan. And his father told him that during the war between the Quartet and the Bakun, Xiangcheng was almost razed to the ground, and in the following years, the national strength of the Quartet was tight, and he was unable to compensate for the loss of Xiangcheng, so he has been put aside and left it alone, but miraculously, Xiangcheng recovered by itself.
This is the only city that was completely rebuilt by the local people themselves after the war, and the father was very happy at that time, so he opened the door to Xiangcheng and helped rebuild it on the original basis. What Zhou Tianyi sees now is the rebuilt New Xiangcheng.
It's not too early to say it's early, it's not too late to say it's late, but Xiangcheng under the mountain is brightly lit, he is holding his head and staring blankly, a little trance, and has been running against the current, how long has it been since he watched such a night so calmly?
After the death of his father, he couldn't even have a sad time on the battlefield, and when he really returned to Beijing and Zhou, there was not much real feeling left of his father's death, and he was more sad about the death of the king in his heart.
Does he like his father? There is no doubt that he likes it, but when he grows up, the proportion of monarchs and ministers in his heart is greater, and "monarchs, ministers" are followed by "fathers, sons".
He suddenly understood why his father loved his mother so much, even if it was just in his opinion, the mother concubine would always be just his mother, and she had no other status to suppress on the top.
This truth that is different from others, and the ease of getting along, no one has given him in the past except for his mother and two brothers, as for now...... He glanced sideways at Qin Song's room where the lights had been turned offโnot only was it easy to be with her, but it was also a unique bit of fun.
"Huh?" He fixed his eyes and looked carefully, the night vision of people who practice martial arts is slightly better than that of ordinary people, and when he saw the "thing" of the window clearly, he suddenly laughed, Qin Song was also holding his head and losing his mind at the bottom of the mountain, and the staggered angle between the two rooms made it impossible for her to find his voyeurism.
Recently, there have been too many things and all of them are close together, they don't seem to have stopped for a moment, Yuyan is not as good as Jingzhou, and he can be like a fish in water if he has a tight layout in a small Jingzhou, and Yuyan has too many unknowns, and his spirit can't relax at any time.
Because of this, Lian Qin Song's attitude towards him changed...... He himself has even ignored the past and become accustomed to it. How strong Qin Song's precaution against others was, he had understood it when he was in Jingzhou, and he also knew that she still didn't fully believe him, but when she returned from Qian's pharmacy at night that day, she actually let herself sleep half-asleep beside him.
Although there was an accident in the Yongan Inn, she also fell asleep beside him, didn't she believe him more, what was it?
There is also the jade jade bracelet he gave her before the state banquet, she has not taken it off since then, he just thought that the bracelet was good-looking when he was on the black market, and when he gave everything out, he realized that the jade bracelet that was first and last was actually a gift of love, symbolizing happiness.
Qin Song is a woman, it is impossible not to know, she did not resist, she really accepted it.
Wang Huangyi reminded him again that even if she came to Qin Song with her sincerity, she would not believe it.
But she changed, but she believed, because of him.
"Heh, it's a long time coming."
After glancing at Qin Song's pleasant side face, Zhou Tianyi closed the window, his smile deepened, he was in a good mood, and he glanced at the letters that were about to pile up on the table, and he had no feeling of boredom, he actually had the urge to work hard and deal with it all tonight.
-
Zhou Tianyi forgot when he fell asleep, and when he got up the next morning, his shoulders and wrists were very sore. Thinking that Qin Song never put today's things into tomorrow, he silently praised this good habit in his heart.
After instructing Guang Han to sort and send all the letters he wrote last night, Zhou Tianyi walked out of the room and wanted to talk to Chu Yan again.
He remembered last night that the current Xiangcheng was rebuilt more than 20 years ago, but the appearance of the Chu Mansion does not look like a new house in the past twenty or thirty years, this house is a little too mysterious.
It is rumored that the Shen family and the Chu family of the 12th family of Zhuhua are hidden in Yuyan, and this time when he went to Yuyan, he saw Shen Suyu, a pharmacist with miraculous medicine, Shen Buwen, a doctor who avoided talking about the Shen family and had medical skills, and the flamboyant but low-key Chu family, could it be ......
Zhou Tianyi couldn't help but think about it.
To this day, the traces of the 12th family of Zhuhua are almost impossible to detect except for the Weilong Wang family. These twelve surnames are all over Zhuhua, and the power of these twelve surnames is also everywhere, there is the Chu clan in Xiangcheng, in fact, in some big cities in neighboring countries, there are also big clans that claim to be the Chu clan, and the name of the family is not recognized by their own clan, in fact, there is no evidence at all.
Sometimes, he admired the calculations of the last emperor of the old Zhuhua.
How prosperous and prosperous Zhuhua was at the time of unity, but the people who lived in this land, and now the people who have experienced many years of war, there is no one who does not look forward to such a complete and harmonious country.
Although Zhuhua died, the hidden world of the "Twelve Families" became a hope buried in people's hearts, as if as long as the twelve families were found, the Lord of this world would come, and this land would not be torn apart, let alone war.
Amusing!
The living people who live today are actually affected by the souls of the dead who died 300 years ago!
History has long turned the page in Zhuhua, and Zhou Tianyi has always thought so.
