Extra: The long river of history

Banners hunting, guns and halberds are like forests, there are countless soldiers fighting and fighting around, and the hideous and bloody faces are close in front of you, but they seem to be out of reach. Obviously he was on the battlefield, but he could only hear the cracking of the battle flag in his ears, and he could not hear the sound of thousands of knives and guns fighting each other, nor could he hear the neighing of people shouting horses.

I was so tired that I couldn't move forward......

"Cai'er, you're tired." A kind voice came from behind him.

Looking back, it was my father. My father was smiling warmly at him with his arms outstretched.

"Father......" She instinctively wanted to pounce, but reason stopped her.

She can no longer rely on her father, she is a strong and independent Empress of Shu Han.

"Constellation, stop. I should be proud of you, but I don't want to see you carry such a heavy burden again. You are the bravest sister in the world, but I can't bear how dangerous the long journey ahead is. If you can't stand up, stop. I don't want to see you too soon, you have to be well. I don't know when, Guan Ping also appeared in front of her.

"Brother Ping'er......"

"Constellation." This time it was Zhao Yun who appeared, "I can encourage the soldiers to move forward bravely, but I can't bear to inspire your tired heart anymore." ”

Xiang Xia stood beside Zhao Yun, his face full of pity: "Xingcai, my aunt understands why you are so desperate." You have to become the starlight that guides the direction in the dark night, you need to lead the soldiers of Shu through the crisis, you are the person the young master relies on the most, you are his strongest backing, so you can't fall. But my aunt is worried that this troubled world has made you suffer too much, you have suffered too many traumas, how long can you last...... There have been several queens in history who would venture into battle in person, and perhaps we shouldn't have taught you martial arts in the first place. ”

"No, it's not like that......"

Young Master......

The young master was trembling in the corner, and he was looking at her with a helpless and pitiful gaze: "I'm sorry, I dragged you down. ”

"No, don't say you're sorry. Isn't that what I'm supposed to do? You guys...... Why do you all have to comfort me, are you worried about me? If I didn't do well enough, I must have done badly......" If she did well, how could they persuade her to stop and give up.

The figure of the old man gradually blurred, and Xingcai ran forward to grab them: "Don't go, please don't go." I promise you, I will do better, I will always keep Shu Han! Believe in me, have faith in me, and don't leave me......"

No matter how much she shouted, they were gone.

The earth-shattering sound suddenly sounded in her ears, and countless halberds slashed at her for a while. Her pupils widened, and her tense heartstrings suddenly relaxed at the last moment.

If this is the case, she has no complaints. She did her best, and she did her duty. She misses them too, and is finally reunited.

But a voice suddenly sounded in my heart: "Did I really do my best?" I can obviously continue to fight, I can't leave the young master alone, let alone abandon the people of Shu Han! ”

"No!" The halberd pierced into her body, and her green silk exploded in an instant. She clenched her fists and screamed at the sky.

"Constellation! Constellation! Wake up, wake up! ”

Under the faint candlelight, Liu Chan's face gradually came into her eyes. His face was full of panic and worry, and the hands holding her shoulders trembled slightly.

Xingcai sat up: "Your Majesty, I'm fine, I just had a nightmare." ”

There was a chaotic sound of footsteps in the outer hall, and a group of eunuchs and palace people were hurrying over, saying that they had just heard the queen's shout, asking if there was anything wrong in the palace, or if the queen was sick. Liu Chan said that it was okay, and then flicked his sleeves to make them retreat.

After that, he sat on the edge of the couch and looked at Xingcai quietly: "Is it still the old problem of being haunted by nightmares?" ”

Since the double blow of Zhao Yun's death and summer's death came one after another, Xingcai has suffered from this disease. She often sees her dead relatives in her dreams, and she is always awakened with tears in her eyes. She became melancholy, vulnerable, and suffered from gains and losses. But she is still a tenacious, virtuous, and conscientious queen in front of outsiders.

"Hmm."

Liu Chan stretched out his hand and gently wiped away the tears on her cheeks: "I haven't seen you cry for a long time, why today?" ”

After Liu Chan asked, he realized that today was a special day. It was the death day of General Zhao Yun and his wife, and Xingcai should have dreamed of them.

"Xingcai, I often miss General Zhao Yun. I know that I don't have the heroism of my fathers, let alone the resourcefulness of my father. But Xingcai, one day I will become a strong man like my two uncles and General Zhao Yun. General Zhao Yun also treated me like a mountain, and today I will accompany you to worship him, okay. ”

Xingcai saw that his expression was resolute, and the uneasiness after waking up from the dream seemed to calm down. With pity for him in her heart, she pursed her lips and smiled: "Okay, Your Majesty." ”

Zhao Yun and Xia are in the same tomb, and when Liu Chan and Xingcai arrived, Zhuge Liang had already finished worshipping with his wife and two little dolls.

They turned around and saluted respectfully: "Your Majesty, Queen." ”

Huang Yueying taught on the side: "Huai'er, Guang'er, salute quickly." Zhuge Huai and Zhao Guang did as they were told.

"Father, madam, no need to be polite."

Xingcai stepped forward and hugged the two little dolls, and she took Zhao Guang's little hand with great pity.

"Your Majesty also came to visit Zilong?"

Liu Chan responded: "Today is the death day of General Zhao Yun and Aunt Summer, Xingcai misses them, and so do I." ”

"Your Majesty and the Empress are both lovers." Huang Yueying sighed.

After Liu Chan and Xingcai finished offering incense to them, the four of them stood in a row with their two children, all looking at the tombstone.

Zhuge Liang muttered: "Before I know it, it's been five years. ”

"yes, time flies so fast. Huai'er and Guang'er are now grown up, and I don't know if the little lady is doing well in the other side of the world, she and Zhao Zilong will also worry about us. ”

"Yes, they'll miss us, too."

Zhuge Liang seemed to remember something, glanced sideways at Liu Chan, and said to himself: "Five years...... Life flies by like a white horse, Your Majesty, if I am not there for a day......"

When Liu Chan heard this, his heart panicked: "No, it won't." Father Xiang is a blessed man who will live a long life. ”

Zhuge Liang smiled bitterly: "But I am destined to walk in front of Your Majesty, if I leave, Your Majesty must not panic and worry." Jiang Wei is outside the main body, and the queen is inside the main body, so there will be no big problem if you think about it. ”

At least for a while, there won't be any major problems. But this is not a long-term solution after all, and it still has to be up to His Majesty to grow up on his own.

"You still need to work hard to take care of Your Majesty. From time to time, it is also necessary to supervise His Majesty. ”

Liu Chan understood Zhuge Liang's good intentions, and he promised: "Father Xiang, don't worry, I know that I can't rely on you for a lifetime, and I will definitely work hard for the Shu Han Dynasty laid down by my fathers in the future." ”

"That's fine, I have faith in Your Majesty."

Liu Chan and Xingcai looked at each other and smiled, their fingers clasped together, they would work together.

Zhuge Liang stayed until dark, he stood alone in front of the tomb, the moonlight shining on his face, shining the tears in his eyes into a silvery white.

"Zilong, in the summer, you have been gone for five years. It seems like yesterday when I remembered the time when I fought with you. But my body is no longer good, and we should meet soon. So the past five years have been long or short. Zilong, you have often entrusted me with dreams over the years. Even underground, you can't let go of national affairs. He sighed, "I always remember the two Northern Expeditions you shouted before leaving, and whenever I was awakened by a dream in the middle of the night, these two sounds would ring in my ears. You shouted it desperately, and I tried desperately to make it happen. But I ......."

Speaking of this, Zhuge Liang also shed two lines of tears, "I'm sorry, I couldn't fulfill your last wish." Will you be disappointed, if you apologize, I'll tell you again in person. ”

"When people live to this age, their ambitions really become a little lighter. The only things I can't give up now are Mrs. and Huai'er, as well as Guang'er with you and us. Looking back now, I am really shocked by your sacrificial determination back then. I'm probably never going to learn, and who told me to become sophisticated. ”

Living in the world, becoming a story, how can it not be sophisticated.

Zhuge Liang looked up at the moon and said sadly: "I shouldn't come again next year." Goodbye, Zilong, summer. ”

With the bright moon, Zhuge Liang gradually drifted away on the desolate and desolate path. For example, when he entered the troubled times, he groped for the path of adventure. It will also be like when he withdrew from the troubled times, there was still a long and endless road to the unification of the world.

Zhuge Liang made seven Northern Expeditions, all of which ended in failure, and performed the historical tragedy of "dying before leaving the army, and making the hero cry for a long time".

In 234 AD, Zhuge Liang died of illness. Before dying, he said in front of his sickbed: "I have dedicated my life to Shu Han, and after I go underground, I am not afraid to meet the first emperor, nor am I afraid to meet the generals." I just have no shame to face Zilong...... How can I tell him that the Northern Expedition has failed and that I can no longer take care of Guang'er for him...... I still remember one time, he said to me in a dream, he was not reconciled! He was unwilling to put down his spear, unwilling to see the decline of Shu Han. I'm not reconciled either! Zilong, I'm ashamed ......"

Zhao Guang lost his parents since he was a child, and after Zhuge Liang died, he was brought up by Huang Yueying. He heard about his parents' legendary past from Huang Yueying, so he decided to become a man who stood up to the sky like his father, and if he were not as kind and kind as his mother, he would never marry.

Zhao Guang's biological mother had constant twists and turns when she was pregnant with him, which also caused Zhao Guang to be born weak.

In 263 AD, Zhao Guang fought with the general Jiang Wei against the Wei soldiers, Jiang Wei was defeated and defended the Sword Pavilion, and Zhao Guang died in the battle.

The world does not know when he was born, but some do. Zhao Yun's death day was his birthday, and Zhao Guang lived to be 34 years old.
