"Bang Bang!"

Not far away, there was a sudden burst of unhurried applause.

Xiao Chen turned his head to look and saw an old man in sackcloth and cloth shoes walking from a distance.

"On the day of the wedding, the prince does not celebrate with the living, but shares the joy with the dead.

Looking at the old man in front of him, Xiao Chen was slightly startled, he didn't expect that the old man in front of him was Zhuge Hou.

Xiao Chen is no stranger to the world-famous Zhuge Hou, but in the final analysis, this is also the first time Xiao Chen has met Zhuge Hou.

This old man, known as Xiaotianji, did not have the so-called strange appearance as expected, but looked mediocre, and in every move, he was like an old man farming in the mountains, that is, he was left behind in the crowd, and he was the kind of ordinary that could not be found at a glance, but it was the kind and warm smile on the old man's face that made Xiao Chen deeply impressed.

In general, the old man seems to be harmless to humans and animals.

But Xiao Chen knew in his heart that the old man in front of him was not so charitable as he appeared.

At least judging from the old man's actions towards Li Luo, the old man's mind is enough to be called ruthless.

In the world, I am afraid that it is difficult to find a person who kills his friends for his own interests, and then turns against his incomparably close son.

Although he was full of caution about Zhuge Hou in his heart, Xiao Chen still smiled lightly, arched his hand slightly at Zhuge Hou and said:

"Mr. is in Yong'an, although I have heard of it, but I have no choice but to be entangled in affairs recently, and I hope that Mr. will forgive me for the inconsiderate hospitality."

Zhuge Hou smiled and waved his hand and said: "The prince doesn't have to see outside, today is a happy day for the prince, naturally he is busy, and the old man is here to Yong'an, and he is already satisfied to see the prince." ”

Xiao Chen smiled and asked, "At this moment, a celebration is being held in the city, why don't you go and enjoy it?" ”

"Old!" Zhuge Hou sighed and said: "When people are old, they naturally don't have the urge to get together when they were young, but it is the mountains and rivers that can make the old man feel at ease." ”

Xiao Chen smiled faintly when he heard this, and suddenly looked at Zhuge Hou with deep meaning and said, "But sir, it seems that you are still very enthusiastic about the affairs of the court." ”

Zhuge Hou was stunned for a moment, and met Xiao Chen's meaningful gaze.

The two looked at each other without saying a word for a while, Zhuge Hou naturally understood the question in Xiao Chen's words, but how to answer, I'm afraid Zhuge Hou himself hadn't thought about it.

After a moment of silence, Zhuge Hou shook his head and sighed lightly: "I know that the prince and An'er are good friends. The old man's choice to ally with Xia Guo is contrary to human feelings, but the prince, born in the world, many things are often involuntary. ”

Xiao Chen shook his head and said, "I don't understand." ”

Zhuge Hou chuckled: "You are still young now, and you naturally don't understand many things. When you experience a little more, you will understand that the so-called family, love, and friendship are simply worthless in front of certain things. ”

"Something?" Xiao Chen frowned. "Do you mean interests?" ”

Zhuge Hou smiled and did not speak.

Xiao Chen shook his head and said, "Perhaps, this is the reason why I can't reach the realm of Mr. in my life." ”

Zhuge Hou sighed with emotion: "A life is too long, it's too early for you to say this now." ”

The two of them found a stone to sit down next to Zuiyang Creek.

Winter has passed quietly, the footsteps of spring have come, the ice on Zuiyang Creek has melted, the stream is flowing into the distance, not far away, there is already grass springing up.

After a moment of silence, it was Zhuge Hou who broke the silence and said, "I don't know what the prince's attitude towards Qianguo and Bai Qi will be in the future?" ”

Xiao Chen shook his head and said, "Don't hide it, sir, I've always taken one step at a time, and I really haven't thought about what to do in the future." ”

Zhuge Hou nodded and said, "It's a good thing to have no worries in your heart, but it's not good for you." People say that people have no long-term worries, there must be near-term worries, the prince established Huazhou, not to mention the far, it is destined to be Bai Qi's trouble, and then the Qianguo, the prince and the Qianguo also have a lot of grievances, if you don't deal with it early, I am afraid that you will hurt yourself and others in the future. ”

Although Xiao Chen is wary of Zhuge Hou, but when it comes to this, Xiao Chen also wants to hear Zhuge Hou's advice on Yong'an today.

"I don't know sir, what do you think of the situation in Huazhou today?" Xiao Chen asked softly.

Zhuge Hou shook his head and said: "The old man lives in the deep palace, if the situation in the Xia Kingdom can be discussed, but in Huazhou, the old man really doesn't know much about it, and he doesn't dare to say anything." ”

Xiao Chen chuckled and said: "No matter how much Mr. knows, even if it is, even if it is a lie, if it can be said from Mr. 's mouth, it must have some truth." ”

With a dumb smile, Zhuge Hou looked at Xiao Chen: "Dare to ask the prince, what do you want to know?" ”

Xiao Chen said in a deep voice: "Don't you dare to say that people must have near-term worries without far-sightedness, I implore Mr. for guidance, what is Huazhou's near-term worries." ”

Hearing this, Zhuge Hou pointed straight in the direction of Wei State's Kyoto and said, "Wei State Bai Qi is the biggest worry in Huazhou. ”

After a pause, Zhuge Hou said again: "Of course, I think this answer, the prince himself must also understand it." But how to solve it, the prince probably hasn't thought about it deeply, right? ”

Xiao Chen nodded: "What Mr. said is very true, Bai Qi once asked me to give up Huazhou, and he also said that after unifying the Wei State, he could still let me be stationed in Yong'an, but I didn't agree." ”

Zhuge Hou muttered: "I am afraid that I will not be able to give away the foundation that I have worked so hard to lay to others, and I am afraid that I will not be able to do it by anyone." ”

Xiao Chen shook his head: "No, it's just that I can't trust him." ”

Looking at Xiao Chen's serious appearance in front of him, Zhuge Hou couldn't help but be slightly stunned.

Obviously, Xiao Chen's answer was a bit unexpected by him.

After a while, Zhuge Hou took a deep breath and said: "But the prince and Bai Qi can't coexist after all, the so-called one mountain can't tolerate two tigers, in the future, the prince and Bai Qi will definitely have a battle, since they want to fight, why don't they take advantage of it?" ”

"Can you beat it?" Xiao Chen raised his head and asked, and then Xiao Chen shook his head lightly and said: "Even if you can fight, the future Wei State is destined to be a mess, how many people will be displaced, and how many people will be miserable?" At that time, was the Wei State still the Wei State? ”

Zhuge Hou said: "As the saying goes, if it is not broken, how many powerful dynasties have experienced the stage that the prince said?" As long as you rule properly in the future, you can restore the prosperity of the past, Lord Wang, the old man has to say to you, you are too forward-looking. ”

Xiao Chen nodded and said, "I'm changing, but if a person's temperament needs to change, it will take some time, won't it?" ”

Zhuge Hou smiled faintly and said softly: "I dare to conclude that when the day comes, the future Wei State will definitely win the prince." ”

Xiao Chen was surprised: "Why? ”

Zhuge Hou got up and said with a faint smile: "The benevolent are invincible!" ”

Taking a deep look at the tomb next to Zuiyang Creek, Zhuge Hou smiled meaningfully and walked away.

Some people died, but not completely......
