Pingnan City, on the shore of Baisha Lake.

A few wisps of light breeze willows smiled, and the blue water swam to the bottom of the lake to escape.

In a lonely boat in the middle of the lake, someone is painting.

In order not to disturb the cleanliness of the guests, Lao Zhouzi squatted on the bow of the boat and fished quietly.

Some people fish for a little fun, but Lao Zhouzi fishes for his life.

Kan Huazi, who had returned from Ziyang City, came to Baisha Lake again.

After getting on the fishing boat a few times, Kan Huazi became Lao Zhouzi's old customer.

Lao Zhouzi couldn't understand what was so peculiar about the scenery in the lake that this guest could often visit his fishing boat.

If he doesn't understand it, he doesn't want to, after all, this guest never thought much about it when he gave money.

Baisha Lake is a place where Yuan Xi and Lu Guanju often come.

Kan Huazi, who was painting in the cabin, looked through the window of the cabin at the two people sitting side by side on the lakeside.

Sighing secretly, Kan Huazi shook his head, where did the pair of young girls by the lake come from so many words, sitting there and chatting endlessly.

Every time he saw Lu Guanju leaning lightly on the man's shoulder, Kan Huazi felt a heartache.

Why is she Lu Guanju so ignorant of inspection? He really wanted to go up and kick that kid aside, and use his broad chest to warm Lu Guanju's delicate body.

If it weren't for the fact that the kid was the key person in his plan, Kan Huazi would really want to know how to beat the bird for a while.

After the trip to Ziyang City, Kan Huazi could be sure that his plan would soon be implemented.

Ning Kai, who was in contact with him, also told him another important news, that there were going to be troops near Liangcheng.

After returning from Ziyang City, Kan Huazi sent a secret letter to He Xiangfeng, and he knew that He Xiangfeng wanted to convince King Jiangling that Bazhou was so peaceful, but there was nothing convincing.

In order not to let Yuan Xi find out, Kan Huazi chose to be in the middle of the lake and watched the two from afar.

In fact, there is no need for him to stare at Yuan Xi at all.

Kan Huazi didn't come for Yuan Xi, the trip to Bazhou, Lu Guanju was his unexpected joy, and he even felt that if Lu Guanju could commit to him, what if he broke his skills?

Kan Huazi didn't feel that he had to serve adults for a lifetime, and the future struggle for world domination would only be completed by relying on the Jin Ge Iron Horse and the Southern and Northern Wars.

He is a painter, but he doesn't have the hobby of commanding thousands of troops.

He just wanted to find a horse that he liked the most.

Looking up, Kan Huazi's pen shook, and a drop of ink dripped onto the rice paper, and the man's face became a smudge.

He painted a picture of the two people enjoying the lake, but the man in the painting was replaced by himself.

It was that kid who held Lu Guanju's hand again, which made Kan Huazi unstable for a while.

Under the lakeside tree, Lu Guanju leaned on Yuan Xi's shoulder, and the two of them clasped their fingers.

This is not the first time the two have held hands, but Yuan Xi still has to rely on internal force to suppress the impulse in his heart.

After returning from Ziyang City, Yuan Xi couldn't wait to give the piece of jade pendant to Lu Guanju.

There are clouds in the Book of Poetry: Vote for me with a peach, repay it with Qiong Yao, repay the bandits, and always think it is good.

The mutual gift between lovers is not a courtesy.

Under the suggestion of Cheng right and wrong, Yuan Xi, who finally got his senses, always wanted to give a gift to Lu Guanju, and just won this piece of jade pendant from Ziyang City, Yuan Xi thought that this was the best gift he could get.

Seeing that Yuan Xi gave him a piece of jade pendant, or a piece of jade pendant worn by a man, Lu Guanju was stunned for a moment, and then accepted it with a smile.

With an excited face, he was about to tell Lu Guanju how this jade pendant came from, but Yuan Xi didn't notice Lu Guanju's stunned moment.

took out the jade pendant from his arms, Lu Guanju rubbed it gently, thought about it, and handed it to Yuan Xi.

Yuan Xi was puzzled, didn't take the jade pendant, turned his head and asked softly: "What? Don't you like this piece of jade pendant? This is something worn by the King of Shu, and it should not be a vulgar thing." ”

Lu Guanju shook his head with a smile and said: "You also said that this is something worn by the King of Shu, such a style is suitable for men to wear, and it is worn on me, but it is not very suitable, so I will leave it to you to wear!"

"Then why didn't you ...... then?"

Yuan Xi understood after thinking about it, so he didn't ask any more, but tightly clenched Lu Guanju's jade hand.

Stretching out his hand to take the jade pendant, Yuan Xi sighed and said, "I knew that it was not appropriate to give you this jade pendant, so I won't fight for this lottery." I don't know much about jade, otherwise, let's go find a jade shop, sell this jade pendant, and exchange it for one you like. ”

Lu Guanju's eyes bent into crescent moons, and he said softly: "Brother Yuan, I am already very happy that you have such thoughts, you can keep this piece of jade pendant, you see how I have ever worn these ornaments on weekdays? What's more, you had better not sell this jade pendant." ”

Yuan Xi took the jade pendant, held it in his hand, and wondered: "What? Why can't you sell it? Is this already my jade pendant?"

Lu Guanju chuckled and said: "This thing is yours, but it is a reward from the king, how can you sell it casually? If the king knows about this, he will definitely not like it." ”

Yuan Xi looked at the jade pendant in his hand and said, "Since it's all given to me, what does he care about what I do with this piece of jade pendant?"

Lu Guanju let go of his clasped hand, poked Yuan Xi's waist lightly, and quipped: "You're having a temper again, aren't you?"

Yuan Xi's waist was itchy, his body twisted slightly, he protected his waist and smiled: "You attacked me again!"

After laughing, he raised his arm and gently hugged Lu Guanju's shoulder, looked at the quiet lake, and said softly: "Guanguan, this time I went to Ziyang City, Uncle Lu talked to me a lot. ”

Gently snuggling in Yuan Xi's arms, Lu Guanju asked, "What did Daddy say?"

Yuan Xi sniffed the fragrance brought by Lu Guanju's hair, and said softly: "Guan Guan, it turned out that when I was on the mountain, I thought that if I understood the Taoist ideals that Master told me, I would be able to gain a foothold in this world, but after going down the mountain, I found that the truth taught by the sages in many books was only in the book, some people understood, some people did not necessarily understand, some people recognized, and some people objected. I can't just rely on what I've learned and ask everyone to do what I want. This is the science of living in the world, and I still have to learn it well. ”

Lu Guanju asked, "My father said this to you?"

Yuan Xi shook his head and said, "These words are what I realized from Uncle Lu's words. ”

Lu Guanju smiled, it is naturally a good thing that Daddy can be so important to Brother Yuan.

Yuan Xi continued: "No wonder Master let me wander out alone, there is not only Tianyu Mountain in the world, only Wang Lizhuang. Guan Guan, maybe in the future, I will travel all over Kyushu, are you willing to accompany me?"

Lu Guanju's face turned a little crimson, and he said in a low voice: "Brother Yuan, have you heard a word?"

"What?"

"Marry your husband!"

Holding Lu Guanju's arm slightly, a burst of warmth rose in Yuan Xi's heart.

At this time, Lu Guanju continued: "It's just ......"

Yuan Xi lowered his head, looked at Lu Guanju lying on his chest and asked, "Just what?"

Lu Guanju's face turned even redder, and she said in a voice like a mosquito: "It's just that if you and I have children, it will be a little inconvenient to go all over Kyushu." ”

Yuan Xi's mouth was half-open, and he was speechless for a while.

In the end, it is a woman's mind and long-term thinking, and Yuan Xi has never thought about the child.

Never!

Seeing this, Lu Guanju frowned slightly, a little shy, and gently slammed Yuan Xi's abdomen with his elbow.

Yuan Xi was in pain, came back to his senses, and involuntarily bowed slightly, and lowered his head.

Seeing Yuan Xi's face come over, Lu Guanju's eyes widened, and then he gritted his teeth and closed his eyes again.

Close, too close, Yuan Xi has never been so close to Lu Guanju, looking at Lu Guanju's slightly trembling eyelashes, Yuan Xi involuntarily kissed it.

Lu Guanju's heart was beating hard, and when Yuan Xi's lips fell on her forehead, in addition to joy, there was also a trace of loss in her heart.

Yuan Xi was like a child who made a mistake, kissed it lightly, and sat up straight.

Lu Guanju opened his eyes, got up from Yuan Xi's arms, and asked softly, "Brother Yuan, what are you doing?"

Yuan Xi smiled embarrassedly: "Well, this, I, the master said, you have to study and practice hard, close the pass, we have been sitting for so long, I will feed you in a while!"

Lu Guanju glared at Yuan Xi.

In the center of the lake, Lao Zhouzi's hand shook, but the fish on the hook escaped and ran away.

If it weren't for the guest in the cabin who dropped something and startled the rod, he would definitely have a big cargo.

Kan Huazi didn't fall anything, but he was so angry that he slapped his palm on the bottom of the boat.

He couldn't stand it any longer, so he ordered the boat to come to the shore.

The old boat collected the fishing rod, entered the water, and the fishing boat flew towards the lake.

Yuan Xi glanced at the flying boat.

He had never been on a boat before.

Seeing this, Lu Guanju smiled and said: "Brother Yuan, let's also board a boat and go to the lake to have fun another day. ”

Yuan Xi said with a smile: "It's better to choose a day than to hit the day, since this boat is docked, let's go over and ask?"

Lu Guanju stared at Yuan Xi a few times and asked, "Brother Yuan, you don't practice anymore?"

Yuan Xi stretched out his hand and scratched his head and said, "Otherwise, let's still practice!"

Lu Guanju looked at it and giggled: "Let's go, let's go over and take a look!"

After speaking, he took Yuan Xi's hand and walked towards the small pier by the lake.

————————————————————————

Near Liangcheng.

Feng Yuan looked at Fan Jiangong with a gloomy face and said, "Your Highness, there must be some things that you don't need to say, you already know, as for who will be in charge of the future of this Bazhou, doesn't Your Highness have a little thought?"

Fan Jiangong said coldly: "You don't have to provoke the relationship between me and Xiao Er, whether I am the king of Shu or Xiao Er in the future, the lord of Bazhou will have the surname Fan, and I, Fan Jiangong, will not be stupid enough to seek skin with the tiger." ”

Feng Yuan ignored Fan Jiangong, found a chair and sat down, looked at this prince, and said lightly: "Your Highness is much worse than the king. ”

Fan Jiangong pulled a chair, sat opposite Feng Yuan with a golden knife, stared at him and said, "Father is father, naturally much stronger than my son in this life." ”

Feng Yuan shook his head slightly and said: "Your Highness, I am right about the king who used to be the son of the world, as the saying goes, the tiger father has no dogs, if you don't understand why the king sent you to the army, I am afraid that the tiger father will really regret giving birth to such a dog as you!"

"You!"

Fan Jiangong was so angry that he patted the armrest and stood up, pointed at Feng Yuan, flicked his arm one last time, and sat back down.

Feng Yuan smiled and said, "Your Highness has figured it out?"

Fan Jiangong took a long breath, leaned back in his chair and asked, "Are you not afraid that your father will know about this?"

Feng Yuan asked rhetorically: "What does the king know? What did I, Feng Yuan, do? Your Highness is the prince of the world, and I came to Liangcheng to supervise the war, which represents the king, and I, Feng Yuan, are close to His Highness, so why not?"

Fan Jiangong was silent.

Feng Yuan continued: "Your Highness, you are not the king, and the king doesn't want you to become the second him, the matter of fratricide is just that the king doesn't want to see it among his descendants." ”

Fan Jiangong's eyes lit up, he looked at Feng Yuan and said, "What does the deputy marshal mean?"

Feng Yuan looked at Fan Jiangong, who was a little happy, and sneered: "Your Highness, don't be too happy, if you have the ability to be the lord of this state, the king will naturally pass on this great position to you, but if His Royal Highness can't help him, will the king consider Xiao Shizi, Ben Shuai can't guarantee it." ”

When Fan Jiangong heard this, he stood up and said proudly with his hands behind his back: "I, Fan Jiangong, am not the queen of Shu!"

Feng Yuan nodded and said, "Your Highness has some of the bearing that a state lord should have. ”

Fan Jiangong arched his hand at Feng Yuan and said: "Deputy brush, there is a bit of a gaffe between the words of this son of the world, and I hope that the deputy marshal is not strange." ”

The corners of Feng Yuan's mouth raised, one foot touched the ground, and he dodged in front of Fan Jiangong.

Fan Jiangong was taken aback, couldn't help but take a half step back, then stood still, frowned, and said, "What does the deputy marshal mean by this?"

Feng Yuan stood up with his hands in his hands and said, "If His Highness doesn't take this half step back, it will be even more beautiful." Your Royal Highness, for the monarch, the most important thing is the art of controlling people, there is a way to use people without doubt, suspects do not need to, if Your Highness wants to be able to inherit the throne in the future, at this time not to be close to my Bazhou Humerus ministers, when will you stay? This is close to Liangcheng, but the king tests the opportunity to study His Highness, His Royal Highness will not really think that the king is to let you come to Liangcheng to kill the enemy and make meritorious contributions. ”

Fan Jiangong glanced at Feng Yuan, flicked his sleeves and said, "Are you teaching this son to do things?"

Feng Yuan didn't care, and said with a faint smile: "It's good that Your Highness can understand!"

Fan Jiangong was silent for a moment and said: "Even if what the deputy marshal said is true, what can I do? With my father's body, I am afraid that this son will have to wait for at least more than ten years." ”

Feng Yuan lowered his head, a trace of essence flashed in his eyes, and then he raised his head and said with a smile: "Your Highness, don't you know that if the general trend is today, once the king has the heart to dominate the world, has His Highness ever thought about what kind of scene it will be like in the future?"

Fan Jiangong was taken aback, looked at Feng Yuan and asked, "Father really has this heart?"

Feng Yuan asked rhetorically, "Doesn't Your Highness want to?"

Fan Jiangong took a deep breath, paced a few steps in the room with his hands behind his back, and then stood in front of Feng Yuan, bowed deeply and said, "Please also ask Mr. to help me!"

Feng Yuan helped Fan Jiangong up, and then knelt down on one knee and said, "I am willing to serve His Highness the work of dogs and horses!"

Fan Jiangong put his hands around Feng Yuan and said with a smile: "Listening to your words is better than reading for ten years, and I can get the help of my husband, which is really a blessing for three lives." ”

Feng Yuan arched his hand and said: "Your Highness, there were many rudeness in your minister's words before, and I still hope for Haihan." ”

Fan Jiangong waved his hand and said, "Sir doesn't need to be like this, if it weren't for Mr., how could I wake up?"

After speaking, Fan Jiangong took Feng Yuan's arm and said, "Sir, please sit down!"

After the two of them sat down, Fan Jiangong looked at Feng Yuan and said, "Sir, in that case, I don't know how I should take this first step?"

Feng Yuanjian raised his eyebrows, looked at Fan Jiangong and said, "Your Highness, this first step, we will take the Tubo people!"
