The layout of the room tends to be elegant and elegant, but it is very consistent with the ancient scholarly door of the Zhuge family.

When the two entered the room, there was a plain-clothed woman leaning on the soft couch in the inner room, who looked like she was not confused, but her hair was full of frost, and she looked up when she heard footsteps.

"Mother. The young man bowed and shouted.

"Old lady. Xiao Feng also gave a salute.

The woman was stunned, and a complicated smile slowly appeared on her face, as if she was a little overwhelmed for a moment, and then calmed down, "Here, feel free to sit." ”

Xiao Feng smiled, "Thank you." ”

Although he has only seen three times, Xiao Feng believes that the old lady is a very wise person, who can support the pressure to keep the Zhuge family safe and sound, especially when the time of moving forward five years or even earlier, which itself requires great strength and means, so many things do not need to be clarified by young people. When he came to see her, she already had a plan in her heart.

The two sat down as they were told

"Go and put incense on your brother. The old lady suddenly turned her head to look at the young man, paused and said softly, "If you go straight to the sky, you can go out for a walk in two days." ”

"Mother, I ......" The young man's eyes suddenly turned red again.

The old lady looked at him lovingly, "Over the years, your bitter mother knows it. The shame of our Zhuge family should not be carried by you alone, you can do whatever you want in the future. Don't worry, your brother won't blame you. ”

"However, our Zhuge family ......" The young man clenched his fists, and he was a little at a loss.

"If you have an accident, your mother will pass on Ming'er from your sister, and the Zhuge family can't cut off the incense. The old lady said softly.

The young man bit his lower lip and nodded vigorously.

"Mother wants to talk to the ethereal boy alone, you can go. The old lady said again.

The young man glanced at Xiao Feng and nodded, "The child is leaving." ”

Xiao Feng quietly watched the young man disappear, took a step back from his gaze, stood up and saluted again, "Thank you, old lady, for understanding righteousness." ”

"The old woman should thank you for leaving her son. The old lady shook her head, "Those things back then were too big a blow to our Zhuge family, and they also became a knot in Li'er's heart." Even if you don't come, you won't be able to stay for long. ”

Xiao Feng's pupils condensed slightly, "What do you mean?"

"Heart disease. The old lady smiled, very desolate, "Dr. Liang said last year that he won't live for a few years. ”

The corners of Xiao Feng's mouth moved, and he hesitated, "If it's convenient, you can talk to the juniors, and the juniors can't guide you." ”

The old lady stayed for a while, as if she was reacting to the feasibility of Xiao Feng's suggestion, and as if she was organizing the language, and after a while, she said in a daze, "Li'er, he used to be a very lively child, but since his brother left, he has changed too much." ”

"Our Zhuge family's persistence for hundreds of years, the life and death of countless generations of ancestors, is an unknown honor, but also a shackle, whoever gives up is to put these shackles on that person, how to persist over the years, how was it before, and now no one wants to bear this shame, and does not want to be a sinner in the family. ”

"But after his brother left, the Zhuge family was the only one in him, Mo'er didn't want him to follow his old path, let him swear not to go out, what could he do, his suffering, all these years, he didn't say it, and no one could listen, but my heart as a mother is like a mirror, and he blames himself every day. ”

She took a few deep breaths, as if she wanted to suppress the huge pain in her heart, "Five years ago, it was also at this time, Mo'er came back and said with a calm face that no one was allowed to get involved in it in the future, no one was willing to give up at that time, even if they might be sent to death in the future." But it was only a long time, a month before he died, committing suicide. ”

Xiao Feng's expression moved slightly, and he quickly returned to calm.

Now Zhuge Mo on the wisdom list is no longer the original person, Xiao Feng has already guessed this, but what he didn't expect is that Zhuge Mo actually committed suicide and died, not because of the secret persecution of Tianji Pavilion, but because he killed himself, it seems that there is some hidden meaning in this.

However, since the old lady was still talking, although Xiao Feng was really difficult to empathize, he was embarrassed to interrupt her.

I heard the old lady continue, "Every generation of the Zhuge family will pave the way for the younger generations, he is gone, and none of us dare to insist, because he did not pave the way, none of us dare to act rashly, in fact, it is not necessary to leave the son, but he is the only male in the family, and this responsibility will be on his shoulders, which almost drives the child crazy." ”

"To tell you the truth, at this time of year, Li'er is uncomfortable, I look even more uncomfortable, sometimes I even have inexplicable nightmares, Li'er is also like his brother, I commit suicide without paying attention, so I often talk to him in the evening. I panicked, but I didn't dare to say it. ”

"He may know my thoughts, so he doesn't want me to call him during this time of year, so he comes by himself, but his suffering, he doesn't say it, he doesn't know and can't listen to it, these have nothing to do with him, it's not his incompetence and cowardice, Mo'er's death, Xiaoyue's disfigurement, and it's not his fault......"

It may be the hearts of parents all over the world, plus she has been suppressed for a long time, although the old lady did not cry bitterly, but she spoke incoherently.

Xiao Feng didn't have any expression, and while listening carefully, his mind quickly supplemented a series of speculations about the Zhuge family.

The Zhuge family is in the secular world, and to a lesser extent, the influence of Xifeng is not great, Xiao Feng was able to notice it because of a coincidence, when he analyzed the Tianji Pavilion, he had a large-scale investigation of the Tianji List of the past dynasties, and he felt that it was inappropriate to look at the large-scale list statistics of the previous Tianji List.

At that time, he found that every two to three sessions of the Tianji List rotated, and a Zhuge surname would appear on the Zhi List, and he didn't care much about it at first, until the name Zhuge Mo appeared.

Zhuge Mo, because it happened that Xiao Feng was looking for a master in various fields in the hidden world, he was focused on by Xiao Feng, and he was on the wisdom list twice, but there was almost no information on the rivers and lakes, as if this person had never appeared on the rivers and lakes.

A person who can be on the list of heavenly machines, even if he is really unknown before, can go from the underground trading hall to the dragon festival, it is impossible not to reveal any news, so the reason for this phenomenon is very debatable.

Xiao Feng became interested, so he pulled it deeply, it didn't matter, he pulled out a Zhuge family, and dug out the eighteen generations of the ancestors of the Zhuge family, and then found some hidden secrets behind it, and half-guessed and half-thought that there was now this involvement.

Actually, sometimes Xiao Feng is also a little weak-hearted, after all, he is in a hurry, and some things are really not 100% sure, if this kind of thing is an oolong, although it is easy to solve, it is very embarrassing.

After only half a cup of tea, the old lady stopped talking, and leaned back on the soft couch as if she had suddenly exhausted her strength, and closed her eyes.

Although Xiao Feng knew that if he asked more, the old lady would definitely answer, but he still felt that it would be good to talk or ask other people another day, and after waiting for a while, he saw that the old lady was really asleep and left lightly.

Stepping out of the hall, there was just a breeze coming.

The hot breeze has a slightly sweet aroma, which is naturally a little greasy for other people, but Xiao Feng thinks it's not bad, he takes a deep breath and spits it out, and the feeling of suffocation in his heart after listening to the old lady's complaint is relieved a lot.

He didn't feel much about the old lady's story, except for being a little depressed, after all, Xiao Feng always felt a little ironic about the sense of family responsibility, and he didn't want to think about it.

Looking around, but there was no figure, Xiao Feng thought for a while, and suddenly thought of the two maids who reminded him that the old lady was afraid of noise.

"So all the servants around this week have been taken away?" Xiao Feng suddenly thought helplessly, but he hadn't been arranged to live yet.

Since the host didn't make a sound, even if Xiao Feng was very familiar with this place, it was naturally impossible for him to find a guest room to live in, not to mention that although he had been here three times, he was really unfamiliar with this place, so he went to the sea of flowers that he had stayed in for an afternoon before, and prayed that Zhuge Li would think of him before nightfall, otherwise don't blame him for not giving face, and run out to solve the problem of food and accommodation by himself.

He walked back, and when he was approaching the sea of flowers, he suddenly saw a woman in Tsing Yi sitting on a pale pink stone with a light veil on the side of a colorful group of flowers not far away, holding a huqin in her hand, staring blankly in his direction.

Xiao Feng didn't think much about it for a while, so he looked around him.

No one else, is it looking at him? But he doesn't know her.

In the blink of an eye, Xiao Feng reacted again, this person was the one who had played the huqin all afternoon, so he ignored it, ran two steps and sat in the pavilion, quietly admiring the flowers and plants.

It may be that Xiao Feng is too unobtrusive, the sky is gradually darkening, and there is no one else in the garden except for two gardeners, and even Shuncai seems to have forgotten Xiao Feng.

Xiao Feng pouted, he didn't care where he lived, he just ran in and slipped out again, it always felt quite troublesome.

He turned his neck a few times, stood up, and was about to leave, but when he looked up, the woman not far away hadn't even left, smiled, didn't intend to pay attention, stepped on the porch, and prepared to leave directly.

was only halfway through, and suddenly there was a figure in front of him, it was the woman who was still sitting in the sea of flowers just now.

"Your Excellency, is there something wrong?" Xiao Feng took a step back and asked politely.

"You said the score. The woman was stunned, uncertain, and the voice was so hoarse that it was difficult to distinguish between men and women.

"You've been thinking about it for so long, don't you think about it for a while?" Xiao Feng said with a wink.

The woman frowned, obviously not quite understanding what Xiao Feng meant.

"The first time I came, I came to check the codex of the predecessors of the Zhuge family, and you watched me in front of the window for a long time, and you didn't make any movements. The second time I came, I persuaded Zhuge to leave and have a look, and you listened all the time on the rooftop, and I think you should have guessed a lot of things. This time I came, you played the huqin in the sea of flowers, played for a whole afternoon, I don't care what you mean, but you don't make any moves, until now, I think you still haven't made up your mind, so what are you doing here?" Xiao Feng looked at the woman and said lightly.

"I just didn't make up my mind for a while. The woman explained unhurriedly.

"It's your business, but since you haven't caught it three times, what qualifications do you have to read the score again?" Xiao Feng stared at the woman and said coldly.

"And what else are you going to tell them to say?" the woman's voice cooled significantly.

"If I say I'm fooling you, are you credible?" Xiao Feng playfully hooked the corners of his mouth.

"You're not like that...... No, you're not that kind of person. The woman frowned.

"How do you know?" Xiao Feng raised his eyebrows.

The woman was dumbfounded, she suddenly realized one thing, the young man was indeed playing on her, and he was playing blatantly, just and brightly, "What do you mean?"

Xiao Feng sighed, "Five years, the original Huajian Hu has long lost its timbre, it's a pity." ”

As he spoke, he shook his head and prepared to leave.

"What the hell do you want to say?" the woman strode in front of Xiao Feng.

"Go and make a score, and if I'm satisfied, I'll give you the score." Xiao Feng bypassed at will.

"You ......," the woman's face suddenly turned ugly, "I don't know how to play." ”

Xiao Feng paused and looked the woman up and down, "I'm very strange, how can they make a good chess player not know how to play?

The woman was stunned.

Xiao Feng chuckled, but his smile was not gentle, "I'll tease you, but if you can't play music, you won't be qualified to go out, because I won't allow a person to be a drag oil bottle for no reason." ”

"Get out?" the woman seemed to be shaken.

"Why, you haven't seen it clearly?" Xiao Feng seemed a little surprised, "That score can only be seen outside, it is a very magnificent scene. ”

When Xiao Feng said that it was a magnificent scene, his tone was obviously calm, but the woman always felt a little eerie for some reason, but after five years of almost no brains, the woman only felt a little slow to react, as if everything was wrong.

Then she heard the young man in front of her twitch, and then she saw that the young man suddenly took two steps quickly, and his figure flashed and climbed directly onto the top of the corridor, and when he looked for someone again, he had disappeared.

Over the wall out of Zhuge Mansion, Xiao Feng asked for a bowl of wontons at a wonton stall next to the street, and after being full of water and food, he walked around the night market, bought some paper, ink, pen and inkstone, and found an inn to live in.

has been running around for a long time, and Xiao Feng has long been familiar with these things.

The night is getting darker, and it is already three watches in a blink of an eye.

Xiao Feng put down the wolf's hair, watched the ink stains gradually dry, and unconsciously went through the history of the Zhuge family in his mind.

Zhuge , the earliest record originated from the surname Ge, the rank record, there is a family surnamed Ge who likes to migrate, and later chose a city to settle, but did not want to have the surname Ge in the city, so he added a word in front of Ge, the surname Zhuge was restored, and later the "Three Kingdoms" recorded that there was a family surnamed Ge before the three parts of the world, and paid a lot of work for the separation of the Three Kingdoms.

Of course, these old yellow calendars have gone through thousands of years, and for the common people, in addition to feeling that the surname Zhuge is relatively small, not many people feel that there are other honors.

How did this Zhuge come about, Xiao Feng didn't know, what he valued was that in the history of Qingyun Academy, the surname Zhuge used to be one of the major surnames that occupied the quota in the academy.

The turning point was more than 300 years ago, when Zhuge Wen, who was in power on the left, angered Long Yan for some obscure reason, causing Zhuge Wen to be exiled for tens of thousands of miles, and even to his descendants.

I don't know if it was the same year or a few years later, the Zhuge clan of Qingyun Academy was also expelled for some undocumentable reason.

He felt more than once that this Zhuge might be inseparable from the Zhuge of Qingyun Academy.
