Chapter 164: People of the past are gone (1)
Dongfang Sui went to Shu King Wuxie, and Zhuge fled. After Zhuge Rongrong and Shu'er said goodbye, they took three guards from Prince Sheng's Mansion and two letters home to Chen Guo, and went down the mountain with Xiao Xun to the small town in Zichuan City.
Hidden Chess Club. He wanted to play one last game of chess with Uncle Xiao before leaving.
In recent days, Xiaoyin Chess Club has become very famous in Zichuan City, because old Qi Wei people who come from all over the world, who want to join the Allied Restoration Army, must first report their names and places of origin to Xiaoyin Chess Club. People in the chess club
Many unfamiliar faces came to the chess club to play chess. There were even some who didn't know how to play chess at all and pretended to play black and white. Both Xiao Xun and Dongfang Sui knew that among them were some people sent by the Song Dynasty to find out the news.
spies.
An old man and a young man were sitting in the most elegant and quiet private room in the chess club playing chess. The boy from the chess club gently knocked on the door and said: "Your Majesty, there is a masked woman in Zhao Kingdom's costume outside the door handing a greeting card. I want to
Talk to the king alone."
Xiao Xun took the greeting card and saw that the small characters on it were proud and sharp, but also gentle and gentle, which was different from the handwriting of ordinary women. There were only four lines of ballads on the greeting card:
Flowers bloom in the pleasant garden
You guess the peony and peony?
Picking stars on the stargazing platform
Pick a Ziwei and bring it back
Dongfang Sui saw Uncle Xiao staring at the greeting card intently, motionless as if time had frozen, and he didn't know what was going on, so he asked: "Uncle Xiao, who came to visit?"
Xiao Xun was still staring at the greeting card, his voice suddenly became duller than usual, and he stood up and said: "Xin'er, it's getting late. It's time for you to set off to Chen State to do the things your sister asked you to do. This game of chess... let's do it
The sun will set again."
Dongfang Sui took a look at the chess game that had only begun, and stood up to say goodbye knowingly: "Thank you Uncle Xiao for teaching Sui'er how to play chess these days. I will remember this game of chess, and if I have the opportunity, I will play again in the future."
Uncle Xiao will finish it."
Xiao Xun nodded and walked out of the private room to see them off, followed closely by Dongfang Sui and the three guards.
At the entrance of the chess club, Dongfang Sui once again bowed deeply to Xiao Xun. When he turned around, he suddenly saw a masked woman dressed as a Zhao nationalist standing slightly far away, only revealing a pair of eyes, clear and unruffled, but tightly clasped.
People's hearts. Dongfang Sui saw the woman looking at Xiao Xun and knew that she was the woman who had just sent him a greeting card. He thought that the woman was probably Uncle Xiao's old acquaintance in Qi State, so he walked towards her from a distance.
After bowing, he hurriedly left with three guards.
The masked female guest saw that the young man who was slightly taller than Xiao Xun turned around and walked away, so Tingting took a few steps and walked to Xiao Xun.
The two looked at each other in silence, and after the vicissitudes of life, there were no tears.
Xiao Xun remembered that ballad. The first ballad in his memory was probably the first time he heard it when he was a baby. Later, his mother gave birth to a younger sister, and she often held her sister and sang softly in the pleasant garden.
Xiao Xun said nothing, turned around and walked into the chess club, followed by the masked female guest. The two walked into the secluded private room where Xiao Xun and Dongfang Sui were playing chess just now. Xiao Xun solemnly ordered the boy: "Twenty steps outside the door.
Guard, no one is allowed to come." Then he closed the door of the private room tightly himself.
Between the two of them was an unarranged chessboard. The masked female guest took off her veil. Although she was nearly forty years old, she still looked young.
Xiao Xun calmed down the turmoil in his heart and said warmly: "Since we left, the flowers in the pleasant garden have bloomed and fallen... for thirty years."
The woman smiled slightly and said, "The 'star-gazing platform' has also been renamed the 'star-catching platform'."
Xiao Xun sighed: "The people of the past have passed away, but you and I are still alive."
The woman shook her head and said: "Xiao Yi is dead, and what is alive is just a wisp of obsession."
"You...live in Zhao country now?"
"Outside Pingliang City, there are several acres of vegetable land, where I can live in the garden."
"That's...that's fine."
"Qi Wei is about to be restored to the kingdom. I, a ruined person, shouldn't come to disturb you. But I heard that my brother is still here, how can I not come and talk to him?"
"Twenty years ago, what happened in the White Jade Palace? Who harmed you? Who saved you?"
The woman replied: "Maybe the person who harmed me saved me."
"How do you say this?"
"After I gave birth to my child, my bleeding stopped, but it was this bleeding that saved my life. I thought those were my last words, my last breath, but my mind that had drifted away gradually became clearer. I woke up
When I came, it was raining outside the window. Only me and a confidant assigned to me by Liu Ying were left in Suhua Palace, named Tingfang. She had been staying by my side in a daze. I coughed and came back to breathe.
Fang called me in a low voice in surprise. She said that there must be someone in Suhua Palace who wants to harm me, and asked me if I could walk on the ground, leave the place of trouble and trouble with her, go to recuperate outside the palace, and look for the child who was taken away. I
After drinking a lot of water, I regained some strength, and left the White Jade Palace with Tingfang. I didn't know why there were more than half of the guards in the White Jade Palace that day, and there were also many fewer people in the palace. Many places were not guarded at all.
Later I found out that on the day Xiao Yi died, the King of Song also had a posthumous title and was called King Huai of Song."
"It turns out that you are...resurrected from the dead."
"After leaving the White Jade Palace, Tingfang took me to a small medical clinic in Yuduli that was deserted for medical treatment and recuperation. There was a slightly crazy doctor there who was an old friend of Tingfang's childhood. Tingfang said that he had been there for more than ten years.
In order to cure a plague in Yide, the old capital of the Song Dynasty, he tasted too many medicinal herbs and became insane. After King Wu of the Song Dynasty moved the capital to Yudu, in order to repay him for his merits in treating the plague, he was brought to the Jade Capital and returned to the capital.
He opened a medical clinic. He told me a lot in confusion. What I could understand was that I was actually poisoned by two different poisons before giving birth, but the two poisons just happened to fight poison with poison. What a coincidence.
It turned into a miraculous blood coagulation medicine. My blood flow continued, and the poison in my body was completely eliminated, but the blood coagulation medicine caused by the poison was left behind. My confusion was due to excessive blood loss.
, and I gradually woke up because the blood coagulation medicine took effect and stopped the bleeding. My health was good. After the bleeding stopped, I regained my breath and gradually recovered after drinking water. Tingfang helped me get up and get down.
Although the steps are difficult, since there is still one breath left, we cannot give up easily."
When Xiao Xun heard this, he couldn't help but burst into tears. Well, since you still have one breath left, you can't give up easily. Isn't this how I got up and crawled out of the pile of dead people?
After a long time, he choked and asked: "Sister, did you find your child who was taken away?"
"No need to look for it. I know who he is with from the beginning to the end. Brother, you also know this person."
Xiao Xun was confused: "Who is it?"
"The former dandy of Chu State, now the leader of Wei State."
Xiao Xun was surprised and said: "That Xiaorong...is your son?"
The woman nodded slightly and smiled happily. It turns out you called him "little".
Xiao Xun clapped his hands and suddenly realized: "No wonder! No wonder that child looks so... The first time I saw him, I felt as if I had seen him before! No wonder! No wonder Brother Zhuge, who has always been cold and aloof, is so considerate to Xiao Rong!" Then!
Then he asked: "Did you hear that Xiao Rong got married, so you came here to congratulate him? They, father and son, are both in the Shu Palace. I will take you to see them right now, okay?"
The woman shook her head and said in a relieved tone: "The mortal relationship is over, why bother? Now Xiao is the leader of the Restoration Alliance, you are the leader of Qi State, and Zhuge is the leader of Wei State. If I were still alive, why would Qi State insist on restoring the country? You
Since I don’t know Xiao Xiao’s life experience, Zhuge must have never told Xiao Xiao. Over the years, I have heard too many rumors about the princess of the Qi Kingdom.
As far as I’m concerned, it’s the best.”
The woman covered her veil, bowed to Xiao Xun and said, "Brother, it's time for me to go. With you and Zhuge here, I feel at ease. The mountains are long and the rivers are wide, and we will never see each other again. Souls and lives are precious, each of us should cherish them!"
