After discussing the layout of Shui County, it was already very late, so Xue Ran and Lei Xi left the small courtyard to let Chu Bandit and Zhao Liang take a rest.

But the two of them really didn't feel sleepy at all, so they went back to the porch and continued to play the unfinished game of chess. Sanmi was afraid that the two injured adults would catch cold again, so he went to move a stove.

"This season, I don't feel cold, but thank you." Zhao Liangyue nodded slightly to Sanmi, who smiled shyly, offered hot tea to the two of them, and then retreated.

Chu Bie smiled: "Xi Lin, when can you speak so softly to me?"

"Senior brother, you were joking. When did I not treat you with a warm spring breeze?" Zhao Liangyue picked up a sunspot with two fingers, thought for a while, and immediately let Bandit Chu die.

Chu bandit sighed softly, leaned over and looked at the chess game carefully, and said, "You are merciless in your moves, what a 'spring breeze'."

Zhao Liangyue pursed his lips and said, "Since the odds of winning are slim, why don't you give up as soon as possible?"

"Xi Lin, you underestimate senior brother." Bandit Chu said as he dropped the white piece in his hand, instead of going to save death, he blocked Zhao Liangyue's end with his backhand.

Zhao Liangyue's Nianzi's hand lightly touched the tip of his nose, and with the other hand, he looked at the board again and sighed: "Brother, not only the layout has changed, but the rhythm has also changed."

Bandit Chu slowly raised his arm, and smiled at Zhao Liangyue: "Thanks to Xi Lin's good teaching."

Zhao Liangyue looked up at Chu Bandit's injured arm, threw the chess piece in his hand back into the chess jar, and said: "After playing for a while, I feel a little tired, why don't you go in and rest."

Chu Bandit smiled slightly: "Could it be that Xi Lin is concerned about me and wants me to have a good rest?"

Zhao Liangyue's tone was flat: "Of course not."

Bandit Chu didn't say anything more, got up with Zhao Liangyue and walked into the house.

Entering the house is a main room first, and then entering, there are two opposite rooms.

Zhao Liangyue walked to the room he had lived in before, and was about to open the door to enter, when he found Bandit Chu following behind him.

Zhao Liangyue was puzzled: "Brother, is there anything else?"

Bandit Chu glanced at his injured arm to signal, and said, "It's inconvenient to take off and change clothes, why don't Xilin help me."

Zhao Liangyue's first reaction was to ask Sanmi to come in and help, but after thinking about it, the two big men didn't need to mind too much, so they walked to another room and opened the door for Bandit Chu.

The two looked up into the room together, both of them were stunned.

The room is full of festive red, hibiscus red curtains, dragon and phoenix red candles, just like a newly married couple's room.

Zhao Liangyue thought for a while, and said: "Sanmi said before that the Lord Leizhai got married recently, so this small courtyard must have been used by the married couple."

Chu Bandit also thought about Lei Xi, and he felt that the two of them were noble people from the capital, and he was afraid that the two of them would not adapt to the simple conditions of Cangqing Mountain. So much better.

However, it is obviously not suitable for two big men to sleep here.

Chu Bandit and Zhao Liangyue looked at each other, and went to another room tacitly.

"There's only one couch here, but it's quite spacious. The two of us can sleep on it." Zhao Liangyue went to the side cabinet and took another quilt and spread it on. .

But Bandit Chu took a step back, coughed lightly, and said, "Or, I'll do it myself."

Zhao Liangyue looked at Chu Bandit suspiciously, but Chu Bandit was unwilling, so he insisted without reason, and only said: "Then hurry up, so I can turn off the lights and rest."

Bandit Chu nodded, watching Zhao Liangyue take off his outer shirt from the corner of his eye, and took off his robe with great effort.

Zhao Liangyue blew out the two lamps, and the two lay down, one under the other.

Perhaps it was raining at night outside, and it was rare to find a comfortable place to sleep, so Zhao Liang became more sleepy and soon fell asleep.

But Chu Biao was even more sleepy, quietly turning his body to face Zhao Liangyue, looking at Zhao Liangyue's blurred outline in the dark night with the faint light.

Chu Bandit really wanted to light up the lamp, and also wanted to put a luminous pearl, and also wanted a bright full moon, so that he could see more clearly, and engrave the eyebrows of the person in front of him into his mind without reservation.

However, being able to lie together so quietly at this moment is already a rare and rare time in my 13 years of bloody storms.

Chu Bandit couldn't help but smiled, his peach blossom eyes became extremely gentle in this dark night that no one could see, and those tender feelings that were usually revealed to the nines were all spread out in the sleepy in front of people.

The next day, when Zhao Liangyue woke up, the rain had stopped outside the house, and occasionally there were a few birdsongs, as clear as a bell.

Zhao Liangyue felt that after sleeping, he felt much more comfortable. He turned his head and saw that Chu Bandit had already woken up, and there was no one in the room.

"I was so sleepy." Zhao Liangyue got up, put on his coat, and left the house.

"Young master!" Youbai had been waiting in the stone pavilion for a long time, having dinner with Chu Bandit and Jing Mo, when he saw Zhao Liangyue coming out, he ran over excitedly and hugged him with rice particles on the corner of his mouth.

Zhao Liangyue raised his hand to wipe off the rice particles on Youbai's face, then patted his head, and said with a smile, "Same as Ah Bai."

Youbai pursed his lips, pulled Zhao Liangyue to sit down in Shiting, poured him a large bowl of chicken soup that was warm on the stove, and then saw Chu Biao pushing a dish of dishes that he picked earlier to Zhao Liangyue, Youbai Can't help sighing: "Master Chu, you pick all the food that my young master likes to eat, you know my young master's preferences very clearly!"

Then Zhao Liangyue immediately thought of Uncle Song, raised his eyes to look at Chu Bandit, Chu Bandit did not hide it, his peach blossom eyes rolled, and he smiled.

Zhao Liangyue was starving, so he didn't bother to ask any more questions, so he lowered his head to eat.

Because of the disaster in Ningzhou, except for the chicken soup for body nourishment, there are simple and rough meals. There are a lot of wild vegetables. Although they have been deliberately processed, they still have a slightly astringent taste, but everyone eats them very cleanly.

After the meal, Youbai helped Jingmo change his eyes, and Zhao Liangyue and Chu Bandit sat down in front of the porch, facing a game of chess, and went through the recent events again.

Bandit Chu took a sip of coarse tea and said: "Looking at the time, Xu Guangchuan has almost arrived in Ningzhou, and the latest news will come in a few days. Those who are with him are also those who have stayed in the Ningzhou garrison before." Zheng Xiu, the servant of the Ministry of War."

"Zheng Xiu is one of the few pure ministers in the court. If he is willing to come to Ningzhou, things will be much easier." Zhao Liangyue dropped a sunspot and said, "But I also saw that, Brother wants to let him take over after the Ministry of War is brought down."

Bandit Chu nodded: "Sima Xiao is in control of the Ministry of Officials. If something happens to Wang Xian, he will definitely replace him with his own people in the Ministry of War. He on my side will definitely be afraid, and he will be hindered in every possible way. Instead of doing this, It’s better to replace it with a pure official like Zheng Xiu, then the old Han Wenyun will have no way to object, and officials above the fifth rank will also be able to get a balance, and no one from all parties will be able to take advantage of it.”

Zhao Liangyue smiled: "The art of check and balance, you are much better than the late Emperor and the Holy One."

Bandit Chu raised his eyes to look at Zhao Liangyue, and said with a smile: "Xi Lin, it's not fun to say that."

Zhao Liangyue raised his hand to twist the sunspots, blocking Chu Bandit's chess completely, smiled lightly, raised his hand, then frowned, and said: "Senior brother, it's over."

Bandit Chu threw the rest of the chess pieces back into the chess jar, and sighed softly: "Forget it, Xilin chess is unique in the world, and I am willing to bow down, brother."

Zhao Liangyue said politely: "Brother must not have played chess very much before."

Chu bandit went up with the stick, and said: "It's okay, I will be able to advance by leaps and bounds with Xilin teaching me in the future."

"..." Zhao Liangyue staggered away from Zhao Liangyue's smiling peach eyes, and asked about something else, "Is there any news about the brothers and sisters of the Zhuo family?"

Chu Bandit: "Well, I have met Zhuo Nvxia just early in the morning, and asked her to meet with Zhuo Chuan, and act according to the plan discussed yesterday."

Youbai clicked his tongue when he heard the words, and said: "My lord, you don't know that Nvxia Zhuo was tricked by Mr. Pingpeng before, and I saw that she was still angry just now, it's scary, so No matter how good-looking this girl is, it's scary when she gets angry."

"Haha, that's why I, the poor monk, have been hiding and haven't come out."

Say Cao Cao, Cao Cao arrives.Pingpeng walked into the small courtyard talking and laughing, still holding a volume of books in his hand, which looked very old.

"Mr. Xue has already taken people out of Cangqing Mountain in advance. There is a porridge shed at the north end. There are several farmers pretending to be farmers from Tuyuan. They are probably from Yeyuan. Before we were afraid of scaring the snake, we didn't expose it. Now It just came in handy." Ping Peng said, handing the volume of the book to Zhao Liangyue, and said, "This book is the painstaking work of the five household ministers of the previous dynasty. Originally there were five volumes, but the poor monk got hold of this one."

Zhao Liangyue took it and flipped through it, and couldn't help sighing: "After all, there are many practices, which are much more direct than talking on paper."

"It's a pity, not only can the poor monk only get one copy, but he can't see much of it." Ping Peng took the tea that San Mi handed over, took two sips, and said, "It's better to give it to you, it will play a better role." bigger."

The scroll in his hand had turned yellow, but it was well preserved, Zhao Liangyue knew that it was Ping Peng's treasure, so he handed over his hand as a thank you.

Bandit Chu asked: "Sir, when will I wait for the sunrise of Cangqing Mountain?"

Ping Peng gave him a blank look when he heard the words, then pointed at Zhao Liangyue with his chin, and said: "You two are sick and one injured, stay on the mountain for a few more days, our Cangqing Mountain will not be able to withstand it for a few days, let's talk Now, just the two of you in this state, go out for a couple of laps, don't both die, and make a pair of desperate mandarin ducks."

Youbai was puzzled, and asked: "This master..."

Ping Peng corrected: "Same as them, called Mr."

Youbai said: "Sir, mandarin ducks refer to a man and a woman."

Pingpeng looked at him with a smile, and said, "Son, the poor monk is much smarter than you think."

"I'm not a child!" Youbai retorted immediately.

Ping Peng let out a snort, looked at Zhao Liangyue, who was so focused on flipping through the scrolls that he had no time to care about the small troubles here, and then turned his head to look at Chu Bandit, who had been seen through his mind, and felt that those peach blossom eyes seemed to be emphasizing : "I hope Mr. Don't make it clear."

Pingpeng pursed his lips, he couldn't say he was smiling, and he couldn't say he wasn't smiling. He just looked up at the birds chasing on the branches, and said: "One thought of ignorance is the end of prajna, and one thought of wisdom is the birth of prajna. Human wisdom is like this, so is love. One thought is inadvertent, one thought is born from the heart, the flower cannot be chased after it falls, and the only thing to be broken is to break it."

But Bandit Chu said indifferently: "The review of 500 years in the previous life is only exchanged for the passing of the present life. There are too many pictures, but the relationship is short."

Pingpeng just smiled and said nothing.
