Chapter five hundred and sixty second old people always get together

"Is there any problem?" Xu Wenruo slowly raised his head and looked at Xu Wei with burning eyes.

"Father, that is Liu Xuanhan's camp. There are tens of thousands of elite soldiers there. There are only five hundred people... No, I have to lead troops to reinforce!" After Xu Wei finished speaking, he turned around and left.

Xu Wenruo slammed the feather fan aside and said in a deep voice: "Stop and come back! If you are not stable in your work and life, all my training for you over the years will be in vain!"

Xu Wei turned his head and said anxiously: "But father..."

Xu Wenruo remained indifferent and said in a deep voice: "It's already too late for you to mobilize troops for reinforcements! Did you hear the shouting of killing outside? I guess they have already broken into Liu Xuanhan's camp..."

"this......"

Xu Wei listened carefully, and the shouting outside the window became clearer and more intense.

Xu Wei walked back in three steps and said anxiously: "Father! Why did father act like this? If Xiao Jianshu has a shortcoming, how can he explain it to the prime minister! I'm afraid it will cost the lives of the entire Xu family!"

Xu Wenruo sneered and said: "Really? Death is inevitable in battlefield attacks. If Xiao Jianshu goes here and is really buried there, it will be his fate! From this point of view, the destined successor cannot be him.

Oh! Besides, it’s just Xiao Jianshu. His weight in Xiao Yuanche’s heart is probably not as important as that of the Xu family..."

"But..." Xu Wei still wanted to say something.

But Xu Wenruo frowned and scolded: "Why is this man so indecisive? He is afraid of wolves in front and tigers in back. Sit down and play chess!"

"I......"

Xu Wei had no choice but to sit down heavily.

The two of them each believed in right and wrong, and started another game of chess.

Xu Wenruo, on the other hand, was as steady as a mountain, with a face as usual. Every move he made was as steady as a mountain, and his defense was airtight. When he turned from defense to attack, he would frequently make killing moves and attack with fierce force.

On the other hand, although Xu Wei was playing chess, his mind was restless and not at all focused on the chess game. Hearing the shouts of killing outside the window, which could not be heard without stopping, made his heart beat with fear and restless.

After a while, he was so frightened that he was sweating, and his hands holding the chess piece were shaking uncontrollably.

"As a chess player, the most taboo thing is to be multi-tasking, not focusing on one thing, and having vague thoughts!" Xu Wenruo suddenly shouted.

"Calm down, stay calm, and stay calm!"

Xu Wei was suddenly awakened by Xu Wenruo's shouting, and then he reluctantly gathered his thoughts and gave up.

Xu Wenruo glanced at Xu Wei and sneered: "How could you have made such a move in normal times? A stupid move! A stupid move! With this move, didn't all the white stones in this area fall into my trap...

....”

Xu Wei then looked towards the chessboard, and sure enough he saw that Xu Wenruo had settled on a black stone, and all his white stones around him had been swallowed up.

"This... the situation is over!" Xuyi let out a long sigh and resigned.

He meant that he did not want to continue playing chess, but Xu Wenruo said lightly: "Come again..."

There was no other way, so Xu Wei had no choice but to bite the bullet and continue playing chess with Xu Wenruo.

In just a moment, Xu Wei was killed and his armor was thrown away. He was completely defeated and had no choice but to surrender again.

Xu Wei could not sit still for a long time. The sound of fighting outside was still there. How could he concentrate on the game?

But Xu Wenruo was calm and composed, with no trace of worry or anxiety at all.

Xu Wei didn't want to continue. Now this game was simply a torment for him.

But Xu Wenruo seemed to be in high spirits tonight. After one round, he moved on to the next one.

Xu Wei had no choice but to deal with it reluctantly.

There was silence in the main hall, and the candlelight flickered, flickering on and off.

It's so quiet that you can hear the snapping sound of the chess pieces touching the chessboard when they are placed, which is extremely clear.

In addition, the screams of killing were like a nightmare that never stopped.

"Boom--" a muffled thunder sounded across the sky.

Then there were sharp flashes one after another, like dragons circling and dancing wildly in the dark sky.

It was this sudden thunder that made Xu Wei's hand that was holding Bai Zi tremble suddenly.

"Pap..."

Bai Zi fell to the ground in response.

Xu Wei's face also turned pale.

"Pick it up..."

Xu Wenruo didn't even look at Xu Wei.

Xu Wei tremblingly bent down to pick up the white seeds that fell on the ground. At this moment, there was a sudden sound of rushing, and heavy rain poured down, hitting the dome of the hall with a loud roar.

The sound actually covered up the original fierce sound of fighting.

Xu Wenruo then slowly raised his head, looked out the window, and said slowly and thoughtfully: "It will rain tonight, a stormy night... when it turns into a dragon..."

The two continued to play chess.

Because Xu Wei couldn't hear the cry of killing, he calmed down a little. While playing chess, he couldn't help but ask: "Father, it is true that as you said, your heart is for the Jin Dynasty, and one day you will fight with Xiao Yuan." Let's just put an end to Che, and also, if you and Xiao Jianshu, who have devoted all their efforts to protect you, come to power, what if he becomes ambitious and becomes tampering..."

Only then did Xu Wenruo stop thinking, glanced at Xu Wei and said, "It's over? But that's not necessarily the case. There is a certain tacit understanding between Xiao Yuanche and me. He knows my bottom line, and I know his bottom line. .....As long as he doesn't cross my bottom line, I'll give him advice until death, and that's fine..."

"I wonder what my father's bottom line is, and what is Xiao Yuanche's bottom line?" Xu Wei asked.

"The Great Jin is safe! The Emperor is safe! This is the bottom line of being a father! As for Xiao Yuanche's bottom line, I do not openly oppose some of his self-interested practices, but I also work for him sincerely..."

Xu Wenruo paused and then seemed to add: "To be specific, if Xiao Yuanche refuses to claim the title of king, I will support him... I don't think Xiao Yuanche will do it." He did that kind of transgression...but if he really did it, I would be shattered to pieces, and I would have to stop him!"

"As for the second thing you mentioned... My father is already old, and I'm afraid he won't be able to wait until Xiao Jianshu has the heart to be arrogant. But I have one thing to say, Xu Wei, you need to keep your Remember, you can never forget, let alone betray!" After Xu Wenruo finished speaking, he looked at Xu Wei with a solemn expression and said...??m

"Xiao Jianshu respects the emperor, whether outwardly or inwardly. If he continues the Kingdom of Jin for one day, you and the Xu family will protect him for one day. If Xiao Jianshu violates his unspoken agreement with the Xu family, you , and the Xu family, no matter how much the price is paid, this rebellious minister and traitor, the thief of the country, will be killed before the sun shines!" Xu Wenruo said word by word.

"Yes... I will obey my father's orders!" Xu Wei hurriedly cupped his hands and said.

"Remember, this is your promise to your father. If one day you break this promise, as long as I am here, you and I will no longer have the feeling of father and son. If I die, there will be no peace under the Nine Springs!"

Xu Wenruo's voice is like ice and every word is like a knife.

Xu Wei trembled all over, prostrated himself on the ground, and said in a trembling voice: "No matter what, I will never break my oath today. If I break it, I will die badly!"

Xu Wenruo slowly helped him up, nodded and said: "Very good, now let's continue playing chess."

Xu Wei reluctantly played another game with Xu Wenruo, but still lost miserably.

He really couldn't play chess anymore. Just when he was about to give up, he saw Xu Wenruo setting up the chessboard again and getting ready for the next game.

"This..." Xu Wei looked confused, stood up slowly and said, "I'm going to blow the cold wind to get rid of the heat..."

As he spoke, he stood up and walked quickly to the window.

He stood there for a moment, then suddenly felt something was wrong.

So he put his hands next to his ears and listened carefully, as if he didn't quite believe his ears.

But after listening for a while, he was sure that he heard correctly.

"Father, listen...it seems that there is only the sound of wind and rain left outside. Even if I try my best to listen, I can no longer hear the sound of killing...What is going on?

....." Xu Wei said with a look of surprise and uncertainty.

Xu Wenruo sat there, as steady as a mountain, and said calmly: "What are you listening to...Whether it's victory or defeat, someone will naturally come to retaliate. You really don't know how to be calm..."

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a rush of footsteps outside the building.

"Report—report to your lord, urgent military information! Urgent military information!"

Xu Wenruo's expression changed slightly, but he still said calmly and solemnly: "Come in and report later..."

"Here!——"

The door was pushed open with great speed and force, and what came into view was a messenger soldier soaked in rain.

His steps were as fast as running, leaving long rain marks on the floor behind him.

But he saw him approaching Xu Wenruo in a few steps, kneeling on one knee, and was about to speak.

Xu Wenruo suddenly leaned forward and asked word by word: "Win? Or lose..."

"Your Majesty! A great victory! A great victory!..." The messenger's face was filled with joy and excitement, and his voice could not suppress the trembling as he shouted loudly.

"Master Jianshu...a great victory?" Although Xu Wenruo's expression was calm, if you look closely, it is not difficult to find that the corners of his eyebrows, eyes and mouth are twitching slightly.

"Yes! Mr. Jianshu took the 500 garrison of Ba City tonight, stole out of the city, and robbed Liu Xuanhan's camp. Now Liu Xuanhan's camp is in chaos, with countless casualties. Now Mr. Jianshu has attracted the victorious troops and is returning.

On the way!" the messenger said loudly.

Xu Wenruo, who was originally calm, stood up suddenly when he heard the words, suddenly looked up to the sky and laughed loudly, saying loudly: "How pitiful God! How pitiful God! Xiao Jianshu is indeed destiny! Oh destiny!"

As soon as he finished saying this, a burst of cheers came from the window, like a boiling river and sea.

Xu Wenruo held the feather fan in his hand, flicked his sleeves, and said loudly: "Xu Yi, my son! I will go to the commander's hall with my father to beat the drum and gather the generals! At the same time, the city gate will be opened. I will personally lead all the soldiers out of the city to meet the official.

Mr. Shu!"

With that said, Xu Wenruo stepped off the high platform in one step and walked out.

But he forgot that he had already taken off his shoes and socks when he got to the high platform.

Now when he walked away, he was barefoot.

Xu Wei was so panicked that he hurriedly bent over to take his shoes and socks, rushed from behind, and chased after him: "Father, wait a minute, I haven't put on my shoes and socks yet!"

"Can't wait any longer! Hurry up!"

When Xu Wei stepped out of the hall, he looked up at the sky.

The rain stops and the wind stops.

On one side of the palace corner, a crescent moon is outlined.
