Another picture of Three Friends CHinese Chess from ¹Ï»¡¤¤°ê¥j¥N¹CÃÀ.This book provides the following poem of ¾G®Ê¼w, depictting the rules and the tactics about ¤T¤Í´Ñ.

The picture does not show the palace(¤E®c) pattern. In fact there are three palaces in the rules.

Now, I understand the move of unpromoted 'ºX' in according to 'ºX¥X¨â¨B¡A«eÅXª½½Ä': 'ºX' only step 2 squares(maybe also 1?) forward. But I could't confirm the promoted piece.
