In the Royal Palace.
Chu Qingyan and Xiao Xu are playing a game in the courtyard.
It was still Chu Qingyan who had failed miserably all the way and regretted chess. She put away the chess she played just now, and said confidently, "I didn't understand it just now, take it back first, and then play it when I think about it. Knowing my mistakes can improve a lot. You have to give me a chance to correct, don't you?"
Xining on the side couldn't help covering her eyes, God, such a rude person must not be her master! Inexplicably, she felt that the master was far from his usual dignified and gentle appearance in front of the Highness. From the morning to the present, the master has been playing tricks a few times, but His Highness doesn't seem to even frown.
She covered her eyes again, His Highness is too fond of the master, one is willing to fight and the other is willing to suffer, what else can she say
During this period of time, after witnessing the interaction between the master and His Highness, the sweetness of Yanluo and Ethereal, and the show of affection between the sleeves and Lord Lin, Xining felt that dog food was being sprinkled everywhere! She held her heart, feeling so sad.
For Chu Qingyan, playing chess with the big ice cube can satisfy her infinitely tolerant and pampered thoughts, and she can play rogue endlessly without being thrown out by the big ice cube. She can show her usual little dark thoughts. Incisively and vividly, she just likes to see him helpless but willing to let her.
In the past, his world was only black and white. He was calculated and fought on the battlefield. He had no hobbies and hobbies in his life. What she's done, playing chess and playing a rogue is just because she wants to make him happy and add some spice to his bland life!
As for Xiao Xu, playing a chess game with the little guy, if she brought up her usual distraction, she would not lose so badly, and she would not have to regret the chess game. However, he just likes to see her as she likes to do. In front of him, she can easily She was as transparent as a stream, without any calculations, she played the chess pieces based on her feelings and moods.
And she like this, let him put it down.
Because very few people can be as clean and transparent as water in front of another person, even in front of a loved one, almost no one will entrust themselves to one person, and no one can be so unreserved. Spread it out for people to see, and the little guy did it in front of him.
So he was willing to watch her try to find excuses to be a rogue, and he was willing to let her be a rogue for the rest of her life.
As a result, other people's elegant pastime has become the daily flirting of the young couple.
Just when the servants around them couldn't bear to look directly at such a scene of dog abuse, Tu Ling and Huo Ling came over. Of course, they really didn't want to disturb the fun of the two masters, but they really had urgent matters to deal with.
"Little Wangfei, our people are ready, when can we pick up the princess?" Huo Ling stood in front of the stone table and asked respectfully.
When Chu Qingyan was thinking about the next chess move, when she heard this question, she couldn't help but glance at the changing sky above her head, and frowned slightly, "If you are ready, the sooner the better, look at this day, I guess it will be later. There will be a heavy rain, which is not convenient for you to move flowers and trees, but it is very convenient for you to send people away, and the traces will be quickly erased when it rains, which is a good opportunity."
Huo Ling immediately nodded and said, "Okay, Shui Ling has been waiting at that place with a substitute, and his subordinates will get things done as soon as possible."
After finishing speaking, Huo Ling immediately left the courtyard after receiving the signal from Chu Qingyan.
After Huo Ling left, Tu Ling stepped forward and reported, "Master, General Li's troops have arrived outside the city, and they are expected to enter the city in the afternoon."
Xiao Xu held the hand of the chess piece for a while, and the corners of his lips curled slightly, "Very good, you continue to pay close attention to his movements, and report back when he enters the city."
"Yes." Tu Ling also followed.
At this time, Chu Qingyan threw the white chess in his hands, put his face in his hands on the stone table, his eyes were happy, "As soon as General Li arrives, you can hand over, right?"
Seeing that her mind was no longer on the chess game, Xiao Xu also put down the chess pieces, and said noncommittally, "Father's meaning is that as long as General Li returns to Beijing, it can be handed over."
Hearing this, she jumped up immediately, her face full of excitement, "Okay, I'm very much looking forward to your handover."
Xiao Xu stretched out his hand and pinched her delicate nose, and laughed, "I'm about to lose my job, but you are so happy."
She hurriedly leaned over to him, hugged his arm and said, "If you are unemployed, you can start a business! Our fief is so big, it's a little barren, but we can get rich with our hands, right? And we have so many people, to When the time comes, one by one, there is no need to worry about eating and drinking, and it can also lead the people to a well-off life!"
Xining, who was standing next to him, had a picture in his mind, Tuling, Huoling, Muling and the others were not swords but sickles. What they carried on their shoulders was not a weapon, but a pole. That picture was so beautiful that she dared not. Look!
On the other side, Jasper touched his chin and nodded, "In this way, my subordinates can raise a pond of fish, and then make braised fish, sweet and sour fish, boiled fish for the master..."
Xining's heart twitched, it was terrible!
But she also wanted to raise silkworms and grow mulberry leaves, and then she could weave clothes for her master.
Sure enough, it's not that the family doesn't enter the house.
Hearing what the little guy said, it seemed that all the plans for the future had already been conceived, and a soft smile could not be held at the corners of his mouth. He looked at the person squatting in front of him, reached out and stroked her head, and said in a low voice, "Okay, we Self-reliance, self-sufficiency, no need to look at people's faces."
"Yeah!" She nodded heavily.
Xiao Xu chuckled, and then said, "One thing is about being honest."
"What's the matter?" she asked, tilting her head.
"He found me yesterday and wanted to resign to the court a month after we left." Xiao Xu said slowly.
"Ah, you promised him?" she asked in surprise.
"No, I let him think about it for himself."
At this time, she was full of questions, "Well, why did he resign? I heard that he did a good job in that position. If it wasn't for his young age, he would have jumped three levels in a row for fear of being underestimated."
Xiao Xu looked at her deeply when he heard the words, "I originally believed that it was for you to become an official in the dynasty. Now that we are leaving here, he naturally doesn't want to stay any longer."
These words, like a stone falling on the calm lake, stirred up layers of waves.
Chu Qingyan looked at him in disbelief, "This—"
"He's not a man of power, so you should expect it."
She suddenly remembered the words he said before entering the court as an official, and she couldn't help but feel a surge of heat in her heart.
At this time, Xiao Xu stroked her long hair and said with relief, "Ayan, the people who stay by your side are very devoted and loyal to you, and you are already a successful leader."
She nodded, how fortunate she was to be able to follow with such an innocent heart!
