After the two left the Li Mansion, Xin Yi asked Zhong Yi to send Dou An back to the house first, report safety to his relatives, and then come back to send him to the next place to play chess.

Zhong Yu stepped on the snow without a trace, his body was like a ghost, like a rolling bird, carrying Xin Yi, brushing and walking through Chang'an City. In less than half an hour, Xin Yi's feet hit the ground and he was next to a lake.

"I will wait for the girl in the dark. When the girl is done, she will follow the code call, and she will show up to send the girl back. Zhong Yu put down Xin Yi and said "offended".

Xin Yi straightened his hair and clothes, shook his head and said, "I'm afraid that it will take a long time to go." You don't have to wait for me here. Let's go back to the house to see if your son-in-law has woken up. After you stay two hours, you will come here to pick me up. ”

Zhong Yu clenched his fists in agreement, but he paused again and hesitated, "Miss Xin." Are you really sure that you saved the Xinfu this time? It's Longxi Li again, it's the concubine, and it's the royal family, and your chess pieces are too terrifying. If it succeeds, everyone will naturally be happy, and if it doesn't, I'm afraid it will be a gamble. ”

- Of course, my son-in-law will not watch you gamble with your life, and will probably protect you with a sword, a mountain and a fire, or even a life.

Zhong Yu is worried about the son he regards as a god, but it is not Xinyi. But now that the two are tied to a heap, there is no need for him to say this.

"I'm not sure. Xin Yi's answer almost without hesitation made Zhong Yu's heart chuckle, but the woman's next answer blocked all his doubts.

"If you don't gamble, you will die. If it is gambling, there is still a chance of life. Ordinary players win chess, clever players win life, and only the pinnacle players win death. ”

Bet with God, the chips are life and death. Gambling on this life, betting on this proud bone, paying for this hot blood, just asking for a clear conscience.

Respect gradually rose between Zhong Yu's eyebrows. He fell silently on one knee and saluted Xin Yi. It was a general salute to face Jiang Li with him, and he offered his recognition and loyalty to the woman who would stand next to his son.

Politeness. Zhong Yu turned around and left, his figure like a night owl, and he disappeared in a few blinks.

Xin Yi retracted her gaze and turned her head to look at the lake in front of her, the three gilded seals of the "Taiye Pavilion" on the pavilion in the center of the lake, and a handsome shadow of silk clothes in the pavilion, which aroused some waves in her eyes.

In the stunned shock of the palace maid and eunuch who passed by, she walked calmly to the pavilion, and a dozen or so Jin Wuwei brushed their swords out of the sheath-

"Who trespasses on the palace prison! The prison country is here, dare to be presumptuous!"

"Stand down. The handsome figure in the pavilion didn't turn his head, but waved his hand leisurely, as if he didn't seem to be curious about which madman had come.

Jin Wuwei looked at Xin Yi suspiciously, and really felt that the latter's embarrassed clothes and scars all over his body were dazzling, but they didn't dare to disobey the order, and after hesitating a few times, they finally retreated.

"Xin Yi paid a visit to Lord Jianguo. Adult Chitose Chitose Chitose. "Xin Yi bowed down to his skirt, neither humble nor arrogant.

Li Jingpei held a boxwood painting easel in front of him, and he faced the Taiye Pool, holding the wolf in his hand, and the lake and mountains on the scroll had become most of them.

"Miss Xin doesn't have to be polite. The day before yesterday, the queen mother said that the spring water of the liquid pool thawed, green and green, looking strange and delightful, the king painted this liquid pool for the queen mother. Miss Xin came over to take a look, but is it still impossible?" Li Jingpei chatted while drawing, and her expression was natural and peaceful.

The corners of Xin Yi's lips hooked, and he didn't step forward: "No matter how green the spring water of Taiye Pool is, it will be dyed red by blood." My Xin Mansion is still in danger, Wang Jian's forbidden army is still surrounded outside the palace, why don't you save my Xin Mansion first, and then make up for this painting?"

"A few dead people, even if there are hundreds or thousands, how can they compare to the smile of the queen mother. How about this king finish painting this spring water first, and then come to save Xinfu from a catastrophe?" Li Jingpei painted carefully and seriously, not caring at all.

Xin Yi's fingertips tucked in his wide coat. However, the smile on the corner of his lips was still tame: "The folk girl can wait, but Wang Jian can't wait." If you save the Xinfu disaster, you can also get a smile from your mother, what does the Lord of the Prison Country think?"

The wolf's pen froze.

Li Jingpei's eyes flashed: "How can I say this." ”

"The queen wants my life. Therefore, he ordered the prison to take the king of Jin and borrowed Wang Jian's hand to drop the sword. Yes or no?" Xin Yi estimated that he touched the sky, asked one after another, and did not dare to delay.

God knows if Wang Jian, who inexplicably retired from the army, will make a comeback on the day she leaves the house. Before her reinforcements arrived, the Wang family's knife was cut down first.

She didn't know the reason for Wang Jian's withdrawal, so she had to plan for the worst. Maybe it's peaceful in January, maybe it's floating in the next moment, every minute and every second is urging people's lives.

"Not bad. Li Jingpei's answer was unhurried, and he didn't care at all about the life he was talking about, which was the woman in front of him.

"Then dare to ask the prison country, the queen mother wants my life, does she really only want my life, or do you want to get rid of me and help the prison country get what you want?" Xin Yi also said normally, his own life seemed to have nothing to do with it.

Li Jingpei's eyebrows were cold. The bottom of his eyes suddenly turned violent.

He didn't care that Xin Yi knew what he "wanted", anyway, Sima Zhao's heart, the chess game was an open secret. What he cares about is how Xin Yi knows the queen's intentions, including the destiny of the chess list to "choose the king".

"What did he tell you?" After a long time, Li Jingpei burst out of the cold words between his teeth.

Jiang Li told you. Or did he tell you in another capacity. Li Jingpei did not say it explicitly.

However, Xin Yi blinked in confusion: "He, which one, the people's daughter can say this, but she was forced by the Wang family to be anxious and boldly guessed." Otherwise, how could the prison state, which has always only listened to Wang Jian's orders, intervene on his own. Otherwise, how could the Empress of Great Wei, who has no grievances and no enemies, get into trouble with a little girl. The only reason to think about it is to the end of the game: that position. ”

That location. Xin Yi didn't say it explicitly.

It's the truth. She didn't know what the chess rankings were. What she has done so far is only by one calculation, by one bet.

Finally, by a guts.

The fierceness in Li Jingpei's eyes suddenly dissipated. changed to that indifferent and peaceful look again: "That's it." Leave it aside for the time being, let's just talk about the chips you can use to change the mother's smile. The chips are enough, it's not that this king can't save Xinfu, the chips are not enough, and the Taiye pool under this king's brush is afraid that it will become blood red. ”

Xin Yi took a deep breath, suppressed his curiosity about the "him" in Li Jingpei's mouth, and said in a clear voice: "If I Xin Yi is loyal to King Jin from now on, will I save the prison country or not?"

The wolf on the scroll shuddered. Blur a large cloud of ink flowers.

"Ridiculous. This king still forbids the third emperor brother, but you have to follow him. Why doesn't this king cut you both together, and save the arm of your enemy?" Li Jingpei smiled coldly, but his laughter was a little unsteady.

It was just a hint of instability, but it made Xin Yi smile confidently.

Sure enough, Li Jingpei is not that simple. He's smart.

However, the smarter he is, the more likely she is to win this game.

"Although it was under house arrest, the prison country did not dare to kill the king of Jin. Because Wang Jian didn't plan to kill the King of Jin yet, it was okay for the prison country to intervene without authorization, but it would not be such a big violation of Wang Jian. Xin Yi spoke eloquently, word by word.

"The emperor is still patrolling Jiangnan. If Wang Jian kills the prince if he is not in Beijing, no matter what the reason, he will be deducted as a great rebel. And Wang Jian is just a greedy man who wants to do what he wants, has a good reputation, and is famous in history. Otherwise, he would not have gone to great lengths to support the prison country, and would simply be like the Lu family, and he would have won it by himself. ”
