"If you're impatient, go have a cup of tea and come back." Shu Qingyue had been studying the chessboard with her head down, completely undisturbed by Ning Sichen, and said to herself.

Ning Sichen looked at Shu Qingyue with a focused look, and he no longer urged her, sitting quietly on the side, patiently waiting for her to take the next move.

After about a cup of tea, Shu Qingyue hesitated, and finally moved a chess piece.

However, she only took a few more moves than before, and was stopped by Ning Sichen again.

"Wait, I'm not going here." Shu Qingyue said, and without Ning Sichen's consent, she put back the "horse" that Ning Sichen had just walked with her left hand, and moved the "cannon" that she had moved two squares to the right by three squares to the left with her right hand.

Ning Sichen also began to say a word about her repentance, and then let it go.

The result of the two continuing to play was that Ning Sichen had been taking Shu Qingyue's army, and she had been regretting chess.

"General!"

"No, I didn't see you have a horse here."

"General!"

"No, no!"

When playing chess, Shu Qingyue was like a child who had not grown up, willful, and quite unreasonable.

Such a scene is familiar.

In the past, every time she played chess with her second brother, she didn't admit defeat, every time she was generalized, she had to regret chess, and Shu Zhenxuan always let her, until she won and was happy, a game of chess was successfully over. If you are not the closest person, how can you spoil her and spoil her like this? Shu Qingyue picked up a "pawn" on the chessboard, and looking at the chess piece, she couldn't help but think of the past and her second brother. In the battle of Shanyang City, Shu Zhenxuan's whereabouts are unknown, and until now, there is still no news of Shu Zhenxuan. However, to this day, Shu Qingyue still doesn't want to believe that her second brother is dead. He loves her so much, how can he bear to leave her alone? He must still be alive, but something happened to him, so he couldn't come back to her.

"Eat your horse." Shu Qingyue used her own "pawn" to eat one of Ning Sichen's "horses".

"Eat the car." Ning Sichen used a cannon to knock out one of Shu Qingyue's "cars".

"Count you ruthless." Shu Qingyue glared at Ning Sichen fiercely.

In fact, Shu Qingyue's chess skills are not bad, but Ning Sichen is better.

"General!"

Ning Sichen will lead Shu Qingyue again, but this time, Shu Qingyue has no chess to move, even if he regrets the chess, it will not help, a game of chess, and finally ended in Ning Sichen's victory.

And in this game of chess, she and him played for a full hour.

After sitting in the courtyard for too long, Shu Qingyue suddenly felt a little cold.

At this time, the maid just brought hot tea and pastries.

"Do you want to go down again?" Ning Sichen rearranged the chess pieces and asked Shu Qingyue.

"Another day." Shu Qingyue said.

I saw her pale face, a little lonely.

Ning Sichen thought that her loss was just because she lost the chess, looking at her who was gloomy, he had a moment of regret, a little regretful, should he let her just now. Ning Sichen has always been a loner, he has never thought about who he wants to get along with, and he is not good at communicating with people. At this time, he obviously cared about her feelings in his heart, but he didn't know how to be good to her, and he didn't know when to follow her and when to indulge her?

Shu Qingyue was distracted, and she didn't know what Ning Sichen was thinking at the moment.

She took the teacup and poured two cups of hot tea, one moved to Ning Sichen and one in her hand. She drank the tea, the warm water flowing down her throat and into her body, and her whole body warmed up.

Ning Sichen had already asked people to take the chess away, while Shu Qingyue was still sitting in place and did not get up to leave.

The sky was getting darker, and the wind in the courtyard was getting colder, Shu Qingyue poured herself another cup of hot tea, her hand was on the outside of the cup, and the temperature of the tea passed through the wall of the cup to her palm.

"General Ning, can you sit with me for a while?" Shu Qingyue said.

"Absolutely." Ning Sichen said.

The two sat quietly, but for a long time, neither of them spoke.

"I heard that Ning Sichen was only exiled to Pingshun Kingdom, and by chance, he became the general of Pingshun Kingdom, and General Ning himself is not from Pingshun Country?" Shu Qingyue asked tentatively. She knew very little about his past, and she wanted to know more about him. As for the details of his becoming the general of Ping Shunguo, including the relationship between Ning Feixue, Huo Yunyang, etc., Shu Qingyue understated it.

Ning Sichen looked at Shu Qingyue seriously, it seemed that she had investigated him before. It's just that how much did she find out, and how much did she know about him?

Shu Qingyue also looked at him, waiting for his answer.

"As Miss Shu heard, I am actually from the Principality of Shu." Ning Sichen still answered her.

"Are you from the Duchy of Shu?" Shu Qingyue didn't seem to expect it, and she was a little surprised. "Then General Ning and Rong Fei are from the same country."

When Shu Qingyue mentioned Yue Rongfei, Ning Sichen's eyes changed almost imperceptibly, although it was fleeting, she was still keenly aware of it.

Why did Ning Sichen's expression change when he talked about Yue Rongfei? Just because both of them are from the Duchy of Shu? No, Shu Qingyue had told Ning Sichen about Yue Rongfei's life experience earlier, and he clearly knew that Yue Rongfei was from the Principality of Shu. Then why, when she mentioned Yue Rongfei's name, his expression still changed? Is it because of something else?

"General Ning is like a god, I don't know where the division is?" Shu Qingyue asked again. In the battle of Shan Yang City, it can be seen that Ning Sichen's attainments in the art of war and strategy are extremely profound, this is by no means a Cheng dù that can be achieved by talking about soldiers on paper, someone must have instructed him, who is that person? As far as Shu Qingyue knew, the most powerful general in the Principality of Shu was none other than Yue Rongfei's father, Ruan Lingtian, but Shu Qingyue really couldn't think of what Ning Sichen would have to do with Ruan Lingtian.

Shu Qingyue felt more and more that there were still a lot of things hidden in Ning Sichen.

Ning Sichen was silent, thinking about it, this question is not very easy to answer. Or maybe he didn't know what to say to her. The past events, one by one, seem to happen independently, but he ever thought that there were inextricable relationships, and in the dark, it seemed that everything was destined a long time ago. As long as Ning Sichen pulls out a line, it will lead to a series of things, if it is then, I am afraid that he and she will not be able to sit together as calmly as they are now.

"General Ning is inconvenient to say, so I didn't ask." Shu Qingyue saw that Ning Sichen had a hidden intention, so she clicked until she reached and didn't ask him again. As long as there is a clue that Ning Sichen is from the Duchy of Shu, it will be much easier for her to find out what happened to him in the past. At that time, Shu Qingyue didn't know that the truth was never much crueler than not knowing.

"It's cold, let's go back to the room." Ning Sichen said to her.

"Hmm." Shu Qingyue answered, and then she got up.

"Also, Yunyang Gong is here again, no matter what she says or does, you just ignore her." Ning Sichen said. Huo Yunyang's morning visit had already been reported to him. Ning Sichen knew Huo Yunyang's temperament, and if he wanted Huo Yunyang to be honest and not cause trouble, it was impossible, but as long as Shu Qingyue stayed in the East Garden, he could still guarantee that she would not be harmed by Huo Yunyang.

"The princess is just a little petty, it's okay." Shu Qingyue said. From Huo Yunyang's point of view, Shu Qingyue could also understand Huo Yunyang's hatred for her father and Chu Huiguo.

Regarding Huo Yunyang, the two did not talk about more.

Shu Qingyue finally went back to her room.

Ning Sichen watched her walk into the room on the far right, while he was still standing in place. The cold wind was blowing, but his already deep eyes were deeper than ever.
