Chapter 264: It's hard to resist hospitality
After General Zhennan went back, he felt scared when he thought about it, the prince clearly knew Xiao Jiu's identity, so what did he mean by what he said to himself?
What does it mean that I can't imagine that the military advisor and Rong Heng are so familiar?
Actually, for the relationship between that woman and Heng'er, especially Heng'er's feelings for that woman, the prince sees it in his eyes, right? The reason why he didn't break it was because he took care of the woman's thoughts.
"Hey......"
I really don't know when Heng'er will understand that some things are destined from the beginning, and those who don't belong to themselves won't belong to them after all.
No, he must talk to Heng'er again, lest Heng'er become more and more wrong, otherwise when it is irreparable, I don't know what will happen......
Inside the tent.
The man hadn't opened his mouth since he said "Xiao Jiu, you stay", his eyes were lowered intently, but he didn't know what he was thinking, as if it wasn't him who let her stay at all.
Su Ziran was only surprised at first, but as time went on, she gradually became a little uneasy.
Obviously he asked her to stay, but now what does it mean to not say a word?
Raising her eyes slightly, she saw a trace of imperceptible coldness in the man's deep facial features, and she was shocked: "Lord Wang......"
Where did anyone offend him?
The man's tight jaw loosened slightly, and a deep and complicated glance swept towards her, completely different from Fang Cai's smiling appearance, she couldn't tell what was different, but now he didn't seem to want to take care of her.
I suddenly felt a sigh in my heart, why did I let her stay if I didn't want to take care of her?
Pouting, Su Ziran couldn't help but feel strange, how could a person's mood change so quickly, obviously nothing had happened since their discussion ended, how did she suddenly provoke him?
"Xiao Jiu, how about you accompany this king to play a game of chess?"
"Huh?" The corners of Su Ziran's eyes twitched slightly, and she didn't know why for a while, she was not in the situation at all.
"Chess, will you?"
The man actually repeated the words again in a good-natured manner, and as he spoke, he took out a delicate chessboard and placed it slowly, which was very different from the appearance of Fang Cai's deep sea.
Su Ziran could see that this man was not as fast as him turning his face when he turned books!
The candle flame ripples, the jumping fire falls on the delicate and exquisite chessboard, the criss-crossing dark lines reflect the translucent light, and the jasper-like delicate and clear chess pieces shine brightly.
Between the flow of his eyes, Su Ziran chuckled, and stretched out his hand to stop the man's swing: "Lord Wang, how can you make a game of chess without a bet?" ”
Unexpectedly, she would be like this, the man was slightly stunned, but instead hooked his lips, and the gloomy haze in his deep phoenix eyes was swept away, and it was shining.
"What does Xiao Jiu want?"
"Well...... the words paused slightly, she frowned, as if she was meditating, "The villain hasn't thought about it yet, why don't you wait for when the villain thinks of it, and then tell the prince?" ”
The man narrowed his eyes and nodded, "Yes." ”
I didn't expect him to speak so well, Su Ziran suddenly smiled and his eyebrows crooked, and immediately added: "The villain has another proposal." ”
The man raised his eyebrows, raised his eyes slightly, glanced at the arm that she had grabbed in her hand and forgot to let go, his eyes turned slightly, and he slowly withdrew his gaze: "En." ”
"Actually, we usually play chess like the prince, which is a bit boring and old-fashioned, why don't we change to a new way of playing today?"
In fact, Su Ziran also felt that she had made some progress today, but she was selfish in doing so.
Although she doesn't know how this man's chess is playing, but this kind of thing that tests strategy and scheming is not something that comes easily to this man, so the possibility of her winning him is too small, it is better to use her own strengths and attack his weaknesses, and maybe she can win a trick.
The man seemed to be interested, a bright streamer flashed in his bright phoenix eyes, and he smiled: "Let's hear it." ”
Su Ziran thought about how to say it more appropriately, and in the end, a simple sentence encapsulated the essence: "The five sons are connected in a line, both horizontally and vertically." ”
The man is very knowledgeable, but this kind of chess method is unheard of, and he can't help but be surprised, and looks at her with a slight raised eyebrow: "This is Xiao Jiu's own chess path?" ”
"Of course not!" Su Ziran twitched slightly, where did she have that ability?
"It's called backgammon, and my husband taught it when I was young."
Putting the sunspots on the chessboard used for demonstration into the chess cup, she raised her head and smiled: "Is the prince interested in giving it a try?" ”
The man suddenly narrowed his phoenix eyes, Xiao Jiu, Xiao Jiu, have you forgotten that you are just a soldier from a poor country, where did you come from a young gentleman?
The sentence "Are all your strange ideas taught by your husband" was almost about to blurt out, but fortunately, the last trace of reason remained, his eyebrows condensed slightly, and his eyes were lowered.
"Xiao Jiu withdrew the chess game before he came to ask what the king meant, don't you think it's too late?"
Hearing the undisguised ridicule in his words, Su Ziran immediately became happy: "If the prince is unwilling, it's a big deal that the villain will go back!" ”
The man glanced at her, and there was a hint of pampering in his tone that he didn't even realize himself: "It's hard to be gracious." ”
Su Ziran's eyes lit up, and with a "snap", she was the first to drop a black letter.
The man followed, the candle flame shrouded his whole person in a faint dusk, hazy and handsome, phoenix eyes against the light, although he couldn't see the look clearly, the slight curvature of the corner of his mouth clearly showed that he was in a good mood at the moment.
The two of them played like this, and neither of them had the upper hand, but with a cup of tea, the chessboard was already black and white.
"Lord Wang, the villain has never taken so long to play a game of chess!"
"Huh?"
"In the past, when I played this chess with someone, it was always a moment, and the villain could kill the opponent without leaving a piece of armor!"
The man nodded, raised his eyebrows meaninglessly, and said, "Oh, is it? ”
If Su Ziran didn't understand what he meant by "yes" a moment ago, then at his suggestion, the moment her eyes fell on the chessboard, her eyes widened in astonishment.
What's the situation?
Her eyebrows frowned, she narrowed her eyes slightly, staring at the exquisite chessboard in front of her for a moment, counting the number of black and white children on it again and again, but finally she still shook her head in disbelief.
"Impossible...... It's absolutely impossible! ”
Do you think she has been in the backgammon field for more than ten years, and today she was defeated by a beginner?
How is this possible!
