He got up and stretched and said: "It's not early, I didn't expect Hui'er to be a master of the game, if I play against her, I won't be much better than you, the second brother is down to this time, even if you win, you will lose." ”

Hu's face was extremely ugly, she didn't expect that this inconspicuous girl in front of her would have such superb chess skills. She must have been training for a long time. Now that she has been playing for so long, Nan Rongxuan always wins, and it's not glorious, after all, she is just a teenage girl.

Nan Rongxuan got up and looked at Mu Hui, stretched out his thumb and said, "Okay, Mu Hui, I admit defeat." I'll try to draw as many paintings as I can for you, but I've never been good at figure drawing, so don't dislike it. ”

Mu Hui got up and said with a smile: "Uncle is too famous, the chrysanthemum painted by my uncle is a must for Zhaoguo, I am just lucky......

Nan Rongxuan looked at Hu Shi and said with a smile: "Sister-in-law, I admit defeat......

Hu's face was a little ugly and said, "Don't worry, my gift will be sent to Mu Hui's Yazhu tomorrow." Well, it's time for dinner, so I'm going to order someone to prepare some food and stay and eat together......"

"I'm going to go back to figuring out the paintings, so I don't have to eat. Farewell ......"

Nan Rongxuan kept having a smile on his face on the way back. Seeing that the fish in the creek had been put in, he returned to his yard with peace of mind. Although he lost, no one would laugh at a top painter who lost a game of chess. And more importantly, he will have plenty of reasons to find Mu Hui in the future, because she is the beauty in his paintings.

When walking through the garden, Sunset pointed to the small fish swimming in the stream and said loudly to Mu Hui: "Miss, look! That little fish is really alive! I'm still swimming in the creek! ”

Mu Hui looked over with the fingers of the setting sun, and really saw a small fish. It looks like the dead one. She recalled what Nan Rongxuan said, and a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.

"The second master of our house is really powerful, and the dead fish can be saved...... she suddenly understood why he had to pull himself to play chess today, it turned out that he was dragging time. He didn't expect that his chess skills were not bad, and he even put on a painting of his own. Mu Hui thought about it and laughed out loud.

Xiyue looked at Mu Hui and laughed, and straightened up and said, "Miss, you are competing in the house, and we are waiting outside the house." Several of our maids also bet. I bet you to win, and you come to win all this broken silver. Something to eat for you in the evening. ”

Sunset followed suit: "That's it! Miss, you didn't see the faces of those maids! It's fun to win! It's not a matter of money, the key is to relieve anger! Haha......"

Yu Feiyang stood on the roof and watched them talk and laugh back to Yazhu, he almost couldn't meet his opponent when he played chess. Mu Hui followed him to play chess for three years. If he lost to Nan Rongxuan, he would feel ridiculous.

The night breeze was blowing, and he stood in the treetops not far away, staring at the faintly glowing window. He could feel Mu Hui's mind begin to become more thoughtful. At least now those people don't think of her as a country man who doesn't know anything.

In the Taishi's Mansion, in a dimly lit alchemy room, a white-haired old man wearing a Taoist robe, holding a gossip pan, frowned. In the entire room, only the flame of the alchemy furnace flickered from time to time.

He remembered that in the evening, the guards came to report that all the people who were locked up in the mountain behind Qishou were gone. Originally, it was not easy to find a man and woman who could match their birthday in the capital. Now those people are suddenly gone again.

Today, he went to the palace and reported to the emperor that he would be able to practice the elixir in a few days. But in the afternoon, those who used it for alchemy suddenly disappeared. He ordered people to search the mountain, but there has been no response until now.

The emperor's body is getting worse day by day, and his ** desire for immortality is getting stronger and stronger. Taishi could feel the burning longing in his eyes. If he hadn't practiced the elixir he had promised him this time, he might not be able to save his life.

"Report! My lord, this is a letter from Qi Shou Mountain......"

After reading it, the Taishi threw it into the alchemy furnace. It was as if they had vanished into thin air. It is said that there is a lot of snow on the mountain that does not melt, and even if it does, the soil becomes very soft. Even if they fled, they should have left footprints, and even if there were no footprints, there should be traces of people passing by.

What puzzled him was that. Those who searched for it found no clues, and that's how people disappeared into thin air. He frowned, although there were still a few months left before the day of the elixir for the emperor, if he couldn't find a suitable candidate for his birthday within two days, he would definitely miss the time. If there is a half-point difference in time, it is impossible to live forever.

He turned around and sighed, if the emperor's path can't be followed, then he can only put the hope of life on the prince. The crown prince is a child he trained single-handedly, and if he can let the current emperor return to the west, he will save a lot of trouble.

Thinking of this, the corners of his mouth rose slightly, if he wanted to help the crown prince, it would definitely not be enough to rely on the strength in his hands. Although the Gongyi family has strong troops, most of them are stationed at the border passes, and most of the troops of the Nanrong family are controlled by the emperor, and even most of the guards guarding the palace are from the Nanrong family. Only a few were guarding the border. Xian Yu's army is mainly stationed in Yicheng, which is more than 100 kilometers away from here.

He was pleased. He made the right choice and let his only daughter marry Nan Rongmu. And Nan Rongxuan is also his protégé. The night was getting thicker and thicker, but he was exceptionally awake. He lit an oil lamp, and although his head was full of white hair, his face was glowing red, and he did not look like an old man in his twilight at all, not even a single wrinkle. It gives an eerie feeling.

"Let them not worry, even if they flatten Qi Shoushan for me, they must find people! If they can't find anyone, all of them will never come back! ”

"Yes!" The soldier immediately trotted away.

The early morning sun shone into the house, and Mu Hui's mood also improved. She got up and stretched out to watch the sunset fall asleep on the stool next to the fire, and her heart warmed.

Don't look at the sun outside, but it's really cold these days. The sunset must have lit the stove because he was afraid that he would be cold at night. No wonder she sleeps peacefully at night. She woke up when she got up to put her cloak over Sunset.

She opened her eyes slightly and said, "Miss, are you awake?" I'm going to get you something to eat. ”

Mu Hui shook her head and helped her up from the stool, and said gently, "Is your leg numb?" Don't do this next time, if you're afraid I'll be cold, just cover me with two more quilts. Don't cook to catch up on sleep, how about I cook something delicious for you today? (To be continued.) )
