As soon as Xiangfu's words fell, the chess pieces held in Yan Jin's hands slipped from between his fingers, and finally fell on the chessboard, making a crisp sound.

Suddenly, she was a little flustered.

Yu Fang didn't like to associate with strangers, so after the tea was placed, Yan Jin asked the little maids to wait outside the house.

As soon as Yu Fang left, only Yan Jin and Shen Yanshan were left.

She and Shen Yanshan have never avoided suspicion, and Yan Jin has long been accustomed to such a mode of getting along......

It's just my father's side......

Yan Jin secretly exhaled badly in his heart, but he still pretended to be calm on the surface.

The next moment, a thick curtain was raised from outside the house, and Yan Jichang walked in.

During this period, the official affairs of the Ministry of Industry were too busy, and Yan Ji rarely returned to the house. Of course, there are other reasons why he is reluctant to come back.

Yan Jichang never expected that he would receive a message from the Xiaoyu clan early this morning, saying that the son of the Shen family had arrived in the Yan Mansion and had something to discuss with him.

At that time, after Lu Cun overheard it, the look in his eyes became a little solemn, Lu Cun sighed, and said softly, "What does he want to do again, didn't he say that he wanted to go back to the frontier?" ”

Yan Ji often listened, so he had to be silent.

His mentor Lu Cun is a very kind person, but for Shen Yanshan, Lu Cun rarely mentions this child!

The Lu family and the Shen family have been friends for many years, and when it came to the generation of Shen Chengxiu, the Duke of Dingguo, the two families even became in-laws. Lu Cun is Shen Yanshan's maternal grandfather, but during Shen Yanshan's years in the frontier, Lu Cun has never taken the initiative to contact this child. It's like I don't know what he is.

The relationship between the Lu family and the Shen family seems to be solid, but in fact it is not as perfect as it seems.

Shen Chengxiu and Mrs. Lu are said to have long been strangers.

There are other reasons why they are still maintaining a relationship as husband and wife.

Although Yan Jichang understands, he pretends to be confused many times! He didn't want to ask about things that his mentor didn't want to talk about.

"Let's go back to the house first!" Lu Cun's brows furrowed, and then he shook his head, "Go early and come back early!" ”

The Ministry of Industry is busy. Lu Cun and several adults. It's been a long time since I've been home.

Especially Lu Cun, after the winter, Lu Cun had a serious illness, and as a result, he recovered from the serious illness and hurriedly returned to the Ministry of Industry. Began to review batch after batch of official documents.

Yan Ji often feels sorry for his teacher. So these days have been helping to land in the air.

He nodded. Turning around, he put on a fox fur and rushed home.

It's just that Yan Jichang never thought that Shen Yanshan was not in his father's study. but in his own daughter's yard.

Yan Jichang frowned and hurried all the way over.

He remembered that when he first saw Shen Yanshan, the child was still very young, and his immature face was full of indifference.

Shen Yanshan always hides in a dark corner, like a hunting leopard, silently lurking! When he saw that child at that time, he knew that this young man would not be a simple character.

As a result, it didn't take long for Shen Yanshan to be sent to the frontier by Dingguo Gong.

When I saw Shen Yanshan again, they returned from other places together.

Heavy snow blocked the road, and his trip was delayed for a few days due to heavy snowfall! It just so happened that Shen Yanshan returned from the frontier and sent him a journey......

At that time, Shen Yanshan's face was the same as before, cold and with a faint sense of alienation.

His words were straightforward and undisguised......

Yan Jichang has been in officialdom for so many years, and it is the first time he has seen such a person! However, Yan Jichang had to admit that he would not feel too tired when talking to Shen Yanshan.

That person is too ignorant of human feelings, and he speaks straightforwardly, without half a point of room for maneuver.

When Yan Jichang came back to her senses, she saw Yan Jin standing up from the stool, and she smiled calmly, "Daddy, you're back!" ”

"Yes!" Yan Ji saw that his daughter did not look embarrassed, so he nodded, then walked into the house and whispered to Shen Yanshan, "I didn't treat the prince well today, isn't it here!" ”

Shen Yanshan put the chess pieces in his hand back into the chess box, and his expression was faint, "Lord Yan is outside!" I took the liberty to visit and bother you! ”

"How so!" Yan Jichang looked at the chess game on the chessboard, and then looked slightly stunned.

He has always believed that his chess skills are not bad, and he has never lost a single time in anyone's hands over the years! It's just that Yan Jichang regrets that his two daughters have not inherited his talents, and they are a terrible mess in chess.

It's just that today's chess game is a little strange.

What Yan Jin's chess skills look like, Yan Ji often knows better than anyone else......

However, the chess game in front of him is evenly matched.

Inverted ...... It's a game of instruction.

Yan Ji often smacked his tongue secretly, when he played against Yan Jin, if he wanted to play chess, he would feel very difficult. But looking at Shen Yanshan's appearance, it seems to be easy.

Yan Ji has often studied chess for many years, and suddenly has a feeling of meeting an opponent in chess.

Yan Jichang smiled and said, "Let the prince laugh, the little girl's chess skills are not good!" Thank you Shizi for being willing to guide her! ”

"Lord Yan is polite!" Shen Yanshan looked at the chess pieces on the chessboard, still expressionless, "If Lord Yan doesn't mind, can you teach a game!" ”

Shen Yanshan said what Yan Jichang wanted to say in his heart, Yan Jichang naturally nodded immediately, and then sat down and began to play against Shen Yanshan.

The most, Shen Yanshan holds the sunspot, and Yan Ji often holds the white.

Yan Jin looked at the scene in front of him and was somewhat surprised.

Sunlight streamed in through the carved window lattices, and the room was bright.

Shen Yanshan concentrated on dropping the chess pieces into the chessboard, with an elegant and calm posture.

Although her father is gentle, he has a somewhat eccentric temperament, especially the innate sense of alienation, which always leaves the people around him far away.

So, over the years, my father didn't have many friends around him.

However, today Shen Yanshan just said a few words casually, and his father sat down to play with Shen Yanshan, and occasionally said a few words on the chess game that she didn't understand, and it looked like it was also harmonious.

Although my father likes to play games, he rarely shows such a look...... This scene made her think for a while that it was not in a dream.

Peaceful, and peaceful.

Yan Jin narrowed his eyes slightly, and couldn't help but glance at his father.

I saw that the father, who rarely smiled on weekdays, actually raised the corners of his mouth slightly, and then said softly, "This step of the son of the world is indeed wonderful!" ”

"This is a move I saw in the endgame of a chess book...... Shen Yanshan didn't hide it, "Another day, I'll send someone to Lord Yan to send it over!" ”

Yan Jichang was slightly surprised when he heard it.

If the chess game is a solitary book, the price cannot be measured in gold and silver. Moreover, although it was not the first time he and Shen Yanshan had met, they were not so close.

Yan Jichang raised his head, and just as he was about to refuse, he heard an auspicious voice from outside the house.

Jixiang said outside the house, "Uncle is not good, Huilan Zhai's side, there is a commotion!" (To be continued......)
