Chapter 41: Gambling Drama
After completing the mission of this mission, Qin Yu left Zhaoguo with Yue'er.
His Royal Highness said that he had to go to the market to buy something before going back, and Yue'er asked what it was, but His Highness didn't say.
As a result, when the two of them arrived at the market, Qin Yu chose a piece of jade pendant, and he said that the jade produced here in Zhaoguo was the most famous.
"Did you buy this jade for me?" Yue'er asked curiously.
"The beauty of jade is like the virtue of a gentleman. This jade has the qualities of a gentleman such as benevolence, wisdom, righteousness, courtesy, music, loyalty, faithfulness, heaven, earth, virtue, and Tao. There is a sentence in the "Book of Songs" that 'the gentleman of words and thoughts, and the warmth is like jade'. It has endowed Meiyu with so many human qualities that people refer to the humble gentleman as 'gentle as jade'. After Qin Yu finished speaking, he continued to look at this jade pendant, this jade pendant was crystal clear and transparent, and it was a high-grade jade.
"You've said so much and still haven't answered my question?" Yue'er said impatiently.
Qin Yu bought the jade pendant, but he didn't tell Yue'er.
"This time, I finally did not disappoint my father, and completed this mission without dishonoring my mission. The next step is definitely to have a good time. "It's rare that Gongzi Qin Yu would say this, Yue'er is very happy.
The two of them visited almost the entire market, from morning to evening, eating, drinking, and playing.
The journey from Zhaoguo to Northern Dynasty took ten days, mainly because Yue'er was tired every day.
Walking is tired of feet, riding a carriage is disgusted with bumps on the carriage, riding a horse, just say that the horse is not clean and smelly, anyway, it is all kinds of complaints.
It took ten days to finally return to the Northern Dynasty, and when Qin Yu and them returned, King Zhao sent troops to defend the Northern Dynasty before.
When the Western Zhou army saw that King Zhao had sent a large number of soldiers, they retreated to Guanzhong. At this time, the ten-day appointment had arrived, and King Zhao also sent his minister Meng Qing to send Wen Yuan to the Northern Dynasty.
The king of the Northern Dynasty was overjoyed, and the first thing His Royal Highness the Crown Prince Qin Yu did after returning to the Northern Dynasty was to enter the palace to restore his life, and the king set up a banquet for the prince to celebrate.
……
At this time, some people are happy and some are worried, in the general's mansion, General Yan is playing Liubo chess with Changping Jun.
These six chess pieces are ancient games, a total of twelve chess pieces, six black and six white, two people play each other, each holding six chess pieces, hence the name six games.
The Liubo chess board is designed with an invisible Tai Chi Bagua diagram, and Tai Chi gives birth to two instruments - black and white two fish; Two rituals give birth to four images - four dots; Four elephants give birth to gossip - the surrounding eight directions. The four corners are yin, the four sides are yang, and the center is taiji.
General Yan was an impatient man, and he just sat up after playing chess for a while: "Didn't you say that if you let the prince go this time, he must let him go and have no return?" Why did he make a great contribution now? ”
"General, don't be impatient!" Changping Jun then played chess: "This is not careful, and it will become a 'five white', and I can kill your important chess pieces at will now." Changpingjun is still pondering in the game of chess.
"You're holding your breath!" General Yan had no intention of playing chess at all now, and he stood up.
"Since our Royal Highness the Crown Prince likes to make meritorious contributions so much, then let's be a favor and praise his merits." Chang Pingjun put down the chess pieces in his hand and turned his head to look at General Yan.
"I'm getting more and more incomprehensible about what you're doing now?" General Yan is a rough man, and he has always disliked Changping Jun to speak so detouringly.
"It seems that the current Northern Dynasty has been comfortable for too long, so that some people have forgotten the merits we have made and forgotten the value of our existence." Changpingjun has always been very calm.
"So...... Now it's time to remind certain people, general, don't worry, you just wait to see a good show! Changping Jun's eyes showed a trace of imperceptible weirdness, and there seemed to be something deeper hidden in the dark eyes.
In this troubled world, whether you want to or not, you can't stay out of it. And in this power struggle game called Tianxia, in the end, there are only two outcomes, success and failure.
While Qin Yu was indulging in the joy of the victory that had just been made, someone had already begun to plan the next political struggle.
After the banquet in the palace, it was already early then, and Qin Yu took the carriage back to the prince's mansion. At this time, Yue'er was already drunk, she was drunk in the palace, and in the end, she had to rely on two or three people to carry her back, but she didn't expect her to be so able to drink as a woman, which is really impressive.
Tonight's night is particularly beautiful, shining on the entire prince's mansion, which looks particularly bright. Or maybe it's because he's in a good mood today, so Qin Yu feels so beautiful when he looks at this night.
The clear glow of the moonlight sprinkled in the courtyard, although Qin Yu drank a lot of wine tonight, but at this moment his mind was very sober.
So he came out of the courtyard for a walk, and unconsciously walked to the west side hall, seeing that the candle was still lit here, His Royal Highness slowed down and walked over gently, only to see that Lingxi was still studying medicinal materials.
"It's so late and you haven't rested?" Qin Yu walked in slowly.
"Your Highness is back!" Lingxi put down the medicinal herbs in his hand, turned around and stood up, his side-facing face was as elegant as an orchid, clear and white as a snow lotus.
"Hmmm! Just came back from the palace and stopped by to have a look. Qin Yu looked at Lingxi's emaciated face, "It seems that you still haven't stopped in the days I've been away, why do you always read medical books and identify medicinal materials all night long?" ”
"That's because I want to get back the part of my lost memory, and if I can recover my memory as soon as possible, maybe I can find an antidote to the poison in His Highness." After Lingxi finished speaking, his face was full of lost emotions.
"So, you've ever lost your memory?" Qin Yu is becoming more and more interested in Lingxi's identity, and as far as Qin Yu's personality is concerned, whenever there is something worth scrutinizing, he always wants to figure it out and find out the answer.
