However, Dong Lincang didn't get her wish after all, so she just chuckled, "The eldest princess hasn't won yet, how can she ask the next word." If the eldest princess has a question in her heart, she should also win in the next game. ”

When he said this, he was also refusing in disguise.

Sihan knew it from the bottom of his heart, but he didn't intend to give up. It's just a game, although her chess skills are not good, but she is willing to try again, after all, although this Donglincang is good at chess, but the old horse always has a hoof, isn't it?

"Okay, then the palace and the son of Donglin, one more game." She spoke out indifferently, and as soon as these words fell, she began to pick up the white pieces on the chessboard into the chess box.

In this game, Donglin Cang still did not give in, and even intended to play with Sihan, but every time the chess pieces were exhausted, he was like the finishing touch, so that the whole chess game suddenly became bright and narrowly won.

Sihan frowned, did not admit defeat, and after answering Dong Lincang's painless question, he began to play against him again.

This time, the game was a few games in a row, and Sihan never won once, when he came back to his senses, I saw that the sky was also dark, dusk had come, her heart was tired of a few chances after all, and when the chess pieces were exhausted, she saw that Dong Lincang was about to fall his last son, her pupils shrank, raised her hand, and immediately robbed the sunspot at his fingertips, and then wrapped it in the palm of her hand, and the internal force surged, and the chess pieces suddenly turned into powder.

Dong Lincang was slightly stunned, and looked at Sihan in amazement, "What is the eldest princess doing?" ”

Sihan didn't reply to him, but said: "Donglin Gongzi has no chess pieces, and this game of chess will be a dead end." In this way, neither you nor this palace will lose or win, but if you and I ask each other a question, how about it? ”

The corner of Donglincang's eyes was slightly raised, and he suddenly smiled, "Since ancient times, it has been said that only villains and women are difficult to raise, but now I have seen it below." ”

Sihan never listened to his ridicule, and asked, "This palace asks you, is Lan Yeyu still dead?" Even Donglin Gongzi and Lan Yeyu were originally acquaintances? ”

Dong Lincang sighed, Wen Run's helpless gaze swept around Sihan's face a few times, and then said slowly: "The regent of your country is indeed not dead. ”

Is it?

When these words came into his ears, Sihan was not a little surprised, but although he was calm on the surface, deep in his heart, he was more or less relieved.

That guy is not dead after all.

Also, since ancient times, disasters have been left behind for thousands of years, and if that guy is so easy to die in the wolf's mouth, it will not be Lan Yeyu who makes her anxious but can't get rid of it.

Sihan couldn't help but take a few deep breaths, "Donglin Gongzi has known him for a long time?" ”

She asked again in a hurry.

However, as soon as these words came out, Dong Lincang didn't plan to tell the truth, but said: "The eldest princess said this, but she asked again." But the eldest princess only won in the next game, and in the next, she could only answer the eldest princess's question. ”

In that case, I'm not going to talk back, right?

Sihan raised the corners of his eyes, and was about to speak, Dong Lincang chuckled lightly and continued: "In the hunting ground that day, I did know that the regent of your country jumped up the tree to avoid the wolves, and with the strength of jumping on the tree, it was not too unusual to think about it, and the wolves were not the opponent of the regent of your country. Therefore, I will be so sure that the regent of your country is not dead, and I do not believe that he will die. Moreover, in the eyes of the next, the regent of your country is extraordinary, has a rich face, and is also a rich and noble person, so he is by no means short-lived. Oh, in the next history, I will look at the appearance a little, and most of the speculation is accurate, so the eldest princess does not have to worry too much about the life of the regent. And whether you know the regent of your country or not, the eldest princess doesn't need to be too curious and nervous, in the next, after all, she is an outsider, and after the end of the birthday of the king of Chu, she will go back to the seclusion and recuperate. ”

As he spoke, he raised his eyes and glanced at the sky, "The sky has sunk, I don't know, the eldest princess would like to have dinner here?" ”

"Yes."

Sihan's pupils shrank, and his voice was cold and indifferent.

Dong Lincang's eyes were slightly raised, but he didn't expect Sihan to agree again, and when he came back to his senses, he smiled at Sihan, and then didn't say more, just ordered the little guy outside the court: "Light the lamp and pass the meal." ”

The sky was completely dark, the lights were flickering, and the lights were full of light and shadow.

The night breeze gradually flourished, blowing the surrounding veils and curtains, the candle flames swaying, and the cold and thin meaning was also mixed with the cold wind, which was cold and biting.

Dong Lincang finally invited Sihan into the main hall.

As soon as the two of them sat down at the round table, the little servant brought all the night food into the hall, and then placed it on the round table very respectfully.

This meal was undoubtedly made by the British chef, and although the dishes were rich, most of them were vegetarian and not fatty.

Sihan ate a little too much, Dong Lincang looked at her carefully, and then sent someone to bring wine, saying that it was made with osmanthus flowers.

Sihan did not refuse, took the wine cup and drank, only to feel, this osmanthus brewed really mellow fragrance, the taste of wine is pure, after entering the abdomen, there is no spicy meaning, but after a while, there seems to be heat in the abdomen, spreading all over the body, it is a moment of effort, the whole person is also completely warm.

The coldness of his hands and feet was gradually washed away by this warmth, and Sihan's cold complexion gradually slowed down.

"The eldest princess likes this wine?" Dong Lincang smiled slightly and asked her softly.

Sihan said slowly: "I like it." ”

"The eldest princess is here, eating and drinking is unguarded, isn't the eldest princess afraid of poisoning the eldest princess like the Marquis of Anyi?" He asked again, this time with a slight hint of undisguised ridicule.

Sihan didn't put his words in his ears, but just handed him the wine cup.

He was taken off guard for a moment, and when he came to his senses, he smiled and poured wine into Sihan's wine cup again.

"Although this osmanthus brew is delicious, it should not be drunk too much. If not, the eldest princess would be drunk and lose her temper in front of her, and she would lose face. He spoke softly.

Sihan said lightly: "It is a rare opportunity to drink at the same table with the prince of the Great British East, whether you are drunk or not, it is just a pastime and memory." ”

As soon as these words fell, she raised her head and drank all the wine in the cup, and after putting down the wine cup, she replied to his words again, "The prince of Donglin is full of nobles, and even outstanding martial arts. If the prince of Donglin wants the life of the palace, he does not have to be extremely troublesome to save the palace from An Yihou first, and then poison the palace here. Yes, this palace is sure that Donglin Gongzi has no intention of persecuting this palace, but this palace can't figure it out anyway, why Donglin Gongzi is so close to this palace! ”

As he spoke, Chen Za's cold gaze looked at him.

Dong Lincang is still full of upright and soft, the whole person is elegant and appropriate, and the gentleness revealed by the whole body is undoubtedly more elegant and soft than the spring flowers.

Sihan stared at him deeply, but he really couldn't see through him.

This person's smile is all gathered in the pupils, not even like ordinary people on the surface, but deep into the bottom of the eyes, giving people an indescribable sense of elegance and elegance, as if it is extremely frank and sincere, can be relied on, but if you look and feel carefully, but feel that although this time is warm and dusty, but it is far away from people, far away, too far to see, let alone touch.

"It's a bit too much, and it seems that you have the intention to get close to the eldest princess." At this moment, he spoke slowly and softly, and said, his voice became more and more distant and warm, "I met the eldest princess in the forest of the hunting ground, and because of the contact, I felt that I got along with the eldest princess very well. Speaking of which, in such a long time, I have never met such an interesting person as the eldest princess, and I don't know that even if the regent has disappeared, as long as he does not appear, the eldest princess will also become a widow. In this way, I wonder if the eldest princess can look up and down and recruit the bottom as a colt? ”

Widows, colts?

These words came into his ears, and Sihan couldn't help but write them down from the corner of his eyes.

Although he knew that this Donglincang occasionally spoke amazingly, he didn't expect that he could even say these words at will.

"The son of Donglin is the son of the British family, and his identity is respected, and the palace does not dare to recruit the son of Donglin as my Donglin horse." She replied indifferently and gloomily.

Dong Lincang chuckled, "It's okay, as long as you are willing, you can do it, but I don't know if the eldest princess is willing." Moreover, if the eldest princess is worried about her identity, she will be able to get into the redundancy if she unloads her identity? ”

He smiled with his eyebrows and eyes, the breeze was elegant, and he didn't mean to be half a wave at all, but these words were in his ears, and in the tossing and turning, he was inexplicably ridiculous.

"Donglin Gongzi may have forgotten that there is a horse in the palace, that is, he is missing now, and he has also appeared one day. In this way, I will live up to the wishes of Donglin Gongzi. ”

The corners of Donglincang's eyes were slightly raised, and his voice was also picked a little, "In this way, in the heart of the eldest princess, she still can't let go of the regent of Tanglin after all." Even if there is an advantage anywhere, the eldest princess has no heart to compromise. Oh, it's okay like this, as long as the eldest princess has a positive outlook and cares about the world, this world can't be turned over. And in the next ah, you just have to wait to watch the play, just watch someone, how to go up and down, and then be subdued and submitted, heh, hehe. ”

He smiled so brightly that it was glaring.

Sihan really couldn't get used to it, and said in a low voice: "The words that go around the bush are not transparent and straightforward people. If the prince of Donglin has something to say, he will say it directly. ”

Dong Lincang restrained his smile slightly, and said slowly: "I know that the eldest princess wants to talk." ”

Sihan was choked by his words, and he said again: "But I really can't say much about it." ”

As soon as these words fell, he filled Sihan with wine again, "Eldest princess, please." ”

Full of wine and food, this meal is undoubtedly the first time Sihan has eaten so much since he came to Chu.

When Sihan said goodbye and left, he just got together, and his feet were slightly weak, and his body staggered.

Dong Lincang immediately got up, stretched out his hand to hold her steady, seeing that Sihan's cheeks were red and his eyes were slightly confused, he suddenly smiled lightly, "The eldest princess is still so cute." ”

Sihan forcibly calmed down, and after standing firm, he stretched out his hand to push him away, "Donglin Gongzi's mouth is not forgiving, this palace is already like this, you don't forget to ridicule." ”

As she spoke, without waiting for him to reply, her voice sank, and she continued: "Thank you for the hospitality of Donglin Gongzi today, it is late at night, and the palace will leave first." ”

Dong Lincang smiled softly, and didn't say more, only said: "It is also a blessing to be able to have the eldest princess's face to eat together." When the eldest princess returns, take it slow on the way and pay attention to your step. ”

Sihan nodded, then turned around and walked out of the hall.

As soon as he stepped out of the palace, Shan Zhongze immediately came up to help.

Dong Lincang kept sending her to the gate of the courtyard, and then she slowly stopped, Sihan didn't look back, and was supported by Shan Zhongze and went straight forward.

After returning to Surabaya, the alcohol was rising, and she immediately went to sleep peacefully.

This night, the mood was extremely peaceful and relieved, for some reason, Xu is wine was indeed strong, and seemed to know that Lan Yeyu was not dead, but he was in harmony and relieved, and he was quiet and peaceful.

After a sleepless night, Sihan slept peacefully.

Early the next morning, as soon as I got up, someone personally sent the invitation letter of the king of Chu over, but tonight, a birthday banquet will be held in the palace of the king of Chu, and the nobles of the palace will be invited to celebrate.

What should come is still coming after all, and the Hongmen banquet set up earlier by the King of Chu is about to begin.

The bottom of her heart was thick and inexplicable, Sihan sat on the soft couch, her thoughts were far away, and when she came back to her senses, the red invitation in her hand was kneaded by her at some point.

This time when she entered Chu, Lan Yeyu claimed to have prepared a congratulatory gift for her for the King of Chu, but Lan Yeyu suddenly disappeared, Sihan sent Shan Zhongze to check the matter of the congratulatory gift, and when Shan Zhongze replied, he really didn't know what congratulatory gift Lan Yeyu had prepared for the King of Chu.

Sihan sighed in his heart, and was slightly helpless for a while.

There have been a lot of trivial things in the past few days, but I have forgotten about the birthday ceremony of King Chu, but now I suddenly think about it, and I feel that Lan Yeyu has already dropped the chain.

In desperation, he was secretly thinking about the birthday ceremony, but suddenly there were footsteps outside the hall from far and near, and then stopped outside the temple gate not far away.

"Eldest princess, Donglin Gongzi sent someone to bring you a jar of wine."

It was only a moment before Shan Zhongze's resolute and respectful voice rose.

Sihan raised the corner of his eyes, and after a moment of silence, he slowly got up and looked forward, and when he opened the door of the hall, he saw that in front of the door, Shan Zhongze and a small servant stood respectfully, the little guy was dressed simply and plainly, and his face was ordinary, but he was extremely polite.

He moved to Sihan and stood upright, bowed respectfully, and when he straightened up, he said respectfully: "Eldest princess, this is the wine that my son-in-law gave you." ”

Sihan raised the corner of his eyes, did not speak, and after a moment of silence, he personally reached out to take the wine jar, and when he opened the cork at will, he lowered his face and smelled it, and a strong and mellow fragrance of osmanthus and wine filled his nose, which was really refreshing.

Actually, osmanthus is stuffed.

It's rare that the east of the cang, seeing that she didn't like the osmanthus brew last night, this morning she sent someone to send a jar over, this time, although it was kind, but it was really too kind, which made people wary and unaccustomed.

Sihan's expression was mixed, and after only a moment of silence, he handed the wine jar to Shan Zhongze casually. When Shan Zhongze hurriedly stretched out his hand to hold the wine jar, she turned her eyes and fell towards the little guy, picked the peiyu on her waist and handed it to the little guy, and when she saw the little guy being caught off guard, she said in a low voice: "Go back and tell your son-in-law, just say, this osmanthus brew, this palace has accepted it." It's just that this person in this palace doesn't like to owe favors to others, so that he can give this Peiyu to him, which can be regarded as a favor, and no one owes anyone anything. ”

The little guy really didn't expect Sihan to say something like this suddenly, for a while, he frowned, slightly embarrassed, and hesitated, but he didn't know whether to reach out and take Peiyu.

"The eldest princess has already spoken, and you still don't take it?" At this moment, Shan Zhongze urged resolutely beside him.

Only then did the little girl react, and hurriedly reached out to take Peiyu from Sihan's fingertips, and then bowed respectfully and left. When the little guy walked away, Shan Zhongze glanced at the wine jar in his hand, and his brows furrowed, "Eldest princess, Donglin Cang has nothing to do, it's really weird." ”

Sihan's expression was distant, noncommittal, but he only nodded slightly.

"Last time, you sent someone to spy on the east of the cang, what did you gain?" Sihan raised the corners of his eyes slightly, and asked in a low voice.

Shan Zhongze's eyes were slightly gloomy, and there were a few wisps of helplessness on his resolute face, "The people below have never found anything unusual about the east of the sky. And every time I return to the gift, it is the east Lincang in the courtyard to fold flowers and play, when the interest comes, there will be a few songs, and there is nothing unusual. ”

Is it?

Sihan's heart fluctuated, although he believed in Shan Zhongze's words, he didn't believe that Donglincang was really so honest.

Or perhaps, the person sent by Shan Zhongze has already found out, but he has not debunked it, but in his heart, he has already been guarded, so as long as that person has the intention to deceive those spies sent by Shan Zhongze, those spies will not find out that he is half different.

Such a result is undoubtedly expected, but in the bottom of my heart, I am still helpless.

The east is in the sky, undoubtedly bottomless, and he acts tactually. I just want this trip to Chu, that person's intention is not to her and Tanglin, but in others, I also hope that the Hongmen banquet set up by the King of Chu can end quickly, and she Yan Sihan can also return to Tanglin safely as soon as possible.

Thoughts flipped, and complex meanings spread layer by layer.

After a while, she came back to her senses and said in a low voice: "There is no need to send someone to stare at it." Tonight's birthday banquet of the king of Chu is undoubtedly dangerous, you and send people outside the palace and outside the city to ambush and respond, if there is a sudden situation, we need to leave the palace and go out of the city immediately. ”

Shan Zhongze's face also began to be solemn, and he immediately nodded towards Sihan.

Sihan didn't say much, just lowered his eyes and swept the wine jar in Shan Zhongze's arms, "Wrap this jar of osmanthus brewing, and the gift of the king of Chu's birthday will be replaced by this jar of osmanthus brewing." ”

As soon as these words fell, without waiting for Shan Zhongze's reaction, Sihan turned around and entered the hall slightly and simply.

The days are as calm as water, and there are no waves in leisure. In the palace, it was also quiet and quiet, and nothing happened, which was really calm and peaceful.

However, such a quiet appearance is undoubtedly like a sign before the storm, and the people of all countries are secretly prepared, and the number of guards carrying the nobles and tokens of various countries out of the palace has gradually increased.
