Chapter 008: Half of Your Credit

They all thought that Cheng Xi was a straw bale princess who didn't learn and didn't know how to do it, but they didn't expect her to be a blockbuster in the Huachao chess game, and she directly slapped everyone present in the face.

Seeing Jiang Yuxin's pale face, Cheng Xi adhered to the good character of friendship first and competition second, stepped forward and patted her arm gently to show comfort, and then walked towards Emperor Xiaowu and the Empress Dowager in the midst of everyone's discussions.

"Grandmother, father, are you still satisfied with your son's homework?" Cheng Xi looked at them playfully and asked for praise affectionately.

Emperor Xiaowu was quite surprised to learn that she had won the game, and now seeing her radiant again, he tacitly exchanged an expression with the Queen Mother, and laughed heartily: "I am very satisfied, I didn't expect my Princess Mingruo to be so unexpected." ”

"But no, Princess Mingruo won the chess saint today, Your Majesty, you are not allowed to talk about her homework in the future."

The queen mother took Cheng Xi's hand kindly and watched Emperor Xiaowu help her.

Cheng Xi said intimately: "Imperial grandmother, rest assured, my father's homework is for my good, I will study seriously in the future, and I will not disappoint your hopes, today's Huachao chess game is a proof of my determination." ”

Cheng Xi's words were ingenious, the Empress Dowager and Emperor Xiaowu were not offended, and the two of them were praising her for being sensible with a smile, and Prime Minister Jiang Cheng saluted them and proposed that he would give up the title of chess saint and talent to himself.

Before Emperor Xiaowu could speak, she grabbed the white and said: "Prime Minister Jiang Cheng's words are wrong, the chess saint and talented woman in this year's Hua Dynasty chess game is Miss Jiang, what does it mean that she won the title by virtue of her strength and gave it to this princess?" ”

Prime Minister Jiang Cheng said respectfully: "If the princess wins the daughter of the minister in front of everyone, the talented woman of chess is none other than the princess." ”

Cheng Xi smiled, she participated in the Hua Dynasty chess game, not to compete for the title of chess saint and talented woman.

"This princess originally withdrew from the chess game, today she was ordered to learn from Miss Jiang, and won a game by luck, Miss Jiang is a famous talented woman in the capital, she deserves to enjoy this title, if it is given to this princess, not only will she be deserved, but she will also attract the criticism of others, besides, this princess does not want to give things to her."

Cheng Xi said that what he said was vibrating, and when Prime Minister Jiang heard it, he didn't dare to say more, but was worried that if it spread, it would make people think that the Jiang family looked down on Princess Mingruo.

Now that the dust has settled on the chess saint and talented woman, it will be the part of Emperor Xiaowu's banquet to celebrate later, Cheng Xi is not good at dealing with the scene of flattery, so he quickly found an excuse to slip away, and as soon as he came out of the Guangde Palace, he was stopped by Cheng Ying who was waiting on the side.

She put her arm on Cheng Xi's shoulder and asked proudly, "Let you be in the limelight in front of Shen Rang, isn't my chess book very good?" ”

"It's really good." Cheng Xi saw her appearance of asking for merit and reward, showed a big smile, and nodded in agreement, "It helped me a lot, I don't know where Sister Ying got it?" ”

"It's a secret."

Cheng Ying held her head high, like an arrogant peacock, Cheng Xi teased her for a while, and when she saw that she really didn't plan to tell herself, she stopped asking, and the two talked and laughed for a while, and then saw Du Yunyan walking out of the side hall.

Du Yunyan saw Cheng Xi and Cheng Ying standing outside the hall, and saluted them without losing her manners.

"Miss Du's chess skills are exquisite, and today is an eye-opener for Princess Ben." Cheng Xi stopped her who was about to leave, "I hope to have the opportunity to discuss poetry and poetry with Miss Du in the future." ”

Cheng Xi said sincerely, the name of Du Yunyan, I have heard of it, she is a talented woman in the capital who is as famous as the Jiang family's second sister, she likes to be bold and unrestrained, often meets friends with poetry, and there are not a few people who admire her talent, I thought she was good at poetry, but I didn't expect that she could also kill Jiang Yuxin in the Hua Dynasty chess game.

Du Yunyan obviously didn't expect Cheng Xi to talk to her, and said with a frank smile: "The defeated person is not worth mentioning, but the princess is strategizing in the chess game, attacking and killing fiercely, forcing Miss Jiang to be in a hurry, so that she made a mistake in the princess's way, which made the people admire, and if she has the opportunity in the future, she will definitely have a game with the princess." ”

Cheng Xi listened to Du Yunyan easily point out the key to her winning chess, and she didn't shy away from it, nor did she avoid her, such a refreshing personality is completely different from ordinary official children, she can't help but feel good and fall in love.

The two solemnly agreed, Cheng Xi watched Du Yunyan leave, turned her head, and looked at Cheng Ying's inquiring gaze, she shook her head in disbelief, and said something in her mouth: "Something is wrong, you are my cousin, right?" The princess Mingruo, who likes to climb trees since she was a child, cries her nose if she doesn't give candied fruit, and doze off as soon as her uncle lets you read, right? ”

"Yes, yes, of course." Cheng Xi continued with her words, "I still like to play tricks on people, I always have to fight with several other royal brothers, and when I was a child, you also took me to Princess Rui's Buddhist hall and secretly ate the fruit that was just put on the table." ”

Cheng Xi cherished her bad behavior, which dispelled Cheng Ying's suspicions, and she explained to Cheng Ying that she now loves learning and intends to make friends with the second generation of officials, just because she doesn't want to lose at the starting line, and she will add another layer of security to the future.

But Cheng Ying obviously misunderstood what she meant, patted her chest and seriously promised: "Sister Mingruo rest assured, my cousin will always support you, just Jiang Jingxian, I can't snatch your Shen Rang, today's performance in the Huachao chess game, I believe that Shen Rang has been impressed, and when the banquet is over, ask him to go to your room, and then cooperate with the incense I send you, according to my ideas, you can definitely take him!" ”

Cheng Xi tugged at the corners of her mouth, showing an embarrassed but polite smile, she wanted to cover Cheng Ying's mouth and tell her - no! You don't want to!

In order not to be led astray by Cheng Ying's dirty and dirty thoughts, she hurriedly drove Cheng Ying back to the banquet, and she took the red leaves back to Fengyang Pavilion.

Shen Rang leaned his back against the wall, his arms around his chest, and when he saw Cheng Xi coming over, he immediately stretched out his hand to block her way, and asked, "What do you want to do before you are willing to give up?!" ”

Cheng Xi's mind was full of question marks, she couldn't figure out the situation in front of her, she looked at Shen Rang inexplicably, she didn't understand what she meant, people are walking on the road, and the pot comes from the sky.

Shen Rang saw that Cheng Xi was dazed and ignorant, and his heart was even more angry, and he said fiercely: "Since you have withdrawn from the competition, why do you want to play against Miss Jiang, what means did you use to win her and make the Jiang family lose face in front of the courtiers?!" ”

Cheng Xi can be regarded as understanding now, Shen Rang is fighting for the Jiang family, she chuckled helplessly: "The husband is not guilty, he is guilty, Miss Jiang's skills are inferior to others and lost to me, why am I still wrong?" The emperor and the queen mother are watching the battle on the stage, if someone uses means, it is a big crime to bully the king. ”

"Clever words can fool me." Shen Rang clenched his fists and vented all the dissatisfaction in his heart, "Who doesn't know how majestic Princess Mingruo is, Jingxian and I can be forcibly separated by you on the way to get married, what else can't you do!" ”

Yes, she used her power to break up him and Jiang Jingxian on the way to Shen Rang's wedding, for Shen Rang and Jiang Jingxian, this enmity is not the same, no matter how sincere she is, she can't reverse his impression of being full of malice towards herself.

"Ding! The host has been attacked with extremely strong hatred, and his health continues to decrease, so please replenish his HP in time! ”

After listening to the blood loss prompt from the system, Cheng Xi suddenly felt tired, her entanglement with Shen Rang was still messy, and she didn't care about it anymore, sighed, and took a detour directly.

But Shen Rang caught up reluctantly: "You don't hesitate to do such a thing in order to get me, it's really the most poisonous woman's heart!" ”

Cheng Xi almost squirted out, Shen Rang's sentence was too much, and she was laughed at angrily.

Pressing his dizzy head, Cheng Xi said disdainfully: "Master Shen, your self-feeling is too good, this princess is doing a good job, her identity is more noble than Jiang Jingxian, her chess skills are beautiful and suppresses Jiang Yuxin, what is the second sister of the Jiang family, but she is a defeated general under this princess, and this princess disdains to fight, then she will lose her identity, in other words, they are not worthy!" ”

Seeing that Shen Rang was enraged, he was about to pounce on her and tear her up, Hongye immediately protected him, Cheng Xi was not afraid, and continued to provoke: "Shen Xiaohou is angry, I advise you to save your energy, you are the cousin of this princess, if you are angry to death, my aunt will be heartbroken." ”

Seeing that Shen Rang's face was about to turn the color of pig liver, Cheng Xi realized that her words seemed to be a little too much, she hurriedly said sorry, and before Shen Rang could react, she pulled the red leaves and ran away quickly.

It wasn't until she was sitting in the gazebo of the Imperial Garden that she asked Momiji sullenly, "What I said just now, is it a little too heavy?" ”

"Princess, don't think too much." Hongye said with relief, "Young Marquis Shen is your future concubine, but not only does he not believe you, but he also helps outsiders to accuse you, no matter who you call to listen, he will be angry." ”

Although Cheng Xi was a little angry, she didn't want to be a villain, she supported her head with her hands, and her thoughts were chaotic, like a ball of yarn that was not well organized.

It must be anemia!

She was thinking about a way to rub the oil Ji Chengjin, when she heard Hongye beside her and said strangely: "Huh? Why is Ji Gongzi here? ”

As soon as Cheng Xi heard the spirit, she quickly stretched out her head and looked around, and finally saw Ji Chengjin's figure on the trestle, she was ecstatic in her heart, walked to Ji Chengjin's side and asked: "Ji Gongzi is leisurely and elegant, how about looking at the scenery here?" ”

Ji Chengjin retracted his gaze that fell on the pond, glanced at Cheng Xi and was about to leave.

At the moment when the two of them staggered, Cheng Xi grabbed Ji Chengjin and said happily: "Great news!" I've won the Flower Dynasty chess game! Thank you Ji Gongzi for teaching me well and cultivating a talented student like me, are you surprised? Not surprised? ”

Ji Chengjin looked at Cheng Xi's hand that grabbed his wrist and was silent.

Seeing that Ji Cheng was silent, Cheng Xi shook his arm slightly, and said happily: "My achievements today are half of the credit of Ji Gongzi, don't you have what you want to say?" It's not an acceptance speech, but it's a message, right? ”

"Loosen." Ji Chengjin didn't look at Cheng Xi, only moved his wrist, and opened his mouth without ups and downs.

"Huh?" Cheng Xi was surprised, "Master Ji, aren't you stammering?" Did you try what I said that night......

Ji Chengjin took a deep breath, broke free from Cheng Xi's pull and left, ignoring her and shouting behind her: "Master Ji, I haven't finished talking yet!" ”
