Chapter 44: Agreements in Chess

The winter nights are long and the days are short, but fortunately there are palaces on the way to the paddock. This made Yan Yue have to sigh, this emperor is really living a supreme life, and everything is well arranged. The palace had obviously already received the news, and even the resting room had already been lit with a stove, which made people feel warm after entering the house. And the meals are also arranged according to the palace, which is exquisite and exquisite.

After leaving the palace, Murong Yan was obviously much more relaxed. Many unimportant court affairs have been handed over to several ministers of the court, and they only need to send information about everything, but if there is an important urgent court business, someone will be ordered to send it to the emperor urgently. This time, Yan Yue felt like she was living the life of an ordinary couple.

Walk together, eat together, chat together after meals, rest together. It's simple, but it feels very down-to-earth. Yan Yue has long been accustomed to this era of no Internet and no TV, usually she is alone or reading books or playing with girls, but today there are only Yan Yue and Murong Yan. So Yan Yue remembered what her grandparents liked to do every day in the 21st century: playing chess and having five sons in a row.

Yan Yue first briefly introduced the rules of the game, and then made a demonstration. The rules of these five sons are simple, not to mention that Murong Yan is so smart, so the two quickly fought on the chessboard. Yan Yue's chess skills come from countless times of observing the chess games of her grandparents and countless practices, and Murong Yan is just the time when he doesn't understand it, so the first round ended with Yan Yue's big victory.

Yan Yue decided to strike while the iron was hot, and before the start of the second game, she demanded firmly: "Murong Yan, you will also play these five sons now, do you dare to add some color in this game, you will win or lose in one game, if I win, the emperor will promise me one thing?" Murong Yan was contemplating on that chess game, and he was a little surprised to hear Yan Yue say this. It is said that Yan Yue really wants something now, how can she still rely on this chess game to get a lottery, unless what she wants is a little excessive. Thinking of this, Murong Yan said slowly: "If Yue'er has any requirements, why use this chess game to decide." ”

"The concubine's request is not important, it's just that the emperor said this, does he dare not honor his promise by winning or losing the chess game. If the emperor really thinks like this, then forget it. Yan Yue played a little cautiously, and told Murong Yan that the color she wanted was not important; The second title was also changed, from calling each other's names to calling each other's emperors, from calling themselves "I" to "concubines", elevating each other, which is a typical use of the radical method.

Murong Yan couldn't help but laugh, the more Yan Yue was like this, the more important it was to see what she wanted. Immediately smiled and said: "I can agree to the queen's request, and I will win or lose the game." It's just that the queen asked me to agree to a request, and the queen should also agree to a request, so it's fair. ”

"That......... A word is a certainty, the emperor has a golden mouth, and a word is difficult to chase. Yan Yue almost blurted out.

"The queen was in such a hurry, and she didn't seem to care at all what I would ask for. It seems that the queen is confident. Murong Yan quipped amusedly.

Yan Yue smiled a little embarrassed this time, because Murong Yan just spoke to Yan Yue's heart. In the first game, Yan Yue won Murong Yan and basically did not have to make any effort. No matter how smart Murong Yan is, Yan Yue doesn't believe that he can win himself in the second game! Thinking about Yan Yue's five-in-a-row, it has gone through two lifetimes of experience accumulation.

"My request is simple, I want to spend some time outside before returning to the palace after this winter caracal is over. But it won't be too long, about a month at most. I don't know what the emperor wants? Yan Yue directly said her thoughts, from inside the palace to outside the palace. Although it is just a wall, there is a completely different state of mind inside and outside the wall. That wall seems to shut up not only the body, but also the heart. Leaving the palace this time, Yan Yue re-experienced the freedom and happiness of the days outside the palace in the past, and just wanted to enjoy this free time for a while. Thinking that she would return to the palace in ten days, Yanyue couldn't stand it, so she took the opportunity to play chess and made a request.

Just now, Murong Yan had already guessed that he was not far from ten, and at this time, he just hummed clearly after listening to it. In the palace before, Yan Yue's heart seemed to only think about success, of course, it could also be seen as caring about Murong Yan's performance. And as soon as she left the palace today, her heart became wild, as if Murong Yan was no longer important, and Bi Chenggong was even less important. This feeling of being suddenly ignored was a bit frustrating, so Murong Yan's eyes when he looked at Yan Yue again changed a little.

"If the emperor doesn't have any opinions, then let's start......" Yan Yue urged, a little worried that Murong Yan had changed his mind.

"Didn't I say what I asked? Doesn't Yue'er want to know what I want? Murong Yan looked surprised. Yan Yue only then remembered this, anyway, Yan Yue had already regarded it as a loss, and it didn't matter to Yan Yue what he asked, so he forgot about it just now. Hearing Murong Yan say this, Yan Yue immediately said, "Say it!" I'll say yes to anything. ”

Murong Yan smiled again, and while holding the black chess pieces one by one, he said with a smile: "My request is also very simple, if I win, then ask the queen to tell me a strategy for governing the country every day." ”

Yan Yue was immediately stunned, is this request simple? It's just too complicated! Telling a prescription a day is easy for Yan Yue, but a strategy for governing the country a day feels even more difficult than asking for Yan Yue's life. After being stunned for a while, Yan Yue asked thoughtlessly, "Didn't you have that success to teach you?" Why did it change to me? ”

Murong Yan frowned, only glared at Yan Yue but did not speak. You must know that if Bi Chenggong's identity as a man disguised as a woman was not revealed, Murong Yan could still leave Bi Chenggong to give lectures in the imperial study every day. was disturbed by Yan Yue's poison, and forced Bi Chenggong to appear as a woman and re-enter the court. With these four words "men and women are different", it is inconvenient for Murong Yan to stay and successfully lecture in the imperial study. Sometimes when there is a problem, it is mostly discussed in the palace of diligence.

"This, this requirement is a bit ......" Yan Yue still felt incredible.

"If the queen finds it difficult, then this game can be won or lost." Murong Yan was free and easy, put down the chess pieces in his hand, and clapped his hands to get up.

Murong Yan was like this, Yan Yue was in a hurry. Thinking in his heart, this Murong Yan couldn't win anyway, so why should he care about what he asked. Immediately said decisively: "Okay, that's it!" Here we go. ”

"No, wait a little longer." Murong Yan shouted to stop again, and Yan Yue couldn't help but be a little annoyed. I really had some doubts in my heart if this Murong Yan was afraid of losing, so he kept delaying time here.

"I am a gentleman, I don't know if the queen can do it. If the queen is also true to her word, then we will make a document and find witnesses. What about time? Let's start tonight. Murong Yan said seriously again, Yan Yue at this time was a little skeptical that Murong Yan's brain was frozen today. If it weren't for the level of his first game of chess, Yan Yue would have suspected that this person had ulterior motives.

However, Yan Yue was also refreshed, and Murong Yan called someone, quickly made the agreement under Murong Yan's dictation, and copied it again. Then he handed the two copies to Murong Yan and Yan Yue. Murong Yan took it in his hand and looked at it carefully, but Yan Yue only swept it slightly, and then hurriedly signed his name. It's just that after signing it, Yan Yue had a faint trace of uneasiness in her heart, and she always felt that Murong Yan seemed to be calculating something? can think that he can win anyway, no matter how much he calculates, there should be no problem, so Yan Yue will feel at ease when he thinks about it.

This time, the second game began solemnly. Even Murong Yan was much more serious, and his chess moves were getting slower and slower. may be the reason for thinking about it seriously, Yan Yue's several chess games have been broken by him. Yan Yue was a little anxious in her heart, but Murong Yan's fall was getting slower and slower, and some chess pieces Yan Yue had already calculated where he should put them, but he thought about it for a long time, every time he raised his hand and put it down, and every time he was about to fall, he raised his hand again, and this delay was delayed, and finally put it in the right position.

Yan Yue was annoyed, she went down like this, and she didn't know when it would go. And if Murong Yan had enough time to think about every step, then the possibility of winning by himself would not be great. In the end, the two could only end in a draw. Thinking about her future free life outside the palace, Yan Yue decided to work harder. Thinking of this, Yan Yue opened her mouth and yawned first, and then said: "Playing chess like this, I'm going to fall asleep, why don't you speed up?" ”

Murong Yan didn't raise his head, his eyes were still focused on the chess game, and he was even a few beats slower to answer the question: "Speed up and I suffer, after all, I have only learned these five sons, and the queen is obviously good at some ways." ”

Yan Yue couldn't help but pout, because what Yan Yue wanted was exactly this result. As long as he accelerates, he Murong Yan will definitely have something missing. And Yan Yue believed that no matter how fast she was, she would not make a mistake. Thinking of this, Yan Yue immediately said: "In this way, we let the cloves shout the number, it is my turn to hold the son, the cloves count from 1 to 2, and it is the emperor's turn to hold the son, how about the cloves count from 1 to 3?" ”

This time Murong Yan stopped, and it seemed that playing chess while talking had caused trouble to Murong Yan. He frowned and asked in confusion, "Yue'er, this is still a little unfair. Counting from 1 to 2 and counting from 1 to 3 is just one word, and Lilac's girl is your person, she has a faster mouth, but I don't have much time at all. ”

Yan Yue was dumbfounded for a while, but she didn't expect Murong Yan, as an emperor, to be so serious about this matter. Before Yan Yue could come up with any tricks, Murong Yan had already continued: "If you don't here, how about counting from 1 to 4?" ”

"Absolutely." Yan Yue replied with a smile. It's just a difference of numbers, and of course Yan Yue won't mind. If Lilac counted faster, then Murong Yan wouldn't have had any time to think at all. So Yan Yue said intentionally or unintentionally before starting again: "I'm sleepy, let's go to bed early." ”

Yan Yue believed that Lilac would be able to understand her hints, so Lilac's counting speed was indeed very fast. There was just one thing that was unexpected by Yan Yue, which seemed to shorten Murong Yan's time to think, and did not affect his judgment ability to play chess. In Lilac's faster and faster speech, he actually fell like the wind, fast and accurate.

Yan Yue suddenly doubted, wondering if Murong Yan was pretending to be just now, suspecting him...... With such suspicions, Yan Yue missed a move, and Murong Yan succeeded in one step, pressing step by step, and then in Lilac's fast speaking speed, Yan Yue became more and more panicked, and the more panicked she became, the more wrong she became, and ended in failure.

After Murong Yan put away the chess pieces with a smile and proudly announced his victory, Yan Yue knew more deeply where he had lost. One is that he underestimated his opponent, and the opponent was so cunning, leading Yan Yue to the ditch of defeat step by step. The second is that he overestimated himself, he Murong Yan wanted to make a document, to sign, and to count the time from tonight, obviously he was already determined to win, but Yan Yue was still careless in Jingzhou. The goal of freedom was not achieved, and since then, he has been trying his best to think of ways to govern the country every day. Now there is only one word that can describe Yan Yue's mood, and that is "regret!" ”

"Yue'er, with such a sad face, she must be thinking about how to govern the country. I went to bathe, and after a while I came to listen to the queen's teachings. Murong Yan stood up with a smile, only to be so angry that Yan Yue waved his fist vigorously at his back, still unable to understand his hatred.

Yan Yue is not sleepy, and she can't be sleepy, because there are still important tasks to be done!

And Lilac, who has been waiting on the side, can't hide a smile on her face, Lilac doesn't care about the master's good way to govern the country, Lilac only knows that from now on, the emperor will be with his master every night. In this way, will the master soon have a little prince! Lilac is looking forward to it!
