Recently, the situation of the crown prince Beiliuye is not optimistic, the queen was grounded in the palace, Wang Zhi borrowed this matter to hype up in the ears of the Northern Yan Emperor, and the Northern Yan Emperor was dissatisfied with the Mu family for a while, and suppressed it vigorously, and even disliked the prince's son.

Beiliuye was divided between Wang Zhi and Beiliuhai in his hands, although the rest of the princes were not afraid, but they have been making small moves, everyone is looking forward to his downfall, and it is precisely because of this that he is in a hurry to invite Jiang Taishi again, but it still fails and ends.

Beiliuye's gaze swept over Chu Luoyi on the side, a flash of surprise flashed in his eyes, and he didn't say much, he threw up his sleeves and left.

Xiao Tong led the way in front and led the two into the hut, Jiang Taishi sat cross-legged by the chessboard, and got up politely to say goodbye: "See His Royal Highness the Nine." ”

"Master Jiang is very polite."

The two sat down one after another, and the little boy brought a pot of hot tea, smelling the faint fragrance of tea, thinking that it was authentic Pu'er.

Jiang Taishi first poured a cup for Beiliuyun, which was seven points full, and then poured a cup for himself and drank it lightly.

Beiliuyun handed the tea cup in his hand to Chu Luoyi who was standing aside, Chu Luoyi was slightly stunned, but took it silently.

There was a warm heat in the palm of his hand, and Taishi Jiang on the side only cared about drinking tea, as if he hadn't seen the scene in front of him.

Chu Luoyi kept warming his hands, but he didn't drink it, and looked at Jiang Taishi, an old man over sixty years old, with a gray beard about a foot long, black and white interlaced hair, which looked a little stiff, some shallow marks on his face, a coarse cloth coat, an ordinary old man.

Sensing his scrutiny, Taishi Jiang raised his eyes and saw that Chu Luoyi's heart was slightly shocked, but his cloudy eyes were full of sharpness, a kind of sharpness that was hidden in the world, but he had insight into the world.

Taishi Jiang retracted his gaze and said to Beiliuyun: "I don't know what His Royal Highness Nine came to do this time?" ”

"This palace is naturally here to invite Taishi Jiang to come out of the mountain, presumably everyone who covets the world wants to get Taishi Jiang's help." Beiliuyun smiled lightly and spoke.

Taishi Jiang said with a smile: "His Royal Highness the Ninth is really a fallacy, although the old man is a prince, he has long stopped asking about the court, how can he help him?" However, if His Royal Highness the Ninth can win a game of chess, the old man is willing to solve a puzzle or two for His Royal Highness the Nine. ”

Bei Liuyun's gaze fell on expectation: "That's fine." ”

Taishi Jiang stretched out his hand and said, "Your Highness the Nine, please." ”

Beiliuyun twisted a blue chess piece with two fingers and fell at will, and Jiang Taishi also fell quickly.

Chu Luoyi stood quietly aside, holding a tea cup, watching the two confront.

Jiang Taishi has superb chess skills, has strategies everywhere, and thinks long-term at every step.

Chu Luoyi set his eyes on the blue chess pieces held by Bei Liuyun, and a touch of incomprehension flashed in his eyes, it stands to reason that Bei Liuyun has not been involved in chess for a long time, and chess art is focused on comprehension, there is no different experience, and it is difficult to achieve success.

Now, Bei Liuyun's chess move made her unable to understand, and there seemed to be no rules to find, not only Chu Luoyi was a little puzzled, but even the speed of Jiang Taishi's fall slowed down more and more, as if she was studying the deep meaning of Bei Liuyun's every step.

There are not many chess pieces on the chessboard, but an hour has passed, and even Jiang Taishi did not foresee this situation.

Jiang Taishi stroked his gray beard in one hand and the white chess pieces in the other, but he slowly did not fall.

Beiliuyun turned his head to look at Chu Luoyi, who was focused on the chessboard, and pressed her against the collapse: "Don't look at it, it's weird." ”

Chu Luoyi hesitated for a moment and nodded slightly, while Beiliuyun continued to play against Jiang Taishi, who hesitated for a long time, and finally dropped the chess pieces.

Now looking at the overall situation, Beiliuyun has lost half of the country, but not only did he not try to rescue him, but even jumped into another trap of Jiang Taishi, which made Jiang Taishi a little undecided for a while, whether he had other plans or was confident.

Time passed little by little, Chu Luoyi looked at the two red carp in the landscape bonsai, a little bored, Beiliuyun turned his head to look at her and said, "But you feel bored?" ”

Chu Luoyi jumped over him and glanced at the chessboard, and said with some surprise: "Half of the country has been lost, I'm afraid it's almost over." ”

Beiliuyun chuckled: "If you lose it, you can take it back." ”

Chu Luoyi's heart moved slightly, and he continued to look at the two red carp, but he affirmed his guess in his heart.

Taishi Jiang frowned and carefully examined it, and after making sure that there were no omissions, he finally made another move.

Beiliuyun is still falling very fast, and Taishi Jiang no longer hesitates, as if he expected Beiliuyun to be just a trick and a dying struggle.

After another cup of tea, a smile finally appeared on Taishi Jiang's face: "Your Highness the Nine, it seems that you are about to lose." ”

Bei Liuyun threw the chess pieces back into the basket unconcernedly, and said with a smile: "Not necessarily." ”

"Oh? Could it be that His Royal Highness the Ninth has any hidden hands? Taishi Jiang faintly disliked it in his heart, thinking that Beiliuyun was not good at chess, but he was playing tricks on him.

Beiliuyun's glass-colored pupils refracted a touch of weirdness, a cold light flashed, the golden dragon dagger flew out in the man's hand, a white finger instantly fell on the expectation, and the splashed blood instantly collapsed into the white chess piece.

Jiang Taishi's face changed, his pupils constricted, and when he looked at it again, the old big hand that was holding the son had a little finger cut off by him.

"You..!" Taishi Jiang looked at Beiliuyun in front of him in disbelief, and fine beads of sweat oozed from his forehead, as if he was enduring severe pain.

Bei Liuyun took out the satin in the chess basket, wiped the dagger in his hand and said quietly: "This palace thinks that if Taishi Jiang's two hands are gone, he will definitely not be able to win this game of chess." ”

Taishi Jiang looked at Beiliuyun with a pale face, and said after a while: "You have planned like this from the beginning, so this game of chess is just your nonsense. ”

Chu Luoyi raised his eyebrows, noncommittal, according to Beiliuyun's chess skills, it is impossible to beat Jiang Taishi no matter what, even if the mechanism is exhausted, it is impossible to escape Jiang Taishi's wisdom like a torch, so he simply let it go, but it made Jiang Taishi unable to see his intentions.

"Although it was nonsense, the final result was that I won, didn't I?" Beiliuyun said with a smile.

Jiang Taishi's gaze fell on the man opposite, and then he looked at it carefully, his thin lips were lightly hooked, with a hint of coldness, his phoenix eyes were narrow and long, and there was a lot of light flowing in his glass-colored eyes, which were as bright as a galaxy, and on his extremely gorgeous face, there was only one pair of eyes, the color of his eyes was extremely light, almost transparent, and he was the most indifferent and ruthless, hiding blood and violence.

"His Royal Highness the Ninth is not afraid of angering the old man, the old man is a saint, and his success falls short!" Jiang Taishi said coldly.

Bei Liuyun smiled indifferently: "If the Taishi wants to show his father, he must also have a life." ”

Taishi Jiang's face changed suddenly, but he continued: "Could it be that His Royal Highness the Ninth is not afraid that the old man will pretend to surrender to the prince, but secretly submit to the prince next to him, you will lose more than you gain." ”

Seeing this, Chu Luoyi spoke: "Since Taishi Jiang has decided to surrender, why is he doing this war of tongues? ”

Jiang Taishi's gaze finally fell on the woman, different from the previous sweep, this time it was a serious look, after all, few ordinary women have seen such a bloody scene, but they have never moved like a mountain.

The woman's skin is better than snow, her eyes are a black pool, the waves are not shocked, but the silence is hidden in the state of seduction, and people can't help but dream, that charm, should be a rare stunner in the world.

I heard the woman's hoarse voice sound again: "Taishi Jiang has been waiting for so long, isn't he waiting for a ruthless person, but he is good at scheming." ”

Taishi Jiang narrowed his eyes slightly, as if he didn't believe that the young woman in front of him could see that he had always come with his intentions.

"The prosperous world needs the lord of forgiveness and benevolence, but the troubled times need to kill the ruthless king, now the smoke is everywhere, the troubled times are coming, if you want the world to be unified, if you are soft-hearted, how to dominate the world? In troubled times, if you want to worry about the world, the only way to do it is to kill to become benevolent. Chu Luoyi's hoarse voice slowly flowed out, and there was a distant ancient rhyme.

A touch of shock flashed in Taishi Jiang's eyes, as if he was surprised by Chu Luoyi's insight, in this world, he had never seen a woman who had the strategy to look at the world, looking at the man and woman in front of him, he couldn't be half dissatisfied.

"The old man is willing to serve His Highness the Nine." Taishi Jiang got up, and his old body knelt firmly on the ground.

With a wry smile, he has waited for so long, and what he is waiting for is such a person, in troubled times, it is difficult for the benevolent lord to stand in the world, only violent and ruthless people can compete for the heroes and dominate the world.

Only in this way can the people recuperate and recuperate after the beacon fire, otherwise the conquest will not stop, and no one will be in charge of the mountains and rivers, and in the end it will only be a war that will continue, and it will be difficult to stop.

"Jiang Taishi, please get up" Beiliuyun helped Jiang Taishi up.

Jiang Taishi said: "The prince is more than ruthless, but unfortunately his resourcefulness is insufficient, His Royal Highness is decisive in killing, but he attaches too much importance to love and righteousness, the eighth prince is indifferent and gentle, but he does not admire power, the old man has retired for many years, but he has looked at the world, and he has waited for so long, and finally waited for you, but he didn't want to pay a painful price for it." ”

Chu Luoyi called the little boy outside the door in to help Taishi Jiang bandage his wounds, and the little boy looked at the little finger that was cut off by Qi Qi, and glanced at the two of them with some resentment.

Beiliuyun said with a smile: "Taishi Jiang broke one finger and determined the world, wouldn't it be a designated country?" Is there a better deal in this world? ”

Taishi Jiang was stunned when he heard this, and then he laughed: "What His Royal Highness Nine said is good! ”

Chu Luoyi squatted on the ground, holding a bamboo branch, teasing the two red carp, but his mind was turning, Zhou Wang was timid and cautious, he would not dare to betray Wang Zhi when Wang Zhi was in the middle of the day, if he wanted to completely control the forces in the palace, he must get rid of Zhou Wang.

At the time of his last meritorious service, Zhou Wang listened to her advice and supported Huang Zhong, whom Nightingale was loyal to, as his false opponent, so as to create a false impression of a balance of power for Wang Zhi, which made his current position in the palace always restless.

At present, Jiang Taishi is obedient, and Beiliuyun has also secretly cultivated a lot of forces, the prince's power has been greatly damaged, Wang Zhi's power is at its peak, and the dragon is fighting against the tiger, which is bound to rise rapidly at this time, and the power in the palace must be controlled by her.
