08 Past

Ding Guoguo plays chess differently from others, she is neither in a hurry to eat the opponent's chess pieces, nor does she have any rules to follow. She always does what she wants, even if half of her chess pieces are dead, she is not in a hurry at all. Her grandfather had said before that playing chess with her would make her half angry. was always dizzy by her, and then lost without paying attention, losing inexplicably, which made people angry.

"I'm sorry, the folk girl won again, hehe." After taking away all the black pieces on the chessboard, Ding Guoguo smiled.

"Ugh." Leaving the remaining chess pieces in his hand, the Seven Princes leaned on the back of the chair and sighed. "I really don't have any affection, and I don't have half of the food left."

"Again?" Ding Guoguo asked with a grin as he sorted the chess pieces.

The Seven Princes waved their hands and picked up the tea bowl to drink tea.

"Okay."

"It's the Thousand Autumn Festival in a few days, what kind of gift do you say to give to your father is novel and chic?" After being silent for a long time, the Seventh Prince suddenly asked.

Qianqiu Festival, the birthday of the emperor of the Tianxiang Dynasty. On this day, the whole world celebrates and amnesties the world.

Ding Guoguo raised his eyes and glanced at him, and when he saw him chatting, he said, "According to the emperor's preference, isn't it good." ”

"What are you going to give?"

"Huh?" Ding Guoguo was stunned, the Qianqiu Festival seemed to only invite the emperor's relatives and relatives, civil and military officials above the fourth grade, she was clothed, how could she be qualified to participate.

"It's better for you to prepare in advance, I think my father will invite you to the Qianqiu banquet." The Seventh Prince chuckled.

Ding Guoguo is worried now, she has never given a gift to the emperor. The whole world belongs to the emperor, will the emperor still rarity any gold and silver treasures?

Send calligraphy and paintings? She doesn't know anything about it!

Singing and dancing? She's got six out of seven!

Sending embroidered pillows? She only knows how to prick people with needles!

So what else can she give?

When I went to check the emperor's pulse the next day, sure enough, the emperor said that she should follow the Seven Princes to the Qianqiu Banquet to see what a lively scene the Qianqiu Festival of the Tianxiang Dynasty was.

The emperor personally invited her, and she could not refuse.

Seeing that the Qianqiu Festival was getting closer and closer, she didn't have a clue what to give to the emperor, and she couldn't help but be a little impatient.

"Have you decided to give your father a gift?"

As soon as he finished dinner that day, he was left to play by the Seven Princes. At the end of the first game, when there was a gap for tea, the Seven Princes asked her.

"Nope." Ding Guoguo shook his head.

"I've got one for you."

"Then thank you, the Seventh Prince." Ding Guoguo smiled slightly, this is good, it saves her from worrying.

The Seventh Prince just glanced at her and didn't speak again.

The room was quiet, no one spoke anymore, only the soft snapping sound of chess pieces falling.

"Do you want to know why Concubine Yan died?"

At the end of another game, the Seven Princes seemed to be casually picking up the chess piece Ding Guoguo.

"I don't want to know." She didn't lift her head.

"But I want to say."

Hearing this, Ding Guoguo paused and raised his eyes to look at the Seventh Prince. saw that there was no smile on his face, and his eyes were staring at her deeply. Her heart skipped a beat for no reason, and she hurriedly turned her face away.

"I heard that before Concubine Yan entered the palace, there was a diner in the house. The diner said he had come to look for his wife, and had been looking for him for half a year. After a long time, Concubine Yan fell in love with the diner. Ignoring his family's opposition, he was determined to elope with the diner to the Windy Country. Unexpectedly, the night before, the diner suddenly disappeared, leaving only a letter to Concubine Yan. The letter said that if she could do what he had told him, he would fulfill his promise. ”

Speaking of this, the Seventh Prince suddenly paused and looked at Ding Guoguo, whose face had changed, "It is said that the diner likes to wear a red dress, and his wife's medical skills are unparalleled in the world. Doctor Ding, who do you think the diner will be? ”

When Ding Guoguo heard him say this, he couldn't support it anymore and sat down on the ground. The chessboard in his hand couldn't hold it, and it fell to the ground, and the chess pieces rolled to the ground.

"Doctor Ding, what's wrong with you?" The Seventh Prince left his seat, squatted down, reached out and picked her chin, and laughed when he saw that she was not frightened.

"Do you want to hear a story?" Ding Guoguo gritted his teeth hard before forcing himself to speak. His eyes didn't dodge or dodge, meeting his unsmiling eyes.

He knew everything, but he didn't kill her, he didn't take her to prison. It seems that there is still room for reversal, and in order to survive, she can only go out and gamble.

If you lose the bet, it's a big deal! If you don't gamble, it's certain death!

"It's better if your story is good enough, otherwise..." As if shocked by her courage, the Seventh Prince was stunned at first, and then sneered.

"On a full moon night more than three years ago, I woke up seriously injured and saw corpses all over the ground。。。。。。

She thought that she would never tell anyone about it in her life, but now that she said it, she was calm in her heart as if she was telling someone else's story.

That night three and a half years ago, after being knocked unconscious by the man in red, she woke up again, already lying on the bed in her room.

I thought it was a dream, but when I woke up again, it was still the same scene, and the pain in my chest and neck reminded her that she was not dreaming.

"Cry what cry! People are dead, what's the use of crying! ”

When she woke up and remembered her situation, she was sad for a while and cried. And the man in red, who had been leaning on the side of the bed, suddenly shouted angrily.

"Cry again, believe it or not, I'll kill you!" Instantly, her neck was grabbed by the man, who glared at her angrily and warned.

"Let it go!" Breathless pain, she grabbed his arm hard, struggling.

"Humph!" The man snorted coldly and shook her off. The force was so great that she slammed into the bed at once. She burst into tears in pain, but she didn't dare to cry again.

"You're poisoned?" Although she was silent on the surface, she could see that the person leaning on the head of the bed had no focus, his breathing was disordered, and his eyebrows were heavy with black gas.

The man was stunned, his face even more gloomy, but he ignored her.

"I can cure the poison in you."

"How dare you fool me!" Instead of becoming happy because of her words, the man grabbed her neck even more angrily, and with a slight force, only when he heard her gasping and coughing, did he let go of the threat, "Your father Zishu will not solve the poison of forgetting worries, you little girl who has not dried up will solve it?" Trick me again, kill you! ”

"I didn't fool you, I mean it!" She touched her neck, which was still there, and as she inhaled hard, she said, "It doesn't do me any good to lie to you, why should I lie to you." ”

"Why?" The man lowered his head, met her eyes after a moment's thought, and asked word by word, "I killed your whole family's enemies, and you didn't kill me to avenge, but you wanted to detoxify me?!" ”

"Everyone deserves a chance!"

"Hahaha... Lunatic! Hearing her words, the man burst out laughing, as if she had said something amusement.

It was only after he was out of breath that the man stopped laughing, and then said word by word, "Okay, I believe you!" ”
