The face of the Great Zhou Emperor was as cold as ice. Just by looking at his face, it was impossible to guess what he was thinking.

He just stared at Cheng Guang calmly for a long time, until Cheng Guang's scalp was numb, and then he slowly moved his eyes away and fell on the stone table.

"What are you playing?"

Cheng Guang secretly groaned when he heard the question of the Great Zhou Emperor. He just wanted to hide now. The oppression given to him by the Great Zhou Emperor was stronger than that of Empress Dowager Li.

But the Great Zhou Emperor obviously did not mean to let him go, but pulled him to talk.

Cheng Guang did not know the Great Zhou Emperor, and Qingluan had not prepared any information about the Great Zhou Emperor for him before.

As a result, Cheng Guang now had no idea what attitude and language he should use to talk to the Great Zhou Emperor.

If the contrast with the previous performance of the prince is too great, it is not a question of whether to expose or not, but to think about what kind of death may be more painful and where to bury it for better feng shui.

Cheng Guang thought for a while, and at the same time, he secretly glanced at Wu Ling beside him, hoping that this girl could help him answer.

However, this girl did not look at the Emperor of Great Zhou, let alone talk to him.

Originally, she still looked like a pitiful little white rabbit, but in front of the Emperor of Great Zhou, she was a little too tough.

She didn't even want to look at the Emperor of Great Zhou with her face, but turned to the side silently, looking down at the soles of her feet, as if there was something particularly beautiful on the soles of her feet.

Cheng Guang had no choice but to answer with a stiff upper lip.

"Uncle, this is Gobang."

"Oh? Gobang?"

The Great Zhou Emperor exclaimed, "The name is quite appropriate for the way you just played. You can win by connecting five pieces in a line. Although the way to play is different from Go, it is also quite interesting."

After the Great Zhou Emperor finished speaking, he immediately glanced at Cheng Guang, "I have never seen this way of playing before. Did you invent it?"

Cheng Guang nodded, "I just made it up."

What Cheng Guang didn't expect was that the Great Zhou Emperor, who had not smiled just now, suddenly smiled after receiving Cheng Guang's reply.

"It's quite smart."

"I saw that you and my princess were having a lot of fun. Come and play a game of Gobang with me. If you win, I will reward you. If you lose, you will bear the consequences yourself."

After that, the Great Zhou Emperor sat leisurely in Cheng Guang's original position.

The sudden change in the situation not only made Cheng Guang unable to react, but even Wu Ling looked like she had seen a ghost. She couldn't help but turn her head and look at the Great Zhou Emperor a few more times.

She also didn't expect that the Great Zhou Emperor would sit down and invite the prince to play Gobang.

Cheng Guang didn't know why, but when he saw the Great Zhou Emperor's moody state, his sense of uneasiness suddenly became stronger, and the idea of ​​escaping directly became stronger and stronger.

But as soon as this idea arose, it was immediately suppressed by Cheng Guang.

Not to mention that it might not be exposed now, leaving rashly would be to seek death.

Even if it was exposed, where could he escape to?

Cheng Guang took a deep breath, forced himself to calm down, and sat down opposite the Great Zhou Emperor.

After cleaning the chessboard, he asked, "Uncle, who will play first?"

"You go first, I won't bully you."

Cheng Guang nodded, said no more, and directly put the black piece in the Tianyuan position.

The Great Zhou Emperor immediately made his move. He had watched Cheng Guang and Wu Ling play chess before, and he knew the rules of Gobang by heart.

He made careful moves, moved his pieces very quickly, and was very aggressive.

At the same time, he set a lot of traps for Cheng Guang.

Gobang is not difficult, but it is not difficult either. However, it is rare to be able to play this game to such an extent in such a short time.

Wu Ling is also very powerful, but compared with the mature and experienced Great Zhou Emperor at this time, he is not that far behind.

Cheng Guang was thinking about the chess game while playing.

He dared not lose a piece.

The Great Zhou Emperor just said that there would be a reward for winning, and the consequences of losing would be borne by oneself.

Cheng Guang did not care about the reward, but was very concerned about the meaningful and majestic eyes of the Great Zhou Emperor when he said "the consequences of losing would be borne by oneself".

Did the Great Zhou Emperor discover his identity?

When Cheng Guang was playing chess, he suddenly thought of this, and his hand holding the chess piece trembled subconsciously.

After the Great Zhou Emperor finished placing the chess piece, he noticed that Cheng Guang could not control his slightly trembling palm, and said leisurely.

"Play chess seriously, why are you thinking about it?"

The words of the Great Zhou Emperor not only did not dispel Cheng Guang's worries, but proved that he was acquiescing.

Cheng Guang's forehead secreted a lot of sweat. He had understood something, but he still had to be very alert and force himself to put all his thoughts on the chessboard.

It's useless to think so much now.

Even if the Great Zhou Emperor found out that he was a fake prince at this time, as long as he didn't expose himself directly or slap himself to death, there would still be room for things.

Let's win this game first.

Cheng Guang didn't think about it anymore and concentrated on it.

Pa Pa Pa...

In the slightly quiet pavilion, there was no other sound except the slight sound of the wind blowing and the sound of stones falling on the chessboard.

As more and more chess pieces appeared on the board, the battle became more and more intense. Both Cheng Guang and the Emperor of the Great Zhou seemed to be concentrating and immersed in the battle.

While Cheng Guang was playing chess with the Emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty, the princes and princesses who had been playing outside came back early because they saw that the family banquet was about to start.

Before entering the main hall, they saw their father and the prince Cheng Guang sitting in front of a stone table in a pavilion by the lake, playing chess seriously.

"Why is father playing chess with the prince?"

"Who knows? It's really strange. I haven't seen father playing chess with us."

"Should we go over and take a look?"

"Forget it. Don't think father hasn't scolded you enough? Don't go over."

The princes and princesses stopped in the distance, not daring to get close, but just watching silently from a distance.

Even though the distance was far, with their cultivation, they could see the contents of the ancient chessboard clearly.

"What kind of chess is this?"

"I've never seen it before..."

"This chessboard is almost full, who do you think will win?"

"I don't understand, and it's hard to comment, but I think my father will win."

They whispered.

While the princes and princesses were discussing, the chessboard battle in the pavilion had reached a critical point.

The speed of both sides' moves was getting faster and faster.

When the last chess piece filled the last gap on the chessboard, the Great Zhou Emperor smiled and threw the stone in his hand away.

"It's a tie, you have some strength."

Cheng Guang smiled at the Great Zhou Emperor, but he didn't show any flattered expression. Just when he was about to say something, he saw the Great Zhou Emperor waved his hand again.

"Okay, there's no need to say some things. Even if it's a draw, you win. I keep my word."

After the Great Zhou Emperor finished speaking, he stood up and walked towards the main hall. Before leaving, he paused slightly and muttered to Cheng Guang in confusion, "How can they be so similar?"

After the Great Zhou Emperor finished speaking, he ignored Cheng Guang and left in deep thought. His figure quickly disappeared from Cheng Guang's sight.

When Wu Ling saw that the Great Zhou Emperor had gone far away, she slowly breathed a sigh of relief, patted her chest lightly, and made a face at the back of the Great Zhou Emperor.

For the Great Zhou Emperor, Wu Ling had dependence, hatred, and more of a complex emotion.

In the entire cold palace, apart from the Great Zhou Emperor, the nominal father, there seemed to be not many people for her to lose her temper.

After the Great Zhou Emperor disappeared, Wu Ling quickly restrained herself again and prepared to be a little transparent again.

She quietly looked up at Cheng Guang, as if she wanted to say something, but she noticed that Cheng Guang was sweating all over, and the sweat on his forehead began to slide down his face.

"You, is it so tiring to play chess?"

Wu Ling was surprised, and at the same time took out a handkerchief and carefully helped Cheng Guang wipe the sweat off his face.

After only a quarter of an hour together, Wu Ling became very close to Cheng Guang, either wanting to please Cheng Guang, or having been with Cheng Guang for a while, she felt good about him.

Cheng Guang thanked him, took the handkerchief, and wiped his forehead a few times.

He was not tired, but scared.

Others may not understand what the Great Zhou Emperor just said, but he did not understand that how could the Great Zhou Emperor say that he was so similar, and he was not referring to other things, but to the prince who was traveling outside at this time!

The Great Zhou Emperor discovered that he was a fake.

When did he discover it? ?

Was it from the beginning? Or after talking to himself? ?

Cheng Guang didn't understand.

What Cheng Guang couldn't understand was that after knowing that he was a fake, the Great Zhou Emperor didn't punish him at all, and didn't intend to expose him.

Cheng Guang didn't believe that the Great Zhou Emperor would let him go because of the outcome of a chess game. The chess game bet was just an excuse.

The Great Zhou Emperor's mind was completely incomprehensible. Before the Great Zhou Emperor, Cheng Guang had deceived Princess Wu Yuemei, Empress Dowager Li and Queen Wang.

So he subconsciously felt that he might be able to deceive the Great Zhou Emperor.

However, he underestimated the practitioners in this world after all.

Ordinary practitioners can detect something wrong with careful attention, let alone a man like the Great Zhou Emperor who has cultivated to the top of the world.

Maybe he saw through himself at a glance.

Cheng Guang thought in his heart, and at the same time he was glad.

Although he didn't know what the Great Zhou Emperor was thinking, the result was still good.

He was not punished. As long as the Emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty did not say anything, he would continue to act in the same way as before, and the possibility of being exposed would still be small, which was enough to last until he returned.

When the prince came back, his job as a stand-in would be over, and he would run away at that time!

"Prince, why are you in a daze..."

Wu Ling raised his hand and shook it in front of Cheng Guang.

After a short time together, Wu Ling had let down his guard against Cheng Guang. In a sense, Cheng Guang had become Wu Ling's first friend in the palace.

It is not complicated to establish a friendship. It is enough to get along happily.

Wu Ling subconsciously became closer to Cheng Guang.

Cheng Guang came back to his senses and laughed. "I'm fine. I was just thinking about how to beat my uncle."

"It's probably difficult to beat him. You have to work harder." Wu Ling thought about it seriously and gave his opinion.

Cheng Guang nodded slightly, and then chatted with Wu Ling for a few more words.

After a while, a eunuch came out from the main hall to call Cheng Guang and a group of princes and princesses in.

After entering the main hall, they found that the family banquet was about to begin.

The Emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty, Empress Dowager Li, Princess Yuemei, Queen Wang, and several imperial concubines have all taken their seats.

The Emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty and Empress Dowager Li sat on the top, and the others were arranged in order of status and closeness.

Beside Empress Dowager Li, Princess Yuemei saw Cheng Guang coming in and stood up and waved.

"Guang'er, come and sit next to me."
