The Crown Prince in the Jade Pendant

When Chu Jinyao heard the words of the prince on the other side, she was startled for a while, and then jumped up suddenly: "No, I don't want to learn..."

Qin Yi said with a sullen face, "Sit down."

Chu Jinyao sat down with anguish, and Qin Yi nodded at her and said, "Take me, let's see how I go."

Chu Jinyao wanted to remind this master that she really rose up suddenly and didn't deliberately destroy their chess game. She really didn't dare to teach her to play chess with His Royal Highness. However, the prince took it seriously, and he actually taught Chu Jinyao to play chess one by one.

Chu Jinyao asked cautiously: "His Royal Highness..."

"what happened?"

"Aren't you busy?" In other words, are you panicking?

"Yes, my time is the most precious. So, if you can't learn it..." Qin Yi looked up at Chu Jinyao across the chessboard, but didn't continue to say the rest.

Chu Jinyao felt the murderous intent in the prince's eyes, she lowered her head and couldn't help but sighed long.

Originally, she played well, but the prince insisted on teaching her, could the teacher even threaten her? What kind of robber logic is really.

The people outside were writing poems, and they were racking their brains to think of good sentences, but no one noticed that Chu Jinyao and the prince were missing. The two of them are rare and quiet, playing chess for a while, only the sound of warm jade chess pieces falling on the board can be heard in the room for a while.

Chu Jinyao frowned tightly, holding Bai Zi between her fingertips, looking at the chess game with a bitter expression. After a while, she tentatively reached out to a place.

"Where to put it?"

Chu Jinyao immediately changed her direction and put her face to the other side unchanged. When the chess piece was about to fall, Chu Jinyao secretly looked at Qin Yi's face and found that his expression was faint, which was relieved. It seems that this is right.

Qin Yi, the person who teaches chess, also feels tired. He thinks that he will be mad at Chu Jinyao if he doesn't speak, so he casually said: "Even my younger brothers and sisters never let me teach them hand in hand. Last time. I will teach people by myself or..."

Qin Yi stopped abruptly. Chu Jinyao couldn't hear others talking halfway, so she subconsciously said, "Who was it last time?"

After speaking, Chu Jinyao realized what she had done. She interrupted the prince?

Chu Jinyao raised her head and said remedy: "His Royal Highness, I didn't mean that, I didn't..."

Chu Jinyao didn't know what to say, she spoke incoherently for a while, and found that the prince was looking at her with a strange look.

Chu Jinyao was startled by the sight, she quietly asked, "Your Highness, what's the matter?"

Qin Yi put down the chess pieces, sat up straight and showed a good look at the show. He asked, "What's your name?"

Chu Jinyao was secretly wary. She couldn't tell her boudoir's name to a foreigner, so she replied vigilantly: "The maiden's surname is Chu, go five."

The smile in Qin Yi’s eyes almost overflowed. Chu Jinyao could refresh his cognition every time. He grows up so big, as long as he asks for his name, who is not both surprised and delighted to report the famous taboo. Sometimes I have to rack my brains to bring other information, regardless of male or female. Only Chu Jinyao dared to be vague and used the ranking to fool him.

Qin Yi was too lazy to care about her, and continued to ask: "Then you know, what is my name?"

Chu Jinyao was really questioned. The prince was the prince. They all called them by the honorable titles of His Royal Highness. What was the name of the prince... She really didn't know.

Chu Jinyao shook his head honestly, and Qin Yi nodded and said, "That's fine, I'll tell you. I have a single name for Yi."

It turned out that the crown prince called Qin Yi, and Chu Jinyao suddenly realized, nodded and praised: "Good name."

Now even Chu Jinyao could see the smile in the Prince’s eyes. Chu Jinyao looked at the prince in a daze. After the other party was happy enough, she heard the other party continue to say: "My mother is Empress Wenxiao, from Zhenbei Hou Mansion, the last name is Qi."

Chu Jinyao then nodded. She knew this. The prince's biological mother was Empress Wenxiao, the queen of the Yuan dynasty. She and the current empress are compatriots and sisters. They are called Empress Daqi and Empress Xiaoqi. This pair of sisters are very famous. Of course Chu Jinyao knew it. She was curious. What did the prince say about this?

When Qin Yi saw Chu Jinyao still blinking at him, he was really funny and angry. It seems that she still didn't understand, Qin Yi gave up and continued to raise points, but tapped on the chessboard with the chess pieces in his hands: "Forget it. Lower your head and concentrate on watching the chess."

Chu Jinyao suddenly felt that this person was simply unreasonable! Did he take the initiative to talk about the royal affairs, and after finishing speaking, he still complained that she was not paying attention?

However, Chu Jinyao thought of the identity of the person opposite, and immediately told herself that he is the prince and his father is the emperor, so don't be stunned, don't be stunned.

In the room, only the sound of chess knocking could be heard one after another. After so long, the few people who wrote the poem had long discovered that something was wrong. When Lin Xiyuan found the innermost room, he saw Chu Jinyao and the prince sitting against each other, and his pupils shrank slightly.

He stood outside and looked at it for a while, then smiled, and tapped the door lightly. Qin Yi had long discovered that Lin Xiyuan had arrived, but it was Chu Jinyao. He turned his head and saw someone coming, and he immediately showed gratitude.

Chess is too difficult for her beginner, especially the prince on the other side, Chu Jinyao dare not even perfunctory.

Seeing Chu Jinyao's expression, Lin Xiyuan glanced at the prince in surprise. The prince's eyes were faint, without any clues. Lin Xiyuan knew something in his heart, and entered the room with a smile: "Why is your Highness here? I waited for my negligence and neglected Your Highness. Please forgive my Highness."

As soon as Lin Xiyuan's voice fell, a damp wind blew into the window, gently shaking Chu Jinyao's skirt. Chu Jinyao held down Feiwu's hair, looked back at the sky, and muttered, "It's going to rain."

Qin Yi also turned his head and nodded: "Indeed."

Lin Xiyuan walked to Chu Jinyao, reached out and closed the window, Chu Jinyao's hair finally settled down. He frowned and said, "No, the second brother and the others have gone to swim in the lake. Come here!"

Lin Xiyuan raised his voice and instructed the attendants outside: "It's going to rain, go and call the Second Young Master and the county lord back."

After a while, Dou Da's raindrops fell. Lin Xining, the county owner and others covered their heads and ran into the house quickly. The maids immediately came forward with dry towels, and the county owner whispered: "After talking about the lake, why is it raining again? It's really disappointing."

Chu Jinyao also followed outside the house, saw this scene, and said: "The county lord, wipe your hair first, the spring rain is coming fast. Beware of the cold and the wind."

Chu Jinmiao was also pulled out by Lin Xining. Now Chu Jinmiao's hair is slightly wet and the corners of his clothes are also wet. Chu Jinmiao opened her hands and let the maid take care of her. Her gaze swept over the well-dressed Chu Jinyao, and then fell on the prince standing behind Chu Jinyao. The contrast was so obvious, Chu Jinmiao cursed secretly, and then asked: "Fifth Sister, we have only been looking for you for a long time and haven't seen you. Where have you been?"

"I saw that you are all composing poems. It's hard to disturb, so I will come back first.

Chu Jinmiao wanted to ask again, when did you come back? Why is the prince there? However, Chu Jinmiao secretly glanced at the prince, determined to maintain his demeanor, and resisted asking.

After Chu Jinyao stabbed Linglong's affairs last time, the princess of the county quickly found Chu Jinmiao's body. Although the princess of the county only mentioned it, and did not punish Chu Jinmiao, it was enough to make Chu Jinmiao ashamed and angry. The discord between their sisters was brought to the front of outsiders. It was a shame. Because of this, Chu Jinmiao didn't dare to go out for a few days, and couldn't lift her head in front of the princess concubine. Chu Jinmiao really hated Chu Jinyao in his heart.

The new and old hatreds accumulate more and more, so that they develop to the point where there is you without me, and me without you.

Chu Jinmiao dressed up specially today. She wore a light blue big-sleeved shirt with a blue long skirt underneath. She was dressed up in Wei and Jin style, but she was also unique. In particular, she herself was skinny. Putting on this large and surprisingly large suit, the more she seemed to be weak and avoiding the world, as if she could be blown down by a gust of wind. Chu Jinmiao clearly remembered that the prince liked the words of imaginary and mysterious, and presumably, for women, he did not like the ostentatious and gorgeous, so all of Chu Jinmiao's dresses were light and weak. Now that the tips of her hair are stained with water, this temperament is more and more obvious.

It was Lin Xining's idea to swim in the lake. Now that several younger sisters got caught in the rain, he blamed himself, and when he saw Chu Jinmiao's fragile appearance, his heart trembled. He said distressedly: "Sister Si, you are weak and can't get the rain. Would you like to go inside and change your clothes?"

Of course Chu Jinmiao refused. After being exposed to the rain, her body was weak and just right. Why did she want to change it? Chu Jinmiao shook his head and said, "No, I'm fine, just be patient, don't bother everyone for me."

Yang Qixia came over in distress when she heard this, and when she shook her hand, she suddenly exclaimed: "Sister Si, why are your hands so cold? Come over and warm up her body by burning a stove."

After such a tossing, all people's attention was on Chu Jinmiao. Chu Jinmiao was very proud, thinking that this way, the prince would definitely notice her. Later she will do something to arouse the prince's favor, and the rest will be a matter of course.

Chu Jinyao looked at these girls and said, "You go inside and sit and rest for a while, wait for the maids, let them burn their hands first."

Everyone walked to the room where Chu Jinyao and Qin Yi had just stayed. After everyone found a place to sit down, Lin Xining looked at the window with a remnant chess game, and said in surprise: "Are you just playing chess?"

Chu Jinyao immediately blushed, and she winked at Lin Xining: "It's nothing, cousin, don't ask."

It's a pity that Lin Xining didn't notice Chu Jinyao's suggestion. He stood up curiously and paced to the window to watch the game. However, Lin Xining was silent after taking a look like this.

After a while, he tentatively asked: "Whose chess is this?"

Old God Qin Yi was sitting on the ground, and instead of answering, he asked: "What do you think of this game of chess?"

When the prince said this, Lin Xining, even a fool, could tell that this was the remnant of the prince. Lin Xining was silent and nodded decisively: "Good chess!"

"Cousin!" Chu Jinyao couldn't even lift her face. She gritted her teeth and said, "I'm fooling around, don't fool me."

Lin Xining's eyes widened unexpectedly: "It turned out to be yours?"

Qin Yi silently picked up the hot tea, but a smile appeared from the corner of his eyes. Lin Xiyuan understood it too, and shook his head helplessly, and couldn't help but smile.

Chu Jinyao was really embarrassed and lost her home. She didn't dare to stare at the master, so she had to anger Lin Xining. She glared at Lin Xining and said: "It was originally the remnant chess of the prince, but I was ignorant when I came in, so I just played with a few chess pieces."

"Oh, Cousin Fifth, you are not just playing around. You filled the chess grid with Baizi from left to right! The mighty ones are Baizi, neat and imposing. The cousin is really good. "

Chu Jinyao made a move to beat him, Lin Xining cooperated to beg for mercy, and said, "I made fun of my cousin, so don't take it to my heart."

Everyone smiled when they looked at it, and after such interruptions, the atmosphere in the room improved a lot.

Strange to say, Lin Xiyuan is also a gentle temper, but the sisters are more willing to get close to Lin Xining, and Lin Xining and any sister can talk. Just like this, several girls dared to make fun of Lin Xining, but if they were replaced by Lin Xiyuan, they would never dare. As for Qin Yi, it doesn't have to be said.

The county owner's temperament was completely opened up after baking in a hand oven for a while, and then after such a play. She was originally a lawless, lively and noisy character. What's more, there is still a prince. The quiet girl is quieter, the lively girl is more lively, and the county owner’s desire for expression is just about to move. I don’t know how to play chess. How about a game with you?"

Of course Chu Jinyao refused: "Farewell, I really didn't play well, why bother to make me ashamed again?"

Upon hearing this, the county owner became more and more determined to play chess with Chu Jinyao. As a man, Lin Xiyuan was not easy to persuade, so he looked at the other two women, hoping that they would come forward to persuade the mischievous county owner.

However, Chu Jinmiao lowered her head and said nothing, Yang Qixia also turned her head and pretended to watch the rain, anyway, no one would catch Lin Xiyuan's eyes.

At this moment, the minds of Chu Jinmiao and Yang Qixia are surprisingly unified, which can make Chu Jinyao embarrassed. They can't ask for it, how can they stop it?

Chu Jinyao was embarrassed by the county owner, and Qin Yi suddenly said: "She is a beginner today, and it's okay to play a game of Yi. If you are in doubt, just ask me."

The prince's words shocked everyone in the room. The prince actually taught Chu Jinyao to play chess, and now he actively said to be there to guide him? The county owner's expression was stunned. Lin Xiyuan didn't see it well, so he quickly said, "Baozhu is not good at chess, then I, the older brother, will be shy and give pointers."

Qin Yi nodded, obviously in response. Lin Xining shifted his eyes from these people, revealing a meaningful look.

Yang Qixia looked at the scene, and it was not too much to see the excitement, so she simply smiled: "Playing chess is too heavy, and I can't understand it. It's not like backgammon, it's more lively."

Qin Yi felt that it didn't matter, and nodded, Chu Jinyao became more restless: "Sister Yang, I don't know backgammon at all."

Yang Qixia smiled and said: "What's so difficult about this? No one will ever come. You can try it yourself."

That's how it is said, but who makes a novice play chess in front of everyone for the first time? This is clearly difficult for a strong man, Chu Jinyao was very unhappy, and Yang Qixia was so mischievous in order to make her angry.

Qin Yi saw Chu Jinyao's embarrassment, and he said, "It's okay, you can go with it without worry."

Only then did Chu Jinyao remember that the prince said he would mention her. Chu Jinyao's heart slowly stabilized. The prince seemed to know everything. With such a person as his backing, Chu Jinyao calmed down unexpectedly.

After the chessboard was brought, Yang Qixia volunteered to raise money for them. Chu Jinyao and the county lord were sitting opposite each other, Qin Yi stood behind Chu Jinyao, and Lin Xiyuan stood behind the county lord. Lin Xiyuan turned around Luohan's bed, and finally stood beside Chu Jinmiao.

Yang Qixia threw chips and the game officially began. The county owner is indeed not good at chess, but even so, he is better than Chu Jinyao, a complete novice.

Chu Jinyao suffered a lot of losses at the start. Although backgammon has a lot of luck, but all chess has strategies. After Chu Jinyao played a few pieces, he obviously felt under the wind.

It was Chu Jinyao's turn to do it again. Before she landed, she suddenly felt an indescribable feeling. It seemed that the prince did not approve of her placing her in this place... She secretly glanced at Qin Yi on her side and found that Qin Yi's eyes fell. At one point, Chu Jinyao tentatively dropped the chess piece, and she heard Qin Yi smile slightly.

Chu Jinyao relied on Qin Yi to cheat and quickly recovered her disadvantage. Later, she gradually became familiar with the rules of backgammon, and she was able to compete with the county lord.

Chu Jinyao found that she could work independently, and could also oppose the county lord, and she was immediately overjoyed. It's a pity that since here, her luck seems to have run out suddenly, and the chips that fall out are always particularly unfavorable.

The scene of the chess game suddenly reversed, and gradually, the county owner was about to win.

Before it was over, the county owner showed a triumphant expression and raised his chin to Chu Jinyao triumphantly. Qin Yi seemed to feel something, and looked back at Yang Qixia.

Yang Qixia smiled softly and generously while holding the teapot.

Backgammon first withdraws one's own pieces to win. Now there are three pieces left in each game. Although it looks evenly matched, the county owner's pieces are very close to the end point, and anyone with a discerning eye can see who the winner is.

Chu Jinyao frowned, racking her brains to think about the next move. Although the game was unfavorable, she still wanted to try her best.

Chu Jinyao stretched out her arms and was about to fall, but her hand was stopped by Qin Yi.

Chu Jinyao turned her head in surprise: "His Royal Highness..."

Qin Yi said without twists and turns, and said frankly: "I said I will guide you to play chess, even if you do the last three."

Chu Jinyao was taken aback, and was about to decline, but Lin Xiyuan on the other side smiled and said, "Okay. Then I will offend boldly and take these last three steps for Baozhu."

The scene suddenly changed from a game between Chu Jinyao and the county owner to a game between Qin Yi and Lin Xiyuan. Lin Xining immediately clapped his hands and smiled and said to Yang Qixia: "Cousin Yang, give me a face, and give me the honor of giving the crown prince and eldest brother. how is it?"

Yang Qixia smiled reluctantly and said, "Of course."

The battle situation suddenly became more subtle. Chu Jinyao held the chess piece in his hand, turned his head to listen to Qin Yi's words, and then moved the chess piece as Qin Yi's hand. Chu Jinyao originally thought that backgammon had too much luck, and everyone was about the same, but after switching to Qin Yi, the same situation turned out to be the same, and the situation that was supposed to be defeated seemed to have become alive.

The last few moves were exceptionally wonderful, Chu Jinyao, a novice, felt extremely powerful, Qin Yi's strategy was extremely skillful, and Lin Xiyuan was not to be outdone. In the end, the two of them both dropped the last piece at the same time.

Lin Xining praised: "At stake, I thought backgammon was just the next excitement. Today I learned that there are mountains outside the mountains, which is an eye-opener!"

Chu Jinyao nodded in sympathy. Although it looked like a draw, Qin Yi abruptly reversed the disadvantage, and Chu Jinyao privately felt that the prince had won.

Lin Xiyuan also generously confessed: "The prince is a good strategy! I am ashamed of it."

The onlookers did not hesitate to praise, but Qin Yi was very casual, as if he had done a very ordinary thing casually. In fact, it is really casual. Qin Yi said to Lin Xiyuan: "You don't have to be overly self-effacing, your chess skills are pretty good."

Lin Xiyuan shook his head and was silent. After this round, other people also clamored to play backgammon, Chu Jinyao stood up and gave up her position to others.

Chu Jinmiao immediately took the place of Chu Jinyao. She originally thought that Chu Jinyao occupies such an important seat and should not let go, but she didn't expect Chu Jinyao to give up easily. Chu Jinmiao was delighted and determined to show his talents and show his face in front of the prince and the prince.

After Chu Jinyao stepped aside, she was soon deliberately squeezed outside. Chu Jinyao didn't argue, and simply sat aside and rested.

The strange thing is that Qin Yi just watched the game all the way and even gave pointers, but before the second game started, he walked away.

Chu Jinmiao couldn't hide her loss, she thought the prince would notice her.

The chess game was noisy, and Chu Jinyao sat far away, listening to them. It was also at this time that Chu Jinyao suddenly discovered something.

Counting her, there are seven people in the house now. Lin Xining always approaches Chu Jinmiao, not to be too obvious after the saddle; the county owner, who has always been like a bully, is also shy in front of the prince; and Yang Qixia is a cousin with a mouthful. Talk to the world in various names.

Lin Xining and Chu Jinmiao, the county lord and prince, Yang Qixia and the son... Chu Jinyao suddenly felt that it was superfluous to stand here.

Qin Yi found out that he was wrong, and Chu Jinyao was gone again. He turned his head and saw that she actually hid outside the room, staring at the people in the room wandering around, not knowing what else she was thinking about.

Qin Yi didn't want to stay in and watch them play chess, he had a headache because of the noise. Qin Yi walked out, but this time he discovered that Chu Jinyao didn't panic at all when he saw him approaching, instead he smiled pointedly.

What are you laughing at? Qin Yi frowned secretly, and asked seriously, "What are you doing?"

Chu Jinyao smiled and shook her head without saying a word. She heard the rain ceased outside the house, immediately stood up, leaned over and pushed open the window. As soon as the window opened, the fragrant air outside the house, which belonged to the rain, suddenly rushed to his face. Chu Jinyao leaned on the edge of the window and couldn't help reaching out to catch the rain dripping from the eaves.

"The rain stopped!"

A drop of water just hit the palm of Chu Jinyao's palm, and she smiled in surprise and stretched out her hands to report the news to everyone in the house. She narrowed her eyes slightly with a smile, Chu Jinyao's eyes were full of water, and they glowed brightly when she was not smiling. After she smiled, her eyes became more dazzling like stars. Qin Yi was dazzled, and the house with the sash closed was inevitably dim. Chu Jinyao stood in front of the window with a drop of water in his hand, and smiled brightly at the house. Behind her is the shining crabapple tree washed by rain, and in front of her is a dimly lit room, as if she is the only one who shines in the world.

I don’t know when Lin Xiyuan also came over. He sighed slightly, took out a veil from his sleeve, and handed it to Chu Jinyao: “It’s good if the rain stops, but the rain is cold, so you can catch the water with your hands, be careful. Catch a cold."

Qin Yi felt uncomfortable inexplicably. He looked at the veil in Lin Xiyuan's hand and couldn't help but said: "What are you doing if you are not married or not?"

Chu Jinyao had already stretched out his hand to take the veil, and when he heard this, he abruptly withdrew his hand. She was afraid that Lin Xiyuan would not come to Taiwan, so she smiled at Lin Xiyuan and said, "My son, it's okay. Thank you for your concern."

Lin Xiyuan was displeased when he was interrupted, but when he heard Chu Jinyao's words behind, the expression on his face changed from cloudy to clear, and the smile on his face became sincere: "Just don't catch the cold."

Linglong wiped Chu Jinyao's hand, and after Chu Jinyao packed up, she came to say goodbye to Lin Xiyuan and the county lord: "The son, the county lord, the prince, the rain has stopped, I will leave first."

Lin Xining was still playing, and the county owner was full of fun. Lin Xiyuan heard Chu Jinyao's words and immediately walked out and said, "I'm leaving now? I'll send you back."

Chu Jinyao refused, but Lin Xiyuan insisted on it. He summoned his close friend and ordered: "Be sure to send the five girls back to the yard."

The little servant handed over, and responded crisply.

Qin Yi stood aside, watching all this silently.

He suddenly remembered that a long time ago, he had asked Chu Jinyao what kind of husband-in-law he wanted to marry in the future.

What did Chu Jinyao say at that time? Gentle and polite, considerate to her, but have a lot of thoughts.

At that time, Chu Jinyao had just met Lin Xiyuan.

Qin Yi felt a little bit and stopped at the end. He also wanted to know what Lin Xiyuan specially invited him out and wanted to talk to him. Sure enough, after everyone left, Lin Xiyuan asked him to put everything in order, and then asked him to sit on the main seat.

Lin Xiyuan said: "His Royal Highness, today, I want to tell you two things. One is to apologize to you for my sister, and the other is to ask you for grace and marry me."
