Xie Tingzhou ignored him and pressed the black piece on the chessboard. Li Jifeng looked down for a long time and said, "You really don't even have a breath left for me."

He waved, and the little eunuch standing aside skillfully took out a banknote from his sleeve and placed it respectfully on the couch.

There was already a small stack of banknotes stacked there, all in denominations of one thousand taels.

Xie Tingzhou didn't even look at it. He weighed the chess pieces in his hand and asked, "You still want to play?"

Li Jifeng looked at the young eunuch. The eunuch spread his hands and made a sad face, indicating that he had no money.

"No more," Li Jifeng stroked his son, "You are too stingy. What kind of friendship do we have? It was a friendship because we clapped hands for the same person who broke his leg. You still charge money to play chess with me!"

Xie Tingzhou threw the money into the basket and said, "I won't do it if others offer me money."

The maid stepped forward and quickly took away the chessboard and placed refreshments again.

Li Jifeng glanced at the maids and asked, "Why didn't you bring those beauties I sent you last year?"

"Give it away." Xie Tingzhou said calmly.

"Giving it away?!" Li Jifeng raised his voice, "The most beautiful one was also given away?"

"delivered."

Li Jifeng covered his chest and said sadly: "Xie Yun! I didn't want to use that girl myself, so I kept it specially to give it to you, and you just gave it away like this?! You didn't want you to give it back to me?"

Xie Tingzhou picked up the tea cup and skimmed the foam, "I thought you didn't want it, so I gave it to me."

Li Jifeng felt heartbroken when he thought about it, as if he secretly kept the snacks that he didn't want to eat and gave them to others, but they just threw them away.

"Where's Cang?"

"The yard next door."

"You let it come out," Li Jifeng said, rolling up his sleeves as if he was about to have a big fight: "You let it come out and bite me to death. I'll give in to all my sincerity. You..."

"Xifeng." Xie Tingzhou interrupted him.

"No, no, no, no," Li Jifeng quickly smiled and pressed Xie Tingzhou's arm, "I'm just kidding, don't let go, don't let go, that guy looks like he wants to eat me every time he sees me."

He casually picked up a piece of snack and put it into his mouth. He glanced around and found Xie Tingzhou staring at the snack in his hand.

The look in his eyes was a little strange, as if he was troubled.

Li Jifeng took a look at it, chewed some snacks and said, "You're not so stingy, are you? It's just a piece of pineapple cake."

Xie Tingzhou's gaze didn't move, which made Li Jifeng feel frightened. He shivered and put the remaining half of the pineapple cake in his hand back on the plate.

"Give it back to you."

Xie Tingzhou said nothing and stared at the snacks on the table.

Why would he think of Shigure?

He remembered that the two of them played chess on the way back to Beijing. At first he behaved well, but then he got bored on the way to Beijing with the escort, so he got bored and bought a chess set.

Shigure arranged it well, including hot tea and snacks. He remembered that one of the things Shigure particularly liked was pineapple cake.

Often the stack of pineapple cakes is gone before a round is played.

Xie Tingzhou suddenly felt agitated. He raised his fingers and pressed his eyebrows hard.

Li Jifeng felt that the Xie Tingzhou he met this time was a little unusual.

It didn't take long for the two of them to be separated, which was the year before last. The two occasionally exchanged letters, but he had never seen Xie Tingzhou who was so deeply troubled.

Li Jifeng couldn't think of anything that could upset Xie Tingzhou so much. He looked a bit like his sixth brother who discovered that the girl he had just married actually liked his seventh brother. His sixth brother was probably like this at that time. expression.

"Could it be that..." Li Jifeng circled around him, "could it be that the girl you like actually likes someone else?"

Xie Tingzhou looked at him like an idiot, "Are you full? Get out when you are full."

Li Jifeng drank a few sips of hot tea and didn't even finish a piece of pineapple cake. How could he feel full?

But he felt that if he didn't leave, that guy Xie Yun might really come out and bite him.

Li Jifeng walked out cheerfully.

Changliu immediately stepped forward to lead the way and said comfortingly: "Don't be angry, Your Majesty Ninth Prince. The prince has encountered some troubles these past few days. He will be fine in a few days."

Li Jifeng became more energetic, "What's bothering you?"

Changliu said: "It's not a big deal, it's just that there is a guard in the prison."

"Is Xie Yun sick? Why is he bothered by a guard? Did the guard stab him?" Li Jifeng asked curiously.

I kept thinking that it wasn't just a poke, it was a poke in the heart.

Then he smiled and said: "I don't know either. Your Majesty the Ninth Prince is here to invite you."

Li Jifeng thought about it and suddenly stopped, "You take me to see it, I want to see who it is."

"That can't be done." Changliu refused immediately.

Li Jifeng hooked Chang Liu's neck, "What are you afraid of? I'll just take a look. What if I think of a way to persuade him after taking a look?"

Chang Liu thought to himself that it seemed okay, but it was just for a look, and Xie Tingzhou had never told anyone not to see anyone.

The dungeon was dark, with torches on the walls.

Shen Yu was sleeping when Li Jifeng left.

She lay on her side on the straw mat. The quilt on her body was a little thin and could not block the cold air in the dungeon. She curled up into a ball.

Li Jifeng grabbed the railing and looked inside. Hidden under the dark quilt was a small fair face, so delicate and delicate that he looked pitiful.

"Is he, he, he, a man?" Li Jifeng asked.

Changliu said matter-of-factly: "Can Konoe be a woman?"

Li Jifeng thought for a while, stared at Shen Yu for a while, and shook his head, "It's over, he's done thanking Tingzhou."

"What do you mean, Your Highness Ninth Prince?" Changliu asked doubtfully.

Li Jifeng strode out, "The boy looks like a girl, but looks like a boy but not a girl. We get along day and night, and as time goes by, we fall in love, eh - stay forever!"

Li Jifeng turned around and said, "Have you noticed that my literary talent has become better? I just said four idioms in a row."

Changliu was speechless: "..."

How could Xie Tingzhou make such a friend?

There were one hundred thousand mercenaries in Beilin. Originally, the prince and the Crown Prince of Beilin were taboo, but Li Jifeng was different.

He, Li Jifeng, was the ninth son of Emperor Tongxu. He was notoriously uneducated and incompetent. Even if he made friends with Xie Tingzhou, no one would interfere because everyone believed that he was a piece of shit who couldn't hold up a wall.

Fortunately, I was lucky enough to be born into an imperial family, so I would have no worries about food and clothing for the rest of my life.

Chang Liu smiled dryly and said: "Indeed, His Highness Ninth Prince speaks with great literary talent."

"I think so too." Li Jifeng said cheerfully: "Where did I just say it?"

Changliu answered: "As time goes by, love grows."

Li Jifeng: "Yes! As time goes by, love grows, and he is done with it."

"Your Majesty Ninth Prince, you are going the wrong way." Seeing Li Jifeng who was so excited that he went the wrong way, Changliu reminded him at the right time.

"I have to verify one thing first." Li Jifeng walked towards Xie Tingzhou's yard with his head held high, "My dear friend is going through a big problem in life, how can I abandon him at this moment!"
