Chapter 1192 The People in the Story

The carriage drove out from the East Palace, and there were many guards following outside the carriage, and they headed all the way to the Qinghuai Pavilion.

It's already winter, and the passing wind is only whistling into the intersection of the sidewalk.

The charcoal fire inside the carriage was warm, and Xu Xu was sitting in the same carriage as the old man.

The old man also seemed to see that Xu Xu's mind was dark, and there was still a long way to go to the Qinghuai Hall, so the old man suggested, "Miss, would you like to have a talk with me?"

Xu Xu didn't say anything. Although she knew that the old man was just a follower and that it was the prince who really caused the evil consequences, Xu Xu couldn't help but resent the old man as well.

But the old man didn't seem to know, seeing that Xu Xu didn't make a sound, he set the chess table and put down the chess pot in front of the two of them, and asked softly, "Do you want black or white pieces, Miss?"

Xu Xu didn't want to answer, but she didn't want to embarrass an elder too much, so Xu Xu just said in a low voice, "Whatever."

"Since the girl doesn't choose, the old man will give the girl a white piece."

After all, the old man just pushed the white piece's chess pot in front of Xu Xu.

When he and Yu Yizhou were spending time together, in order to pass the time, the two of them would sometimes play chess, so Xu Xu also knew how to operate the old man's Go game.

The old man said, "Why don't you, girl, make the move first?"

But Xu Xu said, "No need."

Seeing Xu Xu opened his mouth, the old man didn't shirk, he just took out a sunspot and dropped it on the chessboard.

Xu Xu knew that she had miscalculated and made a wrong move.At this time, no matter how dazed and recalled, it can't change that defeat.

At this time, seeing that the old man had already set the first chess piece, Xu Xu wanted to distract her thoughts, so she stopped talking.

Only the white pieces in his hand are set in the game.

As the number of moves between the two increased, the dangers in the chess game were in vain. Naturally, Xu Xu couldn't think about the previous things at this time, and could only think about how to strangle the sunspots in front of him.

And she found that this old man seems to play chess without any rules, but when you have this kind of thought, he will always catch you by surprise at the turn of the road.

Or when you think he made a bad move, he will retreat to advance, only to encircle and capture your larger territory.

After being attacked by the old man, Xuxu naturally didn't dare to be careless. She only learned to see the whole situation clearly first, and had to calculate the trend in each area here before she dared to make a real move.

But despite being so cautious, Xu Xu still lost.

But although she lost, she didn't think about the past anymore, but she was unwilling. Seeing that the Qinghuai Hall hadn't arrived yet, Xu Xu looked up at the old man and said, "Old man, why don't we play another round!"

But the old man shook his head and said, "If we play another game, we will definitely not be able to finish the game even if we go back to the Qinghuai Pavilion. You might as well find the old man to compete with the old man another day."

Xu Xu asked unwillingly, "How do you know that we won't be able to complete a game of chess after we arrive at the Qinghuai Pavilion, and we've only gone half way now?"

The old man twirled his beard and said, "The girl just lost to the old man because she underestimated the enemy, but the girl must have roughly figured out the old man's chess moves in the first game, and naturally she will not make moves as easily as before. When the time comes The girl's time will definitely be extended. Besides, life is like a game of chess, if you lose, you lose, and the past cannot be repeated."

Listening to the old man's words, Xu Xu became upset again, "Old man, I heard that you were relegated to that remote place by His Highness himself. What happened to your daughter was probably because of their family. Why are you still willing to be that person?" A chess piece in my son’s hand?”

"Miss, would you like to hear me tell a story?" The old man was not angry, but only asked aloud.
