Shen Mi knew that the purpose of Li Guo's coming to Yanjing this time was to make the third princess marry Li Guo so as to control Dayan.

They brought Wei Lingjun here to make plans, and they thought they were 100% sure.

Little did they know that this Wei Lingjun, known as the best chess player in the world, had numerous flaws and loopholes in his chess.

In her previous life, the third princess was married off to Liguo, and the prince was in a very bad mood.

The third princess is the prince's sister. Although they are from the same mother, she is gentle and simple-minded. In her previous life in the East Palace, she helped her a lot and even dealt with Shen Shu.

Her love for Yu'er is truly beyond the reach of others.

Shen Mi's gaze shifted to Wei Lingjun, one of the four great young masters. Wei Lingjun was extremely handsome, causing the young masters and ladies around him to whisper.

Seeing that everyone had gathered, Emperor Ren De, who was sitting on a high seat, raised his glass.

"Today is my birthday. The envoys from Liguo and Beili have come from afar. I am very grateful. If I have been negligent, please forgive me."

"Now that everyone is here, let's drink this cup of wine. I hope everyone can enjoy their meal today."

Everyone raised their glasses and drank it all in one gulp.

"Everyone, please take a seat."

Only then did everyone take their seats.

Soon after, delicious dishes were brought out from the imperial kitchen one after another.

Shen Li reached out and peeled a shrimp and put it in Shen Mi's bowl, saying with a smile: "Mi'er, eat this to keep healthy."

Shen Mi nodded obediently, put the peeled shrimp into her mouth, and smiled.

"Sister, don't always take care of me, take care of yourself too."

Shen Li pursed her lips, not daring to look up at Zhang Huaian sitting in the men's seat.

She could feel that Zhang Huaian's eyes were fixed on her.

The sounds of stringed instruments, singing and dancing rang in our ears, and everyone was having a great time eating in the hall.

Murong Che leaned back in his chair, picked up the wine glass and looked at it carefully.

Those eyes, which were gloomy and smiling, were not looking at the wine glass in his hand, but at the girl opposite.

Opposite, a girl in a purple gauze skirt and with a pale face peeled a shrimp and put it in Shen Li's bowl.

It was the first time he saw her being so well-behaved and sensible.

He put down the wine in his hand and just as he raised his eyes, he saw a pair of eyes staring at him. It was the fifth princess of Li Kingdom.

Luo Qingwan's eyes were filled with hatred, which made Murong Che sneer.

"It's been a long time."

The memories of the Liguo Palace many years ago emerged in his mind one by one, ironic and sad.

On the other side, Luo Qingwan, who was sitting in the envoy's seat, said to Luo Yuzhou next to her in a low voice: "Seventh brother, I didn't expect Murong Che to be so arrogant now."

"After humiliating him like that, he was allowed to escape back to Dayan and even gained half of Dayan's military power. This is really surprising."

"If it weren't for him, how could my sixth brother have died tragically?"

Luo Yuzhou said: "Royal sister, this is the Great Yan Palace, this Murong Che is different now."

Luo Qingwan gritted her teeth and looked at Murong Che with a strange expression.

"So what? No matter how high and mighty he is, he was just a lowly dog ​​tied to a chain by you and me."

"It's ironic to think of him being chained up by you and me all day long in the Liguo Palace, thrown into a doghouse, and eating the same food as the dogs."

"Now, he is so arrogant."

Luo Yuzhou sighed and put down the teacup in his hand.

"Royal sister, this is Great Yan. Even if you hate Murong Che, you have to restrain yourself. Don't forget why we came to Yanjing this time."

Luo Qingwan tightened her fingers slightly and gritted her teeth and said, "Of course I know, I'll let you marry the third princess."

She whispered, "This third princess is the most beloved by His Majesty the Great Yan, I think the Emperor Ren De is reluctant to let her go."

Luo Yuzhou sneered and glanced around the lobby. Sure enough, he saw Murong Qing who was eating happily.

When everyone was enjoying their meal in the hall, Luo Qingwan suddenly stood up and bowed to Emperor Ren De with a smiling face.

"Your Majesty, today is your birthday. Qingwan came here this time on the orders of my father, the emperor, and my mother, the consort, to present a great gift to Your Majesty."

Emperor Rende suddenly put down the wine glass in his hand and said with a smile: "Oh? There is also a great gift. I wonder what great gift Princess Qingwan brought this time."

Qing Wan pursed her lips and smiled, "I heard that the Great Yan Emperor was ill, so I came here to give him a miraculous medicine."

The emperor frowned: "Miracle medicine? What miracle medicine?"

Luo Qingwan said: "Your Majesty, this medicine is called Zuilong."

As soon as Luo Qingwan finished speaking, whispering sounds were heard in the hall.

This drunken wine is worth a fortune. Legend has it that it can bring the dead back to life. It is very effective in treating some diseases.

At that time, the retired emperor was seriously ill and nearly died. Murong Che escaped from the black market and brought back a Zuilong.

Because of this, the owner of the black market chased him all the way to Yanjing.

There are only three of these Zuilong in the whole Wuchuan.

I didn't expect that Liguo would be so generous.

Thinking of this, Emperor Ren De grinned and said, "I'm afraid that His Majesty Li Guo sent this Zui Long for something?"

Luo Qingwan nodded slowly, with a strange look on her face.

"Your Majesty, you really see it clearly."

"I heard that in your city of Yanjing, there are countless daughters of noble families and talented men from aristocratic families, and their talents are also first-rate. There are also the four most talented women of Yanjing who are famous all over the world."

"He is proficient in poetry and songs, and is unrivaled in the game of Go."

“As the saying goes, Go is a game of chess, and it is fought with chess.”

"We have the best chess master in our country, Lord Wei Ling. If you can win a game of chess from him, I will hand over Zuilong to you."

As soon as Luo Qingwan finished speaking, whispering sounds were heard again in the hall.

Shen Mi held the teacup, frowned slightly, and looked at Wei Lingjun who was next to Luo Qingwan.

The best chess player in Wuchuan, he is famous for his chess skills in the whole Wuchuan, and is even known as invincible in the world.

In the previous life, Dayan lost miserably and married the third princess to the Li Kingdom. Less than a year after the third princess arrived in the Li Kingdom, she died.

No one knew how aggrieved the life of the princess from Li Country was.

From his high seat, Emperor Ren De chuckled.

He seemed to have seen the purpose of Luo Qingwan's coming to Dayan. He smiled and said, "What if I lose?"

Luo Qingwan said slowly: "Your Majesty is indeed smart."

"My seventh brother once met the third princess of your country in Jiangdong and fell in love with her at first sight. This time he came here to marry into the family of Dayan."

As soon as the voice fell, Murong Qing stood up from his seat and immediately bowed and said: "Father, I will not marry."

Emperor Rende frowned, looked at Murong Qing at this moment, and said in a deep voice: "Sit down first, I know what to do."

He looked at Luo Qingwan with a natural expression.

"I'm afraid that the medicine delivery is fake, and the marriage proposal is real."

"I heard that Lord Dong Ling is the best chess player in the world and has never met an opponent. Now it seems that the game is a dead end."

Luo Qingwan smiled very casually, "Could it be that there is really no one left in Dayan?"

"Or are the noble ladies and talented men from the aristocratic families in Yanjing City just in name only? They can't even break Lord Dongling's chess game."
