Xiao Hanqi looked at Cao Su in confusion and asked, "Why are you laughing at me?"

Cao Su looked at Xiao Hanqi and said, "Why do you say I am laughing at you? Of course I am laughing at you for not knowing how to judge people and being such a fool!"

Xiao Hanqi looked at Cao Su with disdain and said, "You said I don't know how to judge people and I'm stupid. Then I want to ask you, what about you?"

Cao Su was stunned by Xiao Hanqi's question and stood there without saying anything. Xiao Hanqi continued to say to Cao Su, "It seems that you and I are both stupid and don't know how to judge people. In that case, let's not blame each other. Just tell me, what do you want us to do in exchange for leaving here?"

When Cao Su heard what Xiao Hanqi said, he sneered and said, "Is that how you talk to your brother?"

Xiao Hanqi looked at Cao Su with disdain and said, "What? Is it wrong for me to talk to you like this? And who said you are my brother? Your last name is Cao and mine is Xiao!"

Cao Su looked at Xiao Hanqi coldly and said, "Are you really so heartless?"

When Xiao Hanqi heard Cao Su's words, he immediately interrupted and said, "Don't make me sound like a heartless person. I'm not. If I were you, I'd be wrong!"

Cao Su sneered again and said to Qiu Niang, "Qiu Niang, please go down."

Qiu Niang looked at Cao Su with a worried look on her face and said, "What about you?"

Cao Su looked at Xiao Hanqi with a smile, and said to Qiu Niang, "I want to have a good reunion with my brother."

Qiu Niang looked at Xiao Hanqi and said to Cao Su, "Okay!"

Qiu Niang left without looking back.

Cao Su said to Xiao Hanqi, "Come on, let's go upstairs and play a good game."

Xiao Hanqi nodded and followed Cao Su upstairs. Cao Su opened the door. As soon as Xiao Hanqi entered, he saw a gorgeous carved bed with brocade bedding on it. There might be a few books on the pillow. In the corner of the room, there might be a desk with four treasures of the study and some books on it. There might be a few paintings on the wall. Near the window, there was a table with a chessboard on it. From the chessboard, the paths of black and white chess were intertwined like a spider web, showing endless changes and strategies.

Black moves first, like an assassin in the dark, quietly laying out his plan and attacking the enemy with his strength. Every move is carefully considered, full of hidden dangers, in an attempt to control the situation.

White chess is like a wise man in the daytime, using cleverness to defeat the enemy and countering the enemy's moves. It is flexible and adaptable, using softness to overcome hardness, looking for flaws in the tight defense of black chess.

In the game, the black and white sides go back and forth, attacking and defending. Sometimes the black pieces will lay a trap to put the white pieces in trouble; while the white pieces use clever strategies to break through the black pieces' encirclement and escape danger.

Cao Su looked at Xiao Hanqi who was looking at the chessboard seriously and said with a smile, "How about it? Let's play a game."

Xiao Hanqi smiled and said to Cao Su, "Okay!"

Cao Su smiled and said to Xiao Hanqi, "Then how do we determine winning or losing?"

Xiao Hanqi said to Cao Su, "What do you think?"

Cao Su thought for a moment and said to Xiao Hanqi, "If I lose, I'll let you do whatever you want. If you lose, you have to give up what you did today."

Xiao Hanqi thought for a moment and said to Cao Su, "Okay, if I lose, I'll let you do whatever you want. If you lose, then you must leave Kyoto and never set foot in Kyoto again."

Cao Su sneered and said, "So you are so afraid of me. Even more afraid of me than that person."

Xiao Hanqi smiled and said, "It's not that I'm afraid of you, but I don't want the people here to suffer. After all, what you want to do and the people you want to support are not what you think."

Cao Su sneered and said, "Okay, then let's play a game and determine the winner from this."

After saying that, the two of them sat on both sides of the chessboard and packed up their own chess pieces.

Soon Xiao Hanqi placed a black piece, and Cao Su was not to be outdone, and the two began a fierce chess battle.

Soon the chessboard was filled with their chess pieces, and the pace of play was slowing down. Suddenly, Cao Su threw the chess pieces in his hand into the chess box and said to Xiao Hanqi, "I lost. I didn't expect that the little brat who followed me back then would be so powerful now."

Xiao Hanqi smiled and said to Cao Su, "It was my brother who gave in to me."

Cao Su shook his head and said, "No, you really won it yourself. It has nothing to do with me, and I did lose."

Xiao Hanqi smiled and said to Cao Su, "Then when do you decide to leave, brother?"

Cao Su smiled and said to Xiao Hanqi, "Today!"

After Cao Su finished speaking, he looked at the dark sky outside, and then said to Xiao Hanqi, "Can you help me tell that person something?"

Xiao Hanqi nodded gently and said, "You say!"

Cao Su continued, "Tell him that I am not giving up just like that. And I am not giving up to him, I am also giving up to you. No matter you or him, no matter who you two are, no matter what happens in the future, I will not let you go. I will keep an eye on him in the dark. If one day I find that he is not good to the people and the Kingdom of Qing, then he will be careful about his throne."

Xiao Hanqi smiled and said to Cao Su, "Okay, I'll tell him."

Cao Su nodded and thought of something, then said to Xiao Hanqi, "You have to be careful of Xiao Tianming. His son is just like him. I believe his son will treat him the same way he treated me before. You must also be careful of his son. After all, his son does not have any of his kindness, but is even more cruel than him."

When Xiao Hanqi heard what Cao Su said, he nodded and said to Cao Su, "Okay, I will. So where are you going next?"

Cao Su smiled and said to Xiao Hanqi, "You don't have to worry about this matter. After all, I said that I would observe you in the dark. So you don't have to care where I am, or whether I am still alive. Even if I die, I will arrange for people to continue what I did. Tell your descendants and your descendants that I will always be behind you and watching you."

Xiao Hanqi smiled and nodded and said, "Okay, then you must watch it carefully."

Cao Su nodded. At this time, Qiu Niang came in and said to Cao Su, "You have to leave here."

Cao Su nodded and said, "Yes, Qiu Niang, come with me."

Qiu Niang smiled and said to Cao Su, "No, no, I have a lot of things to do and a lot of people to take care of. I can't go with you."

Cao Su said to Qiu Niang, "After I leave, we will never see each other again."

Xiao Hanqi could see Qiu Niang's struggle and Cao Su's reluctance. Xiao Hanqi said to Qiu Niang, "Who are you going to take care of? What are you going to do?"

When Qiu Niang heard Xiao Hanqi's question, she smiled and said to Xiao Hanqi, "I need to take care of them here, too, whether it's the girls here or in this tube. Although they are very old, I still have to take care of them. After all, they won't survive without me."
