[Jianwang III] Caiwei Dongshan

Crossing the mountain path with Yu Qihe, Xu Kuang was surprised to see Ye Caisang who had already run away.

She was sitting quietly at the stone table, playing chess with an old man, with a serious and focused expression.

Seeing this, Xu Kuang signaled Yu Qihe to be quiet, and Yu Qihe nodded slightly, without saying a word, and followed Xu Kuang to walk over lightly.

"I lost." Ye Caisang grabbed a handful of chess pieces boldly and threw them on the board, "Senior, don't make things difficult for me, okay, my little girl can only show you a joke with this little chess skill."

The old man laughed loudly, "You child, you really have no patience at all." As he said that, he raised his head and saw Xu Kuang and Yu Qihe, his eyes lit up, "Hey, the two little friends over there are so impatient. The child's friend? How about playing with me for her?"

Ye Caisang turned around and saw the two of them, curled her lips, "Whoever is friends with them, I will do it myself! Anyway, it's just a round!"

"Miss Ye... Sigh." Xu Kuang smiled wryly and shook his head, not knowing what to say.

The old man looked at Ye Caisang who was randomly grabbing the chess pieces and shook his head slightly, "You girl is impatient, how can you play chess well?"

"Qihe, go." Xu Kuang pushed Yu Qihe.

"Oh, isn't it?" Yu Qihe turned his head in a panic, "Brother Xu..."

Xu Kuang didn't change his face, "I don't know how to play chess, you have learned it anyway, haven't you?"

Yu Qihe wept bitterly, "But..."

Ye Caisang ignored Xu Kuang, and went straight to pull Yu Qihe, "Hey, little brother Qihe, you can actually play chess? Quickly show your hands to my sister!"

"I told you it's not my little brother!" Yu Qihe subconsciously retorted, but Ye Caisang pulled him over and pushed him down on the stone bench.

Ye Caisang smiled like a cat stealing fish, "Little brother ~ play chess with grandpa obediently~"

Yu Qihe still wanted to refute, but the old man in front of him had already asked him with a smile, "Little friend, is he black or white?"

So Yu Qihe played chess seriously.

Seeing this, Xu Kuang shook his head slightly, "Miss Ye..."

Ye Caisang replied coldly, "Watch the chess without saying a word."

Xu Kuang was so choked that he couldn't speak, so he had to keep silent.

It was the old man who had just dropped a piece in the star position to save him, "You can say whatever you want, if you want to play chess, everyone around you is not allowed to make a sound, the concentration is too bad." He said With a smile on his face, he watched Yu Qihe, who was scratching his head, holding a chess piece and making gestures on the chessboard.

Ye Caisang curled her lips when she heard the words, "This is the Chess King's salary. He said that someone in Li is not asking me to play three games of chess with him today, so he told me where the person I am looking for is. I will play with him." You guys came after two rounds, isn’t Qihe playing the third round for me.”

"Uh..." Xu Kuang scratched his hair, "Miss Ye, forgive me, it's really...it's inconvenient to publicize things in Tiance Mansion."

Ye Caisang said dissatisfied, "Can I still say I missed it?"

"Uh..." Xu Kuang rubbed his forehead habitually, "Miss Ye, forgive me, we have only known each other for less than a day, if we are as defenseless as a girl...well, the heart of a child."

Ye Caisang was stunned when he heard the words, turned his head uncomfortably, and said after a while, "I'm taking the liberty. You are too similar...I took you as someone else unconsciously. I'm sorry."

Xu Kuang was also taken aback for a moment, then clasped his fists together and teased, "It's a great honor for Xu to be trusted by Miss Meng Ye."

"Pfft, what are you pretending to be elegant?" Ye Caisang turned around and smiled, and Xu Kuang was slightly relieved.Wang Jixin and Yu Qihe were playing chess, and they had nothing else to do, so they stood aside and watched the chess.

Ye Caisang obviously understood it, and from time to time showed Yu Qihe an expression of hatred for iron and steel, but Xu Kuang didn't know chess anyway, and looked up at the clouds in the sky leisurely, not knowing what he was thinking .

"Tsk, I lost." Ye Caisang suddenly said this, and Yu Qihe's teary eye was drawn.Ye Caisang was amused by the little eyes, "What are you going to do, admit defeat?"

Yu Qihe puffed his mouth and threw the ball to admit defeat.

Wang Jixin laughed loudly, "It's rare for a boy to have a clear mind."

Yu Qihe's eyes widened, his face blushed as he was rarely praised, and he stammered after a while before saying, "Thank you, thank you, I, I'm not very good at chess..."

The old man smiled and shook his head, "It doesn't matter, it's enough for you to have this heart."

Yu Qihe blinked for no reason, and nodded with a vague understanding.

Xu Kuang reached out and patted Yu Qihe's shoulder, and felt Yu Qihe's tense body relax.He couldn't help sighing and shaking his head, deeply worried whether the child would be killed by his wife after he married Liu Xiaodi.

Ye Caisang didn't care, just asked with a smile, "Senior, can you tell me where to find someone now?"

Wang Jixin looked at Ye Caisang who looked eager with a smile on his face, "From Huiwu Peak, there is a sky ladder. Just jump over the sky ladder and you can see the thatched cottage."

"Huh? Just walk along the road?" Ye Caisang looked disappointed, "Bai was cheated in three games."

"Where there is gain, there must be loss." Wang Jixin shook his head and smiled, "There is no need to take it too seriously."

Ye Caisang froze for a moment, glanced sideways at Xu Kuang, then nodded slightly, "Mmm... let's go, senior."

Wang Jixin waved to her, "Go."

The three saluted the old man and walked deeper into Tianzi Peak together.

"Why didn't you go back to Tiance directly? Isn't there a rush to pass the news back?" Ye Caisang asked Xu Kuang as he walked.

Xu Kuang was stunned when he heard this question.What he should do when he comes out from Cheng Ao is to report back to the mansion as soon as possible, instead of...accompanying Ye Caisang to continue walking deep.He didn't know what to say, so he hesitated for a long time before saying "I...".

Ye Caisang stopped and looked at him seriously. "I'm not Qihe's little brother. It's okay to dare to come to this place alone. You don't need to worry about it."

"...I was worrying too much." Xu Kuang smiled wryly.He just...subconsciously wanted to help her.

Yu Qihe blinked, "Either... I... I'll go back first..."

"Let's go together." Xu Kuang hurriedly stopped him, "You can't get out of that mountain by yourself."

"Oh." Yu Qihe rubbed his nose, he was really guilty - so he obediently waited for Xu Kuang to talk to Ye Caisang.

"Then...Miss Ye, I'm sorry, we'll turn around first." Xu Kuang clasped his fists together.

Ye Caisang smiled and said, "Thank you very much, otherwise I really wouldn't dare to go to the top of the mountain myself."

Xu Kuang said politely, "It's okay, it's just a matter of raising your hands."

Ye Caisang turned his head and thought for a while, "Then Captain Xu, would you mind doing a little favor?"

Xu Kuang was taken aback, nodded and said, "Miss Ye might as well talk about it."

"I want to find someone who came to Tiance from outside ten years ago. His mother's name is Li, and his nickname is Goudan." Ye Caisang frowned, "He said he was going to Tiance .”

Ye Caisang didn't hear the answer after finishing speaking, so she couldn't help frowning to look at Xu Kuang, but Xu Kuang was stunned. "Captain Xu? What's the matter?" She stretched out a hand and shook it in front of Xu Kuang's eyes.

"...Niu Niu?" Xu Kuang felt his throat tightening, and these two words were almost squeezed out of his throat.

Ye Caisang was taken aback when he heard the words, took a step back to observe carefully, strode forward for a while, and slammed into Xu Kuang's arms hard.

Xu Kuang froze for a moment, and put his backhand around Ye Caisang.

Yu Qihe was frightened by this sudden change, and stood there at a loss... Then he heard Ye Caisang sobbing softly.

But after a while, Ye Caisang gently pushed Xu Kuang away, and wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes.

"God's...well, Xu Kuang." She looked up at Xu Kuang, who was half a head taller than her, and smiled slightly, "We are all grown up."

"Yeah." Xu Kuang took a deep breath, "So...I have to go back to Luoyang now. This time I have a name, and I can always send the letter."

"Letter!?" Ye Caisang was astonished, "You sent me a letter?—But Qixiu has never received an unknown letter."

Xu Kuang was stunned, "I haven't received it either... Did you not send it or...?"

"How could I not have sent it!" Ye Caisang frowned and rubbed his forehead, "This matter is strange, we'd better find another time to discuss it in detail. Tiance has been pushed very hard recently, you should be careful."

Xu Kuang smiled, "What are you careful about? It's not all the same. But this time, it's better to settle this matter as soon as possible - it really doesn't matter if I don't accompany you?"

"Xu Kuang! It's been ten years!" Ye Caisang stared, "You can see that I'm not the crying little girl back then."

Xu Kuang stared at her for a while, then smiled slowly, "Okay. Then we'll leave."

Ye Caisang responded and watched Xu Kuang lead Yu Qihe to turn around and leave.

Just like ten years ago, she stood at the door of Qixiufang and watched Yu Jing leave with Xu Kuang.

Only this time it's different.

She knows what she can do and what she should do.

Ye Caisang took off the two swords from behind, turned around and walked forward.

Let's do the things in front of us first, the old enemy has been waiting for ten years, and he doesn't care about continuing to wait...
