The general and his spoiled wife

At night, under candlelight, Yun Ci hugged the portrait and was reluctant to let go.

I don't know how many times I read it, and then put away the portrait cruelly, she can't look at it anymore, the more I look, the more I think about it.I think too much, and I don't want to do anything.

She did not forget the purpose of this parting, parting is for a better meeting.

In order to be able to hold her elder brother in her arms openly one day, she has to stand on a high place and be admired by thousands of people, so that she can chase the dream that has been buried for a long time.

She has coveted her brother for a long time.

It's just a month, playing in the command room, she can bear it.

She thinks she can bear it.

Under the candlelight, Yunci picked up the chess record and looked at it with a focused expression. There was a white jade chessboard in hand, and the endgame that plagued the world 300 years ago was listed on the chessboard.

The endgame is unbreakable, and I don't know how many chess idiots who have spent their lives studying chess have been driven crazy.

At the first glimpse of the way of chess, the master who leads the door will take out this endgame as the greatest incentive.As early as eight years ago, the chess master stood on Qi Dao Mountain, pointed at the endgame and said slowly: "Whoever breaks this game can fight the old man."

Dayu paid more attention to chess, to what extent?

Every time Qi Dao Mountain holds a competition, the royal family will show the greatest goodwill. Dayu, from the king to the common people, has a natural love for Qi Dao.

On the day of the tournament, all chess masters from all over Kyushu will travel across mountains and rivers to compete for the title of chess master.

Anyone who becomes a master of chess, Qi Dao Mountain will change hands.As we all know, Dayu has a vast territory, and every inch of the country is firmly controlled by the royal family, except for Qidao Mountain.

Chess Road Mountain reached an agreement with the royal family 300 years ago. This mountain, which covers an area of ​​[-] miles, does not recognize the emperor, but only the master of chess.

To become a master of chess, one would become a veritable master of Qi Dao Mountain.

This is also one of Yunci's plots.

And her most urgent task is to break the mess and win the qualification to enter the Qi Dao Mountain competition.

To teach and educate people in the Red Makeup Society, fame alone is not enough, what she wants is a great reputation, a reputation that is known all over the world.

Yunci's chess-playing hand was extremely steady, and the clear and crisp sound sounded in the silent night, which was pleasant to the ear.

Candles burned all night.

This night, she is not the only one who does not sleep?

In the General's Mansion, the moonlight came in from the window. After bathing, Jiang Huai put on her robe and walked to the small courtyard alone.

Before today, she could still have a drink with Ah Ci, but now that the building is empty, Jiang Huai sits on the steps and blows the breeze.

The wind blew her soft and flowing hair, and her sighs were mixed with the wind.

The stars were shining brightly tonight, Jiang Huai only took one look and didn't want to look any more.You don't need to look at her to know that Ah Ci is doing well. Ah Ci's starlight is brighter than ordinary people, and in the brightness, sometimes it is gentle and sometimes it is cold.

Everyone has a corresponding star, and stargazing is like watching people.After the change of fate, Ah Ci is destined to have an unlimited future. As long as she is willing, she can go far and leave her contemporaries far behind.

Geniuses are always conceited, and so is Jiang Huai.

A Ci was raised by her alone, and A Ci's achievements are also her achievements.

Jiang Huai suddenly laughed, not knowing what Ah Ci was doing at the moment.Raising his finger, he traced the little girl's beautiful eyebrows and eyes in the void, drawing over and over again, but the loss in his heart still couldn't be relieved.

"Why don't you invite her out to play tomorrow?" Jiang Huai said to herself, should she be invited out to play?Where should I go?Luan Mountain?Or Beijue Mountain?

There is no Ah Ci in the general's mansion, not only the mansion is empty, but her heart is also empty.He folded his body and took a few steps, pushed open the door, and stepped into Ah Ci's former boudoir.

A familiar light fragrance wafted out of his nostrils, Jiang Huai's brows and eyes slowly opened into a smile, and she came to the big carved bed, wrapped in brocade quilt contentedly, and fell asleep.

She began to rejoice that everything here was preserved when Ah Ci left, her nostrils were filled with the scent of the little girl's body, and Jiang Huai slept very well this time.

The next day, the sky was bright.

The servants of the general's mansion watched the general walk out of the lady's boudoir, their eyes widened in shock—is that what they thought?The general really has ulterior motives for the young lady!

Jiang Huai was dancing swords in the backyard in high spirits. At the same time, Yun Ci stared at the chess record, her eyes brightened, a smile appeared on her lips, she raised her hand, the chess piece fell, and the end game was broken.

She ordered her servants to send the deciphering method to the long pavilion outside Qidao Mountain, and waited patiently for the competition post to be delivered.

After doing this, she stretched her arms and legs wearily, got up and walked to the bed.

Liu Mansion was peaceful.

When it was time for lunch, Yun Ci opened her eyes sleepily, and softly called "Brother", Nian'er, who was guarding the outer room, stared at her ears, thinking: Miss, is she still awake?

There was no answer to the elder brother who called out, Yun Ci woke up consciously, and rubbed her little face in annoyance——she dreamed about elder brother again.

In the dream, it was not the handsome and gentle elder brother, but the six-year-old boy who held her in his arms in the wind and snow.

Looking at it now, the elder brother at that time exuded a gloomy and dejected air all over his body, Yun Ci frowned slightly, and thought to himself: What exactly did brother experience when he was young?Who would not want to sleep in the corner of the nest in the snow?

Brother, did you intend to seek death at that time?

Yun Ci was completely sobered by this ridiculous idea!

how come?Brother is such a sunny person... Her heart skipped a beat: Do you know his past?Do you know him well enough?

For some reason, Yun Ci felt flustered in her heart. She got up and went to the study room. She dipped the pen in the ink and was about to write a letter. The tip of the pen trembled slightly, and her heart also trembled.

She doesn't know about brother, what she knows is what brother wants her to know.

Jiang Huai deliberately stayed at home today, and when the letter was sent from Liu's mansion to the general's mansion, she had just finished her breakfast.

"Brother, do you miss me today?"

Have you thought about it?

Jiang Huai smiled softly: "Of course there is, my dream is full of A Ci."

Ah Ci... Did you miss her?

Then, should she come to visit Aci today to enjoy the scenery?

Jiang Huai didn't write a reply, she went back to her room and changed into a moon white robe with a white jade belt around her waist, and walked out the door alone.

She missed Ah Ci, so she wanted to see her.

The distance between Tengluo Street and Chanhua Street is not too far. Halfway along the road, when the spring breeze filled the eyes, the guards of the Forbidden Palace in red robes rode their horses and chased after them: "General, please stay!"

Jiang Huai turned around, and the guards saluted respectfully: "The emperor is assassinated, and the general is called into the palace to escort him!"

When she saw the dazzling red robe, Jiang Huai knew that she would not be able to see A Ci today.Something happened in the palace and she had to go.

If I had known this, I would have sent a letter directly, so as not to save Ah Ci from waiting for her.

Her eyes darkened, thinking that she would just pass by Chanhua Street when entering the palace, Jiang Huai said, "Wait a minute."

Before the words fell, the person had already used his lightness kung fu and floated into the distance.

The guard raised his head, and as soon as he saw an afterimage, he couldn't help but feel admiration—it's no wonder that the emperor is going to call a general into the palace, with such skill, just looking at it gives him a sense of security.

Jiang Huai stopped on the roof of Liu's house without resting, and according to the details obtained by sending people to investigate yesterday, she leaned up and flew towards Xunhuayuan.

Inside the door, Yunci closed her eyes and soaked in a wooden barrel to take a bath, and the room was filled with the fragrance of flowers.

Nian'er didn't dare to look too much, so she bowed and retreated.Pushing the door open, just in time to see the young master descending from the sky, he was so shocked that he almost let out a low voice!

"Why are you here, son?"

Time was running out, and Jiang Huai couldn't allow Jiang Huai to say more, she said: "I wanted to visit Ah Ci, but something happened on the way, you tell her, I will come and ask her to go to Luan Mountain to watch the sunrise in two days."

"Huh? Young Master??"

In the blink of an eye, people are gone.

Nian'er stared blankly at the sky, thinking: Young Master's ability to come and go without a trace, really looks like a fairy.

Through a door, Yun Ci vaguely heard her elder brother's voice, and hurriedly got up: "Nian'er?"

"Miss, don't panic, the servants are guarding the door."

Yun Ci bit her red lips lightly, and said hesitantly, "But brother is here?"

"Yes, but the young master has left now. The young master said that he can't visit Miss today, and asked Miss to go to Luan Mountain to watch the sunrise in two days."

Knowing that Jiang Huai had indeed been here, and there was only one door away from her, Yun Ci reacted slowly and covered her heart. After a while, she dived back into the water in embarrassment, and said softly, "Brother, really..." Fortunately, You Nian'er was guarding the door, otherwise...

She shook her head and didn't think any more.

Jiang Huai flew out from the Liu Mansion, and after a while, the guards of the Forbidden Palace who were left far behind by her came on horseback, walked through the palace gate all the way to the emperor's bedroom, and happened to meet His Highness Jingyang.

"My minister has seen His Highness."

Regardless of other things, Jing Jing hurriedly closed his head towards her, and the two stepped into the Xiude Hall one after the other.

The middle-aged Emperor Yu was lying pale on the dragon couch, accompanied by a beautiful woman wrapped in plain clothes.

"Chen Jianghuai, I have seen my emperor and my concubine!"

"Get up." Xuan Guifei's voice was gentle.

Emperor Yu gave Jingyang a loving look: "Jingyang, you go out first."

Jingyang said worriedly: "Father, your dragon body..."

"No problem." He smiled and comforted him: "It's just that I was a little scared. Thanks to the concubine's vigilance, there was no trouble. Jingyang, you go out first, I have something to talk to Jiang Huai."

"Yes, Erchen retire."

"Jiang Huai, sit down." Emperor Yu's benevolent and benevolent appearance is really not like a generation of emperors. He looked at Jiang Huai's slightly serious eyebrows and eyes, and couldn't help laughing: "Why doesn't Aiqing even give me a smile? How can I provoke love?" Are you not happy?"

Jiang Huai's body trembled slightly: "I don't dare."

"You, you, at such a young age, going back to the palace is like a funeral test. Jiang Aiqing, at this age, I am more than enough to be your father, so just treat me as a face, you smile? You smile, I can feel a lot more comfortable. "

A look of uneasiness flashed in Jiang Huai's eyes, and she said obediently, "Yes."

Emperor Yu was amused by her smiling face: "Okay, it's not difficult for you. I invite you into the palace today, and I will leave things to you."

Jiang Huai listened quietly.

The emperor asked her to thoroughly investigate the assassination incident in the imperial garden today, and handed over the Shadow Guard of the Forbidden Palace to her hand.

Emperor Yu said earnestly, "I entrust Aiqing with all my wealth and life."

"I will live up to my trust!"

"Okay, very good." Emperor Yu slowly closed his eyes.

He is not a strong physique, but now he is frightened, so he naturally wants to rest, "By the way, Jiang Huai, my concubine appreciates you very much. If you have the opportunity, you might as well teach her some self-defense techniques. This deep palace and high walls are really instructive." Don't worry."

After saying this, he stopped talking.

Jiang Huai followed Concubine Xuan out of the bedroom and strolled to the back garden.

In Jingyang's heart, Concubine Xuan Gui is a very alluring woman, no matter her scheming or means, she is already terrifying.In Jiang Huai's eyes, no matter how scary she was, she was just a heartless woman.

After leaving the Xiude Hall, her expression turned cold, showing undisguised indifference, silent rejection and sarcasm.

Concubine Xuan Gui is only 35 or 20 years old this year, she just looks like a pretty girl in her [-] or [-] years old, her brows are a little coquettish, her body is unadorned, and she only wears a plain robe, which makes her eyes look like a stranger.Every frown and smile, every anger and joy, wins countless scenery.

She looked at the person in front of her frivolously, and unconsciously picked Jiang Huai's smooth and delicate chin with her fingers, and sighed leisurely: "It's so beautiful that you don't look like a man. Jiang Huai, don't you dare to look at me? Look up. "
