Chapter 43: Playing chess and giving lanterns on a rainy night
Su Lingyue looked at the drizzle outside the window and felt bored. Colorful butterflies were embroidering purses under the candlelight.
She has never liked embroidery and is not good at it, so every year these things are made of colorful butterflies and clothes.
Su Lingyue supported her head and looked at the two clever people, and couldn't help but sigh.
"You have really skillful hands. I can't do it."
Caiyi smiled and said, "Miss is a rich girl, you don't have to do anything, just tell me and Caidie what you want, and we will do it for you."
"Yes." Caidie agreed.
"Nice to have you."
Su Lingyue picked up a piece of hibiscus pastry and put it into her mouth, savoring it carefully.
She didn't like hibiscus pastry before. When she entered the palace that time, Xiao Yu asked someone to buy a box of hibiscus pastry. Su Lingyue ate a few pieces and suddenly felt that it was not bad. Maybe she was very hungry.
Several days have passed since I told Xiao Yu about taking a concubine. I wonder if he has calmed down.
She stroked Xiao Yu's cloak with her fingers. The colorful butterflies had been washed and dried for a few days. He should have calmed down by now!
The rain outside was a little lighter in the afternoon. Su Lingyue picked up Xiao Yu's cloak, and Caidie followed behind him with an umbrella.
Because of the rain, there was only one servant guarding the corridor of Muyunxuan. When he saw Su Lingyue coming, he bowed and left in a hurry to report.
When Su Lingyue came to the hall, Xiao Yu was playing chess with Yan Qing. Seeing Su Lingyue, Yan Qing stood up and bowed respectfully: "Princess."
"Ah."
Su Lingyue bowed to Xiao Yu again: "Your Majesty."
"How did you come?"
Xiao Yu's voice was indifferent, and he glanced at her lightly while looking at the chessboard.
"I'm here to return the prince's cloak. I've asked someone to wash it."
Xiao Yu glanced at Yan Qing and motioned him to go there. Yan Qing came over, took the cloak from Su Lingyue's hand and went downstairs.
It was the first time that Su Lingyue came to Muyunxuan while awake. On the wall right in front of the hall hung a picture of wild horses chasing the sun. All the horses were very strong, and the sight of thousands of horses galloping made people feel excited.
Below the painting of wild horses chasing the sun is a table with an incense burner on it, and the smell of agarwood wafts from it. In front of the table is a small square table, and next to the table are two armchairs.
There are some vases placed against the wall. The furnishings in the house are simple, but give people a very comfortable feeling.
Xiao Yu and Yan Qing were playing chess at the table next to the window. Yan Qing took the cloak that was delivered to him and went into the inner room. His seat was empty at this time, so Su Lingyue walked over with some curiosity.
Seeing Su Lingyue coming over, Xiao Yu asked calmly: "Does the princess have anything else to say?"
Su Lingyue shook her head and said, "Nothing, it's just too stuffy because of the rain." As she spoke, she sat down opposite Xiao Yu.
Su Lingyue looked at the chess game on the table. Yan Qing, who was holding the white pieces, had already been largely eaten up by Xiao Yu's black pieces. There were also a few black pieces on the other side that seemed useless, but would be of great use later on.
Yan Qing only focused on the fighting in the front but ignored this area. Even if he couldn't win in the front, he could still defend this area in the back.
Su Lingyue picked up a white piece casually and placed it next to the inconspicuous black pieces, giving up the other side that had been defeated by Xiao Yu.
Xiao Yu was somewhat surprised at Su Lingyue's move. He had only casually placed a few beads, but he did not expect that she would actually notice them and decisively give up the losing position and start a new game.
Xiao Yu curled his lips, with a hint of admiration in his deep eyes: "Princess, your chess skills are good!"
Su Lingyue chuckled and replied, "Your Highness's chess skills are unfathomable. Would you like to have a competition with me?"
Xiao Yu picked up a black piece with his slender white fingers and placed it next to the other black pieces.
"Princess, please!"
The sound is clear and pleasant.
Su Lingyue chuckled, picked up a white piece and followed.
Su Lingyue and Xiao Yu were practicing chess in the hall on this drizzling afternoon.
Although it was called a competition, Xiao Yu was always one step ahead and would always catch Su Lingyue off guard from a place she least expected.
Before they knew it, it was night. Although Su Lingyue was defeated, she felt a sense of exhilaration.
Through the game of chess, she seemed to have a better understanding of Xiao Yu.
No wonder he could win battles when he was just a teenager. He had the leadership ability of a superior, was resourceful and strategic, and his planning skills were unfathomable. Today, his limits have not been explored!
"Your Highness is an excellent chess player. I admire you!"
"Your chess skills are also very good, much better than Yan Qing!"
"Really? Let's discuss this together some other day. It's getting late today. I'm going back first."
"Ah."
Su Lingyue stood up and prepared to go out when she heard Xiao Yu's clear voice again.
"Wait, it's slippery on rainy days, you should bring a lamp. Yan Qing, bring me that glass lamp."
Su Lingyue stopped, and after a while Yan Qing came out with a lamp. It had a transparent glass lampshade and a gold-plated handle, and looked exquisite and beautiful.
The candles inside had been lit, making the room a little warmer.
"This lamp is so beautiful! Are you giving it to me right now?"
Su Lingyue's eyes lit up and she looked surprised. She had seen many good things in the palace and many kinds of lanterns, but she had never seen one as transparent as ice.
Xiao Yu picked up the teacup, took a sip, and said calmly: "I'll lend it to you, but you have to pay it back."
Su Lingyue couldn't help feeling disappointed when she heard this. Xiao Yu was quite stingy. "Well, fine. Then lend it to me for a few days and return it to me."
Xiao Yu just looked at her indifferently without commenting.
I got that lamp by chance a long time ago and have been hanging it in my study. When I saw it today, I felt that it suits her very well.
Su Lingyue carried a beautiful lantern and happily returned to Furong Pavilion with Caidie.
Xiao Yu looked at the chess game on the table thoughtfully. From her chess skills, Xiao Yu understood Su Lingyue.
Sober, decisive, very good.
