Reborn Female Assassin Falls in Love with Tsundere Little Prince
Chapter 200 Playing Chess
Yan Kaiyu threw the map to the ground and began to talk about his thoughts: "It is clearly drawn on the map. Pingcheng is surrounded by barren territories on three sides, and only one side has a narrow passage that borders our territory. What is the point of defending such a dangerous place? Even if a large army is sent out to take it back, it will be surrounded in an instant when a war breaks out in the future. By then, the soldiers defending the city will have wasted their lives."
Zhou An thought this was reasonable, but he still felt something was wrong. "But, Your Majesty, this..."
Yan Kaiyu waved his hand and continued, "Don't be anxious, my Lord Shangshu. Listen to me one by one. If you still feel it's inappropriate after I finish speaking, then do as you wish."
"Your Majesty, please speak."
"My northern border stretches for thousands of miles. Bai Wenxian only chose Pingcheng as the attack point. His purpose is to test our attitude. If we send troops, it will suit his wishes. He can join forces with Cambodia and attack us together. If we don't send troops, he can only wait and see."
Yan Ming asked, "May I ask how Your Majesty can guarantee that Bai Wenxian will not send troops to continue attacking us?"
"Minister Yan, that's a good question." Yan Kaiyu took a sip of tea to moisten his throat and continued, "Bai Wenxian is a famous general in the world. I was defeated by him. It was because he was too powerful and loyal to his master. Do you think Bai Luocheng would let such a man become powerful?"
Zhou An suddenly realized and bowed respectfully, saying, "Your Majesty is thoughtful. I admire you."
Minister Min stood up and added, "The Zehuang royal family has always been at odds. Emperor Zehuang has always been sidelined by Bai Luocheng, who values power to an almost abnormal degree. He will definitely not let Bai Wenxian become the commander-in-chief, which means that Bai Wenxian will not be so comfortable leading the troops, and there will always be someone to hinder him. This is exactly why I advocate giving up Pingcheng."
Zhou An was convinced and sighed in his heart: They are indeed old foxes, and the country is so lucky to have them! I am ashamed of myself.
Seeing that the matter was successfully resolved, the emperor waved his hand and told them all to get out. He then pulled his brother's arm and said, "Brother, I'm lucky you helped me with today's matter. Without you, what would I have done?"
Yan Kaiyu felt uncomfortable when he heard what he said. It sounded weird no matter how he heard it.
"Brother, how about playing a game of chess with me?"
"I……"
Yan Kaiyu: I plan to find my wife to play with. There’s no point in playing with you, and my wife seems a little unhappy.
Yan Ruoshi did not give him a chance to speak, and pulled him to the chessboard, saying: "Brother, please sit down first, don't refuse. Although you and I see each other all day, we don't have time to play a game, which is a pity. I miss the old days, which really makes me yearn for them."
In fact, it is not the case. He just offended the queen. Now he dare not go to the Pepper Palace. A pregnant woman is not easy to mess with. He has learned this.
Yan Kaiyu found that what he said was very sincere and felt very relieved for his younger brother. At least he had become the emperor and had not forgotten the days when they had shared the joys and sorrows together.
He held the white piece in his hand, and memories suddenly flooded into his mind. He stared at him intently, reminding him: "If you do this, you can't regret your move."
The reason why Yan Kaiyu said this was because Yan Ruoshi had always regretted his moves in the past, saying that Yan Ruoshi was young or had other reasons that could not be called reasons. He was truly a rogue.
This kind of rogue behavior of bullying the strong and the weak gave his brothers a headache. What was even more uncomfortable was that they couldn't fight back because Empress Dowager Yu was protecting her. The former female general was just playing with you, and you could kill each kid with one punch.
"Don't worry, my royal brother. I'm not a brat. I've learned to save face now."
"Make your move."
The moment Yan Kaiyu made the move, he seemed to be back in his childhood. There was a soothing warmth in his heart, nourishing his mind. Perhaps happy memories suddenly came to his mind. It was just such a feeling.
He had been in the military camp since he was a child and returned to the capital only a few times a year. In his memories full of shadows, this warm fragment of memory was like a beam of light in the darkness, illuminating him, guiding him, and telling him that there was still love in this world.
……
The two brothers paused for a while, and Yan Ruoshi threw aside the so-called face. How much is face worth?
Seeing that the situation of his black pieces was becoming increasingly critical, he went back to his old trick - regretting his moves.
He said quite proudly: "That's good, yes, that's good, brother, please."
It looks like he thinks this is normal operation.
Yan Kaiyu froze and looked at him with both anger and laughter: Good guy, he used to bully the older when he was younger, and now that he is the emperor he bullies the younger. I really regret playing chess with him, I might as well find a wife.
On the other side of the palace, several old men walked out of the palace. Prime Minister Min specifically chased after Zhou An and followed him without saying a word, apparently intending to leave the palace with him.
When Zhou An saw that it was the prime minister, he thought about how he had just scolded him and had not apologized yet, so he quickly stopped and bowed and said respectfully: "Minister Min, I have offended the emperor. I apologize to you here. I hope you will not take my faults seriously and forgive me."
