The noble boy likes to play chess

At night, Shu Jing tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep. After being taken away in the middle of the night last time, Zimo said that he would definitely come back early at night, but today, it has been four o'clock and he has not seen him yet.While worried about Ling Zimo, he was also afraid of knowing the answer. Today, those people will gather together to discuss the next plan, and maybe they will know who the mastermind is.

When there was any movement in the courtyard, Shu Jing became vigilant. After listening carefully, he found that it was Zimo, so he was relieved, got up and opened the door, "How is it?"

"It's probably because the secret was accidentally leaked last time. This time, I was more cautious, and what I heard was incomplete. It seems to be related to the palace change 19 years ago. They have been watching for so long, and no one came out to reveal the identity of the seventh prince. To you Rest assured for the time being, they are now more worried that the real Seventh Prince will appear and disrupt their plans." Ling Zimo helped Shu Jing adjust the shawl on his body, and then said, "But we still can't take it lightly. In addition, there are people in the court It’s not clear who they are. They seem to be of high status. They seem to want to help the prince gain power through marriage. One is the daughter of Shang Shu, and the other is the younger sister of the general. They seem to have a dispute about which family they belong to. "

Shu Jing closed his eyes and thought about it: After the palace change, it is very possible that the remaining forces will stay in the imperial court. After 19 years, they have the capital to make a comeback. Moreover, one of them is an official of the second rank or above, and recommended Wen Jing Xuan participated in the autumn test, and then had a chance to win the championship. Without arousing the enemy's suspicion, he placed important chess pieces in the enemy's hinterland, and then concentrated his original power on the current Seventh Prince, and it was possible to seize power again.He sighed and said: "The emperor's family will never be separated from the struggle for power. They are weak now, and marriage is the fastest way. That's all, don't think too much about it. As long as you don't provoke us, I don't want to. A lot of trouble."

"As long as they are here, there will always be a threat to your safety." Ling Zimo said worriedly.

Shu Jing said with a smile: "Don't worry, I have a sense of proportion. When the time is right, we will leave this place of right and wrong."

"Okay!" Ling Zimo was worried about his safety, and even more worried that he would fall into it step by step and could not get out. He didn't know Shu Jing's past, but when he first met Shu Jing, it was so distressing. , he will definitely do everything possible to take him away.

Seeing that Zimo's brows had not yet loosened, he asked, "Is there anything else?"

"It's nothing, I will always be with you, protect you, go to bed early." Ling Zimo didn't read Shu Jing anymore, turned and went back to his room.

Zimo has always looked at him calmly, whether it is sadness or joy, anger or laughter, never hides, why is he evasive today?The more you don't talk about it, the more you worry about it. Is it the Seventh Prince's business?Or is it his own business?

In the early morning of the next day, someone came to the second prince's mansion, asking Shu Jing to teach the sixth prince martial arts.Ling Zimo was worried, and followed him until the second prince's mansion before going back.

This mansion is not actually the second prince's mansion, because it is the place where the current emperor lived when he was still a prince. The second prince has not been in Shengjing all year round, and has not given him a mansion. Living here, therefore, no one has any objection to the sixth prince living here.

The Seventh Prince's Mansion is nothing more than a main building, two small courtyards, and a small garden, that's all, and the area here can be as large as four or five Seventh Prince's Mansions.

The second prince did not live in the main courtyard, but lived in a small courtyard. Shu Jing followed the housekeeper through the main courtyard, walked through the garden, and walked towards an old and small but very lively courtyard. Meet the second prince.

Although this mansion is the place where Shu Jing was born, he has no impression at all. He moved to the palace when he was three years old. He doesn't understand why the second prince chooses to live there. The second brother should remember the days here , At that time, he was 11 years old.Walking into the courtyard, I feel that the flowers, plants and trees here have been carefully taken care of, patchwork and still showing vitality in this late autumn.

Shu Jing stood in the hall for a while before he saw the second prince come out. He was wearing ordinary home clothes, his hair was simply tied to one side, his face was reddish, and there were some traces of dampness on the ends of his hair. It was obvious that he had just come out of the bath. Seeing Shu Jing Already there, I just let him sit down casually, and said: "Thinking that people who practice martial arts are usually used to getting up early, so I sent someone to invite you early in the morning, what's the inconvenience?"

"No." Shu Jing thought, he is fine, Wen Yang should not get up yet.After meeting him several times, Shu Jing still felt at a loss when facing his second brother.

"Your temperament is very gentle, but Wen Yang is self-willed and spoiled. He has suffered a lot since he was a child. Everyone is used to it. I hope you will take care of me." The second prince said sincerely.

With his status as a prince, why bother to say such things to a commoner, it's all for Wen Yang's sake!Shu Jing didn't expect the second prince to say such words. The second elder brother used to be gentle, but he acted decisively, and the owner of the dark pavilion was even more arrogant. No matter which one he was, it seemed that he would not say such words. He raised his eyebrows in astonishment. At the beginning, he stared blankly at the second prince.

Seeing Shu Jing's reaction, the second prince smiled heartily: "Wen Yang is too innocent, if the people around him can't protect him, it will be very dangerous. I can see that Wen Yang likes to be with you very much. Together, if you are willing to stay by his side sincerely, I will definitely not treat you badly, and if you have evil intentions, I will definitely not let you go easily."

Wen Yang is really happy, with the care of his mother and concubine, and the care of his second brother, he will be able to live a smooth life in the future. Shu Jing said immediately: "As long as I am in Shengjing, I will definitely accompany the sixth highness, but Shu Jing always I'm used to being free and easy, I'm afraid I won't live here for a long time, but when the time comes, I hope the Second Highness will make it easier for me."

The second prince also knew that he was a prodigal son, so he was not angry when he said that: "It's easy to say, Shengjing is a good place, maybe after a while, you will be reluctant to leave."

After having some breakfast together, the second prince personally took him to the residence of the sixth prince. On the way, Shu Jing looked back at the small courtyard suspiciously.

The second prince saw it, and said with a smile: "That's where I lived since I was a child, and it's also where Jing'er was born. No matter how gorgeous the courtyard is, it doesn't have the warm memories there."

Since I was young, I knew that my mother was originally a court lady by the emperor's side. She became pregnant by an accident and became a concubine. For many years, she had to rely on the concubine's help. From this remote courtyard, one can imagine that their life was not easy back then. .Shu Jing couldn't help but looked back again.

The Sixth Prince's residence was on the other side of the garden. It was a clean and spacious yard. When they arrived, the Sixth Prince had just woken up and was sleepy.The second prince dismissed Cui'er and left another maid, Zui Dong, who was good at martial arts, to wait on her.

This time without Tweety's obstruction, it still didn't go very smoothly. As long as the sixth prince was bored and felt tired, he would think about taking a rest.

Shu Jing practiced martial arts late, but he learned quickly. In addition to Shu Yang's strict requirements, he also had his methods. Practice, most of the time, Shu Jing has learned a lot without realizing it, trying to think back, and finally thinks that there is a method, maybe you can try it.

Shu Jing looked at the sixth prince lying on the ground, and asked, "How about we play a game?"

The sixth prince regained his energy all of a sudden, stood up and said yes.

Shu Jing asked him to rest beside him now, and he spread papers of different sizes on the ground, the distances were either far or near, and he found a few beans, soaked them in ink and put them on the white paper. The rules of the game are as follows: two people choose A row, both feet step on a piece of white paper, two people scissors, rock and paper decide who will go first, each step must be the basic steps of martial arts, whoever comes first wins, and the loser will be punished by jumping a frog, Roll one bean and add two, and if you fall halfway, you have to start from the beginning.Shu Jing walked through both columns, demonstrating the movements and confirming that the distance was reasonable.

When the sixth prince heard that he wanted to guess the boxing game, it was not certain who would win or lose, so he agreed without even thinking about it.

As a result, every time the frog jumps, it is always the sixth prince, because he always falls and starts again, and he finally stops falling. Every step he steps on, the beans move, adding a lot of frog jumps.

As soon as he played the game, the sixth prince didn't know he was tired, he knew he hadn't won, so he was so unwilling!He didn't want to rest until his legs were so sore that he couldn't stand up.

Shu Jing also felt that he practiced well today, so he let him go.After the sixth prince took a bath and changed his clothes, Shu Jing still carefully massaged his legs and relaxed his muscles.

The sixth prince looked at Shu Jing, and suddenly said: "Jing'er, my mother and concubine mentioned to me about marrying a wife yesterday, do you think this wife will play with me all the time like you? Or is she like Tweety?" Someone who has always been in charge of me? If it's like Tweety, I'd rather not marry."

Shu Jing said with a smile: "Wen Yang, most men marry at the age of 20. You are 22 this year. You should think about it carefully. You can only be considered a grown-up when you have a family and children. Tweety Looking at you also cares about you, cares about you, I think a girl like her is very good."

"But I want to marry someone like you." The sixth prince said innocently.

Shu Jing froze for a moment. Could it be that I have been with him for a long time and unknowingly affected him?What did I do in front of him? !He had no choice but to say: "There are so many good girls, but you don't know that's all. Your mother concubine helped you choose, and it must be suitable for you. You don't have to think too much."

At the place of the sixth prince, Zui Dong just bowed his head and did things without speaking. Later, he reported their words and deeds to the second prince. The second prince did not expect that Shu Jing would take such good care of Wen Yang. Wen Yang wanted to marry a There are some reasons for a wife like him. The two have never met each other, and it's not love. Why is he like this?The second prince didn't think that a person would pay so much to a stranger for no reason.
