Heaven is fearless

Chu Zhang raised his eyes and saw that this place was very close to the outside of the East Palace. In front of him was a small pool adjacent to a cliff. There was a short waterfall on the cliff. In winter, the water shortage caused the waterfall to dry up.

A small octagonal pavilion was built on the pool. The pavilion was surrounded by light beige silk and satin so that people could not be seen clearly. A circle of braziers was placed outside the curtain, and the palace people stood not far away. When they saw Chu Zhang coming, they all bowed to him and raised their hands to roll up a corner of the curtain for him.

Chu Zhang lowered his head and went in, and there was another layer of curtains inside. When the outer curtains were lowered, the court lady raised her hands to lift the curtains, not daring to let even a breath of wind into the pavilion.

Chu Zhang went in again, only to see the half-lying person inside.

Although there were braziers all around, the man was still wearing a thick winter coat, a pale blue cloak over his shoulders, and four layers of the prince's regular clothes with complete ceremonies. His thin bones can still be seen, and his long hair is half It was only tied with a hair tie, and there was no expression on his handsome pale face, the end of his eyes still had a faint redness and a lingering sharp gloom.

Even though he was already prepared, Chu Zhang glanced over, still a little dazed by the opponent's radiance.

In front of him is a chessboard with pieces scattered on it, and a few volumes of books are randomly thrown on the low table beside him. Seeing Chu Zhang come in, Prince Wei raised his eyebrows lazily, holding the pieces on the chessboard with his pale fingers Click it, and there is a dazzling sound of jade and stone colliding.

"Coming? I heard that you like Zhaocuo very much. Let's play with Gu."

Chu Zhang was stunned for a moment, and slowly walked over, Shao Tianheng looked at the son of luck in an open and honest way——

At the age of 14, his stature is already tall and straight, only a head shorter than him, his complexion is not very good, and he is a little too thin, probably because of the long journey from southern Xinjiang to the capital, it doesn't matter, just take care of him.

The face... the bones are pretty, the bridge of the nose is high, the cheeks are thin, but there is a lingering fear and melancholy between the brows. It should be that Chu Tianfeng raised him as a girl. Just let him experience the charm of power , Naturally, you can develop a magnanimous and upright air.

By then, he should grow into the kind of handsome and unrestrained young man that girls like most.

Just a cursory look, and he sized up the other party. Shao Tianheng felt quite satisfied, and he also liked to see his son a little bit in his heart, trying to get closer with gossip: "Gu heard Southern Xinjiang has strange customs, both men and women are good at singing and dancing, can you also dance?"

He said as if he had never been to southern Xinjiang, but he was not the one who led the troops to attack southern Xinjiang. Chu Zhang heard that he seemed to be deliberately bypassing this matter, and his face was a little more shy. Nodding his head, he replied in a low voice: "Chen... I will, but I can't dance well——"

This is a bit implicit. People in southern Xinjiang worship the ancestor god of witches. They grow up in the mountains and forests. They are the most open folk. They learn to dance and courteous like birds and beasts. When the mountains and forests are lush and dense, they get married on the ground. Dance and music are their specialty. Instinct, how can there be people from southern Xinjiang who can't dance well?

Shao Tianheng looked at him with a smile in the corner of his eyes: "Modest? Gu also heard the reputation of Nanjiang dance music."

He originally wanted Chuzhang to skip a section, but felt that what he said was a little contemptuous of Chuzhang, so he swallowed the words, thinking about how to teach him to be a qualified leader of the human race, and knocked on him. The chessboard urged him: "What's the matter, do I still have to invite you alone?"

He always spoke with a bit of sarcasm, which sounded different from the generous and loving prince in the rumors. Chu Zhang was a little disappointed when he heard it. It was not because Shao Tianheng's tone was bad, but because he didn't hear Shao Tianheng. the second half of the sentence.

He...doesn't want to see it?Dance in southern Xinjiang?

Chu Zhang doesn't think dancing for others is an insult to his personality. People in southern Xinjiang love to dance, which is something they are born to be proud of. It is normal for them to dance for themselves and for others when they are happy.

He is different from other clansmen, he has an introverted personality, and has never danced for others outside of dancing, but...but if it is Shao Tianheng...he really wants to dance the dance he is best at for Shao Tianheng.

The young man stood there for a while with his eyebrows closed, but he still didn't say anything. He put the loss in his heart, carefully sat down against the edge of the chair as he had learned before, his back was straight and stiff, and Shao Tianheng raised his eyes Seeing the trickiness, he sneered slightly: "Sit down if you want, like a girl's house, do you want to find a husband-in-law for you alone?"

Chu Zhang was panicked for a moment, not understanding what he had done wrong, but the noble prince on the opposite side changed the subject of his conversation: "Who taught him the rules?"

The palace servant standing behind him immediately replied softly: "It's Aunt Chen from the Si Lifang sect."

Shao Tianheng snorted lightly, and his voice was neither salty nor dull: "Drag it out, twenty sticks, and the manager of Si Lifang also pulled it out to watch, so that he can have a long memory and don't have to talk back and forth."

The palace man bowed down respectfully: "Yes."

Chu Zhang was even more worried. Could it be that he didn't learn well, but he did what Aunt Chen said, or did he forget something?

He racked his brains, but he couldn't come up with anything. Seeing that the palace servants were about to go out to deliver a message, his whole body began to sweat, and finally he bravely said tremblingly: "Your Highness... yes, what did I do wrong?" Well... If you are angry, punish me... Aunt Chen taught me very well, yes... I can't remember..."

His voice gradually lowered in the eyes of the opposite person who seemed to be smiling but not smiling.

Shao Tianheng tossed the chess piece in his hand casually, and stared at Chu Zhang unblinkingly, until Chu Zhang fidgeted and his ears turned red, and then he twitched his mouth: "I'm just trying to vent my anger on you, you bastard who doesn't know what to do."

Seeing Chu Zhang's confused face, Shao Tianheng sighed: "That's all."

He knocked on the chessboard and stopped the palace maid: "Let them turn around and give Nan Gong a message."

The palace man seemed a little surprised, forgot the rules for a while, and came back to his senses half a beat later, and replied: "Yes."

Before she left, she quietly glanced at the young and immature Dingnan Gong. He was just an ordinary young man from southern Xinjiang. It was not worth His Highness to change the order and lightly let go of a death order. ?

The kung fu of punishing eunuchs is all practiced on tofu. How many sticks and what kind of injuries you want depends on the nobleman. It is not uncommon for people to die in Huangquan. "No need to answer" means that they can be killed. The crown prince seldom orders death, and rarely changes orders. Now, in just a quarter of an hour, both things are for this Duke Dingnan. Done.

It's really strange.

The court lady's slander Chu Zhang didn't know, he was still sweating coldly under Shao Tianheng's gaze, not everyone has this kind of kung fu self-restraint. After being stared at by the prince of Wei for half an hour, his expression remained unchanged. Shao Tianheng withdrew his gaze, feeling a little bullied in his heart Children's fresh fun.

[You are a bad taste...] The law mustered up the courage to point out in his ear.

[But it's very interesting,] Shao Tianheng smiled in his heart, [It's a pity that he has to be a benevolent and good prince, otherwise he can be bullied even more severely. ]

Because in the future, six sons of luck will be accepted as apprentices, and according to the rules, six incarnations with different identities will be worn. In order not to be exposed, the avatars are all one person, and the two of them have also figured out the different personalities of each incarnation. Tiandao also worked very hard to maintain the settings.

"Which man have you ever seen sitting so shyly? That's something I learned for girls. Just be yourself. No one in the East Palace will laugh at you."

Seeing that Chu Zhang was so nervous that he was almost speechless, Shao Tianheng explained mercifully.

"Do you want to hold black or white?" Shao Tianheng moved his eyes to the chessboard with great interest before Chuzhang could react.

When he looked away, Chu Zhang's heart was suddenly blank, and he answered dully after a long while: "I'm...not very good at chess..."

Shao Tianheng frowned again when he heard him call himself a "subject" awkwardly: "In the future, you don't need to be a subject in front of Gu, just do what you are used to. Can't play chess?"

Prince Wei stretched his slender eyebrows, as if he had found something interesting: "You know that your mother is going to marry Gu to please Gu, and you should learn chess well—"

Seeing the bewildered look on Chu Zhang's face, Shao Tianheng blinked and laughed: "Why, haven't you asked about Gu's preferences? Then why are you rushing to show that you like Zhao Cuo?"

Chu Zhang understood now, the prince thought that he deliberately showed his liking Zhaocuo just to please him!

He immediately became anxious: "I'm not..."

With a lot of energy, he and Shao Tianheng made eye contact. When Chu Zhang saw the other party's beautiful and handsome face, his whole body was burned into shrimp again. He lowered his head embarrassingly, and defended himself: "I really don't know ..."

Shao Tianheng was not annoyed, and smiled and pushed a bowl of chess pieces to Chu Zhang's hand: "It's okay, after all, you can't play alone. Do you know the basic rules? Come and try a game, and see how good your chess is."

Chu Zhang picked up the chess piece with a sullen head, and pressed the white piece to the lower star position as he recalled the chess record.

Shao Tianheng smiled slightly: "It's cautious, I don't see the youth's vigor."

A slender and pale hand twirled Heizi and followed casually, as if playing a game.

Chu Zhang stared at the hand, and began to lose his mind again.

The one who taught him how to play chess in the Nanjiang Imperial Palace was also a chess player with profound chess skills. Of course, the moves he learned were standard, but when compared with Shao Tianheng, he somehow felt that his moves were a bit ugly, not as good-looking as the opponent's chic and calm, so he couldn't help but move. Moved his fingers.

In fact, he didn't even have time to play for a long time, and soon, Shao Tianheng's chess moves left him at a loss.

The crown prince of Wei is good at chess, not just talking about it. Chess was originally an heresy, a game played by gentlemen in their spare time, but now he can faintly compete with the six arts. Popular in the world.

Chu Zhang's brain was spinning rapidly. He dug out what the chess masters taught him in the past and thought about it bit by bit. He didn't like playing chess at first, and he only learned a general level of chess on weekdays, but today he didn't know what started it. With the desire to win, he must not admit defeat.

When the final chess game was over, Chu Zhang naturally still lost in a mess. Shao Tianheng lazily dropped the sunspot in his hand and looked at him: "Although the game was messy, he is a bit talented."

Chu Zhang lowered his head in frustration and packed away the chess pieces, when he heard the other party's soft and hoarse voice: "Barely, he is still a malleable talent, do you want to learn chess from Gu?"

Chu Zhang was stunned for a moment, as if he couldn't believe what he heard, and looked up in a daze, and saw Shao Tianheng leaning on the soft couch, holding a golden stove in his hand, looking at him and smiling slightly.

There was no sarcasm in that smile, it was as gentle and gentle as flowing clouds, beautiful as pine trees and green bamboos, and the gloomy and sharp sickness at the corners of the eyebrows stretched out. Looking at this smile, Chu Zhang suddenly understood why the world People say that Prince Wei is a benevolent king.

That smile can hold the people of the world, and the country is thousands of miles away.

And Chu Zhang is also inside.

For a moment, Chu Zhang's heart was beating like a drum, and when he let go of his hand, the chess pieces rolled off the board, and the chaotic sound was just like his heart song at this time.

A teenager who doesn't know love and hate is the most excited in his life.
