The glow in the sky is gradually fading away, and the setting sun has also changed from crimson to a faint light red. When you enter your eyes, the setting sun is shining, the willows are lingering, and the distant mountains look particularly desolate.
This is a unique weather in the north, and it is undeniable that it is beautiful.
However, it is also very bitter here!
The empress wrote, but was unable to write the ink for a long time.
She wanted to paint mountains and rivers, but she didn't want to paint mountains and rivers like this. Such mountains and rivers were too painful for her to write.
"Hey~"
With a soft sigh, the empress put down her brush and looked at Jiang Yunqing: "Come for a walk with me!"
Although he is dressed in men's clothing, there is no need to disguise himself in front of Jiang Yunqing, no need to deliberately change his voice, and no need to deliberately change his feminine demeanor.
She couldn't help but think of the relief at the moment when she was honest with Jiang Yunqing, even though she now knew that the courage she had to fall in love with was the result of this guy's deliberate efforts.
But I don’t know why, but I still can’t hate it.
When Jiang Yunqing confessed to her before, she had asked herself in her heart that as long as she had the slightest dislike for this man, she would kill him and that little bitch Chi Meng.
But, not really!
She was dissatisfied, but she couldn't bear the slightest trace of disgust.
She also thought about not seeing this man again, but after learning that he came to Yunzhou, she couldn't help but meet him again.
Yes, in fact, she began to compromise from the moment she decided to meet this man.
No matter how fierce she is, she can't change the fact that she doesn't want to lose this man.
The two of them walked to the city tower. There was a chessboard in front of the building, a black and white chess box in the diagonal corner, and two futons facing each other.
"Looking back at the beginning, before I confessed my identity to you, you and I often played chess. But since then, we have never played chess again. How about a game of chess between you and me today?"
The empress saw the chessboard and said to Jiang Yunqing.
"What? You want to torture me again? I have never defeated you."
Jiang Yunqing looked at the chessboard and then at the Empress, and couldn't help but think of the tragic situation when the Empress killed her without leaving any trace behind.
"I heard that you defeated Yuan Tiangang. I want to see if you lost to me on purpose before. Come here quickly!"
The empress pulled Jiang Yunqing to sit down in front of the chessboard, giving Jiang Yunqing no chance to escape.
Of course, Jiang Yunqing had no intention of escaping, after all, his level was not what it used to be.
However, Jiang Yunqing still sat down and said modestly: "I played for a month, 380 games, and only won the last game."
"Even in this one round, you will finally defeat Yuan Tiangang!"
The empress smiled softly, making her feel like a spring breeze without losing her majesty. When paired with the King Qi's uniform, she looked like King Qi.
Although she only regards the identity of King Qi as a burden that must be shouldered, over the years, everything related to the identity of King Qi has been integrated into herself.
She is both the empress and the Qi King!
"Then it's not about winning against him. It's because he let it go. It's not that I can beat him, it's that he wants me to win. Just like the chess pieces in his hand, they can fall wherever they want!"
Jiang Yunqing intertwined the index and middle fingers of his right hand and picked up a black chip, shaking it towards the empress. This was a small agreement between him and the empress, the one holding the black chip went first.
The empress stretched out her hand and made a gesture of invitation: "As in the past, you and I can use this chess game to talk about how the world is doing?"
"OK!"
Jiang Yunqing nodded. The empress's uniform, the chessboard, and what she saw today all showed that the empress had been well prepared.
That being the case, how could he refuse?
"Crack!"
A sunspot fell, hitting Tianyuan.
The empress picked up a white piece but didn't drop it. She looked up at Jiang Yunqing with a smile in her eyes: "At first you said you played because you didn't understand Go, but you still don't understand it today?"
"I was hiding my clumsiness at the beginning. My master and I often played chess. Although my chess skills were indeed poor, I didn't understand it at all. It was just to attract attention!"
Jiang Yunqing shook his head and told all his thoughts in the past.
Although I had confessed to the Empress before, my previous love for her was not love at first sight, but a long-planned love affair with her. However, the details of the long-planned plan were not revealed.
The empress recalled the first time she asked Jiang Yunqing to play chess, and Jiang Yunqing's first move fell on Tian Yuan. That scene really impressed her. She didn't think much about it before, but now that she thought about it, she was really carried away by Jiang Yunqing's appearance. , How could Jiang Yunqing not know how to play Go?
Although she was slightly dissatisfied with feeling deceived, when she thought about it, Jiang Yunqing was deliberately doing this just to attract her attention, and she couldn't help but feel ripples in her heart.
The white stone in his hand quickly landed on his lower right side. After finishing the move in a regular manner, he asked: "What about now?"
"My junior brother has been at the center of the whirlpool from beginning to end. He sits in the Tianyuan position. Isn't that too much?"
Jiang Yunqing picked up a sunspot again and shrugged. Little Bear spread his hands with an innocent look on his face.
"That's not too much."
The empress smiled. Not only did she feel that it was not excessive, she also felt that it couldn't be more reasonable.
Who is Li Xingyun?
A direct descendant of Emperor Taizong Li Shimin and the son of Emperor Zhaozong Li Ye, Yuan Tiangang and Emperor Zhaozong Li Ye jointly selected the person to revive the Tang Dynasty.
Although the whirlpool in the world was not spinning because of him, from the moment he walked out of Qingcheng Mountain, he immediately entered the center of the whirlpool.
This Heavenly Yuan position belongs to none other than Li Xingyun, and only Li Xingyun can sit.
Wasn't there someone who wanted to seize the throne before?
What will happen?
Already out!
"Even so, the foundation still needs to be stable."
With that said, Jiang Yunqing landed on his lower right corner.
"Li Xingyun's foundation is still not stable?"
The empress had another son fall on her lower right corner, but she was a little confused.
"Stability or instability depends on his thoughts."
Jiang Yunqing continued to play steadily, and after falling behind, he said: "Yuan Tiangang provided him with a solid material foundation, but his spiritual foundation is not solid. Fortunately, he was raised by me, and he is more influenced by me. .”
"You said he looks like you?" the empress asked again.
"Isn't it like that?"
Jiang Yunqing asked rhetorically.
The empress also followed suit and chuckled: "They are indeed quite similar, they are all hugging each other!"
"Uh~"
Jiang Yunqing paused slightly: "Is this related to the general trend of the world?"
The empress attacked with one hand, tilted her head slightly, and said with a smile on her eyebrows: "Is it irrelevant? Then what is the general trend of the world?"
Jiang Yunqing ignored the empress's attack and continued his plan. After seeing this matter turn around, he breathed a sigh of relief.
"The general trend of the world, no matter how complicated it is, after clearing the clouds and seeing the fog, it will always be black and white. My junior brother is sitting firmly in Tianyuan, and the one opposite him is undoubtedly the Khitan..."
ps: When I was browsing the comments, I saw a comment saying that the protagonist is a replica of Lao Li, but in my setting, it was clearly stated that Lao Li was raised by the protagonist, so the two people’s personalities should be similar. at.
