MTL - Princess a Lives By Kissing Me Every Day-Chapter 108
The two days passed quickly, and the envoys from the feudal kingdom arrived as scheduled. The emperor hosted a banquet to entertain a few people.
This year's situation is turbulent, the personnel in the court has changed a lot, and there are quite a lot of new ministers, presumably there are naturally many chess masters among them.
The emperor pinned his hopes on this group of fresh blood, hoping to use their strength to avenge his shame, but he didn't want the result to be the same as in previous years, and he was still losing steadily, with no chance of winning.
It's a pity that I am majestic and powerful, but I am no match for a small feudal kingdom.
"Where's Shi Lang Lin?" The emperor frowned, holding on for a long time, his body was already unwell, and at this moment he had countless distractions and upsets one after another, it was really unbearable, "Where is she?"
"Respond to His Majesty's words." De Hai lowered his voice and leaned closer to his ear, "This old servant has called for Master Lin to come here in advance, and she is waiting outside the hall, waiting for His Majesty to summon her."
"Bring her in."
Soon, Lin Moran entered the hall together with the palace servants.
It was still raining outside today, it wasn't heavy, but it was also bitingly cold. When Lin Moran was brought here, he walked too quickly and didn't have time to hold an umbrella, so he stood in the rain for nearly an hour.
Until he walked into the main hall, his hair was still stained with rainwater, and all the clothes on his body were wet, clinging to his body.
"Your Majesty." The envoy of the feudal kingdom raised his eyes to look at her. Seeing Lin Moran's embarrassed appearance, he was very surprised by her identity for a moment, and then said, "Who is this?"
"This is Lin Moran, the servant of the Ministry of Rites." The emperor responded and waved her to sit on the opposite side of the chessboard. "Now let Master Lin compete with the envoy again."
"Please." As soon as the words fell, Lin Moran spoke.
Her voice was a little hoarse, and there was a bit of jerkyness that belonged to a girl. One could tell that she was young, but she deliberately pretended to be an old and dignified appearance.
The messenger thought that she was like everyone else, maybe her chess skills were not as advanced as those of the previous ones, at first he didn't pay attention to her, and immediately dropped a sunspot, and gradually started playing chess with her like this.
At the beginning of the game, it was indeed exactly as I thought. Master Lin's chess skills were really nothing more than that, with obvious disadvantages and loopholes. The emissary didn't pay attention to her at first, and began to attack her mistakes, thinking that the chess game was very fast. can end.
But gradually, he suddenly found something suspicious.
Every move Lin Moran makes seems to be full of loopholes, but if you really start to attack, she can quickly make up for it, as if all the previous things were intentional, a trap she deliberately wove .
That's right, it's a trap.
Dazhao's national strength is strong, so the monarch and his subjects are naturally luxurious and elegant, especially when facing an envoy from a vassal state like him, they are not willing to lower their posture easily, even when playing chess, they are always obsessed with attacking.
She was the only one, taking retreat as an advance, paying more attention to the overall chess surface, silently and secretly weaving one net after another, waiting for him to jump in on his own initiative.
"Your Excellency is good at chess." The envoy paused, and finally couldn't help but praise, "It's the first time you play chess with me, and you can push me to this level."
"The envoy's praise." Lin Moran smiled in response, just like her chess board, with humility and warmth in her voice, without any sense of superiority, "I just observed it for a while and summed up some experience."
"You mean..." The envoy was startled, and once again noticed the undried rain on her hair, and suddenly understood.
"It was I who asked Your Majesty to put me last." Lin Moran said, and also raised his eyes to meet him, with a faint sparkle in his eyes, "After all, if you know yourself and the enemy, you can win a hundred battles."
"This is what she taught me in the past."
When she said this, her voice was very soft, she didn't know whether she was talking to him or talking to herself, the messenger was puzzled, but when she was about to open her lips again, she raised her hand and slowly dropped the white piece.
So far, this chess game has finally come to an end.
The palace people simulated the duel between the two on the bulletin board at the side. The emperor saw Lin Moran retreating steadily, and he was still holding back his anger until suddenly the situation changed and the outcome was completely reversed.
Lin Shilang actually won!
The emperor was overjoyed when he saw this, and was about to speak, but he didn't say anything, when he heard that the palace servants came to report that the Taoist princess asked to see him.
long princess.
Lin Moran paused, and subconsciously looked sideways at the outside of the hall, and then realized that there was really someone standing in the rain, she seemed to be back in a hurry, but like her, she didn't hold an umbrella, letting the raindrops drip spontaneously, ruthlessly Wet clothes.
But even so, she was still beautiful and elegant, as if walking in the rain, her face was not in the slightest bit of embarrassment or distress.
The two of them looked at each other across the hall, their gazes intertwined, and their emotions were intertwined. It was at this moment that the worries and panic in Lin Moran's heart suddenly began to dissipate.
She was no longer afraid, from the moment she saw her.
No more fear.
"Ci'er is back." The emperor said, raising his eyes to look at her, his words were clearly concerned, but his voice was extremely indifferent, "What's the matter, you have to come here in the rain, be careful of the wind and cold. "
"Thank you, Father, for your concern." Qin Yuci stepped forward in response, and knelt respectfully in front of him, "But right now, I do have important matters to report, which are related to Father's state affairs, so I dare not neglect them."
"In that case, let's talk about it." The emperor waved his hand and said, not knowing what kind of medicine she was selling in the gourd, he raised his eyes to look at the envoy below, and the envoy stepped forward after seeing this, saying that since it was a matter of state affairs, He also retreated first.
"The envoy walk slowly." The emperor responded, and when he was about to speak again, he saw Qin Yuci shaking his head in front of him, hoping that he would get rid of all irrelevant people present.
What he said was firm and serious, not like a joke, it made people care very much for a while.
The emperor paused, and was really aroused by her. He wanted to know what was the important matter, so he ordered all the courtiers around him to be invited down, leaving only De Hai and a few close palace servants to serve by his side.
Presumably, Su Lanhua should have been successfully obtained.
It's been a long time since I saw her, Lin Moran was really reluctant to let her out of his sight, but he also knew that it was an extraordinary moment, so he got up slowly according to the arrangement, ready to go with the palace servants to wait outside the palace.
"You come." Qin Yuci glanced at her quickly out of the corner of his eye, then raised his hand to call a group of people to approach.
"What do you want to order, Your Highness?" Seeing this, the palace servant hurried over and waited respectfully.
"It's raining outside the hall now, and the weather is already very cold. If there is no shelter, it's really inappropriate." She said, her tone was a little more gentle and indifferent than before, "Therefore, we still need to I will trouble you."
"Go and hold an umbrella for Master Lin."
