Nan Lichen did not refuse, and the two sat down. Nan Lichen held the white stones, and Nan Batian held the black stones. Time passed by, and soon, the chessboard was filled with white stones and black stones. Nan Lichen was calm and composed, and Nan Batian

Tian Que thought hard and couldn't drop the sunspot in his hand. Finally, Nan Batian

He threw the black piece in his hand onto the chessboard and disrupted the chess pieces. This made Nan Lichen particularly surprised. You know, the two of them have been playing chess for so many years, and Nan Batian has never been so close to "cheating".

Even if he lost, Nan Batian also lost very skillfully.

"Hey, I'm old, I'm old." Nan Batian sighed, "My brain is not enough."

"Brother Emperor is in his prime, how can he grow old?" Nan Lichen raised his eyebrows and raised the corners of his mouth slightly. This is not the first time that Brother Emperor has cried like this. Every time in the past, he used this excuse to urge him.

Getting married, this time...

"The number of times I have beaten you is almost zero now, how can I not be convinced?" Nan Batian chuckled, but there was a flash of light in his experienced eyes, and he looked at Nan Lichen thoughtfully,

He continued, "Now that you have someone you love, I don't have to worry about your marriage anymore. When the time is right, we will arrange the marriage! But... I still have one more thing for you to do."

"What's the matter, brother? Just give me instructions." When Mu Yueli was mentioned, the gentleness in Nan Lichen's eyes became more intense.

Nan Batian walked to the desk and took out the imperial seal. Nan Lichen looked at his actions, his eyes tightened, and he had a vague premonition.

"Brother, in terms of talent, virtue, and arrogance, all my sons are inferior to you. You are my only brother. I have always treated you as if I were my own son. I want to hand over the kingdom of this great dynasty in a hundred years."

If I get it in your hands, my ancestors will not be disappointed." Nan Batian held the imperial seal and handed it to Nan Lichen.

Nan Lichen suddenly knelt on the ground, "Brother Emperor, this...is not allowed!"

The emperor's brother loves him very much and has recruited him as an official in the court more than once, but this is the first time he has said these words. How can he be so worthy and loved by the emperor's brother?

"Why not? You also have the blood of the royal family of my dynasty in your body. Passing the throne to you will not violate anything." Nan Batian said firmly. He made this decision after careful consideration. Nan Lichen

His talents are indeed much better than those of his sons, but he has never wanted to enter the court. If he were an official in the court, he would definitely have many forces of his own in the court at this moment.

A trace of bitterness appeared at the corner of Nan Lichen's mouth, "Brother I am going to live up to the high expectations of the emperor. Brother, why have you been here all these years? Brother Huang, don't you understand?"

Nan Batian's hand holding the imperial seal suddenly froze, and he looked at Nan Lichen, his eyes changing again and again, "Why are you doing this? Do you know that the Yunye royal family and the three major gates are deeply rooted, so how can you be alone?

It can be shaken by the strength of the mother? If the queen mother knew, she would not want to see you working so hard."

"No matter how difficult it is, I will avenge my mother. One day, I will go back." There was a hint of gloom in Nan Lichen's eyes. In the depth, there seemed to be changes in the situation, "Even if I dig out bit by bit

I will spare no effort to destroy their foundation!"

"Hey... you... you can never forget how your mother died, but over the years, looking at the hatred in your heart, the emperor also understands that my mother must have suffered a lot during her lifetime. I really should have killed her back then.

Emperor Yunye, otherwise the Queen Mother would also

No, I..." Nan Batian choked up a little when he said this. If he had the ability, he should avenge his mother, but he is the emperor of the great dynasty and has a heavy burden, so he cannot ignore this.

Thousands of people of the great dynasty.

Nan Lichen thought of his mother's death and subconsciously clenched his hands into fists, "Brother, don't worry, I will avenge my mother's revenge."

"This jade seal..." Nan Batian frowned. In fact, he wanted to pass the emperor's position to Nan Lichen. On the one hand, he hoped to divert his attention so that he could slowly forget his hatred. Just

The Yunye royal family is already powerful enough, plus Yunye's three major watchmen. Yunye's three major watchmen are not comparable to the four major aristocratic families of Dachao Kingdom. The four major aristocratic families of Dachao are even more powerful than Yunye.

Watching the door three times a night is like the egg and the stone.

However, seeing the determination in Nan Lichen's eyes, Nan Batian knew how strong this younger brother's determination was, and he might not be able to shake it.

"Brother Imperial, you are still strong, keep this!" Nan Lichen said, as if thinking of something, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, "Brother Imperial, among these nephews, His Highness the Crown Prince has done some things indeed.

He is not good enough, but he still has the talents of an emperor. If the emperor can train him well, the throne will be passed to the prince in the future, and the dynasty will be more prosperous."

How could he not understand what the emperor was thinking? How could he not see that the emperor was a shrewd person and a talented prince? Nan Batian was startled, and when he met Nan Lichen's eyes, he actually laughed.

He laughed and said, "You are indeed my younger brother. I thought I did everything perfectly, but you still saw through it at a glance. Brother, what does a prince mean? As long as you are willing, I..."

Nan Lichen smiled and shook his head, but his smile seemed extremely bitter. How should he repay the emperor's brother for his great kindness!

At this time, a report from the palace came from outside, saying that Lord Shangshu was asking for an audience. Seeing this, Nan Lichen immediately stood up and left. Just as he was about to leave, he heard Nan Batian's voice coming from behind.

"Brother Chen, thank the second young master for me for showing mercy today." Nan Batian's voice was a little deeper.

Nan Lichen was startled and realized instantly, yes, Li'er was indeed merciful about Ning Yue's matter just now. He saw it, and the imperial brother also saw it. He frowned, and Nan Lichen said,

"Yes, my brother will definitely bring my brother's gratitude to you."

Li'er and Hai Sa have left the palace for a while. At this time, are they going to Shufangzhai or returning to Zuoxiang's Mansion?

At this time, Mu Yueli was in Shufangzhai's room, tearing off the human skin mask on her face. Behind her stood Hai Sa. Since Hai Sa had discovered the clues, she had nothing to avoid, so she

Let him watch from behind.

"Huh, it's so hard to hide it from me!" Hai Sa said softly. When he thought about finding out that the second young master was Mu Yueli last night, he couldn't calm down. Last night, after he returned to the room

, I didn't fall asleep all night long. The figure of the second young master kept appearing in my mind, and then the figure of Mu Yueli appeared. Finally, the two figures overlapped.
