He was stunned for a moment, then chuckled, looked up at Beigong Tengxiao, and said: "Prince Beiming, this game is really exciting."
Beigong Tengxiao gently raised the corners of his lips and said: "I also meet my opponent in chess."
Chu Jiaoli frowned slightly, but she didn't understand who was winning?
Just as he was wondering, the guard from Nangong Tianyu walked up from the first floor, came to his side, and whispered: "Your Highness, Emperor Beiming has something important to discuss with you."
Nangong Tianyu frowned slightly, but then responded: "Yeah."
Chu Jiaoli immediately stood up and called towards the stairs: "Zilin, bring the boat to the shore."
"Yes, Princess."
After a while, the boat stopped at the shore.
Nangong Tianyu said to Chu Jiaoli and Beigong Tengxiao: "In that case, I will excuse you now."
Chu Jiaoli saluted him and said, "Your Highness, walk slowly."
Watching him land ashore from the window, Chu Jiaoli sighed softly and said: "Your Highness, I should have made it very clear last time that I will not see you again. You also agreed to this. Your Highness has repeatedly regretted it.
It’s really out of character.”
Beigong Tengxiao hid a smile in his eyes and said: "I allowed you not to see me, but I didn't say I wouldn't see you."
Chu Jiaoli raised her eyebrows slightly and said, "So, what reason has His Highness thought of this time?"
Beigong Tengxiao raised the corners of his lips and said: "Now that Prince Nanyue's clothes are ready, he should be put in line for me, right?"
"Yeah." Chu Jiaoli responded softly.
"So, you should measure me properly."
Chu Jiaoli glanced at him and said, "I remember all your highness's measurements, so there is no need to waste time measuring them again."
After saying that, she turned and left.
"I can teach you how to play chess."
Hearing this, Chu Jiaoli, who was about to go downstairs, paused.
Beigong Tengxiao is also considered a first-class chess master. No matter how good the chess master is, he will never be able to match him.
She hesitated for a while, then pursed her lips, turned her head, and asked cautiously: "Are there any conditions?"
Beigong Tengxiao smiled like a spring breeze and said: "There are no conditions."
Hearing this, Chu Jiaoli frowned slightly.
She is not someone who is greedy for petty gains. No condition is the biggest condition.
She bit her lip and said, "Your Highness, you should make a condition."
Seeing her worries and precautions, Beigong Tengxiao was not annoyed. He slowly approached her, with a playful smile in his eyes, and said: "Okay, then you can embroider pear blossoms on my clothes."
Chu Jiaoli raised her eyebrows slightly and said, "Is that it?"
Beigong Tengxiao looked down at her, held her wrist, put her slender hand close to his heart, and said in a hoarse voice: "Here."
Her heart was beating vigorously, making her stunned. Her cheeks were stained with a faint blush. She immediately lowered her head and whispered: "Yes, it's okay..."
Beigong Tengxiao gently raised the corners of his lips and slowly let go of her wrist.
Chu Jiaoli quickly withdrew her hand and clenched her fists nervously in her sleeves.
Beigong Tengxiao turned around and walked to the chess table and sat down, trying to put the chess pieces on the chess board back into the chess box.
Chu Jiaoli frowned in panic and said, "Wait a minute."
Beigong Tengxiao paused his fingers slightly and raised his eyebrows in confusion: "What's the matter?"
Chu Jiaoli walked to sit opposite him, looked at the complicated chess game on the chessboard seriously, and said, "Who among you won just now?"
A hint of joking flashed in Beigong Tengxiao's eyes, and he joked: "Then who do you want to win?"
Chu Jiaoli choked for a moment, then curled her lips slightly and said, "Forget it, I don't care."
Beigong Tengxiao sighed helplessly and said: "It's a draw."
Hearing this, Chu Jiaoli suddenly became interested and stared at the chessboard seriously.
Beigong Tengxiao raised the corners of his lips and said: "I will teach you these things later. For now, let's learn the simple ones first."
"good."
Looking at her focused eyes, Beigong Tengxiao was slightly startled, and there seemed to be ripples in his heart.
In the past month, in addition to being busy with business, she was enjoying herself in the harem. In her spare time, she devoted herself to studying without sleep or food.
He knew early on that she was a girl who was willing to work hard and make progress, so he returned her freedom at the right time. Now that he thought about it, it was really an excellent decision.
After thinking about it, he gently raised the corners of his lips. She should be very happy now, right?
Two hours later.
It was getting late, and Zi Lin had quietly gone upstairs to light the lamp.
At this moment, the streets and houses by the lake are a dimly lit scene.
Chu Jiaoli gently closed her tired eyes, raised her hand and rubbed her eyebrows, and said: "Thank you for your generous teaching, Your Highness, Jiaoli has benefited a lot."
Beigong Tengxiao gently raised the corners of his lips and said: "You want to learn at any time, I can teach you at any time."
Chu Jiaoli sighed softly and said: "If Your Highness has free time, you might as well approve more memorials and get down to business. I have to leave." After saying this, she slowly stood up.
Bei Gong Tengxiao took her wrist, walked to a low table, held her on the table, held the edge of the table with both hands, and slowly came to her ear, and said in a slightly hoarse voice: "This is it.
Want to leave?"
Chu Jiaoli raised her feet in the air, looking at him getting closer and closer, and the familiar body fragrance hit her nose.
She sighed softly and said: "I knew that His Highness had agreed on a nominal reward, but now he wants to act rogue. It's really... hard to guard against it."
Beigong Tengxiao gently raised the corners of his lips and said, "You guessed it right."
As soon as he finished speaking, he leaned forward and pressed her lips against hers.
A trace of surprise flashed across Chu Jiaoli's eyes, she frowned and pushed him away, her cheeks stained with a faint blush, and said, "You don't have..."
Looking into his gloomy eyes, the word "lai" that Chu Jiaoli was about to say was silenced. She bit her lip and slowly turned her head away.
Thinking about it carefully, she had never had the courage to scold him.
After thinking about it, her feet in the air tensed up a little nervously. She frowned and said, "His Highness always goes back on his words like this, but he never takes his face into consideration."
Beigong Tengxiao twirled a strand of her black hair and sniffed it at the tip of his nose. What entered his nose was the refreshing fragrance. His slightly narrowed eyes were filled with a playful look: "Face? What is that? And
Compared with pears, they are not worth mentioning."
Chu Jiaoli lowered her head and whispered: "If Your Highness does this again, I will never play chess with you again."
"It doesn't matter, I have a trick up my sleeve." Beigong Tengxiao said bluntly, then raised his hand to lift her chin and kissed her again.
Three days later.
Nangong Tianyu went to a restaurant with Chu Jiaoli for lunch. Beigong Tengxiao, who was at the next table, insisted on sharing a table, saying: "What a coincidence, I was just passing by."
Five days later.
Nangong Tianyu came to Chu Jiaoli to watch the shooting match. Beigong Tengxiao, who followed closely, threatened again: "Passing by."
Two days later.
"Passing by."
Another day.
"Still passing by."
"Your Highness, you have passed by too many times, haven't you?"
"I can't help it. We are destined to meet each other thousands of miles away. Sometimes it just happens."
