Legitimate Daughter, Precious Phoenix - C285 Chess testing
The journey from the Sage Storage Palace to the Phoenix’s Xiang Palace was a long one. Even if she managed to get here by luck, she wouldn’t be able to enter the Phoenix’s lair. Otherwise, how could he be so calm?
The Queen’s heart was in turmoil as she listened. She had always kept her anger to herself, but her expression was still as calm as before.
“Aunt, is there anyone in the Army of Gods whom Song Qingyu knows?”
Su Shining could only think of this point, but he couldn’t think of anyone who helped Song Qingyu, “Actually, I also checked that day, and the one on duty is Sir Li. That was even more strange. Lord Li was on patrol. Where would anyone be able to slip away from his sight? Aunt, I feel that Song Qingyu is not simple. ”
How terrifying it was to be able to enter and leave the Phoenix Nest freely while Li Yi was on patrol.
First, Song Qingyu had to be extremely skilled, and Song Qingyu knew some of the people in the second god’s advice camp.
However, Song Qingyu had just returned to Yu City. He was just a country girl, he shouldn’t have had such abilities.
As Susining spoke, he saw that the empress was silent so he continued, “Aunt, something has happened to Yang Caijiu recently, she poisoned Senior Qian Hu who was by Lord Li’s side. The pastries were originally prepared for Song Qingyu. Could it be that Song Qingyu wanted to use this opportunity to get rid of Master Chen? Aunt, you must investigate this matter clearly. Sir Li has always been loyal and devoted. Song Qingyu was in such a hurry to get rid of the people around him, so he must have some ulterior motive. ”
The empress frowned. Doubt rose in his heart. Still, he reprimanded Susenin.
“Alright, you’re not focusing on embroidery, why are you investigating these things all day? Is that what you should be doing? You should change your prejudice towards Song Qingyu. You are not allowed to bring up these matters again. ”
Su Shining reminded her with good intentions, and the empress scolded him directly.
Su Sining sat on the bench, feeling wronged. “It’s clear that Song Qingyu has a lot of doubts. If the empress doesn’t investigate this clearly, then Song Qingyu will be free to come and go as he pleases.” Furthermore, who knows if Song Qingyu is a spy sent by Consort Chen. ”
The empress’s face sank. “I have my own plans for this.”
This was the first time the empress had been so angry with Susining.
Susning realized that she had spoken too much. Although she had always grown up by the empress’s side, Susning was still a little afraid of the empress. The empress lowered her voice … Su Shining immediately pursed his lips, not daring to say another word.
Aunt Rong pushed aside the curtain and walked in, looking very respectful as she said, “To reply esteemed empress, the Song Division has arrived.”
The empress raised her hand. She first gave Susining a warning look, then nodded. “Please come in.”
Aunt Rong stepped back again and lifted the curtain.
Song Qingyu saw Aunt Rong nod at him in acknowledgement. Song Qingyu turned to look at the sky outside, replacing the setting sun. At this moment, there was a crescent moon in the sky.
Song Qingyu looked towards the direction that they came from and quickly returned to his senses and walked in.
Song Qing Yu looked up and saw the Queen and Su Si Ning. Su Si Ning looked at Song Qing Yu unhappily and quickly calmed down. He then stood up and stood to the side.
When the empress saw Susining’s expression from the corner of her eyes, she was much more satisfied.
Song Qingyu walked in and bowed. “Greetings, esteemed empress.”
The empress raised her hand and nodded. “Come here.”
Song Qing Yu looked at the seat indicated by the empress and subconsciously glanced at Su Si Ning from the corner of his eyes. Susannin didn’t say anything, as if he was just a stranger.
Song Qingyu walked up without stopping and sat down. He saw that it was still the same game he had played last night.
It was still normal. Just like last night, Song Qingyu and the Empress played a few games of chess.
Thus, Su Si Ning found an opportunity to have a few rounds with Song Qing and Yu.
The empress wanted to be of the younger generation as well. She also wanted to see Susning’s current chess skills. Ever since Susenin had grown up, he had been cautious, as had he been when he played chess with her. Keep it all, so the queen can’t enjoy it. However, Song Qingyu was different. She was serious.
Aunt Rong moved a new tea table to play chess for Song Qingyu and Susining. The empress sat in her seat, drinking tea and dealing with the affairs of the imperial harem while keeping an eye on the two.
Song Qingyu was not a good chess player, so she only won four rounds.
Jing Yan kept the chess pieces again.
“Did you let me win the first few rounds of the Song Division’s doctors?” Su Si Ning smiled sweetly. There was a trace of indistinct provocation in her eyes. The others seemed to take her as a joke.
Susenin, who had always been the most decent and well-behaved, disdained to be jealous.
Everyone thought so.
Song Qingyu pursed his lips and put all of the black stones into the chessboard, “When I was in the countryside, I had never played chess before. Naturally, compared to Miss Su, my chess skills are far from enough. “It was lucky that the empress had taught me a few rounds last night before I managed to beat Miss Su. After that, I won’t have that kind of luck anymore.”
Su Si Ning’s eyes were curved and he seriously looked at Song Qingyu. He smiled and acted like he was acting dignified. He pursed his lips and did not say anything.
She felt that Song Qingyu had never played chess before and could not grasp the chessmen’s origins to the greatest extent. But when she had first seen her playing chess with the empress, she had actually seen the path of the king in it. But when he played chess, that feeling was gone.
Susining was sure that even though Song Qingyu was no match for the empress in chess, he was not an ordinary opponent that could play chess with her. She must have been taught to play chess.
He took back his chess piece.
Su Sining held onto Bai Zi for a brief moment and soon laid down a net for Song Qing and Yu. He looked at the expression on Song Qingyu.
Song Qingyu’s gaze was always on the chess board, so he didn’t feel Su Shining’s gaze on him.
Very quickly, it landed.
Su Sining’s gaze changed slightly. Seeing that Song Qing and Yu had taken this step, his entire gaze fell on Hei Zi.
Susining was surprised, but he did not show it. Just as he was about to raise his hand, he fell over.
A palace maid hurried in. “To reply esteemed empress, the palace’s water storage has gone astray.”
The empress’s eyes widened as she put down the book in her hands. “What’s the situation like?”
“To reply esteemed empress, a wind blew just now, and the fire grew even longer. Originally, they had only burned a portion of the Hall of Storage. However, who would’ve thought that the wind would blow again, causing the fire to become even more uncontrollable. Yue Cai had too much to drink at night. When the fire started, it didn’t escape. The others were more or less injured. The chief physician of the Hua Ze Palace has gone to help out. ”
“Transfer all the manpower in the surrounding area and open up the reservoir.” We must put out the fire in the Palace. ”
The palace maid acknowledged and quickly left.
When the Queen heard this, her gaze turned a lot slower, and finally landed on Song Qingyu.
When Song Qingyu and Su Sining heard the news, they had already stood aside.
“Doctor Song, please go back and help.”
Song Qingyu understood and nodded his head. At the same time, Blessed Body bowed and said, “This humble girl will take her leave.”
Su Shining was not satisfied with these words and anxiously looked at the chessboard. She wasn’t done yet, and she hadn’t completely discovered Song Qingyu. She looked unwillingly at the empress, but met the empress’s warning gaze. Su Sining could only shut his mouth.
