Chapter 68: His Signal

When the three of them entered the hall, they saw the old man with silver hair leaning on a huge dark sandalwood chair, and she looked at the three people who saluted below with great excitement.

"I've seen the Queen Mother."

"See the Queen Mother."

"I've seen Grandma Huang."

As soon as they finished their courtesy, she hurriedly said, "Flat~"

Hui Shu was reminded by Bai Yi's words just now, and she relieved her daughter's nervousness, "Lingxi, the imperial grandmother misses you, go to the imperial grandmother's side." ”

The Queen Mother's voice was extremely kind, and he waved at Yan Le, "Xiao Lingxi, come to the imperial grandmother, the imperial grandmother wants to take a good look at you, you have suffered outside all these years." ”

The old man's tone gradually choked up, which made Yan Le a little overwhelmed, she could only let her hold her hand and hold it tightly to her heart. She comforted her in an unnatural tone: "Grandma Huang, don't be sad, I... Lingxi has not been bitter at all these years, and she has lived a good life, so good that she feels sorry for you people who are sad for me. ”

She was telling the truth, although her freedom was restricted, she did not suffer any harm, and the injuries and misfortunes that were going to happen later were all resolved by Ling Yi. Thinking of Mu Lingyi, Yan Le's nervousness finally eased a little.

"Silly boy, it's good that you don't suffer, it's all blessed by the ancestors, and every evil turns into good fortune." The Queen Mother breathed a sigh of relief and said gratefully.

Yan Le's tone relaxed, and the stiff smile on her face became natural, and she chuckled: "Grandma Huang is worried about it, and someone has guided her in the dark and found the door. She flattered the old man who cherished her so much.

"Queen Mother, don't be sad, you see that Prince Bai Yi has also come to see you, and he can play chess with you." Hui Shu was also full of emotion on the side, but she had a day's buffer time, she had calmed down a lot, and there were still people present, so she couldn't snub others.

The Empress Dowager was a chess addict when she was young, and her chess skills in qin, chess, calligraphy and painting were the most outstanding of her four talents, and it was precisely because of this outstanding chess skills that she was deeply appreciated by the emperor, and she was promoted all the way to become the mother of the country and the mother of the Son of Heaven today.

She happily asked the eunuch to bring a chair, gave Bai Yi a seat, and chatted with him: "Bai Yi, you said that you haven't come to play chess with me for a long time, and today Xiao Lingxi is here, I don't have time to play chess with you." The Queen Mother said very childishly, which made Yan Le chuckle.

"Grandma Huang, why does Ling Xi think that you are angry with Bai Yi?" The royal grandmother's simple appearance is really cute, which makes Yan Le unconsciously begin to get close to her.

"Xiao Lingxi, you can't dismantle your imperial grandmother's platform, otherwise the imperial grandmother will do, but you can ......" The queen mother said, pouting, she couldn't find anything to tease this good-looking little girl.

Yan Le is very familiar with current affairs, she smiled and comforted the Queen Mother: "Grandma Huang, Lingxi knows that she is wrong, Lingxi super wants to see you and Bai Yi learn from each other, Lingxi is dull, and she doesn't know chess." ”

Hye-sook listened quietly on the side, watching her daughter coax her elderly mother, and her heart was as sweet as honey.

The queen mother has not been playing chess with her for half a month, this itch was diluted by the return of the little granddaughter, but I didn't expect this little girl to hang on her lips again and again, so that her addiction to playing chess couldn't bear it anymore, she turned her head sideways to look at Bai Yi, and asked him: "Bai Yi, it seems that today our ancestors and grandchildren have to fight until dawn again." ”

Grandchildren. Yan Le tilted his head to look at Bai Yi, looking at the humble and polite smile on his face that he always had when he first saw him, it seemed that the relationship between the imperial grandmother and him was very close.

She looked at him and replied with a smile to the imperial grandmother's words: "Bai Yi should accompany him to the end, but Princess Lingxi and Princess Huishu are afraid that they will be bored." He finished looking at himself, waiting for his answer.

"No, I will learn some from you playing chess with the imperial grandmother, and if you are not free in the future, I can also accompany the imperial grandmother to play." After she finished speaking, she turned back to ask the queen mother, and her tone became a little coquettish: "Grandma Huang, do you say it's good?" ”

"Hui'er, look at it, our little Lingxi is still as considerate as when he was a child." She choked up as she spoke.

Yan Le hurriedly comforted her, "Grandma Huang, I will often come to accompany you in the future, don't be sad." ”

"Okay, okay, what you said, you can't break your word." She was so satisfied that she had the board ready.

The palace maid Xiaolu ran out very quickly and came back to say goodbye, the queen mother got up and beckoned everyone to the chess room at the back of the house, and Yan Le supported the queen mother, who was already a little slow to walk.

Yan Le really felt her grandmother's love for playing chess when she entered the chess room, the spacious room was made of light brown wooden boards, with a chessboard larger than the normal chessboard in the middle, surrounded by cushioned seats, mats in summer, and mink in winter. At the door, the maids knelt on the ground, took off their shoes, and invited them to the boxy chess table.

After taking her seat, the Queen Mother pretended to be deliberately serious and pointed at Yan Le and Hui Shu, and warned in advance: "You are a gentleman who is silent when watching chess, you two little girls, don't help me win Bai Yi." She couldn't hold back her laughter when she said it,

Yan Le guessed that Xu was Bai Yi who had never let her win, so she would say this, which was also in line with his temperament that was completely different from that of the officials who flattered the powerful, and he was trying his best to distinguish himself from those who climbed the power and the nobles in this deep palace, which was the image he desperately wanted to establish.

Bai Yi unexpectedly went to defend Yan Le, "Queen Mother, if Princess Lingxi is watching chess for the first time, it is inevitable to ask a few words out of curiosity." ”

"Oh, Bai Yi, you're trying to win over Xiao Lingxi to stand on your side, no, no, they all have to support me." The Queen Mother joked as she reached for the pieces in the chess box.

Yan Le saw her joke, put down her mustard heart, and joked with her: "No, Grandma Huang, if you support you, Bai Yi will be weaker than you in terms of momentum," she moved to Bai Yi's side, and continued: "My mother supports you, I support Bai Yi, this is fair." ”

"Sure enough, Bai Yi bought Xiao Lingxi, and this granddaughter's arm began to turn out." The Queen Mother looked at Yan Le joking with her and laughed even deeper, which was the joy that Liang Yining couldn't give no matter how much she coaxed.

Although Bai Yi's face was the same as before, his heart had already begun to ripple, this untrained little princess didn't pay any attention to how imaginative her behavior was, and the words used by the queen mother, who usually treated her in the name of her grandmother, were also extremely inappropriate.

Hui Shu coughed lightly, and her voice signaled the old mother to take care of the reputation of her little granddaughter, "Queen Mother, you are not surprised, she and Prince Bai Yi are just new acquaintances." ”

"Okay, okay, Hui'er's mother will win a handful today, let's start, Bai Yi." She holds the sunspot in her hand and gives priority to landing the first piece on the chessboard.

Bai Yi's movements were methodical, and he slowly landed the white piece in his hand in the chess grid a few steps away from the lonely black seed. He looked up with a light smile and signaled that the Queen Mother could continue, and then he took advantage of the time to take the chess to look sideways at Hui Yanle, she was fascinated, and it was clear that there were only two chess pieces on this chessboard that had not yet been linked.

Yan Le is figuring out Bai Yi's heart, even if she has never played chess, she also feels that the chess pieces and the chess pieces should follow closely, so that it is easier to change the strategy that has been formulated, so that it is convenient to deal with the opponent and eat the opponent's chess pieces.

She was the only one present who had martial arts, and she quickly heard someone approaching here, out of the instinct of being trained, she raised her head vigilantly, and suddenly crashed into Bai Yi's strange eyes.

She was a little overwhelmed, so she could only smile faintly at him to alleviate the inexplicable embarrassment between the two.

This scene was extremely ambiguous in the eyes of Liang Yining, who had just appeared, and she couldn't understand why this cousin who had just come back had such a strong attraction, first Mu Ling, who was as cold as frost and rejected people for thousands of miles, and then Cousin Ting Mo, who was very grinning and had no delicate feelings, and now this profound proton with a reputation for escapism in this palace, the three of them were extremely accommodating to her and wanted to get close to her.

Liang Yining withdrew her surprised gaze at Yan Le and Bai Yi, regained her gentle and lovely smile, and stepped forward to salute with her extremely standard court etiquette: "Yining has seen the imperial grandmother and aunt. ”

Yan Le sighed again in her heart for her extremely nice voice, why didn't Tie Dan like this beautiful and polite cousin. Today, her clothes are quite similar to herself, and the same open V-neckline sets off her slender neckline very beautifully, unlike the long strand of hair she left in front of her to cover it, her hair is draped behind her, so that her beautiful bones are exposed.

Yan Le watched her sit beside him under the greeting of the Queen Mother, chuckled and looked at Bai Yi after greeting him.

Liang Yining was puzzled, why did this cousin always stare at herself, she restrained her incomprehension, and her face was still a generous and gentle smile that she had specially practiced, "Hello cousin." ”

"Pretty cousin, good." Yan Le raised his little hand and waved with her, looking at her sideways with great joy.

Bai Yi also didn't understand Yan Le's sudden joyful mood, but she quickly deduced from the adoring gaze she had stared at her before that because she had been imprisoned by Su Qiyan since she was a child, she was extremely curious about the outside world, and the same was true for people. He asked Yan Le with a low smile: "Princess Lingxi, why are you staring at Princess Yining?" ”

Yan Le was not shy, she smiled at Liang Yiningnunu, and said stupidly: "Because my cousin is really beautiful and has a good voice." ”

The queen mother was amused by Yan Le's innocent appearance, and Hui Shu also laughed at Yan Le's straightforward praise and reminded her: "Lingxi, don't look at your cousin awkward for a long time, and don't dare to go to our house after being shy." ”

"Princess Lingxi," Bai Yi called her again, seeing that she had already looked back at herself, and continued: "If the princess likes to look at people with beautiful eyes, it is the same if she has time to look in the mirror. ”

Yan Le was praised by him in a hidden way, she was inexplicably proud in her heart, her smile didn't feel deeper, she stared at Bai Yi's eyes, shook her head and said: "Bai Yi, it turns out that you can also praise people, what you said makes me embarrassed." ”

Bai Yi's eyes were filled with her extremely bright smile, and there was a hint of pampering in his eyes that he didn't have time to hide, "The princess can afford to be praised in this world." ”

Yan Le smiled and lowered her head, it was the first time she had been praised so much, it made her embarrassed, and she had to talk to Ling Yi when she went back, her beauty could match his flower name.

Liang Yining was extremely shocked by the scene in front of him, the cousin Lingxi, who was holding hands with Mu Commander Qingqing and me yesterday, captured the heart of the escapist proton in less than an hour today, what kind of clever means is this, Liang Yining unconsciously began to pay attention to Yan Le's every move.

With the increase in the number of chess pieces, Yan Le became more and more unable to understand the chess game, but what she could see clearly was that the mother on the other side had begun to be anxious for the imperial grandmother, and she had the urge to correct the imperial grandmother for playing the wrong chess pieces, but it was her cousin, who was gentle in the past and quietly watched the chess.

Yan Le looked up at Bai Yi, who was very relaxed, and shook her head helplessly, it seemed that the outcome of the chess game had been decided, she looked down at Bai Yi who put away the imperial grandmother's sunspots that were surrounded by white children one by one and put them into the chess box.

"Do you understand?" Bai Yi's tepid voice carried a slightly inquiring tone.

"Huh? I really don't understand. Yan Le had no choice but to use his hand to support his already sore head, but suddenly seemed to think of something and quickly put it down.
