Chapter 37 I Can't Help My Child

She turned against the general.

die of old age?died of illness?
In her eyes, is he this old?
He circled his upper teeth with the tip of his tongue, extremely displeased, the next moment his eyes seemed to kill Meng Qing.

Meng Qing shrank her neck, "Of course, even so, Qingqing will invite the best famous doctor in the world to treat Tai Tuo, and keep Tai Tuo for you to live a long life, and strive to be a veteran of the three dynasties!"

It gets darker and darker...

Turn the corner and say that he is old and immortal!
Xiao Yan didn't want to argue with her, so he flung his sleeves and left indifferently, followed closely by Su Zhou.

There was a tinge of anger in the tall and straight figure of vermilion, Meng Qing was at a loss, and didn't know why he turned and left without saying a word.

Is it possible...

She thought for a moment before she suddenly realized!
What she said just now seemed to poke Xiao Yan's heart, revealing the truth about his age, which made her very angry.

Sure enough, people are always dissatisfied with old age!

Hey!
old man!
……

The next day.

This was the first time Meng Qing left the palace with a token, she was blatant, not to mention how excited she was.

The main reason for going out of the palace today is for Zheng Guogong.

In the carriage, Yunhe looked at the red sandalwood chess board painted on wood, the chessboard was exquisitely dyed, the lines were clear, and the eyes were ingenious. It was indeed a first-class chessboard.

"Your Highness, do you really intend to give this chessboard to Zheng Guogong..."

This is the most valuable item left by Empress Yue to Meng Qing. She is really reluctant to give it to outsiders like this...

Meng Qing propped herself on the table, resting her cheeks with her palms, "Why does this princess think that you are more reluctant than me?"

Yun He sighed.

"This is a treasure, His Highness is willing to give it up, but the servant feels that it is not necessary to use this to please Zheng Guogong, only His Highness promises a lot of money."

Meng Qing shook her head and denied: "Duke Zheng is now the Duke of the State. He has both power and money. For him, this is no longer a temptation. In recent years, he has been obsessed with chess and loves collecting chessboards. Looking at the treasures in the world, this is the only thing that can shake him."

"But……"

"Don't be so, I don't want the child to be tied to the wolf. When the princess succeeds in the future, do you want anything good? What's missing is this chessboard that eats ashes?"

"Your Highness said yes."

In less than half an hour, the BMW car parked in front of Zheng Guogong's mansion.

Meng Qing got out of the carriage with Yunhe, and because the carriage looked luxurious and expensive, the steward of the Duke's Mansion took the initiative to greet him.

The steward bowed and asked, "Dare to ask Miss?"

Yun He smiled, "Is the Duke here?"

"Uh... yes."

"My little Empress has something to ask Duke Zheng to see."

The steward opened his mouth wide.

Little, little Empress Dowager.

He hastily made up a gift, "The villain has eyes but doesn't know Mount Tai, and doesn't know the true face of the little Diji, and I still hope that the little Diji will make amends."

Meng Qing tidied up the messy skirt, lowered her head and didn't care much, "It doesn't matter."

The steward gestured to the little attendant beside him, and the attendant understood immediately, and hurriedly reported to the mansion.

The steward smiled and said: "The Duke is currently entertaining guests in the study, please follow me, Your Highness."

After finishing speaking, he walked ahead and led the way, leading the two into the gate of the Duke's mansion.

Zheng Guogong was a veteran of the two dynasties. When he was young, he was both civil and military. He was good at leading troops and fighting.

But in order to avoid suspicion, he only stayed in the mansion on weekdays and devoted himself to studying chess.

The Duke's Mansion is a large mansion with five entrances and five exits. Except for the front hall of the mansion, there are garden trees, attic pavilions and pavilions, which are extremely luxurious.

The steward led the two of them to the door of the study, and he was the first to lightly knock on the carved wooden door.

"My lord, His Royal Highness Di Ji has arrived."

There is no answer.

In just the time of a cup of tea, the water chestnut door was pushed open with a "squeak" and a figure in a purple robe stepped across the threshold and appeared in front of several people.

Meng Qing was taken aback for a moment.

When she saw the person's true face again, her milky chestnut pupils shrank suddenly.

"Uncle?"

King Jin turned his head and was taken aback for a moment, and then those eagle eyes became mysterious.

He looked at Meng Qing and said, "Why did the little princess come to Zheng Guogong's mansion?"

Sure enough, he was a compatriot with the same mother as Emperor Chu, and his face was very similar to that of Meng Qing's father.

She was so nervous that her throat rolled up and down, "I... Qingqing came here specially to ask Zheng Guogong about chess skills."

"Chess? Uncle Huang remembers that you don't seem to like playing chess!"

King Jin was dubious, with an extremely rich expression, as if he had already seen through Meng Qing's little girl.

"It's a sudden interest recently. If the emperor doesn't believe it, let's listen together."

"..."

The King of Jin knew that Zheng Guogong loved to play chess, if he stayed here and listened, he could talk for hours.

He still had something important to do later, so he couldn't delay too much, so he showed a kind smile, which made Meng Qing's hair stand on end.

"No need, this king has important matters to attend to, so it is inconvenient to stay here for a long time, please leave!"

"Congratulations to the emperor."

Meng Qing blessed Fuli and watched him leave quickly.

The steward said respectfully: "Your Highness, the Duke is waiting for you inside."

"it is good."

Meng Qing entered through the door, looked around, the furnishings were extremely elegant, the emerald green screen was like overlapping mountains, and the fragrance in the room was faint.

Zheng Guogong knelt on the felt, his temples were slightly white, and he was dressed in black clothes and ordinary clothes, just like an idle layman returning to the mountains and forests.

Holding black chess in his hand, he didn't even turn his head to know Meng Qing's arrival.

"What kind of wind is it today that brought King Jin and Little Diji here?"

Meng Qing stepped forward to bless Fuli.

"Uncle Zheng."

She looked at him carefully, her eyebrows and eyes were a little vicissitudes, but she did not lose her elegance, especially this chessboard, although it was simple and elegant, she could tell that it was a chessboard made of high-grade golden nanmu.

"sit."

He pointed across.

Meng Qing is also not formal, and sits with the case.

She observed the chess pieces on the chessboard, the black chess opened and closed wide and aggressive, as if it had the potential to swallow mountains and rivers; while the white chess was cautious and cautious at every step, it seemed that it was overwhelmed by the black chess, but after careful consideration, the black chess had already lost the wind.

Zheng Guogong looked up at her, "Do you understand?"

If it were someone else, they might have to put on a cross and say that they understand, so they can distinguish between these situations.

But she didn't say that, and replied honestly: "Uncle Zheng flattered me, I'm so stupid, I really can't figure out the ingenuity of this chessboard."

Zheng Guogong suddenly laughed loudly, "I thought His Highness would play tricks in front of him, but I didn't expect His Highness to be so sincere, it really caught my eyes."

What a joke!
Zheng Guogong is especially good at chess, if she wanted to play in front of him, it would be 800 years too early!

She absolutely dare not pretend to be mean in front of this old fox.

She got down to business.

"I came today because I was puzzled by something. I wonder if Uncle Zheng can answer it for me?"
