Rebirth: The Gatekeeper

Naturally, these 40 soldiers and horses are still under the command of some veteran generals of the Duke of Qi, and they are all extremely loyal.Bei Tangjin once wanted to use these 40 troops, but she couldn't even persuade those veteran generals by various methods. Of course, she used very serious methods and did not resort to conspiracy. If she really used something else The method may also be feasible, but now that I think about it, why didn't His Majesty take back the 40 soldiers and horses?Is it just because of loving King Ming?

It's just that the old King Ming and the old Duke had a good relationship in the early years, so it's normal for Hua Jianyue and Feng Xitang to have a close relationship since they were young. But when you think about the forces behind these two people, it feels very strange and suspicious.But when I checked carefully, I couldn't find a trace of abnormality.So over time, it was forgotten.

but……

Bei Tangjin looked Hua Jianyue up and down, he must be too slender, she didn't realize that he was a man just now.Moreover, this face is not close to a man at all, perhaps because of some powder, the cheeks are as red as peach blossoms.

His eyebrows are slender, and the corners of his eyes are also slender. There is a faint tear mole under his eyes, which makes him look even more coquettish and charming, and he is naturally charming to all living beings.

Just a slight smile, squinting the eyes will give you a feeling of ecstasy, which makes you confused, and your heart is like a deer.

"It turned out to be the Duke of the State, and I offended you just now, please forgive me!" Bei Tang Jin bowed to Hua Jianyue, expressing that she was very guilty.

Hua Jianyue shook her head and said: "No need, you must treat me like a woman who sells a joke. Treating me like this is already in my expectation. I just hate it, and I hate it!" He glared at Feng Xitang, and said The words stuck in my throat, and said: "I hate myself, my skills are not as good as others, I lost!"

Bei Tangjin was very surprised, and said, "Could it be a horse hanging?"

Playing horse hanging is a gambling game in Daxia, and many nobles often use it as a pastime when they get together. Therefore, when Bei Tangjin thinks of winning or losing, he naturally thinks of playing horse hanging.

Hua Jianyue shook her head and said, "It's chess."

"Playing chess?" Bei Tangjin was a little surprised, but understood.

"This guy heard that you were going out today, so he bet on a game of chess. If anyone loses, he will pretend to be a woman and try his best to keep you! After all, I lost!" Hua Jianyue said angrily. When he said the last sentence, he lowered his head, as if to hide the emotion in his eyes.

Feng Xitang smiled lightly, and said: "He always looks like this, if he loses, he loses, and he still looks like he's been abused!" After he finished speaking, the smile on the corner of his mouth deepened, with a mocking look on his face , but that mocking face is still so elegant and graceful, which makes people both happy and hate!

"So it's like this..." Bei Tangjin sighed, the relationship between the two should be very good, otherwise they wouldn't be so unscrupulous, talking without scruples, betting is so interesting, they are actually dressed as women, what kind of brain came up with this ?

She looked at the sly smile remaining at the corner of Feng Xitang's mouth, and she understood that this guy must have done it on purpose!

"Does the Duke always win chess?" Bei Tangjin was really curious. If he always lost, why would he bet?

Hua Jianyue really laughed when he heard the words. When he smiled, it was like a hundred flowers blooming. All the enchanting beauty gathered on that beautiful face, making the red plum tree behind him pale in color!

"Not really, sometimes I lose, sometimes I win, he and I are on par!" Hua Jianyue said proudly, very proud to be on a par with Feng Xitang.

"Why, Yurong wants to play a game of chess with me?" Feng Xichen smiled very gracefully, like Qinglan drinking water.

Do you play chess?It's a good note, isn't it a shortcut to understand the opponent's mind and character by playing chess, but, chess should also have bets, right?Shouldn't it be letting her pretend to be a man to confuse women?

Thinking of the remaining slyness at the corner of Feng Xitang's mouth, Bei Tangjin couldn't help but think so.

"What? Yurong is afraid of losing? What does it matter if you win or lose? It's just for fun?" Feng Xichen smiled harmlessly.

Is it a pastime?Didn't he invite her to drink tea and play chess?But even if she will lose, she is willing to gamble, after all, this is a shortcut to get to know Feng Xitang.

"Since Your Highness is interested in elegance, then Yurong will give it a try. However, Yurong's chess skills are not good, so please be patient with Your Highness." Bei Tang Jin said lightly, with a very faint smile on his face.

"You guys play chess? That's good, Yurong, I bet you win! Let Yi Ning dance as a bet, how about he dance if you win?" Hua Jianyue looked very interested, and looked at Bei Tang Jin with bright eyes. , a touch of innocence, like a child who got the most fun toy.

There was a hint of anger in Feng Xitang's eyes, she glared at Hua Jianyue, and said, "Can you pretend to be dumb for the time being?"

It was the first time for Bei Tangjin to see Feng Xitang's angry appearance, but this person was so good at maintaining his own demeanor, even when he was angry, he was so elegant, completely like another painting style of a painter, extremely pleasing to the eye.

"Hmph! I'm not dumb, why should I pretend? We didn't bet on who would be dumb!" Hua Jianyue said confidently.

However, Feng Xitang laughed again. This time, Bei Tangjin clearly saw a scheming look in this person's eyes, and couldn't help thinking, what good method did this person think of to torture people?

"It's only interesting if there is a bet, Yurong, what do you think?"

Bei Tangjin wanted to shake her head. She didn't have a penchant for torturing people, but since she wanted to bet, she wouldn't be cowardly either.

"What do you want to bet, Your Highness?"

Feng Xitang bowed her head and thought for a moment: "Just bet if you win, I don't want Little Wood. If you lose, not only will Little Wood be given to me, but also dance for me. Of course, I will give it to you." Accompanied by Yurong."

"This bet is interesting, but Yurong doesn't know how to dance, so I'm afraid she won't be able to complete this bet." Bei Tangjin lowered her eyes and said.

Feng Xitang actually asked her to dance?How did she smell a conspiracy?Could it be that I really lost and danced today, and it will be spread throughout the city tomorrow, General Yurong danced for King Ming to have fun, it really is a woman who came out of the border, so slutty, she can seduce men, climb dragons and phoenixes!

"What, is Yurong afraid? I heard that Yurong has a photographic memory, and I know it immediately. Just now, Yurong watched An Chen dance. With Yurong's intelligence, she should have remembered it!" Feng Xi The smugness and slyness appeared on Tang's face again.

At this moment, Bei Tangjin finally understood. It turned out that the two people had been talking for a long time and they were actually singing a double reed to lure her into the game!Poor him, he thought Hua Jianyue was very innocent, but he didn't expect to fall into his trap without knowing it!

Feng Xitang should be sure that she will lose!That's why it took a lot of trouble, but it was just to humiliate her!

"In that case, let's give Yurong a try!" Bei Tangjin said flatly, her complexion getting colder and colder, as if she was covered with a thin layer of frost, and she was so cold, but at this time, she picked up the Teacup, head bowed, covered.

"Yu Rong is really a straightforward person! Please, Yu Rong!" He said, standing up, leading Bei Tang Jin into another room.

The furnishings in the room are simple, but each one is exquisite, luxurious, elegant and refined. It can be seen that Feng Xitang is an extremely tasteful and elegant person.

However, this person has another characteristic, that is, he pays great attention to enjoyment, but he can tell from the brightly glazed plum vase at the door that it is a masterpiece of Tang Yao in the previous dynasty, but Feng Xichen used it to insert red plum branches. What a waste!But this plum vase with red plums is extremely elegant.

"Please, Yurong." Seeing that Bei Tangjin's gaze was still wandering elsewhere, Feng Xitang pointed his arm at the chessboard by the window.

Bei Tangjin nodded, and followed Feng Xicheng to her seat.

"Will Yurong want to hold the black or the white?" Feng Xitang looked up at Bei Tangjin, only to see that the other side was staring at his chessboard, thoughtful, and there was a hint of suspicion on his beautiful face, but he didn't know if he was guessing What.

Zhi Hei Zi went first, so she was naturally going to Zhi Hei Zi.

"Heizi, Yurong's chess skills are not good, and I'm afraid I will lose badly." Bei Tangjin said in a low voice, but his eyes did not leave the chessboard in front of him.It's not because the chessboard is made of white jade, and there are gold wires pressed into it to form a horizontal and vertical chess grid. After the prince, the first prince learned that she loved playing chess, so he gave her the chessboard. She used this chessboard to play against Princess Wenchang for five years. She remembered every pattern of the chessboard, and she knew where the chessboard was. There are minor blemishes.

It was because of such familiarity that she was sure that this was the chessboard that the eldest prince gave her, but as to why this chessboard was in Feng Xitang's hands, she was not sure.It shouldn't be what the eldest prince and Feng Xitang wanted, right?And it seems that Feng Xitang likes playing chess so much, she should also cherish this chessboard very much, and will not give it to the eldest prince easily.

"At this point, why does Yurong lie to me?" Feng Xichen looked at Bei Tangjin with a sudden smile, his smile was still graceful and graceful, but there was a touch of seriousness and determination in his eyes.

Bei Tangjin was taken aback. Few people knew that she was good at chess. The reason was that she seldom played chess in the army. It wasn't that she didn't want to, but that the military was busy with affairs and she really didn't have time.

But how did Feng Xichen know?

The astonishment on Bei Tangjin's face was completely expected by Feng Xitang, but he would not tell her that when she played chess with old man Langxian that day, he listened to it in another room. Then, he also knew that this girl deliberately lost the game, and to please the old man, so that Lang Xian was willing to give her the little wood.

Bei Tangjin frowned in thought, raised her eyes to carefully observe the smile in the corners of Feng Xitang's eyes, and the faint slyness and complacency in the corners of her mouth, but she couldn't recall when she revealed her chess skills.

While she was thinking, a hand of white jade suddenly lifted up, and the other hand held the complicated and gorgeous sleeves of her sleeves, so as not to sweep the chess pieces on the chessboard. At the moment when Bei Tangjin lowered her eyes, there was a ray of quietness. When Lan Xiang entered the nose, it was extremely familiar.
