Taking off her own cloak and covering Jiang Yue, who was sleeping in a soft chair under the shade of a tree, Nalan Xue sighed softly and sat down on the small stool next to the soft chair.

It is said that a general's achievements can lead to thousands of bones being withered. Without her plan, Surabaya would not have been destroyed. It can be said that she is not a military general, and the blood on her hands is no less than those of those who are galloping in battle...

... Facing Jiang Yue, the former prince of Surabaya, a smart man who could guess her riddles, his mood was quite complicated... If she hadn't used a trick to divide Surabaya, in the future, this man would...

He should be a wise king...

"Long time no see. How are you, Princess?"

As if awakened by Nalan Xue's sigh, Jiang Yue slowly opened his eyes, but did not stand up. He only smiled and said hello to her like an acquaintance.

Jiang Yue's attitude made Nalan Xue a little confused. Since the Sishui Kingdom was divided, this guy has been under house arrest in the Proton (Harmony) Palace and is not allowed to go out. This "Long time no see, I'm fine", and

Where did it come from?

"In the past, when Gu held the seal to surrender, it was the princess who took it with her own hands. How could it be that, after only twelve years, she thought she would not be responsible for Gu?"

As if he had sensed Nalan Xue's thoughts, Jiang Yue mentioned this with a slight smile. When talking about the past, he did not feel any resentment or excitement at all, as if what he said had nothing to do with him.

Losing and gaining is not his country, and losing is not his country. "Gu Ke clearly remembers that the princess said at that time that she would ensure that Gu Gu's life is safe, that he has adequate food and clothing, and that he can enjoy his old age in Mo Country.

"

"Twelve years ago, the person who accepted Your Highness's surrender was Nalan Shu, the elder brother born to Nalan Xue's compatriots, not Nalan Xue. Your Highness recognized the wrong person."

Hearing what Jiang Yue said, Nalan Xue was slightly relieved. She looked very similar to Nalan Shu, so it was normal for her to be "misidentified", although it was indeed her who went to Surabaya to surrender.

That's true, but he went in the name of Nalan Shu.

"Nalan Shu has practiced martial arts since he was a child. When he was eight years old, he was already a junior general in the Moguo City Guards. How can the skin on his hands be compared with that of a princess?"

As Jiang Yue spoke, he sat up on the soft chair with a smile. Although he didn't say it directly, it was enough. Both of them are smart people. Some words are good if they are understood. But if you say them, it will be ugly, "Follow me."

The princess concealed those outsiders in order to protect the reputation of the Nalan family. Isn't it unnecessary to be an 'insider' like He Gu?"

Knowing that Jiang Yue was just joking with him and not taking it seriously, Nalan Xue didn't get angry with him. She just smiled, reached out from the stool and picked up the food box she brought from Nalan's mansion, and stuffed it into his hand.

, "I don't recognize Your Highness as my 'wife', so I asked someone to give me a betrothal gift, but I only gave half of it. I'm afraid there is no one in this world who is less sincere than Your Highness!"

"If I had freedom, I don't know, I could really get the other half's betrothal gift and propose marriage to your family, but it's a pity... you can't make do and let the orphan pay half of the gift on credit first?"

Jiang Yue was not polite at all. He took the food box, opened the lid, and started to grab the snacks inside. While teasing Nalan Xue with a smirk, he stuffed it into his mouth, "My wife, the princess is too much."

It’s so unkind, I can’t afford the betrothal gift from my other half, it’s all your fault, okay?”

"Your Highness, please don't tell me that I have never seen anyone gambling before! If you buy it, you will leave it. If you buy it, you will leave it. If Your Highness doesn't buy it, how can you let my two brothers leave it?"

Looking at Jiang Yue's cynical look, Nalan Xue just kept laughing. Twelve years of life as a pledge really made Jiang Yue, the arrogant prince in the past, change a lot. His original sharpness had completely faded away.

, he is now a piece of finely carved cinnabar, which looks safe and harmless, but in fact, is extremely dangerous.

Only such a person is qualified to cooperate with her, Nalan Xue, or become her enemy.

"Given your current status and situation, even if Gu really buys you, your two brothers will not let you go. So why bother asking for trouble on your own?"

Jiang Yue continued to eat snacks with his head lowered, with a greedy look. It is not an exaggeration to say that he could compete with Nalan Xue You, "If not, the princess will think of a way to release the orphan, and wait for the orphan to leave."

After that, try to make some money, buy some family property, and then propose marriage to your two brothers?"

"Sex embryo!"

Nalan Xue pretended to be angry and spat at Jiang Yue, then couldn't help but laugh again, "It's really a waste of your good brain!"

"Is my brain good or not? To what extent it is good, but where will the points be used? I can't even think about how to stabilize the country and govern the country. But if I want to make the princess happy,

Even a hundred others combined can't compare to me!"

Jiang Yue took another bite of snacks, as if he suddenly remembered that he was eating alone. He forgot to show mercy to Nalan Xue, and hurriedly stuffed the half piece in his hand into his mouth, took the box and gave it to her.

In front of me, "You want some, too? Just watching me eat will make you hungry, right?"

Facing an unattractive person like Jiang Yue, no one could raise his temper. Nalan Xue sighed softly, stretched out her hand, picked up a piece of snack from the box, brought it to her mouth, and bit it.

He took a small sip and said nothing, just waiting to see what he would do next.

After half-full of snacks, when he saw Nalan Xue just sitting quietly on the small stool and looking at him without saying a word, Jiang Yue also smiled, closed the lid of the food box, squinted his eyes, and looked at her, "I want to

Ask me how I guessed your riddle, or do I really want to propose marriage to your family?"

"The last one is your freedom. I just want to know how you guessed the riddle I created."

During the confrontation between the two parties, one party had already spoken first, which meant that she had given in. Nalan Xue was not an unreasonable person, especially for Jiang Yue, who felt a little guilty in her heart, so she was much more tolerant.

Seeing that Nalan Xue was serious, Jiang Yue also stopped smiling, got up from the soft couch, got off the ground, patted the biscuit crumbs on his body, and told her his thoughts when solving the puzzle.

There are green mountains on the mountain, which means "out", and the white mountains are surrounded by thousands of greens, which means that when viewed from a distance, the mountain should be white and green, with more white than green, and the white is outside, in other words

, it should be that the mountain is made of stone, and its outer edge collapsed due to some external force. This means that this is the place where the product will appear.

There is xuanshui in the water, which means that the object itself is water-like, but insoluble in water. Moreover, it is black. Water-like things that are insoluble in water can only be oil. Black oil is nothing more than two kinds, animals.

The corpse oil that rots after death, or the copper oil that can be used to light a lamp. The following sentence, "black water holds a thousand reds" means that this thing can be ignited, and what is emitted is red fire. Corpse oil

If it burns, it will emit yellow or blue fire light. When copper oil burns, it will emit red light. This is completely consistent with the puzzle.

Needless to say, the answer to the first puzzle is undoubtedly this copper oil.

There are strange rocks among the rocks, which is the word "rock". Feng Shui creates things. The landscapes created by the wind are often steep and strange. The things created by the water are mostly round and soft. In the last sentence, the strange rocks pile up and the peaks are produced.

The place where this thing is located is a place with many strange rocks and dangerous mountains. From this, it can be concluded that the environment where this thing was born has more wind and less water. It should be in the country of Mo, the country of wind, or the country of Shang.

There is white soil under the soil. It means that the object itself is earthy and white. It cannot be mixed with the soil. It is only possible that it is a mineral. When the blue soil meets water, it becomes clear. It means that the object will change color and dissolve when it encounters water. It can be

There are very few minerals melted by water. They were originally gray-white. They were born in places with more wind and less water. The only ones that can be buried under the soil are soil saltpeter.

The answer to the second puzzle is, without a doubt, soil saltpeter.

There is a red moon under the moon. The red one, in terms of orientation, is due south. The nine-li fire in the south is the phase of the red bird. The red bird is an auspicious beast. In terms of the divine position, it is only lower than the phoenix. It has been replaced by a human identity. The phoenix

The person who is the queen, Suzaku, is the princess or the princess. The moon under the moon means that the person's status is slightly lower than the princess, so naturally he is the princess.

When Ziyue heard the sound of Zi, it was referring to the chessboard of Go. The first "zi" was referring to Zi hour, which is the beginning of a day. One day can also be said to be a day. The beginning of all things can also be called the beginning of all things.

"Yuan" is connected with the word "Yuan", which means "Tian Yuan". It refers to the middle point among the nine stars on the Go board, and the second "zi" refers to the point on the chess board.

The remaining eight "star positions", together with "Tian Yuan", refer to the chess game.

There is a fantasy city on the city. "Huan" refers to an extremely difficult way of moving chess in Go. When two parties play chess, it is equivalent to each holding a city and fighting. It refers to playing chess.

Besieging a city means everything is in vain. It refers to victory or defeat. If one party loses, no matter how much it loses, it is a loss. If it loses, everything becomes in vain and there is no possibility of turning around.

Therefore, the third puzzle is the most difficult of the three puzzles. The person who hired me not only wanted to send things to Nalan Xue, but also played chess with her and beat her.

The betrothal gift has been completely given. In the final analysis, the final decision-making power on whether to marry or not is still in Nalanxue's own hands. It has nothing to do with whether these three mysteries are solved or not!

"With your foresight and foresight, you are not someone who is greedy for the small profits in front of you. Back then, why didn't you dissuade your father from doing that greedy thing and squandering the Sishui River?"

Listening quietly to Jiang Yue's analysis of what he was thinking, Nalan Xue couldn't help but sigh. What a smart guy, he was exactly what she thought! However, she was a little confused. With such a smart person like him,

He is older than me, so why didn't he give up and give himself a fight back then and surrender with the jade seal in his hand? This is so unreasonable!

"It's getting late. Princess, it's time for you to go back to your mansion. Otherwise, if others find out, it's time to spread gossip about you."

Jiang Yue did not answer the question raised by Nalan Xue. He just smiled, took out all the food in the food box, and returned the empty food box to her hand, "Tomorrow, I want to eat the food from the west side of Zhaoyang City."

, the Bazhen shrimp dumplings from Fengnianlou on Sanqing Street, when you come here, remember to bring them to me. I need to eat three dumplings to be full. Well, more is fine, I can use it for dinner.

."

Nalan Xue didn't realize that Jiang Yue no longer called himself "Gu", and she herself no longer called him "His Royal Highness".

The wheel of the world seems to have slowly opened.
Chapter completed!
