Chapter 117: Emotional

Jiang Shu's almond eyes were clear and bright, and she stared at Yu Zheng steadily, her heart surging.

Not to neglect small kindnesses, but to respect the virtuous and the virtuous, this is the benevolence that a king should have.

"Master, lunch is ready." Zhuiyun reported in a low voice.

The food was placed in the flower hall next to them, and they had to move over.

"Well." Yu Zheng stood up, looked at Jiang Shu with dark eyes and said, "Let's go."

Zhao Manying stood up on her own: "After we finish eating, let's think about whether we have missed anything."

Yu Zheng glanced at her and said in a slightly cold voice: "Go back to your own courtyard to eat, there is only enough for two people here."

Zhao Manying pretended not to understand, and said shamelessly: "It doesn't matter, I don't eat much."

"Zhuiyun." Yu Zheng was too lazy to talk to her anymore.

Zhuiyun responded and stretched out his hand, saying, "Miss Zhao, please."

Zhao Manying knew that if she didn't know her place, she would probably be thrown out by Zhuiyun.

"Stingy." Zhao Manying curled her lips and left unwillingly.

Before, she would definitely not dare to talk to Yu Zheng like this.

But after the last time she got along with Jiang Shu, she found that Yu Zheng was much gentler in front of Jiang Shu, and would not get angry and punish easily.

In addition, Yu Zheng's words today made Zhao Manying understand that Yu Zheng was wise and kind, and would not embarrass or punish the people at will.

Well, she is a serious citizen of Da Zhao.

After Zhao Manying left, Jiang Shu and Yu Zheng went to the flower hall next door to have dinner.

After seeing the full table of dishes, Jiang Shu raised his eyes and looked at Yu Zheng, puzzled.

There are so many dishes, not to mention three people, even seven or eight people would be enough.

Why didn't he let Zhao Manying eat together?

Deep black eyes met clear almond eyes. Yu Zheng saw what Jiang Shu was thinking, and said with a twinkle in his eyes: "Eat quickly, it will be cool soon."

If he didn't say it, Jiang Shu wouldn't ask. After all, she was just a guest, so there was no reason for her to question the host.

The rain today was very persistent, and it kept falling, with no intention of stopping.

Jiang Shu wanted to go back to the inn after dinner when the rain was light, but the rain seemed to have its own temper, saying that it was too heavy.

"Wow..." Jiang Shu frowned as she looked at the raindrops that looked like big and small beads falling on a jade plate.

"Come in and sit down. Your clothes will get wet if you stand outside all the time." Yu Zheng called her in the living room.

It was impossible to leave in such heavy rain, so Jiang Shu could only go inside and wait.

Seeing that she was fidgeting and looking outside frequently, as if she was in a hurry to leave, Yu Zheng asked her, "But is there anything urgent you need to do?"

Jiang Shu shook her head, "I'm just afraid of delaying the prince's business. If the prince has official business, please go and do it. Don't worry about me. I'll leave when the rain stops."

"All the things that need to be done have been done. There is nothing important. I can return to Shangjing in a few days."

At this point, Yu Zheng asked casually, "When are you going to return to Shangjing?"

Jiang Shu pointed to the rain outside the house and said, "I will return when the rain stops." When

she said the rain stopped, she meant that it would stop completely.

Yu Zheng understood, looked outside the house and said thoughtfully, "Look at the weather, it may rain for another two days. When the rain stops, we can return to Shangjing together." Return to Shangjing

together?

Jiang Shu's almond eyes moved slightly, a trace of joy exploded in her heart, her already beautiful eyes were radiant and surprisingly bright.

But suddenly, she thought of something, frowned slightly and said: "The prince will definitely take Zhao Renxian with him when he returns to Shangjing. Will it be inconvenient for us to go together?"

Yu Zheng pursed his lips and said: "No."

"You and I can talk to relieve boredom and help each other when encountering problems. It's great."

Hearing Yu Zheng say this, Jiang Shu no longer cared and nodded in agreement.

Seeing her nod in agreement, Yu Zheng's clenched fists slowly loosened, and his excited heart returned to calm.

"By the way, Prince, it rained all night last night. How did you capture Zhao Renxian?" Jiang Shu suddenly remembered this.

If she didn't kill her curiosity, she would not be able to sleep today.

Yu Zheng was startled, and suddenly said, "You came to me yesterday for this?"

"Yes." Jiang Shu admitted embarrassedly.

Yu Zheng sighed and slowly told the story of capturing Zhao Renxian the night before.

When Jiang Shu heard that Zhao Renxian attacked Yu Zheng, his heart tightened, and he interrupted Yu Zheng and asked, "Is the prince injured?"

Yu Zheng, who was telling the story, was stunned for a moment, and then realized that she was worried about him, and his heart warmed.

"No, Lord Zhou is the best martial artist in the palace. With him around, the idle people can't hurt me. Besides, I know martial arts, which is enough to protect myself."

Jiang Shu felt relieved after hearing this, but then blushed and said, "I was worrying about nothing."

She had seen Yu Zheng's martial arts before, but she didn't know why she forgot that he knew martial arts.

"I'm touched that you care about me." Yu Zheng's dark eyes were surging, and he stared at Jiang Shu seriously.

The emotions in those dark eyes were too hot, and Jiang Shu's almond eyes trembled, and she avoided them in panic.

Seeing her avoidance, Yu Zheng was a little disappointed, but he didn't force her, and continued to tell what happened that night.

Jiang Shu's mind was confused, absent-minded, and she didn't listen at all.

Yu Zheng's voice was calm and clear, like a mountain spring that soothes people's hearts. It was extremely comfortable and pleasant to listen to.

So in the end, Jiang Shu only remembered that Yu Zheng's voice was very nice.

After talking for a long time

, Yu Zheng felt a little dry in the mouth and picked up the teacup to drink tea. Jiang Shu raised his eyes and saw Yu Zheng's rolling Adam's apple at a glance.

The hill-like Adam's apple was very conspicuous. It slid up and down as Yu Zheng drank water, making people feel itchy and want to reach out and touch it.

After realizing what he was thinking, Jiang Shu's face, which had just calmed down, turned red again in an instant, and he quickly retracted his gaze to look at the rain outside the house. After

Yu Zheng finished drinking, he put down the teacup, glanced at the rain outside and asked, "Can you play chess?"

The rain was getting heavier, which was exactly what he wanted.

"I know a little bit." Jiang Shu didn't dare to be arrogant and answered very tactfully.

"Zhuiyun, bring me the chess pieces." Yu Zheng ordered.

Zhuiyun moved very quickly, and soon he brought the chessboard and placed it in front of the two of them.

The two of them each held a piece and began to play chess.

Because of what happened just now, Jiang Shu kept his head down and did not dare to look at Yu Zheng.

But she lowered her eyes, and her eyes fell on Yu Zheng's clean and slender hands.

The hand holding the black chess piece has clear joints and is as smooth as jade. It is so beautiful.

Jiang Shu couldn't help but be stunned and didn't move for a long time.

"It's your turn." Yu Zheng reminded warmly.

Jiang Shu suddenly came back to his senses, guiltily took a white stone, and placed it somewhere casually.

Yu Zheng frowned after looking at it: "Are you sure you want to play here?"

Hearing that his tone was wrong, Jiang Shu quickly took a closer look and found that he had made a stupid move that would lead to his own death.

"I made a mistake." Jiang Shu hurriedly picked up the chess piece and made a new move after careful consideration.

Yu Zheng looked at her flustered and red face and thought she was very cute. He couldn't help but look at her a few more times.

"Prince, it's your turn. . "Jiang Shu turned around and reminded him softly.

Yu Zheng's eyes trembled, and he forced himself to concentrate on observing the chess game.

In this game, both of them were distracted and made many mistakes. It was a clumsy game.

At the end of the game, Yu Zheng actually lost. , Jiang Shu almost had one piece left.

"Let's play again."

Yu Zheng was not unwilling to accept the defeat, on the contrary, he was very happy to lose.

Only in Lin'an Prefecture could he and Jiang Shu get along like this. When they returned to Shangjing, there were many rules and etiquette. It was difficult to even see each other.

Therefore, Yu Zheng especially cherished this hard-earned time and wanted to stay with Jiang Shu as much as possible.

If possible, he really hopes that the rain will last longer and heavier.

But no matter how hard the rain falls, it will eventually stop.
