Chapter 29 I heard you are a useless person
Is this the kind of chess that a idiot can play?
His style of playing chess is to plan carefully before acting and to hit the target with one strike.
There are back-up plans at every position on the chessboard, either luring the enemy deep into your territory or catching them in a trap, but one thing is certain: your rear must be impenetrable.
Bai Qinghuan is an offensive type. He attacks recklessly and destroys his layout step by step.
She can always guess what he is thinking and think ten steps ahead.
There was no one in Dongxi Kingdom who could fight him on equal terms before, but there is one now.
Her chess skills are as amazing as her handwriting.
However, why would such a man with great ambitions follow after the Third Prince?
There is nothing in the third prince's brain. If it weren't for his status as a prince, he would be a mediocre person, useless.
I always feel like something is wrong and I can’t figure it out!
When Bai Qinghuan heard the words "idiot and waste", the corners of his mouth twitched. This person was such a bummer.
That's not me!
Can you say it?
Obviously not!
"I am truly illiterate and cannot even write a poem."
She made another move, deliberately showing a flaw, and lost five moves: "Alas, I lost. Your Highness is a great chess player, and I am ashamed of myself."
The Regent's eyelids twitched. Could you please not be so fake?
"Draw."
He didn't need her to deliberately give in.
When he was young, others always lost to him by using roundabout ways when playing chess with him.
She was too deliberate, and her funny expression made people laugh.
"Use your full strength next time."
Bai Qinghuan grinned: There will be a next time?
That's just... awesome.
Does that mean she can come in next time?
It’s a great opportunity!
"Yes, I will obey you."
In her previous life, she was bored at home and all she did was read books and play chess by herself. Her father collected a lot of chess manuals for her, so her chess skills were naturally quite good.
He stood up and took out a bag of fish food from his sleeve like a magic trick.
"It's getting late, I should go back now."
"Your Highness, this fish is very small. One grain of fish food a day will do. I will give it to Eunuch Xishun later."
Bai Qinghuan achieved his goal and prepared to leave. It would be curfew if it was too late.
Before leaving, she looked back and smiled: "Your Majesty, remember to have your meal."
Then she stepped over the threshold, and Xishun personally escorted her to the back door. On the way, Bai Qinghuan whispered to her the precautions of raising fish.
Xishun agreed repeatedly and promised to take good care of the fish.
Miss Bai is so exquisite, no wonder the prince likes her so much.
Back in the study, the regent's cold gaze materialized.
"Bring it here."
Xishun was stunned and asked blankly, "What did the prince say?"
"Fish food."
"Your Majesty wants to feed it yourself?"
He tactfully served the fish food, arranged the meal, and left with a smirk.
The prince's possessiveness is too strong.
He was not allowed to eat the food Miss Bai gave him, nor was he allowed to take the fish food, tsk tsk...
The Regent looked at the meal today which was obviously different from the past. It was all red and tasted just right.
Is it because you are in a good mood?
He ate slowly, enjoying the delicious taste, until the bell rang.
At night, in the Regent's bedroom, he was sweating profusely, as if he was having a nightmare.
In the dream, the world around him was red and white, like the colorful clouds in the sky, charming and eye-catching.
A woman in a red and white dress kept running around in front of her, giggling.
Later, the woman became more and more presumptuous, putting her fingers on his chest and waist and doing all kinds of seductive things.
He was trembling all over and almost couldn't control himself.
This feeling was too unfamiliar to him.
"presumptuous!"
He woke up with a loud roar.
Xishun was waiting outside and was sleeping soundly.
The sudden sound scared him so much that he rolled off the bed.
Ignoring the pain in his butt, he got up and walked to the door of the inner room.
"Is the prince all right?"
The Regent wiped the sweat from his forehead and looked at the bulging quilt in astonishment.
He actually had that kind of dream and his body reacted.
Thinking of the scene in his dream, he felt even more embarrassed.
It has been many years since anyone could touch his heart.
It's really weird!
"Get ready for a cold shower."
"Your Highness, it's winter, it's bad for your health."
"Stop talking nonsense."
Xishun had no choice but to go there quickly, hoping that the prince would not catch a cold.
While the prince was bathing, he removed two braziers from the inner hall, as the prince might be too hot.
......
Bai Qinghuan had a good sleep that night, and early the next morning she packed her things and went to the city gate to meet Princess Changle.
She got on Princess Changle's carriage, which was a spacious four-wheel drive carriage.
It's not too bumpy to sit on, much better than your own carriage.
Princess Changle took her hand and said, "I'm going to the palace to accompany my grandmother for a few days. So many things have happened to you."
"If I were here, I would beat that pervert Li Chengze half to death."
"Fortunately, my uncle searched their house and confiscated it, otherwise you would have been in trouble."
Princess Changle came out of the palace and was so angry when she found out.
She got along well with Bai Qinghuan, so naturally she couldn't bear to see her being bullied.
Who the hell is Li Chengze? How dare he think about Qinghuan?
He was always horny and dared to do anything to the princess. His mother should have beaten him to death.
Bai Qinghuan felt warm at heart after hearing this, and his desire to be friends with her became even stronger.
"Thank you for your concern, Princess. I'm fine now."
"I didn't help at all, why should I thank you?"
Then he leaned close to Bai Qinghuan's ear in a mysterious voice.
"Do you know what the Minister of Revenue did?"
"I heard it was corruption?"
"Yes, guess how much he took?"
Bai Qinghuan had never thought about the specific number.
According to the laws of the Dongxi Kingdom, if an official embezzles 100 taels of silver, he will be flogged 100 times and dismissed from office. If he embezzles more than 100 taels but less than 1,000 taels of silver, he will be dismissed from office, his property will be confiscated, and he will be exiled 3,000 miles away. If he embezzles more than 1,000 taels
The Ministry of Revenue is in charge of the national treasury, so it is inevitable that the assistant minister of the Ministry of Revenue will embezzle money.
Most of the time, people just turn a blind eye and as long as they are not just sitting there doing nothing, those in higher positions will tolerate it.
When the water is too clear, there will be no fish.
"How many tens of thousands of taels?"
"You underestimate him too much."
"Hundreds of thousands of taels?"
Princess Changle stretched out her hand: "It's five million taels."
Bai Qinghuan took a breath and said, "This... is too much."
