Jun Zechen couldn't help but chuckle.
"You don't even blush when you praise yourself?"
"Then Your Highness, would you like to praise me?"
Su Jingyao gently placed a piece down, then raised her eyes, looking straight at him with her watery gaze, her eyes full of anticipation.
"What do you want to hear?"
I came here today because I didn't want her to be upset because of the new woman. It would be worth it if some compliments could make her smile.
"Can you listen to whatever your highness wants to praise?"
Su Jingyao blinked, and the smile on her lips became brighter.
Jun Zechen nodded, his eyes full of tenderness today.
Seeing him like this, Su Jingyao wondered if he was feeling guilty about having another woman soon.
Then let’s squeeze him hard today.
"Talent, temperament, character, beauty, Your Highness, you must praise me every time I make a move. If I am not satisfied with the praise, you can give me a move."
There was a hint of coquettishness in Su Jingyao's tone, and her expression was proud and cute.
"It seems that if I don't praise you today, this game of chess won't go on."
"It's good that Your Highness knows. Let's start with the one in Your Highness's hand."
Jun Zechen obeyed her and pondered for a moment. Her talent?
This woman is extremely talented, and it is not against one's conscience to praise her.
"How many talented men do you know about sweeping eyebrows? They are not as good as the spring breeze."
There are not many women as talented as her, even those who can fully appreciate the sublime realm of literature are not as good as her.
Su Jingyao really didn't expect that he would praise her so highly as soon as he opened his mouth. Although she was also a little arrogant, after all, she had adult thoughts when she traveled through time and space, and had studied with her father since she was very young, but she didn't dare to say that all the talented men and beautiful women in the world were not as good as her.
But who doesn’t like to hear such nice words?
"Your Highness has passed the test, I am very satisfied."
Su Jingyao smiled sweetly, full of joy and satisfaction.
Seeing her happy, Jun Zechen couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth, revealing a faint smile, and then put down the chess piece.
Su Jingyao was always serious when playing chess with him. Jun Zechen was an excellent chess player. Every time he made a move, Su Jingyao had to think deeply for a while before making the next move carefully.
While waiting for her to play chess, Jun Zechen was not idle either.
His eyes were deep as he composed the next words to praise her in his mind.
When she finally made her move, Jun Zechen spoke.
"Gui is beautiful and graceful, with a calm demeanor and a relaxed body. She is gentle and charming in her manner and in her words."
After spending a few months with her, Jun Zechen finally found the woman who was worthy of these words. She was truly elegant and charming, with gentle and quiet manners.
She is gentle and graceful, beautiful and charming, and even her words reveal an irresistible charm.
"how?"
"Your Highness is really good at praising people. I am embarrassed."
Su Jingyao's cheeks were instantly flushed, like the gorgeous sunset in the sky.
She lowered her head slightly, her eyelashes trembling slightly, with a bit of shyness and charm.
Then he muttered softly, "I just wonder if Your Highness praises other women in the same way."
The voice was like a mosquito, with a hint of jealousy.
Seeing how satisfied she was, Jun Zechen put down the chess piece in his hand again.
But when he heard the grumbling, he thought that the woman was ungrateful and reached out to pinch her porcelain-white face.
With a hint of fondness, he said, "I have only praised you like this before."
Did she think anyone was worthy of his praise?
Su Jingyao sniffed and snorted coquettishly, then turned her attention back to the chessboard and continued playing chess.
After the game, she waited expectantly for Jun Zechen to praise her character.
But this really stumped Jun Zechen. Given her spoiled and willful personality, he thought of many words in his mind, but none of them seemed appropriate.
For example, "always gentle and gracious, and prudent in her conduct." This describes a woman who has a gentle and docile character, and behaves kindly and prudently, but this has absolutely nothing to do with her.
"Her appearance is the same, but her heart is like a knot." It doesn't seem right. Is she always dignified and consistent? No, she is just pretending.
Thinking of this, Jun Zechen couldn't help but chuckle.
Su Jingyao raised her eyebrows and said angrily, "What are you thinking, Your Highness? Is it so that Your Highness can't praise my character?"
There was obvious annoyance in her voice, and her face was tense, showing her dissatisfaction.
Jun Zechen thought about it for so long, but this smile made Su Jingyao so angry that she bit her lips and her cheeks puffed up slightly.
He looked like an annoyed kitten.
Seeing her dissatisfaction, Jun Zechen's eyes flashed with mischief, and he joked, "Jiaojiao is arrogant and willful, and her words are full of meaning."
Her personality is unique, and other people's poems cannot accurately describe it, so he had to write his own lyrics to praise her.
In fact, in his heart, he thought of another sentence.
"Even if I am eccentric and can't control myself, I still love you."
It's just that I'm not able to indulge it so unreservedly at the moment, so I'll leave it aside for now.
"Your Highness, are you saying that I am arrogant and willful?"
Su Jingyao's tone became even more dissatisfied, and her lips were pouted high. How could this be a compliment?
"Being spoiled and willful is also cute." Jun Zechen added.
"No, I'm not satisfied. Your Highness, let me have a son." Su Jingyao said coquettishly.
Jun Zechen reluctantly took back the chess piece that was about to fall, "Okay, I'll give you one."
Su Jingyao made another move, and finally a look of satisfaction appeared on her face. Then she held her pink cheeks with both hands, her eyes sparkling, and waited with great interest for him to praise her beauty.
"Your Highness, you have to praise the last item well. If you can't praise it well, Your Highness should go find another sister."
She raised her eyebrows and looked at him, with a hint of threat in her eyes.
Jun Zechen stretched out his finger and gently tapped her forehead, pretending to be angry and said, "You are becoming more and more tactless in your words."
"Your beauty..."
Jun Zechen's ink-black eyes looked intently at the beauty under the light. To him, her beauty could be described without even thinking.
Jun Zechen said it very seriously: "She is so beautiful that she can overwhelm a country. She is neither a flower nor a mist. She is the only one who can walk ten miles in the spring breeze."
Her appearance is stunningly beautiful, more beautiful than flowers, more misty than fog, and even the beautiful scenery of ten miles in spring breeze cannot compare to her in any way.
After Su Jingyao heard this, a smile instantly spread across her face.
Fortunately, this man is extremely handsome and talented, and it is a pleasure to be with him.
"Today, a new bride enters the palace, but Your Highness comes to Shui Ning Palace. Are you afraid that I will be jealous and sad?"
Su Jingyao tilted her head and looked straight at Jun Zechen.
Jun Zechen did not respond to her, but continued playing chess in silence, and the chess piece in his hand fell gently.
Su Jingyao did not ask any more questions. Before entering the East Palace, she had never thought that Jun Zechen would remain chaste for her.
Since she liked his power, there was no need to be too harsh on him in that regard.
There is no such thing as the best of both worlds. Su Jingyao may be able to choose someone who can be with her for the rest of her life, but such a person cannot protect her or the Su family.
Nor could he give her the wealth and glory and honor of the Su family that she always wanted.
