After eavesdropping on my thoughts, my whole family changed their fate

He Linyuan sat in the back, pursed his lips and said nothing.

The jailer guarding the prison twitched his lips and looked at Jin Yuanyuan with an indescribable expression.

"Got it. Just wait."

He complained in his heart, eating so much, and still being low-key? !

If it weren't for the fact that they were thrown into prison at such a young age and the remaining money belonged to him, he would not have helped them.

The jailer went out and gave a few taels of silver to another yamen runner with whom he had a good relationship, and asked him to buy food. He then continued to come back to watch over them.

Jin Yuanyuan was sitting on the ground at this moment. He took out a chess piece from his arms and looked at several people.

"Do you guys want to come over and play chess? It's so boring. Let's kill time together."

The few people who were used to her taking things out frequently didn't find it strange.

When Xiaojiu and Gu An heard about playing chess to pass the time, they were very resistant.

They were not playing against her, but she had won such a difficult game as International Chess. How could they possibly beat her?

"We won't play, you can play by yourself."

Xiaojiu Gu'an knew how powerful Jin Yuanyuan was, but He Linyuan, who had always lived in the countryside, didn't know. Ignorance is bliss, so he pushed his wheelchair to her side.

"Let's go down."

He was helped to sit on the ground, with the cotton cloth that Jin Yuanyuan had brought out spread under his butt.

The two of them sat on the ground, playing chess out of boredom.

In the countryside, when He Linyuan had nothing to do, he liked to tinker with the chess board and study chess techniques.

Although her skills far surpassed those of her peers, she was still no match for Jin Yuanyuan, who won the game in just a few moves.

He Linyuan stared at the chessboard in shock for a long time.

"You...are so good at chess?!"

Xiaojiu was counting ants on the ground with Gu An out of boredom when he found the time to reply to him.

"Lin Yuan, you must know that she is the number one player in the World Chess Tournament. She defeated the most powerful Mr. Gu from Tianyuan Country. All the masters from other countries gathered together, but none of them could beat her."

Gu An looked proud of it and showed off by shaking his butt.

"My sister only played once and beat all of them. It's not surprising that you lost to her, but it's abnormal that you beat Yuanyuan."

He always subconsciously wanted to praise Yuanyuan, as if this made him, as the older brother, appear a lot smarter.

When He Linyuan heard that Jin Yuanyuan was the first in the International Chess competition, his mouth opened slightly, unable to believe what he heard.

Jin Yuanyuan is only three years old!

But when I thought about the chess game I just played with her, I realized that her chess skills were really superb.

She could eat up the opponent's chess pieces without even noticing, without leaving any tail for the enemy to exploit.

He stroked the black piece in his hand, somewhat unconvinced, "Yuanyuan, let's play another round!"

"Okay, we're free anyway, come on." Jin Yuanyuan had no objection.

The two played another game, and the result was the same. There was no suspense. He Linyuan was defeated without a single piece of armor left, and he had no chance to fight back.

He finally gave in and put down the black chess piece in his hand, "I lost. You are really amazing. I admire you."

Although he has never played chess with many people, he knows that he is very good.

In the last two games he played with her, he was unilaterally slaughtered by her, as if every step he took was within her expectations.

If I was a little unconvinced at the beginning, now I am convinced.

Without an opponent, Jin Yuanyuan felt very bored and turned to look at the two people playing with ants.

"Hey! Xiaojiu and Gu'an, come over and play a game with me. What's the point of just the two of us playing?"

Gu An didn't even turn his head. "Why are you playing chess? We can't win. Playing chess with you is asking for trouble. We don't want to. It's more fun to count ants."

Jin Yuanyuan looked disappointed and said, "If you don't want to play Go, then play Gobang. That should be fine. You still have a chance of winning."

She taught the three of them how to play Gobang. The method was very simple: they would win as long as they connected the five pieces in a line.

The three of them got the hang of it quickly, and started playing against each other in pairs. They began to find the game fun as they went along.

Because it's no longer Jin Yuanyuan who wins unilaterally, she will lose too. Occasionally He Linyuan wins, and Gu An Xiaojiu also wins.

No matter how much they understand, they are still children after all. They are playful and can't extricate themselves from the fun.

The prison boss brought them the food he had bought.

First, a portion of roujiamo and spicy soup was given to Ding Mo and Ruan Qi, and the rest were sent to Jin Yuanyuan and the others in the prison.

The four of them took a bite of Roujiamo, drank a sip of Hu La Tang, and also ate sweet and sour pork, fish-flavored eggplant, and drank three-selected mushroom soup.

Playing Gobang while eating is quite fun.

Xiao Jiu took a sip of soup and squinted his eyes comfortably. "It's actually not bad to stay in prison all the time. At least I don't have to go to school or listen to the teacher's lectures. It's very comfortable."

Jin Yuanyuan feels the same way.

Here she doesn't have to listen to her mother's nagging or the teacher's explanation of the knowledge she already knows. This feeling is so comfortable that she doesn't even want to go out.

The four of them lived comfortably in prison, but things outside were in chaos.

Jin Yuanyuan promised to bring milk tea and double skin milk when she got home, but she didn't go home when school was over.

Jin Ruoyun sat there and waited very calmly at first.

Since Yuanyuan started school, she has been running around all over Kyoto. Today she goes to one classmate's house to play for a while, and tomorrow she goes to another classmate's house to hang out. She is often not at home.

Gu An also followed along. The brother and sister were inseparable. Gu An felt relieved to have Ding Mo around.

But today was different. It was already dark outside and the two hadn’t returned yet.

Jin Ruoyun couldn't sit still anymore and paced back and forth restlessly.

"Why haven't Yuanyuan and An'er returned home yet? It's been dark for a long time. Normally they would have returned by this time. Even if something delayed them, Ding Mo would have sent someone to deliver a message. Nothing should have happened, right?"

Cheng Che took a look at the sky outside and felt that something was wrong.

He pulled Jin Ruoyun to sit down and calmed her down.

"Don't worry, Yun'er. I've already sent someone to Jiu'anyuan to inquire. Maybe he was having too much fun there and forgot when to go home."

Although he said that everything was fine, he was still panicking inside and felt that something had gone wrong.

The person sent by Cheng Che came back to report. He was in such a hurry that he almost fell down before entering the door. He was anxious to report to them.

"General, Madam! The young lady and the young master went straight to Jiu'anyuan after school today, but they haven't come out since they went in. Later, a group of soldiers took the four people away, led by Jingzhao Yin. That direction seems to be... a prison!"

Upon hearing that the child was arrested, Cheng Che slammed the table in anger.

"How ridiculous! How dare they arrest people in public? Under the emperor's feet, this Jingzhao Yin is too bold!"

The reason why he blamed the fault on Jingzhao Yin was because he knew his own child.

Although Yuanyuan and An'er are naughty and like to play tricks on others, they would never do anything harmful to others.

They are all children with very positive values. What kind of mistake would result in such a serious sentence of imprisonment? It definitely is not his children's fault.
