Time Travel and Love

The two brothers left. Feiying appeared and stood in the pavilion with Shuangcheng. Chu Qingmeng was bored. "Do you two know how to play chess?"

"Sir, I know how to do it." Shuang Cheng replied.

"Master, I have some knowledge but not proficiency." Feiying replied.

"Well, Feiying, please play for me. Shall we play a round together?" Chu Qingmeng still held the pipa tightly.

"Okay." Shuang Cheng stood up and went to get the chessboard. He looked at Feiying and hesitated for a moment, "Brother Feiying..."

"You play chess with the master." Feiying reminded him when he saw him hesitate.

Yes, he is just one of my hands. He reached out and grabbed a handful of chess pieces, looking at Chu Qingmeng's back, "Master, guess the pieces."

"pair."

He spread his hands, "Seventh. I hold black."

"You two please sit down. I won't be disrespectful to you today." After saying that, a song "Ba Wang Xi Jia" slowly flowed out from his fingertips.

Cheng and Feiying smiled, then shook their heads helplessly. The master played the zither for his subordinates, and Jiu Ye really didn't care about the distinction between high and low. He dropped a word, "Upper left star position."

"The upper right star position." Although he was playing the piano, it did not prevent Chu Qingmeng from speaking, and Feiying made the move as he was told.

After the song ended, the chess game was at a stalemate, and "Ten Sides of Ambush" was played softly and slowly, without such a strong murderous aura.

"Fourteen out of nine." Shuang Cheng frowned and slowly placed a piece.

"Three, three." Feiying made his move easily, and Chu Qingmeng's pipa played without even a pause.

The three of them were having fun, but this scene? It was so bad that Wu Qing and Quan Si almost stumbled in the air when they arrived.

"Greetings, Master." After the two brothers saluted, Wu Qing asked with a hint of horror, "Master, what are they doing? Where is Tian Gang?"

Chu Qingmeng was amused by his words, and the pipa stopped playing. After hearing Shuang Cheng's moves, she smiled and continued, "Four to seventeen. I let them sit down, and Feiying made the moves for me. I was bored and played the pipa for fun."

But it must be said that Chu Qingmeng still had a premonition, so much so that the assassins the next day were dumbfounded.

Around lunchtime, Chu Qingmeng was about to go to the restaurant when the two brothers came back. Of course, they didn't see the strange scene.

The two men deployed the secret guards and the Qianning Guards of Qianji Pavilion to guard the people in the mansion. Chu Qingmeng did not let them touch the people on the fifth floor, but asked Kui Wenzhong to instruct the shadow guards to stay nearby and not to take action until the signal flare was fired.

Listening to the two's deployment, Chu Qingmeng nodded. It was good. She was just too worried. After lunch, she held Xiao Mingwei in her arms and played in the pavilion. Li and Xu sat nearby, embroidering flowers, while the two brothers worked on files. It was a quiet and peaceful scene.

"Mother, shall I leave this pattern for you to make a bellyband?" Li smiled and measured Chu Qingmeng's waist. "I estimate it's about right. Mother is just a little too thin."

Chu Qingmeng just stood there holding Xiao Ming and smiled. "You spent all this time trying to make this for me? You must have the patience. Back when I was still young and staying at your second aunt's house, I once tried to sew a quilt on a whim. Unfortunately, I ended up sewing myself into the quilt, and your second aunt laughed at me for two days."

Feiying couldn't hold back his laughter before the rest of the family. Kui Wenzhong looked at him, and Feiying explained, "I'm sorry, I really couldn't help it. I was looking for a pair of scissors and couldn't find them. Later, I found that the scissors had been sewn into the quilt by the master. I had no choice but to pry them out with a knife. Finally, Princess Sinong found three needles in the quilt. With the master's craftsmanship, no one dared to use the quilts she made."

Hearing this, several people could no longer hold back their laughter. They tried to hold it back but couldn't help but burst out laughing. This made Li and Xu laugh uncontrollably. Even the two brothers couldn't help but burst out laughing. It turned out that their mother knew nothing about women's delicate work.

"..." Chu Qingmeng was speechless and choked. Dark history! Dark history! Even Xiao Mingwei laughed when she saw everyone laughing happily. Chu Qingmeng heard her laughter and pretended to be angry. He nudged her chubby belly and said with a smile, "You little thing, they all laughed at me, and you laughed at me too, right?"

Xiao Mingwei laughed even louder this time, grabbing Chu Qingmeng's hair and refusing to let go. Li was afraid that the child might be hurt, so Chu Qingmeng hurried forward to take the child away. Amidst the laughter and clamor, the gatekeeper arrived with a message that the Crown Prince's death had spread, and that all officials were required to enter the Eastern Palace to pay their respects. Someone from the Li and Xu Mansions had come to ask the two young masters if they wanted to go together.

The two brothers exchanged glances, and Mo Jiangqing spoke, "Mother, we..."

"You two take care of the arrangements, and just pretend I'm not here." Chu Qingmeng interrupted him, and said, "If I were to play for a hundred years, would you two have to dig me out if you need my help?"

"Mother! I told you not to say such things!" Mo Jiangqing now only admired his father. When his mother was angry, she was really infuriating, but his father could really hold back and never blamed him. He said helplessly, "Jiang Che and I will leave the house separately. I will go with my father-in-law and uncle first, and when I come back, Jiang Che will go with my father-in-law and uncle. But if we go separately, there might be some gossip, so I hope mother won't take it to heart."

Well, he knows the difference between the important and the secondary. As expected, the eldest son is the most stable one in charge of the family. The second son may look stable on the surface, but he is actually the least reliable one. He nodded, indicating that he could do whatever he wanted.
