Reborn, I was pursued by the Prince of the Broken Sleeves

Su Manman looked at Ye Mo with a cold expression and said calmly, "Guard Zhuiyun must have misunderstood something!"

She glanced at Zhuiyun again and said, "If you need help, save up five hundred taels of silver and come to me."

Zhuifeng: “…” Could it be that he really is in trouble?

Su Manman walked past him and headed into the house. "Your Highness Prince Qi, why are you in the mood to invite me to play chess today?"

On the table not far away, there was fragrant tea, pastries and cakes.

She sat down and looked up at him, "I'm in the mansion, busy reading medical books about the poison in His Highness's body."

"We can actually put the chess game on hold for a while."

Among the pastries on the table are peach blossom pastries. The freshly baked peach blossom pastries are bright in color, crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, and look very tempting.

She was full at lunch, but she couldn't resist the temptation of the pastries, so she picked up a piece and put it in her mouth.

Uh-huh!

It's really good.

Seeing that she was satisfied with her meal, he sat down and casually poured her a cup of tea, placing it in her hand. "Aren't you going to take my pulse again?"

"Didn't we just take my pulse yesterday?"

"Doesn't this poison require daily pulse checking?"

He looked at her with deep eyes, "Remember, if you save me, I will be your support."

He leaned forward and put his head in front of her. "If I am your supporter, I will be your reliable supporter for life."

This sentence says.

Su Manman frowned and leaned back in her chair, "Then your highness, please extend your hand."

He reached out and her fingers landed on his wrist.

The skin on her fingertips was soft and tender, and the skin on her fingertips had a thin layer of calluses, perhaps due to long-term use of grinding medicinal herbs. When she touched his wrist, she felt a strange sensation.

His eyes fell on her knuckles, where the calluses on the sides were thicker.

"Besides grinding medicine, do you often practice swordsmanship?"

She withdrew her hand and looked up into his eyes, “Your Highness should be more concerned about how to remove the poison in your body?

"Then how do we solve it?" He followed up on her question and asked.

"Wait until I make the antidote."

"how long?"

"As short as half a month, as long as a month."

"Ok, I will wait for you!"

"Your Highness needs to stay cheerful in the near future and avoid letting the poison take effect."

"I will pay attention."

He took out the chessboard, handed her the black piece, and signaled her to make the first move.

Su Manman made the first move, and he followed closely behind.

She was not good at playing chess, but in her previous life, for some reason, she liked to come to Prince Jin's mansion to play chess.

Every time I play chess, I like to drink the tea she makes.

So, most of the time, they were playing chess, and she was watching the game while adding tea.

She naturally knew his chess tactics very well.

She won the first game easily.

He frowned, took a few sips of tea, and said in a deep voice, "Let's do it again."

"it is good."

The two men put away the chess pieces and started the second game.

This time, he was very focused and showed no mercy when making his moves.

She looked calm, pressing forward step by step without slacking off.

On the chessboard, the two players chased each other, fought to the death, and refused to give in to each other.

Zhuiyun stood behind and watched, with cold sweat on his forehead.

what happened?

Every time the prince made a move, Miss Su seemed to have foresight and knew in advance where the prince would go next, and she would directly make a move to block his plan.

The two men competed against each other, with chess pieces covering the entire chessboard, and the game ended in a draw.

"Your chess skills are pretty good." Ye Mo praised as he cleaned up. "Unexpectedly good. Who did you learn from?"

"kindness?"

After all, she learned chess skills from Ye Zhi in Prince Jin's Mansion.

"I learned it from the old man under the big tree on the street when I was in Jiangyang."

Old man?

He didn't believe it.

"Why does the old man under the old tree on the street play chess so similarly to His Royal Highness Prince Jin?"

He asked in a deep voice.

"Oh?" She feigned ignorance. "I've never played against His Royal Highness Prince Jin. I wonder what his chess style is like?"

"Let's play chess together next time?" he asked tentatively.

"No need!" She flatly refused, putting down her hand and saying, "I don't like playing chess with people I don't know well."

Placing the chess piece on the board, he smiled faintly and said, "Okay, now I see. It seems like your styles of play aren't that similar."

The two played two more games of chess.

These two times, Su Manman tried her best to restrain her edge and shed Ye Zhi's chess style, losing twice in a row.

As the sky gradually darkened, she stood up and stretched. "Alright, Your Highness, we have to attend the flower viewing banquet at the Princess's residence tomorrow, so let's stop here for today."

"Row."

There were four plates of pastries next to her, all of which had been eaten up, with only a few left.

Ye Mo stared at the crumbs of pastry at the corner of her lips and smiled, "Like a little cat."

"What?" She didn't react to his inexplicable words.

"I said, you eat like a little cat."

As he spoke, he reached out and tried to wipe away the pastry crumbs from the corner of her lips.

Su Manman took a step back cautiously, "What are you doing?"

He reached out again, "Is there something in your mouth?"

She didn't believe it and wiped it with her hand, but it wasn't clean.

He still reached out and wiped the corner of her mouth.

The rubbing of his fingertips made her cheeks burn, and she swallowed hard, "Your Highness, what are you doing..."

He held up his fingers. "Pastry crumbs."

"Your Highness, it's not too dirty."

She asked him back.

"You are my savior, what's so dirty about that?"

He replied confidently, "You might encounter something dirtier than this while you're detoxifying me. Will you refuse to treat me just because it's dirty?"

"Of course not."

"I'll take you back."

"Need not."

When she reached the door, his voice came from behind her, "Mo Daoxi confessed. The success of this matter is thanks to you."

"What do you want? Tell me as a reward."

Su Manman glanced sideways and thought for a moment, "I'll tell you when I've thought it through."

"Row."

In the evening, when I returned to Nishangyuan, Lin was waiting for me under the eaves.

Seeing that she had just returned from outside, he couldn't help but complain: "You have to attend the flower viewing banquet tomorrow, why are you going out today?"

"No problem, just treat it normally tomorrow."

"Mom will send you off tomorrow." Lin held her hand, full of anticipation.

"Mother, stay in the house tomorrow and don't go anywhere."

Su Manman instructed, "Let Taohong and Nanny Li accompany you. If anyone comes, pretend to be sick and don't go out."

"Why is that?" Lin was confused. "You said the poison in my body has been cured."

"I'm fine, so I can go out."

"Man'er, mother also wants to do something for you."

"Mom, you pretended to be sick and stayed at home so that you could do things for me."

Su Manman pondered for a moment and then said, "Mother, Aunt Liu has been eyeing me covetously. If she knew that Mother had recovered, she might do something strange to me."

"Mother, as long as you stay at home under the guise of illness and let her relax her guard, it will be safest for me to go to the flower viewing banquet."
