Chapter 402: Star Gold Framed and Imprisoned (50)
What Reid didn't know was that Anhe had the same idea as him.
The two people with ulterior motives temporarily reached an agreement and quickly left the main planet through illegal means, preparing to help Reid regain control of the spacecraft.
Zong Yu, unaware that the two annoying guys were planning to join forces to deal with him, was currently discussing important matters with a politician in his study.
The people sent to monitor An He reported the news to the prince.
"Keep watching, and have someone secretly monitor the spaceship as well."
I didn't expect these two people to get together. That's good, so we don't have to deal with them one by one.
By the time we finished dealing with the important matters, it was already sunset.
The setting sun is about to fall, and the layers of clouds are sprinkled with a layer of gradient orange and red, which then gradually transitions into a dreamy pink and purple.
Zong Yu unconsciously walked towards the bedroom, but when he passed by the garden, he saw that the person who was supposed to stay in the bedroom was sitting in the garden playing chess with someone.
I knew she wouldn't be obedient.
Zong Yu walked over reluctantly and found that the person playing chess with her was actually Prince Zong Ming.
Zong Yu's expression changed instantly.
Zong Ming saw Zong Yu and smiled: "The Crown Prince is here."
Xing Lu didn't look back, but lowered her head to think about her next move.
The interstellar board game has gone through several rounds of improvements and is different from before. The chess pieces are made of crystal clear energy ores.
The gameplay is similar to the old chess, but with some differences.
...
Xing Lu is not someone who sits and waits for death.
As soon as Zong Yu left, she came out of the bedroom and walked around the backyard of the Prince's Mansion. Finally, she met Zong Ming who was playing chess with herself in the garden.
Xing Lu didn't know Zong Ming.
But seeing that the other person looks very similar to the prince, it is speculated that he might be the prince's cousin.
Zong Ming seemed a little surprised to see a strange woman in the Prince's Mansion.
Seeing that the other party was interested in the chess pieces in his hand, he made an invitation.
Xing Lu didn't understand the rules, so she asked Zong Ming to teach her.
After understanding the rules, the two began to play chess.
At first, neither of them spoke, concentrating on the game on the chessboard.
Suddenly, Zong Ming said, "I've seen you before, at the Xing family's old master's birthday banquet."
She burst in like a flame that night and quickly captured his attention.
Xing Lu didn't even lift her eyelids, her long and thin eyebrows pressing down on her slightly narrow eyes.
Zong Ming looked at her, and she didn't seem surprised by this.
Little did he know that Xing Lu was waiting for his next words. As long as anyone was against her, she would take out the handle of the light blade from her pocket and cut the other person's throat before the other person could react.
"Your name is Xing Lu, right?"
Zong Ming didn't seem hostile.
Although he looks somewhat similar to the prince, his personality seems to be much softer than the prince's.
Even his voice was like a gurgling spring, and his tone was soft and gentle.
"I didn't expect His Royal Highness the Crown Prince would hide you here."
He smiled at Xing Lu and said, "His Majesty the Emperor has issued a warrant for your arrest. There are wanted notices everywhere in the streets and alleys."
Xing Lu asked: "Are you going to report me?"
Zong Ming was a little surprised: "Why should I report you?"
"I know that the Xing family's murder was not committed by you."
Xing Lu became interested: "How do you know it wasn't me?"
Zong Ming smiled and said, "Actually, many people know this, including His Majesty the Emperor."
"He knows what happened between you and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince in Moristo, and he's just using you to trip up the Crown Prince."
Xing Lu asked, "Isn't the Crown Prince his only son? If the Crown Prince falls, who will inherit the throne?"
Zong Ming shrugged: "Who knows what your Majesty is thinking?"
"Oops, I was so busy talking to you that I made a wrong move."
Zong Ming was surprised by his opponent's cleverness, so he focused more on the game on the chessboard.
At this time, Zong Yu appeared in the garden.
Zong Ming noticed Zong Yu, so he looked up and smiled at Zong Yu.
"The Crown Prince is here."
Zong Yu looked at Zong Ming, his cousin, the son of the emperor's sister.
The emperor liked his nephew so much that he even allowed him to enter and leave the palace freely.
"Your guest is as smart as you are. He will learn it once you teach him."
Zong Yu didn't say anything, his eyes fell on Xing Lu's profile. She was concentrating on observing the chess board.
As a novice, she naturally could not beat Zong Ming, and now seemed to have reached a dead end.
Suddenly, a hand with distinct joints stretched out from the side of the ear, and the slender fingers moved one of the chess pieces, and the situation was reversed in an instant.
Zong Ming watched Zong Yu lean over, his broad shoulders covering Xing Lu, and he took her into his arms with a strong attitude.
"Since Miss Xing is a novice, I won't mind you hiring outside help."
Zong Ming lost, but he smiled and didn't care.
Xing Lu looked back at Zong Yu. His face was only a fist away from Xing Lu. She could see his thick eyelashes and the beautiful purple pupils under his eyelashes.
Her skin, as smooth as fresh snow, was so delicate that not even a pore could be seen.
His pupils met Xing Lu's for a second and then slowly looked away.
"It's time for dinner, so I won't keep you, Prince."
Zong Yu stood up, pulled Xing Lu up from the stool, and turned to leave.
Xing Lu looked back at Zong Ming. He was still sitting there, looking at Xing Lu with a smile.
"Do you two have a feud?"
Zong Yu didn't say anything, but his pace became faster and faster.
Xing Lu was taken back to the bedroom.
"Aren't we having a meal? Why don't we go to the restaurant?" Xing Lu asked.
The next second, she was cornered.
Zong Yu's face was hidden in the darkness, and compared to the holiness and dignity during the day, it seemed a little ambiguous at this moment.
"Do you like attracting attention so much?"
Xing Lu didn't care: "It's just playing chess, why is it attracting so many people?"
Zong Yu was very dissatisfied.
He really, really hated this feeling.
The feeling that her attention was drawn away by someone else.
Xing Lu felt that Zong Yu's temper was getting weirder and weirder. He had been indifferent to her in prison before, but now he was acting so unreasonable.
Noticing that Xing Lu seemed a little impatient, Zong Yu also fell silent.
After waiting for a long time without seeing Zong Yu say anything, Xing Lu pushed Zong Yu's shoulder away and walked out of the encirclement.
"Are you okay? Then--" go eat, she's hungry.
Before she could finish her words, her arm was grabbed and pulled back with great force. Before Xing Lu could react, a shadow fell before her eyes.
Zong Yu's actions were more ferocious than ever before. He pinched Xing Lu's jaw with his large palm, forcing her to open her teeth.
Xing Lu endured the violent kiss and felt a little confused.
"Well--"
"Zongy——"
What the hell is wrong with you!
Xing Lu was pushed down on the bed and Zong Yu leaned over her.
He kept biting Xing Lu's lips, then her cheeks, earlobes, and neck.
The distance was so close that Xing Lu could even smell the scent of ink and firearm debris on Zong Yu's body, which was caused by years of reviewing military newspapers.
Xing Lu finally realized: "Are you angry?"
"Why? I'm just learning how to play chess."
Zong Yu said, "If you want to learn how to play chess, you can come to me."
