He looked up and saw that the child was as big as them.

Dressed in gorgeous clothes and carved with pink and jade, he stood there and looked at them curiously.

He Lianjue raised his eyelids, "You are..."

The child held up his hands and saluted in a formal manner, "Shen Jie of the Shen family meets His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and the two princesses."

The Shen family, Helianjue thought about it, turned out to be the Shen family of Duke Dingguo.

He knew that this family was the first Central Plains general to seek refuge with his father when he conquered the world.

Duke Dingguo Shen Chengzhi can be considered a capable person, but he is feared by the Daqi royal family. He has never climbed to a high position since his father's generation.

Everyone in the Shen family is considered a loyal person, but their loyalty is not to the royal family, but to the world.

Whoever can make the people of the world live well, they will follow.

He stood up and said, "No courtesy."

The child raised his head and said, "I heard that His Highness is very good at chess. I wonder if Shen Jie can have a game with His Highness."

"No less." He Lianjue simply rejected him.

Shen Jie was a little stunned, "Why not? I, I don't mean to offend, it's just..."

He frowned and tried hard to find an excuse.

He Lianjue continued: "You and I will bully the children."

"Ah?" He was stunned for a moment before continuing, "But Your Highness is only a few months older than me. I'm not a child."

"You know this as well?"

He tilted his head awkwardly, "Of course I know."

His brother-in-law is a chess teacher hired by His Majesty for the prince and princess. He is very good. In his heart, he is the best chess player in the world.

But every time my brother-in-law came back from the palace, he would always praise His Highness the Prince, saying that he was a genius and that when he grew up, there were few in the world who could rival him.

My uncle has never praised him so much.

Ever since he started learning chess from his brother-in-law, although the other party praised him for his intelligence, it was completely different from praising His Highness the Crown Prince.

He was not convinced and wanted to see just how talented this prince was.

So he made a fuss about his grandfather, Duke Dingguo, and insisted on taking him into the palace.

Duke Dingguo has always doted on his little grandson. After asking for permission from His Majesty and receiving His Majesty's permission, he brought him in today.

I was already very dissatisfied when hearing my uncle's praises every day, but now that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, who is about the same age as him, says that he doesn't bully children, I'm really... very angry.

He pursed his lips and stood there stubbornly.

He was thinking about how to get His Highness to agree to play chess with him.

Helianjue looked at his look and sighed, "Okay."

He is a child after all, and he is quite indulgent towards children.

Moreover, my father said that he would choose a reading partner for him.

Since ancient times, the prince's companion reading is equivalent to the prince's influence when he grows up.

Although he has no other brothers, he doesn't have to compete with others.

But it’s always good to have your own staff.

As far as he knew, this Shen family was also one of the families that his father wanted to choose as a reading companion for him.

"Here, bring me the chess pieces!"

Shen Jie suddenly grinned. When he smiled, there were dimples on both sides of his cheeks, which was very cute.

He Lianxuan was a little curious, so she walked over to him and poked him.

He was startled, "Princess, princess..."

"Why do you have two dimples when you smile?"

"Princess, this is called dimple. I don't know why it exists. It's been there since I was born."

"It's so beautiful, please smile more."

"Thank you for the compliment, princess." After saying that, he pursed his lips and smiled.

The dimples popped out again when he smiled, and He Lianxuan poked them with his finger again.

In just a moment, the chessboard was brought up.

The two sat and played chess. He Liancan and He Lianxuan were tired from playing just now and fell asleep on the small couch next to them. The palace servant brought a small blanket to cover them.

They turned their heads and looked at each other, and they all relaxed their hands in a tacit understanding.

Only a quarter of an hour later, Shen Jie stood up and said, "I lost. Your Highness is indeed a genius as my uncle said."

"You are also very good." He Lianjue patted his shoulder.

No one taught him how to play chess in his previous life, but he was still a man of two lives.

He has a photographic memory in this life, and is mentally different from other children.

Shen Jie can be with him for so long, which is already very good.

"Is this playing chess?"

Helian Lingfeng's voice sounded, and the two of them looked outside the pavilion at the same time.

Helian Lingfeng and Tu Qingyu were seen walking hand in hand, followed by several ministers and palace officials.

He Lianjue put his finger to his lips and made a gesture.

Several people looked behind them and saw the two sleeping little princesses, and subconsciously relaxed their movements.

Shen Jie walked up to the two of them and saluted, "See your majesty, see your empress, I've seen you all."

"This is the child of Shen Aiqing's family. He is indeed a handsome and handsome person." Tu Qingyu smiled and bent down to touch his head.

Duke Dingguo stood up from behind and said, "This is indeed my little grandson. He has heard my little son praise His Highness the Crown Prince too many times at home. He is unconvinced and insists that I take him to play a game with His Highness the Crown Prince."

"Really? What happened?" Helian Lingfeng looked at the two little babies and asked.

Shen Jie blushed and lowered his head, "It's Shen Jie who overestimated his capabilities."

In fact, he knew that His Highness had shown mercy.

Tu Qingyu smiled and comforted him, "You are still young, it's okay. You will be able to win in the future."

"Yes." He nodded seriously, "I will try my best."

Even if you can't win against His Highness, don't be left too far behind.

Helian Lingfeng waved to Helian Jue at this time, "Come."

He Lianjue trotted over. He bent down, picked him up, and threw him up.

He Lianjue was obviously used to being thrown up. He looked happy but made no sound.

After throwing him away for a while, Helian Lingfeng put him down and took him to talk to the courtiers behind him.

After a while, all the discerning people left, and their family was the only one left in the entire pavilion.

"The weather is nice today, can we have lunch in this pavilion?" Helian Lingfeng looked at Tu Qingyu and asked.

Tu Qingyu nodded, "Okay."

As soon as the food was served, He Liancan and He Lianxuan, who had been sleeping soundly just now, woke up smelling the fragrance.

Tu Qingyu and Helian Lingfeng walked over and each picked up one of them. The palace attendants immediately went over to wipe their hands and faces.

"Cancan, Xuanxuan, did you have fun?"

"Happy~" He Lianxuan's milky voice sounded in the pavilion, "Such a beautiful Fudie~ She also has a beautiful younger brother. When he smiles, he has dimples on his face. He looks good."

At this time, no one thought that she would be so obsessed with the hollows on that beautiful brother's face.

While eating, Helian Lingfeng asked Helian Jue, "What do Jue'er think of Shen Jie?"

"It's very good. He is not discouraged when he loses, nor is he jealous of my good study. He just wants to work harder." He thinks it is very good. He has such a character at such a young age, which is very good.
