Thinking of how such a person had once been infatuated with oneself,

Wen Jin felt utterly disgusted.

He turned his head away, what you don’t see is cleansed from your mind.

Then he looked back in the direction of Ye Mingxin, as if washing his eyes.

He and Ye Mingxin mostly discussed poetic scenery and then played chess; he naturally knew her chess skills like the back of his hand.

Almost everyone at the Palace Banquet was paying attention to Ye Mingxin’s game with the Prince, except for Shaohua and Qin Xuanyun.

The two of them would occasionally converse in whispers.

"What do you think?" asked Qin Xuanyun in a low voice.

Shaohua, having honed her chess skills across several worlds and acquired a high-level chess skill add-on, had pondered over many endgames. With her keen memory and a powerful brain that always calculated a hundred moves ahead for every move she made, her analysis was swift.

At a glance, she could surmise the strategies the Prince and Ye Mingxin were employing.

Ye Mingxin was clearly underestimating the Prince, while the Prince was playing the pig to eat the tiger.

Luring Ye Mingxin step by step into a trap.

"Just wait, in another twenty moves, Ye Mingxin will be crying," said Shaohua nonchalantly as she withdrew her gaze.

The development of chess skills in this world was not advanced, and she had little interest in it.

Compared to that, she was more interested in what Qin Xuanyun had done during his one year in this world.

Remembering the once high and mighty sorcerer arriving in this world where women reigned supreme, she wished she could transform into an object by his side to see the expression on his face when he woke up one day.

However, this time her calculations were off, arriving a year earlier than expected.

Shaohua tapped on the table, noting the need for improvement.

008: [...]

Don’t act like it doesn’t exist, hey!

Qin Xuanyun, of course, also knew how to play Go. Seeing the Prince’s effortless demeanor, he roughly figured out his style of play, but he didn’t expect Shaohua to predict in one glance that the situation would change after another twenty moves.

"Shaohua, are you so proficient in chess? Were you just humoring me all along?" he whispered in a voice as quiet as a mosquito’s.

Shaohua cleared her throat, thinking to herself that she was already a martial arts god and a divine healer; it wouldn’t be too monstrous to play chess exceptionally well, but she feared it would make them feel inferior.

She laughed it off.

Qin Xuanyun looked at her thoughtfully, "I was also going easy on you before. You should play against me again sometime."

Shaohua: "..."

She exchanged glances with the General behind her and her mother.

"The Crown Princess could foresee that the situation would change after just twenty moves?" The General didn’t hear the latter part of their conversation, but upon hearing Shaohua’s previous remark on how Ye Mingxin would end up crying, they exchanged puzzled looks.

Her mother shook her head, but it was with a reverent gaze that she looked at Shaohua, "Let’s not jump to conclusions, we’ll just watch and see."

There had been rumors that the Crown Princess was ignorant and cruel beyond measure.

Yet seeing how she interacted with Qin Xuanyun, everyone was shocked but remained silent, their doubts growing.

Without mentioning it to each other, both began to count the moves in the game.

"How many moves have been made?" the General’s mother asked her daughter as she counted.

The General watched intently the game between Ye Mingxin and the Barbarian Country Prince. Although they were military officers, they were not ignorant of chess and had some understanding of it.

They clearly saw the extreme pressure being exerted on the board.

Wen Jin, the Empress, and others wore expressions of great joy on their faces.

But she also sensed something strange—the Prince, despite being pressured until now, remained calm and composed, and his moves were very stable.

She said, "Nineteen moves."

"Nineteen moves?" her mother nodded, and then looked as the Prince made his twentieth move.

Shortly afterward, the Second Princess smiled as she also made her twentieth move.

After seeing the Second Princess’s twentieth move, the Prince glanced at her and then placed the twenty-first piece.

The change occurred at that moment; after the Prince’s twentieth move, the situation on the chessboard changed instantly,

With a single piece he placed, the "breath" of the white stones was altered in an instant.
