Shen Miao looked at him and Shen Qiu was still speaking, "The more I think the angrier I get. Younger Sister, do not stop me. Even if I have to risk this life, I will not let them have it easy."
"Eldest Brother." Shen Miao sighed, "I have already said that there is no evidence for this matter. Since they are doing things, naturally there would not be a single drop of water leaking out. Moreover this involves Prince Yu of the First Rank and against Prince Yu, the Imperial family would give protection. If you were to jump out, you would be standing on the opposite side of the Imperial family. Do you want to kill Father and Mother? "
Shen Qiu was surprised for a moment. Shen Miao's words were too rational and made him ignore the disrespect and disdain in Shen Miao's tone towards the Imperial family of Ming Qi. He knew that what Shen Miao said was not wrong. In the beginning, there were many noble families that were defiled by Prince Yu and those families did not have a reputation higher than the Shen family, but at the end they were all raised high and lowered low. Behind Prince Yu residence was the highest power in Ming Qi and to clash with it was like hitting a stone with an egg. But he still felt very depressed in his heart. He asked, "We can't just let it go like this."
"Eldest Brother, play a game with me." Shen Miao said.
"What time is it?" Shen Qiu scratched his head. "Besides, I thought you didn't like to play chess?"
Shen Miao did not continue his words and set up the chessboard. She picked up the black pieces and gave the white pieces to Shen Qiu, "Two armies against each other, this is your troops and this is my troops. Using the pieces as pawns, the generals and commanders will be divided, how about we fight for the world?"
Shen Qiu had always been passionate about the battlefield and when he heard this, he became interested and said, "Alright." Even though he was a military general, he was proficient in chess. This was because there were many similarities between playing chess and fighting a war. An exquisite chess game could sometimes reveal countless tactics.
The white and black pieces fell on the chessboard, creating deep ditches. The black and white looked like a real battlefield. Shen Miao's chess moves were slow. It did not mean that her movements were slow, but it was very gentle. It was different from Shen Qiu's sonorous moves and had a kind of gentleness. This kind of feeling made Shen Qiu feel as if he was being ground by a blunt knife. No matter how Shen Qiu's white pieces threatened her, she remained motionless and maintained her own rhythm, placing the black pieces unhurriedly. Although it looked like she was at a disadvantage, the number of black pieces in her hand was not one less. Occasionally, when Shen Qiu was about to devour her black pieces, she would slyly escape.
After the time it takes for a stick of incense to burn, all the white and black pieces on the table were still there. No one had gained the upper hand, and no one had taken a single piece from the other. It was just that one could clearly see that it had always been Shen Qiu's white pieces that held the initiative and the black pieces were forced to a corner by the white pieces. If this continued, Shen Qiu would have to speed up his pace and he would be able to nibble away Shen Miao's white pieces one by one.
Shen Qiu said, "Younger Sister, your method of escaping is quite good but don't tell me you want to spend the night with me like this? I'm going to attack. "
"Just nice," Shen Miao smiled slightly, "I also intend to do the same." Before she finished speaking, the black piece in her hand suddenly fell to a tricky position. Shen Qiu's brows furrowed tightly. Just that one position seemed to change the situation of the entire game.
He was surprised in his heart. Previously the white pieces were pressuring step by step, but now it was like a cocoon of one's own making. He was trapped in Shen Miao's single black piece that reversed the overall situation and was unable to make a move.
Following that, Shen Miao changed her previous style of only attacking and not defending, and her moves were swift and fierce. She swept away Shen Qiu's white pieces in big mouthfuls, and in less than a quarter of an hour, Shen Qiu's previously full of white pieces was only left with one.
"I have lost." Shen Qiu laughed bitterly and looked at Shen Miao in amazement, "Younger Sister, when did your chess skills improve to such an extent?"
Using the chess game as a battlefield, he, a military general, was completely defeated by his own Younger Sister. It was simply a big joke if it was said out. But his heart was also very surprised. What Shen Miao displayed was not the control of the pieces, but the understanding of the overall situation. From the previous weak style to the final swift and fierce moves, her expression was calm. Perhaps how this game of chess would move was all within her grasp.
