Chapter 263

How can he eat so deliciously and have so much fun?

Wang Jian cannot figure it out!

But he must continue playing chess!

It's just... where should this stone be placed?

The stone Ying Su just placed was on the "sharp jump position!"

To be honest, that is a terrible move!

As long as I ignore it and play a cut on the spring position, then... a huge corner territory will all be mine!

But can this move be played?

It cannot be played!

If I play it, I will win!

Damn it!

It is truly torturous!

Compared to the war, Wang Jian is more anxious about this game of chess right now!

When will this game of chess finally end!

How can I let Ying Su win this game while making his chess skills look very impressive, so it doesn't seem like I'm letting him win?

He was pondering this in his heart.

At this moment, Ying Su opened his mouth again, and a Xiongnu beauty immediately cut off a piece of roasted lamb sizzling with oil and fed it into Ying Su's mouth!

But as the meat reached his lips, Ying Su closed his mouth.

That Xiongnu beauty immediately understood!

Oh! Right, I need to feed him with my mouth!

With that, Ying Su finally agreed to open his mouth, and then swallowed it.

Wang Jian watched this scene with his own eyes, his lungs truly exploding with anger.

Laozi is here, thinking hard about how to let you win the game!

You, damn it, are eating roasted meat on one side, watching beauties dance on the other, and then putting on this show right in front of me, truly not treating people like people!

If you win against me, Wang Jian, and this gets out, won't others laugh me to death? Will they say I, Wang Jian, don't even know how to play chess?

He was so angry that, in the end, he simply stopped playing chess!

He started to change the subject and bowed to Ying Su, saying:

"Your Majesty, I, your subject, have one sentence I wish to say to Your Majesty!"

"Ah?"

"What?"

Ying Su had just opened his mouth to drink a mouthful of fine wine fed to him by the Xiongnu beauty!

The moment Wang Jian spoke, he directly made Ying Su choke!

Coughing on one side, he waved his hand on the other!

The Xiongnu beauty immediately gently patted his back; finally, he recovered, and Ying Su looked at Wang Jian:

"Hmm! Speak!"

Wang Jian opened his mouth and said:

"Your Majesty, what I, Chen, wish to say is that you should not have come on this trip. Once this battle ends, you should return to Outside Xianyanggong as soon as possible; this place is too dangerous!"

As he spoke these words, he actually wanted to say this the moment he saw Ying Su.

No matter how you look at it, Ying Su is the Emperor; for an Emperor, the journey by carriage and horse out of Qin State is already very dangerous.

Yet, Ying Su, for some reason, came to the Xiongnu.

He came to the front lines!

How can this not be dangerous?

How can this not cause worry?

And how immense is Ying Su's significance?

You must know, he is the Emperor!

And he concerns not only his own family, but also Li Si's family, and even Zhang Liang, Han Xin, and many, many others.

If something happens to Ying Su, almost none of the people currently with him will have a good ending!

Even I, Wang Jian, would be finished!

After all, this is going against the First Emperor!

Wang Jian was extremely panicked.

However, the moment Ying Su heard these words, he laughed right there on the spot:

"Dangerous? You say this place is dangerous?"

"If this place is dangerous, then is there any safe place left in the world?"

Ying Su laughed heartily, shaking his head repeatedly!

And the moment this sentence was spoken, Wang Jian was stunned right there on the spot!

If this place is dangerous, is there any safe place left in the world?

This sentence truly shocked Wang Jian!

You must know, this is the front line!

Just less than a li outside the tent, the fighting is still going on there!

Cannons roar across the sky, and crossbow arrows shoot in unison!

This… and it's safe?

The safest place under heaven?

He was dumbfounded!

But… after thinking for a moment, Wang Jian suddenly saw the light!

Ying Su wasn't wrong about this!

Damn it!

Just look at the army here!

Every single one of these hundred thousand soldiers was recruited by Ying Su with his own money; this is the strongest fighting force under his command.

Moreover, every one of them treats Ying Su like a god; their loyalty to him is beyond words!

Upon learning that Ying Su's tent was right behind them today, nearly every soldier was thrilled as if pumped full of adrenaline!

Greed gleamed in every one of their eyes!

Likewise, this army only takes orders from two people—one is Ying Su, the other is Han Xin!

Apart from these two, even Wang Jian himself cannot move this army!

And with the army covered, let's talk about the generals!

Han Xin, Fan Kuai, Lu Wan, Cao Can, Xia Houying!

Which of these generals wasn't unearthed by Ying Su from among the common folk?

Without Ying Su, they'd still be commoners—what right would they have to be Generals, to lead troops into battle?

Because of this, Fan Kuai and Lu Wan often mutter around camp: they must kill enemies well, fight battles well, or they'd never repay Ying Su's cultivation of them!

And they'd never repay the pay and provisions Ying Su issued them either!

These generals—truly, every one of them is endlessly grateful to Ying Su!

Han Xin, though, has never said a word.

But every time Ying Su is mentioned, the almost-solid light gathering in his eyes says everything!

If he said he'd die for Ying Su, Wang Jian wouldn't doubt it for a second!

Apart from the generals and soldiers!

There are also super experts like Li Yuanba and Li Cunxiao!

If Ying Su isn't even safe here, then there really isn't a safe place anywhere!

What?

You mean Outside Xianyanggong?

In Wang Jian's view, that's the most unsafe place of all!

Too many pairs of eyes are watching that place—besides the nobles, there's the harem, the eunuchs, the palace maids; among these people, who knows if even one might be plotting to harm Ying Su?
