"Princely Heir, Huang Su has gone to Xie Zhen's residence."
"Your Highness, Huang Su has left."
"Your Highness, Qi Lie has taken the people of Golden Turtle Peak to..."
Prince Jiangning sat in the quiet room of his residence, casually flicking chess pieces by the lamplight as servants came one after another to report, gently calling out through the door before leaving.
Sitting opposite him at the chessboard, the Incense Fire Pavilion Master smiled without speaking.
This time, outside the quiet room, it remained silent for quite a long time.
The Incense Fire Pavilion Master, gazing at the edge of the chessboard, opened his mouth with a sense of lamentation, "Your Highness, this move of yours was unexpected and impressive."
"Impressive?"
Xie Sheng continued to play chess, self-mockingly saying, "Pavilion Master speaks too euphemistically. Shouldn't it be a great disappointment?"
"Those destined for great achievements need not concern themselves with trivial matters."
