Holy crap... there are sooo many sides to this?? This also shows the gap between Jingyuan's experience and Yanqing's natural talent. While Yanqing was good enough to put himself in a position to draw Jingyuan, he lacked the experience to see that he was also putting himself in a stalemate. This reflects how Jingyuan is a centuries-old general who's seen countless battles and can forsee their ends far in advance, befitting his title as thr Seat of Foresight

Are you telling me they showed us the entire 1.2 quest in a metaphor

[@LegendaryTalesandTrails]

Jing Yuan is Erudition for a reason. All Erudition are geniuses afterall.

[@kaenryuuart543]

Eruditions: genius that don’t like having responsibility.

[@LegendaryTalesandTrails]

@@kaenryuuart543 but do it perfectly anyway when they have no choice but to take responsibility. Jing Yuan is a prime example of that. 😉

And that's the reason why I love Genshin and Starrail, there are so many hidden meanings.

[@angngocminh3830]

irl, you'll get yourself in some situations in chinese chess that you just want some pieces on your side to just disappear
not sacrifice, disappear
anyways, great details

[@msu3445]

So the conclusion is that he stole the chess pieces and deliberately let Yanqing win.（Because gingko biloba is not a chess piece）

[@有明-i7z]

I remember playing this, good old time with my grandpa

[@jang2386]

The details are crazy
