Chapter 12: A Sharp Turn
Liu Shiyan pretended to be calm, got up and said a blessing to Shen Yu: "The little woman's stomach is a little uncomfortable, go and go back, please wait for Shen Gongzi." ”
Shen Yu bowed: "Miss Liu, please." ”
When Liu Shiyan came out of the box, Zeng Jing hurriedly came to Shen Yu's ear and said in a low voice: "It's past noon, the prince should go back to the house as soon as possible, the lord is still waiting for the son to have dinner together." ”
Without waiting for Shen Yu to answer, Zhou Zhong snorted coldly and said, "This is a drunken immortal residence, why do you need to go back to the house for dinner, if Brother Shen is hungry, the younger brother will order someone to prepare a good meal." ”
Shen Yu said: "Wait a minute, this game of chess will soon be able to determine the winner and loser, and it will not be too late to eat when the chess game is over." ”
When Zhou Zhong heard this, the pupils of his eyes shrank fiercely, and he subconsciously looked at the chess game, but with his chess strength, he really couldn't see where he could quickly tell the winner or loser, so he wanted to ask, but finally held back.
Yuan Xiaotong and the melon-faced girl saw Shen Yu's confident demeanor, and then they completely relieved their hearts.
The rest of the people watching the game also looked at the chess game carefully for no reason, only Zeng Jing was a little uneasy for no reason, and always felt that something was not right, but he couldn't figure out what was strange for a while.
For some reason, Shen Yu felt that his head became more and more confused as time passed, first his thinking slowed down, and in the end, he was even a little drowsy, it stands to reason that he shouldn't, he slept until dawn last night, and when he got up, he was still a hundred times more energetic, just a game of chess, why not!
Just when Shen Yu wanted to get up and go out to breathe, Liu Shiyan Shi Ran walked in from outside and said apologetically: "I'm sorry, I've kept you waiting for a long time." ”
Shen Yu had no choice but to sit down again. The two soon resumed their life-and-death struggle.
But what everyone never expected this time was that Liu Shiyan's moves were still sharp, while Shen Yu's moves were getting softer and softer, and they often only defended but did not attack.
Whether it is playing chess or fighting on the battlefield, the best defense is to attack, and it is definitely a matter of time before Shen Yu only defends and does not attack, revealing flaws.
In the face of a god-level opponent like Liu Shiyan, you don't need many flaws, one is enough, and your flaws don't need to be big, if there are, they are enough.
Sure enough, in less than twenty rounds, the entire chess game changed dramatically, and Shen Yu's hard-fought offensive quickly collapsed, and the situation took a sharp turn for the worse, and Liu Shiyan soon brought the battlefield completely around Shen Yu's Nine Palaces.
At this point, even people like Yuan Xiaotong and Zeng Jing who are familiar with chess skills can see that Shen Yu is not doing well, not only has he completely lost his first move, but the whole situation has become more and more passive, and even the veteran has to move his position many times.
Relatively speaking, Liu Shiyan is completely invincible, just let go of her hands and feet, and attack all the way, even if she can't win, she doesn't have to worry about losing.
Shen Yu's eyebrows furrowed fiercely, Yuan Xiaotong and the melon-faced girl were both ugly, and Zeng Jing's cold sweat was trickling down his forehead, and he wanted to say something several times, but in the end he only sighed in his heart.
The corners of Liu Shiyan's mouth curled, and she glanced at Shen Yu, who was frowning and contemplative, and her pretty face was full of sarcasm.
It doesn't matter if you are the pride of the sky, or if you have the resources of a god, you are unlucky to meet Miss Ben.
No matter how great your ability is, you can't compete with seamless intrigues and tricks, Shen Yu, you're done, and your Shen family is almost finished.
What about the provincial governor, Miss Ben will send you to hell step by step. Five rounds later, Shen Yu lost his cannon.
After another five rounds, Shen Yu lost his elephant.
After another five rounds, Shen Yu was eaten by a soldier crossing the river, and since then, the overall situation has been decided. Shen Yu stared at the chess game for a long time, and said with a wry smile: "I lost! I really lost! I will lose too!"
"It's been a strange feeling for years, since I was six years old, and this is the first time I've lost a game. ”
Everyone present looked at Shen Yu with very complicated eyes, some were gloating, some were constantly regretting, and even more were puzzled.
Liu Shiyan smiled sweetly, that smile was really beautiful: "Does Shen Gongzi know why you lost?"
Shen Yu thought for a while, shook his head and said, "I don't know, I really don't know, I can't believe it so far, I really lost!"
Liu Shiyan's pretty face was cold, and she said coldly: "Because you are too conceited and too blind." Do you think that you are really invincible in the world? Do you really think that you are the number one talent in the entire Yuzhou Province? You are wrong, if you are not the governor of the province, you can't even be the number one talent in Dongyang Mansion, do you know, I only used seven or eight percent of my strength in this game of chess, otherwise you would have lost a long time ago. ”
Yuan Xiaotong couldn't hold back the anger in his heart anymore, slapped the table, and scolded: "You are enough, aren't you just lucky to win the game of chess, what's the big deal, don't forget that you and Zhou Zhong lost to Brother Xiaoyu whether they chanted poetry or went against each other." ”
Liu Shiyan pursed her lips and smiled, got up and said, "I'm a little tired, so I'll go back to the house to rest first, Shen Gongzi don't forget the 10,000 taels of silver and say goodbye." ”
Zhou Zhong smiled and said, "Brother Shen take care, the younger brother will also leave first." ”
In a few breaths, only Shen Yu, Zeng Jing and Yuan Xiaotong were left in the entire box, and the melon-faced girl originally wanted to stay, but was dragged away by a female companion.
Yuan Xiaotong looked at Shen Yu, who was still stunned, with complicated eyes, and said softly: "Brother Xiaoyu, don't think about it, in fact, it's not a big deal, isn't it just 10,000 taels of silver, I have 1,000 taels here, Brother Xiaoyu will use it first." ”
As he spoke, he reached into his arms, grabbed out a silver ticket of one thousand taels and handed it to Shen Yu.
Shen Yu smiled helplessly, took the silver ticket handed by the girl, and said, "Of course I won't care about 10,000 taels of silver, but the key problem is that I really can't take it out." My father has a clean sleeve, except for the monthly money, there is no other source of money, the reason why I agreed to Miss Liu's proposal is mainly because I never thought that I would lose in chess!"
Yuan Xiaotong and Zeng Jing couldn't help but be sad when they heard this, especially Zeng Jing, Yuan Xiaotong could still come out with a thousand taels of silver to help, but he really didn't have it, let alone a thousand taels, he didn't even have a tael of silver on his body now.
What is the concept of 10,000 taels of silver?
Let's put it this way, if you want to buy a maid servant, you can buy about 200 of them, and if you want to buy the most expensive cattle in the livestock, you can buy more than 400 heads!
Yuan Xiaotong bit his silver teeth: "Brother Xiaoyu, don't worry, I'll go back to my father and ask him to lend you Brother Xiaoyu first." ”
After that, the girl trotted away without waiting for Shen Yu to answer.
Zeng Jing sighed for a while and said: "Liu Kunlun's crime is extremely evil, and when the governor finds out the truth, no one in the entire Liu family can escape, in my opinion, the prince does not need to rush to fulfill the bet, delay for a while, and wait for the governor's actions." ”
Shen Yu touched his nose and said with a wry smile: "Let's go, let's go back to the house." ”
