At the beginning of the year, when Lin Wan woke up, everyone had already fallen asleep. Qingtong had also fallen asleep on the bed next to him.

Lin Wan enjoyed the tranquility very much, put on the cloak, and wanted to go out for a walk. Qingtong woke up when she heard the sound, and got up and followed her.

The courtyard was dark, and outside the courtyard was a forest of apricot blossoms, Lin Wan walked into the forest, looked at the apricot blossoms in the moonlight, and felt like in a dream.

Lin Wan remembered that when he came, he saw an octagonal pavilion in the forest with a very special name, called Feihua Pavilion. The grass is green, the apricot blossoms are luxuriant, and the scenery is extremely beautiful, so I walked directly there.

From afar, Lin Wan saw an old monk playing against a man in white in the pavilion, and the man in white held a chess piece and did not fall for a long time.

Lin Wan didn't want to disturb, so he turned around and left.

"Since the donor is here, it is better to come and watch the chess. The old monk's voice was not loud, but it was as clear as in his ears, and his voice was gentle, making people feel like a spring breeze.

Lin Wan smiled slightly, walked over slowly, stood five steps away, stopped to salute, and said softly: "I've seen the master, I've seen the master, thank you for not blaming the master and the gentleman for not blaming Wan'er for disturbing the two Yaxing." ”

The old monk looked to be in his fifties, with bright eyes, medium build, round face, kind eyebrows, long beard and long eyebrows, all silver-white. Although he was only wearing ordinary monk's clothes, it was not difficult to guess that it was Master Lingyin. The man in white was about twenty years old, with an extraordinary appearance, dressed as a scribe, gentle and elegant, with clear eyes, just looking at his appearance and eyes, he felt that he was quite learned and wise. Moreover, it is estimated that there will be no more than five people in the world who can play against the Lingyin Master. Lin Wan has read a lot of books during this time, and he pays the most attention to these celebrities, and can roughly guess the identity of this person.

"Miss Lin Qi, don't be polite, please come in and sit. Master Lingyin stood up and clasped his palms together to salute.

The man in white saw that Master Lingyin valued this girl so much, and he was puzzled, and when he saw Master Lingyin get up, he also stood up.

Lin Wan was no longer polite, Qingtong was waiting outside the pavilion, she walked in style, after entering the pavilion, she invited the two to sit down first, and then sat on the side by herself, and carefully looked at the chess game on the stone table. Although Lin Wan is not good at chess, he has taken a Go class, and the Go teacher often explains various endgames. Lin Wan had a very good memory in his previous life, and he will never forget it in this life.

The man in white was still undecided, and Master Lingyin was not in a hurry, as if he was a chess watcher like Lin Wan.

After a while, the man in white put the chess pieces back into the chess box, and seemed to be about to give up, and was about to admit defeat.

"Mr. Qiu, wait. Lin Wan spoke to stop him.

The man in white looked at Lin Wan suspiciously, and Master Lingyin also stroked his beard and smiled, looking at Lin Wan. Master Lingyin had already seen that Lin Wan already had a way to crack it, so he waited for her to speak.

"May I ask Master Lingyin, what is the stake in this game of chess?" Lin Wan was not in a hurry to answer the doubts of the man in white, and asked Master Lingyin with a smile.

"How does Miss Seven know that there must be a bet in this game?" asked Master Lingyin.

"Mr. Qiu's chess skills are superb and open-minded, this chess game is not unsolvable, but Mr. Qiu can't solve the dilemma because he has distracting thoughts, and he plans to admit defeat after thinking about it for a long time, so he must bet on the price he is unwilling to pay, I wonder if Wan'er's guess is correct?" Lin Wan said eloquently.

"Miss Seven is really blue. Mr. Qiu wants Lao Na to guide him, and Lao Na hopes that Mr. Qiu will inherit Lao Na's mantle. Master Lingyin made a bet.

Lin Wan nodded after hearing this, looked at the man in white, and said with a smile: "Wan'er has admired Mr. Qiu Ming's name for a long time, but I didn't expect to meet today, Wan'er is very honored." The Qiu family is a scholarly family, Jiangnan Academy is famous all over the world, Mr. Qiu was already a champion of both civil and military affairs five years ago, but he proposed to the emperor to return to Jiangnan Academy to teach, and now Mr. Qiu wants to show his ambitions and wants to ask Master Lingyin for guidance on the future?"

After listening to Lin Wan's words, Qiu Ming was a little embarrassed, and hugged his fists and said, "Miss Seven smiled." ”

Lin Wan shook his head and said, "Mr. Qiu doesn't have to have any doubts, with Mr. Qiu's talent, he really shouldn't stay in the academy to teach, five years is enough." The country and the people need Mr. Qiu, but choosing the master is the key to all this. ”

Qiu Ming's eyes shone brightly, like a bosom friend. Master Lingyin smiled and said nothing.

Lin Wan turned to look at Master Lingyin and said, "Master, if I can help Mr. Qiu solve this game of chess, will Mr. Qiu not have to stay in Lingshan Temple to become a monk?"

Master Lingyin nodded, "Of course." Lao Na has never found someone who can take over Lao Na in charge of Lingshan Temple, and he likes Qiu Xiaozi very much, but he has no such intentions. ”

Lin Wan said with a smile: "The master is in good health, why worry, he will definitely be able to meet someone who is destined in the future." If I solve this game, will the master be able to answer Wan'er's questions?"

Master Lingyin smiled silently.

Lin Wan didn't say much, picked up a white chess piece in the chess box and landed on the board.

Qiu Ming and Master Lingyin stared at the chessboard for a long time, Qiu Ming got up and hugged Lin Wan and said, "Miss Seven's chess skills are superb, and she is ashamed of herself, thank you Miss Seven for her help." ”

Lin Wan hurriedly returned the salute sideways and said, "Mr. Qiu is serious, Wan'er doesn't dare to take it." ”

Master Lingyin stroked his beard and nodded, and said with a smile: "Seventh Miss, what do you want to know?"

Lin Wan smiled and said, "Wan'er wants to know, is it okay to go against the sky?"

Master Lingyin closed his eyes, folded his hands and said, "Amitabha, the reincarnation of the phoenix star, the will of heaven is free." ”

Lin Wan was stunned for a moment after hearing this, then nodded, and asked again: "I heard that after Concubine Chen died, the Seventh Prince lived in Lingshan Temple for three years, Wan'er has never seen the Seventh Prince, dare to ask the master what he thinks of the Seventh Prince?"

Ling Yin sighed and said, "The Seven Princes' intelligence and virtue are rare in the world, but he himself has no intention of doing so. Moreover, it is said that before Concubine Chen's death, the emperor intended to set up the seventh prince as the crown prince, but Concubine Chen Niangniang was extremely reactionary, saying in front of everyone that she did not want the seventh prince to be the prince, and the emperor immediately set up the eldest prince as the prince. ”

Lin Wan Zhengse said: "Master, if a person shoulders hundreds of thousands of human lives and the fate of the world, where is the choice? As a mother, maybe Concubine Chen really doesn't want her child to become the person who is overwhelmed by the cold, maybe this is just a way for her to protect the Seven Princes." Born in the emperor's family, and the only descendant of the Feng family, the seventh prince has no way out. ”

Master Lingyin nodded and said, "Seventh Miss is transparent. ”

Lin Wan turned to Qiu Ming and said, "Sir, would you like to hear Wan'er's words?"

"Miss Seven, please speak, listen to you. Qiu Ming said solemnly.

"Sir, if you believe Wan'er and Master Lingyin, please assist the Seventh Prince. Lin Wan directly stated his opinions without beating around the bush.

Qiu Ming and Lingyin were both shocked, and then Master Lingyin announced a Buddha name: "Amitabha, Seventh Miss, courageous and knowledgeable, dare to act, Lao Na admires." ”

Qiu Ming thought for a long time, looked at Lin Wan seriously, and said, "Can Miss Seven solve your doubts for you?"
