Chapter 64: Returning in vain
There is a stone table in Yisong Garden, where Mu Zhiyue and Zhou Heng are sitting. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
In the game, if the rank or chess skill is equal, the white player will play first, and the higher player will play the white later.
Zhou Heng's identity cannot be made public, so Mu Zhiyue naturally will not be polite to him, so he has set up a seat and is the first son.
Zhou Heng was dumbfounded, what did Miss Mu Liu mean when she knew that her level was not enough, but she still took the initiative to invite the battle, but she also felt that she was acting quite freely, so she took Bai Zi and went down.
Mu Zhiyue's chess skills are very average, but Zhou Heng's chess skills are very superb, and she is ruthless, she can't resist it in just a few rounds, and fine beads of sweat oozed from her forehead.
Lingyan and Xiaozhuo don't know how to play chess, but when they saw their own girl's appearance, they also knew what the battle situation was, and the two looked at the beads of sweat on the girl's forehead, and they didn't dare to hand the girl a handkerchief for fear of showing their cowardice, so they couldn't help it.
But in fact, a few breaths of the master's move is enough, and Zhou Heng already knows what Mu Zhiyue's level is, but he just slowed down his speed and let her.
Slowly, Mu Zhiyue also saw that she was already bound to lose, lost the chess piece, took the handkerchief next to her and wiped it, and didn't care at all that there was a foreign man sitting next to her.
"I lost", Mu Zhiyue put down the handkerchief and said calmly.
"Agreed", Zhou Heng replied politely.
Mu Zhiyue had a cold face: "What you say sounds too hypocritical, if you win, you win, what do you say."
Zhou Heng felt that this Mu Liu girl was very difficult, and it was a mistake to be polite.
Looking at Zhou Heng's slightly flushed face, Mu Zhiyue suddenly realized her rudeness, and wanted to explain with some embarrassment: "I ......."
Zhou Heng raised his hand to stop her from continuing: "It's okay, the ruler is short and the inch is long, it's just different, and only this skill can be mastered, Miss Mu Liu doesn't have to mind."
Mu Zhiyue felt that she had really made a mistake in this trip, how could she talk like this, she only blamed herself for her poor chess skills, and she would not be able to control her emotions if she lost the chess.
"Miss Mu Liu didn't come over today just to play chess with Zhou, right?" Zhou Heng asked bluntly the doubts in his heart.
Mu Zhiyue was stunned for a moment, how should she answer this question, she couldn't think of a reason so she could only use her brother as a shield, "I heard my brother say that Zhou Gongzi is good at metaphysics, and he also told him about the new star catalog, but I checked all the historical books, and they all said that the new star catalog has long been lost, and I don't know what Zhou Gongzi is talking about."
Zhou Heng didn't expect that she even knew about the new star catalog, but he despised this Mu Liu girl, and returned with a deep sigh: "Mu Liu girl only looked up in the historical books, and I knew that some things were not available, and the new star catalog I knew was only occasionally glimpsed in the mouths of others."
Mu Zhiyue didn't expect Zhou Heng to confess to himself, so he just asked a topic to get closer to each other.
"I can't see such obscure things, it's our blessing that my brother can follow Zhou Gongzi for a long time, my brother doesn't know much, so I have to use this skill, and ask Gongzi to teach me", she said it a little sincerely, she didn't know when Zhou Heng would leave, and the days when my brother would learn things from him would only become less and less.
"Miss Mu Liu, if you don't say it, I will do my best, and I will follow Brother Ling...... It's very fateful", Zhou Heng can only say so.
But in fact, he thinks that Mu Chenqi is very similar to his former self, but he doesn't want Mu Chenqi to live in the dark like himself, he likes to see the big boy with a smile as bright as the sun.
"Does Gongzi Zhou still have a family?" asked Mu Zhiyue tentatively.
"Family", Zhou Heng repeated these two words in a low voice, "There should be no more", his answer was ambiguous.
Old Lady Mu said to the outside world that he was captured by robbers, and if he was just an ordinary person, the chances of his family surviving when he encountered robbers were not high.
His gaze was as deep as a lake, very good-looking, which Mu Zhiyue had discovered when she first met him, and she always seemed to be able to see farther through his gaze.
He said that he had no family, did he already feel that he was abandoned by his family the moment he was thrown to Beiyan?
"After that Zhou Gongzi, will he stay in Fengyang forever?" Mu Zhiyue asked very bluntly.
It's just that it fell in Zhou Heng's ears, but it means something else, Miss Mu Liu wants to drive herself away?
From the first time they met, he felt that she was deliberately estranged, and today he deliberately approached him, is it just to let himself leave the Mu Mansion, he doesn't remember where he offended Mu Liu.
"What if you go, what if you don't go?" Zhou Heng asked with an eyebrow.
"If Gongzi Zhou wants to leave, I will definitely ask my brother to pester you a lot, and you can only let go of your skills by learning your skills", Mu Zhiyue realized that Zhou Heng might have misunderstood what he meant, and hurriedly found a reason to prevaricate.
Joke, if it makes the Seventh Prince feel that he is driving him away, if he has to ascend to the throne one day, even if the Mu family avoids the disaster two years later, he will not be able to escape today's blame.
Zhou Heng didn't hear an accurate answer, but he didn't ask either, he couldn't leave for the time being, just assume that what Miss Mu Liu said was true.
Having said this, Mu Zhiyue couldn't find a reason to continue, and today it seemed destined to be in vain, so he simply didn't say it anymore.
got up and said: "I should also go back, I will disturb Zhou Gongzi today, and if Zhou Gongzi needs anything another day, you can send someone to Fangxi Courtyard to find me."
Zhou Heng didn't get up, maybe this is the habit that the superior has developed for many years.
"Zhou Gongzi's leaves blow very well, not worse than ordinary musical instruments, but the tune is too sad, Gongzi must know that when you go to the poor place of water, when you sit and watch the clouds rise, you must not lose your fighting spirit because of the difficulties in front of you", Mu Zhiyue said before leaving.
Zhou Heng, who left an unknown reason, shook out of Yisong Garden with his clothes fluttering.
All the way back to Fang Xie Yuan, Mu Zhiyue regretted her trip today, maybe she relied too much on what she knew in her previous life, she didn't like this feeling of not being able to control the truth of the matter.
She did not go back to her room, but sat under the old locust tree in the courtyard to enjoy the coolness.
Zhou Heng is more difficult than she imagined, and it is a little difficult to start from him, so what should she do next.
Mu Zhiyue thought of her grandfather, would it be easier to start from him, and then she dismissed her idea, her grandfather had been an official in the court for many years, and he was already an old man, and it might be more difficult to start from him.
Mu Zhiyue is now stuck in a dead end, one step forward is a high wall, one step back is the abyss, she hatefully hammered the back of the pineapple wood carved rose chair to vent her emotions.
Su'er, who had just entered the yard, happened to see this scene, and hurriedly stepped forward to stop it: "What's wrong with you, girl, if you don't have any pleasure, just come to hammer the slave maid, the slave maid has rough skin and thick flesh forbidden hammer, you don't have trouble with your own hands."
After finishing speaking, she smiled flatteringly and said, "Besides, this chair is quite expensive, and it is distressing to break it."
Mu Zhiyue was amused by her appearance, nodded her forehead and said, "It's just you, okay, I remember, I'll beat you next time."
Su'er smiled, "No matter how good I am, how can I have a girl, girl, guess what my cousin who was on an errand in Aunt Yan's house said to me just now."
"What good things did Aunt Yan reward her again?" Mu Zhiyue asked rhetorically.
Su'er stiffened her little face, "The slave didn't play with you, my cousin overheard Aunt Yan and the third girl talking about her family affairs, it seems that there is some kind of marriage contract, or a noble person in the capital." ”
