Chapter 103: Courtier Chess
Mu Yuanan lowered his head and fiddled with the sunspot in the chess box: "If you don't heal, it's a little strange, I can only wonder if your leg has never suffered from leg disease." Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info"
After Mu Yuanan finished speaking, he raised his head, his eyes were extremely cold, Mu Yuanan had such a ability, his eyes were originally as piercing as the cold snow in January, but after looking at Mu Qinyi for a few moments, he could immediately turn into a spring breeze in March, and said with a smile: "That's it, I'm not kidding, you have strong self-esteem since you were a child, and if you talk too much, you will not be happy in your heart." ”
Mu Qinyi has always behaved very indifferently, even if Mu Yuanan made a tentative speech, he just fiddled with the chess pieces with his fingers, looking focused, Mu Yuanan lowered his head and looked at the chess game again, but found that several key places were secretly changed by Mu Qinyi just now, Mu Qinyi saw that he found it, and he didn't hide it, crossed his hands and pillowed on the back of his head, and said with a smile: "It's rare for the imperial brother to be so focused on the leg disease of his brother, and it is really not cost-effective not to take this opportunity to be a scoundrel." ”
Just when Mu Yuanan was suspicious, Mu Qinyi was still in the mood to secretly change the chess pieces, Mu Yuanan really didn't know, should he say that he was idle, lazy and excessive, or resourceful, so as to hide the panic in his heart, this Mu Qinyi, he was getting more and more incomprehensible.
While speaking, Xiao Yuzi presented another teacup, and Mu Qinyi glanced at it and said, "Is there anyone else coming?" I thought that the imperial brother would only meet with his courtiers. ”
Mu Yuanan lowered his head and smiled slightly: "Cheng Huang will come over later." ”
Hearing Mu Chenghuang's name, Mu Qinyi's heart was really tight, but he still didn't care about it: "That girl doesn't know how to play chess, and she is here to watch, to be honest, these five princesses are not born to you and Concubine Ru Niangniang, rude and rude, with a hot temper, where is there a shadow of Concubine Niangniang." ”
Mu Yuanan raised his eyes and glared at him and said, "In front of Cheng Huang later, don't say this, you know her temper, start a fire, and directly push your wheelchair into this lake, I don't care." ”
Mu Qinyi raised his head, looked at the water Tianyi, the koi carp jubilant thousand carp pond, sighed leisurely and said: "This weather, if it is the next water, it is really very comfortable." ”
Mu Chenghuang received an edict from Xiao Yuzi this morning on behalf of the emperor, saying that she was asked to go to Qianli Pond at noon, just because she heard that she had been studying the tea ceremony recently, and the emperor wanted to taste her good tea while playing chess, but there would inevitably be opponents in chess, although Xiao Yuzi did not say who the opponent of the emperor was in chess, but fortunately, when Mu Qinyi was urgently summoned to enter the palace, he found a way to report to Mu Chenghuang.
Although the people from Prince Su's Mansion were very noticeable in and out of the palace, the quail met the maid Chunliu beside Shen Ke, and it was she who brought the news in.
This is the first time that Mu Yuanan has invited Mu Qinyi and Mu Chenghuang to be present at the same time, plus the recent affairs of the two, Mu Chenghuang always has an ominous feeling in his heart, Chunliu reported the letter and did not leave immediately, but asked with concern if there was anyone who needed her help, at least, she still had a martial art, although it was not as good as the red sleeves, but at the critical moment, it was good to have one more person.
However, he was still rejected by Mu Chenghuang, it was enough for him to wear red sleeves, and suddenly took Shen Ke's maid to face the saint, which was a little too obvious, but when Chunliu was leaving, Mu Chenghuang still commanded her with confidence, and asked her to tell her Shen eldest girl, if there was any unfavorable news about her in the palace, Shen Ke would not have to act rashly, just wait for the news that the people around Mu Chenghuang would come in person.
Chunliu's eyebrows tightened, she was only worried about whether something was going to happen in this Jinglan Palace, but Mu Chenghuang didn't say it, she wouldn't ask more, but she just remembered Mu Chenghuang's entrustment, and promised to tell her girl word by word.
In fact, Mu Chenghuang has been very hesitant to take who to bring this time, it must be the best to bring red sleeves, but after all, the red sleeves were Xiang Old Lady's personal maid before, and everyone knows that her martial arts are outstanding, but if you bring Wenzhi and Baojuan, I am afraid that something will really happen, and the three of them will not even have a chance to get out.
She was very distressed and kept thinking about what kind of decision Mu Qinyi would make if she was in this situation.
Mu Chenghuang walked along the long corridor, followed by Wen Zhi Baojuan and the others, she still figured it out at the last moment, if Mu Yuanan had evidence, according to his temperament, he was afraid that it would be like secretly dealing with Ying Baolin, and he would solve it quickly, since this time it was an appointment for the two to meet, it must be a temptation, so she must not be able to wear red sleeves, lest this temptation has not yet begun, and someone will be left behind.
Mu Chenghuang is wearing a gouache skirt today, with a plum blossom red shawl on the outside, and there are very few flowers and embroidery techniques on the body, it looks like a simple pure tone, clean and pure, and there is only a pair of goldfinch hairpins on the head, but the details of the goldfinch hairpin are handled very skillfully, two pearls hang down from the beaks of the two birds, just like a magpie holding a pearl to report the good news, Mu Chenghuang walked in the wind, the skirt was slightly raised, and the whole person looked bright and lively, beautiful and moving.
Mu Chenghuang stepped forward and saluted Mu Yuan'an first, and then looked at Mu Qinyi with some surprise and said, "Uncle Huang is also here." ”
Since Mu Qinyi's entry into the palace was deliberately concealed by Mu Yuanan, she naturally wanted to pretend to be surprised, Mu Qinyi also glanced at it simply, although her heart was full of joy to see his family again, but her face still looked slightly disgusted: "It's really the fifth niece, I heard the imperial brother say, you have been good at tea art recently, and even the queen mother praised you very well, but really? ”
Well, this king's mouth is very tricky, only a kiss can cure it, and whoever lets you die that night will not kiss you.
Mu Chenghuang replied with a smile: "Cheng Huang knows that Uncle Huang loves tea, this tea really has a thousand flavors, everyone has their own blending method, Cheng Huang's tea is just in line with the Queen Mother's taste, you can give it a try today, but if Uncle Huang feels that it is inappropriate, he can only be more considerate." ”
You dare to say it's not good to drink, try it, and see how I torture you.
Seeing this, Mu Yuanan also raised his hand and ordered: "Move the sea of tea over." ”
Xiao Yuzi took the two little eunuchs to bring things up, Wen Zhi and Baojuan stepped forward and rolled up their sleeves for Mu Chenghuang, Mu Chenghuang took out the tea leaves with bamboo tongs from the tea pot, and asked Wen Zhi to light the charcoal fire in the small furnace.
Mu Qinyi and Mu Yuanan were fighting against each other in the chess game, but in time, a fragrant tea was delivered.
Regardless of eccentricity, Mu Qinyi has to admit that Mu Chenghuang's tea-making skills are really first-class, no wonder the Queen Mother will praise more, and this tea is also very suitable for her own taste, although Mu Yuanan doesn't like to taste tea, but the top-grade tea is also drunk too much, but this one, the taste is unique, fragrant, and I can't help but praise again and again, and asked Mu Qinyi again and again what he thinks of this tea.
Mu Qinyi took half a sip, put the teacup down, smacked his lips and said, "It's not bad." ”
It's not bad, where is it, it's just not bad? Although Mu Chenghuang had already stabbed countless small flying knives around Mu Qinyi's body in his heart, he still said with great respect on his face: "If there is anything missing, I hope Uncle Huang will correct it." ”
Mu Qinyi seemed to enjoy this feeling very much, and seeing that the little overlord flower who usually held him left and right was so obedient to him, he couldn't help but raise his head and said, "Your qualifications are too poor, it's useless to correct them." ”
Mu Chenghuang clenched his fists violently, and Mu Yuanan also came out to play a round and said: "Your imperial uncle has tasted thousands of teas, so that he can say that it is a good tea, it is already the best in the world, you don't have to worry about him." ”
Mu Chenghuang squeezed out a smile and returned: "Uncle Huang is a pearl, and he is an elder, how can Chenghuang care about him?"
It's just hard to care about now, but in the future, you will look good.
After the end of the game, Mu Yuanan narrowly won one step, although he won, but Mu Yuanan's back and forehead were already covered with a thin layer of sweat, Gao Yuan was busy handing over a clean handkerchief to Mu Yuanan to wipe the sweat beads, Mu Qinyi looked annoyed, only one step away, but since he lost, he also lost convincingly and said: "Brother Huang is good at chess." ”
Mu Yuanan handed the sweaty handkerchief back to Gao Yuan, and said to Mu Qinyi: "I just hope that you don't lose this game on purpose, do you know that now among the ministers and the people, there is a kind of chess called courtiers." ”
"Brother Huang is suspicious, I deliberately want to lose, but I am afraid that it will be too easy for the brother to win so that the brother can see the flaws, so I fight left and right, pretending to be difficult to lose?" Mu Qinyi knows the meaning of this courtier's chess, playing chess with the emperor, it is not good to win, after all, he refutes the emperor's face, but he loses too quickly, and he sweeps the emperor's interest, the biggest fun of this game of chess is to enjoy the wanton fight on the chessboard between receiving and dismantling moves, and secondly, the emperor is not a fool, if you deliberately lose, it will naturally be seen.
The so-called courtier chess, is to deliberately let the other party win very difficult, not only let the emperor enjoy the pleasure of fighting, but also the joy of winning, so that the dragon face is happy, is the true meaning of playing chess with the emperor, but later, it is not only suitable for the game between the emperor to pay attention to this courtier chess, the lower and the superior play chess, the younger and the elders play chess, the seeker and the sought person play chess, all pay attention to this courtier chess.
Mu Qinyi said with a smile: "If the younger brother wants to win, no matter whether the opponent is the imperial brother or Zhou Yang, the younger brother will not let it." ”
He raised his hand and picked up the teacup, tasted a sip of the tea that Mu Chenghuang had just brewed, and bowed his head and said: "Do you know? Friends who read books, you can search for "", you can find this site as soon as possible.
