Chapter Thirty-Eight: Pan Lang
Su Xin looked at Jiang Qiman's eyes flashing with admiration when she mentioned "Master Su", and her vanity was greatly satisfied. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
That's her mother's brother! It's one thing for his own brother to be admired, but it's another thing for Jiang Qiman to be worthy of it. So she didn't mind the ladies around her at all falling in love with her brother.
What's more, his elder brother is so good, he is the youngest commander in the Five Cities Terracotta Division, and there are countless noble families who want to marry their Su family, but it is not an ordinary flower and grass who can marry in casually to be the daughter-in-law of the Su family.
Su Xin raised her chin, looked through the carved window lattice and looked at the wanton and chic Pan Gongzi sitting in front of the chessboard, and said: "I heard my brother say that Pan Dagongzi is also talented and beautiful in Guozijian, maybe the Zhongyong Mansion can prosper for several generations." ”
Having said that, the tone was with a hint of disapproval.
"Although the eldest prince Pan is talented and good-looking, he is much inferior to the two sons of the Fang family, let alone compared to Sister Xin's brother." Jiang Qiman also turned her head to look out the window, but she had a small calculation in her heart.
The eldest son of the Fang family has become a relative, and the second son is also engaged to Li Miaoshan of the Pingwu Marquis Mansion.
Even if the title of Zhongyong Bofu is hereditary for three generations, but according to the past situation, if there is no official position, the emperor will find a name to reward a Taishi Taibao or something, although it is a false title, but it is also a court minister of the first grade.
What's more, Pan Lang has already made a name for himself in the Guozijian, as long as he studies hard and adds the attention of the Pan family, it won't take a few years to get the emperor's respect.
Of course, the eldest son of Su is the first choice, and it would be best if he could successfully marry into the Su family, but if he ......
Jiang Qiman's gaze fell on the figure in front of the chessboard.
In order to settle for the second, Pan Lang is also a good choice.
Just when everyone's eyes were focused on Pan Dagongzi, a slender figure in aqua blue stepped into the main hall.
There was an uproar in the attic.
The woman's posture was staggering, but her steps were steady and powerful, half of her hair was pulled into a bun at random, and a hairpin with emerald and silver beads was inserted obliquely, and the aqua blue feather gauze skirt swayed slightly with the walk, elegant like a fairy.
Her face is covered with a white light veil, which shows her Tsinghua temperament that does not eat fireworks in the world.
No one expected that the chess player in the Weiyi wing room was actually a woman.
Since the moon full building opened for business, it seems that no woman has ever competed.
Su Ximei sat generously on the other side of the chessboard, with a smile in her eyes, and calmly stretched out her right hand to signal the other party to choose a chess piece.
Although Prince Pan has seen countless beauties, when he saw such a pair of eyes like bright stars, he forgot his words for a while.
It wasn't until the servant politely reminded him that Mr. Pan came back to his senses.
"Girl, let's pick first." He smiled heartily and returned to his previous uninhibited manner.
Su Ximei no longer shirked and picked the sunspot. Prince Pan naturally ended up in white.
Then each side room began to bet, although in the eyes of everyone the woman was like a fairy, but most people still put the bet on Pan Dagongzi.
In the capital, Prince Pan's chess skills are among the best, more than the top is less than the bottom, not to mention that no one seems to have heard of this woman's name, they are all white flowers, and of course they have to be pressed on the side with a good chance of winning.
After the bet was placed, someone tapped the gong, and the game began.
Su Ximei twisted out a sunspot from the chess box, but said with a smile: "The young man asked the little girl to pick the child first, then the young man will take the first step, so it is fair." ”
Although the other party is a woman, she acts above board, and she doesn't want to take advantage of herself because she is a woman.
Mr. Pan's eyes showed appreciation, and he no longer pushed back, and left a white son freely.
The corners of Su Ximei's lips curved slightly, and the sunspot in her hand fell.
Prince Pan calmly followed a son, and Su Ximei lost another son. You chase after me, just like two armies killing each other, after dozens of rounds, Pan Dagongzi's expression changed slightly, and there was a faint trace of panic between his handsome eyebrows.
A layman can't see the way, but a person with excellent chess skills can see at a glance that he has no chance of winning this chess game.
Mr. Pan wiped the sweat from his forehead, got up and bowed to the woman in front of him, which was full of respect and admiration for her.
"The girl's chess skills are amazing, and she is willing to bow down."
As soon as these words came out, everyone was in an uproar.
Someone was unwilling to speak up: "Master Pan, this game of chess hasn't been played yet, why is the winner determined?" ”
Mr. Pan was about to speak, when a voice came from Shenjia's room.
"Although the white and black are evenly matched at the moment, but at most three rounds, the white will fall into the disadvantage, and within ten moves, the white will not be able to fly out like a bird trapped in a beast."
When everyone heard this, they all poked out to see what was going on, and those who knew chess agreed with what the man said.
Su Ximei stood up and saluted the eldest prince of Pan slightly: "Accept." ”
At that time, my grandfather liked to play chess, my grandfather was superb in chess, and often played chess with an old gentleman, and the old gentleman's chess skills were even more superb, she was exposed to it since she was a child, and she had to be guided by the old gentleman.
Therefore, her chess skills are superb, and ordinary people can't compete with her.
Although the eldest prince Pan lost the chess, he was convinced, and looked up and smiled evilly in the direction of the Shenjia wing on the third floor.
"Fang Erlang, my son has come down to fight, you are embarrassed to hide in the wing room to watch the excitement, you will try it in the next game."
Fang Erlang?
Could it be Fang Xin, the second son of the Fang family?
Su Ximei looked up, and saw a figure shaking by the window lattice of the Shenjia wing on the third floor, and then heard a handsome voice coming from the room.
"Since Pan Lang invited, Fang Mou is very warm."
These words were like a bowl of ice water poured into a pan of oil, and the atmosphere in the building suddenly boiled, especially the ladies in the Youbing room who almost couldn't help screaming.
They all seemed to have completely forgotten that Second Prince Fang had a marriage contract.
But in a moment, I saw a handsome man wearing a colorful embroidered green bamboo brocade robe walk out of the corridor next to the main hall.
Everyone gasped.
If you want to say that Pan Lang is handsome, then Fang Jia Erlang's facial features are impeccable as jade carving.
The ladies in the boudoir in the Youbing Chamber all looked at him with ruddy faces and shyness in their eyes.
People yearn for beautiful things, so even Su Xin's heart throbbed a little for a while, but her mind was very clear, and Fang Jia Erlang would never be her final destination.
Her destiny can only be worthy of her noble status today if she is like that person.
Jiang Qiman, who was beside him, smiled abruptly.
"Second son Fang's Yushu is in the wind, and his talent is amazing, but the girl who is happy sister is not self-sufficient, and she is secret, oh no, she is obviously infatuated with Fang Ergongzi." She said this unhurriedly, with a hint of sarcasm in her tone, "Not to mention that Second Prince Fang has already had a marriage contract, even if he is not engaged, it will not be the turn of a stupid man who is out of the house, not to mention that Ximei's girl's appearance is so unbearable, if I were her, I would have dug a pit in the ground and buried myself." ”
This drew laughter from the ladies.
Su Xin laughed for a moment, but she put on a posture of defending her sister.
"Sister Qiman, I can't say that, Sister Xi is the daughter of our Su family after all, even if she is unbearable, but our Su family has a big business, it is difficult to afford to raise such a little girl as her."
How could the ladies present not understand the meaning of these words.
Looking at the entire capital, who would like to marry such an ugly and unexpensive woman.
Ximei's girl can only eat in the prime minister's mansion and wait for death.
