Chapter 259: The Chess Game

"This lady, I wonder if your husband is here today?"

Chu Yu glanced at him, "Does this son take care of a little too much?" ”

Ling Feng smiled, revealing a whole row of neat teeth.

Chu Yu looked away, stopped looking at him, and turned his head to look at the entrance of the Cloud Pavilion where people came and went.

This Yunzhong Pavilion is really gathering people from all over the world, just looking at the appearance of these literati, Chu Yu knows that these people come from all over the world, not all of them are from Beize.

Suddenly, a familiar face met Chu Yu's eyelids.

As soon as the man came in, he looked straight in the direction of Chu Yu, to be exact, at Ling Feng beside Chu Yu.

The two of them, too, know each other?

That person is tall and noble, and his temperament is extraordinary, and he is not surprising among the many people dressed in strange costumes.

Chu Yu put aside the suspicion in his heart and lowered his head and drank tea.

Ling Feng, Ling Feng .... Could it be that this Ling Feng is Murong Lingfeng, the fourth prince of Dali Kingdom? Thinking of this possibility, Chu Yu was shocked.

Shangguan Yan is the third prince of the Xia Kingdom, if Ling Feng is really the fourth prince of the Dali Kingdom, then it is understandable that the two know each other.

Removing the complicated emotions in his heart, Chu Yu drank tea silently.

I didn't sit here for long, and the first round of the competition began.

The person who came to host was Yun Yuchen.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the first round of the competition is to compose a poem on the theme of summer, and the duration is the time of a stick of incense, which starts now."

As soon as Yun Yuchen's words fell, a group of maids came over with a pile of white paper.

After a while, there was an extra blank sheet of paper on each person's table.

Yun Yuchen saw that everyone had been given a blank piece of paper, so he motioned to the person who beat the gong and drum to beat the gong and drum, "The first round of the competition starts now!" ”

Chu Yu looked around, a trace of something flashed in his mind, and then picked up the pen and slowly sketched a few strokes on the paper.

The time for a stick of incense soon passed, and the ink on the paper was dry, and as soon as the gongs and drums sounded, a maid stepped forward to collect the paper they had written.

The papers are all anonymous, and the submitter only needs to write the seat number on his desk and hand it in.

"Everyone, please wait a while, these volumes of yours will be reviewed by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and His Royal Highness the Second Prince, if your poems can be recognized by the two Highnesses, then it will be regarded as passing the first round of competition, if you can't pass it, you will not be able to participate in the next round of competition." , Yun Yuchen's clear voice sounded in the pavilion.

The crowd listened quietly, occasionally nodding their heads in acknowledgement.

Everyone was not surprised that the judges were His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and His Royal Highness the Second Prince, but Chu Yu felt strange.

No one had told her that these two would be judges.

She thought of her plan for a while, and she was a little hesitant in her heart whether she should continue that plan, she knew that her handwriting was more special, easy to distinguish, if she participated in it again as Shen Yu, it would inevitably be exposed.

And it is a little difficult to modify the handwriting temporarily.

But..... She didn't know what the next round of competition would be, and if it had nothing to do with handwriting, it would be the best.

Chu Yu turned his head sideways and looked at Wang Chuling on the side, "Ling'er, do you know how long it will take for the results of this competition to come out?" ”

Wang Chuling tilted his head and thought for a while, "I don't know, this depends on His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and His Royal Highness the Second Prince."

"Normally, normally, it would have been about half an hour. Sister Yu, don't worry. After a pause, Wang Chuling said again, "However, there will be other activities during this period, so Sister Yu doesn't have to worry about being bored." ”

Wang Chuling simply thought that Chu Yu was eager to know the result.

Chu Yu smiled and didn't speak again.

As soon as she turned her head, Chu Yu saw Chen Yun and Shen Yanjun walking towards her side by side.

Both of them are dressed in purple, and they are both long beauties, and their bodies are quite similar, one is shaking, Chu Yu almost thinks that the two of them are familiar sisters.

Removing the glint in his eyes, Chu Yu stood up and looked at the two people walking towards him with a smile.

"The Seventh Princess."

"The Seventh Princess."

The two saluted Chu Yu.

"You don't have to be so polite, you don't have to be formal." , Chu Yu smiled, "Here, there are many capable writers, and you must also be outstanding in writing." ”

"The little girl is sparse in school, and she doesn't dare to compare with the Seventh Princess." , Chen Yun committed himself.

"Miss Chen is modest, the results of this first round have not yet come out, how do you know that you are not as good as this palace?"

"The Seven Imperial Princesses were brilliant in the past, and everyone in the capital knew it, so we didn't dare to be bored." , Chen Yun smiled and said politely.

Shen Yanjun on the side said loudly, "I have heard the name of the Seventh Prince Concubine for a long time, and the little girl is looking forward to the results of the first round of the competition. ”

Chu Yu smiled lightly: "Then look forward to it." ”

"In previous years, the crown princess would come to the poetry conference, but this year it was nowhere to be seen, which made us puzzled for a while." After a while, Chen Yun said again.

"Xu has become the crown princess, I have something to do, so I don't have time to come here." , Chu Yu said casually.

At the same time, in the East Palace, Zuo Qingqing, the crown princess in Chu Yu and Chen Yun's mouth, was sitting in front of her dresser with a bored face at the moment, and the rouge powder on the ground fell to the ground.

A palace maid stood aside with a frightened face, not daring to speak.

"I heard that Chu Yu also went to the poetry conference?"

"Yes..... It's...."

Zuo Qingqing snorted coldly, then stood up, and said angrily, "If it weren't for the fact that this palace was grounded, this palace would have been compared to it!" ”

"The crown princess is outstanding in writing, and she has always won the first prize in the poetry and literature conference, even if the crown princess does not go this year, everyone will remember the crown princess." , the maid on the side said in a small voice.

Zuo Qingqing's face improved a little when he heard this, and he paused before he said slowly, "Well, you go out!" ”

"Yes." When the little maid heard the order, she immediately committed herself and respectfully withdrew.

Zuo Qingqing looked at himself in the bronze mirror and bent the corners of his mouth, but then he seemed to think of something, and the smile on his face quickly disappeared.

*****

Yunfu is not special, but it is larger than the mansions of ordinary officials, mainly because Yunfu has a Yunzhong Pavilion.

Speaking of which, the Yun family is relatively different in the capital, because the men of the Yun Mansion can only marry one person in their lives, and they do not seek more children and more blessings. Moreover, the men of Yunfu are loyal and love their wives, which has become a good story in the capital.

And Yun Yuchen is handsome, and he is a well-educated and talented official son, and he also has a place in the palace, so he is quite happy with the women in the capital.

Many women read poetry books hard, just to be able to enter the poetry conference, and hide the jackpot in the poetry conference, which attracted Yun Yuchen's attention.

Wang Chuling chattered to Chu Yu, and told Chu Yu about the rules of the next activities.

Chu Yu looked at these women who were dressed up unusually fresh and refined, and a trace of darkness flashed in his eyes.

It turns out that it is elegant, but it is just a disguise.

Chu Yu smiled bitterly, what do people ask for in the world?

All ordinary women want in their lives is a privileged second half of their lives and a husband who loves them.

She herself is also an ordinary person, but on the basis of this ordinary, a little bit of unordinary factors have been added.

The intermission of the poetry conference is actually a part of the big guys communicating with each other. There are no restrictions, as for the rules that Wang Chuling said, in Chu Yu's opinion, almost all of them are useless.

Wang Chuling was very active, and after saying a few words to Chu Yu, he didn't know where to run.

Just now, Chen Yun and Shen Yanjun came over to chat with her for a few words and then left, Chu Yu looked at the backs of the two of them talking and laughing thoughtfully, when did they get so good?

Chu Yu felt that everything seemed to be developing in an unpredictable direction, and she couldn't control it.

What Master Yin Ran said suddenly came to Chu Yu's heart again.

Just as Chu Yu lowered his head and pondered, a mocking voice sounded, "This lady, I have a question below, I want to hear Madame's opinion." ”

Chu Yu looked up, and a man dressed in white was looking at her with a smile.

It's really ghostly, Chu Yu said secretly.

"Please." , Chu Yu spoke indifferently.

Ling Feng flicked his feather fan, blinked, and said with a light smile, "I don't know if Madam can play chess?" ”

Chu Yu frowned, what kind of problem is this?

"Yes."

Ling Feng chuckled, and immediately waved his hand to call the little guy standing aside, "You, come here!" Prepare a set of chess pieces for us. ”

"Yes."

After a while, the little guy brought a pot of chess pieces and quickly set up a chess game on the table between the two.

"You go first." , Ling Feng held a white seed in his hand, but smiled at Chu Yu.

Chu Yu didn't push it off, and the sunspot in the Gu fell in the middle.

The chess piece is just an ordinary chess piece, but when she twists it in her hand, it makes people feel that the chess piece is extraordinary.

Ling Feng looked at the green and slender hand, his heart shook slightly, and after a pause, he fell down with the white son close to the black one.

Chu Yu pursed his lips and smiled, then picked up another sunspot and fell.

In this way, one person has a son, and the two of them fall faster and faster.

There was some inquiry in Ling Feng's eyes when she looked at Chu Yu, and the speed at which she fell without thinking was like a person.

Chu Yu ignored Ling Feng's eyes, and just dropped another one.

Ling Feng looked at the "self-destruction" type chess piece that Chu Yu had fallen, his eyes sank, this one, it was difficult to decide where to fall.

Chu Yu didn't urge, just waited quietly for Ling Feng to fall.

Chu Yu raised his head suddenly, only to find that before he knew it, there were already many people around.

These people also stood quietly on the sidelines, and even if they occasionally talked, they spoke softly.

After waiting for a while, Ling Feng fell again, and this one instantly reversed the trap set by Chu Yu.

The person standing on the side couldn't help but exclaim in a low voice, "Wonderful! Wonderful! ”

"Let's see how the Seven Imperial Princesses deal with it."

"The Seventh Imperial Concubine is a talented woman, and she should have a way."

"I think this son is also good, his chess skills are superb, and he comes back to life with one move."
