"Uncle~, there are a few people outside who say that Dr. Guozijian wants to see you~, and I've been waiting there for half an hour~." Lao Chen leaned against the courtyard door, glanced inside and said.

"Huh~? Guozijian~? "Chu Yun didn't raise his head, isn't Guozijian a firm Shu Wang Party, what are you looking for him for~?

"Did they bring a prayer~?"

"It doesn't seem like there's ......." Lao Chen thought for a moment, then shook his head and said.

"Then say I'm not there~, let them go~." Chu Yun waved his hand impatiently, he didn't even understand the most basic etiquette when he came to the door for the first time, and he was also a doctor of Guozijian, where have you read the sage books for so many years.

Didn't the sages teach them to bring enough gifts when visiting others~?

Lao Chen took the order, walked outside the mansion gate, and said to the people next to the carriage: "My aunt is not here~, you can go~." ”

"Not here~?" Several Dr. Guozijian glanced at each other and looked at each other.

Isn't Chu Xianzi confined at home by His Majesty~, can't he go anywhere, even if he wants to perfunctory them, he has to find a slightly decent reason~?

People are under the eaves, they have to bow their heads, no matter how angry they are, they still have to maintain etiquette on the surface, and arch their hands: "I'm tired of helping us report again~, just say that Dr. Guozi's Supervisor, at the behest of His Majesty, came to learn new arithmetic from Chu Xianzi~." ”

"Don't you understand what you're saying~." Lao Chen said impatiently: "My aunt said that he was not there~, you should go back and forth from where~." ”

After Lao Chen finished speaking, he turned his head and walked inside, and did not forget to tell the two guards at the door, "In the future, you must keep your eyes open~, don't let everyone come in to report~, especially those who don't bring a salute~!" ”

"Yes~, Mr. Chen~!"

Lao Chen is now the chief guard of the Viscount Mansion, and the two guards naturally dare not have any opinions.

Chief Chen even dared to reprimand the adults of the Guozijian and annoyed him, they must have no good fruit to eat.

"Arrogance~, it's so arrogant~!"

A middle-aged man in green clothes had a blue face, and the secretary and doctor of Guozijian came to the door in person, but they were just visiting a county, and they didn't even enter the gate, what a contempt and insult to them~?

"Alas~! Forget it~, let's go back first~. Si Ye, who took the lead, waved his hand and said helplessly.

With the temperament of that Chu county, today's closed-door soup was also expected by him, a few days ago in the court, the people of the country did not impeach this Chu county, and wanted the other party to greet him with a smile at this time, of course, it can only be a dream~.

However, he didn't expect that the other party's attitude would be so resolute, and several of them didn't even cross the threshold ......of the Viscount's Mansion.

In any case, Chu Xianzi must see it, and they dare not guarantee that if they miscalculate the account next time, their brains will not be able to grow ...... on their bodies steadily.

For the sake of his own head and the future of the country's eunuch, I can't swallow this breath, so I can only wait for tomorrow to prepare a generous gift and come to visit.

……........

……........

The little girl Yu'er was holding a big ragdoll in her arms and stood behind Chu Yun to watch him busy.

On a hot day, she didn't want to put down the puppet doll that her uncle sewed for her, holding a small one in her arms, and a big one on the bed, which was stuffed with rags, and she slept with her arms at night, but it was comfortable~.

I used to sleep with the eldest lady, but then I had an uncle, she could only sleep alone, and she would be afraid to fall asleep when it was cloudy and thundering.

"Uncle~, I sent them all away~." Lao Chen walked in from outside again and said loudly: "I think they should come again~, what if they bring a gift next time~?" ”

"Then leave a gift~, and people drive it away~." Chu Yun was thinking about whether the bow on the horns of the beautiful sheep was on the left or the right, and said casually.

"Oh~." Lao Chen nodded, and said: "Then if there is nothing to do, I will go to Old Man Sun to help, if there is anything to do with my uncle, let people come to the city to call me~." ”

Chu Yun waved his hand, "Okay~, go ahead, there's nothing to do here, remember to take a shower when you come back, there is no smell of perfume in the hook~." ”

After a while, Lao Chen walked out of the house with a smile on his face.

The hook column is to go and see, otherwise the mother-in-law and aunt at home will not be easy to explain, and there will be a chance to help Miss Biao, and by the way, find a few top-ranked martial arts masters to fight, and then there will be something to brag about with Xiaocui .......

"Is it left or right~? If it's just one side, won't the asymmetry look a little uncomfortable~? Looking at the uncle who started talking to herself again, the little girl was a little worried in her heart, and the aunt seemed to be a little wrong these days~!

…….......

…….......

"That's what they really said~?" In the Qinzheng Palace, Emperor Xia frowned and asked.

"The excerpt of the envoy of the Chu State~, the old minister has not had time to present it to His Majesty~." An old man in green clothes below spoke: "These days~, they even spread this matter in the market, whether Your Majesty agrees or not, they don't have any loss, if Your Majesty agrees, it is inevitable to compete with them again, if Your Majesty does not agree, I am afraid that it will greatly damage the prestige of our dynasty, and it is exactly the ...... they want to see." ”

"Even if I agree~, what are our odds of winning~?" Emperor Xia pondered for a moment and said.

The old man smiled bitterly: "I'm afraid the odds of winning are not big, Qin Xiang lost in Jingyi, Feng Chong lost in poetry, Huang Ke and Yi Lao Suo played chess, and the three battles were all ink, which is a rematch, and it is also a situation of losing more and winning less, and the others, needless to say, ......." ”

"There are only a few people in the Chu Kingdom~, is it true that there is no one available in my Xia Kingdom~?" Emperor Xia asked with a calm face.

The old man shook his head and said: "Your Majesty's words are wrong, everyone knows that Qin Xiang lost the scriptures, the poets lost the poems, and the chess saint lost the chess skills, but they didn't know that the nameless old man who debated the scriptures with Qin Xiang was the great Wenzong who shook the Chu State thirty years ago, disappeared, and devoted himself to cultivating literature for thirty years, how could Qin Xiang easily win~?" ”

"In addition, the young man who fights poems with Feng Chong is known as the highest poet in the Chu State for thousands of years, and he is known as a poet saint at a young age, he is more than ten years younger than Feng Chong, it is when his mind is quick, and it is not uncommon to be better than poets and ghosts~."

"Huang Ke lost unjustly, because even his father never won that person back then, Da Chu chess soul, since he was young, he has never lost a defeat, how can it be a waste of fame~?"

The old man sighed and said: "They came incognito this time and came with the envoys ......of the Chu State, obviously to embarrass the Xia Kingdom in front of the people of the world, and save the face of the defeat on the battlefield. ”

It's better to be better, no matter whether the other party is Wenzong or Shisheng, they will suppress the people of Xia to death, what their identity is, it doesn't matter at all, there is only one important thing, the people of Chu are bullied to the door, this battle, whether to take it or not~!

"I don't believe it~, this big Kyoto~, I can't find a capable person~!"

I don't know how long it took, Emperor Xia snorted coldly, waved his sleeve robe violently, and said loudly: "Go and ask them~, how do you want to compare~?" ”

One morning, after the morning, a piece of news spread in the market.

When today's son agreed to the request of the envoys of Chu to compete and compete in the palace tomorrow, countless people in Kyoto City are discussing this matter in the streets and alleys, everywhere and everywhere.

"This damn Chu birdman~, he actually dared to come to our Kyoto to spread wild~, he should have given them a little color to see~."

"A few people want to challenge the whole of Kyoto~, this is simply arrogant~!"

"Shame before the snow~, just tomorrow~!"

"Hmph~! Kill them~! “

……........

……........

These days, from the high-ranking officials and nobles, kings and generals, to the ordinary people, the people in Kyoto are actually holding a bad breath in their hearts~!

Qin Xiang lost, the poet and ghost lost, and the chess saint also lost, losing to a few unknown people in the Chu State, as Xia people, they also felt ashamed~.

Not only embarrassed, but also aggrieved~.

The aggrieved thing is that the people didn't make any conspiracy at all, and they carried out the cultural war in an upright manner, and there were only a few people, and they forced the Confucians to close their doors and thank the guests, hiding at home and not daring to see people, and even the vendors selling buns on the street felt disgraced~.

It's good that I'm finally able to regain my face and regain my self-confidence, and everyone is looking forward to defeating those arrogant people tomorrow.

…….........

…….........

"The Chu people are arrogant~, there are only a few people~, trying in vain to challenge our entire Xia Kingdom~, tomorrow is the first game of the competition~, which Qing family is willing to fight for my Xia Kingdom~?" On the top of the Golden Palace, Emperor Xia sat firmly on the dragon chair, glanced at the ministers with cold eyes, and said loudly.

The generals looked at themselves with their own eyes, their expressions were relaxed, and they didn't seem to care at all, tomorrow's battle is a civil war, and it has nothing to do with them, it's those rotten things, just wait to see the excitement.

When they fight, it is their battlefield.

The ministers bowed their heads one after another, for fear that they would be pointed, and they didn't dare to make eye contact with His Majesty.

The envoys of Chu are despicable and cunning, the old guy who said "I have played chess for a few years, I just understand a little", he is simply a national player in the hands of the country, even the chess saint Huang Ke has lost, the Manchu Dynasty is civil and military, who dares to say that he can win~?

Huang Ke is in the prime of life, it is the peak of chess power, and he is recognized as the first in the Xia Kingdom, but even he is not that person's opponent, who else dares to stand up at this moment~?

If you lose again, you will become a sinner in the whole Xia Kingdom, and your reputation will be ruined for many years, and no one is willing to take this risk~.

Suddenly, the court, which should have been extremely noisy, rarely fell silent.

"Could it be that no one dares to fight in my court~?" Emperor Xia had a look of disappointment on his face, in fact, when the envoy of the State of Chu made this request, he had only and could only have one choice.

All the subjects in Kyoto, including the envoys of other countries, are watching another collision between Chu and Xia under the battlefield, the significance of this competition is about the backbone of the country, about the national integrity, the importance is no less than a war, it is the Xia State that once again overwhelmed the Chu State, the prestige was greatly enhanced, or was suppressed by the Chu State, the people's hearts were frustrated, no matter what the result was, this competition or competition, the Xia State was unavoidable~!
