Breakfast is very simple, that is, boiled thin white rice porridge and vegetable stuffed buns, with the kitchen's own pickled pickles, although not rich, but can be called affordable, the important thing is that the breakfast buns are unlimited, open supply, as long as your meal is large enough, it doesn't matter if you eat ten or eight at a time, teenage children are growing up, the amount of activity is large, the appetite is good, and the size of the buns is not big, so there are not many who can eat a dozen, but most of them are not a problem to eat seven or eight, Tan Xiaotian is the youngest, The amount of food can't compare to those senior brothers, but they also ate six buns and a big bowl of gruel in one go, and their stomachs are bulging, not to mention how comfortable they are.

After breakfast, I went back to the dormitory to rest for a while, Zhuo Bufan, Gu Chongyang, and Li Mingxiu went to participate in training, leaving Tan Xiaotian alone, because I didn't know when Steward Zheng would come, so Tan Xiaotian didn't dare to study the two secret books, fortunately, Zhuo Bufan still has a lot of chess books that can't be found on the market outside, although the degree is far less than "The Secret Score of the Lan" and "One Heart Collection", but compared to the general chess books, it is much more advanced, Tan Xiaotian dismantled and studied on the chessboard while flipping through it, and time passed quickly.

There was a squeak at the door, and Steward Zheng arrived, and today he wore a dark gray shirt, looking shrewd and capable.

"Tian Tian, are you ready? When you're ready, go. He didn't enter the house, stood at the door and said to Tan Xiaotian.

"Hey, let's go." Hurriedly answered, Tan Xiaotian quickly put away the chess equipment, and then followed Steward Zheng out of the dormitory, Steward Zheng was very satisfied with this detail, because in a Go family like the Zheng family, the love of chess equipment is the most basic requirement, and being able to do this in daily behavior shows that this child loves Go from the bottom of his heart rather than seeing it as a means to make a living and making money.

Follow behind Steward Zheng. Two people walked through the house and walked through the courtyard with a small half-pillar of incense time to a small courtyard, the small courtyard is not big, but the layout is extraordinarily exquisite, rockery pond water, flowers and trees, the so-called sparrows are small, all the organs are complete, there should be a lot of things, there is a family at the gate of the courtyard, shy chest and belly. With a big waist and a round waist, Kong Wu is powerful, and he knows by looking at his appearance that he is a practitioner with a kung fu foundation, and he is more than one grade stronger than those who guard the gate, and he doesn't speak when he sees that Steward Zheng brings people here, but just lets the two people go in freely, during which Steward Zheng nodded to him, but he didn't even roll his eyes. It is like a clay wood carved gold guillotine.

"This man is supposed to be a master, right? It's just that I don't know who is stronger compared to Meng Jiaotou. Tan Xiaotian muttered in his heart.

Entering the courtyard, Steward Zheng led Tan Xiaotian straight to the main house, first let Tan Xiaotian wait outside the door, and he himself went to Tongyu first. Soon after, he came out again, "Come in, every day." He said.

Are you about to meet the old lady of the Zheng family? Tan Xiaotian's heart couldn't help but get nervous, although it was not as invincible as the Jiang family's Changjiang Yongnian. But Zheng Xinyu is also one of the legends who can call the wind and rain in the big chess, it is rumored that he learned to play at the age of seven and entered the game at the age of eleven. At the age of eighteen, he participated in the Imperial Chess Battle and scored in the top six, entered the industry of first-class chess players, and won the first place in the second Imperial City Battle five years later, and entered the Hanlin Academy to become a chess edict, such a record is only comparable to Tan Ziqiang of the year, although the edge was suppressed by Jiang Yongnian and Tan Ziqiang, but it is still one of the undisputed top masters in the Great Zhou chess world, even if he won the throne of the Hanlin Academy, Jiang Yongnian did not dare to despise it when he was the most victorious. And now, he is about to meet such a top master who he couldn't even think of before, how can he not be excited.

Stepping over the threshold, there was an old man in his sixties sitting on the main seat in the front, with gray hair, a goatee more than two inches long under his chin, wearing a dark purple embroidered collared gown, and playing with two shiny pecans in his hands.

"Every day, don't hurry up and say hello to the old lady." Seeing that Tan Xiaotian was looking at the two in the room in a daze, Steward Zheng hurriedly coughed lightly and reminded Tan Xiaotian - although he had already told him the etiquette when meeting the old lady on the way here, children are children after all, and no one dares to guarantee that there will be no accidents.

"Ah, oh, the old lady is above, Tan Xiaotian kowtowed to you." After being reminded by Steward Zheng, Tan Xiaotian came back to his senses, and hurriedly knelt on the ground and saluted the old man sitting on the main seat, and then stood aside respectfully.

Since Tan Xiaotian came in, both of them were looking at this child quietly, from the outside, this child is not particularly different from the chess boys they have seen before, but he is younger and his eyes are brighter.

Dressed a little rustic, and his appearance is still said in the past, spending money to buy some outfits and then finding someone to teach behavior and etiquette to participate in the competition, and his appearance will not lose the face of the Zheng family, but is his chess strength really as Ji Gong said, reaching the strength of ordinary thirteen or fourteen-year-old disciples?

The old man sitting on the main seat is naturally Zheng Xinyu, and sitting on the side seat is his eldest son Zheng Jili, although Zheng Jili is not the strongest chess player among his five sons, he has the identity of the eldest son of the long house, and the other is that he is very deep in the city government, calm and meticulous, good at overall planning, and is an important think tank for Zheng Xinyi, and Zheng Xinyi also intends to cultivate him as the head of the next generation of Zheng family, so many things he does will involve him.

"You're just Tiantian?" After looking at Tan Xiaotian for a long time, Zheng Xinyu asked.

"Well, that's what the people in the town and the chess yard call me." Tan Xiaotian replied.

"What do you think of your chess skills?" ――Regarding Tan Xiaotian's life experience, Zheng Xinyu has already seen it, he is not a person who likes to waste time, Zheng Xinyu asked directly.

"Well, in the Jiangdu Chess Academy, I am the strongest among the students." Tan Xiaotian thought for a while and replied - children are rarely humble, and what he said was the truth, so he was very confident.

"Oh, that's good. So what about getting here? Seeing that Tan Xiaotian was so confident, Zheng Xinyu was quite amused, raised his eyebrows, and asked curiously-what the truth is, but he is more concerned about this child's fighting spirit now, if a chess player does not have absolute confidence in himself, it is impossible for him to become a first-class chess player.
