Chapter 363: Tragedy
"It's a big deal!" Teacher Guan shouted.
"Jiang Li'er is not only beautiful, but also very good at chess, it is said that when she was very young, she began to receive strict training like other Jiang family children, maybe because girls who work hard like her are too rare, or maybe girls are easy to please the favor of the elderly, in short, she has the opportunity to get Jiang Yongnian's personal guidance is not even less than the third generation of disciples that the Jiang family focuses on cultivating, and therefore, although she is a weak female stream, her chess ability is quite good, At that time, the young disciples of various families often met and exchanged in the Yipin Pavilion Teahouse, she disguised herself as a man several times to participate in the pseudonym, and she often won battles, of course, some people said that she could always win because no matter how she dressed up, those children of the family could also see that she was a daughter, and she was a very beautiful girl, the so-called Guan Guan Ju Dove, in the river island, fair lady, gentleman, those young people of the family were the majority, and they saw such a beautiful girl and played chess very well, and it was too late to flatter, How can you show real skills and have to see a real chapter? So the result is more losses and fewer wins, but no matter what, those children of the family have no mediocre hands after all, even if they intentionally release water, if you don't have considerable strength, you can't do it. ”
"Why? If you want to release water, you just need to deliberately take a few wrong moves, can't you? What's so hard about that? Lin Zicong said curiously,
"Childish! You've been studying at the chess academy for more than two years, and if you were asked to write the same words as you did two years ago, would you still be able to write them? Teacher Guan hummed - although the chess academy is mainly based on Go, but the cultural class has not been relaxed, there are calligraphy classes every day for students to practice calligraphy, persist for two years, no matter how no talent in calligraphy, the written words will definitely make great progress.
"Well, then you may have to practice it well," Lin Zicong replied after pondering for a while, calligraphy will become a natural habit after a long time. Even if it is deliberately confused, it will more or less have its own shadow, so an experienced teacher can recognize which student wrote the homework as long as he sweeps it with his eyes, although he is good at imitating other people's handwriting, almost to the extent that it is fake, but Lin Zicong asked himself if he had that ability.
"That's not the end, those children of the family have been trained for many years, even if they can't reach the level of first-class masters, many moves have become natural habits, and they can show a very thick foundation casually. Moreover, playing chess in the teahouse, it is often a large number of people watching the game next to the two people, and there is no shortage of skilled chess players among those who watch the game in Yipinge, so even if it is intentional to release the water, it is impossible to take those obvious mistakes and mistakes, if it is too easy to be discovered, not only will the people who are let not appreciate it, but it is more likely to be the joke of the spectators, "a pat on the thigh." Teacher Guan explained.
"Oh, that's right, like when I don't want to win, I don't play chess very seriously, but I don't make mistakes on purpose. That's probably the reason. After thinking about it, Lin Zicong understood Mr. Guan's explanation - it is easy to lose chess deliberately, but it is necessary to lose naturally and beautifully. It's not so simple to lose so that your opponent and yourself have face.
"I'm embarrassed to say it so reasonably, it's really rotten wood that can't be carved." If you lose chess, you don't say that the reflection has passed, but you are complacent, and Teacher Guan can be regarded as serving this son.
"Hee-hee. Teacher Guan, this is the second time you have used this word to say me. Lin Zicong didn't take it to heart, and reminded with a smile.
"Forget it, I don't have time to make you cough, so let's talk about it." didn't want Lin Zicong to divert the topic, so Mr. Guan continued.
All in all, Jiang Li'er is a talented and talented woman with color, and she was born in a famous family, since she was fourteen years old, there have been people who have come to the door to ask for marriage, dignitaries, rich businessmen, and the threshold is about to be kicked off, but first, she was still young at the time, and second, she was deeply loved by the old man Jiang and didn't want to marry too early, and thirdly, the little girl was very angry, and she had to find a person with excellent character and learning and who she liked to marry, so she never set the family matter, who would have thought that year somehow, she got along with Tan Yi. As I said just now, the Tan Jiang family fought to the death for the position of the overlord of the chess world, and it is not an exaggeration to say that they are not together, these two people are good enough to pay it back, so the two families are not allowed to associate with each other, so the Jiang family even gave Jiang Li'er a grounding order, not allowing her to take half a step out of the Jiang family's door. ”
Who thinks that Jiang Li'er is a woman with a lot of ideas, and Tan Yi is also a man who values love and righteousness, the marriage of the two is not supported by the two families, and they are silent, and one night they left home and eloped while their families were not paying attention, and each left a letter to his parents and fled the capital. This can be a hornet's nest - the women of the Jiang family do not abide by women's morals and elope away from home, the face of the Jiang family is lost, and the children of the Tan family, who are most likely to become the leaders of the third generation, are nowhere to be found, and both sides think that their own losses are greater, coupled with the grievances accumulated in the past, so they refuse to give up, and run to the palace to ask the emperor to give him an explanation.
As the saying goes, it is difficult for a Qing official to decide family affairs, not to mention this kind of thing that is related to the feelings of young men and women, although His Majesty the Emperor is smart and wise, but he cannot make a ruling that is acceptable to both families, so he finally decided to use chess to resolve the conflict between the two families in accordance with the management of disputes in the chess world.
"The result of the chess battle is not to say that you should have guessed it, Tan Yi was defeated, and he left the capital with the people of the Tan family to settle in Chang'an according to the agreement, and after Tan Yi left, no one in the Hanlin Courtyard could compete with Jiang Yongnian, so Jiang Yongnian naturally got the position of editor and became the supreme person in charge of managing the chess around the Great Zhou, and the Jiang family also rose because of this battle, and once again stabilized the title of 'the first Go family in the Great Zhou'." Teacher Guan said.
I never imagined that the change in the fate of the two families was actually caused by the emotional entanglement of a pair of young men and women, although the real reason for the life-and-death decisive battle was not so, but it was Tan Yi and Jiang Li'er who lit the fuse.
How many countries in history have risen and fallen from things that seemed small at the time, such as the uprising of Chen Sheng and Wu Guang at the end of the Qin Dynasty, the cause was just because the rain delayed the trip and did not want to be punished. (To be continued......)
