Chapter 007: Concession
Cheng Xi opened her eyes, it was raining outside, Ji Chengjin was no longer in the room, she stretched out energetically, her health was full, and the allergy symptoms disappeared.
Hongye came in with the water to wash his face, and when he saw that Cheng Xi was going to get out of bed, he hurriedly stepped forward to dissuade him, but Cheng Xi shook his head and said, "Time is pressing, help me up, I can still learn." ”
"Princess, the game of chess is important, but you can't ignore your body, what if yesterday's situation happens again?"
Although Momiji is a bitter persuasion, after this period of time together, she also knows that the princess now has her own ideas, and others can't be easily shaken.
"Harm, it was an accident yesterday, and it's all because of the incense sent by Sister Ying."
Cheng Xi complained on her lips, but she understood in her heart how difficult it was to find Ji Chengjin to recover blood once her health was reduced, thinking of this, she decided to thank Ji Chengjin in person and casually probe his attitude.
After breakfast, Cheng Xi came to the side courtyard where Ji Chengjin lived, in her memory, this was the first time she came during the day, and it was exactly the same as what the streamer said, it was so cold that there was not even a mosquito, and she could still hear her footsteps.
There was no one in the streamer, Ji Chengjin sat in the room reading a book, Cheng Xi cautiously walked to the window and asked: "Thank you Ji Gongzi last night, I didn't think about it, if there is something to live in, I still hope that Ji Gongzi Haihan." ”
Ji Chengjin didn't raise his head, ignored her words, looked at the book in his hand intently, and even turned a page.
"Ji Gongzi, you shouldn't be angry, right?"
Cheng Xi saw that he didn't care about himself, and he turned the book smoothly, without being affected in the slightest, and he didn't know if what happened last night made him even more disgusted.
She was not discouraged and probed in, trying to see the book in Ji Chengjin's hand, and asked without words: "What book is Ji Gongzi reading?" Why don't you take a look at my book, a particularly powerful chess game! ”
Cheng Xi held up the chess book brought by Cheng Ying yesterday in front of Ji Chengjin, she found out last night that as long as she didn't make excessive moves, Ji Chengjin would not have strong emotions for her, in order to cultivate the bond between the two, and for the sake of killing one move in the chess game, she could only be cheeky.
Of course, there is another reason why she is so angry, that is, she bet right, last night Ji Chengjin was worried about her life, although it is not ruled out that the princess died, he would be killed, but overall, it is still a conscience to find, and the son can be taught.
Ji Chengjin was interrupted from reading, and raised his head with a displeased expression: "The princess is visiting, what are you doing?" ”
"There's a lot to do." Cheng Xi folded his fingers and said, "One is to thank Ji Gongzi for his help and care, the second is to thank Ji Gongzi for worrying about my safety, the third is to thank Ji Gongzi for teaching me to play chess, and the fourth is to thank Ji Gongzi for helping me win the Huachao chess game." ”
She wears a high hat like this, and it is difficult to refuse the words, which are applicable to others, but Ji Chengjin listened to it, turned around slightly and looked at the book again, and said without emotion: "If the princess wants to thank you, stay away from me." ”
"How can this be, you are my teacher." Cheng Xi turned sideways and put a smiling face in front of Ji Chengjin's eyes, "Our relationship is closer than ordinary people, think about it, not only do we live close, I have also entered your room, and you have also entered my room, this is the treatment of girlfriends......"
Cheng Xi, a little expert in death, has not finished talking nonsense, and the book in Ji Chengjin's hand slapped her face lightly, she sighed, straightened up and rubbed the bridge of her nose, as the saying goes, reach out and don't hit a smiling person, Ji Chengjin obviously does not abide by this rule of the rivers and lakes.
"Don't be angry." Seeing that Ji Chengjin ignored her with a little anger, Cheng Xi persistently coquettishly said, "Teacher Ji, Master Ji, I really came to ask for chess skills, why are you so stingy." ”
Ji Chengjin ignored her words, stood up and left the window directly, walked to the table in the room and continued to read, Cheng Xi knocked on the door when he saw this, and sat at the table with a cheeky face, she just picked up the book, Ji Chengjin walked outside the courtyard again, and she also carried her skirt and followed her outside the courtyard.
"Princess Mingruo, do you know how to write the four words shameless?" Ji Chengjin asked coldly.
"You know, I'll still write Courage." Cheng Xi saw that Ji Cheng was speechless, and continued with a smile, "I am a good student who will not give up until I reach my goal, so until the Hua Dynasty chess game, I borrowed Ji Gongzi's treasure to read books, you don't have to worry about me." ”
Streamer came back from outside, saw Cheng Xi sitting on the stone bench in the courtyard, almost suspected that he had gone to the wrong place, until Ji Chengjin appeared, he cautiously walked over to salute, just entered the room before he had time to ask, Cheng Xi took the book to ask questions, and the appearance of serious study made him demented for a long time and couldn't come back to his senses.
"It's quiet here, it's just right for this princess to cultivate herself, you are free." Cheng Xi took the princess's shelf, sat in Ji Chengjin's room, took a sip of tea with a moderate temperature, and said to the streamer who was standing aside and trembling.
Even if she said so, Ji Chengjin and Streamer couldn't get up at will, and they couldn't avoid this time bomb, so the master and servant had to look up at the sky in the courtyard, thinking about life brightly and sadly.
After this period of bad supplementation, her Go knowledge reserve and actual combat operations have improved by leaps and bounds, after bathing in incense, she is full of confidence, and rushed to the examination room with red leaves in a majestic manner.
How do you know that if Shen Rang is killed halfway, Cheng Xi can't figure it out, Jiang Jingxian didn't participate in the competition, so he came to join in the fun.
Shen Rang obviously saw her, and didn't turn a blind eye as usual, and walked straight over and mocked: "Since you quit the Huachao chess game, what are you going to do, do you want to stumble on a talented young lady?" ”
Cheng Xi thinks that she is a person with a good family education and noble character, and after she silently recited three times in her heart that the world is beautiful and she can't be irritable, she showed a business smile and casually greeted: "I didn't expect to meet Shen Xiaohou here." ”
Shen Rang looked at her with disgust, and said unforgivingly: "Even if you have self-knowledge, otherwise it will be a shame to participate." ”
Cheng Xi laughed after hearing this, and looked at Shen Rang's eyes full of pity, but she didn't answer, but sighed, turned her head to the red leaves behind her, and said, "You see that Shen Xiaohou is handsome and chic, it's just a pity......"
Momiji asked very cooperatively: "I don't know what the princess is sorry for?" ”
"It's a pity that he's not a dumb person."
Hongye couldn't help but hold back a smile after hearing this, Shen Rang listened to Cheng Xi's words to squeeze him, his face suddenly became gloomy, and there was a faint precursor to anger, Cheng Xi immediately raised his hand to stop him, took Hongye away, and then talked nonsense with Shen Rang, and he was going to find Ji Chengjin to return to blood.
Ignoring Shen Rang's anger behind her, she still spoke leisurely before leaving: "A qualified adult, first of all, you must learn to control your temper." ”
Because of the delay in meeting Shen Rang, when Cheng Xi arrived at the Guangde Palace, the game was already halfway through, and the Empress Dowager and Emperor Xiaowu saw that she was late, and hurriedly beckoned her to sit beside her, caring about the injury of her right leg.
Cheng Xi's left and right hands held the arms of the two of them respectively, and said with a sweet smile: "Grandmother and father, don't worry, I don't have to go out of the house to recuperate from my injuries, and now I'm alive again." ”
In order to reassure the two, she also stamped her feet to show that she was back to her senses.
was moving his muscles and bones, and saw Shen Rang walking in quickly and sitting aside, with an aura that no one should approach all over his body, and even Cheng Ying, who was sitting not far away, noticed something strange, and looked at her with questions in his eyes.
Cheng Xi pretended not to know and gave Cheng Ying a look back.
The queen mother grabbed Cheng Xi, who was moving, and couldn't help but feel distressed: "Even if the injury is healed, you have to recuperate for a little longer, look at you, why are you still thin, you are about to become someone else's daughter-in-law, and you don't know how to take good care of yourself." ”
After speaking, she glanced at the red leaves sternly.
Cheng Xi saw Hongye lowering his head in fear, so he took the initiative to explain that he wanted to keep in shape, diverted the topic before the queen mother reprimanded, and focused on the chess game of the flower dynasty.
While they were talking, the championship battle had already begun on the scene, and Cheng Xi recognized that the two chess players playing against each other were Jiang Yuxin, the daughter of the prime minister, and Du Yunyan, the daughter of the Ministry of Rites.
After the battle, Jiang Yuxin was white, won by a narrow margin of a quarter, and won the title of chess saint and talented woman.
Emperor Xiaowu looked at Prime Minister Jiang and praised: "The prime minister teaches his daughter well, the second sister of the Jiang family really deserves his reputation, today's chess game, I am deeply gratified, my Dayue is really a literary and martial strategy." ”
When Prime Minister Jiang and Jiang Yu heard this, they hurriedly saluted and thanked him.
Cheng Ying gestured to Cheng Xi, looked at Emperor Xiaowu and said unconvinced: "Your Majesty, Miss Jiang is really powerful, but Princess Mingruo won't lose to her, why don't you let the two of them compete?" ”
Those who know me, Cheng Yingye.
Cheng Xizheng didn't know how to show her chess skills, but she didn't expect Cheng Ying to pave the way for her, and she couldn't help but give Cheng Ying a thumbs up.
Emperor Xiaowu was in a good mood, and when he heard Cheng Ying's suggestion, he turned his head to look at Cheng Xi: "Previously, you took the initiative to withdraw from the game because of an injury, but now that everyone is here, it is better to make a move with the chess saint and the talented girl, just so that I and the Queen Mother can see your homework." ”
Cheng Xi studied so hard, wasn't it just for this day, but she still pretended to be embarrassed and looked at Jiang Yuxin, and lowered her head to think, until the queen mother spoke and urged, she seemed to have the courage to say: "Since it is the order of the emperor's grandmother and father, the ministers there are ugly." ”
After the two sat down face-to-face, Cheng Xi took a deep breath and smiled at Jiang Yuxin: "Miss Jiang can be merciful. ”
After the opening greeting, she got serious, took the black spot first, and gently placed it on the black spot in the upper left corner.
This trick is flying to defend the corner, and Jiang Yuxin uses it skillfully, indicating that she intends to avoid a head-on conflict with herself, but she can live in a corner, if she doesn't take precautions to let her set up a good situation, the consequences are unimaginable, Cheng Xi didn't think about it, and then twisted the black son and landed next to her white son.
This oppressive way of moving made Jiang Yu can't help but recall the events in the imperial garden, and he had an ominous premonition in his heart, and hurriedly disrupted the layout.
In the end, Cheng Xi became independent with a golden rooster, forcing Jiang Yu to have no way out, and took the lead in winning with 181 black chess, shocking the jaws of everyone present and looking at the chessboard.
The disbelief of everyone on the other side, Cheng Xi smiled faintly at Jiang Yuxin: "Miss Jiang has accepted." ”
