"It's really grinding, and I ate all the rice with the ladies. A jelly bean, you're polite again. If we don't want to eat it, we won't give it, and we didn't bring much. "Yama Xing is going to put away the jelly beans. Wan'er's two maids hurried over and each took a jelly bean to eat.

"Now is a special period, and the rules and regulations will be put down for the time being. Let's go out together. Bai Yang said with a smile, glancing at Huang Rong and them by the way.

Huang Rong's master and servant are unnaturally certain, and they know it when they are countercalculated by Poplar. When he didn't come, he fought with the elders of the family, but he was a little woman who spoke softly. was also ridiculed and reprimanded, even his father and mother also have to rely on the family. Besides, the family sent a maid and a mother-in-law. Even if you don't agree with it, it won't help.

Seeing Baiyang, Huang Rong has been in conflict. She felt sorry for Poplar and the friendship she had made in the knockout round. had to be silent to express his resistance to his family. Now that the boat has finally capsized, their hands itch because they have touched the poison, and they are itching all over their bodies, because they have helped them dress up. She vaguely felt that the jelly bean was the antidote. But I didn't have the face to speak, so I could only endure it secretly, hoping that it would be fine after washing up.

Bai Wan'er didn't know that the jelly beans she ate were the antidote. It wasn't until they said itchy that she felt a little uncomfortable changing into the clothes given by her sister. After eating jelly beans, it was completely fine. She wanted to ask but didn't dare to ask, which made Poplar feel funny when she saw it.

"Wan'er, why don't you grow up? Rely on my father and mother at home, and rely on my sister when I go out. When will you be able to live for yourself? Poplar said with a pun.

"Sister, when I have your ability, I won't rely on you."

"Skills are accumulated little by little, first of all, you have to be tough yourself, so that others can see your determination. Okay, learn to understand something, and ask them to serve you to wash and sleep. ”

At this time, the maid brought by Huang Rong also knew that she was calculated by Baiyang. had no choice but to take the family's money, and he could only consider himself unlucky.

There are also the emperor and the queen who consider themselves unlucky. Seeing that the finals are coming, and Poison Zun has not come back for a long time. The queen could only use the poison she had saved before through secret channels and mixed it with the boiled tonic that the concubines had given to the white emperor. I have to say that the queen is familiar with these things when she does them, and even if the matter is revealed, she can't be found. The emperor took every precaution, but he still followed the queen's way. On the first day of the finals, he was already groggy and just wanted to sleep. And the queen still counted herself in the calculations, the emperor has a small group that develops poisons, and the queen does not know. And in that small group, there were guards in Fengyi Palace. As a result, the poison developed by the small group was so flawed that the queen just drank a cup of petal tea. Just like the emperor, he can't wake up.

The prince is not very clear about the things in the harem. The emperor's illness is exactly what he wants, and although the queen is sick, he is distracted even if he thinks about it. Once the finals start, the full clockwork gear can't stop, and can only turn to the head. The second day was the most tedious project of the competition: piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. It is also the most important thing for people with intentions to calculate and plot with Poplar the greatest chance of winning. These tests were enough to pull Poplar's score down. However, a beggar background, it is instinct to earn silver. As for what happened in the Hades Palace, he would make dim sum, and now he has come up with a duck down production process. Not many people take it to heart either. If she met someone with some ability when she was begging, she was hit by her blind cat and hit a dead mouse. It's more reliable to learn a little bit of ability.

The second day's competition was played in several events at the same time. The stepped platform is lined with tables, which seem to be preparations for playing chess, calligraphy and painting.

The young ladies who participated in the finals gathered together as usual to listen to the old lady explain the rules of the competition. Before the old lady came, the ladies began to talk to each other in a whisper.

"Qin, chess, calligraphy and painting, why don't you see the place where the instrument is played, could it be another surprise attack at the end?" A young lady who was obviously highly accomplished in musical instruments asked with a little disappointment.

"Who knows? I thought the knockout rounds would be amazing enough. I didn't expect the finals to be like this, and the cards were not played according to common sense, and the real skills of people were not considered. It's a strange thing that comes out of it. ”

"Other sports can be like that, but chess is different. Even if it is eliminated in pairs, the result may not be comparable at the end of the day. Are you all wearing cotton suits? Sitting outside playing chess on this cold day also froze people's wisdom away.

"yes, I haven't really thought about it. Calligraphy and painting are not the same yet. It is estimated that the ink may freeze halfway through drawing and writing. ”

"Sister, fortunately, we wore the clothes you gave me with duck down. Otherwise, you'll be really inspired. Bai Wan'er also whispered to Bai Yang.

"Wan'er, my sister will make a bet with you, the table we saw just now must be used to test chess skills. As for calligraphy and painting, we can't think of it with common sense. Don't say that we can't stand the cold, even people who watch the excitement will get frostbite. ”

"Sister, Wan'er believes what you speculated. But if you don't compete in twos, how can you see chess skills? ”

"There must be a way, but we haven't thought of it yet. The old lady hasn't come yet, she must be arranging the following competition. ”

"Why hasn't the old lady come yet? If we had known that, we would have sat in the room a little longer. "The ladies are a little bored and a little restless.

"Second Miss, the slave sneaks out to help you take a sneak peek. I saw a few maids go out. One of Wan'er's maids suggested.

"Don't make trouble for your second lady, whoever likes to go out will go out." Shanhua said with a straight face.

"That's it, don't make random claims, haven't you seen my sister's maids haven't moved?" Wan'er also said.

The wait was a bit long. The maid who went out did not come back, and a few young ladies who couldn't sit still also sneaked out. But they saw no one going out, but not one of them returned. The corners of Poplar's lips rose slightly, and he really guessed by himself again. The chess competition has not yet begun, and it is estimated that the young lady who went out has no score.

At last the old lady came in, and it seemed that she had been standing outside for a long time. She glanced at the sparse palace, and then swept around again, and said coldly with a face full of waiting for the impatient young lady.

"The young lady who sneaked out and the young lady who sent the next person out, the score of this chess competition is zero. You are all smart young ladies, and each of these competitions has started since the time you were notified. Now Mama Ben will talk about the rules of the chess competition.

On the table outside, there is a deck of broken or dead pieces. The consideration of you is to bring the chess pieces on the table to life. Which lady has the most chess tables is the winner. 10 points for 1st place, 9 points for 2nd place, and so on, and a young lady who has not been alive in a game of chess will also get one point. This is a commendation for your patience and determination. The time of the competition is one hour, and when the gong sounds, you have half an hour to observe and choose. ”

"Mama, can people participate in the chess competition?" A young lady asked with the audacity to ask.

"You can participate, and you are also allowed to study each other. As long as you feel that your chess skills are not as good as a maid, you can ask them for advice. It's not a foul and no points are deducted. As soon as the old lady finished speaking, she remembered the sound of the gong outside, and the ladies rushed to the outside competition venue.

Sure enough, some of the remnants and dead chess pieces have been placed outside, and the eunuchs in the palace are still continuing to place them according to the chess score. There are also twenty or thirty tables that have been set up.

Bai Yang just smiled clearly, just now she had already thought that the chess competition was definitely not a two-by-two duel. Seeing the chess games already laid out on the table below, her mind entered the bookstore in the space. Soon found the best revitalization technique of black and white chess. I really found the exact same black-and-white fight endgame on the table on it. Correspondingly, there is also a guide to the skills of revitalization. The instant cheat space is turned on in open mode.

Half an hour was coming soon, and the young ladies were dazzled and had not yet chosen the chessboard gong that they thought was easy. Like a horn of charge, some young ladies rushed out, and some young ladies were still waiting and hesitating.

"Sister, are you good at chess? I still haven't understood a game of chess. ”

"Wan'er, my sister is not very good at chess. But my sister understands that black and white chess is like two armies against each other, and we are the generals sitting in the town. Strategize and lay out smartly. This one, my sister can't help you. My sister is going down to play chess. After saying that, Poplar came to the nearest table, where there was a young lady, and after a few glances, he left. Poplar walked over with a thoughtful look, but his mind turned over the remnants of the chess skills in the space. Soon I found the one that was exactly the same as the one on the table. With no more than a stick of incense in his hand, Poplar left the table. The old man in charge of the invigilation looked at the departing poplar with a stupid expression. The shock in his heart made the old man almost unsteady. This is a dead game of chess in which black and white are deadlocked, and whichever side moves loses first. This white lady just made a few moves behind the black and white colors. The game ended with a big win for Black.

"Clever, clever!" The old man shouted loudly, held up the red sign symbolizing life, and handed it to the maid of the poplar.

Poplar didn't look at the game again, and walked to another table to continue hanging. It took about the same amount of time as just now, and the game came alive. In the end, white won, and black lost miserably. The invigilator was also an old man, and he actually bowed to the back of the poplar. There was another red sign in the poplar maid's hand.
