There are naturally many masters who are good at this among the people who are attached to the prince and King Shou's party, so King Shou's proposal is just to let the people on the prince's side see what strength their people have, so as to frustrate their spirit.

"It's so boring to just play chess, there was Xie Anshi Go gambling villa in ancient times, why don't we also follow Xie Anshi to gamble on something interesting?" The prince smiled and spoke, but there was a hint of coldness in his eyes.

"What does the imperial brother want to bet on" King Shou looked at the prince with a trace of doubt in his eyes and asked, "I'll gamble with you." ”

The prince slapped his palms and smiled, his gaze wandering to Xie Yaoguang. Then he said loudly, "Since Miss Xie is talented. If you want to come to qin, chess, calligraphy and painting, it is not a problem for you. If the palace wins, Miss Xie will make a painting and give it to the palace, okay? If you win, this palace will give you a big gift. ”

Sure enough, as soon as the prince's words fell, everyone present was stunned. Rao is King Shou's face was also gloomy and terrible at the moment, and his eyes were full of disdain when he looked at the prince.

On the contrary, Xie Yaoguang, who was the party concerned, raised his eyes and looked at the prince lazily, as if he was smiling.

How could she not know the prince's thoughts?

"It's just a painting, why bother so much with the royal brother? Miss Xie is a guest of this dynasty and not a painter, isn't the imperial brother afraid that his father will know about insulting Miss Xie like this? King Shou thought for a moment, and looked at the smiling prince with a chill on his face.

"What is humiliation? Miss Xie can't make a picture for this palace! Besides, since you said that it was just a painting, what did it matter if you asked Miss Xie to paint for the palace, not to mention that Miss Xie herself wouldn't mind, right? With a glance at King Shou, there was a hint of impatience in the prince's tone, "According to the palace, it is better to let Miss Xie make her own decision." ”

As soon as he finished saying this, the prince left and looked at Xie Yaoguang on the side gently, with an inexplicable look in his eyes. When everyone present heard the words of King Shou and the prince, they felt more and more that the prince came up with such an idea because he coveted Xie Yaoguang's beauty.

And King Shou, as a righteous gentleman, naturally can't get used to the prince's actions, so he spoke out to defend Xie Yaoguang, and the two phases are more princely than the prince.

The prince is still slightly inferior in character.

"If you want to learn Xie Anshi's Go gambling villa, it's not impossible. It's just that Yaoguang thinks that we might as well set the stakes higher, and Yaoguang wants to take half of the Xie family's shop in the capital as a bet. Xie Yaoguang swept the prince's stunned face, and the corners of his mouth hooked up a sneer: "If Yaoguang loses, he will give this half of the shop to the other party." ”

The Xie family has strong financial resources and is well known in the calendar. Half of the income of the shop in Guangjing City can already be called a rich man, if Xie Yaoguang gambles with this, I am afraid that if he loses to her, he will have to pay a lot of price.

"And what if we lose? Wouldn't it be a lot of money? Someone in the crowd retorted loudly.

Xie Yaoguang replied with a smile, "You guys look at it." ”

Hearing this, Ye Linchen looked at Xie Yaoguang, who looked indifferent, and pursed his thin lips slightly.

"Since Miss Xie has spoken, how can this king refuse. Why don't you be alone with everyone on the field? The prince looked at Xie Yaoguang with a smile, with a full taste of victory in his eyes, as if the end was doomed at this moment.

Xie Yaoguang nodded, the smile in his eyes getting deeper and deeper.

With a limit of one stick of incense, if there is no one who can beat Xie Yaoguang and Xie Yaoguang when the incense burns out, a cadre who plays chess with Xie Yaoguang will give Xie Yaoguang a big gift, if someone can beat Xie Yaoguang before the incense burns out, half of the Xie family's shop will belong to that person.

After the chess game was set up, Xie Yaoguang looked at the group of people who came up to talk one by one.

Seeing that the time for half a pillar of incense had passed, no one could beat Xie Yaoguang. The prince's face began to become a little anxious, while King Shou looked at Xie Yaoguang with a smile. Xie Yaoguang is really amazing, but fortunately, she chose herself, otherwise such an opponent is really terrifying.

Seeing that Ye Linchen had been silent, King Shou smiled and said, "Linchen, what do you think of Miss Xie?" ”

"I played chess very well."

Ye Linchen's words made King Shou stunned. King Shou secretly said in his heart, I naturally know that Xie Yaoguang plays chess very well, but his face has not changed and he still smiled: "Linchen, you are not small." There should be a woman in the house, too. Miss Xie, she ......"

"Brother Huang, you know that this king has always been entangled in military affairs. I don't have the time to pay attention to these children's affections. Besides, I don't like her, she's full of scheming. Ye Linchen glanced at King Shou and scolded unceremoniously

"Hey, I'm confused." Hearing this, King Shou suppressed the anger that almost erupted in his heart and smiled: "The little ladies in Nanke Lou are all stunning, Brother Gai Ming'er invites you to sit down?" ”

Hearing this, Xie Yaoguang looked up at Ye Linchen, who had a hidden anger on his face, and couldn't help but feel funny. King Shou actually dared to invite Ye Linchen to visit the Qinglou, but she was a little looking forward to Ye Linchen's appearance of going to Nanke Building.

Thinking of this, Xie Yaoguang turned his head to look at Ye Linchen and smiled at him, his lips opened slightly, and he said a good word silently. Ye Linchen originally wanted to refuse, when he saw Xie Yaoguang's mouth shape. Although he was puzzled, he still agreed to King Shou's invitation.

A stick of incense was finally burned out, and Xie Yaoguang still had not tasted defeat. The prince's face became more and more embarrassed, but King Shou looked proud. However, at this moment, a young man ran into the water pavilion and swept past the eyes of everyone present, falling on the prince, and said something in the prince's ear.

The prince's originally embarrassed face turned into joy. Xie Yaoguang looked at the change in the prince's face, and the corners of his mouth hooked up with a touch of coldness. It seems that the prince has already gotten the news, and I hope the prince will not disappoint him.

"There are still some important things to be taken care of in the hands of this king, and you can leave on your own. Since Miss Xie has won, the rest of the matter will be handled by you, Brother Lao Huang. After a polite gesture, the prince left with the little servant just now.

King Shou looked at the direction in which the prince left, and then looked at Xie Yaoguang with deep meaning in his eyes, a thought passed through his mind, and it seemed that Xie Yaoguang would give him a big gift. According to the previous rules, Xie Yaoguang won and those who played chess with her would give Xie Yaoguang a big gift, but he caught a glimpse of Xie Yaoguang and did not mean to accept the gift, although he felt strange, but he still told those who were with Xie Yaoguang not to forget that they still owed Xie Yaoguang a gift.

Since this day, Xie Yaoguang has become famous in the banquet set by the prince, and the market has become more and more mysterious about Xie Yaoguang.

Even Emperor Li summoned Xie Yaoguang into the palace from time to time to play chess with him, or to compete with the chess doctor in the palace. Every time Xie Yaoguang won easily. Emperor Li naturally praised Xie Yaoguang's chess skills.
