Xue Yan looked at the two men walking in the corridor, and reached out to poke Xiao Anzi beside her. He said, "Well, look, who are these two who have come?" It doesn't seem to be from your house, why did you come in without saying a word? ”

Xiao Anzi couldn't really see it because he was against the light, and when he put his hand on the pergola and looked carefully, he was surprised. I also saw Rong Ruo sitting upright in the pavilion, who happened to be facing away from the corridor, and the two of them were concentrating, where could they take care of these.

Xiao Anzi was in a hurry, and blurted out: "Oops, my father!" Why is this ancestor here at this time! Then he pulled his legs and galloped towards the Lushui Pavilion.

Running closer, Xiao Anzi didn't care about his steady breath, leaned over and whispered a few words in Rong Ruo's ear.

When Rong Ruo heard this, he hurriedly put down the chess pieces in his hand, and when he got up, Kangxi had already walked to the front of the Lushui Pavilion with Zhang Tingyu.

Rong Ruo took a step forward and bowed his hand, bowed down and said, "I don't know if the third master is coming to the house, and I will miss the welcome." ”

Rong Ruo suddenly got up and left, and the sleeves were also startled, and when he raised his eyes, he saw the two people walking in front of the pavilion, Huang Sanye, who was walking in front, was already very familiar with the sleeves, and he also got up to salute.

Although they are familiar with each other, Huai Sleeve wonders in his heart: how can these people not be bad, and they can enter and leave other people's houses at will as if they were their own, not to mention that this is still the mansion of the dignified Pearl Zaifu.

At this time, a bright halo crossed the eaves of the Lushui Pavilion, obliquely reflected on Huang Sanye's body, the sleeves were only dazzling, and he looked at Huang Sanye with his eyes, and saw that he was wearing today, wearing a lead-gray dark embroidered moire poplin gown, covered with a dark cyan Suzhou embroidered piping horse coat, wearing a round blue jade on the left side, a small embroidered purse hanging on the right side, and a pair of bright-edged thin-soled sandals on his feet. The figure is straight, the eyebrows are clear, and although the smile is sloppy, it is particularly windy.

Huai Sleeve couldn't help but sigh in his heart: Rong Ruo's friends are also similar to himself, regardless of character and temperament, they are all talented among people, and their bearing is extraordinary.

Kangxi waved his hand and smiled: "I'm just going to walk around casually and come in and take a look at you." When the words fell, his eyes happened to stop on the chessboard, and he smiled: "Heh, what about the game?" What a pleasure! ”

Kangxi walked to the chess table and leaned over to look at the next half of the chess game with great interest, and saw that it had just started, and the situation had not yet been divided. smiled and said: "I won't disturb your Yaxing, you go on, I will be a gentleman who watches chess and is silent." Kangxi said with a smile, and glanced at the sleeve standing by the chess table.

Huai Sleeve also happened to look at him, the two looked at each other, Huai Sleeve leaned over slightly, and gave Kangxi a salute, Kangxi smiled and nodded gently.

Zhang Tingyu walked over and looked at the chess game, and saw that it was a chess game that had just started, and he was afraid of sweeping Kangxi's interest, so he said: "It's boring to do it like this, it's better to put a subtle endgame out, and everyone will think about the art of returning to heaven together, which is more interesting." ”

"This game is fresh, since it is Tingyu's proposal, there must be a subtle game, you can put one out first and relieve our boredom." Kangxi said with a smile.

Rong Ruo and Huai Sleeve heard it and found it interesting, so they quickly put away the black and white chess pieces.

Zhang Tingyu didn't refuse, lowered his head and thought for a moment, and said with a smile: "I really saw a delicate endgame a few days ago, because I couldn't solve it for a while, so I paid attention to it and wrote it down, and now everyone will take a look at it together." ”

After speaking, he walked to the table, grabbed a black chess piece in his hand, and only heard a crisp "pop" sound, and the black agate chess pieces fell on the chessboard one by one. When it was young, the black chess arrangement stopped, Zhang Tingyu picked up the wooden box containing the white chess again, like the black zi, the white chess was also placed in the corresponding position one by one, and there were occasionally a few steps in the middle of the memory of the blurred, Zhang Tingyu paused and thought for a moment, and finally still put it out.

Standing aside, looking at the endgame that was gradually taking shape, I couldn't help but secretly admire Zhang Tingyu's strong memory, a whole game of chess, it can be completely imprinted in my mind, this is not something anyone can do. This person must be a good chess player, and he may be able to learn it today, so when he thought about it, Huai Sleeve suddenly became very interested.

"Done!" Zhang Tingyu dropped the last white piece on the chessboard, breathed a sigh of relief, and put the wooden chess box back in place.

"It's hard for you to remember!" Rong Ruo praised it from the bottom of his heart.

Kangxi also nodded with a smile while watching the chess game.

"It's worth it for me, a die-hard chess fan, to have fun with you, do you see if there is a solution to this endgame?" Zhang Tingyu smiled humbly, and several people gathered around the chess table.

The four people happened to sit in different directions, and when the maid served tea, the four of them were all focused intently on the chessboard, and for a while there was silence in the Lushui Pavilion, and the needles could be heard.

This game of chess has been played to the middle game, according to the chess face, the four corners of the white piece occupy the triangle, through the heart to meet, in the middle of the Tianyuan area more than 30 black children are besieged without help, there is no hope of survival, it can be said that the victory of white chess has been decided.

Kangxi frowned and scrutinized it carefully, feeling that this was not like an endgame, and the victory or defeat was clearly decided.

Rong Ruo first picked a black piece, in order to prevent the white chess from invading the last corner, and now the star position is a sharp step back. He threw this chess piece, Kangxi didn't feel anything, but Huai Sleeve and Zhang Tingyu shook their heads at the same time.

"Looks like you two have a good idea." Rong Ruo said with a smile.

Zhang Tingyu smiled and threw another white chess piece at the fork.

Rong Ruo saw that Zhang Tingyu was about to sit down in the middle, he was a little anxious, so he suddenly became murderous, and concentrated his forces to besiege and planned to save part of it first, but he didn't think about it, but Zhang Tingyu moved a few steps lightly, and penetrated deep into the hinterland, Bai Zi easily escaped, seeing that he was going to be connected to the general trend, Rong Ruodun had a sense of hopelessness for victory, and couldn't help laughing, "It seems that it has reached a dead end." ”

Zhang Tingyu also smiled: "Brother Rong's chess style has always been calm, and today he lost the black chess, and the murderous intention was too heavy, Brother Rong forgot the sentence 'Those who are weak and do not lie down are more bent, and those who are impatient and seek victory are more defeated'"

Huai Sleeve had already come up with some eyebrows just now, seeing that Rong Ruo had voted first, he was watching the battle, and seeing that Rong Ruo was indeed a little anxious to win, she was anxious for a long time, at this time she heard a few words from Zhang Tingyu, and she wanted to relieve Rong Ruo, and said with a smile: "I heard that this benevolent brother is also full of poetry and books, don't you hear that there are also clouds in the Book of Changes, if you are poor, you will change, and if you change, you will be able to pass for a long time, Rong Gongzi is going to admit defeat by himself, and the battle situation on the plate in front of him is not yet known!" ”

As soon as Huai Sleeve said this, the three big men sitting opposite him were all surprised.

Kangxi also carefully examined the chessboard, and felt that the black chess really had no chance of winning, but he didn't expect Huai Sleeve to make such a sure victory, squinted his eyes, and looked at Huai Sleeve carefully. He said with a gentle smile: "It seems that Huai Gongzi is confident, please give me some advice." ”
