Yi Xiangxiang, who was eager to try, seemed to be here to play a very ordinary game, and her relaxed attitude made Tian Feng not particularly confident.

He saw Yi Xiangxiang walk into the concave table and sit down leisurely in the red sandalwood circle chair inside. And he was obviously standing, he looked at Yi Xiangxiang from a high position, but the sense of oppression caused by the other party made him even more nervous.

"Lord Tian don't be nervous, this palace said, you can choose any helper. Of course, it's okay for someone to volunteer! Yi Xiangxiang said smugly.

So at this time, Lin Zhimeng also walked down slowly: "Does the queen mean that even if there is only one person playing chess with you, the spectators watching chess can also give guidance?" ”

Yi Xiangxiang nodded: "This is natural, not only can you instruct, but if the two pillars of incense are defeated, you can also change people and open another plate." ”

Everyone sighed, not to mention anything else, just looking at Yi Xiangxiang's arrogant and complacent attitude, the other party had already won a cut in momentum.

Nangong Ge, the young island owner of Sanssouci Island, also came over to make fun: "Then how is this poem played?" ”

"This is simple, spring, summer, autumn and winter flowers and trees, the questioner takes the materials to teach, and the same is how to come out!" Yi Xiangxiang doesn't care about the stall hand, it means that you are happy.

She looked at Nangong Ge while spreading her hands, staring at the other party's bewitching peach blossom eyes to admire.

Well, it looks better up close! Yi Xiangxiang thought so.

Beautiful man, beautiful man!

Yi Xiangxiang secretly sighed why this is not an era of women, otherwise she can fight to be the empress, then all beautiful men can be encircled in her harem.

It's a pity, it's a pity!

Just when Yi Xiangxiang wanted to get into trouble, Ye Sheng came over and said goodbye to Nangong Ge, and the two of them made two moves in a flash.

Yesheng, who squeezed away Nangong Ge, asked Yi Xiangxiang: "What about the painting?" ”

The characteristics of the iceberg beauty man, when speaking to outsiders, he can say two words and never spit out three words.

"Paint, feel free! Why don't you set a topic for the prince at night? Although it is an iceberg face, Yi Xiangxiang still gives face to beautiful men.

"The world." Yesheng didn't take Qiao either, and threw down three words very willfully.

Yi Xiangxiang has already asked someone to move the incense burner and plug in the incense, and Wen Yan replied: "Okay, then the world!" Then she turned her head to look at Tian Feng and continued: "Lord Tian, can it be arranged?" ”

The onlookers who came over one after another all aimed their eyes at Tian Feng.

At this time, Tian Feng felt a trace of sweat behind him, although this competition had not yet started, he already regretted his impulsiveness.

However, he had to send the arrow, he bowed towards Lin Zhimeng: "I heard that the concubine Niangniang is good at piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, why don't you come and play a game with the queen?" ”

Originally, if Yi Xiangxiang didn't say that she wanted to put Tian Yao in the position of a virtuous concubine, Tian Feng would not become a solo individual now, but could calmly let everyone compare together. But Yi Xiangxiang said that, and this matter became a contest between the queen and the Tian family, and very few people were willing to stand up.

But very little, just because it doesn't mean there isn't.

Tian Feng has been in the officialdom for many years, and he has in-laws or friendships with many families, so he will not be isolated.

For example, the Lin family of the Prime Minister's Mansion, they and the Tian family are grasshoppers on the same rope, otherwise Lin Chong would not have spoken for Tian Feng just now.

Lin Zhimeng has no reason to be undeserved, and the purpose of her coming down is to be instructed by Lin Chong. And today, her grandfather Lin Zhen didn't come to the palace banquet because of the cold, and her father Lin Chong was choked by Yi Xiangxiang just now, and she wanted to get back to the field.

In fact, if Tian Feng hadn't done this, she wouldn't have planned to show her face today, after all, she had a conflict with Yi Xiangxiang in the garden a while ago, and she still fell behind. Because of this, she didn't confront Yi Xiangxiang too much just now. But now that Tian Feng has set up the stage again, she can't let Yi Xiangxiang be in the limelight again.

"Lord Tian has an overreputation, and this palace only knows a little bit about it." Lin Zhimeng smiled gently and virtuously: "Queen Mother, the concubine has never played against Niangniang, I don't know if I have this honor today?" ”

Yi Xiangxiang often summoned Su Jingxiang to Changchun Palace to play these days, but there was no word that the former was superb in chess, because Lin Zhimeng had the confidence to win Yi Xiangxiang.

"Yes." Yi Xiangxiang also smiled back to Lin Zhimeng, and stretched out her hand to ask the latter to sit down.

Concubine Tian Yao also slowly stood up from the palace concubine's seat at this time, she walked down and said: "The queen mother should be careful, the chess skills of the concubine are admired even by the masters of Shenghong Academy." ”

"Concubine, don't worry, if this palace loses, it will definitely let the saint promote your position, and this palace will not cheat! Rest assured! Yi Xiangxiang pretended to appease, but in fact, she deliberately embarrassed Tian Yao.

Tian Yao could only hold her breath and stomp her feet, and then stood behind Lin Zhimeng.

Tian Feng saw that his daughter was angry again, and strengthened his determination to provoke Yi Xiangxiang. And after Lin Zhimeng sat down in the circle chair outside the chess case, he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

Lin Zhimeng's chess skills are indeed obvious to all, and in his opinion, this game is stable.

However, since he said that it was a comparison, he would not give Yi Xiangxiang a chance to relax, after all, it was Yi Xiangxiang who proposed this game, and he had no reason to give up. And in his opinion, he can use paintings and poems to distract Yi Xiangxiang's attention, and it can also better ensure Lin Guifei's chance of winning. And when he was thinking about who to invite to compare paintings with Yi Xiangxiang, Dongyu, the prince of the little Dongguo in the guest seat, volunteered.

"Xiao Wang wants to have a discussion with the queen!" Dongyu said with a smile on his face.

Yi Xiangxiang looked at the notorious prince of the little Dongguo, although she didn't pay attention to Dongyu when she paid tribute to the Li Dynasty on behalf of his little Dongguo just now, she felt that the other party was not very comfortable, why did she jump out at this time?

Dongyu was indeed a little embarrassed before, he was afraid that Zhao Ziqian would embarrass him because An Jinquan asked him to marry Yi Xiangxiang before. But later he found out that people didn't take it seriously at all, and since the palace banquet began, he found that everyone hadn't paid much attention to him, and the little prince of Dongguo, who was unwilling to be lonely, naturally wanted to make trouble.

"Prince Dongyu also loves to paint? This palace thinks that the prince should be a lover of beauty! Yi Xiangxiang teased.

It is rumored that Prince Dongyu of Xiaodongguo is a ruthless person, and he likes to play with arrogant beauties in his life, and he has killed countless women. Yi Xiangxiang looked at the person wearing the blue Yunxiang Fu Bat pattern suit who walked in front of him, and the appearance of the high-spirited young man was not as ruthless as the rumors.

Yi Xiangxiang wasn't sure if she could see people accurately, after all, she just looked away from Miaoqin before. But the form and temperament of this Dongyu in front of him is really hard to make people think that this is a bad person.

And Yi Xiangxiang thinks that her reputation is also very bad, so she doesn't believe in the things that are rumored in the market.

However, no matter what kind of person Dongyu is, jumping out at this time to pay attention to the heat, Yi Xiangxiang still naturally ridiculed Dongyu.

Dongyu was stunned, he didn't expect Yi Xiangxiang to speak so tabooly, so he smiled and said: "The queen is lonely, Xiao Wang's paintings are worth a thousand gold in Xiaodongguo!" ”

Tian Feng didn't wait for Yi Xiangxiang to speak, and hurriedly said: "It is also a blessing for Sansheng to be able to see Prince Dongyu waving. ”

Yi Xiangxiang wanted to roll her eyes, but seeing that there were already many people around the table, she held back her indecent movements and said, "Then Prince Dongyu, please." ”

She agreed to draw with Dong Woo.

The piano and the painting are settled, and as for the poem, the title is very simple. Although Tian Feng thinks that he has no literary talent, he still can't be difficult for him to pick up a topic to teach casually.

So, Yi Xiangxiang raised his hand and asked the little eunuch to light the incense, and the contest really began.

She got up and walked to the chess case, stretched out her hand and asked Lin Zhimeng to leave her first son: "Lin Guifei, please!" ”

Lin Zhimeng didn't give in, and very calmly chose the black chess piece and dropped a piece on the chessboard.

The beauty holds the jade chess with a slender hand, and there is a gentle smile in the calmness of the falling pieces, so Lin Zhimeng's side naturally becomes a beautiful landscape.

Yi Xiangxiang also admired Lin Zhimeng's beauty, but at the same time, she didn't drag her feet, I saw that she also took out the chess pieces from the jade jar and put them on the chessboard.

For a while, the two of them almost didn't have to think about it, and the chessboard had already started an orderly battle in chaos. At the beginning, both sides were very comfortable, but it was only a cup of tea, and Lin Zhimeng's side stagnated.

Black has gradually lost ground from the initial steady win, and has lost the upper hand.

After everyone saw that Yi Xiangxiang had another son, they turned around to paint. However, she left the whole painting case to Dongyu, and she asked Qing Xuan to choose some color ink, smoke and pine ink and xuan pen and put them on the bookcase, and said to Tian Feng at the same time: "Lord Tian, let's solve the question!" ”

Lord Tian was still in the surprise that the sunspot had fallen, and after hearing Yi Xiangxiang's words, he saw Lin Zhimeng falling, so he hurriedly said: "Peony!" ”

This question came out casually because he saw Lin Zhimeng lose chess and was anxious to interrupt Yi Xiangxiang's train of thinking about playing chess.

How did he know that Yi Xiangxiang's poems were all memorized! There is no interruption of any train of thought at all.

Yi Xiangxiang was really not in a hurry at all, she held a xuan pen in her right hand and calmly turned around and looked at the chessboard, and "composed a poem" at the same time: "The peony demon in front of the court is unqualified, and the pond is pure and affectionate." Only the peony is true to the national color, and the flowers move the capital when they bloom. ”

Then she turned back to paint, and it really didn't waste any time, as if she was the one who beat the other party in a hurry. And her whole action was smooth, and she instantly captured the hearts of many noble women present!

In the palace banquet of the Li Dynasty, the princes and ministers can bring their relatives and family members to attend together, because there are many famous daughters present.

The queen is too domineering! This is the OS in the hearts of some noble women.

Of course, the other part of the noble girls are fans of Lin Zhimeng, and they only think that Yi Xiangxiang is pretentious.

But no matter what these other nobles think, the vast majority of people present were a little stunned, because they didn't expect this way to play.

Seeing that there was no movement, Yi Xiangxiang looked up and said to Tian Feng, "Why are you stunned?" Go on! This palace can only give you two pillars of incense. ”

After finishing speaking, she lowered her head and continued to paint, and after hearing the sound of Lin Zhimeng's falling son on the other side, she didn't forget to add her own chess pieces.

Although Tian Feng has no talent in poetry, he nods frequently when he looks at the people who come over, and even the boss Duan Hongzhen of the Winning Kingdom Mansion shows appreciation, and he also knows that Yi Xiangxiang's poem is good.

He was a bit blind and wanted to think of a tricky topic, but he couldn't.

"Only the peony is true to the country, and the flowers move the capital when they bloom? The queen's poem is indeed atmospheric, but it blocks the way of other flowers! "It was Prime Minister Lin Chong who spoke.

Lin Chong's words made Tian Feng have an idea: "Peony!" ”

Didn't you say that the peony demon is unqualified? Then give you a peony! Tian Feng was very proud.

Yi Xiangxiang slandered when she heard this: Two old foxes!

"Peony is a spring pet, and he once envied the peony. Mai Qiu can be a few days, and Gu Yu is only slightly cold. Jealousy is frequent, and delicate makeup is crippled. Hibiscus is accompanied by a yarn, and the long hatred is separated by waves. After Yi Xiangxiang chanted this song "Peony", she turned around again to face Lin Zhimeng, and then turned back to Lin Chong and Tian Feng and said: "I have never envied the peony!" ”

Her joking tone was arrogant and cute, and people couldn't help but laugh. Even Dongyu, the little prince of Dongguo, who was painting on the side, raised his head when he heard the words and laughed.

Luo Baohua on the side hurriedly accosted: "The queen mother is really talented!" After speaking, I didn't want to give Yi Xiangxiang a look and ask for praise.

Yi Xiangxiang didn't make eye contact with him, there was still a Zhao Ziqian sitting above, she wanted to be a queen mother who abided by women's morals.

Hehe, I don't know who stared at Nangong Ge just now! Luo Baohua, who knew Yi Xiangxiang Xiao Jiujiu, was slandered.

Yi Xiangxiang didn't know that her image in Luo Baohua's heart was so inconsistent, she continued to hold the Xuan pen to paint, and no longer reminded Tian Feng that she only gave two pillars of incense time anyway.

She didn't remind her, but Tian Feng decided not to flow the gap, and only heard him say: "Plum blossom! ”

"The wind and rain send spring back, and the snow welcomes spring. It is already a cliff with a hundred feet of ice, and there are still flowers and branches. Pretty doesn't compete for spring, only reports spring. When the mountains were full of flowers, she laughed in the bushes. ”

"Lotus...... Lotus! ”

"I often remember the twilight of the Creek Pavilion, and I don't know the way back. Returning to the boat at night, he strayed into the depths of the lotus flower. Fighting, fighting, startling a shoal of gulls and herons. ”

......

At this palace banquet, Yi Xiangxiang "composed" more than 20 poems. Starting from spring, summer, autumn and winter, flowers and trees, to the end of mountains, rivers, lakes, seas, birds and animals, all of them are called wonderful! And these poems were also recited after tonight, and the name of Yi Xiangxiang, the queen's mother, officially broke away from the label of no talent and no virtue.

From this day on, the Yi family has also been named a scholarly family from a despised merchant background!

Duan Yi rubbed and rubbed in the crowd, rubbed to Yi Luochuan's side, he pushed Yi Luochuan with his elbow and said, "Heh, your sister is really amazing!" It's much more interesting than the three-step poem and seven-step poem you showed back then! You see, no matter what question Tian Feng has, she can pick it up! On the contrary, the people who can solve the problem are exhausted! ”

Since Yi Luochuan worshipped Duan Hongzhen as his teacher, he and Duan Yi have gradually become close friends, which is why the latter would be so familiar with him to whisper to him.

Although it was a whisper, many people heard it because of the proximity.

Luo Baohua, who was standing next to Yi Luochuan, had known Duan Yi since he was a child, and after hearing the latter's words, he didn't wait for Yi Luochuan to speak first, and said, "It's not!" No wonder she didn't go to Shenghong Academy back then, she was so fierce, who could teach her! ”

At this point, Yi Xiangxiang is already the winner of the poem, after all, even the question maker has begun to get stuck. Many people were amazed by the ability of the queen's mother, Yi Xiangxiang, to compose poetry, and even her brother Yi Luochuan wanted to fight poetry with his sister.

I didn't expect this little girl to pretend to be so long! Yi Luochuan, who has always been steady, also secretly slandered.

Lin had already guessed this result, she had heard her daughter compose poems when she was a child, but her daughter had always been very low-key. But at this time, she saw the expressions of those ladies who could stuff an egg in their mouths, and she was also very proud in her heart.

Yi Xiangxiang didn't care about the scrutiny in everyone's eyes, and still did her own thing. And Lin Zhimeng, who was still playing chess, was soaked with light sweat on her forehead, and it was really the first time she had seen such a tricky play.

Yi Xiangxiang's chess is the same as herself, and she does not play cards according to the routine, and at the beginning of the game, Lin Zhi dreamed that she fell out of order, but she didn't expect her black spot to fall in a blink of an eye.

The point is that while arguing with her in chess, Yi Xiangxiang has already won the poetry competition! This made Lin Zhimeng's heart upset, and his thoughts on playing chess were even broken!

It's hard for yourself, but it's so easy for the other party! Lin Zhimeng was annoyed.

While Lin Zhimeng was annoyed but still had to keep smiling, Duan Hongzhen spoke: "The queen is brilliant, if she is a man, the Yi family will have more than one champion!" ”

Duan Hongzhen, the old lady of the Winning Mansion, is a relatively prestigious predecessor present, and as the former first assistant, he is still a famous talent back then, so naturally no one will question his words.

Of course, his praise is also very high! Let everyone present be secretly shocked.

Duan Yi rubbed it again and came to Duan Hongzhen's side: "Then according to grandpa, how is the queen mother's game of chess?" ”

As soon as his words fell, everyone made way for Duan Hongzhen's ancestors and grandchildren, and let them go directly to the chess case.

"The concubine is gentle but comprehensive, but the queen seems to have no city, but in fact, she has turned a thousand times! Both of them are good chess players! ”

Duan Hongzhen is very cunning, and no one can be offended.

Yi Xiangxiang secretly rolled her eyes: It's an old fox again! Obviously, this palace is going to win, okay!

With a flash of inspiration, Yi Xiangxiang smiled secretly.

"Master Duan's praise, I heard that the boss also loves chess, why don't you come and kill a game?" She said.

It's not interesting to win Lin Zhimeng, but if you can win Duan Hongzhen, you will be in the limelight!

Yi Xiangxiang's words made everyone think that she was giving Lin Zhimeng another step, after all, anyone who knows a little bit of chess knows that if this game of chess continues, Lin Zhimeng will definitely lose.

Everyone also felt that Lin Zhimeng might as well stop there, and it could be regarded as a tie on face.

Of course, no one knows that Yi Xiangxiang is not worried that Lin Zhimeng can't afford to lose, it's just that she doesn't want to waste time on a game of chess without suspense, and even wants to use Duan Hongzhen as a "stepping stone"!

Lin Zhimeng was very scratching her liver, and it was indeed her best choice to stop here, but she was not so willing to "abdicate and make way for Xian", so she hesitated for a while.

Duan Hongzhen is indeed a smart person, although he is optimistic about the Yi family, he has no idea of offending the Lin family, so he smiled and said to Lin Zhimeng: "I wonder if the concubine is willing to give the old man a scene?" ”

On the surface, he asked Lin Zhimeng to give way as an elder, but in fact, he also helped Lin Zhimeng save some face. However, he was indeed hooked by Yi Xiangxiang for chess.

Speaking of which, almost all the old men of their generation have fallen into the ground, and the rest of them are all stinky chess baskets! It's been a long time since he's played against an opponent.

Yi Xiangxiang's tricky way of moving chess really made Duan Hongzhen want to come and kill a game.

Duan Hongzhen said this, and Lin Zhimeng naturally stood up: "The queen's chess skills are superb, and there is really no need for the concubines in this game to play again." Please, sir, but you have to frustrate the spirit of the queen! ”

Lin Zhimeng smiled skillfully, and her tone was still coquettish with seven points of jokes.

She was reluctant to admit defeat just now, but after thinking about it for a while, she still decided to generously admit that her skills were inferior.

After all, it's better than others saying behind her back that she can't afford to lose, and asking the queen to hand over the steps.

She doesn't need steps, and if she loses, she loses.

"Hahahaha, don't expect too much from the concubine, if you lose, you will be happy in vain!" While speaking, the little eunuch changed the circle chair again, and Duan Hongzhen sat down in front of the chess table.

And Lin Zhimeng's admission of defeat not only surprised Tian Feng, but also Tian Yao, who was standing behind her, was even more surprised!

The concubine was defeated like this?

Lost to the queen you hate the most?

Tian Yao felt incredible.
