Chapter 39: Entering the Palace
The golden glazed tiles and the red eight-zhang high wall complement each other under the sunlight, adding a lot of beautiful scenery.
Since the five universities had arrived early, the royal family set up a banquet and invited all the students and deans to participate in the competition. And Jing Yifan and others were also invited.
The first time he entered the palace, Jing Yifan was like a hillbilly entering the city, constantly looking around, like a curious baby, he had to see everything and touch everything, which made the two people next to him desperate to find a cloth to cover their faces, and it was too embarrassing to walk with him.
Jing Yifan didn't see anything, and still looked around. He finally came to another world, and he had to take a good look at the palace here.
After turning around several times, I came to the place where the banquet was. Here is a larger garden, in which there are many kinds of famous flower beds, and there is a pond of 100 square meters in the middle, the pond is surrounded by Qiongxiang buildings, people are in it, and the mood has become much more enjoyable.
When everyone from Yuerong Academy arrived, there were already many people here, except for the Yanjiang Academy and Yique Academy, which had not yet come, the others had already arrived.
"Junior brother, come with me and introduce you to a few good chess players!" Li Tiannan grabbed Jing Yifan and said.
"Li Tiannan, when did you have such a good relationship with Senior Brother Yifan? I remember that you were still making trouble with him at the beginning, but now how did you change your sex and start to please him. Zhu Wu looked at Li Tiannan playfully, he had known Li Tiannan for more than a day or two, and he had always been very arrogant, this time he would be so good to a person who defeated him, it was the first time he had seen him.
"Go, go, how can you be everywhere. Brother, come, ignore him. Li Tiannan glared at Zhu Wu, didn't give a good face at all, and pulled Jing Yifan towards a corner.
Li Tiannan's transformation Jing Yifan also discovered that it seems that after coming out of Lanshan, Li Tiannan has changed like a person, and it is a bit abnormal to treat him well. It stands to reason that they should be enemies, how can it be said that he and the Li family are still in a situation of confrontation, Li Tiannan, as the young master of the Li family, took the initiative to have a relationship with him, and Jing Yifan would not reach out to hit the smiling man and let it develop.
Maybe with Li Tiannan as a breakthrough, he can solve the grievances with the Li family, but in the final analysis, the grievances between him and the Li family are still provoked because of Li Dan. Therefore, if Li Tiannan wants to turn enemies into friends, he will naturally not object.
In this corner, there were many young people, the only thing being that they were all dressed in the same costumes, and needless to say, they all came from the same school. Because the students of each institution who participated in this game were wearing the clothes of their own institutions, which was not only convenient for identification, but also representatives of their respective institutions.
From the costumes of these people, Jing Yifan could easily see that they were all students of the Buyu Academy. Li Tiannan pulled him here, filling him with confusion. It seems that there is not much contact between Yuerong School and Buyu Academy, is there anyone Li Tiannan knows?
"Brother Yangqiu. ”
Han Yangqiu heard someone calling him, turned around and found Jing Yifan and Li Tiannan, and he could also see from the clothes that both of them were students of Yue Rong Academy, so he couldn't remember where he had seen these two people for a while. He asked uncertainly, "Are you?"
"It's only been half a year, doesn't Brother Yangqiu know the little brother?" Li Tiannan stepped forward with a smile and said.
After thinking for a while, Han Yangqiu finally remembered, pointed at Li Tiannan in surprise, and shouted: "Brother Tiannan, it turns out that you are a student of Yuerong Academy! No wonder you didn't tell where you came from no matter how much I asked you at the beginning, you can't run away this time, and you will fight with me for three hundred rounds." ”
Speaking of which, this was half a year ago, Li Tiannan traveled everywhere, happened to pass by Buqiu, met Han Yangqiu, and the two formed a friendship because of the game.
"Haha, don't be in a hurry about the game, I'll introduce you to a chess master first!"
"Chess master?" Han Yangqiu looked at Li Tiannan in surprise, but he knew that Li Tiannan's vision could be called a master by him, so he had to take a good look.
"Come, this is my junior brother Jing Yifan, the first place in Yuerong Academy this year. ”
"What!" Han Yangqiu exclaimed, his eyes were on Jing Yifan, and after a while, he said suspiciously: "Brother Tiannan, I don't think this junior is more than twenty years old, right?"
"Well, I'm just seventeen years old. ”
"Shhhhhh How high Li Tiannan's chess skills are, he knows that if he can beat Li Tiannan, he will definitely not be weaker than the peak of the Holy Hand, and if he wants to make Li Tiannan, who is also the peak of the Holy Hand, respect him so much, he can only think of one possibility, that is, the young man in front of him has reached the Tianyuan stage.
Tianyuan stage, the stage that many people dream of!
Through Li Tiannan's introduction, Jing Yifan and Han Yangqiu soon got to know each other, and they also knew a lot about the contestants of Buqi Academy. And Jing Yifan also knew Li Tiannan's intentions at this time, and came to know that Han Yangqiu was fake, and stealing the news was the purpose.
As the saying goes, knowing oneself and knowing the other side can win all battles, Jing Yifan did not have the intention of breaking Li Tiannan. To put it bluntly, Li Tiannan is also for Yue Rong Academy, although no one in the Bu Rong Academy is his opponent, he is still very grateful for everything Li Tiannan has done.
After coming back, Li Tiannan ran to Zhu Wu's side, and talked about it, saying that he must have told him about it.
As the sun set, all the people invited to the banquet arrived, the five universities gathered again, and Yique Academy was no exception, and Jing Yifan also saw the supreme ruler of the Hongtian Dynasty for the first time.
"Senior, as far as I know, Nalan's surname seems to be the surname of Wang, is this Dean of Yique Academy a member of the royal family?"
After listening to the conversation on the side, Jing Yifan remembered that it seemed that the current ruler of the Hongtian Dynasty was surnamed Nalan, and the dean of Yique Academy, Nalan Xiong, was also surnamed Nalan, so it was hard not to think of it.
"Yique Academy is actually a royal school, and the students in it are all children of major families, to put it bluntly, it is also a noble school, remember that you had better not provoke the people of Yique Academy, it will bring you trouble. ”
"That's right, although we can also participate in the game, but the number of people in the Yique Academy will be more than the five universities combined, and our biggest obstacle is them. Zhu Wu, who usually doesn't like to talk, also expressed his opinion, and he didn't seem to have a good impression of this Yique school.
"Welcome to the arrival of the five universities, and we invite you to come to the banquet today, mainly to catch the wind and wash the dust for everyone, so today we don't have to pay attention to the etiquette of the monarch and the minister, and only talk about friendship, regardless of state affairs. You can do whatever you want, and you don't have to think about it. ”
Nalan Hongyi, the current ruler of the Hongtian Dynasty, is a kind old man who is over half a hundred years old, and after saying some opening words, he chatted with the deans of several academies, and several deans did not behave very restrained, as if such a thing had happened before. As the supreme ruler of the empire, it is really rare to be able to put down his identity and get together with everyone.
Jing Yifan and the others were still a little restrained at first, and they were relieved to see this situation, he was really afraid that he would have to sit with his waist straight until the end of the banquet.
