When it came to business, Shen Youchu didn't smile anymore, and after Ju Xiang wiped off the water droplets on the stone table and stone bench, he invited Hua Yi to sit down first.

Hua Yi smiled and waved his hand when he saw the situation: "Please also ask Miss Shen to explain the lottery head first, and then I will consider whether this game of chess can be played." ”

Others call him Hua Yi Master Hua, and even say that he is a master.

But only Hua Yi understands that born in the world, the rules that should be obeyed must be observed, and the imperial power and wealth are the rules set by people, and he can laugh at them, not enter the court, or not enter the factional struggle.

However, human nature must not be ignored in seeking advantages and avoiding disadvantages.

If Shen Youchu's lottery head he can't accept, even if he wants to play this game of chess, he has to endure it.

"It's not a difficult thing, I heard my mother say that Master Hua has not yet confiscated an apprentice, and plans to introduce you to an apprentice."

Shen Youchu's abacus played too loudly.

Mei Xiang, who was standing next to her, understood.

Miss wants Ning Gongzi to become Master Hua's apprentice, so that Master Hua will not only heal Ning Gongzi's injuries, but also become Ning Gongzi's backer.

Hua Yixin said: It's really not difficult, but I'm not happy.

"Before I returned to my hometown, the King of Jin sent a generous gift and the eight characters of all the descendants of the Jin Palace, and asked me to choose one of them as my apprentice."

As soon as these words came out, Shen Youchu suddenly became nervous.

Master Hua accepted someone from the Jin Palace's Mansion as an apprentice?

The reason why she proposed this lottery was to use the name of Master Hua to make Zhou An, who dared to covet Ning Gongzi's life, stop from now on.

If Master Hua accepted someone from the Jin Palace's Mansion as an apprentice, then there would be no need for the two of them to play chess in the future.

She has no opinion on the Jin Palace, but she has a great opinion on Zhou An!

Wait, no.

"Master Hua, aren't you, like our Shen family, not participating in factional battles in the court, and you can still return to your hometown if you accept someone from the Jin Palace's mansion as an apprentice?"

Shen Youchu angrily exposed Hua Yi's words.

He only said that the Jin Wangfu sent people to send all the children and grandchildren, which made people think that one person was selected as an apprentice, but in fact, he could choose none of them.

Hua Yi smiled when he heard this, and said with appreciation: "If Miss Shen wants to be my apprentice, I am very happy to lose to you again, and others ...... Cannot. ”

A young lady from a famous family like Shen Youchu, the real Bazi will never even be known to anyone other than her parents.

But the first time he saw Shen Youchu, just by looking at his face, he knew that his luck was even stronger than that of the emperor's grandson who could compete for the crown prince.

In addition, Shen Youchu is still very clever without a prestigious family, and he has studied the way of painting, and his spirit of ignoring the evaluation of others also makes him admire, and he is suitable to inherit his mantle.

Seeing Hua Yi's direct refusal, Shen Youchu knew that the lottery she mentioned was useless.

That's it.

That's the next best thing.

"Master Hua, if you win me, I will be your apprentice, if you lose to me, then you will heal a person's injury for me, so that you will take advantage of me and will not refuse me again, right?"

In order for Ning Gongzi's body to be intact, she was willing to take this risk.

Hua Yi immediately sat opposite Shen Youchu and urged: "Hurry up, hurry down, finish early and eat early." ”

He could guess what kind of injury Shen Youchu said was treated, not a fatal injury, but it could be recovered in more than a month, and he really took advantage of this lottery.

"Miss Shen, you have to be careful, I'm no longer the same person I used to be."

Huayi first put on a winning posture, and after getting the chess box, he quickly landed in the middle.

The first step in the game is very important.

is the so-called "golden horn and silver-edged grass belly", Hua Yi's bold son was indeed unexpected by Shen Youchu, but she followed a son next to her in a hurry.

Hua Yi's complexion, which was still sunny just now, suddenly became cloudy.

This is a bit of a departure from the moves of the games he's seen.

……

Outside the kitchen.

Ning Wuxian looked at Ji Jin nervously at the courtyard where Hua Yi was, looking preoccupied, and asked her curiously, "Why is Miss Ji so worried?" ”

Isn't it just a matter of playing chess to win a lottery?

It is indeed difficult to ask Hua Yi to treat his injuries, but it is not as difficult as ascending to the sky, there is no need to be so serious and nervous.

"I ......"

Ji Jin thought of the plan that Yu Chu discussed with her, and always felt that there was a sense of calculating Hua Shibo, and because of this, it was inconvenient for her to help together.

But because this matter is not easy to succeed, Yu Chu also told her that she can't talk to Ning Gongzi until she succeeds.

"I may have gotten up too early and been a little sleepy, so I'll find a place to sit first."

Ji Jin avoided talking about it, and his weak expression knew that he was lying.

Even if the maidservant took a bench and sat at the door, she still looked towards the courtyard where Hua Yi was, and anyone with long eyes could see that she did have something on her mind.

However, Ning Wuxian didn't ask any more difficult questions.

"Miss Ji, if Miss Shen fails, it's okay, I have a way to let Master Hua help me heal."

Ning Wuxian smiled confidently, walked into the kitchen, and then instructed the cook to cook.

Ji Jin thought of Youchu's true purpose, clenched his handkerchief, and muttered to himself: "If Youchu's thing about letting Hua Shibo take Ning Gongzi as an apprentice is done, what if Ning Gongzi doesn't agree?" ”

She felt that although Ning Gongzi respected Hua Shibo, he didn't attach importance to it.

Hua Shibo is indeed the first in the field of divination and fortune-telling, and Gongzi Ning is also unique in the poetry world.

Thinking about it like this, she didn't know whether she should pray for Yu Chu to fulfill her wish and give Ning Gongzi a surprise.

Half an hour later.

The fragrance of sauerkraut fish wafting from the kitchen came to his nose, which made Ji Jin, who had been in a tangled and worried mood, suddenly have a great appetite and feel much more comfortable.

"Miss Ji, it's time to start the meal, I don't know if the fried mushrooms made in Zhuangzi are suitable for Master Hua's taste, and I have to bother you to help me get this food box."

Ning Wuxian and Ji Jin have long been friends, and they are never ambiguous when they should be used.

Regarding Ning Wuxian's request, Ji Jin naturally would not refuse, picked up the food box, and sniffed the two food boxes in Yunfei's hand.

"Sauerkraut fish?"

She didn't remember that Ning Gongzi had prepared the ingredients for the sauerkraut fish just now.

Ning Wuxian explained with a smile: "You talked about it too early just now and were a little sleepy, I thought that maybe my appetite was not very good, so I stewed a pot of sauerkraut fish after letting the cook clean up the fish, just to eat some sour to wake up my stomach." ”

He didn't say that this was specially prepared for Ji Jin, so as not to cause unnecessary illusions and burdens to others.

But Ji Jin smiled in understanding, and made a decision in her heart: even if she failed to promote Hua Shibo's acceptance of apprentices, she would find one more backer for Ning Gongzi.

Absolutely, Ning Gongzi must not be hurt again.

Ning Wuxian waited for Ji Jin to take the food box, and then strode forward.

He was very curious about how Shen Youchu won a master like Hua Yi who had to make a calculation when he went to someone else's house, so he walked a little fast.

It's just that he didn't take two steps, and Ji Jin trotted to catch up.
