Chapter 492: Entrusted by the Empress

Do you know how to play chess?

It's a question worth asking.

In the previous life, Bai Song was definitely not powerful.

But in this day and age......

I still want to play against the Zheng family's grandfather, Bai Song secretly thinks that he should be considered powerful

But playing chess with the queen mother definitely can't be like with the princess of the Zheng family.

When to calculate a degree, you really need to think about it.

Bai Song pondered and stepped forward, and found that a chessboard had been set up in front of the queen's mother, obviously prepared.

It is also an honorable thing to be able to play against the queen and spread it.

Bai Song sat down with some expectation and made a gesture of please.

The queen mother was still so gentle, picked up a chess piece and gently placed it on the chessboard.

The queen mother seems to be rarely so elegant, attracting many palace maids around, everyone is watching the chess seriously, and even Princess Danyang also came over.

Bai Song responded calmly, in line with the principle of one loose and one tight, he would not attack too hard, nor would he collect too much, and always maintained a degree.

After a while, the black and white sides on the chessboard opened their respective positions, and for a while they could not see which was better or worse.

If there is a chess expert, it must be seen that Bai Song has always controlled the chess game, not only controlling one side, but controlling the progress of both black and white.

In modern parlance, it is to guide the next game of chess.

In fact, there is no need to go more, it can already be seen that Bai Song's chess strength is much higher than that of the queen mother.

It's a pity that the surrounding spectators are only rough and can't see the mystery.

Time passed minute by minute, the progress of the chess game was very slow, the queen mother played chess is not good to compete with others, pay attention to the beautiful shape of chess, and think very carefully, in short, it is very slow to play, thinking a lot.

The chessboard is dotted with stars and shapes, but the reality is ethereal.

This is not the most important thing, the important thing is that the queen mother plays chess too slowly, and it makes people a little sleepy after watching it for a long time.

At first, the palace maids around looked at it with relish, and after a while, they secretly yawned.

The same is true of Princess Danyang on the side, who keeps yawning, but she doesn't dare to say anything to urge the queen to go faster.

The palace maid didn't dare to leave because she hugged the queen, but Princess Danyang couldn't stand such a quiet thing, so she sneaked away after a while and went out to see the poetry of the literati outside.

Everyone was drowsy, but Bai Song was still watching the chess game seriously.

The queen mother, who had been silent, suddenly asked at this moment: "Sir's chess strength far exceeds that of the palace, why is he so cautious and focused?" ”

"Playing chess with the queen, the grass people dare not slack off."

"Everyone is drowsy, why does the gentleman keep twisting his eyebrows?"

"There are some chess that obviously don't need to be thought, but the mother still paused for a long time before making a move. I saw that everyone around me was groggy, and I thought that Niangniang should have done it on purpose. So I'm thinking hard about my mother's mind, but I haven't understood it yet. ”

When the queen mother heard this, she immediately showed a satisfied smile.

"It is a good thing that the gentleman is delicate. Hongu deliberately did this just to make some people avoid it. ”

Bai Song didn't move, but he already knew in his heart who the queen wanted to break up.

The queen mother was silent, and took advantage of Princess Danyang's active and evil temperament to break her up.

The queen's methods are also quite clever.

At this time, the speed of the queen's mother was obviously much faster, but she said while falling: "From now on, Mr. will share prosperity and disgrace with the East Palace, I hope Mr. can always be vigilant and not compete everywhere like today." ”

When Bai Song heard it, he knew that this was the queen's mother who wanted to give herself some instructions, so she should respond seriously.

"Don't worry, I don't like to fight with others, but someone has already bullied me to the head, and I have no choice but to counterattack. In the future, he will work for the East Palace, and he should know the priorities. ”

When the queen mother heard this, she nodded with satisfaction, and said: "I took Princess Danyang away, and I intended to tell Mr. that in the future, I should draw a clear line with Princess Danyang and have less contacts." Although Princess Danyang is favored by the saint, she often interferes in the affairs of the East Palace, and violates etiquette. Now that there are many cronies of Danyang in all parties in the East Palace, and the prince trusts Danyang, the palace is afraid that Danyang's power in the East Palace will become bigger and difficult to control. The main palace explained to the gentleman in advance that he wanted the gentleman to be clear about the relationship. Don't win over Danyang in the future, so as not to chill the palace. Don't let Princess Runan chill. ”

"Princess Runan ......"

These four words made Bai Song a little surprised, and the chess pieces in his hand were halfway in and stopped in the air.

Bai Song looked at the queen mother in surprise, a little puzzled.

The queen said with a smile: "Princess Runan is more important than you, saying that you are the best material in the world, and you must be used by the Tang Dynasty." Before, because the emperor blamed Yu Shinan, he affected you, and gave you a reputation of never being an official. Fortunately, the emperor didn't say that he wouldn't let you be used by the East Palace, so Runan begged the head of the palace, saying that he would let you serve in the East Palace, and he would be able to help the emperor become a generation of Ming monarchs one day. ”

Bai Song was slightly stunned after hearing this, he didn't expect Li Xiangnan to be so attentive to himself.

I thought of the marriage team I met when I first came to Qingyuan, but I didn't have any help for other people's major affairs, and compared with the two, I felt more guilty in my heart, and I didn't know what to say for a while.

Seeing that Bai Song seemed to be emotional, the queen said with a smile: "Sir, don't think about it, this palace invites you to value Mr.'s talent, not just for Runan." The position of young master is very important, and I hope that Mr. can do his best to assist. ”

Bai Song listened, put down the chess pieces and arched his hand: "I will definitely live up to the queen's trust." ”

……

At this moment, the courtyard suddenly became lively.

It turned out that this second question was for composing poetry.

The reason for the hilarity is not that there are any wonderful poems written.

And because I don't know who mentioned Bai Song's crab poem.

The matter of Bai Song involved everyone in the audience, and there was always a lot of controversy when it came to Bai Song.

Just like the crab poem written by Bai Song in Yongxing College, although it is a little bold and arrogant, it is far from its "Water Tune Song Head".

This is also a matter recognized by the Chang'an literary circle, and there are many private discussions.

As early as in Xiangjiazhuang, it was discussed by several literati invited by Princess Danyang.

All of his discussions were held in private, but they were never brought to the fore.

I don't know who proposed it, Bai Song's crab poem was suddenly brought to the front of the people, taking advantage of the craze of everyone discussing the poem, by the way, I asked everyone what they thought of Bai Song's crab poem.

When it came to the topic, the students of Wenhua College spared no effort to belittle it, saying that the crab poem and the water tune song were not written by the same person.

Even if its poetry is talented, a little scrutiny of the poems will find many loopholes, every word is deducted, there are always many unbeautiful places, and the rhyme and foot battle will also find a lot of faults.

So everyone discussed, and they all said that Bai Song's water tune song head was a clever hand, and his own talent was limited, and he could not be too mythical by the world.
