Chapter 33: Fighting Chess
Under Ning Yuan's send-off, out of the garden, Li Wuchen glanced at the sky, the sun was already hanging high in the sky, so he didn't delay anymore and went towards Deyun Tower.
Autumn is crisp, there are many pedestrians on the street, and many jugglers have set up stalls on the street, occasionally with a burst of applause and a crisp tapping sound of some copper plates into the gong.
A few children frolicked and hummed nursery rhymes, passing through the crowd, the singing was somewhat familiar, it was a poem he made yesterday, which was adapted into a ballad, and hummed in the streets and alleys.
Li Wuchen was a little speechless, this is due to the fame of that 'Li Wuchen', the story of Feifenglou yesterday was spread all over the city overnight, and even those peddlers and pawns were catchy.
After entering the city, after about a stick of incense, he arrived in front of the Deyun Building.
It is a three-storey building, standing in a two-story attic, quite a bit of a crowd of people, and the front of the door is full of visitors, most of them are richly dressed dignitaries.
"Guest officer, but one person came to dine?"
A little guy walked up to Li Wuchen with a smile, he saw that the other party was dressed generously, obviously a generous person, so his attitude was very respectful.
Before Li Wuchen could speak, a guard with a knife drove the little guy aside, and Li Wuchen arched his hand and said, "Mr. Li, my son-in-law is waiting for you in the private room on the third floor, please come here." ”
With that, he stretched out his hand and took the lead in leading Li Wuchen towards the third floor of the Deyun Building.
After the little guy saw Li Wuchen and the two leave, he patted his chest with a frightened face.
The third floor of the Deyun Building is not to be able to go up if you have money, you have to add a certain status on the basis of money, so there are not many people who can go up to the third floor.
"Who is that man? ”
"You don't know this? That's Mr. Li Wuchen, who wrote a poem yesterday, and is a man of the hour in the capital today. ”
............
In the midst of a chaotic discussion, Li Wuchen walked up with the guards.
"Mr. Li, please!"
As soon as he went up to the third floor, a beautiful maid with a smile on her face took over as the guard to guide Li Wuchen.
I have to say that Lin Changyu's row is still very sufficient, the entire three floors of the Deyun Building are empty, and dozens of guards with knives are standing on both sides, holding the stairs with their hands, not letting anyone in.
The maidservant took Li Wuchen to a private room and shouted softly, "Your Highness, Mr. Li is here." ”
"Come in!"
A male voice came from inside, a somewhat low voice, full of bookish anger.
After hearing this, the maid slowly pushed the door open, smiled, and bowed to invite Li Wuchen in.
"Sir, please sit down, please wait for me for a moment. ”
Lin Changyu held the chess game in one hand and the black chess in the other, and was looking at the dying black chess with a tangled face.
After half a cup of tea, Lin Changyu put down the chess game in his hand, sighed, then got up, arched his hand towards Li Wuchen, and said with a smile, "Bengong is a chess idiot, Fang just had some nightmares, please don't blame Mr." ”
Lin Changyu has a very Wenzong demeanor, smiling like a breeze, and does not make people feel dissatisfied, and his tone is slightly regretful.
"A chessboard, containing the avenue of heaven and earth, is indeed easy for people to fall into it and be obsessed with it. ”
Li Wuchen didn't mind at all, his eyes were also looking at the chessboard in front of him, the white son had become a big dragon, and the sunspot was in decline, and it was difficult to return to the sky.
"Sir also knows chess, would you like to play a game with Honguya?"
Lin Changyu seemed to be very happy about this, squinting at Li Wuchen and smiling.
"Dare to disobey!"
Li Wuchen bowed his hand slightly, and then sat down in front of Lin Changyu's opponent.
The beautiful maid who brought Li Wuchen over slowly stepped forward, carefully sealed the chessboard in front of the two of them, and at the same time, ordered someone to change it to a new one.
"Please Your Highness, please first!"
Li Wuchen pushed the black chess basket forward, but was pushed back by Lin Changyu.
"There is no dignity in the chess field, and the master is at your disposal, please ask Mr. first. ”
Li Wuchen shook his head and pushed it back again, and after three retreats and three concessions, Lin Changyu took the sunspot and pointed at the upper right star.
"Mr. Wen Chuan helped Lin Yi solve the Tusi Rebellion and relieved me of the danger of Dayan Southern Xinjiang?"
As if unintentionally, as if intentional, Lin Changyu said softly.
"A little thing, how can you disturb the ears of His Highness. ”
Li Wuchen didn't look up, and put his hand on the lower left star.
"This is not a small matter, southern Xinjiang is related to the lifeblood of the country, Mr. is meritorious!"
Lin Changkong shook his head, and the idea was placed on the star position in the upper right again.
"Your Highness is serious, Wuchen is just doing his duty as a great man. ”
Li Wuchen didn't take the lowest star position, and pointed to the lower right star position.
Lin Changyu sighed, "Mr. really doesn't want to enter the court as an official? This palace has admired Mr. for a long time, and I am willing to take Mr. as a close friend." ”
"Wuchen is just an idle Taoist, His Royal Highness Lao remembers, and Wuchen is inexplicably grateful. ”
Where could Li Wuchen not see what the other party meant, the other party wanted to borrow his own hand and indirectly reach into the Wuzong, and what he was trying to win over was not a rather literary 'Li Wuchen', what he really wanted to win over was the general of Nanding Town Standing behind him, Lin Yi, and the king of Beijun who sat behind Lin Yi who was sitting in the entire North County, Lin Xian!
Seeing that the wooing failed, Lin Changyu was not annoyed, obviously had his own thoughts, and turned his thoughts back to the chessboard.
Seeing chess is like seeing people, Lin Changyu's chess level is very high, and he is not as humble and reasonable as he seems on the surface, but he is decisive in killing, leaving no way for people to live.
Li Wuchen thought in his heart, the other party was warning him, if he was not a friend, he was an enemy, and since he was an enemy, it was a dead end.
In the middle game, Lin Changyu had the upper hand and ate Li Wuchen's white chess to death, but he was never able to win Li Wuchen.
"The palace is so big, I've never had such a lot of fun, and those minions, all of them will only let me. ”
Lin Changyu's words don't seem to be fake, as His Royal Highness the Crown Prince under one person and above ten thousand people, there is indeed no one who dares to disobey him, let alone eat him on the chessboard.
Li Wuchen didn't answer, looking at Lin Changyu, a big dragon that was about to take shape, he stood up, arched his hand at him, and said, "Your Royal Highness has unparalleled chess skills, and I admire it, Wuchen admits defeat." ”
Lin Changyu shook his head, looked at the chessboard in front of him with unfinished eyes, and said loudly to Li Wuchen, "Please take a seat, sir, let's get drunk today." ”
With that, he stood up and led Li Wuchen to the dining table.
The maidservant outside the door was instructed to quickly bring in the meal that had been prepared long ago.
"Don't blame me, sir, after all, there are many people who want to murder this palace. ”
Lin Changyu smiled at Li Wuchen with a slight apologetic smile.
Li Wuchen glanced at it, and each dish was missing a small corner, which was done by the tasting officer outside the door, and the dishes were a little cold, and they had obviously been placed outside for a long time.
After shaking his head hurriedly, he gave Lin Changyu a glass.
This luncheon lasted for nearly an hour, and it didn't stop until Lin Changyu was drunk.
"Tomorrow, this palace will come to visit Mr. Li Mansion, but please don't dislike this palace and be bored!"
Lin Changyu looked at Li Wuchen drunkenly, and after saying this, he returned to the East Palace with the support of the maidservant.
Li Wuchen rubbed his eyes, walked to the chessboard, picked up a white piece casually, and clicked on it, the big dragon collapsed in an instant, and there was no chance to turn the game around.
