"It seems that the mistress has won." The wild Taoist followed Su Ziji into the final hall. He stood outside the crowd and looked in. He saw Ye Buhui sitting on his knees on one side of the big chessboard with a calm expression. Although he could not see
There is joy, but there is also no dejection.
On the other hand, the middle-aged man sitting opposite had a pale face and looked down at the chessboard, motionless.
If you can't tell who wins and who loses, you have poor eyesight.
Su Ziji didn't go over immediately, he just stared and secretly breathed a sigh of relief: "There is no fluctuation in the Tao Dun Territory. Fortunately, fortunately!"
His heart suddenly relaxed, and the wild Taoist also closed his mouth after saying that sentence, and looked around. The onlookers slowly quieted down after cheering, and everyone was looking at the two people in the field.
This kind of atmosphere made the last two chess masters, who had originally looked at the chessboard in disbelief, but finally had to realize that they had indeed lost, finally come to their senses.
Wu Qinian did not look at the people around him who were looking at him and the girl opposite him, but looked at the girl opposite him.
The future life is terrible!
At such an age, with such talent, it is as if he was born for chess.
In fact, I did not lose unfairly. Although I missed the title of chess saint for this session and the title of lifelong chess saint, I felt discouraged and dejected, but I also had a trace of admiration for the younger generations.
After a long silence, he finally said what he needed to say: "I lost."
"boom!"
Even though the outcome had been decided just now, even though everyone knew this, but with Wu Qinian really admitting defeat, this final was finally over and ended successfully.
"It's a pity, it's a pity that a three-time chess master is a lifelong chess master. Now there is nothing."
"It's not like there's nothing. If you accumulate it once, you can seal the game and wait for the edict."
"That's different. Although they are all chess players waiting for imperial edicts, the ones accumulated are the same Jinshi, up to the ninth rank, and those who win consecutively are Jinshi, and can be promoted to the eighth rank. This is the highest honor that a chess player can obtain."
Everyone was talking and listening to the organizer's announcement.
"In this chess game, Ye Buhui wins!"
"According to the rules of the chess game, Ye Buhui will be awarded the title of Chess Saint!"
"Bring the prize."
An old man as thin as a pine tree announced that this year's chess master was Ye Buhui, and then looked at a middle-aged man standing next to him.
Following the instructions, the middle-aged man, who looked ordinary, came forward with a square brocade box.
The old man introduced Ye Buhui: "Each chess master will receive a white jade chessboard and chess pieces. I hope Miss Ye can improve her chess skills and strive to win the title of chess master for three consecutive years and win the title of lifelong chess master."
As for chess waiting for the imperial edict, it is the highest honor for ordinary chess players, and they also enjoy lifetime allowances (salary) from the court, but for the wife of the Duke of Dai, it is of course not worth mentioning, so we only talk about chess masters and not chess waiting for the imperial edict.
"I won by luck, but I really don't take it for granted." Ye Buhui was naturally modest. At this time, a middle-aged man came to Ye Buhui carrying a white jade chessboard and a brocade box containing chess pieces.
Among the crowd, Luo Jiang's eyes suddenly narrowed when he saw this scene.
"Ju Yuanhua, why is he here? Is he investigating new initiates?"
Although she didn't know the specific content, as one of the trump cards of the Imperial City Division, she naturally knew about the investigation of those who had been in Taoism for a year. She had been in Taoism for more than a year and was not under the spotlight, but she couldn't help but to investigate
I am a little more concerned about this matter.
And Juyuanhua is the veteran of the Imperial City Division, holding the title of Hundred Households.
Ju Yuanhua was also a little disturbed. This person who looked like a young girl, but the wife of Dai Guogong, if she was really a Taoist, even if she had the emperor's order, she would be causing a lot of trouble.
Duke Dai could not do anything to the emperor, and it would be too easy for him to die, so the emperor was happy to hand him over to let Duke Dai vent his anger.
"Hey, no?"
Handing the brocade box over, Ju Yuanhua felt relieved as he was so close, enough to explore the situation, and shook his head insignificantly.
In the crowd, there were a dozen people who looked like ordinary spectators. When they saw him shaking his head, his face suddenly showed disappointment, and he no longer stared at Ye Buhui as closely as before.
"no?"
Mrs. Dai Guogong, who was able to defeat the two consecutive chess masters, did not enter the Tao? In other words, was she on the verge of entering the Tao and failed to break through the bottleneck?
This is not impossible. Sometimes, there may be only a thin layer between entering the Tao and not entering the Tao. The gap is not big, but the gap will remain there throughout your life.
Even if you don't stop here and break through to Taoism in a few years, it will have nothing to do with what you are doing now.
Although he didn't know the specific purpose, Luo Jiang could feel that the Imperial City Division was in a hurry to find new initiates.
This generation of the Duke's wife is very lucky.
Thinking like this, Luo Jiang lowered his eyes obediently, and when he saw the crowd gradually dispersed, Duke Dai and his wife went out, and quietly followed them.
No matter what, although the work is a bit boring, other than that, the exquisite food and clothing, the treatment of guests, and the peaceful life are actually very comfortable.
Since she is staying at the Duke Dai's residence, she should stay there honestly.
She didn't know why, but she felt a flash of disappointment.
royal palace
Spring is already here, but for some reason in the past two days, there has been a sudden cold spring, with a cold wind blowing on my face. The sun hanging in the sky is red and bright, but it does not bring any warmth to people. On the contrary, pedestrians on the road can't help but wrap up their thinner clothes.
, walked quickly.
In the palace, eunuchs and maids must adhere to a set of rules whether they are walking, living, sitting or sleeping. There are unified regulations on what clothes to wear, whether it is spring clothes or winter clothes.
Zhongya was shivering slightly from the cold.
You can't be like ordinary people outside the palace, who can huddle up and walk with their hands on each other regardless of their manners.
No matter how cold it is, they still have to be light on their feet and stretch their posture.
Especially the eunuch serving in front did not dare to slack off at all.
The trend in the palace these days is not right. Although everyone is tight-lipped and those who know the inside story dare not speak nonsense, the atmosphere of a colleague being taken away from time to time is still very scary.
Dressing and doing things according to the crowd is the secret to save your own life as much as possible in this situation where even dropping a pin may attract the attention of others.
"ah!"
A young eunuch was holding something and following an older eunuch as he passed by a palace. He seemed to hear a faint scream, but when he listened carefully, the sound disappeared again.
"Go quickly!" the eunuch scolded in a low voice, and walked quickly over first.
The little eunuch felt a shiver in his heart. Even though it was the first time for him to follow his senior to the front to do something, but in the palace, such a little eunuch was at the lowest level. How could he not notice the uneasy atmosphere here?
And until they were far away, neither the eunuch nor the young eunuch took the initiative to mention what happened just now, as if neither of them heard the scream.
