Chapter 245 Blindfold Chess
As soon as the emperor left, Xue Wanqing said to Xie Zhiwei angrily, "Xie Zhiwei, what do you mean?"
Linghua was furious, "Xue Wanqing, how can you be presumptuous in front of me and the eldest sister? Today, you provoked again and again, and it was just now that the father was here, so it is hard for me and the eldest sister to say anything. Believe it or not, if you still dare to do this, I will have someone throw you out!"
Yuan Jiadao, "Master Xu, I remember that when my aunt was here, there was a rule that people without status were not allowed to enter. Why, is the Feng family still the uncle's house now?"
"let's go!"
Xue Wanqing was a bachelor, so she took a deep look at Yuan Jia and Ling Hua, and walked out. That glance had a deep meaning, as if to say that if Yuan Jia and Ling Hua treated her like this, they would always regret it in the future.
Yuan Jia and Ling Hua didn't put people like Xue Wanqing in their eyes, but what made people feel very strange was that Hui and Huayang also left with Xue Wanqing, plus Xue Wanshuang, a total of four people, soon Just leave the garden.
"The eldest daughter of the Xue family is really a weird person. I heard before that the relationship between the second daughter of the Xue family and her is very bad. Looking at it today, why did it suddenly become better?"
"Didn't you see that the heads of Huihe County and Huayang County actually regard her as their leader, regardless of their dignity?"
"I know a little bit. I heard that the eldest daughter of the Xue family has the ability to predict the future. She said that there will be a severe drought in the new year. I don't know if it is true?"
…
"Shut up!" Yuan Jia shouted angrily, "Go out this door today, and you are not allowed to spread a word of Miss Xue's words just now. Even if there is a severe drought next year, it is not terrible. Hu, I think you are all readers, so you should be able to distinguish the pros and cons of it?"
Everyone looked at each other, not quite understanding.
Xie Zhiwei picked up the teacup, took a sip, and reminded, "The fear in my heart often causes more damage than the actual injury. Miss Xue said that there will be a severe drought next year. I don't know where to start. Maybe it's just her. Just by the way, but if we make a big publicity outside, what will the common people think? When you think that there may be no harvest next year, what do you think the common people will do?"
The crowd came to their senses, trembling all over, and said, "Nonsense, today's sages, the government is clear, where did the natural disaster come from?"
After all, they are a group of young people, and they have nothing to do with government affairs, and they soon started to play around.
Xu Peiyun was followed by two maids, who came over with the chessboard and chess pieces, and said to Xie Zhiwei, "Master, it's better to hit the sun than to choose a day, how about today's day for hand-talking?"
Xie Zhiwei hurriedly got up and saluted, "Being respectful is worse than obeying, please!"
The two burned incense with clean hands, Xu Peiyun smiled and said, "Time flies, I still remember that more than ten years ago, I had the honor to talk with Lingtang under the old locust tree in Famen Temple in the suburbs of Beijing. At that time, there were no chess pieces. Lingtang proposed to play blindfolded chess, we went back and forth, and it took more than an hour to decide the winner."
Everyone on the scene looked sideways, playing blindfold chess, and it took more than an hour to decide the winner. What kind of ghost story is this telling?
"From now on, no one has played such a happy chess game with me!"
Xu Peiyun's tone revealed the desolation of a master's loneliness.
Xie Zhiwei thought for a while and said, "I don't know which time, my mother won, or everyone Xu won?"
"We made a tie." Xu Peiyun was a little proud.
Xu Peiyun was just talking, but Xie Zhiwei did not expect such a request. Playing blindfold chess relies on the extremely terrible memory, not only to memorize the opponent's chess moves, but also to memorize your own, very human can do it.
Xie Zhiwei and Xu Peiyun sat under the south window of the hall, drinking tea and playing chess at the same time. The two chessboards were placed in the east and west corners of the north, respectively, surrounded by a group of teenagers and girls.
For the girls, Xie Zhiying and the second girl from the Household Minister's family each hold black and white moves, while for the young masters, Xu Liang and Cao Yunhua make moves according to the chess moves respectively. The crowd of onlookers was three layers away, and everyone held their breaths in silence. Qi, high concentration.
After guessing the chess piece, Xu Peiyun took black and landed the first piece, "East five south six!"
"Three in the east and four in the north!" Xie Zhiwei almost waited for Xu Peiyun's last word, and she would make a move, without delay, killing decisively, but calmly, showing the demeanor of a generation of masters.
"North five and west three!" Xu Peiyun paused for a moment, then settled down.
"North five, east seven!" Xie Zhi smiled, glanced at Xu Peiyun, she took a sip of tea slowly, the tea tasted a bit bad, she frowned slightly and handed it to Zi Mo who was serving at the side.
Zi Mo hurriedly made another cup of tea for her, Xie Zhiwei took a sip, his brows and eyes relaxed.
Time gradually passed away, the sun was already westward, the atmosphere in the courtyard became depressing, and the onlookers were all terrified.
Xu Peiyun's nose dripped with sweat, and she involuntarily glanced at Xie Zhiwei, "East Seventeen South Twenty!"
Xie Zhiwei did not speak, but narrowed his eyes slightly, and glanced at Xu Peiyun.
Xu Peiyun thought she was at a dead end, so she didn't let go of her breath. Xu Liang shouted, "Master Xu, we've already lost a child here."
Xu Peiyun took a deep breath, stood up, walked to the side of the chessboard, took a look, turned around, and cupped her hands at Xie Zhiwei, "County Duanxian, let me go!"
Xie Zhiwei stood up and replied, "Master Xu, if today's game is not blindfolded, perhaps I should be the one to say this. My grandfather often told me that when I was young, I read a lot and my memory is good. The books I read will last a lifetime." Forget, when I was young, I was studying, and this is exactly the truth, you are not inferior to me in chess, playing blind chess is a test of memory."
Xu Peiyun looked deeply at Xie Zhiwei, "You beat me today, if this word gets out, you will be a generation of female national champions, why do you have to be humble?"
"Fame is not what I want, neither profit nor benefit is what I want. As a member of the Xie family, I have the morality and bottom line that I must stick to. Master Xu, if there is a chance in another day, I will have a hand-to-hand discussion with Master Xu."
"Okay, I'll wait!" Xu Peiyun felt extremely refreshed. She has exhausted a lot of energy today and her energy is also very low, but she has never been so happy in the past ten years.
Xu Peiyun paused, and said, "County Lord, Youlan will be in various situations today, but I still feel that a person who can play a game of blindfolded chess with great momentum will not act like a villain. With me in one day, the gate of Youlanju will always be open to the county lord, there is no need for Youlan stickers."
Xie Zhi smiled and said, "Thank you everyone Xu, of course I'm coming, and I hope to have a hand-to-hand conversation with everyone Xu."
Xu Peiyun's eyes showed admiration. This is the real lady from a famous family.
Others were also surprised when they heard Xu Peiyun say this, and they took it for granted.
"The county lord wait a moment, I have something that I want to pass on to the county lord."
After Xu Peiyun finished speaking, she turned and went to the backyard, and came back after a while. She wrapped a chess record in a piece of blue cloth and handed it to Xie Zhiwei, "This was given to me by Lingtang back then. I have cherished it all these years. Now It's time for me to give it to you."
