Crowned the New Han Dynasty

Chapter 231 Black and White, Hu Yahan

"Master, how do you reply to Chen Zhi now? Are you really going to be invited as he wishes? Then go and prepare for the master." The entourage asked tentatively. Generally speaking, this kind of question can appear Be considerate and explore your master's thoughts at the same time.

Jiang Yi nodded and said without joy or sorrow: "Okay, you can go ahead and make arrangements. Naturally, I won't be afraid of such an invitation, so that Chen Zhi can know that these little thoughts are useless."

As Jiang Yi's decision was made, news quickly spread in the city. Rumors about Chen Zhi and Jiang Yi's invitation to each other immediately followed the news channels that had been established long ago and spread throughout Kaiyang and Liancheng. There are people in the Prince's Palace talking about it.

However, at this time, there was no prince sitting in the palace, so he did not make any reaction to the matter.

As time went by, one day passed, Jiang Yi's banquet was successfully held, and many stories were born, spread, and talked about by everyone, but it didn't have the momentum of the previous few days, because everyone was there Waiting for the news, suppressing his thoughts, looking forward to the meeting between Jiang Yi and Chen Zhi.

After all, these two are the most influential figures in Kaiyang County recently. They have been compared by many people, and the invitation to each other gave people a faint smell of tension.

Under such circumstances, a piece of news suddenly spread into the city.

"What? You said Gao He, the master of chess, was defeated by the Huns? Is the news reliable?"

Looking at the information in his hand, Jiang Yi frowned, stared at the name "Gao He", and said nothing for a long time.

Gao He came from a poor family, but he showed extraordinary talent since he was a child. He became a disciple of an expert and learned the Confucian way of speaking. He soon excelled and gained a great reputation.

This person was invited to this Xingtan forum.

In Jiang Yi's plan, this person will be the best target for him to show off his chess skills and help him improve his reputation. Unexpectedly, Gao He was defeated before he made a move, and this information also focused on rewriting Under the word "fiasco".

Jiang Yi didn't speak, the atmosphere in the whole room became solemn, and no one else dared to speak.

After a while, he suddenly asked: "Who did Gao He lose to? With his ability, how could he lose to the Huns?"

The attendant who came to report the news quickly said: "He is a nephew of Liu Yuan. He was adopted as his adopted son. The Huns called him the little prince."

"The little prince of the Huns? Why haven't I heard of this person? This apricot forum is just nonsense. The country is at war with the Huns, but they are lenient to these Huns nobles. I really think they can influence the Huns." ? If the world is really so simple, what's the use of Chen Houce?" Jiang Yi frowned and continued to ask, "This little prince, what is his name?"

"Liu Yunyan," the attendant quickly reported, "it is said that this person is currently a Xianbei noble."

"Liu Yunyan?" Chewing the name, Jiang Yi felt that things were a bit difficult to handle, "Since this person defeated Gao He, he can't get around him when he talks about Taoism. I don't know what his intellectual background is besides his chess skills. ?In this regard, I have emphasized it many times in the past, so you shouldn’t ignore it, right?”

"Of course," the attendant hurried forward and introduced carefully, "Liu Yunyan is no more than ten years old. He is said to be both civil and military. He has been familiar with classics since he was a child, and he has studied Chen Hou's method deeply. He is not expected to be very knowledgeable. The detailed information is still being sorted out.”

"That means that this person came prepared, and was even released by the Huns." Jiang Yi narrowed his eyes, and then waved his hand, "Leave this matter alone. If Gao He loses, he loses. Since He lost to this little Hun prince, so as long as I win this Hun, that's enough. Besides, besides Gao He, I have many chess masters in the middle, and there are many players who play Baijiaqi..."

A decision was made here, but half a day later, another news came, which finally made Jiang Yi unable to sit still.

"In one day, he defeated Gao He, Yu Guang, and Tang Qi in a row. This Liu Yunyan is extraordinary. Just this incident is enough to make him famous in China!"

It turned out that after defeating Gao He, the Hun prince Liu Yunyan challenged two chess masters in Linyi, namely Yu Guang and Tang Qi. These two people were from aristocratic families, but their family power was average. If they followed the normal trajectory, they would They were just two ordinary sons from aristocratic families, but they were talented at chess, so they gradually became famous, and their chess skills were as good as Gao He's.

Such three people were defeated one after another in half a day, which was enough to prove the strength of the little prince.

Among them, Tang Qi once studied with Jiang Yi, and they were considered classmates. So after losing the chess game, he sent a letter to Jiang Yi, telling what happened, and inviting him to go and play chess with the little prince. To save face——

It was big news that the three great chess masters from China were defeated by one person in a short period of time. However, the winner was not Han'er, but a Huns. Thinking of the war in Northern Xinjiang, things suddenly became complicated. Even though the common people at this time were not very clear about the differences between ethnic groups and the distinction between Huayi and Huayi, they still instinctively felt a sense of crisis and had complex feelings of frustration.

In this case, not to mention Tang Qi and others who were directly defeated, even those who were watching the game at the time wished they could end the game in person and save their face. So as soon as the chess game ended, they wrote books one after another and sent letters to all parties, hoping to share what they knew The famous and friendly chess masters are all called over, in the name of Zheng Zhongtu. "Tang Qi has a close relationship with me. Since he sent a letter asking for my help, it is my duty to help him." Jiang Yi looked at the letter and felt it weighed more than a thousand pounds. He knew the weight of the letter and the meaning behind it. It was a competition between Hu and Han. Although he had all kinds of concerns, he could not tolerate not accepting it. Otherwise, a fearful name would be spread and all the momentum in front would be destroyed.

However, Liu Yunyan's ability to defeat the three masters one after another has already made Jiang Yi vigilant. No matter how confident Jiang Yi is in his chess skills, facing such an opponent, who has not been in contact with him in the past, is a sudden appearance. It is inevitable to have concerns.

"From this point of view, I must speed up my momentum. As long as I have enough momentum, under the luck of the day and the earth, I will be able to display [-]% of my ability!" Soon, Jiang Yi had a plan in his heart, " I can’t improve my chess skills in a short period of time, but I can improve my momentum!”

Thinking of this, he summoned an attendant and asked: "How well do you know about Chen Zhi's situation? Since he invited me to study chess records with him, compared to his achievements in chess skills, has any deeds been reported in the past? ?”

Jiang Yi, a man of one word, always had to find out the details of his opponent before doing anything. Before sending the invitation to Chen Zhi, he briefly browsed Chen Zhi's life, but after all, he could not forget everything, so many details were written down. Not sure, he vaguely remembered that he didn't see any mention of Chen Zhi's chess skills.

"I can't remember this clearly. I hope the young master will wait a moment." After saying this, the attendant summoned a boy.

This young man has red lips, white teeth, and a pair of black eyes, which makes him appear intelligent.

After receiving the order, he did not look at the files and immediately said: "Chen Zhi has no chess records in existence, no records of formal games with anyone, and he has never talked about Tao. Mr. You had contact with Zuna, and there must have been a chess game at Zuna's house, but the outcome was unknown to outsiders. It was said that before Chen Zhi went north, Zuna had given many chess records to Chen Zhi, and it was assumed that he asked him to Take it with you and display it in the Apricot Forum."

The young boy described Chen Zhi's affairs related to chess skills and chess skills. He told them every detail, including many family treasures.

After hearing this, Jiang Yi nodded with satisfaction and said lightly: "You remember well. You can pick up another book later and go back to study."

Upon hearing this, the boy's face showed joy. After bidding farewell to Jiang Yi, he left the room.

As soon as the people left, Jiang Yi asked the previous entourage to arrange the carriage and horses, with a slightly anxious tone.

After the entourage was properly arranged, he showed a trace of doubt. Jiang Yi saw it and heard him say calmly: "Since Chen Zhi invites you, I will go and have a look. Wuyouzi Zuna is a master in the chess world and a master of chess skills." Gao, Gao He and others are also far behind, since it is his chess record, it is worth watching."

He said this not to explain to his entourage, but to straighten out his own thinking. The news from Tang Qi and others came suddenly, and the letter of help exceeded expectations, disrupting Jiang Yi's plan. He needed to think of a temporary solution. Policy, this cannot be done in an instant.

"Zuna is in the position of Zhongzheng in Pengcheng County, so he must not be able to come to the place where he discusses Taoism in person, so the chess record he asked Chen Zhi to bring must be a remnant score. It is for others to decipher. Only no one can break it. Only then can he show his ability. If I can meet him in advance and come up with a solution, not only can I suppress Chen Zhi's arrogance and take his recently accumulated reputation as my own, but also improve my chess skills a little bit. The most important thing is to spread the reputation of being good at chess!"

Jiang Yi's chess skills are actually quite superb, but he originally intended to use them as capital for a blockbuster. This time the Xingtan forum invited various tribes, which he thought was an ideal stage.

"It seems that Chen Zhi's thoughts turned out to be God's help for me. I'm afraid he didn't expect that his arrangements would eventually help me!"

As night fell, a banquet was held in Guanyue Tower, and everyone followed. Even Zhou Yan, Lu Jing, Gongsun Qi and others heard the news and accompanied them.

Zhou Yan was even more excited and a little restless.

Outside the pavilion, one or two oxcarts were slowly approaching. Jiang Yi, wearing dark green clothes, sat on it, raising his head slightly. The moonlight shone on his face, making it even more white.

At the same time, in the palace, a young man stepped into it. He received the news just as he sat down, with a look of surprise on his face.

"Chen Zhi actually came to Kaiyang? He also invited Jiang Yi? Interesting, let Xie Sa come over. I have to ask what happened in the city recently."

　Thanks to "Jidao Emperor

　　Too tired, I will change it tomorrow when I wake up, I hope you understand.
