After the cannon fodder mother wears the book, the male protagonist's son is more expensive tha

Chapter 501
"Liu Niang, just follow your own thinking later, don't worry, I promise I won't hold you back." Xiao Yan came to her side under Li Ruoyu's shocked gaze, and said to her.

"But we have never played chess together." Li Ruoyu was not relieved by Xiao Yan's words.

She originally planned to let Gu Yunzhang form a team with her.Although Gu Yunzhang doesn't specialize in chess skills, it is not the level of chess skills that determine the outcome of the four-person game, but the tacit understanding between the two.All things considered, no one is more suitable than Gu Yunzhang.

"Trust me." Xiao Yan said confidently, "You will win or lose this game of chess. As long as you concentrate on playing, we will definitely not lose."

……

The table, chairs and chessboard were quickly set up, and the four sat down one by one.

Because it is "performing art" on top of the banquet, in order to prevent the situation of a few hours from happening again, it is stipulated in advance that the time of two incense sticks should be used as the standard.The two sides don't have to fight to the end. When the time is up, the winner or loser will be judged according to the situation on the chessboard at that time.

This undoubtedly increases the difficulty of the game, but also increases the enjoyment.

Hold the black first, and Hanoi Zhongxiong will drop the first son.

Li Ruoyu pinched his hands and fell white.

Hanoi Zhongxiong's junior looked at Hanoi Zhongxiong before placing the chess piece, and then placed the chess pieces on the chessboard.

Hanoi Zhongxiong showed a satisfied expression.

Next it was Xiao Yan's turn to make a move, and after picking up the pieces, he looked at Li Ruoyu first, and then made the move calmly.

"Crack." The chess piece collided with the chessboard with a light sound, which was not obvious in the crowded hall.But this soft sound knocked on Li Ruoyu's heart - Xiao Yan's second child was exactly where she wanted to be!

It's only the second son, maybe it's just a coincidence, Li Ruoyu thought to himself.She suppressed her surprise and watched Hanoi Zhongxiong drop the third sunspot.

She landed the third white piece.

After the fourth black piece fell, the white piece in Xiao Yan's hand was placed on the chessboard without hesitation.

It was the position she wanted again!
Li Ruoyu turned to Xiao Yan in surprise.

"I said, I promise to keep up with your steps." The boy said with a smile, "As long as you are confident that you can win, we will not lose."

……

When the time passed to half a stick of incense, Hanoi Zhongxiong also realized that he underestimated today's opponent.

"Snapped."

When Hanoi Zhongxiong wanted to stop it, it was too late, his younger brother had already put the sunspots on the chessboard.

This location is not optimal.

Kurouchi Nakao wanted to speak but stopped, and gestured towards his junior with his left hand.

The younger brother understood immediately, with remorse showing on his face.

"What are they doing?" Immediately, a sharp-eyed person saw the interaction between Hanoi Zhongxiong and asked, standing up and pointing to their hands.

"I saw it too, they're cheating!" Gu Yunzhang was the second to stand up, her grandfather Gu Qingshan didn't have time to stop him.

"It was stated in advance that verbal communication is not allowed, but it did not say that other methods of communication cannot be used." At this time, a person in the Japanese envoy's seating area stood up and responded, "We communicated with gestures and did not speak, so it is not considered cheating."

"It's hard for a minister of a small country to enter the hall of elegance." Gu Yunzhang scolded directly when he heard the words, "Is the performance you're talking about just imitating dumb people to make gestures with their hands?"

"Hanoi is just in a moment of desperation, why is the little lady holding onto it?" The messenger motioned her to look at the four players who were playing chess. Hanoi Zhongxiong only made a gesture just now, and there has been no sign since then.

The noisy empress in the hall seemed to have not seen at all, and did not say a word.

Sun Zhao'er, the female minister who opened her second mouth as the empress, did not speak either.

Seeing this, the Japanese envoy who was arguing with Gu Yunzhang slowly sat back in his seat.

Gu Qingshan looked at his granddaughter and motioned for her to sit back.

Gu Yunzhang obediently sat back in his seat, but he didn't look away from Hanoi and Zhongxiong, and kept staring at them.

This small disturbance did not affect the four players playing chess in the center of the main hall. Others could not see the chess game, but could only see the four hands taking turns, making moves like flying.This kind of speed and posture has never been seen in ordinary chess games.

After burning a stick of incense, the speed of the two holding the sunspots slowed down quickly, getting slower and slower.

The onlookers had their own opinions. Some thought that Li Ruoyu and Xiao Yan were so imposing, while others thought they were too hasty. Those who didn't know thought they were just playing house.

So far, Li Ruoyu no longer has any worries.

According to what Xiao Yan said, she concentrated on playing chess without distractions.Because she knew that Xiao Yan could place each chess piece exactly where she wanted to go.

Hanoi Zhongxiong has been paying attention to Xiao Yan since he was half a stick of incense.

He didn't understand how Xiao Yan and Li Ruoyu had such a tacit understanding that they were like the same person.

He and his younger brother ate and slept together in the same school, grew up together, and have accumulated a tacit understanding through years of practice.But two people can't be the same after all, they can't achieve absolute tacit understanding.

On the other side, it was clear that two people were making moves, but the style of chess was so consistent that it was seamless.If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, Hanoi Zhongxiong would never have imagined that there was another person beside Li Ruoyu.

why?How did he do that?
The empress suddenly stood up from the dragon chair, without a cane, and walked down the steps with the support of her eldest grandson Zhao'er.

Under the gaze of everyone, the four players approached the chess game, and finally stood beside Zi Ali and Xiao Yan.

Everyone looked at her for a while, and the perennial majestic face slowly showed a subtle joy.

This move of the empress fell into the eyes of everyone, and naturally there were various interpretations.

……

The empress stood beside Xiao Yan for half a stick of incense until the end of the game.

"Bai Zi wins." Before Dr. Chess came forward to make a judgment, the Empress directly announced the result.

There was a brief silence in Linde Hall.

"Congratulations, Miss Li, congratulations to Shizi Xiao."

The sound of congratulations came like a wave.

So far, the New Year's Eve banquet has reached a real climax.

"Reward." The Empress Longyan was very happy, and asked Xiao Yan and Li Ruoyu directly, "Whatever you two want, just ask me directly."

Li Jingjie didn't dare to predict that Li Ruoyu would win this game, let alone that the empress would be so happy.

"I don't know yet, what's your name."

"My daughter, Li Ruoyu." Li Ruoyu said, "It is my honor to be able to perform for Your Majesty, and I dare not ask for a reward."

"See what your grandfather is doing?" Seeing Li Ruoyu watching Li Jingjie, the Empress said, "I'm asking you. The Son of Heaven promises everything, and since I promised you, I will do it."

Your Majesty is about to reward it in public, what a great honor, everyone thought in their hearts.

Everyone is waiting, what wishes will Li Ruoyu and Xiao Yan say.

Li Ruoyu's heart was pounding, and she suddenly understood why Gu Yunzhang fell in love with a person at first sight.

A crazy idea flashed in her mind, and she even wanted to go crazy and say it.

But in the end, rationality defeated madness. She nodded slightly, and after thinking about it, she said: "My daughter also wants to be a chess doctor like my grandfather was when he was young."

"Okay. Then I will give you the post of enshrined in the Imperial Academy, enter the Imperial Academy, and become a doctor of chess."

Whoa!All the officials in the palace stared wide-eyed.

We must know that the imperial court promulgated the law that women can take the same imperial examinations as men, but it has been a law for many years that men can be officials in the same dynasty, but so far there is only one female official in the imperial court, Changsun Zhao'er.

During the period, there were a few daughters of officials who participated in the scientific examination, but due to various reasons, none of them could really enter the court.

This Liuniang of the Li family is about to enter the imperial court as an official, and even enter the imperial school as a teacher!
How old is she!
