Comprehensive Martial Arts: Read to become a sage, use martial arts to break the ban

Chapter 166
Chess Sword Yuefu is very big, built with tall stones, standing in the vast desert.

Backed by a green and beautiful hill, a river meanders at the foot of the hill. The source of this river comes from the bottom of the snow-capped mountain, and it will not dry up for many years.

When Qijian Yuefu was built, the old mansion master took a fancy to this piece of land, just like the Jiangnan in his dream.

This land not only has beautiful scenery, but also has a strong atmosphere, which is a blessed land.

Therefore, several monarchs came out of Qijian Yuefu, and most of the previous palace masters were known as emperor teachers.

The Palace Master Taipingling of this generation is the empress' teacher, most of the credit for the empress' success in ascension to the throne belongs to him.

There are three main buildings in Qijian Yuefu, the largest and tallest in the middle is Jianfu, with five-story cornices, magnificent.

On the right is the Yuefu. There are not many people in the Yuefu. The three-story small building is extremely elegant. It plays, plays, sings and dances every day.

On the left is the Chess Mansion, the same three-story small building, black and white, as monotonous as a lump of dirt on the back mountain, it is tiresome to look at for a long time.

This color was determined by the empress when she was studying here. At that time, the chess mansion was being renovated, and the mansion master asked what color the chess mansion should use. The empress said, black and white pieces, black and white.

Thinking of these past events, Yu Louchun, the head of the Chess Mansion, sighed.

Suddenly a gentle voice came from beside him: "Palace Master, are you restless today?"

The person who spoke was Yulouchun's eldest disciple, whose name was Ruan Langgui, and everyone in the house called him Ruan Lang.

Ruan Lang was very good-looking, with beautiful face and vermilion lips, affectionate eyebrows, and a tall and straight body, with broad robes and wide sleeves, like those beautiful men from the Central Plains in the rumors.

Yu Louchun forced a smile: "Ruan Lang always knows me."

"Could it be time to discuss chess with Ah Jiu?"

Yu Louchun was in a daze, was it because of this uneasiness?
Every year after summer, Ah Jiu would come to the Chess Mansion to play a game of chess with her, and often stay in the Chess Mansion for a few days after the game.

"It's indeed time to play chess with Ah Jiu, but recently there have been rumors on the grassland that the golden carriage has picked up the Sword Immortal of the Central Plains. I don't know if he will come."

Ruan Lang smiled: "I'm sure Ah Jiu will come."

Yu Louchun was surprised: "Why are you so sure?"

"Ah Jiu's character is fearless. Even if he really took the woman away, since he didn't hand it over before, he won't hand it over again. If he doesn't come, it will prove that he has a guilty conscience."

"Well."

Yu Louchun deeply felt that what Ruan Lang said was reasonable.

He also heard him say: "Mansion Master, please forgive Ruan Lang for taking the liberty, did you lose to Ah Jiu in that game of chess last year?"

Yu Louchun was startled suddenly, with a look of guard on his face.

Seeing this, Ruan Lang smiled.

At this moment, the two are sitting by the window on the third floor, drinking tea facing each other.

Between the two cups of tea is a chess board made of pine wood, with two boxes of chess pieces, one black and one white, beside the board.

There is no other pastime in the chess mansion, the most thing the master and apprentice do together is to play chess.

In addition, also do some unspeakable things.

Three years ago, Ruan Lang defeated Yu Louchun for the first time.

Yulouchun sadly concedes defeat, and prepares to report to the Taiping Order, and Ruan Lang will accept the position of Chess Mansion Master.

Unexpectedly, Ruan Lang grabbed her, pulled her into his arms, and whispered in her ear: "If I win in the future, Master will accompany me."

Yu Louchun's voice trembled: "How can I accompany you?"

"Accompany me like this now."

She is his master and he is her apprentice, but on the grassland, no one cares about these things.

In the following chess games, Yu Louchun became more and more powerless in the face of Ruan Lang's attack, and lost more and more.

Both she and Ruan Lang know that such a win or loss is not a real win or loss, but after losing for a long time, Yu Louchun really can't win anymore.

Until last year, she lost to Ah Jiu again.

After losing the game, Yulouchun quickly took off his robe, but Ah Jiu fled down the third floor as if seeing a ghost, and ran away overnight.

Yu Louchun was left laughing wildly.

Because he left in a hurry, everyone in Qijian Yuefu thought that Ah Jiu had lost the game, but only Ruan Lang knew that Yu Louchun's chess skills were already vulnerable.

It's time to play chess with Ah Jiu again, I don't know if Ah Jiu will come to the appointment on time, if he comes, Yu Louchun doesn't know how to face him, and he feels uneasy in his heart.

"Don't think so much."

Ruan Lang stretched out his hand, held Yu Louchun's still girlish hand, and stroked it gently.

"You guessed it right, I did lose that chess game last year. I didn't expect Ah Jiu's chess style to be the same as his mother's, which made me lose my mind."

Ruan Lang's eyes flashed: "It's the same as Her Majesty's chess style? How come, their personalities are completely different."

Playing chess knows people, a person's character often determines his style of chess, Ah Jiu is self-willed and free and easy, and the empress is careful at every step, how can the two have the same way?
Yu Louchun sighed again: "The only person in the world who understands the female emperor's style of chess is me, except for the emperor's master, so when I saw Ah Jiu walk out of his mother's chess style, my heart was confused."

"What happened back then...are you still brooding over it?"

"Humph."

At that time, Yu Louchun and the empress were studying arts at the same time, and they were senior sisters. The empress was several years older than her, and she was a senior sister.

The two are collectively known as the Shuangshu of Qifu.

Although Yulouchun started late, he was very talented, and within a few years he caught up with the Empress, and the two won [-]-[-].

What's more, Yulou is born with a beautiful body in spring, with a beautiful face and a beautiful appearance, which is much higher than the ordinary-looking empress.

One day, the first emperor brought the prince to visit Qijian Yuefu.

Under the arrangement of the Taiping Order, all unmarried women came out to meet the ceremony and showed their talents.

Yulouchun saw the handsome and extraordinary prince, and the prince also saw her in the crowd.

On the second day, the first emperor decreed that the crown princess should be selected in Qijian Yuefu, and the candidate fell in Qifu.

Yulouchun knew that it must be the prince's idea, she was surprised and happy, and went to meet the first emperor with the empress.

During the ceremony, the first emperor kept looking at her, and finally showed a satisfied smile.

Unexpectedly, the Taiping Order suggested to the first emperor: "Let Lang Taosha play a game of chess with Yulouchun, and the winner will be the Crown Princess."

The name of the empress's poem is Langtaosha.

Hearing that playing chess was selected, although Yulouchun felt uncomfortable, she made up her mind to win, and wanted to let the late emperor and the crown prince know that besides her looks, her talent was unrivaled.

Thinking of this, Yu Louchun felt a twinge in his heart: "I lost the most critical game of chess in my life. Only then did I realize that the Empress's usual [-]/[-] rivalry with me was just her way of covering up her chess skills."

Only at critical moments did she reveal her sharp minions.

Ruan Lang was very interested in this story, and asked: "Since the empress let you go before, why didn't she continue to let you in the crucial matter of choosing a concubine? From her intelligence, it should be obvious that His Highness the Crown Prince prefers Master you."

Yu Louchun snorted coldly: "This is what makes her scary. What she wants is the position of the crown prince, not the crown prince's liking."

The rivalry between the two kingdoms of Qifu attracts everyone in Qijian Yuefu.

In that game of chess, Yulouchun reached his best state, perfect offense and defense, and did not commit any mistakes.

But she still lost, she had never seen an empress who was as fast as lightning and as ruthless as a tiger or wolf's attack, not hesitating to go sideways with her sword, not hesitating to trade a lot of money, giving her a big deal, and making a fatal blow.

In the end, at the speed of a female emperor, Yulouchun's rhythm was messed up, and she fell into a passive state, constantly changing pieces, and heading for a desperate situation.

"The palace master has known her strength for a long time, so let her use chess skills to reverse her fate."

Speaking of the Taiping Order, they are also disciples who love each other. It was only that day that Yulouchun saw through Master's heart.

"The Palace Master and the Empress belong to the same type of people. In addition to the friendship between master and apprentice, there is also an obsession with the country and the world. The Palace Master believes that only the Empress can realize his ambition."

"So, after the empress entered the king's account, the palace master also went to assist her."

"Well, the mansion master is not assisting the crown prince, but the crown princess. He is the emperor's tutor to the crown princess."

Ruan Lang laughed: "Now he is the emperor's teacher, and it is really a good idea for the palace master to assist the crown princess to become the first female emperor in Beimang."

"Chess players, they are playing a big game in the world, but my chess is only square inches."

Yu Louchun gestured resentfully in front of her chest, her chess was played with her heart.

After this blow, Yulouchun's talent became ordinary in the eyes of others, and she instantly fell from a high fairy to dust.

And Lang Taosha, who was assisted by the Taiping Order, successfully became the crown prince and queen.

In less than a few years, the new emperor died of illness, and Lang Taosha became Beimang's first female emperor amid fierce internal strife among princes and ministers.

I don't know whether it was Lang Taosha's chess style that conquered Taiping Ling, or Taiping Ling reached an agreement with her early in the morning, but just found a suitable time for the former emperor and prince to visit.

No matter what the situation in the middle is, she, Yulouchun, has become a stepping stone for the waves to wash away the sand.

But if she really becomes the crown princess, can she assist the crown prince to successfully succeed to the throne and become a qualified queen?

She doesn't know, but she can be sure that if she followed the prince that day, Taipingling would never assist her, and Beimang would definitely produce a female emperor.

When also, together also.

People also, luck also.

Ruan Lang said with a smile: "Even so, no one in Qi Fu can beat Master."

Yu Louchun smiled sweetly: "Three years ago, I already lost to Ruan Lang."

Ruan Lang smiled: "It doesn't matter, the chess you play is only in the square inch, you lose the chess, but you win your own heart."

Yu Louchun brushed his hair, his eyes widened: "Ruan Lang thinks I lost on purpose?"

"I don't know if you lost on purpose, I only know that you lost well."

When the golden carriage arrived at Qijian Yuefu, the entire sect was in a sensation.

The Ninth Prince helped down a beautiful woman from the car. There was a frosty sword hanging on the woman's waist.

"A female sword fairy from the Central Plains?"

Jian Qi approached Huang Qing and asked, frowning.

The Taiping Order is not in the mansion, if there is a major matter, it will be discussed by the masters of the three mansions of Sword, Chess and Le.

"Exactly, Ah Jiu sent her here to witness the sword with the Lord of the Sword Mansion."

Yan Zhen was grinning, as if he had never heard of the whole grassland's pursuit of the Central Plains female sword fairy.

Huang Qing, Yu Louchun, and the master of the Yuefu met each other happily, and the three of them looked at each other in dismay.

Yulouchun was the closest to Yanzhen, and asked with a smile, "Ah Jiu, you are not afraid of your mother, but Qijian Yuefu is afraid of Your Majesty the Empress."

Yan Zhen chuckled: "The Sword Immortal of the Central Plains came to Chess Sword and Yuefu to prove his sword. Don't tell me our swordsmen from Beimang dare not accept the move?"

"Ninth Prince, don't make things difficult for us."

Xiangjianhuan was a little dissatisfied, he had never been in love with the prince, and he had never liked this prodigal brother of his friend.

Yanzhen shrugged: "You can do whatever you want, she is not looking for me to prove the chess skills."

Li Hanyi ignored the expressions of these people, she stood there, her white dress was blown by the breeze from the north, like a flying sky dancing at any time.

It's just that what she said instantly made the people in Chess and Sword Mansion furious.

"Li Hanyi traveled thousands of miles to ask about swords. Hong Jingyan is dead. Is there no one from Qijian Yuefu?"

Yu Louchun was a little gloating, she was going to challenge the Sword Mansion, let's see how Huang Qing would respond.

Among the three Palace Masters, Huang Qing is the most favored by Tai Ping Ling, and nine times out of ten, he will inherit the position of Grand Palace Master in the future.

Xiangjianhuan has a good relationship with Ah Jiu's brother, the prince, so naturally he doesn't like Ah Jiu's behavior.

Only Yulouchun herself was indifferent to this Central Plains female sword fairy who was said to kill people like hemp, but her face was really beautiful, better than herself when she was young.

Inadvertently, Yu Louchun glanced at Ruan Lang, and saw that he was also looking at Li Hanyi, with a strange spark in his eyes.

Yu Louchun was suddenly annoyed, Ruan Lang's body odor still remained on her body, but at this moment, he was actually looking at other women infatuatedly.

The three palace masters have different thoughts.

Huang Qing couldn't refuse in the end, Hong Jingyan was dead, and only Huang Qing could overwhelm the Central Plains Sword Immortal in the way of swordsmanship.

The punishment of His Majesty the Empress and the dignity of Beimang swordsmanship, Huang Qing chose to prove the way with the sword.

"Then, let Jian Qi approach to learn the sword way of the Central Plains."

Yanzhen clapped his hands and applauded: "Sure enough, our Beimang swordsmanship can only be maintained by the Master of the Sword House."

Li Hanyi cupped his fists: "Thank you, Chengquan."

Huang Qing stretched out his hand to invite: "Invite Xueyun Sword Immortal to enter Chess and Sword Yuefu."

Eleven drove the golden carriage into the mansion, and Miss Ashi followed behind Li Hanyi.

The three palace masters, together with more than a dozen heavyweight Cipai owners in the three palaces, walked towards the sword tower in the middle together.

In this tall building, the entire first floor is set up as a martial arts hall, with a radius of ten feet, which can accommodate thousands of people at the same time.

Except for the surrounding seats and weapon racks, there is nothing in the middle, which is where the annual examination of Chess Sword Yuefu takes place.

Apart from the master of the Sword Mansion, whose sword energy is close to Huang Qing, there are three other swordsmen present at the moment. Although they are not as high as Hong Jingyan's ranking in the Northern Mang Martial Arts Review, they are also swordsmen above the first rank.

Among them, Yugezi has entered the Finger Profound Realm, second only to Huang Qing and Hong Jingyan.

Seeing Li Hanyi standing still in the martial arts hall, Yu Gezi took the initiative to ask for a fight: "Mansion Master, please let me compete with the Central Plains Sword Immortal first."

Yu Gezi was obsessed with swords in his life, but the way of swordsmanship in Beimang was not good, and it was difficult for him to find opportunities to prove swords, except for his fellow students of Qijian Yuefu.

When he saw this Central Plains female sword fairy who killed Hong Jingyan with his own eyes, he was not frightened, but aroused a challenge.

It's hard to see a master, how can you miss it.

"To prove the sword, the winner has no shame, and the loser has no regrets. Yugezi, do you have the consciousness to live and die?"

"Please Palace Master complete it."

Live for the way of the sword, why not be afraid of dying for the way of the sword.

It's not easy to train an excellent swordsman for Bei Mang. Huang Qing didn't want to let Yugezi play, but if he didn't agree, it would also be a cruel blow to his sword heart.

Huang Qing thought for a moment, then nodded and said: "Then invite Yugezi to fight for Chess Sword Yuefu."

Yugezi walked towards Li Hanyi, and the battle was on the verge of breaking out.
