Chapter 180 Playing a Game of Chess

Chapter 180 The next game of chess
The morning fog has not dissipated yet, Zhao Guangyuan returned to the palace.

Sitting in the main hall, thinking about the wonderful last night, I smiled to myself.The smile is shallow and sweet.He looked at the rubber spoon on his wrist and touched it with a smile.

Last night they returned to the community and first went to Lu Shanchang's house to pick up Chang Zhi. Chang Zhi had already fallen asleep, and they hugged him and put him on his bed without waking up.Xia Xia also said that she looked like a little pig and would not wake up no matter how hard she tried.

He was laughing at the time, but at the same time he was dissatisfied with his son's low alertness.

He and Xia Xia settled their sons and took baths in turn.Seeing that her hair was wet, he blew her hair.That hair dryer is both good and bad.It was naturally better for Bi Daqi to wring her hair with a towel, but before he could feel the softness of her hair, it was dried quickly, which was not good either.

Later, he looked at her and she looked at him. I don’t know who took the initiative, but they... kissed each other...

He slept on her bed, on the big bed in their master bedroom.

He couldn't control it all night, and his once-dead heart beat so fast that it almost flew out.

He kissed her, she was so beautiful that he couldn't get enough of her all night long.It was obvious that they had had physical contact and had grown up together, but... he still felt that he had violated her.Fortunately, he gave in at the last moment.

He should have given her a wedding night.

He can't rush.

Zhao Guangyuan's face was still burning badly as he thought about the scenes last night.Then he laughed again.

After a while, he stopped laughing and shouted towards the door: "Here comes someone."

Cao Cuo came in in response, "Your Highness."

"Go to Changling Village and ask Lin Qiushan to come."

Well?Please Lin Qiushan?Cao Cuo's eyes widened: "Your Highness, isn't it..."

"No. He is very good and misses you often."

Cao Cuo grinned. His Highness was thinking about him! "Old slave, go now."

At Lin's house, Lin Qiu Shan was sucking beef noodles with his eldest son and grandson.In the past, before they were on duty, the family would not let them go to the cemetery hungry, but now that the family has received financial support from their daughter and grandson, their quality of life has soared, and they can now afford beef this morning.

"It's delicious. This beef is chewy."

Lin Qiushan exclaimed happily.Seeing that the eldest grandson was eating without raising his head, he took a piece of beef from his own bowl and gave it to him.

Lin Jingping on the side shouted to stop him: "Dad, you can eat it yourself, he has it."

"What he has belongs to him, and I am happy to give it to my grandson." His eldest grandson is docile, smart and sensible, but it is a pity that he was born in Linghu, otherwise he would be sent to school and he would be no worse than others.

"Grandpa, I have a grandson." Heshun said and was about to take it back to Lin Qiu Shan, but was stopped by Lin Qiu Shan.

When Lin Jingping saw this, he took a piece from his bowl and gave it to his old father.

"You can eat it yourself or cook it for me." Lin Laishan said, but he didn't take it back. His children and grandchildren were filial, which made him feel sweet.

Mrs. Geng watched from the side and told her eldest daughter-in-law: "Go to the kitchen and cut some more pieces."

Lin Qiu Shan disagreed: "That's enough, that's enough. I'll wait for Dong Xue, He Le and others to wake up later and leave some food for them."

"There are a lot of them, so you have to worry about them." Mrs. Geng said as she signaled to Mrs. Wang, who then went to the kitchen with a smile.

"This beef is really delicious. Usually during big festivals, our family can't even share one or two pieces. The whole family doesn't have enough to share, but now we can eat it in such large chunks." Lin Qiushan was quite emotional.

"No. No matter where you think of it, the beef is no longer rare. You can kill it at will and eat it if you want." Lin Jingping felt that God must compensate his fourth sister.

Mr. Geng saw that his grandfather and grandson were eating happily, and said with a smile: "I think these noodles are good, chewy and convenient. Usually when we come back from the fields, we are so tired that we have to make food for the family, so we just knead the noodles. It takes a long time to work, now all the noodles are ready-made, just boil a pot of water, put the ready-made noodles in, and it will be ready in a moment."

It's so convenient.During the busy farming season, there is no need to leave Qiuhua at home to catch up with the family, and there will be one more laborer in the field.

Moreover, it is so fast that it only takes a moment to prepare it and have it in your mouth.

"No." Lin Qiushan nodded in agreement, "This is really convenient."

While eating, Cao Cuo suddenly came to the door and said that His Highness would like to invite Lin Qiushan to come.

When Lin Qiu Shan heard this, he stopped eating his breakfast, put down his chopsticks and started to walk out with Cao Cuo.

"You finish your meal first, there's no rush at this moment." Cao Cuo advised.

"I've had enough to eat, but it's more important to see His Highness." Lin Qiushan packed his bags and followed Cao Cuo to the palace.

When Zhao Guangyuan saw Lin Qiushan, he suddenly became full of words and didn't know where to start.Should I tell the other party that I love your daughter and ask you to allow me to take care of her?

No, no, no, I can't say it.Also, not formal enough.

He suddenly regretted asking Lin Qiushan to come.

"Your Highness?" Before King Lai Yue could speak for a long time, Lin Qiushan mustered up the courage to speak out.

His Highness invited him here. Could it be that something happened to his third son?My heart tightened, "Your Highness, did my son make any mistake?"

Zhao Guangyuan came to his senses and said, "No."

Looking at Lin Qiu Shan, he felt that Xia Xia was somewhat similar to him from Lin Qiu Shan's face.His face couldn't help but become gentler.

"I called you here to ask if Lin Jingning has corresponded with your family? I forgot to tell you before that the family must be careful in what they say and do. Don't miss out on Lin Jingning's behavior, and don't tell outsiders that he is doing things for me. , don’t bring unnecessary trouble to the family.”

Lin Qiu Shan replied hurriedly: "Your Highness, don't worry, the common people have told the family, including the youngest Dongxue. The children only know that Jing Ning was sent out as an errand, and they don't know where he went or who sent him."

Zhao Guangyuan nodded, "Very good." He asked Cao Cuo to give him some snacks and let him leave.

Lin Qiu Shan walked home with a big package in his arms, wondering in his heart, His Highness summoned him specifically just to tell him not to talk too much about Jing Ning?
Wouldn't it be better for Eunuch Cao to tell him about this matter?And used Te Te to summon him?
Lin Qiushan looked at the package in his arms. Could it be that His Highness calling him to ask questions was a lie, but taking the opportunity to send something to him was true?Can't we just let Eunuch Cao or just appoint someone to send it there?

Shaking his head, it's hard to guess His Highness's thoughts.

Linghu who were on duty along the way saw him coming out of the palace, holding a big package, and they all felt envious.

"I don't know what kind of bad luck the Lin family has had. Their sons and grandsons have all been favored by the King of Yue, and they want to go over and serve them."

"Why don't we have such luck? Now Lin Qiushan's family eats and drinks all day long. Everyone is rosy and their children are all fat. I don't know what benefits they have gained."

"Don't tell me, I don't know what good things his family got. Sometimes when I pass by Lin's house, the aroma of rice and meat makes my mouth water..."

"If Lin Qiushan had more than one daughter, I would suspect that he would send his daughter to the King of Yue's bed to flatter her."

Several people laughed as they said this, "Lin Qiushan doesn't have a daughter, I do, and I don't know if the King of Yue would like her or not."

"It shouldn't be this. Haven't you heard that the King of Yue can no longer recruit people, and the four beauties sent from the capital have been sent to guard the tomb."

"Ah, is it true?"...

Lin Qiushan didn't hear the private discussion among the tomb residents, and neither did Zhao Guangyuan.After Lin Qiushan left, he summoned Fang Er again.

He handed several books and a letter to Fang Er, "Send them to the Jiang Mansion and hand them over to Jiang Xiang personally."

"Yes."

When Fang Er came to Beijing in disguise, Jiang Xiang received the letter and hurriedly opened it, thinking that the King of Yue had important instructions. Unexpectedly, he was asked to secretly engrave several books he had written.

Jiang Xiang read through each book, his eyes getting wider and wider as he read them.When Jiang Xiang finished reading, he patted his thigh and exclaimed.He hurriedly recalled Jiang Xuyang and Jiang Wentao.

After the two brothers read it, they also said it was wonderful.

"Your Highness actually created such easy-to-understand words!"

"These numbers, I said that the popular numbers in North and South City were created by His Highness. Father, you still don't believe it. That grocery store was originally His Highness's shop, and these numbers were first used in that shop. The shopkeeper was the one who gave it to me, Father. His Highness’s. I still don’t believe it.”

It’s not that Jiang Xiang doesn’t believe it.

Of course he knew that such easy-to-write and easy-to-recognize numbers came from that grocery store first.It’s just that he thought the King of Yue learned it from somewhere.It is not believed to have been created by the King of Yue.

But now he looked at the book written by the King of Yue himself. It was so detailed that he couldn't help but not believe it.I feel quite proud.

The booklet written by the King of Yue not only clearly lists the usage of those numbers and compares it with Daqi's text, but also records more convenient algorithms for addition, subtraction, multiplication and division. So it would be too easy to memorize the nine-nine multiplication tables with these numbers. convenient.

Jiang Xiang could already foresee that if this booklet became popular, it would be of great benefit to the middle and lower class people, as well as those accountants who were troubled by complicated accounts.

"Xu'er, doesn't your in-law's family have a bookstore? Take these books to your father-in-law and have them printed. Quietly, don't make a big show of it, and don't reveal it to His Highness."

"Yes. Then print a thousand copies each as His Highness said? Is it too much?" Jiang Xuyang was a little unsure. If the issue was printed and could not be sold, it would be a waste of money.

It’s not easy for Your Highness to save some money now.Why don't you test the water a little first?
"Brother, don't worry. When it is printed, I will help His Highness sell it." Jiang Wentao took care of everything.

Jiang Xuyang laughed, "Yes, I even forgot about Wen Tao. Wen Tao loved to participate in various literary and poetry gatherings, and he had many friends. If he couldn't sell it, our family bought one and gave it to everyone. Book."

What to give. "Brother, you are underestimating His Highness. These books are specially selected by His Highness to be the best-selling stories of ghost stories in the capital. When the time comes, they will be printed in such easy-to-understand simplified Chinese characters. It will become easier to read the characters. Buy There will naturally be more people.”

How can it not be sold?

Jiang Xiang nodded aside, feeling that His Highness had made a big move.

"Your Highness has worked hard, and you must take it seriously. Xu'er, you also need to tell your father-in-law to ask him to select a few loyal and strict-tongued guys. These commonly used simplified characters must be written out by me, my father and my son, and then sent to you. My father-in-law will take the mold."

"Yes. The child knows. I will discuss this matter with my father-in-law."

Zhao Guangyuan arranged the affairs of Daqi and went to Hua Kingdom again that evening.

"Dad, this weekend, you promised to spend time with your child, but you left quietly early in the morning without even saying a word to your child." Changzhi hugged him and complained dissatisfiedly.

Zhao Guangyuan glanced at Lin Zhaoxia. After last night, he felt closer and closer to Lin Zhaoxia. "Dad had something important to do, so he left early in the morning. Besides, you didn't get up at that time."

Looking at his son's young face, he said, "In the future, even on the weekends, you will have to get up half an hour earlier. Now your horse's steps are not yet stable. When my father was as old as you, Yinmo got up."

Yinmo?Don't you have to get up before five o'clock? "Dad, Mom said I'm still growing..." She acted coquettishly.

"Have you forgotten what dad told you?"

Zhao Guangyuan's face was serious. When he saw it, he put down the hand holding his clothes. His face was a little frightened and he couldn't bear it. "Going to bed early and getting up early will not affect your growth. Dad has a sense of propriety."

"Oh." Changzhi responded softly, then turned to look at Lin Zhaoxia.

Lin Zhaoxia spread her hands and said there was nothing she could do.

"You made an agreement with your father, but you didn't discuss it with your mother. There's no point in looking for her now. Your father is right. Go to bed early and get up early, and you'll be in good health. It won't affect your growth."

Humph, my mother has become bad too. "But I have to study classics and history at night. I can't go to bed early."

"But you spend all your time playing in kindergarten during the day." Zhao Guangyuan looked at him, "You spend half the time playing. Dad didn't deprive you of your childhood. You are already luckier than dad. Otherwise, you would study at home during the day and not go to kindergarten? At night? You can go to bed early."

"No!" Chang Zhi protested loudly, "Mom, I want to go to kindergarten."

Lin Zhaoxia glared at Zhao Guangyuan, why did she scare the child?

"Go. Your father doesn't want you to go, and your mother doesn't agree. But since you promised your father that you will learn literature and martial arts, you must abide by the agreement. This is what you promised yourself, and you must do it."

"I know, I'll be able to do it when I grow up."

Seeing Chang Zhi doing his homework, Zhao Guangyuan chatted with Lin Zhaoxia about his plans...

Lin Zhaoxia agreed with his idea, "Modern paper is much better than Daqi. Although the printing cost is low, it is not suitable for printing books here and sending them back. It is too eye-catching, and you may have to get a paper come out."

"But...even if you have movable type printing there, you still have to engrave the simplified fonts again, which will probably take a lot of time."

Zhao Guangyuan nodded: "I know it will take some time. But the commonly used simplified characters are only two or three thousand, so it won't take too long. I have been waiting for so long, and I don't care about waiting an extra moment and a half."

"As long as you succeed. If you want to promote simplified Chinese characters in Daqi, in addition to the Zhiguai Huaben, you also need to find some books and stories that inspire people's wisdom. Only in this way can you promote it better and gain support from the middle and lower classes. .”

Zhao Guangyuan looked at her with a smile. She understood what he was thinking, gave him advice and silently supported him.Make him feel warm in his heart.

From the moment he met her, he was no longer alone.

"Why are you looking at me like that?"

"You look good."

Hiss... "Have you become a mouthful yet?"

But in one night, this alienation and politeness disappeared without a trace?Are you thick-skinned?

"You are good-looking to begin with." Zhao Guangyuan added, raising his hand and putting her hair behind her ears, his eyes full of affection.

Let Lin Zhaoxia call him out for changing too quickly.

"What are you wearing on your hand?" Seeing that he was about to retract his hand, his eyes turned to something on his wrist, and Lin Zhaoxia grabbed his hand.

"Hey, isn't this my rubber band? Why is my rubber band on my hand?" I've seen it several times.Why do you keep wearing it?

She looked at his bun and said, "You don't need a rubber band." She thought he was a little strange.

 Sorry, I'll post it first and catch the bug later.
