The Grand Secretary’s Pampered Wife

Chapter 341 Talent (6)

The old beggar almost spat out a mouthful of old blood——

Do all the little dolls now have such a big tone?

The old beggar rolled up his sleeves: "If you are capable, you will play a game with me! I will let you win nine! If you can beat me... Forget it, you don't have to beat me, you win if you tie with me! I will give you this Ten taels of silver!"

"Okay." Gu Jiao replied without thinking.

The old beggar looked at Gu Jiao suspiciously: "You promised so readily? Aren't you afraid that I'll renege on you?"

Leaving aside whether he has self-confidence, this baby must be conceited if he dares to speak wild words, but he is an old beggar, so she is not afraid of his cheating?

"Not afraid." Gu Jiao shook her head and said.

The old beggar took a deep look at her and nodded secretly.

Although the little baby is a bit arrogant, she has a pure heart and is willing to trust others.

Gu Jiao: You think too much, if you dare to renege on your debt, I'll beat you up!

The old beggar cleaned up the stone pieces on the chessboard, put them into two broken bowls according to their colors, and put a bowl of black stones dotted with ink in Gu Jiao's hand: "You hold black."

Do black first.

He said he would let her have nine sons.

Gu Jiao wasn't too polite, she didn't force her to let him go, that's right.

The old beggar looked at Gu Jiao's first chess piece, it was well-regulated, with three or four small eyes, if he clicked three or three, he would be able to survive immediately, but he promised to let her nine pieces, and then we will see how she takes the ground and power.

The previous nine sons, Gu Jiao, all walked away without any surprises, making the old beggar feel that she wasted the nine sons he gave her for nothing.

Can she play chess? It wouldn't be just a blind cat bumping into a dead mouse to break his chess game just now, right?

"Okay, it's your turn." Gu Jiao said to the old beggar.

The old beggar held a white piece...it was actually a small stone, and it fell on the chessboard.

An old man and a young man were squatting on the road and playing chess. One had a book spread out on his head, and the other was wearing a mask. The moves on the chessboard were messy and weird.

From time to time, people passed by and stopped curiously for a while, but they couldn't understand what they were doing.

"Is there anyone who plays chess like this?" asked a young scholar. He knows how to play chess, but he has never seen this kind of play. It's just too ridiculous, okay? Don't attack where you should attack, and don't defend where you should defend.

"An old beggar and an old lunatic, do you expect him to really know how to play chess? That kid is probably out of his mind, and he actually played with him."

"I see both of them are madmen,

Or it's a fool, what the hell are you playing! "

"Let's go! What's so interesting about two idiots playing chess! Why don't you go to Qinghuan Chess Club, I heard that there are some masters there, and today there will be three master games! Have you heard of Maoshan Layman?"

"Why hasn't Layman Maoshan heard of it? That's the master of our Zhao Kingdom! Is he also in the Qinghuan Chess Club?"

"That's right."

"Then you have to go and have a look!"

The people who were still watching all dispersed when they heard the name of Layman Maoshan. There was only a three-year-old kid eating candied haws. He didn't know how to play chess. He just found a place to steal candied haws.

Both the old beggar and Gu Jiao are not people who will be surprised by others. Whether they are ignored, or whether they are applauded or ridiculed will not affect the two of them.

The two concentrated on playing chess.

If that layman from Maoshan came here, he might be able to see what kind of turbulent murderous intent and turbulent waves are hidden in the seemingly chaotic chess game.

The old beggar was really careless at first, but after walking a few steps, he noticed something was wrong.

What a tricky trend!

Let her nine sons seem to be one in the east and one in the west, without any rules, but in fact they are a huge net, blocking his every way out tightly.

In the second half of the round, he played seriously, and finally tied with Gu Jiao.

The old beggar laughed in surprise: "Little baby, you are the first one to draw with me at such a young age. Where did you learn from?"

"There is no teacher." She watched people play chess in the park in her previous life, and then she learned it by herself, and occasionally played chess with her godfather.

The godfather is a very busy person, but as a reward for her completion of tasks, he will take a little time to play with her.

The old beggar looked at Gu Jiao seriously to make sure she was not lying, and now he was really surprised.

Today's tie is mainly due to his careless underestimation of the enemy, thinking that this little baby will not be able to play, so he will go down in a mess. If he walks seriously from the beginning, even if he loses nine hands, he can still win this little baby .

But this little doll didn't find someone to learn chess, in other words, she figured it out by herself.

This talent is scary.

The old beggar said again: "Then have you ever played chess with an expert?"

Gu Jiao thought for a while: "Hmm... Have you ever played chess?"

The godfather should be regarded as an expert, anyway, she never beat him.

The old beggar secretly breathed a sigh of relief, this is not too bad, otherwise it would be too scary if only she and herself have reached such a level.

However, even if it is the experience of playing chess with masters, it is not easy to figure it out.

Is a gifted child.

The old beggar looked at Gu Jiao appreciatively, and was about to ask her name and where she lived, but Gu Jiao opened the mouth before him: "As you said, if it's a tie, you lose, money!"

The corner of the old beggar's mouth twitched.

Can you not spoil the atmosphere at a critical moment?

With a dark face, the old beggar took out a few pieces of broken silver from his wrinkled money bag, which added up to almost ten taels, which was all his belongings.

He handed it to Gu Jiao: "I'll give you everything!"

Gu Jiao counted, weighed again, picked out the smallest one and gave it back to him: "I told you it's only ten taels."

No kidding!

After Gu Jiao took the money, she got up and left.

The old beggar stopped her: "Hey! Wait! You haven't said your name yet! Are you still coming tomorrow?"

Gu Jiao walked away.

"A round of twelve!"

Gu Jiao is back again.

The old beggar: "..."

...

Gu Jiao went back to the clinic and changed her clothes.

Xiao Qingkong ran into her small courtyard: "Jiaojiaojiaojiao!"

Running too fast, he gurgled and fell down again.

Fortunately, the little monk's reputation for wrestling was not in vain. He hugged his head and rolled halfway across the yard like a little wax gourd to the front of the steps.

Then he got up as if nothing had happened, and walked up the steps arrogantly, without being squeamish at all!

"Jiaojiao!"

He grabbed a letter and went into Gu Jiao's room.

Just as Gu Jiao put away the mask, she turned to look at him: "School is over so early today? Who brought you here?"

"Brother Yan." Xiao Jingkong said.

It's not a free gift, he gave the travel expenses!

That's right, in order to expand his debt repayment business, Gu Yan developed a project to send the little guy to the medical center after school, 20 copper coins per trip.

"Where are the others?" Gu Jiao took the little guy by the hand, brought him to the washbasin stand, and fetched water to wipe his sweat.

Xiao Jingkong obediently handed over his little head, and let Jiaojiao wipe it off for him: "He met his classmate outside the medical hall, and he was talking to him!"

"Did you fall again?" Gu Jiao finished wiping his little head and found that there were a lot of grass clippings on his body.

"Hmm." Xiao Jingkong suddenly felt aggrieved, pulled up his trouser legs, and said tearfully, "It hurts!"

Gu Jiao looked at his... wound that didn't exist, and washed his face and hands again: "Okay, rub it for you."

Xiao Qingkong squinted his eyes with great enjoyment.

After rubbing his calf, Gu Jiao looked at the letter in his hand: "What are you holding?"

"Letter!" Xiao Jingkong said, "I have received a letter from Brother Ming'er!"

Ming'er, the son of Prince Yu and his wife, the young envoy of Liang Guo, when they left, the two little fellows agreed to exchange letters.

Unexpectedly, Ming'er's letter came so soon.

"I want to watch it with Jiaojiao!" Xiao Jingkong said seriously.

Gu Jiao bent the corners of her lips: "Okay."

Xiao Qingkong climbed onto Gu Jiao's lap, sat down in a comfortable position, rested his head on Gu Jiao's arm, and handed the letter to her: "Jiaojiao, read."

Gu Jiao opened the letter.

"Clean space dear--

Jingkong, Jianxin is safe and well, I am brother Ming, do you remember me? The trip to Zhaoguo has yielded a lot, and I am so happy that I don’t think about Shu. After returning, I miss you and brother Yu very much. How are you two? "

The letters written by the children's families were not all vernacular, but Gu Jiao understood the general meaning.

Ming'er and Prince Yu's couple have already returned to Liang State, and they arrived three days ago. After that, Ming'er began to fulfill her promise to write a letter to Xiao Jingkong.

Ming'er delivered the letter from the Falcon of Prince Yu's Mansion to the royal post of Zhaoguo, which is why Xiao Jingkong was able to receive Ming'er's letter so quickly.

Liang Guo is very hot, Ming'er said in the letter that he is about to become a steamed bun, because he will be ten years old soon, he is no longer a child, and it is time to learn the etiquette that a county king should have, so he will be very busy next time.

In the process of returning to the king of Liang, a major event happened: the king of Liang was dissatisfied with Prince Yu's arbitrarily advocating the exchange of glaze technology to Zhao, which almost punished Prince Yu.

From here, Gu Jiao could see how much concession Prince Yu had made for Ming'er.

However, the letter also stated that Prince Yu was not punished in the end because Ming'er presented the long-lost original music score "Zhaoying" by Master Yueying.

Master Yueying is the number one musician in the Six Kingdoms. He not only made the highest quality Fuxiqin imitation Yueying, but also created the masterpieces "Jinghong" and "Zhaoying" suitable for playing with Fuxiqin and jade flute.

"Jinghong" is the first half of the song, and the score is in the Liang Palace, but the score of "Zhaoying" has been lost.

Lord Moon Shadow herself disappeared from Liang Kingdom five years ago.

Liang Guoguo is very fond of rhythm, and he is also proficient in rhythm. He recognized at a glance that it was Master Yueying's original manuscript, and he was so excited that he didn't speak for a long time.

Because of the lost and recovered score of "Zhaoying", King Liang pardoned Prince Yu's fault.

Ming'er said in the letter that he did not expect Xiao Jingkong to give him such a precious thing.

Well, in fact, Ming'er chose it at will.

The practice gift Xiao Jingkong gave Ming'er was a gold decoration, and Ming'er felt that it was too expensive to have, so she picked a piece of torn paper that she thought was not expensive at all.

I don't know if this means that children who are not greedy sometimes eat more candies.

In the letter, Ming'er strongly expressed her gratitude, and told Xiao Jingkong that he also prepared a gift for him and was on his way.

In addition, Ming'er also asked Xiao Jingkong how he got the music score, did Xiao Jingkong know Lord Moon Shadow?

Xiao Jingkong spread his hands: "I don't know, those are things that Master doesn't want!"

The corner of Gu Jiao's mouth twitched: No, something you don't want?

Is an old monk with a white beard so stupid?

In a certain inn in a certain city in a certain country, a handsome young monk with a tear mole under his right eye who was drinking wine and eating meat, sneezed mercilessly: "Ah!"

The moonlight is like a hook.

In the small study room of the Eastern Palace, the Crown Princess is sitting on a cushion, concentrating on playing chess.

She is herself and herself.

The little maid serving at the side gently fanned her.

"Well, it's over." She let out a long sigh of relief after dropping the last piece, and ordered, "There's no need to fan."

After the rainstorm, the weather is not so muggy.

"Yes." The little maid closed the fan.

The female officer stepped forward and asked: "Crown Princess, are you still going down? Why don't you take a break, get up and walk, you have been down for a long time."

"Ah, that's good." The princess also felt her body was a little stiff and sore, she stretched out her hand.

The female officer hurriedly stepped forward to help her, and said to the little maid beside her, "Go get some snacks and make a pot of scented tea."

"Yes!" The little maid took the order and went.

The princess walked to the bed, and there was a cool night breeze blowing slowly, carrying the fragrance of the whole courtyard, which made people feel refreshed.

The crown princess stood in front of the bed, staring blankly at the closed flowers in the garden, and she didn't take the refreshments offered by the little maid.

The little palace lady looked at the female officer in embarrassment.

The female officer took the tray from her hand and said in a low voice: "I'll do it, you step back."

"Yes."

The little palace lady withdrew as she said.

The female officer put the tray on the table beside her, poured a cup of scented tea and handed it to the princess: "Princess, drink tea."

The princess sighed, took the teacup and took a sip.

The female official asked, "Is the princess on your mind?"

The Crown Princess looked at the tea in the cup: "I don't know if your Majesty's letter to the Five Kingdoms has been received by them?"

The female officer said: "Princess, is your Majesty telling you to crack the Kun Bureau? Chen Guo is the closest to us, so we should have received it, followed by Jin Guo and Liang Guo."

"Where's the country of Yan?" the crown princess asked.

The female officer thought for a while: "Yan Country... the distance is not the longest, but there are too many checkpoints, and many places do not allow us to go to the country."

Yan State is the overlord of the Six Kingdoms, and it has firmly occupied the position of the leader. It says that no one will be allowed to pass, and no one will be allowed to pass.

The female officer continued: "However, it should be soon."

The concubine's eyes moved slightly: "I don't know if I can make Mr. Meng look down on me?"

The female officer smiled and said: "It will definitely be possible! The Crown Princess is the first person in the Six Kingdoms to crack the Kun Bureau. How can Mr. Meng not be amazed by your talent?"

The Crown Princess murmured: "It would be great if... I could be Mr. Meng's disciple."

In this way, she has the backing and background of Yan Kingdom.

Only when a person has been deeply hurt can he remember it unforgettable.

To this day, when she thinks of the experience of going to Liang as an envoy, she still feels like a prick in her heart!

Obviously she has the best knowledge and the highest talent, but she just has no chance to speak, no one pays attention to her, no one cares about her, she shines like a bright pearl in Zhao country, but she just fell into the sea when she went to Liang country. grain of corn.

They didn't care about her extraordinary strength, nor did they care about her beauty.

They admired those unattractive girls, and praised them for their appearance and dignified manners, but it was obvious that they couldn't even take a small step as decent as her.

In order to shine in Liang Guo, she walked 10,000 steps a day, her legs and feet became numb, and she was the most elegant one when saluting.

But who cares?

She watched those so-called daughters of the Shang Dynasty answering the simplest questions and reciting the most meaningless Fu, and she was sitting so alone in the corner.

Finally, no one could answer, and she thought her chance had come, but unexpectedly, she heard the princess of Liang Guo say: "Since that's the case, today is the end. Congratulations to Miss Murong, Miss Lin, and Miss Zhuge for becoming Ben." The top three in this banquet! This princess will reward you a lot!"

Front, third, first? !

Ridiculous.

This level can also become the top three, but the really capable self has been sitting on the bench all night.

Miss Zhuge in the top three is from Zhao State, and Zhao State is also from the State of Zhao, but because she has a teacher who is a great Confucianist from the State of Shang, she was also promoted by Princess Liang.

In fact, Mr. Meng is also a native of the country. After he became the chess master of the Six Kingdoms, he was personally invited by the king of Yan to come to the capital.

If she can worship under Mr. Meng's name, then she will never be underestimated again, she will have the opportunity to compete fairly with others, and she will be famous in the six countries with her real ability!

But after making a bet of ten taels of silver with Gu Jiao, the old beggar fell into deep melancholy.

There is no other reason.

He is a beggar, where did he get the money?

Twelve taels are all good things he managed to save!

But if not, then the little baby would not play chess with him.

The old beggar was helpless.

When passing by a chess club, he heard people coming out of it sighing: "Unexpectedly, layman Maoshan lost. That new chess player is so good, I would have bet on him if I knew it!"

The old beggar had an idea and stopped him: "Little brother, do you want to earn back the money?"

Crown Princess: God rewards the meal! ╭(╯^╰)╮

Jiaojiao: God is chasing and feeding me! o(*￣︶￣*)o
