After spending ten days in a state of trepidation, Mrs. Guo always felt uneasy day and night. Li Weiyang saw it and suggested that she go to Tzu Chi Temple to burn incense. Mrs. Guo agreed happily and took her two daughters-in-law with her. The Guo family carriage set off before dawn and came all the way to Tzu Chi Temple on the outskirts of the city. When she arrived in the hall, Li Weiyang still saw Mrs. Guo frowned and couldn't help but comfort her: "Mother, the second brother is fine, don't worry too much."
Mrs. Guo nodded, but her expression did not relax at all. At this time, Chen Bingbing next to her was also frightened. She held the incense tightly in her hand, knelt down devoutly, kowtowed three times to the Bodhisattva, then stood up, muttered to herself, praying for Guo Yan very seriously.
Over the past few days, everyone in the Guo family has been in a state of peace and fear all day long, so they are not interested in eating. When Mrs. Guo went to draw lots to ask about good fortune, Li Weiyang frowned. If the problem could be solved by really raising an incense stick and holding a Buddha's feet, why would Li Weiyang have to work hard to take revenge? Wouldn't it be a big joke to let a person who doesn't believe in Buddhism worship here? She thought about it and asked the little monk: "Is there any good scenery in Tzu Chi Temple for me to visit?"
The little monk turned his eyes and immediately said, "Our Tzu Chi Temple has always been in full bloom. There is a large garden behind it. There are many strange flowers and plants given by noble officials. Every time a female family comes, she likes to sit in the garden. If the lady doesn't dislike it, she can go to enjoy the scenery. When Mrs. Guo and the young lady finish the incense, I will naturally report to the lady."
Li Weiyang smiled faintly: "thank you, thank you."
I really saw many young ladies in groups of three or five, some of whom were familiar faces. Strangely, these people were all in a hurry and headed in the same direction. Li Weiyang looked at Zhao Yue and smiled and said, "It seems that something grand event happened in this temple today."
Zhao Yue couldn't help but say strangely: "What kind of grand event can a monk temple have? What the lady said is so strange."
Li Weiyang pointed to the female pilgrims who looked hurriedly and headed southeast, and smiled: "You didn't see that they all looked hurried, as if they couldn't wait to do something. Is there any character in this monk temple that can attract girls?" Li Weiyang rarely teased others. Zhao Yue looked at Li Weiyang and said curiously: "Miss doesn't seem to be worried about the second young master."
Li Weiyang smiled and said, "Can you solve the problem if you worry? If you can't, what's the use of worrying?"
Zhao Yue looked at Li Weiyang and became more confused: "Miss, my master asked you to come here, but I didn't show up. What does it mean?"
Li Weiyang did not answer, but pointed to the front and said, "Let's go there and take a look. I'll see what kind of people they are, and have attracted so many daughters who come to worship Buddha."
Zhao Yue nodded and followed Li Weiyang. He had just turned around the corridor, but saw an open stream in front of him. Before he could get close, he could feel the coolness of the water splashing. Aside from the stream, there was a huge bluestone, and a young man was sitting on the ground in a flowing white dress. There were no other ornaments on his clothes, only embroidered ink and water poems. From a distance, it seemed like a phoenix rose up. His handsome face was fascinated by many women with every frown and smile. In the reflection of the green water, his long silk hair was just hanging gently, and the plain white clothes turned into a bright color between the green water and red flowers.
Li Weiyang smiled slightly. She had just seen this person not long ago. He was Pei Bi, the eldest son of the Pei family. However, white was originally a symbol of purity. It looked extremely abrupt when it appeared in such a colorful garden. However, Pei Bi gave people the feeling of being elegant and restrained, but today he felt like he was wild and unruly, which was completely different from the past.
But - how could Pei Bi be here? Li Weiyang glanced his eyes gently and saw that there were eighteen people not far from Pei Bi, each of whom was in groups of three, sitting in front of six chess games. The six chess games formed a circle from all directions, just surrounding Pei Bi in the middle.
At this time, Li Weiyang saw a familiar person, and she couldn't help but look at her side: "Why is Miss Wang here?"
Miss Wang was shocked and turned around and saw that it was Li Weiyang. She suddenly showed a hint of embarrassment on her face. That time, Pei Baoer instigated her to see if Li Weiyang was really in the tent, but she was embarrassed. When she saw the other party, she couldn't help but smile a little embarrassed: "Oh, it turned out to be Miss Guo. Don't you know that there will be a blind chess competition here?"
A hint of surprise flashed across Li Weiyang's face: "What, blind chess game? This is really a strange thing, I have never heard of it."
Miss Wang finally recovered a little calm, smiled calmly, pointed to the eighteen people opposite Pei Bi and said, "Look at those people, they are all nobles with reputation and status in the capital, and they only have one common characteristic, that is, their proficiency in chess skills. As we all know, the best chess skills in the capital is the eldest son of the Pei family, but he never easily showed his chess skills. Today, the eighteen people finally invited Mr. Pei to test his chess skills in public."
Li Weiyang laughed: "Are you saying that Pei Bi wants to use one person to fight against eighteen chess players?"
Miss Wang nodded, showing admiration on her face: "Yes, not only the confrontation, but also the eighteen challengers, three people in groups, and six chess games. In the order of the chess games, Mr. Pei has to fight in each chess game. In this way, he must not only remember his own position of moves, but also remember other people's chess paths. Not to mention the difficulty of memory, Mr. Pei has no chess game in front of him, and he will not look at the other party's chess game. Everything has the chess reporter in front of each chess game tell Mr. Pei about the situation of the play on each chess board. Then he makes moves one by one. Do you think this is very powerful?"
Li Weiyang nodded: "It's really amazing." In fact, Li Weiyang has seen people playing blind chess. In her impression, the best chess player can only play two or three blind chess games at the same time. Once he starts playing blind chess, his chess skills will be reduced, but Pei Bi in front of him must play six games at the same time. For him, he must not only remember his own elimination in each game, but also remember the general direction of all chessboards in order to continue.
It turned out to be a master, Li Weiyang smiled without comment. At this moment, Pei Bi actually saw her and said with a gentle smile: "It turns out to be Miss Guo."
Everyone's eyes fell on Li Weiyang. Li Weiyang was wearing a sea-blue silk skirt, with clear eyes and beautiful face. She looked extremely elegant and elegant. She smiled slightly and looked at Pei Bi, quite kind: "Young Master Pei is so elegant."
Pei Bi smiled calmly, and there was no resentment towards Li Weiyang from his expression. Although everyone knew that Pei Hui died miserably, in everyone's eyes, Pei Hui was just asking for it. All this had nothing to do with Miss Guo, so they didn't notice that a sharp light flashed across Pei Bi's eyes. He chuckled softly, and his voice was gentle: "I heard that Miss Guo is also a master of chess. I wonder if you are willing to play this game with me?"
Li Weiyang looked at a chessboard not far away, and looked at it with a smile: "Honor Pei invited me to play these eighteen chess masters together?"
Pei Bi nodded, his face calm: "What? Do Miss Guo feel embarrassed?"
Everyone's eyes fell on Li Weiyang, and there was a complex search in his eyes. A young man in green in the crowd said, "Hey, Mr. Pei, why did you help Miss Guo for no reason? I have never seen her play chess in public!"
Li Weiyang smiled, his voice indifferent: "Maybe it's because Mr. Pei has no confidence in winning,"
Pei Bi nodded and said honestly: "It is naturally difficult to fight against the eighteen chess players with my own strength. If I can get the help of Miss Guo, winning the chess is just around the corner."
After thinking for a while, Li Weiyang guessed that Pei Bi wanted to use a chessboard to further interpret her character and character. She looked over and met the two of them, but they just thought it was tacit. Pei Bi was respectful and polite: "I wonder what Miss Guo wants?"
If he refuses, he will seem inhumane and petty. Li Weiyang smiled slightly: "Since Mr. Pei invites you warmly, why should I refuse?"
The others were extremely surprised when they saw Li Weiyang agreeing. Miss Wang hurriedly grabbed Li Weiyang and said, "Miss Guo, if you don't have confidence in your chess skills, don't agree." The two of them played chess together, which was actually more difficult than traditional blind chess, because they played chess one after another, not only had to remember their own chess game, but also remember the other's chess game. If they could really continue to move this chess game, it was really amazing. But Pei Bi was a first-class chess master. If he lost chess in the end, everyone would think it was Li Weiyang's fault.
Pei Bi seemed to have expected Li Weiyang to agree, and said happily: "Since that's the case, please let everyone play the move according to each chess game. I will fight first, and you will take the move. Then Miss Guo will fight. What do you think?"
Those people were fighting against one of the eighteen and defeating them without any force. When they heard this, they couldn't help but nodded. However, the onlookers quietly bit their ears and said, "Is this Guo Jia crazy? He is showing off his skills in front of so many experts. Those are the first-class chess players in most people. Is she so confident in her chess skills?"
Miss Zhou from the Ministry of Justice’s Office replied: “What do you know? She is so popular! She can play chess with Mr. Pei, even if her chess skills are not very good, she can become famous in the capital.”
Miss Gao from Changping Hou Mansion smiled and said, "Yes, Miss Guo is really shameless. Does she really think her chess skills can compete with so many masters? As the saying goes, experts will know if they have any problems. If they make a fool of themselves, they will not laugh at others' teeth? At that time, even if Mr. Pei loses, she can also say that Guo Jia's chess skills are not good. She has made a plan."
"That's right, I've never heard of her ability to show off. This time I'm so anxious!"
No matter what outsiders say, Li Weiyang always has a warm smile on his face.
In this way, the two-to-eighth battle began. Li Weiyang and Pei Bi did not look at the chessboard, but only listened to the chess reporters next to the chess game to report other people's chess paths, and then they took the moves step by step. Everyone was originally waiting for Li Weiyang to make a fool of themselves, but after two rounds, everyone's expressions changed. Although Pei Bi was a master of chess skills, they did not expect that Li Weiyang was not bad at all and pressed them step by step.
The third group of chess reporters whispered: "Car two and four."
Li Weiyang raised his long eyelashes, revealing his black and white eyes, and sang: "This chess is not right!"
Everyone looked at her, and they showed a strange look for a moment. The chess report asked, "What's wrong?"
Li Weiyang recalled: "I remember that the situation on the chessboard was not like this just now. It seems that someone took another move."
As soon as she said this, the other party's chess player was immediately out of trouble. Wang Guang, the second son of General Zhendong, looked at Li Weiyang and couldn't help but sneer: "If you can't take the chess, we will forgive you. Just sue you and just step down. Don't show off here and make a laugh!" Wang Guang has always been easy-going, but every time he plays chess, he doesn't recognize his emotions. He doesn't care about the momentum of the Guo family in front of him. How delicate is Li Weiyang, if you can't play chess, get out!
Li Weiyang smiled, not angry, but just closed his eyes and thought for a moment, then dismembered Pei Bi, himself and the other party's three chess path in a blind chess situation for more than a dozen moves. This time, everyone's expressions changed. Wang Guang was even more surprised. He looked at Li Weiyang and was so shocked that he couldn't speak.
Li Weiyang looked humble: "I saw that the three of you had just made a decision after repeated discussions. Maybe they were too concerned that they didn't notice that their companions had made a move, so some of you must have taken one more step by accident. Please return this move."
A person plays six chess games at the same time, and cannot even see the trends on the chessboard, but he can accurately tell the trends of the first dozen moves and analyze the other party's flaws. This is simply amazing. Wang Guang's mouth can already be stuffed into the eggs...
Pei Bi smiled softly, with a hint of admiration in his face. Although the other party was his opponent, he had to admit that he felt very proud of having such an opponent.
When the chess reporter reported the fourth game to Pei Bi, Pei Bi frowned and said, "You just said, did the red cannons have four or seven?"
The chess report nodded: "Yes, that's right, please Mr. Pei to take a move."
Pei Bi glanced at him and shook his head: "What you reported was wrong. It was not that the cannons were four-level seven, but that the cannons were three-level seven."
The chess reporter was stunned and then looked at the chessboard beside him. The little marquis of Changping Marquis' Mansion was also sitting next to the chessboard. He immediately whispered: "Yes! Mr. Pei is talking about it! It's the chess of the cannon. Brother Zhao, you reported the mistake!"
As a chess enthusiast, Zhao Sheng was not good at playing chess, but he was very fascinated by playing chess. He did not expect that he was too nervous just now and reported the wrong chessboard. Pei Bi actually responded immediately and corrected his mistake in reporting the chess in time, which showed that Pei Bi was aware of the game. Zhao Sheng couldn't help but sweat. He would report the error when he stood by the chessboard. The other party could remember every step on the chessboard without even looking at it. This memory was really amazing.
The next round came Li Weiyang again. At this time, the situation of the sixth game was not very good. After repeated research, the three of them believed that there was no hope of winning on their side, but they did not see any strange killing moves of Li Weiyang and Pei Bi. After discussion, they proposed a battle. Hearing this, Li Weiyang smiled faintly and said, "If you take three more steps in this game, you won't be able to do it. Why should I agree to the battle?"
The other party was furious: "Then what tricks do you have to defeat us? If not, don't talk big! Just play chess honestly!"
Li Weiyang smiled very gentlely, but said calmly: "I'm sorry, everyone, I won."
These three people looked at the chess game and were stunned on the spot as if they were struck by lightning. Li Weiyang had never seen their chess game. She relied on not only memory, but also mental computing power. When playing blind chess, the virtual disks in her mind were all conceived, and at one time it was six disks. But she was so profound about the calculations of each game, and she only made a move with careful study. Even they could understand at most three steps. Such memory and mental computing power were really terrifying.
Pei Bi smiled. Such scheming and such wisdom were hidden behind such eyes, gentle but cunning... Li Weiyang's biggest advantage is not intelligence, but his obsession with people and things, so that no one can do anything with her. At the same time, she has a strong ability to control the overall situation. Every time she is forced into a crisis by the chess game, she can easily defeat her opponent.
Li Weiyang turned his head and looked at Pei Bi at the same time. Under the gentle surface of the other party, he had a very cruel heart to the enemy. Even if he suffered a blow, he could quickly recover. No matter what the situation was, he could remain sober and make every step of his plan. His heart was punished.
The two of them smiled at each other, and they had a little tacit understanding.
Within two hours, all six games were played, and they were all winning games. Everyone saw it, sighed and applauded.
Miss Wang walked up and said with a smile: "I didn't expect Miss Guo to have such a high chess skills, which is really admirable."
Li Weiyang smiled lightly and his eyes were clear: "It's all thanks to Mr. Pei. If it weren't for him, I would have been unable to support the overall situation alone."
Pei Bi thought to himself, I just deliberately walked out of the stupid move to test, but you can recover the chess path one by one in the crisis. Such a mental power is really lamentable, respectable and terrifying. If possible, I don’t want to be an enemy of you, but you killed my brother. This is blood feud, and we are destined to be immortal. He stood up, bowed to Li Weiyang, and said solemnly: "From now on, I will give this title of the number one chess player to Miss Guo."
Li Weiyang looked at him and looked unmoved: "Young Master Pei is too awarded, I don't have the ability to accept the title of the No. chess player."
Pei Bi smiled, not saying anything.
At this moment, the little monk ran over quickly and said to Li Weiyang with sweat on his head, "Ms. Guo, Mrs. Guo is about to set off and go back. I'm telling me to come and find you."
Li Weiyang nodded, bowed to Pei Bi indifferently, and said, "Young Master Pei, say goodbye."
Pei Bi smiled and gentle and friendly: "Since that's the case, I'll send Miss Guo out." He accompanied Li Weiyang and walked to the entrance of the garden. Li Weiyang suddenly stopped and looked back at Pei Bi, smiling as if he was smiling: "I thought Mr. Pei would like to kill me as soon as he saw me, but I didn't expect you to have such a mind to play chess with me."
Pei Bi smiled as usual: "A person has to experience many unsatisfactory things in his life, from the emperor to the common people, without exception, Pei Hui's death has many reasons, and it is often created by others. For example, Miss Guo, you are unwilling to be enemies of the Pei family, but your position is destined that Guo and Pei can only survive one. You are like this, and I am the same. I understand your situation, and you should also understand my thoughts."
Li Weiyang smiled. Today, she started playing chess, and she was increasingly unable to see through the eldest prince Pei in front of her. She was even more alert and showed no expression on her face: "I'm here to the door. Master Pei, please stay."
Pei Bi smiled slightly and bowed respectfully to Li Weiyang, "Miss, walk slowly."
Li Weiyang walked out quickly, and Zhao Yue looked back at Pei Bi from time to time, feeling scared: "Miss, I really don't understand why you are playing this chess game with Mr. Pei, and I will help him deal with the eighteen masters."
Li Weiyang's eyebrows were calm and answered the question: "This eldest son of the Pei family is a very interesting person. Don't you think?"
Zhao Yue tilted her head and thought for a long time, but she didn't understand anyway. Li Weiyang actually stretched out his finger and tapped her on the head, and smiled and said, "Okay, the time is almost the same. We should go back early."
"But Miss, isn't your master asking for an appointment with you? Let's leave now?" Zhao Yue was so surprised that she couldn't even close her mouth, but Li Weiyang smiled mysteriously and left gracefully.
Mrs. Guo and the two young ladies were already waiting for Li Weiyang in the carriage. Seeing her coming, Mrs. Guo nodded to her and asked the coachman to go back as usual. The carriage drove for another two hours before returning to the Guo family. It was already dark, and Mrs. Guo took them all into the hall. As soon as she entered the door, she took off the cloak outside and immediately ordered all the maids who served in the hall to retreat.
The Duke of Qi and Princess Chenliu were originally sitting in the hall drinking tea, and Guo Cheng and Guo Dun were talking with each other. Seeing Mrs. Guo dismissing her maid, Princess Chenliu couldn't help but look sideways. The Duke of Qi subconsciously looked behind Mrs. Guo, and was stunned for a moment. When he woke up, he couldn't help but sweat fell down. He quickly stood up and said sternly: "Misfortune! Don't kneel down yet!"
The Qingyi entourage who had been behind Mrs. Guo heard this and knelt down to the ground with a heavy expression: "Guo Yan has seen his grandmother and his father!"
Li Weiyang smiled slightly. Today, she gained a lot of money. The purpose was not only to burn incense and pray for blessings, but also to take Guo Yan back to the Guo Mansion. In fact, when Guo Yan first arrived in Dadu, Yuan Lie obtained the news. He secretly sent the letter to Li Weiyang. Li Weiyang decided to tell Mrs. Guo about the matter. Then they made a plan. In the name of burning incense, they went to Tzu Chi Temple and brought Guo Yan back. However, Li Weiyang did not expect that Pei Bi was also in the garden. She did not want the other party to discover Guo Yan's existence, so she deliberately used that chess game to attract everyone's attention.
The Duke of Qi did not have a trace of joy of reunion after a long separation, and was full of anger and scolded: "Do you still have the face to come back?"
Guo Yan raised his head and looked the most similar to the Duke of Qi when he was young. His eyes were like pitch black ink, with long eyes, like a pool of deep water, with very heroic eyebrows, and a shallow beauty groove in the middle of his chin, which made him look even more handsome and handsome. In addition to the heroic spirit of a Confucian general. Among the five sons of the Guo family, even the elegant and suave Director Guo could not compare with his style.
Li Weiyang looked at him and couldn't help but sigh. With such a look and demeanor, no wonder Chen Bingbing has always loved him and wants to marry him at all costs. No wonder Nalan Xue has been obsessed with him until today. There is a kind of power to stabilize people's hearts in Guo Yan, which makes people feel inexplicably moved. This kind of thing is exactly what the romantic young master does not have.
Guo Yan said in a deep voice: "My son is wrong. My son is willing to be punished, but please listen to my explanation." Before he finished speaking, the Duke of Qi had already smashed a cup of hot tea. The teacup hit his forehead all at once. At the same time as the teacup landed, a bloody hole was also smashed on his forehead. Guo Yan did not hum and lowered his head.
Chen Bingbing was already very heartbroken. She quickly stepped forward, knelt in front of Duke Qi, and said tremblingly: "Father, no matter what your husband did wrong, please listen to his explanation. He must have difficulties!"
The Duke of Qi said angrily: "What's his hardship? Guo Yan, even if you lose four battles, you can't kill the main general! Do you know what a serious crime this is! Not to mention that you want to leave the camp with your own troops! This is enough to show that you have the intention to rebel. Are you still the son of my Guo family? Do you dare to come back openly, do you have any brains?!"
Guo Yan listened to his father's scolding without saying a word, but his body was trembling violently, and he could hardly say a word. The words of the Duke of Qi seemed to be whipping slashing at his heart again and again, so he could not say any word to refute. No one in the entire hall dared to speak, it was empty and quiet, which made people shocked. Guo Yan knelt straight, feeling aggrieved, angry, mixed in all kinds of feelings, and sobbing. He suddenly kowtowed to the ground fiercely and said loudly: "Father! If you have finished listening to what your son said, and still think I deserve to die, I would rather commit suicide here!" His voice was extremely sad, as if it was a desperate grief and despair. Li Weiyang couldn't help but feel terrified.
To be continued...
