Chapter 54(1/2)
The next day, Fang Zheng rushed to the Meridian Gate to wait for court and found that Guo Tianyang was there, and he was also looking at him with a smile.
Fang Zhengyi said hello casually: "Brother Guo, it's so early!"
Guo Tianyang smiled and replied, "My brother, it's early."
As usual, the ministers cast contemptuous eyes. It was indeed a nest of snakes and rats. They openly called brothers and brothers to the eunuchs, which was shameless!
"???" Fang Zheng looked confused.
The dead eunuch takes advantage of me!? Why is this old guy so enthusiastic today?
Guo Tianyang walked to Fang Zhengyi in small steps and said, "I'm so old today that I'm here, but I seem to have adapted to it?"
"Good! I adapted, adapted."
Fang Zhengyi laughed awkwardly, and couldn't figure out Guo Tianyang's routine for a while.
Then, he started to go to court with a lot of doubts, but fortunately he got away with it again.
During the court meeting, the old man occasionally gave Fang Zhengyi a "ambiguous" look.
Fang Zhengyi's scalp was numb! I wish I could castrate him again...
Holding down the discomfort, after going down the court, Fang Zhengyi came to Zhan Shi Mansion with ease.
As soon as I entered it, I saw Li Yuanzhao sitting in the yard with her feet raised, looking bored.
When he saw Fang Zheng coming, he jumped up in surprise: "Lao Fang! You are here!"
"Your Highness, it's early." Fang Zhengyi greeted him relaxed and happy.
Now that Yan Guoan is gone, going to Zhan Shi’s house is like going home!
"Lao Fang, do you want to go to the Tiger and Leopard Garden in the East Palace with me? It was demolished by my father. You just want to help me think about how to build a new one?"
Fang Zheng was suddenly furious, I treat you as a brother, you treat me as a cow!
If His Majesty knows this, he won’t even peel my skin!?
Then he hurriedly said, "What do cats and dogs mean? Those are played by children, and no matter how old he is, he is still a beast!"
"If your highness is interested, go to the sea to fight beasts! I know that there is a monster in the sea called Godzilla, which is extremely large! It can exude...fire in your mouth."
"It's just right for your highness to fight with all-round talents who are civil and military!"
Li Yuanzhao looked at him contemptuously and said, "Haha, don't think I am a fool. I can't breathe in the water, and there are monsters in the water that spit fire. Is this reasonable?"
The child is grown up and can't fool him anymore!
Fang Zheng wiped his cold sweat: "Hehe, Your Highness is wise."
"Then, why not play chess! The chessboard is like a battlefield. Your Highness is not thinking about being a general! I can also see your highness's style by the way!"
Li Yuanzhao was interested and said, "Forget it, no one can beat me in the palace when it comes to playing chess, and there is no enemy in Go and Chess... It's boring."
Fang Zhengyi sneered: "Have you ever thought that they gave in to you? I am proficient in chess skills and I will not accept it for a game!"
What is invincible in the palace? The prince plays chess with the eunuch? Only if he doesn’t win will he have a ghost. At this time, he has to use the method of provoking him.
Sure enough, Li Yuanzhao was excited when he heard this.
"Okay! What do you say? You can choose Go, Chess, Beast Fighting Chess! Let you see the skills of this palace!"
"No, no, no! No, no, those ministers you said don't know! I'll play Goji with you!"
Fang Zhengichi really doesn't know that the rules of those chess are complicated and he is too lazy to learn. He only plays Gozi chess in the county government office. After a few years, he will definitely be proficient.
Li Yuanzhao said in confusion: "What is Gozi chess?"
"Hey! It's very simple. Just use this Go chessboard and chess pieces. The black side will first play. Whoever connects the five chess pieces horizontally and vertically into a row will be considered a win!"
Li Yuanzhao said disappointedly: "Oh, what do I say? It sounds boring, but since you are willing to go to this palace, I will accompany you!"
Haha, young people don’t be too arrogant!
Fang Zheng smiled and said, "Your Highness, don't underestimate this Goji, I am well aware of this."
"It's not interesting to play chess alone, it's fun to have a little lottery."
Li Yuanzhao was intrigued: "What a lottery!?"
"If I win a game, Your Highness will memorize an article or copy a book. If I lose, I will give Your Highness a hundred taels of silver. How about it?"
Li Yuanzhao exclaimed: "Okay, Lao Fang, it seems that your family's money is so much that it can't be spent. I've been gambled!"
Fang Zhengyi sneered: "Your Highness should take good care of yourself! I am still afraid that there are not enough books in the palace!"
Just put it on, and the chess piece and board will be ready soon.
The two sat opposite each other, Fang Zhengyi's expression was relaxed, while Li Yuanzhao looked disdainful.
................
Soon, the first game of chess was over with just one cup of tea.
Fang Zhengyi looked at Li Yuanzhao proudly and said, "How is your Highness!? You owe me an article."
Li Yuanzhao snorted coldly: "What's the pride? I'm still adapting! Come again!"
Fang Zheng shrugged, then come.
This time, Li Yuanzhao's expression began to become serious, and she did not make any moves rashly, and she began to think carefully.
However, it took a short while to lose again in the second set.
"Two articles!"
"Come again!"
"Three articles!"
"Come again!"
...........
Fang Zhengyi was with him in a mess, but Li Yuanzhao didn't win a game!
"Twenty-five articles!"
"Stop talking nonsense! Come again!"
Fang Zheng observed Li Yuanzhao's reaction while watching Li Yuanzhao's reaction. He saw that Li Yuanzhao was fully infused on the chessboard, and he would whisper every time he fell into his mouth.
It can be seen that I am really trying hard to learn and absorb, and my attitude is extremely serious.
Fang Zhengyi couldn't help but be surprised. The prince's point is still very admirable. Once he is immersed in something, he has a spirit of not hitting the wall and not looking back.
By the time of the 37th plate, Fang Zhengyi had already started to have to take it seriously.
Li Yuanzhao's expression was like drunkenness, sometimes giggling, sometimes gritting her teeth.
Fang Zhengyi also started to look serious, but suddenly a burst of rapid footsteps came from his ears to disturb his thoughts. He looked up and saw several eunuchs running over from the Moon Gate.
Just in this dazed moment, Li Yuan made a comeback.
Four white pieces are connected into one, and there is no black chess at both ends, so it is a sure thing to die!
Fang Zheng glanced at the direction of the moon gate, and felt a little unusual in his heart.
Suddenly, I saw a figure in a yellow shirt appearing faintly through the branches, and I quickly lowered my head and continued to look at the chessboard.
The cold sweat is coming at any time... His Majesty actually came...
Damn! I want him to see that I am taking the prince to play Goji chess, isn't it?!
Although His Majesty asked him to teach the prince something new, it didn’t include the scammer!
While Fang Zheng was thinking, Li Yuanzhao urged him: "Lao Fang! Get off quickly! Get off quickly! I am going to win! What else do you think!"
Just as he was talking, Fang Zhengichi's afterwards had already glanced at the figure behind the branches and was getting closer and closer.
Seeing that he had no reaction, Li Yuanzhao urged: "Lao Fang! Do you want to be rude! I have already won this game!"
Fang Zhengyi was thinking of a countermeasure when he suddenly had an idea!
He raised his hand and overturned the chessboard. The chess pieces flew all over the sky and said loudly: "Have chess!"
Li Yuanzhao didn't expect Fang Zhengyi to give him such a trick. He immediately grew up and said angrily: "Lao Fang! You can't afford to play! I won't recite that article anymore!"
Fang Zhengichi said in a deep voice: "Your Highness! This is also one of the ways to play Goji!"
"Your Highness is the crown prince, and the world is your chessboard. If the chess path has reached a desperate situation, will your chess continue to play?"
"At this time, Your Highness should have the courage to overturn the chessboard! The so-called "no destruction" will not be established! If you don't have the spirit of fighting to the death, you will really lose!"
"This is the reason I want to hand it over to Your Highness. Does Your Highness understand... Cough... Cough!"
Li Yuanzhao didn't listen at all and was about to pounce on him and grabbed Fang Zhengyi, but Fang Zhengyi was avoided.
Afterwards, Fang Zhengyi continued: "Your Highness, the king is the one who sets rules for the world! How can he be limited by the rules!"
"This is what I want to tell you! Okay, let's get to this day's class, elbow! Go for dinner!"
Li Yuanzhao grabbed Fang Zhengyi's sleeve and said angrily: "Don't think about silly! I remember every piece I just put, I want to review it!"
To be continued...
