Chapter 015
It is said that Chen Tuan had an adventure as a young boy. When he was only four or five years old, he was playing on the shore of Turbulent River, and an old woman in blue clothed him breast-feeding him. From then on, Chen Tuan became increasingly wise and enlightened.
, will never forget it at all, and is famous for his poetry.
After the Five Dynasties, in the middle of the Changxing period of the Tang Dynasty, he went to the imperial examination and failed, so he did not ask for a salary or official position, but took pleasure in mountains and rivers. He lived in seclusion in famous mountains and rivers, learned the method of dragon sting, and attained the Tao while sleeping. Therefore, he was the best at sleeping in his life. It is said that his poems, books,
Yi, medicine, know everything. The Ming emperor's way of domination can predict the rise and fall of a country, the blessings and misfortunes of people. He has interacted with several emperors, especially Emperor Taizu, who was both a minister and a friend. He had a deep relationship and left many good stories.
.
"And now when the country is broken, does the sudden appearance of two people in His Royal Highness King Wei's dream mean something?" Liu Fu was confused. If it were other times, no matter who told him about such a strange thing, he would probably
I laughed it off, but it's different now.
First, when the country was in danger, Zhengshuo had surrendered, and the newly established small court was chased around like dogs, without even a foothold, and could only float on the sea day and night, living a precarious life; secondly,
When Liu Fu's life was hanging by a thread, it was the little prince who gave him the elixir that saved him from danger; and it was the sudden storm that saved them from falling into the hands of the Mongols.
When people are most helpless, many people may choose to turn to omnipotent and illusory gods, hoping to help them resolve the crisis. Especially in an era when the theory of gods and ghosts is prevalent, there are probably few exceptions. Now Liu Fu is in
In the midst of anxiety, he wanted to try to get rid of the passive situation but was powerless. Naturally, he wanted to grab any floating straw. Even if it subverted his previous understanding, he couldn't help but believe Zhao Bing's words for the first time.
"Your Highness, the two ancestors didn't say anything to you or give you any advice?" Liu Fu asked impatiently. He wanted to know if what your Highness has been doing these days is related to the dream.
"Pointing, pointing to what? It's about playing chess!" Zhao Bing said with his eyes wide open.
"Ah... Your Highness has played chess with them?" Liu Fu looked at His Highness's innocent eyes and said, but there was some disappointment in his words.
"Yes, we played two games with Taizu and Laozu each!" Zhao Bing said, raising two fingers and shaking them.
"How is the victory or defeat?" Liu Fu asked casually.
"I defeated Taizu in two games, and I tied with the ancestor in two draws." Zhao Bing said excitedly, as if he was showing off.
"Really? Does Your Highness still remember the chess game?" Liu Fu forced a smile and said, perhaps in order not to disappoint His Highness, his words were perfunctory.
"Oh, of course I remember. One day, my ancestor couldn't wake up from his deep sleep, so Taizu asked me to play chess with him!" Zhao Bing became even more excited after hearing this, and was busy arranging the chess pieces to review the game.
Liu Fu watched the first game between His Highness and Taizu. He might be a beginner, but he didn't know how to humbly let the red man go first. At the beginning, the game was unremarkable, but at the end of the game, the situation was one rook versus three pawns. During the confrontation between the two sides,
Chariots, horses, soldiers and generals, soldiers, and elephants can all do their best to give full play to their respective offensive and defensive combat capabilities. It can be said that 'generals, soldiers, and elephants are soft but strong, and chariots, horses, and soldiers attack without forgetting to defend'.
His Highness moved forward and backward on his bicycle like a newborn calf, breaking through Taizu's tight defense.
"Your Highness is really like Zhao Yun's single-handed savior in Cao's 100,000-strong army. He is unstoppable!" The game was fierce and the rain outside the cabin was fierce. Liu Fu watched with excitement, as if he was playing chess with Taizu, until His Highness made a move.
After locking the victory, he wiped the sweat from his forehead and breathed a sigh of relief. ? ? ? ? w?w?w .

"Hehe, Taizu also praised me for being able to defeat the enemy and turn the tide against extreme danger. I can be called a hero." Zhao Bing said with some embarrassment.
"Your Highness, hurry up and start the second game." Liu Fu nodded and thought that Taizu's comment was just right, but he was already in the game and urged His Highness.
In the second game, the two players changed their stones and played again. After entering the game, the red and black sides each had seven stones left on the chessboard. The pattern was beautiful and rigorous. At first glance, the red side seemed to have a chance to win, and Taizu seemed eager to win.
The game was full of killing moves. However, His Highness changed his previous chess style and laid out the game calmly, step by step, with sophisticated ideas, laid many traps, and advanced the layout, leading his opponent into a desperate situation step by step. At this moment, there were only seven pieces left in the game.
"Phew, it's so dangerous!" After the game, His Highness looked as usual, but Liu Fu's face was flushed and his clothes were soaked with sweat, as if he was caught in the game. However, at this time, he already believed that His Highness learned to play chess in a dream, because
As far as he knew, there was no chess player in the palace who was as good as Taizu, so he couldn't teach such a brilliant disciple as His Highness.
"It was Taizu who asked me to do so in the first game, otherwise it would be a draw." Zhao Bing pouted, as if he was dissatisfied with Taizu's "letting go".
"Your Highness, even if Taizu is humble, it will be very difficult for His Highness to win." Liu Fu sighed and said. He understood that even if he went into battle, he would not be able to get out of such a wonderful chess game, and His Highness could learn it by himself just by watching the two people play.
, is no longer smart, but a genius. Thinking that it took me twenty years of hard study to get ahead, I can't help but feel a little discouraged.
"My ancestor is the master of the game. He has no flaws in offense and defense, and can kill at every step. I didn't sleep well and had no energy the next day." Zhao Bing didn't seem to notice Liu Fu's crying face.
, shook his little head and sighed.
"Oh, please continue your review, Your Highness!" His Highness's words made Liu Fu feel jealous, but he still smiled and said, thinking that although this child was telling the truth, he still had to be considerate of the old minister's fragile heart!
The next two games of chess may have been played very slowly because His Highness intended to let Liu Fu see them clearly. This also gave him time to think, but it also made them more thrilling. The game turned after only about ten rounds of prologue.
Entering into a fierce fight, it gradually entered the endgame of chariots and horses fighting chariots and soldiers. From the beginning, there was a chess situation where the red side had two chariots and one horse to kill in a row, but His Highness, who was holding the red side, gave up this great opportunity.
Liu Fu was a little confused, but after he deduced more than a dozen moves in his mind, he realized that it was a trap set by his opponent. The next chess position became even more complicated and confusing, and it was like seeing flowers in a fog, with profound and changing moves.
There are many tricks, and if you relax even a little bit, you will fall into a place of eternal destruction. And look at His Highness's chess game calmly, not making rash advances, not rushing to attack, being careful at every step, solving the puzzles set by the opponent one by one, turning the situation into danger, and finally the game was ended in a draw.
Without waiting for Liu Fu to escape from the strange and changeable game, the second game had already begun. At the beginning of this game, the ancestor who held the red charge attacked all the way, killing several of His Highness's 'generals', although they blocked from the left and right.
But he was passive everywhere and had little power to fight back.
At the end of the game, the red side still had two rooks. Although His Highness, who was holding Black, had the appearance of a scholar, he only had three pawns that could be used to attack. The strength of the chess pieces could be distinguished at a glance. This made Liu Fu have to doubt what His Highness had said before.
Ju Jie He is the ancestor who is suspected of letting go...
"Your Highness, the chess situation is so disparate, should we abandon the game?" Liu Fu pondered for a while and felt that it was difficult for black to make a difference. It could be changed by persisting and admitting defeat was the best choice. But through these three steps, he
Panqi realized that His Highness was no ordinary child, so he said uncertainly.
"I had this intention at the time and thought that I would definitely lose, but my ancestor's words made me change my mind." Zhao Bing said.
"What did the ancestor say?" Liu Fu asked anxiously. He knew that Chen Tuan was an expert outside the world and could often rejuvenate a country with just one word. He might be taking the opportunity to enlighten His Highness, but he didn't know it yet.
"Although you have wisdom, it is better to take advantage of the situation. Although you have a foundation, it is better to wait for the time!" Zhao Bing replied.
"Although you have wisdom, it is better to take advantage of the situation. Although you have the foundation, it is better to wait for the time!" Liu Fu frowned and repeated it in a low voice. He was familiar with this sentence because of his knowledge. It came from an article in "Mencius"
, was said by Gongsun Chou when discussing Taoism with his teacher Mencius, and the general meaning of this sentence is that even if you have wisdom, you have to take advantage of the situation; even if you have a hoe and plow, you have to wait for the farming season, but His Highness Chen Tuanhe said this sentence absolutely
It's not that simple, there must be a deep meaning in it.
Just when Liu Fu was pondering the meaning of his words, he suddenly realized that the situation in the game had changed again. If the red side moved quickly and the two rampaging cars were like dragons in the sea, the three pawns on the black side were slow and weak earthworms.
, but at this moment, the two rooks are restrained by Black's two pawns and are not allowed to move at will. At the same time, Black can skillfully use another pawn and flexibly change the position of the pawns, so that the red side's two rooks can do nothing, and the situation naturally changes drastically.
.
"Hey, this game is mysterious!" Liu Fu said in surprise when he saw the situation reversed. Now the earthworm, which seemed extremely small in front of the dragon, could compete with the two rooks.
With his unique moves and complex and changeable strategies and tactics, he gradually reversed the situation and finally achieved a draw.
Liu Fu stared at the chessboard for a long time without moving. He saw that this game was about "internal strength", about who could keep calm, who could take advantage of the situation and grasp the timing. He also gradually understood what Chen Tuan said. In a certain sense
It is said in the book that individual wisdom is not as good as the situation in making heroes, and good tools also need the right time to be effective. Therefore, many people blame others and think that they have not received their talents or are desperate. In fact, they have just failed to seize the opportunity. This requires
