Chapter 151
When everyone learned that the song just now was played by Dugu Yan, they all showed admiration or admiration, and enthusiastically invited Dugu Yan and Bai Lianhua to get on the boat and drink and talk.
The purpose of coming out today is to relax with Liu Qiao. One more Bai Lianhua is enough. How could Dugu Yan disturb their interest? Therefore, he refused coldly without thinking.
Li Jin in the crowd had never left the cold and beautiful young man in green since he came out of the boat. He was happy with everyone's suggestions. Seeing Dugu Yan's rejection without hesitation, he couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.
Driven by impulse, Li Jin walked out of the crowd. His moon-white brocade dress made him look slender, his temperament was warm, and he smiled on his lips. He was really a stranger, and his son was unparalleled, making people feel fond of him.
"Ziqian, I haven't played chess for a long time. Let's talk about it?"
Dugu Yan can ignore others, but now she is facing Li Jin, but she can't refuse as straightforward as before.
Li Jin, this gentle and polite man once helped her, but she did not ask for anything in return. Of course, she knew what the other party was thinking about her, but she could not respond. She felt a little guilty.
Therefore, Dugu Yan hesitated and froze in place. Suddenly she felt something pulling her sleeve. When she turned her head, she met Liu Qiao's encouraging smile, "Ziqian, go, I just look forward to your charm!"
"My wife, I promised to accompany you today..."
"It's okay, I'm just bored." Liu Qiao didn't lie. She had eaten enough just now, and her stomach was already full, and she couldn't eat it. She couldn't help but feel bored. She could just see how the heroine was amazed. The scene must be very interesting.
As the picture turned, there was a chessboard in the middle of the elegant ship. The young man in green sat opposite the man in moon white and brocade, and the literati and students gathered around to watch the battle.
Liu Qiao knew a little about chess, but she was confused. The heroine and the others played Go, but she didn't need to understand it. Anyway, she was not interested in these things, just wanted to join in the fun.
As time passed by minute by minute, there were still some small conversations at the beginning. Almost everyone behind held their breath and did not dare to breathe. They stared at the battle on the chessboard intently. Even people like Liu Qiao who don’t understand Go could feel the tension in the chessboard.
Dugu Yan pressed step by step, with a strong momentum. Li Jin should not be underestimated. He seemed to have been defending all the time, but in fact, he had buried countless pits without hesitation, just waiting for people to jump down.
After a few round trips, the situation changed many times. Before the parties could feel anything, the people watching the game became frightened.
The game lasted for nearly half an hour and finally decided the outcome. Although Li Jin was not weak, Dugu Yan was still better.
After a long time, everyone came back to their senses from the wonderful chess game just now and became even more impressed by Dugu Yan.
"Brother Yue, what's the next game?" Looking at Dugu Yan, who was almost full of stars, Bai Lianhua suddenly said.
Clearly capturing the provocation in the other party's eyes, Dugu Yan smiled coldly in her heart, and the smile on her lips also expanded, "Okay, I'm happy to accompany you."
Everyone onlookers looked excited. They had heard of the reputation of "Twin Jades in the Capital" and believed that the next chess game would not disappoint them.
Sure enough, this game took three hours at once, and the excitement was self-evident, more complex and changeable than the previous game of chess. Everyone seemed to have been in the chess game, forgot time and where they were, but the two protagonists were calm from beginning to end and straight.
Liu Qiao, who had no interest in playing chess, sneaked out of the crowd shortly after the chess game started, and the wind was blowing somewhere.
Although I guessed that it would not be so easy to decide the winner, Liu Qiao did not expect that this chess would be played for so long. It is almost dark now and it hasn't been finished yet.
Liu Qiaobai yawned boredly. If the ship hadn't been a long distance from the shore, she would have thought of a way to go back!
Looking up at the sky, there were a few stars dotted on it, the moon also had a faint shadow, and the lights on the shore had begun to light up. Not to mention, they were really poetic and picturesque. Unfortunately, Liu Qiao had no literary and artistic cells, and she thought about it either eating or novels.
Now she has no other idea, just hope that the heroine will end up quickly and go back.
I don’t know if Liu Qiao’s prayer worked, but after playing half a day, the chess finally came to a result - a draw.
This game can be described as thrilling. Every move the two of them took touched their hearts. After one game, they were fine, but everyone was sweating and breathing rapidly.
After making a hypocritical polite controversy with Bai Lianhua, Dugu Yan subconsciously searched for Liu Qiao's figure. She didn't want to search for it for a while, but she didn't even see a corner of Liu Qiao's clothes.
I guessed that she was looking for Liu Qiao. Someone took the initiative to tell what she knew. Dugu Yan followed the direction the man said, and sure enough, she saw Liu Qiao soon.
The woman turned her back to her, and the lake was shimmering, reflecting the stars in the sky. There were endless nights and lights on both sides. Suddenly the wind blew up the woman's hair and clothes. For some reason, Dugu Yan felt that the woman's back was so lonely and desolate.
"My wife, it turns out you are here."
When the woman heard Dugu Yan's voice, she turned around and found that she was a familiar person. She couldn't help but smile, and her not-so-pretty face became vivid in an instant.
Dugu Yan's heart moved and raised her foot and walked over, "Madam, are you bored?"
"Somewhat, I can't play chess and can't understand it, so I came here to have a good time."
"Do you want me to teach you?"
"I'd better not want it anymore. I'm very stupid. It may take a lot of time to learn this. Moreover, you have a lot of things to do in your yamen. I don't want to delay your work. The most important thing is that I actually have no interest in playing chess."
"Okay." Dugu Yan had to give up after Liu Qiao said this.
Today, she must have been with Liu Qiao, but she played chess with others for half a day. Although Liu Qiao didn't say anything, she couldn't help but take it seriously. So Dugu Yan offered to go ashore to accompany Liu Qiao to the snack street.
When they heard Dugu Yan leaving, everyone tried to keep him. They had never seen the literary talent of "Shuangyu in the Capital" and wanted to discuss it again, so how could they let her go? However, Dugu Yan's intention to leave was decided, and it was useless to let everyone persuade him, even if Li Jin and Bai Lianhua came up to persuade him.
At this time, someone came over and said a few words in Li Jin's ear. After hearing this, Li Jin stretched out his frown slightly, and a warm and pleasant smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, "Ziqian, the banquet has been set up, which makes the lady probably hungry, so it's better to use the meal first and then leave."
When everyone heard this, they immediately agreed with each other. At this time, Bai Lianhua, who had always stood quietly, suddenly spoke, "The King of Xian said this, how can we let him down? My cousin's brother-in-law, let's stay and leave after dinner!"
When everyone heard Bai Lianhua calling Dugu Yan "My cousin" and everyone remembered that the two were in-laws. In this way, it was not difficult to explain that the two appeared together.
Looking at the pretty woman protected by the two, everyone couldn't help but feel envious and even jealous. The top scholar and the second-hand man were the most handsome boys in the capital. This woman had been practicing for several lifetimes before she could be related to the two.
Feeling the envious or jealous gazes around her, Liu Qiao accepted them calmly, looked up and faced Dugu Yan's secretly inquiring gaze. She nodded gently.
There must be a lot of delicious food at the banquet.
She lived up to Liu Qiao's expectations. The meal at this banquet was very rich, but it was outside, and in front of these literati students who wrote specialists, in order not to discredit the heroine's image, she should take it easy.
I didn't stop eating. Before I could eat for a long time, someone proposed to write a poem with the wine in the glass.
Except for Liu Qiao, there was no one present without any ink. Of course, they all liked this proposal. Who would let go of the opportunity to perform? Maybe they would become famous all over the world by accident. Therefore, everyone was secretly ready to express it.
The final result is of course obvious, and Liu Qiao doesn't have to think about it. The heroine must be the one who makes a big splash tonight, followed by the male supporting role Bai Lianhua and Li Jin.
After tonight, the heroine's name became more and more popular.
