From the bamboo forest just now, every time Tang Que spoke, he would have a brocade sentence. Lin Xue was thinking about all these arrangements, and then looking at Tang Que's age, he had thought about him about 70% to 80%. At this time, he wanted to look at Tang Que's chess skills. As a scholar, piano, chess, calligraphy and painting are essential skills. On the contrary, from these skills, you can also see the temperament and spirit of a scholar. Isn't there a saying that watching chess is like observing people!

Just as Lin Xue thought of this, he signaled that Tang Que and County Magistrate Zhang would play chess.

In ancient times, scholars talked about the etiquette of superiority and inferiority. Lin Xuezheng, how could Tang Que be willing to take the lead? "If Xuezheng invites first, students will be a chess watcher for the time being." Tang Que reached out to invite the two of them into the pavilion, and continued to chuckled: "It is better to be good at watching the game than good at watching. If a person wins, I am happy if he loses. If he loses, I don't have to worry about it. Therefore, he always lives in the scenic spot! According to the students' opinion, there is a great interest in watching chess. Lin Xuezheng is the common teacher of scholars in this county, so how could he ask the students to be satisfied?"

"This is a good thing about watching chess. I can tell you that you know the real fun of chess." County Magistrate Zhang, who was addicted to chess, said without waiting for Lin Xuezheng to recommend it again, and he said: "Lin Xuezheng doesn't have to give in anymore. You and I will play a game early, and the winner will weigh his chess power again."

Zhang and Lin played chess, Tang Que served wine, and Master Yan tasted wine and watched chess. For a moment, the entire mountain pavilion was silent, and only the sound of the falling pieces responded to the sound of the Lili wind, which sounded extremely quiet.

Tang Que served wine in his hands, but his eyes were always paying attention to the chessboard. After watching the two sides' thirty or forty moves, his heart became more and more stable. In terms of chess power, Lin and both were higher than him. Fortunately, they were not too high. Although the chess paths of the two were different, they were generally from the famous chess record "Wu Tu" of the Three Kingdoms. And the one he had figured out the most in the past month was this chess record. When he really wanted to play against them, Tang Que was confident that he could grasp the general trend, which would have a fight. In addition, as long as he had learned in his later generations, as long as he performed well, he would take a different approach and attack him in a bad situation, it would be possible to win.

Both Zhang and Lin were quick-selling, and it didn't take much time to play chess. In the end, County Magistrate Zhang won with a small advantage of five goals.

After winning, County Magistrate Zhang was very happy. He raised his head and drank the warm wine in the cup, waved to Tang Que, "Tang Cheng, come!"

When you watch chess, Tang Que can see through the game just now that County Magistrate Zhang is a real chess player, so after sitting down, he has no distracting thoughts of flattery and has no reservations about making moves.

Tang Que already knew the chess and chess of Zhang County Magistrate, but what he learned in his later generations was not something that Zhang County Magistrate could know. As both sides made more moves, the solemn expression on Zhang County Magistrate's face became stronger. In the end, Tang Que won the right hand in a strange way and won nearly ten points in this game.

Liu Li didn't understand Go, but just followed the action with a cup of wine and watched the fun. There was nothing in front of him. When he heard that Tang Que had defeated County Magistrate Zhang, his face changed suddenly. He took advantage of the stone table to knock Tang Que.

On the contrary, after the dust settled, County Magistrate Zhang was not only not unhappy, but instead rubbed his hands repeatedly, calling strange chess while urging Tang Que to come again.

The chessboard was still Tang Que's first move, but County Magistrate Zhang changed his habit of making moves like the wind this time and thought repeatedly. Once he became cautious, Tang Que's many strange moves were difficult to achieve the expected effect. Although he tried his best, he eventually lost due to the gap in chess skills. However, not many defeats were only seven eyes.

If the two games of chess are tied up, Tang Que and Zhang County Magistrate will be equally divided and end with a draw.

Playing Go is time-consuming, especially the last game is slow. After the winner is decided, it is already twilight outside the pavilion, and it is time to go down the mountain.

County Magistrate Zhang stepped up and his face was filled with the pleasure of having a good time after getting enough chess. "Lin Xuezheng, Tang Cheng's chess path is very strange. At first glance, he looked wild and thought deeply. After thinking about it, he felt that it made sense. If he was not careful, he would fall into his trap. Now he thinks that there is a bit of antelope hanging on the horns. The chess power is just too rare. The most rare thing is that his chess path is not craftsmanship. Well, this young man is quite capable, and it is a pity to live here for a long time at his age."

Tang Queyue had to wait for this sentence. Listening to the words of County Magistrate Zhang, his hands that were packing up the chess pieces slowed down.

Lin Xuezheng knew the elegance when he heard the sings. He glanced at Tang Que, who was nervous and nervous, and said with a smile, "Since the county master loves talents, why don't I have the intention to cherish talent? At the beginning of the year, more than ten students in the county master came to the provincial master, and the free place was the one to add him." At this point, Lin Xuezheng also joked: "Since this way, the county master will no longer have to talk about the chess game with him every day."

"Those who know me are Lin Xuezheng!" Before the county magistrate Zhang finished speaking, he heard a crisp "ding" sound coming from beside him. When he turned his head to look, he saw Tang Que busy picking up the chess piece that fell from his hand. His calm and composed face turned red just now.

Zhang and Lin naturally knew the reason why Tang Que made a mistake when he was excited, but neither of them said it out loud. They looked at each other and smiled and walked down the mountain.

Back at the foot of the mountain, Liu Lizheng's house was ready, and County Magistrate Zhang had a good time to climb the mountain. Compared with the story of the silence at noon, his interest in the evening increased significantly. He only let the banquet be held for more than an hour before the end.

The mountain was lonely. After the banquet, the drunken Magistrate Zhang, who was already indifferent, kept Tang Que and Master Yan. In addition, the county school Lin Xuezheng, the four of them were tasting wine and watching the moon in the backyard of the manor, chatting and passing the time.

Master Yan and Lin Xuezheng talked more about the content of "The Justice of the Five Classics", exchanged recent experiences in reading scriptures, and evaluated the latest achievements of the academic community in the original scriptures and exploring the meaning of the classics. Tang Que was the main force to accompany the magistrate Zhang, so the topic was naturally inseparable from chess.

"In the Wei, Jin and Six Dynasties, scholars advocated metaphysics and talks, while Go was mysterious and unpredictable, which was quite in line with the elegant interests of scholars, so it was called "hand talk". In the "Qiaoyi" chapter of "The New Words of the World" discussed the famous monk Zhidun of the Jin Dynasty, he said that he "used Go as a hand talk". This is the earliest source of the "hand talk" that students saw. Of course, because playing chess can make people feel extraordinary, it is also called "Sitting and Hidden", which means that no matter where you are, as long as you sit in front of the chessboard, you can get rid of worldly concerns, which is no different from a hermit. It is also "Qiaoyi" "Qiaoyi"
