Chapter 171 Won
The eldest princess glared at him first, then poked Xie Wuya with her elbow, and said to Su Wan with a smile on her face: "Ignore your cousin, he is a chess fanatic. He has spent his whole life playing chess."
Xie Wuya pursed his lips and remained silent.
"It's okay. Mr. Xie wants to confirm whether I am the one who can solve the problem." Su Wan is very transparent. What can't he understand? She reminded: "Master Xie, please call me Mrs. Gu from now on."
She has nothing to do with the prince, so calling her cousin or cousin is inappropriate.
Xie Wuya said calmly: "Okay, Madam Gu." After a short pause, he asked without thinking: "Can we play chess now?"
The eldest princess couldn't help but hold her forehead. When she saw Su Wan again, she felt that Su Wan had changed. But something has changed, and there is an indescribable feeling, as if it is emitting a kind of light, which is particularly attractive.
"Now." Su Wan wanted to ask Xie Wuya to teach Gu Jingyun chess, calligraphy and painting, so he planned to exchange this request. She told Xiao Tao: "Go to the warehouse and find a pair of Go."
Xiaotao took the key and went to the warehouse.
Gu's mother brought tea.
Gu Huaizhi brought the small kang table and placed it in the center of the room, with a futon on each side.
Su Wan and Xie Wuya took their seats.
Xiao Tao ran over panting and put the chessboard on the Kang table.
"Please." Su Wan made a gesture of invitation.
Xie Wuya grabbed a handful of chess pieces in the chess basket and gave them to Su Wan to guess.
Su Wan said casually: "Single."
Xie Wuya opened his palms and there were six chess pieces in them.
Su Wan guessed wrong and took the white piece.
"I accept it." Xie Wuya took the black chess piece.
According to the rules, black moved first, so he picked up a chess piece and placed it on the chessboard.
Su Wan followed suit and played Bai Zi.
There was a smile in Xie Wuya's eyes, and he could conclude that Su Wan had certain skills.
Su Wan raised her eyebrows when she saw him starting with small goals 1 and 3. This was Xie Wuya's proud start.
Her expression didn't change, and she hesitated.
The smile on Xie Wuya's face gradually disappeared, and she stared intently at the chessboard, her second hand making a large diagonal move. Daxie is known as a thousand changes, with traps and conspiracies at every step. In the past month, he happened to find a volume of chess records in the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion, discovered this technique on it, and did some research on it.
Xie Wuya deftly broke Su Wan's game, faintly highlighting his advantage.
Su Wan was ready at this moment, he thought for a moment, and then the situation became more delicate. It seems that the chess game has calmed down after a fierce battle, but in fact, there are turbulent undercurrents and murderous intentions.
Xie Wuya frowned and held the chess piece with his fingertips for a long time.
Gu Huaizhi placed a stick of incense beside him.
This is setting a time limit.
Xie Wuya stopped, and Bai Zi, who had besieged Su Wan all the way, had strong momentum and was already in the lead.
The eldest princess had some research on Go. When she saw this, she felt that Xie Wuya might have won.
Gu Huaizhi looked calm and poured tea for the two of them.
The eldest princess whispered: "It's a pity that Wanwan lost this round."
Gu Huaizhi smiled and said: "Not necessarily." Before the eldest princess spoke, he said lightly: "Watch the chess without saying a word."
The eldest princess didn't believe it. Black's advantage was obvious.
Suddenly, her expression changed.
Su Wan collected seven black chess pieces in a row, and the black chess piece collapsed.
Xie Wuya's fighting spirit was aroused, and he felt like he was evenly matched, and his blood boiled all over his body. He himself knew that he had played the wrong game because his mother was discussing with Gu Huaizhi that when he was sure to win this game, it seemed that he had gained an advantage first, but it actually laid hidden dangers. Su Wan made three quick moves and immediately turned the situation around.
His troops made dangerous moves and attacked forcefully step by step.
Su Wan is not a stickler for rules. He seems to be chaotic, but every step contains profound meaning. Not afraid of Xie Wuya's strong attack, he was unstoppable and fought back one by one.
Xie Wuya tightened his fists, and the chess pieces hurt his palms. There was no color on his face. Seeing that there was no longer any dispute on the chessboard, he closed his eyes and surrendered.
He looked at the stick of incense that had just burned out and said, "Your chess skills are superb."
"No, Huaizhi confused your mind when he took out the incense burner. He didn't think carefully and made a wrong move. Otherwise, I may not be able to defeat you."
Xie Wuya shook his head: "Playing chess requires extremely strong endurance and concentration. My character is just a little bit worse than yours, so I'm already a bit behind."
Su Wan didn't argue anymore. She didn't care about winning or losing, so her character was not affected.
What's more, she grew up in the 21st century, and her grandfather and grandpa have studied Go deeply. The chess records at home are the essence of ancient and modern games. She also has some talent in this, so she can win over Xie Wuya.
Considering Xie Wuya's age and the background in which he grew up, his chess skills are really good.
"Another game?" Xie Wuya's eyes were bright and he stared at Su Wan for a moment: "This time there is no time limit."
Su Wan waved her hands repeatedly: "No, I have other things to do today, so I'm afraid I can't stay with you until the end."
Xie Wuya was very disappointed, and finally kept his etiquette and stopped entangled.
He asked: "Are you free tomorrow?"
Su Wan shook her head: "I haven't been free in the past few days."
"Will you be free in a few days?" Xie Wuya grasped the key point.
Su Wan: "..."
Brother, I don’t want to play chess, that’s an excuse.
Su Wan scratched his head in distress and changed the subject: "You promised back then that if anyone solves the problem, you will do one thing for you unconditionally. Does this count?"
"Count." Xie Wuya immediately asked: "If I agree, will you play another game?"
"Okay." Su Wan disliked playing chess the most. It took too long and required concentration and constant thinking. It was too taxing on the brain. "When I'm free, I'll send you a post."
"It's a deal."
The two high-fived each other.
Xie Wuya: "Have you thought about the terms?"
"You teach my brothers and sisters piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, Mr. Xie, will you agree?"
"Okay." Xie Wuya did not forget to seek benefit for himself: "Then can I play chess with you often?"
"..." Su Wan felt that it was right not to reveal her identity before.
She could almost predict that every time she met Xie Wuya in the future, she would be pestered by him to play chess.
Su Wan considered it carefully and said: "When they become proficient in music, chess, calligraphy and painting, I promise you a game of chess."
"Three rounds, no time limit."
Su Wan endured the pain and said, "Okay!"
Xie Wuya smiled, "I'm sorry for bothering you today, I'll come to the Gu Mansion to teach you tomorrow."
"No, no, I don't have to worry about you running around." Su Wan waved her hands in panic as if facing a formidable enemy: "I'll send them to the eldest princess's mansion!"
Xie Wuya nodded: "Farewell."
The eldest princess still seemed to be in a dream, and Xie Wuya actually lost to Su Wan.
And promised Su Wan to stay in the princess's mansion to teach Gu Jingyun and Gu Baozhu.
She held Su Wan's hand and said with gratitude in her tone: "Wanwan, come to the eldest princess's mansion often from now on. If you need help with anything, you can come to me."
Su Wan responded politely and watched the eldest princess and Xie Wuya leave. She let out a breath.
"Are you planning to ask Zhao Wei to teach Jing Yun?" Gu Huaizhi's voice sounded faintly behind him.
