Ye Chanyi was not originally very interested in playing chess, but after Yue Wanwan fell a few pieces, she couldn't help but perked up, and her competitive spirit was suddenly aroused.
It is a kind of stress reaction when a strong opponent meets a strong opponent and wants to show off.
The two played chess at an extremely fast speed, with almost no need to think, and they made moves directly, showing the invisible light and shadow of the sword.
Every time each other makes a move, there is always appreciation in the other's eyes.
The two played three games. In the first game, Ye Chanyi narrowly won with half a piece, in the second game, Yue Wanwan won half a piece, and in the third game, it was a draw. As a result, the two's chess skills were evenly matched.
Yue Wanwan's chess skills exceeded Ye Chanyi's expectations.
Masters are always lonely. Ye Chanyi has not met a chess master like Yue Wanwan for a long time. This time, he felt a hearty and joyful feeling.
It is said that the way of chess is like the way of humanity, and the state of chess is also like the state of human beings. Ye Chanyi couldn't help but feel sympathetic towards Yue Wanwan.
When he left Yuexian Tower and returned to the Hou Mansion, the originally burned door had been replaced with a new one. When the servants of the concierge saw Ye Chanyi coming back from outside, their expressions changed with fright, and everyone was in danger.
Ye Chanyi did not step forward to make things difficult, but went straight inside.
It wasn't until Ye Chanyi walked far away that the servant let out a big breath, wiped his forehead with his sleeve, and couldn't help but think secretly.
Today's eldest lady looks so terrible. The official family always attaches great importance to the lintel of their house, but the eldest lady will burn it if he says it. If he hadn't run fast, he would have been buried in the sea of fire today. It seems that he will have to lose his eyesight in the future. Don't worry, if you offend anyone in the house, you won't dare to be disrespectful to the eldest lady in the slightest.
In the room, after Ye Chanyi took a shower, she sat in front of the mirror and applied the prepared ointment to the red spots under her eyes.
Because the original owner has been poisoned for too long, the toxin has been latent in the body and must be taken internally and externally to completely eradicate it.
Ye Chanyi let Zi Yuan and Song Qing go down, leaving only Liu Zhu in the room. At this time, Liuzhu had not yet recovered from all the excitement during the day, and kept talking with his little mouth.
"Miss, you are so awesome. I didn't expect that today I single-handedly picked four people in Wuji Academy and won four titles at once. You are also skilled in martial arts and have acquired good medical skills. In these years, Miss has never been a slave. I have shown my true nature in the past, and even the slaves have been concealed by you. However, as a slave, I understand that the young lady is like this. After all, our prince's mansion is like a dragon's pond and a tiger's den. The young lady should really hide her edge when she is not completely sure of turning over."
What Ye Chanyi did today at Wuji Academy has already become a topic of conversation for people in Kyoto after dinner. On the way back to the house from Yuexian Tower, the four masters and servants listened to the comments from the melon-eating people.
Only then did Liuzhu express his feelings. Ye Chanyi didn't say anything. After all, Liuzhu and the original owner had been dependent on each other for many years. If Liuzhu knew the truth, it would be the cruelest blow. Such a misunderstanding is a good outcome.
Liuzhu went to the candlestick to cut the wick and said with a smile: "Miss, I want to tell you something interesting. The second young lady just returned home and was carried back on a stretcher. I heard that Aunt Yun's eyes were swollen from crying. I ran to the Marquis to complain, hoping that the Marquis would punish the young lady. As a result, the crooked mouth of the Marquis was finally cured, but was stimulated by Aunt Yun and returned to the old state. The servants went to the doctor again. Look. The Marquis is going to suffer from the pain of acupuncture again."
After Ye Chan finished applying the medicine, he looked in the mirror. His eyes glowed with a deep cold light, and the corners of his lips curled into a cold smile.
Her revenge has just begun.
"Liuzhu, it's getting late, you go and have a rest. You don't have to accompany me." Ye Chanyi turned around and ordered Liuzhu.
Liuzhu yawned and replied: "Well, miss, you should also rest early."
"Liuzhu, no matter what happens tonight, just stay in the room and don't come out. Remember what I said."
When Ye Chanyi spoke, a look of solemnity flashed across his eyes.
On the way back to her home after leaving Yuexian Tower, with her keen insight as a killer, she discovered that she was being targeted by two groups of people.
If what she expected was true, one wave was from the Duke Zhen's Mansion, and the other wave was from General Wuwei's Mansion.
Duke Su Quan and General Xue Tianxiong were both known to be doting on girls. Today she had a deep grudge with Sun Ning'er and Xue Wanying in the academy. She would only think it was abnormal if Su Quan and Xue Tianxiong swallowed their anger.
Presumably, the two of them must be worried about her current status as the dean, so they planned to secretly kill her.
Ye Chanyi thought of this and turned to look outside the dark window. The branches were rustling in the wind. The next moment, a playful smile appeared on the corner of his lips.
It's been a dark and windy killing night for a long month, but she, the king of killers, has the final say on who dies and who lives.
"Miss, what do you mean by this? Is there going to be danger tonight?" Liuzhu suddenly worried when he saw the cold expression on her young lady's face.
Ye Chanyi curled his lips and said with relief: "They are just clowns, I can handle them. Besides, there are Ziyuan, Songqing and others, I will be fine, don't worry."
Liuzhu, who was still very worried at first, immediately felt relieved when he saw the confidence and aura exuded by her young lady's movements.
"My slave will protect myself and will never cause trouble to the young lady. The young lady must also protect herself and not be distracted by my slave."
Liuzhu nodded heavily and replied, unable to help but thinking: The phoenix will eventually soar into the sky. If the young lady is so dazzling, she will definitely attract some young people. Since I can't help the young lady, I can't be a drag on the young lady.
Seeing Liuzhu being so obedient, Ye Chanyi nodded appreciatively, and then she handed a packet of poisonous powder to Liuzhu for self-protection.
After Liuzhu retreated, she quickly went to bed to recharge her batteries. There is still a tough battle waiting for her tonight.
Just after midnight, there was a rustling sound from the corner of Xiaoluo's residence.
The sound was as subtle as leaves falling to the ground. Such an insignificant sound made Ye Chanyi on the bed suddenly open his eyes.
She stood up quickly and ran to the door as silently as a civet cat. Then the tips of her ears twitched slightly and she counted silently: "One, two, three...seven, eight."
Ye Chanyi couldn't help but laugh.
There were eight people outside. They walked lightly, acted in unison, and were full of killing intent. They were obviously well-trained killers.
At the same time, the eight men in black outside the room flew down into the courtyard and quietly approached the room where Ye Chanyi was.
However, before the eight people could get close to the door, at this moment, the door was opened from the inside with a clang, and a young girl named Pingting walked out of it.
Such a change caused all the people in black to freeze on the spot, and for a moment they didn't know what was going on.
