In addition to chocolate, Tang Ping also gave Qihuli a lot of sour and sweet things. Anyway, he checked out the ones suitable for pregnant women and Qihuli asked him to take them back.
The weather isn't hot yet, but it's even colder in the Turks, so it's just right to send it there.
Among these missions, apart from the low-profile Turkic and East Vietnamese missions, the most high-profile mission is probably the Fuso Mission.
This country that was respected by the Tang Dynasty in Tang Ping's history was actually... a bit arrogant in this era.
It can be said that the main reason is that the Fuso envoy was led by their prince, and after the prince arrived in Chang'an, he got a diamond VIP in Xihe Tower, and then rented a long-term apartment on the fourth floor of Xihe Tower. Location.
Its function is to challenge chess players from Chang'an or the entire Tang Dynasty.
Go was very popular in the Tang Dynasty.
Li Yuan loved to play chess back then. In order to persuade Li Yuan to rebel against the Sui Dynasty, Li Shimin invited Pei Ji to talk about the war while playing chess.
Later, Li Shimin also liked playing chess very much, and even wrote a poem specifically for chess: "To win in the military period, there is no need for honors when the ground is broken. The half-death siege is interrupted, and the whole life is divided. The flying geese are not false wings, and the formation energy has no cloud." Playing this Sun Wu Yi will bring you a relaxing and peaceful atmosphere."
If something is good at the top, it must be good at the bottom, so Go has always been very popular in the Tang Dynasty.
The arrogant look of Prince Fusang naturally aroused the dissatisfaction of many people in Chang'an. First, several enthusiasts challenged him, but they all failed without exception.
Moreover, the bet failed in the middle of the game.
Then some well-known people in Chang'an also came to challenge, but no one could gain any advantage, and they were all defeated one after another.
"Is there anyone who wants to go upstairs to fight with my prince today?" A fusang man with a mustache asked proudly at the door of Xihe Tower: "If so, please go upstairs! Even if you can't win, my prince will also Invite your opponent to have a drink."
Seeing that no one agreed, the mustache was even more proud, and said eloquently: "My prince's chessboard is made of catalpa jade, with a shape similar to catalpa wood. After being carefully carved, it becomes a chessboard. It is bright and clean, and can almost be judged." people."
"The chess pieces are cold and warm jade. Thirty thousand miles east of Fusang, there is Jizhen Island. There is a Ningxia Terrace on the island, and there is a talking pool on the terrace. The jade chess pieces are produced in the pool."
"Not controlled by external forces, innate

That's it. Naturally, black and white are clear and the number of chess pieces matches. When you hold this chess piece in your hand, it is warm in winter and cold in summer, so it is called cold and warm jade. "
Finally someone couldn't help it anymore and shouted: "I'll try it!"
The mustache held back a glance at the visitor: "Then please invite me upstairs!"
As a result, within half an hour, the man came down in despair.
"Friend, why don't you stay and have a drink or two?" The mustache deliberately stopped the man, making him so embarrassed that he hid his face and walked away.
"Hey, my prince is going to return home after attending the wedding of the Marquis of Yinshan in the Tang Dynasty. Before that, is his desire to be defeated and unattainable?"
While they were talking, an old man came to the front surrounded by a group of people.
"I'm waiting for the imperial edict to be discussed in the lower palace. I'm here to meet with the prince of your kingdom!"
The onlookers nearby began to cheer.
This hand is talking about the imperial edict, which is an official position in the palace dedicated to playing chess with the emperor. It is only available to masters. Most of the people watching here know a little bit about chess.
Naturally, they also knew how powerful Shou Tan was waiting for the imperial edict, so they all cheered him up:
"Taking care of the imperial edict, we must defeat Prince Fuso!"
"That's right, let them see how good our Datang chess players are."
Tang Ping also happened to come downstairs to Xihe at this time. When the Fusang Prince reserved a seat on the fourth floor a few days ago, he didn't take it seriously. After all, there is nothing wrong with others spending money and making money themselves.
But in the past few days, I heard that the other party was becoming more and more arrogant, and even fought against dozens of people without even having a single bow, so I came over to see what kind of person dared to be so arrogant.
Gu Daizhao went upstairs, and Tang Ping followed.
Above the fourth floor, only the diamond membership card of Xihe Building can go up, but of course Tang Ping is not among them.
At this time, there were several wealthy businessmen from Chang'an on the fourth floor. They all looked at Prince Fuso who was sitting by the window drinking tea with some annoyance, but there was nothing they could do.
Seeing Tang Ping coming, they all bowed their hands and saluted, but said nothing because at this time Gu Daizhao was already sitting opposite Prince Fusang.
Everyone also knew that such a game required silence, so no one spoke.
After the two saluted, they began to play chess.
It can be seen that the two of them are rivals and fighting against each other.
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
When the kill fell to the thirty-third stone, the outcome of the two sides was still decided.
The hands that Gu Daizhao held were soaked with sweat.
(Historically, during the Xuanzong period, Prince Xiaori came to talk to his hand about the imperial edict. Gu Shiyan played against him once, and Xiaori lost.)
After a long time, a piece fell on the chessboard.
Prince Fuso's originally solemn expression suddenly relaxed, then he smiled and said, "I accept it!"
I have to say that his Tang Mandarin is still very standard.
As soon as Prince Fusang fell, Gu Wuji's expression changed.
He is known for his meticulousness and is usually known for his perfect chess moves, but he didn't expect that today he would be careless and Prince Fuso would take advantage of him.
Later, he regrouped and tried to regain the disadvantage, but the two were already evenly matched. Prince Fusang was unyielding in his victory and pressed forward step by step. When the time came to close the palace, he still lost one piece to the other.
Gu Wuyi looked at the chessboard wordlessly, and then sighed: "I lost!"
After saying that, he went downstairs without looking back.
Those wealthy businessmen were beating their chests and stamping their feet. Even the palace officials had failed in negotiations and edicts. Is there anyone in Chang'an City who can defeat Prince Fusang?
Prince Fuso put away the chess pieces and said quietly: "Hey, it seems that it is a pity that these cold and warm jade chess pieces can't find a worthy opponent after all."
He could say this because he knew that Gu Wuyi lost the game just now and could not save his face to challenge him again.
In fact, Gu Wuji made the right move just now, and the outcome is still uncertain.
But there are no ifs in this world.
While everyone was watching Prince Fuso pretending to be cool, Tang Ping slowly said, "How about I play with the prince for a round?"
"Shopkeeper Tang, you..."
"Shopkeeper Tang, can you play chess?"
The wealthy businessmen next to them asked one after another. Do you know that several Go celebrities in Chang'an have failed in the past few days, including Gu Wuyi who just lost.
Although Tang Ping has always had a literary name, no one has ever seen or heard that he can play chess.
Playing chess is not something that can only be done with passion!
