While walking on the road, I heard someone say: "Quick, quick, start over at Qinfeng Tower." Speaking of Qinfeng Tower, although Zhao Gao has never been there, he often heard from Wei Liao that it was the largest one in Xianyang. A place of recreation. People who go there do all the elegant things of listening to music, playing chess, and tasting wine.
Zhao Zheng also knew that he had never been there, so he suggested: "Xiao Gao, let's go and join in the fun?" Seeing him looking eager to try, Zhao Gao couldn't bear to brush him off and nodded. As soon as the two entered the door, they heard cheers coming from inside: "Okay!" Someone on the side sighed: "These four people have won dozens of battles in a row. You see, now all the guests in Qinfeng Tower dare not fight again." Challenge lightly."
Someone on the side also just came here not long ago and asked, "Isn't it just a pair of wild geese? How can it be worth so many people fighting for?" The person who just sighed shook his head repeatedly: "It's vulgar! You must know that autumn geese are difficult to hunt, although it is true. There is no expensive prize, but aren’t the guests coming to Qin Feng Lou Tu just for elegance?”
"Is there anyone else who accepts the challenge? It would be disrespectful to accept the challenge without the four of my senior brothers." Those words were extremely arrogant, but there were quite a few losers, and all of them were too embarrassed to speak. Just when the people from Qin Feng Tower were about to offer up the pair of Qiu Yan's hands, a confident voice came from behind the crowd: "Slow down, I'll do it."
Zhao Gao didn't know when Zhao Zheng became interested in these things, but seeing that everyone had made way for the two of them, he had no choice but to follow Zhao Zheng forward. Zhao Zheng didn't talk nonsense, he cherished his words like gold, and just asked: "Who are you coming?" The four people saw that the two of him looked ordinary, and their clothes were simple and tight, but they still dared to be so arrogant, and they felt like they were underestimating the enemy. , and pushed the youngest junior brother forward.
Zhao Zheng glanced at Zhao Gao, who was waiting in the audience. Although the other party only nodded slightly in response, it was enough to warm his heart. The position is decided, white moves first, Zhao Zheng, who controls black, makes decisive moves with his sharp edge exposed. The moves are full of murderous intent, suppressing the opponent until he can't breathe. Compared with the previous strength of the four people, Zhao Zheng is now more domineering and fierce. The applause was endless, especially those who had been defeated by the four men, and felt relieved in their hearts.
As the last piece fell, Zhao Zheng said expressionlessly: "We won" and got off the platform. The other three knew they were outmatched, but were unwilling to admit defeat. They stood up and said, "Wait a minute." Zhao Zheng walked up to Zhao Gao. Hearing this, he turned his head and sneered, "What do you want?" Forced by his power, The other party was worried, his face turned pale, and after a while he pointed to Zhao Gao beside him: "I want to fight him."
When Zhao Zheng heard that he was going to challenge Zhao Gao, he glanced at him displeasedly, and was even more frightened that he could not speak properly: "You... you came together, and the four of us senior brothers also came together, so of course you can ...Okay..." The people below were already excited. Zhao Gao, who had been smiling and silent before, suddenly looked at Zhao Zheng. To prevent others from being confused, he changed his title and asked, "Do you really want that wild goose?"
Zhao Zheng nodded naturally and thought: Of course I want it...
"Okay." After saying this, Zhao Gao did not hesitate, turned around and walked up to the high platform slowly, then slowly bowed his hands to the man and said, "Let's get started."
They also cherish words like gold, but in the eyes of those who are joining in the fun below, the person on stage now is different from the previous person. Youdao is a commoner in white robes. He is dressed in inconspicuous white clothes, his sallow complexion, and his peaceful aura make him look completely gentle and harmless. Of course, the fruit must be picked softly. Because of this, the man just now chose Zhao Gao, who has no edge.
The two bowed to each other and sat down on their knees after careful etiquette. Zhao Gao asked if he wanted to guess first, but the opponent flatly refused: "No, you go first." He was noncommittal and leisurely took the white chess and went ahead.
The other party saw that he was very soft every time he went down. He was not at the same level as his companion just now, and he felt that he was underestimating the enemy. A chess game that was nothing special like this naturally did not arouse the enthusiasm of the surrounding onlookers, so people talked about other things while watching chess, so the whole Qin Feng Tower was noisy when Zhao Gao was playing chess.
No matter what happened to his surroundings, he didn't care at all. He had a leisurely and contented look on his face. He was playing with the chess pieces with his left hand, and there was almost no pause in the moves with his right hand. As soon as the black stone falls, the white stone immediately attaches, and each stone seems to be done randomly. Many people shook their heads and said that he would definitely lose.
Faced with such a situation, Zhao Zheng was not anxious for him. He naturally understood his temperament after having been with him for so long. Although he is usually gentle, humble and courteous to others, and always calm and leisurely when encountering problems, for such a person, if you have a little discernment, you will never think that he is weak and can be bullied, because for such a person, his calmness is not born in vain.
However, the final result... was actually a draw, and White's draw was very reluctant, and he would lose if he was not careful. How could the other party be convinced? I thought: If I hadn't been careless, how could I have let such a person whose chess skills were not as good as mine take advantage of the loophole and end the game? Feeling that it was a bit embarrassing to end up in a draw with such an ordinary person, he angrily rolled up his sleeves and stood up. The people below also sighed for the black chess, but Zhao Zheng just sneered in his eyes.
"I'll do it." When the senior brother in purple behind the man saw this, he just wanted to save this regret for his junior brother, so he stood up and challenged Zhao Gao. Because Zhao Zheng wanted Na Qiuyan, Zhao Gao had no special expression about it and naturally nodded in agreement. "Guess first?" Zhao Gao asked again. The man in purple thought for a while and agreed, but in the end Zhao Gao Zhibai went first.
The second man's chess skills were much better than the first, but Zhao Gao still maintained his usual smile. It was still a draw in the end, but this time the two sides were really evenly matched. The man in purple couldn't figure out the joints between them, and he couldn't help but feel depressed. He immediately looked at his senior brother and asked: "Senior brother, look..."
His senior brother was wearing a dark green robe and was obviously much more stable than the other three. He frowned and looked serious. After a while, he bowed to Zhao Gao and politely said: "Please enlighten me." Zhao Gao returned the salute and made another gesture and said gently: "Please first." The other party was shocked when he saw this. Unconsciously, she looked at him and stared at his deep pool-like eyes for a long time. Finally, she nodded, and with a solemn expression, she twisted the white chess piece to move first.
This time everyone was vaguely aware of something strange and did not dare to look down on Zhao Gao anymore. Those who had been watching the chess game carelessly before stopped their thoughts and looked at the chessboard with bated breath, not wanting to miss any changes on the chessboard. However, perhaps many people outside the chess game have not seen the clues yet, but the man in dark green robes has the feeling that he is being led somewhere by Zhao Gao all the time, and his attacks are completely unintentional.
At this time, there were a lot of sweat on his forehead due to nervousness, but he had no time to care about it and only focused all his attention on the chess game. In contrast, Zhao Gao was so light and so light that there was no trace of it like falling catkins on his clothes. The entire Qin Feng Tower fell into a strange silence. A faint cool breeze poured in from the gate, causing many people to tremble.
Except for the "crackling" sound, everyone seemed to hear nothing. Only Zhao Zheng, looking at Zhao Gao who was shining brightly at this moment, was actually more proud than himself for winning chess. The clothes on the man's body were soaked with sweat, his face turned earth-colored, and his heart was filled with confusion. He thought to himself: How could this man be so soft? He is clearly soft yet tough! Unfortunately, it was too late to realize this.
In fact, compared to his companions, the domineering and sharp moves just now would at least make people lose a lot, but the man in front of him with such a confusing approach is 100% debilitating. Finally... the result was a draw. The chess game was over, and the man in dark green robes breathed a sigh of relief.
If two games in one game were a draw, then three games in a row were like this, and each game was better than the last, which is shocking. Three consecutive draws in three games was something that everyone present had never heard of or seen before. Many people were so surprised that they forgot to even cheer.
The man in purple who had just lost the chess game felt that their senior brother had been humiliated by Zhao Gao and wanted to question him. However, after seeing Zhao Gao's clear eyes and noticing the intimidating look Zhao Zheng was looking at him, he opened his mouth and spoke again. Swallowed it back.
Zhao Gao raised his finger and pointed at Zhao Zhengdao: "Now we have three draws and he has won another round. The outcome is determined. Can we take Qiu Yan away?"
No one could have imagined that the man in front of them, who looked plain and peaceful, only cared about a pair of insignificant Qiu Yan, and they had mixed feelings in their hearts. "If no one dares to challenge him again, of course it's okay." The barefooted maid at the side explained to him carefully.
Until Zhao Gao leisurely stepped off the high platform, no one came to challenge him. Zhao Zheng happily took Qiu Yan from the hand of the beautiful maid. Regardless of everyone's sighs and sighs, he took Zhao Gao and left without looking back. On the road, Zhao Zheng's funny appearance of holding Qiu Yan attracted many passers-by's glances. Fortunately, Zhao Gao just let him hold him and was not affected by those strange glances at all.
"Is the king satisfied now?" Zhao Gao asked helplessly when he finally reached a deserted alley. Zhao Zheng did not dare to express the twists and turns in his heart, so he nodded and said: "This goose will be given to me as a little Gao. I will take it back to the palace and raise it in Zhuhongtai later."
Zhao Gao was suspicious, there was nothing in the majestic Qin Palace, but a pair of geese? But then I thought about it and suddenly remembered a sentence in "Hun Yi": The one who accepts the choice is called the gift of choice. Therefore, when the gift is issued, the use of geese [1] is also used. Could it be that he, a student, has fallen in love with someone and wants to use this pair of geese to express his feelings?
Zhao Gao couldn't ask too many questions about Zhao Zheng's personal affairs, so he didn't mention it again at the moment. The monarch and his ministers stood together, but they were thinking about their own things and said nothing. After wandering around for a long time, Zhao Gao finally drove Zhao Zheng back to the palace in the name of the teacher.
