Chapter 594 594. A trifle (23)

   "Has the paper ever left your hand?"

   "When I fell, the paper flew out of my hand, and the other party picked it up for us."

  As soon as Chu Qingzhi heard this, she knew the reason, "Is the second line written by the other party 'Yinyuejing, Yinyueying, Yinyueying in Yinyuejing, Yuejing Wannian, Yueying Wannian?'"

   "Yes, Fifth Sister, what you said is correct," Chu Xuyao ​​realized, "Wait, Fifth Sister, you didn't go to the scene, how did you know the other party's second line? Could it be...you wrote it?"

   "I wrote it." Chu Qingzhi said, "Your paper was dropped when the other party picked it up for you."

   "Despicable and shameless!" Chu Xuyao ​​stomped his feet angrily.

   "It's a trivial matter, don't be angry." Chu Qingzhi patted Chu Xuyao's small shoulder lightly, "In the afternoon, I'll let them tell in person how they stole other people's fruits, how about it?"

"Okay." Chu Xuyao ​​said excitedly, "In the afternoon, the emperor will personally come to see who wins the competition's leader and reward the lottery. At this time, I will expose my evil deeds. Hmph, my reputation will be ruined." gone."

   "Fifth Sister, I'll go and tell my senior brother about this, so I can't let them misunderstand you."

   "Go, be careful."

"Um."

   After some inquiries, Chu Xuyao ​​learned that Zhuang Yuyan and the others had returned to the inn, so he hurried over.

  Zhuang Yuyan and the others couldn't help but burn with anger after hearing Chu Xuyao's words.

   "It's too much! These Guozijian students are really good at conspiring and tricking, and they haven't wronged them at all."

   "There is no integrity, and if you become an official in the imperial examination in the future, it will also be a disaster for the people."

   "We must expose their ugliness in the afternoon, **** it!"

  Everyone scolded for a long time in the room, and the anger in their hearts slowly subsided.

  …

  Guozijian, Go competition area.

   "Admit defeat!" Chu Xuyuan miraculously found that he was about to win.

  Lin Jixian stared at the chessboard in disbelief, "How is it possible? How is it possible?"

  Chu Xuyuan played with a chess piece, provoking Lin Jixian on purpose, "How is it impossible? I've already told you that I have the help of a divine book. Do you know how powerful it is now?"

  Lin Jixian's face became more and more ugly. He could have many moves on the chessboard, but no matter which move he took, Chu Xuyuan would win the next step, "Impossible, impossible!"

  Chu Xuyuan tapped the table lightly with a chess piece, "Hurry up, we'll be waiting for the two of us."

  Lin Jixian looked up and found that there were really only the two of them in the entire competition area. As a last resort, he finally put down the chess pieces.

  Chu Xuyuan then cheered a little, "I won!"

  Master walked over to look at the chessboard, and said, "Xu Yuan wins."

  Chu Xuyuan got up and saluted Master, "Thank you, Master."

  Lin Jixian's eyes turned red and he rushed out. He never expected that he would lose. Chu Xuyuan is obviously a rookie, how could he lose? !

  By relying on his unexpected chess skills, Chu Xuyuan successfully entered the highly difficult round of four-in-two competition.

  It's still early, the game continues.

   Four people drew lots, and Chu Xuyuan was drawn to compete with Zeng Zhengming.

Who is Zeng Zhengming? He is the most skilled chess player in the Guozijian. He has played invincible players in the Guozijian. Three months ago, he challenged a national player. His skills were not as good as others. In the end, he was defeated by fifty-six moves. He has been retreating at home since then. , just left the customs yesterday.

  When Chu Xuyuan faced Zeng Zhengming, he was not at the same level as facing Lin Jixian, but Zeng Zhengming was not as good as Tang Jinghong. In the end, Chu Xuyuan lost with seventy-eight moves.

   Zeng Zhengming was very surprised. He looked at the young boy in front of him. He had a handsome face and a smart will on his forehead. It was not very conspicuous, but it was the icing on the cake. "May I ask where the younger brother is?"

  Chu Xuyuan said proudly, "Do you know General Tang Jinghong?"

   Zeng Zhengming was surprised, "I didn't expect you to be the general's disciple, I'm sorry and disrespectful."

  Chu Xuyuan was a little embarrassed by what was said, and quickly explained, "Actually, Brother Jing Hong didn't accept me as a disciple, because I regarded him as a master in my heart."

   Calling General Tang as Brother Jing Hong, the relationship must be unusual, "Young junior brother is very good at chess, it's because I'm much older that I beat you, and I can't win with martial arts."

   "Brother is too polite." Chu Xuyuan waved his hand, not caring, but very happy, he actually reached the top four. During the competition, he didn't expect that he performed supernormally.

  Then it's time to capture the leader.

  Zeng Zhengming and Nan Yunming sat opposite each other, greeted each other, and started to play chess.

  Nan Yunming is the student with the most powerful chess skills in Yunfei Academy. He is known as a "chess idiot" and is obsessed with playing chess.

There is a river in Shuiyun County. Every afternoon, some old men who like to play chess will play chess by the river for leisure. When Nan Yunming has achieved something in chess, he will challenge them one by one, but all the old men lose. In his hands.

   Later, as soon as those old men saw him, they stopped playing chess and stopped playing with him.

  Chu Xuyuan chose a good angle, and watched without blinking his eyes. Watching more master games will be of great help to his chess skills.

  Chu Xuyao ​​came over, glanced at the arena, and asked in a low voice, "Brother Seven, are you finished playing?"

  Chu Xuyuan had a pleasant expression on his face, "Well, I'm in the top four, isn't it great?"

  Chu Xuyao ​​jokingly said, "Excellent, I thought you would be eliminated in the first round."

  Chu Xuyuan pinched Chu Xuyao's face, "Underestimate people."

  Chu Xuyao ​​smiled and said, "I will never underestimate Seventh Brother in the future."

   "That's more or less."

  …

   Zhou Mansion.

  The butler walked into the study hurriedly, "Master, Miss Qing Zhi said that she has business matters to discuss with you."

  Zhou Xiangfu looked up, "Please."

  The butler walked out quickly and welcomed Chu Qingzhi into the study, "Miss Chu, please sit down."

   "Thank you."

  Zhou Xiangfu came over from behind the desk and sat on the guest chair next to Chu Qingzhi, "Miss Chu, I don't know why I asked you to come here in person?"

  Chu Qingzhi didn't like to beat around the bush, so she said it bluntly, "I heard that the Zhou family raised pearls?"

  Zhou Xiangfu nodded, "I do, but most of them are ordinary pearls. Generally, only one or two top-quality pearls are produced a year, which is very rare. What kind of pearls do you want to buy?"

   "I want the kind of deformed pearls that you throw away. I heard from Jing Hong that you usually throw away those pearls. I wonder if Master Zhou can help you?"

   "Of course, I'll send someone to collect them in a while. I won't sell them at the high price of Miss Chu, but just pay a guy."

   "Thank you, Mr. Zhou."

   "You're welcome." Zhou Xiangfu hesitated and asked, "Miss Chu, you have excellent medical skills. I wonder if you can see a doctor for Peng?"

   "What happened to the clam?"

   "Recently, I don't know what's going on. The mussels keep dying for no reason. Many doctors went to see them, but they didn't see why. So I want to ask Ms. Chu for help."

   "Yes, but you have to go to the scene to see it."

   "I'll take Miss Chu there myself."

  After making some preparations, Zhou Xiangfu took Chu Qingzhi and a few servants to the place where the mussels were raised on horseback.
