Save the Bachelor of Heaven

Chapter 2791: 2793 [Battle for Inheritance]

   "Grandma, I heard that you have been unwell recently, so I searched for some tonics to help you nourish yourself." Xiang Nan came to see the Empress Dowager and said.

"Well, good boy, you have a heart." The empress dowager nodded when she saw him, "Hey, I have often dreamed about your elder brother and second brother these days... Hey, they are still so young, why are they so young? let's go..."

   "Grandma, don't be too sad, it's important to take care of your health." Xiang Nan comforted.

   "Cheng Yin, do you know where Cheng Ye is buried?" The Empress Dowager asked again, "I dreamed that he said his feet were cold."

   "A sandy land along the southern edge of the Yongji Canal in the north of the city." Xiang Nan replied, "I'll take someone to have a look when I turn around, and burn some more clothes and a few pairs of good shoes for my second brother."

   "Good boy." The Empress Dowager nodded with tears in her eyes, "Why do you still think about him~"

  Xiang Nan knew where Li Chengye's grave was, and he must have visited it before.

   Unlike Li Chengwen and Li Chengyuan, Bai had been brothers for more than 20 years. After Li Chengye's death, not only did he not feel sad at all, but they also fought for the crown prince that he vacated.

  …

  Xiang Nan then led people to help Li Chengye consolidate the tomb, and helped him burn paper figurines, paper horses, clothes, shoes and socks, and helped the Empress Dowager to settle a matter.

  He did these things and didn't tell anyone.

  However, Li Xi soon found out.

  Knowing that Xiang Nan has done everything for Li Chengye, Li Zhen nodded.

   Later, he asked his three sons to play chess together.

  The fourth prince Li Chengyuan who played against him first.

  Li Chengyuan's character is dull, timid and cowardly. When playing chess, he hesitates and hesitates. After playing for a while, he is already at a loss.

  Xiang Nan and Li Chengwen were watching the chess from the sidelines.

   "Fourth brother, the third line is low!" Li Chengwen reminded upon seeing this.

  Xiang Nan thought to himself, watching chess without talking is a real gentleman!

   Li Chengwen opened his mouth to remind him that he had already committed a taboo.

   No wonder, as soon as Li Chengye fell, he couldn't wait to jump out and make irresponsible remarks on the government. His character was too impulsive.

   "Since your fourth brother is undecided, Cheng Wen, you come and help him!" Seeing this, Li Xi said.

   "I obey the order." Li Chengwen immediately got up and sat down in front of the chessboard.

   Li Chengyuan was not pretentious, and directly gave up his position.

  Xiang Nan shook his head after looking at it.

  He knew that what Li Xi liked was a prince who was cold-blooded, ruthless, and daring to fight, like a wolf, so that he could defend the rich dynasty.

  But Li Chengyuan's personality is too gentle, he has no blood at all, and lacks talent, so he is really not a candidate for the crown prince.

  …

   After Li Chengwen took his seat, he picked up several chess pieces and landed them on the chessboard with a bang.

  The so-called authorities are obsessed, but bystanders are clear.

  He was watching the chess from the sidelines just now, and he already had some calculations in his mind, so he played the first few moves very quickly, without thinking, and aggressively.

  Compared to this, Li Xi's chess style is still unhurried and steady.

  After the three chess pieces were played, Li Chengwen was stumped, and began to hesitate while holding the chess pieces.

  Xiang Nan knew that he was not only reckless and impulsive, but also worthless.

  Li Xi looked at his third son, although his face changed slightly, his eyes turned cold, "Cheng Yin, what do you think?"

   "My son is clumsy, so I dare not speak nonsense." Xiang Nan bowed his head.

  When Li Chengwen heard it, he thought that Xiang Nan was insinuating, so he couldn't help but glared at him viciously.

   "Come here, come and have a try." Li Bi saw it in his eyes and said.

   "Yes, father." Xiang Nan stood up and came to the chessboard.

   And Li Chengwen didn't want to leave yet, but at this moment, he had to step down and give up his seat to Xiang Nan.

  …

   After Xiang Nan took his seat, the game continued.

  With his IQ and his chess skills, it is not difficult to beat Li Xi.

  In the play, Li Chengyin chooses to hide his clumsiness. He obviously has a chance to turn defeat into victory, but he has to admit defeat.

  He can’t be wrong in doing so, but it’s not smart either.

  Because he still doesn't understand Li Bi.

   What Li Xi wanted was a cold-blooded, ruthless, and daring heir. His education philosophy for the heir was that the weak prey on the strong, and the winner is king.

  So he can win but not win, in Li Xi's view, he is not qualified enough.

  It was only because King Rong and King Yun stretched their hips too much that they could only pull out generals in a slump.

  So Xiang Nan is different from Li Chengyin, after he played three chess pieces, he already showed signs of turning defeat into victory. But he didn't stop there, but continued playing chess.

  When Li Xi saw it, he also tried his best to deal with Xiang Nan.

  However, Xiang Nan's IQ and chess strength are much higher than him.

  Although Li Xi fought in every possible way, he was finally killed and defeated.

   "I lost~" Li Zhen shook his head and said.

   Li Chengwen and Li Chengyuan watched from the sidelines, almost terrified to death. They didn't expect the fifth younger brother to be so reckless and dare to beat his father. Isn't this going to be reversed?

   "Thank you, Father, for your acceptance." Xiang Nan cupped his hands.

   "Okay, I'm looking for you to have a small gathering today, let you waste your brains for a long time, you guys go back and rest!" Li Wei said immediately.

   "Farewell, son!" The three got up and left.

  Out of the palace gate, Li Chengwen and Li Chengyuan were far away from Xiang Nan, as if approaching him would bring bad luck.

  Xiang Nan didn't care, and walked home.

  …

   "Cao Ji, what do you think of playing chess with them today?" After they left, Li Ze asked Cao Ji, his valet.

   "The old slave is dull and doesn't know much about chess games." Cao Ji said modestly.

   "You know what's in your heart, so tell me." Li Xi glanced at him and said.

   They are all old buddies, and they are still playing tricks in front of him!

   "Yes." Cao Ji nodded, and then began to comment, "Yun Wangzhan thought about it for a long time when playing chess, but he hesitated too much.

   King Rong is aggressive and brave, and he plays chess neatly, but he doesn't take into account the overall situation. King Yi went on to play this end game, advancing and retreating wisely, and with only a few moves, he had a chance to reverse the outcome.

  Excellent chess skills, steady chess style, step by step, majestic. It seems to be very different from the previous five princes. "

  Before, Li Chengyin had a lazy personality and didn't like to be competitive. But Cai Cai's chess style is quite different from his previous personality.

"What you said is indeed right." Li Xi nodded, "Cheng Wen and Cheng Yuan are still lacking in enthusiasm after all. Cheng Yin is different, he is smart, courageous, and solid. I was worried that he would not dare to win, but now it seems that, I have always underestimated him. Only when he is in the bag can he stand out, and it is time for me to put him in the bag."

   Seeing what he said, Cao Ji shut up sensiblely.

   At the same time, Zhang Meiniang was beating Li Chengwen's biological mother, Wei Xiuyi.

  She asked Gao Ming to take action and caught Li Chengwen's handle.

  Although he stated that he wanted to prohibit foreign relatives from intervening in politics, in fact, he wooed foreign relatives, borrowed money from grandpa and uncle selling officials and embezzlement, soliciting and corrupting courtiers, and colluding with local officials...

  If these scandals are publicized, not only he, the prince, will be finished, but Wei Xiuyi's family members will also be buried with him.

  Wei Xiuyi was frightened all of a sudden.

  Many years of fighting in the palace had already let her know how fierce the queen is, so she didn't dare to fight with the queen any longer.

   If she continues to fight, she is afraid that she will be completely defeated.
