The noble boy likes to play chess

Luo Nan looked at the bored Shu Jing who was throwing stones at the leaves outside the window, no matter how he looked, he was a boy of [-] years old, why did he feel a sense of awe for no reason when he approached?

With a sound of "dong", a stone hit the window sill, Luo Nan realized that Shu Jing was looking at him while playing with the stone in one hand.

As soon as I went to Huanyue Tower today, I knew that the news of his beating had already spread. Aunt Xin didn't know whether Shi Ziye and Vice Commander Na Yu would care about it. She didn't dare to ask Shu Jing to teach chess, and suddenly she was free. I didn't know what to do for a while, and seeing that the scholar finally stopped reading, I quickly asked him to come out to relieve the boredom: "Do you have time to play chess with me?"

Luo Nan is not good at playing chess, and wanted to refuse, but couldn't say it out loud, thinking that it would be okay to play chess.

In this round, Luo Nan took the lead, every time he just made a move, Shu Jing followed closely behind, almost without thinking, a few times he felt that his move was alive, and was eaten suddenly, thinking that he made a wrong move, Feeling that he had a chance, he was losing ground after a while. Luo Nan felt that there was no hope of winning, but he was not reconciled. He conceded the defeat and insisted on another game.

Shu Jing thought for a while and said, "Let me give you five sons."

Luo Nan deeply felt that he was underestimated. If it was a respectable old chess master, it would be fine, but this person in front of him was several years younger than himself, which made him accept it. Once his temper came up, Said: "Don't give up, this time, it's Mr. Shu's turn to take the lead."

Hearing what he said, Shu Jing looked at him for a while, as if waiting for him to change his mind, looked at his resolute expression, grinned, twirled the chess piece a few times on his fingertips, and said happily: "Don't regret it oh!"

"Please!"

Shu Jing winked at him mischievously and dropped his head.

Luo Nan's hand holding the chess piece was stiff, and his mouth was open enough to put down an egg. Shu Jing's piece landed in the center of the chessboard. Yu Ping's pattern of fighting for the corners was completely opposite. For a while, he didn't know how to deal with it. .After thinking about it for a long time, he decided to keep the same in response to all changes, and still play chess according to the original routine.

The second son, Shu Jing still gave Luo Nan a big "surprise".

Luo Nan's eyelids twitched, and he suddenly understood why Shu Jing told him not to regret it just now.Since then, he has been in a passive state, watching the precarious chess pieces connect together, so that he has no chance to resist.Luo Nan thought to himself, even if he handed over five pieces, he might not win!

As soon as An Hao came back, he saw Shu Jing lazily leaning halfway on the chair, smiling like a cat stealing a fish, while Luo Nan, drooping his head, sighed.He slapped his head: It's broken, I forgot to tell Luo Nan, don't play chess with the young master!This time, he must have been tricked.

An Hao rushed over and confiscated the chessboard, and glared at Shu Jing dissatisfiedly: "Master, why are you bullying people again! Luo Nan still has to participate in the autumn test, don't hit him!" Then he turned to Luo Nan and said, "My family The young master's temperament is actually quite bad, especially when playing chess, he likes to play tricks on people, but his chess skills are so good that no one can beat him, so if you are not good at chess, don't play chess with this guy , there must be no good fruit to eat!"

Luo Nan agreed in his heart, but dared not show it.

Shu Jing seemed to have just remembered: "Oh, didn't he be able to enter the re-examination last year? Why, he has prepared for an extra year, and he has no confidence?"

Luo Nan was taken aback by Shu Jing's words. It seemed reasonable, but he also had some thoughts: "I prepared for an extra year, and so did others. If I don't work harder than others, how can I be shortlisted?"

"That being said, you really should work hard." Shu Jing played with the chess pieces and asked casually, "Then you lost the election last time, do you know why?"

"This is naturally because I don't have enough knowledge."

"Not necessarily. If you and An Hao choose one to be an official, I will choose An Hao instead of you."

"Why?" Luo Nan asked anxiously with wide-eyed eyes.

An Hao also looked at him in surprise.

Shu Jing smiled lightly: "Luo Nan, you only read the books of sages and sages, and you don't hear anything outside the window. As an official, how can you not know the affairs of the world? An Hao's books are not as much as you, and you may not understand the truth better than you." You are less, you are so sophisticated, you are even worse than him."

"Young master, you mean that I can also be an official?" An Hao asked pleasantly.

Shu Jing knocked him on the head: "If you become an official, you are also a corrupt official. Doing business is more suitable for you." This An Hao only knows a few words, and when it comes to money, he is very good at abacus , I was deceived at first, but now I am getting more and more sophisticated, trying to cheat him under his nose, there is no way!

An Hao was disappointed again all of a sudden: "The young master still said that, which made me happy for nothing."

Luo Nan thought disapprovingly: I am a person who has read the scriptures, how could I not be as good as a follower?Mr. Shu must be biased, but he couldn't help but look at An Hao, thinking that he was the one who dragged himself to this place at the beginning, and he was the one who scolded him. Beijing's trivial matters, so that he can know the latest news without leaving the hospital. He does have advantages that he does not have.

Luo Nan suddenly thought of a question. He looked at Shu Jing, and finally couldn't help but ask: "If Mr. Shu participates in the autumn examination, not to mention the top prize, it is no problem to get an official position. Why don't you give it a try?"

"Everyone has their own aspirations, I'm used to being at my own pace." Shu Jing said, then got up and left, and called An Hao by the way, "Let's go, let's cook."

Shu Jing's cooking is something that many people look forward to. An Hao naturally follows up happily, but he still doesn't forget to come back and remind Luo Nan: "My young master loves to travel around and see the wonders of the world. Don’t mention it again in the future. Wait until there’s something delicious, I’ll starve you to death!”

A gentleman stays away from the kitchen. This is something he has known since he was a child. Like him, he has never stepped into the kitchen. He can't understand why a young master cooks.Speaking of which, he still doesn't know what this young master Shu Jing does, business?Rich farmers?He has lived here for some time, but he has never noticed it. It is often said in the book that an official must have a parental heart, know the affairs of the people, and solve the worries of the people. He has never even paid attention to the things around him. To be an official.

Luo Nan thought back on everything that happened after meeting them, recalled the words and deeds of the selected people in the re-examination last year, compared them one by one, and suddenly realized that he was not selected because of lack of knowledge, but because he studied hard and followed the scriptures , I don't know what to do!Thinking of this, he went into the kitchen and bowed deeply to Shu Jing: "Listening to your words is better than reading for ten years, Luo Nan thank you Mr. Shu for your advice!"

The buzzing voice drowned out his words, and he wanted to say it again, but unexpectedly, An Hao kicked him out and ordered him not to go in and disturb the young master again.He hadn't eaten anything made by Shu Jing yet, so he naturally didn't know An Hao's expectation, so he stood blankly outside the door.
