The chess competition will not start for another half a month. As a disciple of Master Xiao Yuan, it is easy for Jiang Chuyuan to get a few invitations.
This invitation also means that you are eligible to participate, but whether you want to participate or just watch is entirely up to your personal preference.
It is similar to the swimming competition. There is one person defending the challenge first. If others think they can win, they can challenge him. But if they think they cannot win, they can give up.
The person standing on the stage at the end wins.
In addition, there is another way to win directly.
That is to solve the endgame. Every year, Master Xiao Yuan will present a difficult chess game. If anyone can solve it, he can be directly recorded as a nominal master.
However, this item has been ignored. After all, in the past ten years, no one has ever figured out the endgame created by Master Xiao Yuan.
Soon, the day of the Donglin Chess Academy competition arrived.
When they arrived, the chess academy was already surrounded by people.
These people are not qualified to enter and watch the game, but in order to satisfy chess lovers, Donglin Chess Academy will also synchronize the game situation in real time.
Therefore, those people waiting outside can also watch the chess game.
Jiang Chuyuan took them in through the side door. He was an examiner and had a lot of things to do.
After handing them over to a servant, he left.
The servant led them into the private room on the second floor.
"How can we watch the game here?" Jiang Qingluo asked puzzledly.
The boy smiled and did not answer. Instead, he walked to a wooden door and pushed it gently, and the door moved away.
In an instant, the entire competition venue on the first floor came into view.
This is a really great viewing position.
【Ruan Hezhu and Song Yu.】
Hearing Jiang Qingwan's thoughts, Jiang Qingluo looked around, and unexpectedly found that the person was right next to them.
When their eyes met, Song Yu and Jiang Qingluo felt a little embarrassed.
Song Yu didn't expect to meet Jiang Qingluo here. He thought that she didn't understand chess and wouldn't join in the fun.
He was still panicking, not because he was afraid that Jiang Qingluo would catch him and Ruan Hezhu together, but because he was afraid that she would make a big fuss in public again.
All the people here today are elegant people. If she acts like a shrew and makes a big fuss, he will be laughed at by the whole capital.
Thinking of this, he wondered how to stop her. If it came to that, she might take action.
Just when he looked solemn and ready for battle, Jiang Qingluo smiled.
"Prince, Miss Ruan, what a coincidence."
"It's really a coincidence that Miss Jiang is also here to participate in the competition?" Ruan Hezhu was not embarrassed at all.
"I just came here to join in the fun and make Miss Ruan laugh. I don't understand chess."
Hearing this, Ruan Hezhu breathed a sigh of relief. She thought she was going to lose to Jiang Qingluo in chess.
In the past half month, Ruan Hezhu hardly went out and has been intensively studying her chess skills. She has no confidence in today's game.
But she still came. What if there was a chance? She is the protagonist of this world, and there must be some opportunity waiting for her.
I have to say that Ruan Hezhu has a really good mentality. In her heart, the world revolves around her.
No matter whether they are royal relatives or talented men and beautiful women, they cannot compare to her luck.
Jiang Qingwan shook her head in her heart. When she read the book before, she only thought that the heroine was strong and confident. Now that she is in the story, she only thinks that she is conceited.
Whether this world is real or in a book, everyone has flesh and blood, soul, and is an independent individual.
It doesn't exist to set off anyone.
Seeing that Jiang Qingluo showed no signs of anger, Song Yu secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but was also a little confused.
It has been a long time since I saw her in front of me. Is she playing hard to get, or does she have a new love?
However, he quickly abandoned the latter idea. Jiang Qingluo's feelings for him were obvious, and she would not easily fall in love with someone else.
What's more, I haven't heard of any other man appearing around her.
Perhaps he knew that his previous behavior would annoy him, so he changed his approach.
However, no matter what she did, he would not like it. Thinking of this, he felt a rare sense of guilt.
He had been using Jiang Qingluo from the beginning to the end. Now that he had a better choice, he would soon break off the engagement with her.
"Prince, the game is about to begin."
Seeing him staring at Jiang Qingluo, Ruan Hezhu felt a little unhappy.
[Now that the older sister doesn't bother the heroine anymore, and the hero and heroine haven't gone through those hardships, I thought their relationship would progress slowly. But now it seems like it's progressing much faster than in the book.]
[It seems that the male protagonist Song Yu is destined to only like the female protagonist. ]
Hearing this, Jiang Qingluo felt a little lonely. Is he destined to only like Ruan Hezhu and not fall in love with himself?
To him, I was just an obstacle to his relationship with Ruan Hezhu. Apart from wanting to get rid of me, I probably had no other thoughts.
It’s not easy to forget someone you’ve liked for so long, even if you know you two won’t be together.
Sensing her sadness, Jiang Qingwan softly called out, "Sister."
【Don't be sad, Song Yu is not worth it. 】
"It's okay, sister. It will be fine."
Now that she has Jiang Qingwan, she won’t feel empty inside even if she doesn’t see Song Yu.
It is difficult to forget someone, but you will forget him or her sooner or later.
She once thought that she didn't care about anything and just wanted to be her legal wife. Now she knows that even the position of legal wife does not belong to her.
If she forced it, she would probably be covered in scars just like in her other life.
For him, I have already paid the price of my family being broken up and my loved ones dying. I cannot be so selfish in this life anymore.
At worst, she can just stay with her parents and never get married.
[Sister, you will definitely find your ideal husband. When I regain my magical powers, I will ask Yue Lao to help you find a good match.]
Jiang Qingluo pinched Jiang Qingwan's nose and said, "Let's watch the game."
Jiang Qingwan nodded and looked towards the competition venue on the first floor.
At this time, Jiang Chuyuan stood on the high platform in the middle and explained the rules of the game to everyone.
This competition is open to both men and women and everyone can participate.
This time is different from the competition with Fairy Biyou, there are not many young men and women from aristocratic families coming.
Most of them are people of ordinary backgrounds who are eager to take this opportunity to rise to the top.
The first person to come on stage was a woman from a merchant family. She had her face covered so that her appearance could not be seen clearly.
The man who played chess with her was an old man in his fifties. He was hunched over, shaking his head and looking very confident.
The possibility of not winning is not determined by age.
Unfortunately, he was defeated in just half an incense stick of time.
But soon, the masked woman also lost, and the competition was in full swing.
Before they had time to celebrate their victory, they lost again in a moment.
Back and forth, no one could last three rounds.
