In Chunsong Hutong, Zhao Hao discussed a strategy with the old man, then he took out the newly made glass checkers and explained the rules of the game to him.
"Hmm, hmm." Zhao Liben listened very seriously, thought for a moment and said, "My dear grandson, if you want to play checkers well, you probably need to be smart."
The implication is that as long as it involves some tricks, Sun Za can never beat his grandfather.
"Hmph, at least I can break the record of zero first." Zhao Hao arranged the two-colored glass balls, picked up one and dropped it steadily.
No matter how strong Zhao Liben's calculating ability is, there has to be a stage to get started.
Sure enough, not long after the two of them played, Zhao Hao had already placed nine checkers in his grandfather's position.
And Zhao Liben still has most of his chess pieces left to move.
"Hahahaha..." Zhao Hao laughed and took another step. With only one step left, he would change the record to 'fifty to one'.
The old man, who had a strong desire to win, twisted the black glass beads with a bitter face, and was reluctant to let go.
Suddenly the door curtain was lifted, and Wang Wuyang, Hua Shuyang and four others came in one after another and knelt in front of the kang.
"What happened?" Without waiting for Zhao Hao to speak, Zhao Liben threw the glass beads onto the chessboard.
Whether intentionally or unintentionally, the glass bead fell into Zhao Hao's pile of red glass beads.
Immediately, the pearls and jades scattered...
"Uh..." Zhao Hao stared at the old man who was playing tricks on him, and he had the urge to slam the chessboard on his face.
Of course, it's just a thought.
"Replying to Grand Master, we have caused trouble for Master." Wang Wuyang cried, "We have also implicated Grand Master..."
As they spoke, several of them recounted the entire story that had happened before, one after another.
"What? My father beat Xu Fan? And he beat him severely?" Zhao Hao was so shocked that he couldn't close his mouth. Did his father eat explosives? Or did he awaken some extraordinary bloodline?
"Alas." Zhao Liben was not surprised. He sighed and said, "This damn guy, his old problem has come back again."
"Ah? An old problem?" Zhao Hao and others looked at the old man in surprise.
"He was like this when he was young. He would not care about anything if he got mad at someone. Once, he threw Zhang Gelao's son into the moat and almost drowned him." Zhao Liben said depressedly, "I thought he had changed after having a son, but it turns out he is still the same."
"Grandmaster scolded Xu Fan, saying 'You bad guy, you want to kill my son', and then started to beat him." The eldest senior brother did not forget to offer his flattery today and said, "Master and Grandmaster, there is a deep love between father and son. Of course, Grandmaster's great-grandmaster also has a deep love between father and son. Master's great-grandmaster has a deep love between grandfather and grandson..."
"Didn't my father tell me where he was hiding?" Zhao Hao came back to his senses and asked.
"Master didn't say, he just said it's very safe and it's inconvenient to take us there." Hua Shuyang hurriedly replied: "I don't know where it is."
"Where else could it be?" Zhao Liben spat, looking unhappy. "When he didn't have a chance, he was still trying to find an excuse to go. Now that he has an excuse, why doesn't he just go in and never come out?"
"Ahem." Zhao Hao coughed awkwardly twice, indicating that his grandfather and his disciples were present. Then he smiled awkwardly and said, "But there is no place safer or more reassuring than that."
"Safety is fine, but peace of mind? Humph..." Zhao Liben sneered and did not say anything else in the end.
He looked at his disciples and said, "Just stay at home and relax. The Ming Dynasty still treats officials reasonably. As long as you don't take any action, no one can do anything to you."
"Grandmaster, we were planning to help." Jin Xuezeng said with a wry smile, "But Grandmaster was too fast. He knocked him down in a few moves. We couldn't help even if we wanted to."
"You're right, you didn't do anything." Zhao Liben snorted, "One troublesome thing is enough. If there are too many, it will cost me my life!"
"Okay, you guys go. This is just enough time for you to study Intermediate Mathematics on your own so you can prepare for class." Zhao Hao waved his hand and asked his disciples to leave.
"Yes, Master." The disciples went out with shame on their faces.
The so-called "Intermediate Mathematics" is junior high school algebra. Zhao Hao originally planned to rely on this book to get by for a few days. But as he understood the strength of his disciples, he knew that this thing was a piece of cake for them, so it was better not to show off.
I changed my words and told my students that "Intermediate Mathematics" is the foundation of the formal class. But because it is too simple, I don't want to waste my breath on it, so you can study it on your own...
After all the disciples left, Zhao Hao asked Zhao Liben, "Grandpa, what should we do?"
"Haven't we discussed this? Let's do what we need to do." Zhao Liben calmly put the glass ball back on the chessboard. "Xu Fan has attacked you several times, shouldn't you give him a beating? He's already over 40, does Xu Jie still have the nerve to seek revenge for his son?"
"As for the people below, my good grandson can take care of them. Why should I worry about them?" Zhao Liben glanced at Zhao Hao and said confidently.
"Grandpa, do you have any misunderstanding about your grandson's power?" Zhao Hao said with a smile: "Yes, he has some shares in Xishan Mining, but it's just a little bit. He doesn't need to care about my father's life or death."
"Then leave it to that vicious woman!" Zhao Liben waved his hand and sneered, "She treats your father like a piece of gold, so you have to clean up his ass!"
"Another game!" he said as he placed a move.
~~
The grandfather and grandson were right in their guess. Zhao Shou was planning to seek refuge in the Princess's Mansion.
But he didn't dare let anyone see him entering the Princess's Mansion, so he deliberately took a long detour and came to Andingmen Street.
Fearing that his official robe would be too conspicuous, he bought an inconspicuous hemp robe, gave the robe he had taken off to Fang Wen, and told him to go home and report his safety.
Then he came wearing a bamboo hat, rolled up his trouser legs, and wearing straw sandals.
Fang Wen couldn't help but worry, would he be kicked out for wearing this outfit?
As expected, Mr. Zhao's attire was concealed enough, but he was stopped by the police at Shiwangfu Street.
"Get away from me, you dog! Is this a place you can come to?"
"Uh..." Master Zhao blinked his innocent eyes, not expecting that he had gone too far.
Just when I didn't know what to do, I saw Eunuch Ji riding on a horse, rushing out.
"Eunuch Chicken." Zhao Shouzheng called out hurriedly.
"Oh..." Ji Sizheng was out looking for him. Hearing the sound, he quickly pulled the reins of his horse and asked in surprise, "Zhao...who is that?"
"Oh." Zhao Shouzheng was stunned when he heard this, thinking who else could I find? But then he thought, yes, avoid suspicion.
Then he smiled and said, "I'm here to see the young lord."
"Well, then follow me in." Ji Sizheng nodded, thinking that he was worthy of being the top scholar, and he was indeed smart.
You said you were looking for the young Lord, full marks.
If you say you’re looking for the eldest princess, you get zero points.
~~
The Princess's Mansion.
Upon learning that Zhao Shouzheng came to him for help, Li Chengen was overjoyed and came out to greet him happily.
"Hey, old senior, you have brought honor to our fellow practitioners today!"
Li Chengen came up and gave Zhao Shouzheng a bear hug, very excited. "I told you, we men are the kind of people who either make a noise or become a sensation. If we don't fight, we'll be nothing, but if we fight, we'll be a little cabinet minister!"
The Ten Princes' Palace Street is near the imperial palace, and as it concerns Zhao Shouzheng, the Jinyi Guard Captain Niu naturally reported it first.
Just now, Eunuch Ji was ordered by the eldest princess to go out to look for the second master.
"Oh, it's fun to fight, but I have to hide after the fight." Zhao Shouzheng sighed.
"It's really exciting to run away after the fight." Li Chengen put his arms around his neck, patting his chest loudly and said:
"Old senior, you can think of me at this time, which means you treat me as a friend! Just stay in the mansion and stay as long as you want. No one can disturb you!"
As he said this, he glanced at Ji Sizheng and said, feeling safe, "This is a matter between me and the senior, so don't tell my mother."
"Oh, okay." Ji Sizheng nodded, smiling bitterly in his heart, you're in for a treat.
