Master Jin sighed deeply and stood up: "Wanrong, you play the next game with Jiarui."
"Ah?" Jin Wanrong was confused.
Master Jin nodded and said, "It would be too much of an insult for me to play chess with him. You come."
As Master Jin spoke, he gave up his seat.
Jin Wanrong was confused and walked forward and sat opposite Shen Jiarui.
The people of Tianqi are open-minded and do not impose too many restrictions on women.
It is not considered rude to play chess with elders in the presence of others.
Moreover, the Emperor and the Empress Dowager were interested in bringing them together. The Shen family seemed very satisfied with Jin Wanrong, so Master Jin was also willing to create some opportunities for Jin Wanrong and Shen Jiarui to get along.
Jin Wanrong didn't refuse and sat down directly. In a few seconds, she put the chess pieces on the board back into the porcelain pot. She picked up another black piece and placed it on the lower left side of the chessboard.
Shen Jiarui quickly picked up a white piece, thought for a moment, and placed it next to the black piece.
The black and white pieces fell alternately, and no one spoke.
The atmosphere became a little strange.
Shen Jiarui and Jin Wanrong looked at each other from time to time, and lowered their heads to think from time to time. Both of them were a little distracted.
Shen Jiayan, who was standing aside, couldn't help but feel worried, but Master Jin had a kind look in his eyes and a warm smile.
Although Jin Wanrong secretly let Shen Jiarui go, he still didn't seize the opportunity. Jin Wanrong secretly glanced at Master Jin.
Master Jin said, "Just play chess. Why are you looking at me? Don't be distracted."
"yes."
Helpless, Jin Wanrong no longer retreated.
So, after a few rounds, Shen Jiarui's chess pieces were blocked and became dead.
"Miss Jin's chess skills are superb, I admire her."
"Thank you, General."
The two of them politely complimented each other, and then the atmosphere became a little awkward again.
Shen Jiarui was even scratching his sleeves unnaturally.
Master Jin stroked his beard. "You make friends through chess, and you get to know people through chess. You can roughly guess a person's personality and character from the way they play. Wanrong, what do you think of Jiarui?"
Grandfather actually asked her to comment on Shen Jiarui in front of everyone? Isn't this too rude?
He even said something like "judging a person by his chess skills." Where did that fallacy come from? What was he planning?
Although Jin Wanrong thought so in her heart, she still replied obediently, "The General of the Cavalry is down-to-earth and cautious. Sometimes... sometimes he can be unexpected and difficult to predict. Fortunately, Wanrong has learned chess since she was a child, otherwise she might not have won."
Miss Wanrong was not only an excellent chess player, but also came up with so many words to praise him, giving him enough face.
She is indeed a talented lady from a scholarly family. She is so bold!
"Jia Rui, what about you? What kind of person do you think Wanrong is?" asked Master Jin.
"ah?"
Shen Jiarui was stunned, obviously not expecting that Master Jin would ask him this.
He raised his eyes to look at Jin Wanrong, only to find that she was also smiling and looking at him gently and generously.
So, he grinned and replied with a simple and honest smile: "Miss Wanrong is naturally beautiful and kind-hearted. She is both talented and beautiful, well-educated and well-mannered. She is the most gentle and interesting woman I have ever met."
Shen Jiarui's praise was generous and came from the heart.
He wanted to use all the beautiful words.
The admiration in his eyes was even harder to hide.
The Grand Tutor was very pleased to see this.
I thought it was the Queen Mother and the Emperor who forced the marriage. But now I see that these two people really have feelings for each other.
Shen Jiarui looks dull, but he is a good person and capable.
Mr. Shen was easy to get along with, and Shen Jiayan was a good brother. The eldest princess was also a simple-minded person.
If Wanrong married into the Shen family, she would not be bullied.
Marriage is a matter of a lifetime. Only when two people love each other will their lives be full of energy and they will complement each other.
only……
Nothing has been decided yet. All matters will have to wait until Shen Jiarui returns triumphantly.
so……
Master Jin stepped forward, patted Shen Jiarui on the shoulder, and said earnestly, "Jiarui, take good care of yourself on this expedition. When you return, I will discuss an important matter with you."
