Chapter 459: Chapter 459: Chess moves for the son-in-law

Ling Xuan listened to Zhao Qingquan’s words and frowned slightly. “Your Highness wants to use chess moves for the son-in-law?”

Zhao Qingquan said, “That’s right. Please help me, Master.”

Ling Xuan fiddled with a Buddhist bead of his own and said, “I can’t help you with this.”

Zhao Qingquan stood up and asked, “Why? Now that Uncle Zhao’s residence is declining in Chang ‘an, the Zhao family’s ancestors are a famous aristocratic family. Now that they have the title of nobility, if I can become the son-in-law, I will definitely be able to restore the Zhao family, brother…”

Ling Xuan glared at Zhao Qingquan and said, “Amitabha. I have long entered Buddhism. There is only Ling Xuan here, not almsgiver’s elder brother.”

Zhao Qingquan said, “Auntie already knows about this. Can’t you help our Zhao family this time for Auntie’s sake?”

Ling Xuan closed his eyes and turned the Buddha Pearl in his hand, no longer paying attention to Zhao Qingquan.

Zhao Qingquan angrily flicked his sleeves and left. “Ling Xuan, it’s fine if you don’t want to help. Without your help, I might be able to become the Prince Consort!”

Not long ago, he had recruited the powerful go masters of Chang ‘an. With the help of those go masters, he might be able to win against Ling Xuan.

After Ling Xuan sent Zhao Qingquan off, he looked at Zhao Qingquan’s back with a hint of unconcealable envy in his eyes. If he had not been recognized as a Buddha by the Prime Minister Temple as soon as he was born and had grown up in the secular world.., he would definitely not let go now.

Ling Xuan entered a dark room and lit a candle. He took a small knife from the side and ruthlessly cut his own arm.

In front of where the knife had cut, there was a scar. This scar was caused by a series of master’s orders when he had been bewitched when he was young and followed a few monks to secretly catch pheasants.

This knife had eliminated the evil karma, allowing him to see this scar and remember not to break the rules.

Ling Xuan watched the blood continuously drip onto the ground, gradually forgetting the lively figure in his heart.

On the eighth day of the twelfth lunar month, there were many pilgrims from the Prime Minister Temple. Some of them came to taste a bowl of Laba congee from the Prime Minister Temple.

Outside the Prime Minister Temple, the Princess’ceremony was grand and grand.

Ling Xuan heard that Princess Weiyang had arrived. As the abbot of the Prime Minister Temple, he had to go out to welcome her. When he reached the door, Ling Xuan bowed to Lu Weiyang and said, “Your Highness.”

Lu Weiyang looked at the man in front of him, whom he had not seen for almost a month, and said coldly, “I am going to select a prince consort in Chang ‘an city tomorrow. I want to invite Master Ling Xuan to go and observe.”

Ling Xuan pressed his palms together and said, “I have no choice but to obey the princess’order. However, there is a spiritual conference in the Prime Minister Temple Tomorrow, and as the abbot, I am unable to escape. Please forgive me, Princess.”

Lu Weiyang sneered, “Master, is it really for the spiritual conference?”

Ling Xuan said, “Yes.”

Lu Weiyang stared at Ling Xuan’s face. His eyes were as pure as before, and no change could be seen on his face. He really did not care about her anymore.

Lu Weiyang clenched his hands. She was really too stupid. The dignified princess had become restless and sorrowful because of him, but he was still the high and mighty abbot of the Prime Minister Temple, and also the son of Buddha who could not move the hearts of mortals.

“Tomorrow, I will choose a prince consort,”Lu Weiyang said.

Ling Xuan smiled slightly and said, “Then congratulations, Your Highness.”

Lu weiyang frowned and said, “I’m going to find someone else to be the prince consort. Is that a happy thing for you?”

Ling Xuan put his palms together and said, “If the princess can find a good man to be the prince consort, I will naturally be happy for her highness.”

Lu Weiyang wanted to find out from Ling Xuan’s expression that he was lying, but his eyes told her that he was happy and did not care about her at all.

She was the only one who was silly and still worried about Ling Xuan. Tomorrow was the day of the selection of the prince consort, but she still did not give up and came here. She was very cheap.

..

Princess Weiyang’s matchmaking ring was set up outside the palace gate. Many people had rushed over early in the morning. There was a huge iron chessboard hanging on the side with magnetic chess pieces on it.

With every step on the stage, the palace staff would stick the chess pieces on the huge iron chessboard for the audience to admire.

Those who could come here to compete in the match of marriage naturally had to hand over the chess books they had played in the past. There were a total of ten people who were shortlisted, and each of them was a young master from the city of Chang ‘an.

The format of the competition was two-on-two chess games, and the winner was determined by five people. Among the five winners, one of them could draw lots to advance directly, and the other four people would still have two winners in two-on-two chess games. The three people would then play chess separately, the winner would play against Weiyang.

The chess competition started in the morning. They rested for a while at noon. It was not until dusk that the winner, Zhao Qingquan, was decided.

When Lu Weiyang saw that Zhao Qingquan had won, she was quite curious. She had played against Zhao Qingquan before, but his chess was far from this good.

The palace maid at the side lit up the sandalwood incense. Lu Weiyang touched the Buddha bead in her hand and said, “Let’s begin.”

Lu Weiyang played the white piece first, so her first move was naturally to play Tianyuan.

Zhao Qingquan saw the Buddha bead in Lu Weiyang’s hand and said, “This string of Buddha beads belongs to Master Ling Xuan, right?”

“You Know Him?”

Zhao Qingquan said, “Master Ling Xuan was my cousin when he was a layman.”

Lu Weiyang understood and said, “I see, let’s continue.”

Lu Weiyang looked at Zhao Qingquan’s fierce go style. He did not expect that his go skills had improved so much in just a month’s time.

In a private room in a teahouse not far away, Lady Zhao smiled at Ling Xuan and said, “I haven’t seen you for a long time. I really can’t even invite you. Today, you must accompany me to finish playing this game.”

Ling Xuan said, “Lady Zhao, this little monk has already become a monk.”

Lady Zhao looked at her son and said, “Let’s play.”

First Madam Zhao looked at the little servant girl at the side and gestured with her actions. Then, she counted the pieces on the chessboard and placed a stone.

Ling Xuan looked at the position where first Madam Zhao placed the stone. The first move was Tianyuan, and the way she placed the stone was very similar to Lu Weiyang’s.

Ling Xuan looked at his arm.

His unscabbed arm was still hurting. He thought that he could endure it.

However, he should not have thought of Lu Weiyang after playing chess.

On the stage, Lu Weiyang and Zhao Qingquan were playing chess. Their initial underestimation of the opponent had turned into a serious confrontation. How could that be possible? How could a person’s go skills change so much in such a short period of time?

Moreover, she was too familiar with this go style. This was clearly Ling Xuan’s way of playing chess.

Because Zhao Qingquan had placed a black piece, the people watching the battle praised, “Good, this chess piece is very well placed!”

“I see that Crown Prince Zhao’s chess style is very similar to master Ling Xuan’s.”

“Crown Prince Zhao is master Ling Xuan’s secular cousin. Since they are brothers, perhaps their chess style is similar too.”

After Lu Weiyang placed a piece, she did not see Zhao Qingquan place a piece for a long time. She felt strange in her heart. Zhao Qingquan did not need to think about her position at all.

She followed Zhao Qingquan’s gaze and saw all the people who came to watch the game. Just when Lu Weiyang was curious about what he was looking at, she saw Zhao Qingquan place a stone next to her stone.
