Looking at the chessboard, hesitated for a long time, Zhang Liang finally put down the chess piece and said helplessly: "It's because my subordinate lost. The young master's chess power is beyond his reach."

"That's because your vision is too narrow. Chess pieces are just weapons in the hands of the chess player. What you need to pay attention to is not the chess board or the chess piece, but the chess player himself, a person... The state of every day is

Different, different thoughts, different emotions, different moods... and all the traces of this will be reflected on the chessboard. Before studying the chessboard, you should care more about your opponent's condition today? Then adjust yourself according to the opponent's condition.

The strategy and layout of the world are invincible only because you see farther than him, not that you have better abilities than him.”

Zhang Liang thought to himself and said, "Thank you for your teachings."

Mu Chen patted Zhang Liang and said, "You have a high talent and a good overall view. If you reflect and study carefully, you should have a breakthrough immediately. As long as you can calculate the opponent's next action, take the lead, and do anything.

Let's be in your heart."

"Then... Young Master, how many steps can you see in the chess game?"

"It's almost...it's all, because at the beginning of this game, I almost guessed how you would lose."

Zhang Liang asked in confusion: "Why is this? Can the young master see the future?"

"It's not that mysterious, but I've set up a game from the beginning and introduced you into the game step by step. Your result is almost ten steps after you've confirmed that the chess are like a battlefield, as long as you can control everything of your opponent.

Information, understand the opponent's personality and psychological changes, it is not difficult to invite you into the trap. In addition, you have a sense of awe of me. Playing chess is too conservative, only defending but not attacking, only seeking to protect yourself, playing chess is too overly

Being reserved, you will never win me. If you want to win, you must first overcome the awe of me in your heart."

Zhang Liang smiled and said, "This... is too difficult. The young master's talent is indeed beyond the comparison of ordinary people like us. I'd better ask Wu Yong and the others to play chess."

"It's up to you. You have just been in Go for a while and your chess skills are not strong. It's really not suitable to play chess with me. When your chess skills improve in the future, playing chess with me will be more beneficial to you. This is also a kind of experience.

”

Throwing it to Zhang Liang a chess book, he said: "This is the chess book I wrote. If you have time, you can read it. It will be helpful for your chess skills to grow."

"Thank you for the reward of the young master." Zhang Liang understood that the road he was still far away.

The news of the ceremony of a courtesan fighting for hegemony on the sky has spread throughout the streets and alleys of the imperial capital. The nobles who claim to be romantic in the imperial capital have already begun to try it out.

The world of aristocrats is not just about cultivation, but also entertainment is essential.

Tonight, a courtesan competition will be held. At the foot of the mountain, many nobles and young men have already gathered, many of whom are the young generation with great influence in the imperial capital.

The Sky Upstairs is not within the imperial capital, but on a small hill near the imperial capital. The entire hill is the land of the Sky Upstairs. There is a large group of retro palaces on the mountain, which is where the Sky Upstairs is located.

Red beams and black tiles, red roof carved flowers, flashing lights, and crowded voices all show a sense of luxury!

If you look down from a high altitude, you will find that the sky tower is composed of three palace communities. Each palace complex has many magnificent ancient buildings, which are very gorgeous. They are separated from each other by streams to show the ancient charm and fragrance.

The palace closest to the foot of the mountain is called Tianxian Pavilion. This is the most popular palace and the most complex place. Many young men from small families can enter.

Above the Tianxian Pavilion is Tianyao Pavilion, which is only open to the great nobles. Those who can enter Tianyao Pavilion must have a very simple identity.

The luxurious pavilion sitting on the top is called Tianchi Pavilion. It is the most luxurious palace in the sky and the most thoughtful place to serve. It is said that there is a spiritual pool in the Tianchi Pavilion. The water in the spiritual pool contains rich spiritual energy, which is for the martial artists.

Practice is very beneficial.

Those who are qualified to enter Tianchi Pavilion must be distinguished guests on the skystairs, and even Mu Chen has never entered Tianchi Pavilion.

These are the three pavilions on the sky stairs. Each pavilion has a pavilion master, who is the signboard of the sky stairs and the goddess in the minds of most men in the imperial capital.

The owner of Tianxian Pavilion - Qingyi.

The Lord of Tianyao Pavilion - Riyao.

The owner of Tianchi Pavilion - Ruyu.

Although all the girls in the sky can participate in the competition for the throne, there are only one of these three who are truly qualified to be the throne.

Mu Chen and Tian Xue were walking at the foot of the mountain in the sky. The three women heard the most discussions.

At this time, Mu Chen and Tian Xue were walking in the garden around Tian Xian Pavilion. The Courtesan Competition had not been held yet, and Mu Chen was taking Tian Xue to enjoy the scenery.

"Husband, have you been here before? It seems that you are very familiar with it."

"I've been here a few times. In the past, many generals in the army were regular visitors here. I've been here with them a few times."

"Tianxue, as a fellow traveler, what do you think of the sky going upstairs?"

Tianxue recalled, "Husband, I spent two years in the sky before."

"Ah... Is there anything else? Why haven't I heard Su Su talk about it?"

"My husband should know that I am the daughter of a war slave. When I was very young, I became a slave and were traded everywhere. At about eight years old, I was sent to the sky by a slave to serve tea and water here.

I learned all kinds of dance skills and musical instruments, because when I was a child, I was handsome and the people in the slave office wanted to sell me at a high price, so I asked me to come over to do odd jobs and learn some talents to increase my value."

"Here, someone will bully you. If you still remember your name, you will make the decision for you."

"No... At that time, many **s served tea and water here. The sky was famous for its great reputation. No one dared to attack us. During the two years here, I felt very safe, at least I didn't have to be bought by others.

After that, the slaves sold me to a nobleman. When they were escorted, the palace lord saved me and made me become the lady's personal bodyguard."

When he said this, Tianxue's face was a little moved. Obviously, the years he had been upstairs in the sky were not happy.

As if he was remembering something, Tianxue whispered: "Husband, in fact, the mountain under our feet is hollow, and there is a lot of space below, which is a place to train the girl. I was once locked in it for half a month because of a mistake.

”

"I know this. In addition to the training base, there is also a large intelligence base in the mountain. Because the garrison is very tight, our people cannot infiltrate. The specific situation needs further investigation."

Tianxue pulled Mu Chen to the corner and whispered: "Husband, are you going to destroy the sky upstairs tonight? Then...what should those female girls do? There are many of them...all pitiful people."

"Don't worry, husband is not a bloodthirsty person. Today's purpose is to arrest people. I will not do anything to those irrelevant people, but will just capture them."

Mu Chen thought of something and said, "By the way, Tianxue, you have been here for two years, but if you have any friends, if you have someone you care about, remember to tell me that I can tell others not to hurt her."

Tianxue thought for a while and said, "My husband said that, I really have someone I miss quite. She... should still be alive."

"Oh, who is it?"

"Her name is Xiaofeng. In the sky, all the servants have no names. Only when they become girls can they be given names. Xiaofeng is her own name. I don't know what her name is now."

"Then... are there any specific characteristics? It's easier to identify?"

"Yes, there is a red mole at the corner of her left eye, which is very eye-catching and looks very beautiful."

"Red mole?" Mu Chen thoughtfully and took out a portrait. The woman in the portrait was very beautiful, with delicate facial features, slightly opened her mouth, and her eyes revealed a hint of holiness. The red mole at the corners of her eyes had a hint of charm.

A completely opposite temperament perfectly blends in her, adding her charm to her three points.

"The corners of my eyes... are a bit similar to Xiaofeng, and I look familiar with her... Is she Xiaofeng? Husband, who is she?"

Because nearly twenty years have passed, Tianxue dared not promise, it must be Xiaofeng.

"The Lord of Tianyao Pavilion - Riyao, is one of the targets of our plan."

"She is Riyao!" Tianxue was also a little shocked.

"Tianxue, do you want to see her?"

Tianxue nodded firmly.

Mu Chen no longer hesitated and pulled Tianxue to run upstairs.

Mu Chen showed his identity directly, so naturally many beautiful women would come to receive him. A female manager in exposed clothes smiled and said with apologies: "The prince is so arrogant, I am really in a position to welcome you. Please atone for your sins."

"I won't say much nonsense. I want to meet Miss Riyao."

"This...Miss Riyao is preparing for the back...I will not receive it now. I hope the prince will forgive me?"

Mu Chen didn't say anything nonsense, took out a purple gold card and said, "There are 100,000 purple gold coins on the card, and it's more than an hour before the courtesan competition. I only need half an hour to meet you, how about it?"

Seeing Zijinka, the female manager's eyes immediately shone, but hesitated and said, "Prince...this..."

Mu Chen took out another bag of corn and said, "You should know these...you should know them."

Because of Yao Ji's unrestrained goods, the name of corn has already spread in the imperial capital. Tian Shangtao is an intelligence agency, so of course they recognize this thing.

The female manager slapped her thigh and said, "Okay, I will take the prince there, but it's only half an hour!"

"Okay, lead the way."

Mu Chen gave her all the things in his hand and finally got the opportunity to meet Riyao.

Although Riyao is the head of Tianyao Pavilion, she still needs to show up on weekdays. Most of the nobles in the imperial capital, so there is an independent courtyard.

The female manager led Mu Chen and Tian Xue all the way through, and finally stopped in front of a small white building.

"Prince, this is the residence of Miss Riyao..."

"Okay, you go down first, I will go there by myself."
Chapter completed!
