Stand-in eunuch: I pamper the harem for the emperor

Chapter 885 Abandoning the Horse and Flying the Knife
"Brother Prince, what are you talking about?"

The seventh princess was extremely shy, but she was obviously interested in Lu Hao.

"Of course Mr. Lu wrote this poem for Miss Su. Is he worried that Miss Su would become jealous and please her?"

Qin Zhixuan interrupted loudly.

That's it!

Everyone looked at Su Yifei and suddenly realized.

Zhou Jiapeng was stunned for a moment. He was a little embarrassed at first. Then he thought about it and laughed happily: "Brother Lu is able to compose poems for Miss Su. I am really envious of others!"

"There are rumors that my prince likes Miss Su, but they are completely false. Since she is now Brother Lu's fiancée, my prince congratulates you for your happy marriage and your son!"

His Highness the Crown Prince's words were undoubtedly announcing to everyone that he was withdrawing from this competition and that Concubine Su Yifei would be owned by Lu Hao from now on.

When the seventh princess heard that Lu Hao had written a poem for Su Yifei, her face looked slightly melancholy, and her heart was filled with an incomparable loss, as if she had lost something precious.

"Why give birth to a son so early? He's not even married yet?"

Su Yifei blushed with embarrassment.

When the seventh princess heard what she said, she couldn't help but feel hopeful.

As a precious princess, she is naturally stronger than a merchant's daughter, so she is confident that she can snatch Lu Hao away.

Qin Zhixuan looked at the changes in the eyes of the seventh princess and seemed to understand something. She suddenly felt like shooting herself in the foot.

Originally, they were looking for the prince and princess to stir things up, but unexpectedly, the two of them changed so quickly.

What's even more incredible is that His Highness the Crown Prince actually handed over Su Yifei without any complaints, and even announced in public that he and Lu Hao had become good brothers.

Judging from the way he talked about Brother Lu, His Royal Highness was completely impressed by Lu Hao.

When Lu Hao saw His Highness the Crown Prince being so polite, he quickly said, "Thank you so much for your love, Your Highness the Crown Prince!"

"Hahaha... You're welcome, my brother! I will definitely prepare a generous gift and send it to my house when the time comes."

Zhou Jiapengle laughed.

Since Lu Hao appeared on the scene, he immediately eclipsed all the talents, which naturally aroused everyone's dissatisfaction.

"Master Lu is very talented. He can't write poetry, but he can play chess. I don't know that Master Lu is not interested. How many games should we play?"

Suddenly, a young man stood up.

This person's name is Duan Yizhi, and he is the top chess player in Haojing City and even the entire Great Zhou Dynasty. He has never been defeated.

When everyone heard that he came out to challenge, their confidence suddenly increased, feeling that Lu Hao might be embarrassed this time.

"To tell you the truth, I don't like Go. I only understand it a little bit, so I won't show off my shame."

Lu Hao said modestly again.

"Go? What is Go? We only have chess here!"

Duan Yizhi asked curiously.

"What? You only have chess here?"

Lu Hao was also surprised.

If it's chess, he's not afraid of these guys, but when it comes to Go, he's really only half-full, and he'll definitely be defeated by a real master.

"Yes, we only have this kind of chess here!"

Duan Yizhi said, pointing to the chessboard on the table.

Lu Hao took a closer look and immediately felt relieved and said, "Since it's chess, let's play a game."

When they heard that the two of them were going to play chess, the Qin family immediately opened up a specially made large map that looked like a screen in the middle, with a large chess board on top.

As long as they show it on the chessboard after they play, everyone can see it clearly, preventing everyone from crowding together and affecting the game between the two.

In order to avoid being disturbed by others, the Qin family specially sent them to the pavilion next to the middle bridge and placed a chessboard.

"Master Lu, we'll win two out of three games. You go first!"

Duan Yizhi gave way humbly.

"No, you should make the first move."

Lu Hao smiled calmly.

In chess, apart from being defeated by the chess elf, I have never lost. Am I still afraid of you?

"Since Mr. Lu is so humble, I will take the first step." Duan Yizhi didn't mean to be polite at all.

I saw him directly raising the cannon with murderous intent, preparing to penetrate Lu Hao's central axis.

The enemy is strong, let him be strong, the breeze blows on the hills!
Lu Hao responded calmly, vaulting the horse to protect the pawn, which was quite satisfactory and without any disturbance.

"Master Duan, two cannons equal five!"

"Master Lu, the horse is eight into seven!"

On the large chessboard erected outside, the servants were showing the game between the two on the big map.

Everyone watched it with great interest.

Lu Hao was not in a hurry to attack, but put on a defensive posture, which made everyone shake their heads.

"Master Lu, it seems that your chess skills are not very good. Why do some people say that you are proficient in all kinds of music, chess, calligraphy and painting?"

Duan Yizhi's words were somewhat sarcastic.

"That's all rumors, but Mr. Duan, be careful! I'm going to kill you!"

Lu Hao smiled calmly.

"Master Lu, just let your horse come over."

Duan Yizhi is full of confidence.

"If that's the case, then you should try my Abandoned Horse Flying Knife first!"

After Lu Hao finished speaking, he didn't care about his side horse at all, and charged towards the seven-way elephant mouth.

"Abandoning Horses and Flying Knives? That's a good name. Since you don't want this horse, then I'll eat it!"

Duan Yizhi was too greedy for petty gains and thought that the side horses could take advantage of him.

However, he didn't know at all that it was a specially set trap.

Chess, an ancient civilization with thousands of years of history, has countless endgames and countless unique skills.

Lu Hao knows at least a dozen different flying knife killing moves, not to mention countless strange moves such as thunder cannons, heavy cannons, river patrol cannons, overlord carts, and carbine guns.

The seven-way elephant mouth was shot down by Lu Hao because the cannon in the middle hall was mounted. The cannon sank to the bottom, and he pushed the car up to the general position.

Because Duan Yizhi took advantage of a small side horse, the bottom line defense finally collapsed and he had to give up his opponent to fill the gap.

It's a pity that Lu Hao didn't give him a chance at all, strangled him continuously, and finally reached Lao Wang.

"When Master Lu first started, he was obviously clumsy and had no intention of attacking. Unexpectedly, Master Duan was killed in the blink of an eye."

"Young Master Lu kept his secrets secret. This move of abandoning the horse and flying the knife was too subtle. It took full advantage of Young Master Duan's greed for petty gains and completely brought him down."

"Yes, if he doesn't take the horse and returns to defense first, there may be a chance to turn defeat into victory."

"..."

People outside were talking a lot, and they were obviously a little regretful.

"General!"

Lu Hao ate two of Mr. Duan's chess pieces and continued to sink the general.

Duan Yizhi was now sweating profusely and his face was gloomy, as if someone had stabbed him in the chrysanthemum.

"General!"

Lu Hao entered the car again to check the general.

"I... I lost!"

Half a month later, Duan Yizhi came up with a few words.

In fact, anyone with a discerning eye can see that he has been defeated and has no way to recover. He just struggled a few more steps.

"Come again!"

Duan Yizhi started arranging the dishes again.

"Master Duan, there are thirteen moves in total to abandon the horse and fly the knife. I only used one move. You are not my opponent. Is there any more powerful chess player?"

Lu Hao asked with a smile.
