Li Canghai hesitated, he saw the waist card in the strong man's hand before, it was clearly the royal waist card, so he followed them. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

But he thought about it for a long time along the way, but he never figured out who wanted to see him.

There are not many members of the royal family he knows, if it is Li Yu, Li Yu wants to see him, he can just call the ward, and there is no need for such trouble.

But who wants to see him but them?

If you can't figure it out, you naturally can't guess the other party's purpose.

However, Li Canghai has always been not afraid of life and death.

He hesitated slightly, then pushed the door open.

In the middle of the room was a table with a chessboard and a jug of wine.

Next to the table sat a noble man in a brocade robe.

This person is about forty years old, with slightly raised sword eyebrows and two long whiskers under his chin, giving people a sense of grace and luxury.

When Li Canghai came in, the man was twisting a black chess piece, staring at the chessboard and thinking.

"This gentleman, I don't know what happened when I shouted to the sea?" Li Canghai clasped his fists at the man and saluted.

The man stared at the chessboard and said to himself: "How do you play this game of chess to break the game?" ”

Li Canghai walked over, he glanced at the chessboard, and couldn't help but be shocked.

He could tell at a glance that this game was a dead game.

On the chessboard, the black son occupies the main star position, and no matter where the white child falls from, the result is inevitable death.

The man's brow furrowed, as if he was calculating what to do.

Half an hour later, the chess pieces in the man's hand still hadn't fallen.

Li Canghai frowned slightly, he didn't have so much time to play chess with a stranger here.

After thinking about it, he walked directly to the chessboard, hugged his fists at the man and said, "Sir, it's not difficult to break this game." ”

When the man heard this, his shoulders suddenly moved, he looked at Li Canghai in surprise, and said, "Can you crack this game?" ”

Li Canghai nodded, he looked at the chessboard, and said, "If Mr. believes in it, you can let it go." ”

The man looked at him carefully, and a hint of surprise suddenly appeared in his eyes.

The man pondered for a moment, then nodded.

Li Canghai arched his hand at the man, said offended, and then secretly used his internal strength, and slapped his palm at the chessboard.

With a bang, the chessboard was smashed to pieces.

The chess pieces on the chessboard have also turned into powder.

The man was taken aback, he stared, looked at Li Canghai in disbelief, and said in surprise: "What are you doing?" ”

Li Canghai clapped his palms and said calmly: "The chessboard is gone, and the dead game naturally no longer exists." As the saying goes, if you don't break it, you don't stand it, you can stand after you break it, and you can see the winner or loser between the trade-offs. ”

The man looked at him in surprise, then looked down at the shattered chessboard, and laughed involuntarily.

"Good, good, good!" The man shouted three times in a row, and said approvingly: "It is said that Lord Li is smart, and when I saw it today, it really deserved his reputation." ”

Li Canghai bowed slightly and said, "Mr. has a good reputation, but I don't know why Mr. came to Li?" ”

The man smiled, he asked Li Canghai to sit down, and then took the wine glass and poured a glass of wine for Li Canghai, and said, "Do you know who I am?" ”

Li Canghai said calmly: "If I am not mistaken, the identity of Mr. should be His Royal Highness the Crown Prince today!" ”

The man was slightly stunned and asked suspiciously, "How do you know?" ”

"In the first place, the token in the hand of the gentleman's attendant is a decree to enter and leave the court. Secondly, although Mr. was dressed in cloth, the jade dragon hairpin used to tie his hair was not removed. In the entire Tang Dynasty, there are only two people who are qualified to use this kind of jade dragon hairpin, one is the current saint, and the other is His Royal Highness the Prince. Li Canghai said.

When the man heard this, he reached out and touched the jade dragon hairpin on his head, and said with a smile: "Master Li really has good eyesight, and he can observe such subtleties so carefully." Yes, I am the current prince, Li Heng. ”

Li Canghai hurriedly knelt down in front of Li Heng and said, "Li Canghai has seen His Royal Highness the Prince, he has offended a lot, please punish the prince!" ”

Li Heng stroked his beard, smiled slightly, and said, "Lord Li, please get up." This chess game has troubled this king for a long time, and I don't want to be broken by Lord Li. Speaking of which, this king has to thank you. ”

"The lower officials don't dare. His Royal Highness the Prince, I don't know why you came to the next official this time? Li Canghai asked curiously.

He had just come to Chang'an, and the crown prince Li Heng had lived in the East Palace for a long time, because he had never seen it.

He really couldn't figure out what the intersection would be between himself and the prince.

"Master Li, please sit down and speak." Li Heng pointed to the stool opposite the round table and said.

Li Canghai hesitated, and then sat down opposite him.

"I heard that Master Li is not only good at reasoning and judging cases, but also at the art of war. When I saw it today, it really lived up to its name! Li Heng squinted his eyes and said.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has an overreputation, those are just rumors, and I can't believe it. If His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has any orders, even if he says it, as long as the officials do what they can, they will definitely go all out. Li Canghai said calmly.

"Good! This king is waiting for your words! Li Heng didn't seem to be planning to hide anything, he looked at Li Canghai and said solemnly: "Lord Li, this king asks you, what do you think of the Tang Dynasty now?" ”

Li Canghai glanced at him, and his brows suddenly furrowed.

After thinking for a while, Li Canghai said: "Today's Tang Dynasty is suffering from internal and external troubles. ”

Li Heng sighed and said, "Yes, internal and external troubles, it is true. The prosperous era of the Tang Dynasty is gone, but the father is unaware. As the crown prince of the dynasty, this king can only watch the traitorous ministers do the trouble, and there is nothing he can do, alas! ”

Li Canghai squinted slightly, and he heard the meaning of Li Heng's words.

He said quietly: "I don't know who the traitor in the mouth of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is?" ”

Li Heng didn't speak, but looked left and right, stretched out his right hand and dipped it in the wine, and wrote a word on the table.

Li Canghai stared at Li Heng's fingers and wrote a word 'wood' on the table, and then a word 'Yi'.

These two words are written separately, but they are one word.

'Wood' and 'Yi' together form a 'Yang' character.

Li Canghai stared at the word 'Yang', and a flash of inspiration suddenly flashed in his mind, and he instantly remembered the words on the ancient map in his mind.

"I see! That's what those words mean! Li Canghai stood up abruptly and muttered to himself excitedly.

Li Canghai's move immediately startled Li Heng.

He looked at Li Canghai in surprise and asked, "Master Li, what's wrong with you?" ”

Li Canghai sorted out his excitement, and saluted Li Heng: "The official just thought of something, and he was rude for a while, so I hope Your Highness will not blame you." (To be continued.) )
