Chapter 359
Although he has now become the Khan of the Western Turks, he can imagine that after his death, his son will not be able to inherit the position of Khan at all, just like he did back then.
Nishu felt that if he could dominate the grassland, with this honor, no one would dare to do anything to his descendants.
But Xue Yantuo was not so easy to destroy, he had to do it in advance, otherwise the unification of the grassland would not be completed in the remaining time.
……
The next day, Lin Xuan came to Da'an Palace with the finished chess.
Li Yuan picked up a chess piece, looked at the words on it, and murmured, "Rook?"
"This is chess?" Li Yuan asked.
Lin Xuan nodded and said, "Back to the Supreme Emperor, this is my creation based on Liu Bo's integration of the two armies' battles."
After traveling for so long, Lin Xuan is used to plagiarism, unlike before, he still feels embarrassed.
Li Yuan became interested when he heard that it was integrated into the battle between the two armies, and asked, "Tell me how to play this."
The game of chess is not difficult, after Lin Xuan explained it, Li Yuan memorized it.
"Okay, this little soldier is good. Give the military order and go forward bravely." Li Yuan heard that the little soldier can only move forward but not backward, and he can't move left or right until he crosses the river. He likes it very much.
Li Yuan said, "Let's play a game first."
Lin Xuan nodded, arranged the chess pieces, and said, "The Supreme Emperor, please go first."
"How can I take advantage of you, you go first." Li Yuan waved his hand.
Even though he saw chess for the first time, he knew that going first would give him an advantage.
Li Yuan has his own pride, how can he take advantage of Lin Xuan.
Lin Xuan smiled and didn't refuse. When getting along with this kind of old man, you have to follow along.
"The Supreme Emperor, I will jump first." Lin Xuan said.
Li Yuan thought for a while, and left the second soldier on the left.
Without even thinking about it, Lin Xuan took another step.
Although his level of chess is average, he still doesn't pay attention to a novice like Li Yuan.
Next, Lin Xuan ate several chess pieces from Li Yuan, and his heart was full of joy.
This is the founding emperor of the Tang Dynasty. He beat him in chess, and he will have the capital to brag about in the future.
"General!" Li Yuan moved the cannon forward and said calmly.
Lin Xuan looked at the chessboard and was dumbfounded. He had nowhere to go.
The form was good just now, why did he suddenly lose?
Li Yuan said lightly: "Didn't you say that this chess is integrated into the battle between the two armies? Then you should know that there are lures on the battlefield, and some chess pieces are not so delicious."
Lin Xuan's face turned red, was he being taught a lesson?
"What the Supreme Emperor taught me is that the minister was a little careless just now." Lin Xuan said.
He still doesn't believe it, he can't even beat a novice.
"Oh?" Li Yuan said with a half-smile, "Then we're going to play a game."
The two set up the chess pieces, and the second game began.
However, this round, Li Yuan was already familiar with it a lot, unlike the first round where he had to think for a long time, Lin Xuan lost faster.
"This chess is ever-changing, but it implies the art of war, not bad." Li Yuan praised.
Lin Xuan said: "Thank you, the Supreme Emperor, for your compliment."
"It's just that at your level, I can't believe it. You invented this chess." Li Yuan laughed.
Am I being mocked?Can you still have fun?
"Supreme Emperor, let's continue, the minister will definitely win." Lin Xuan gritted his teeth and said.
However, the ideal is beautiful, but the reality is cruel.
As the founding emperor of the country, Li Yuan's tactics of maneuvering were unmatched by Lin Xuan.
Although later generations mentioned Datang, many people first heard Li Shimin.
Li Yuan is not as well-known as the founding emperors of other dynasties.
But there is no easy way to win the world in troubled times.
"The Supreme Emperor, I can't afford to be a minister." Lin Xuan said a little depressed.
Li Yuan smiled, shook his head, and said, "I don't want to have sex with you either, it's boring."
It was the first time Lin Xuan discovered that Li Yuan's speech was so choking, there was no record of this thing in history.
"The Supreme Emperor, I will take my leave first." Lin Xuan cupped his hands and said.
He doesn't want to be here for a moment now.
……
On the way back, Lin Xuan was still a little depressed because he was abused by Li Yuan.
But back home, this feeling is gone, because Lin Ping is back.
Lin Xuan looked at the seven people in the hall and said with a smile, "Lin Ping, introduce me."
With these people, I can take revenge.
The Wang family has to pay a price.
Lin Ping pointed to a middle-aged man and said, "Master Hou, this is Zhang Daoquan, and behind him are his apprentice Zhang Dayong and his son Zhang You."
Zhang Daoquan led his disciples and son, cupped his hands and said, "I've seen Lord Hou."
Zhang Daoquan's information appeared in Lin Xuan's mind, and he said with a smile: "I have heard of Mr. Zhang's name. It is my honor that Mr. Zhang can come to help me."
Zhang Daoquan heard Lin Xuan's words, and said quickly: "I'm just a martial artist, so I can't deserve such praise from Lord Hou."
Lin Ping pointed to an old woman and said, "Master Hou, this is Guo Lanhua, and this is her granddaughter, Guo Caiyue."
Lin Xuan didn't expect Lin Ping to invite Guo Lanhua, but Guo Lanhua is 60 years old, and he doesn't know how much martial arts he has left.
On the contrary, Guo Caiyue is very beautiful, wearing a strong suit, showing a proud figure.
It's not that Lin Xuan has never seen a beautiful woman, but Guo Caiyue, who has been practicing martial arts all year round, has a heroic spirit on her body, which is very attractive.
In order to prevent people from treating him as a womanizer, Lin Xuan didn't dare to look at him too much.
"I've seen Guo Nvxia." Lin Xuan cupped his hands and said.
Guo Lanhua said indifferently: "Does Hou feel that old age is useless?"
"I've heard of Guo Nvxia's prestige back then, how dare I underestimate it." Lin Xuan said with a smile.
Lin Xuan didn't expect Guo Lanhua to notice it just after thinking about it for a moment.
At the end of the Sui Dynasty, the world was in chaos, and bandits and robbers broke out everywhere.
Guo Lanhua killed several gangs of bandits by himself, leaving a great reputation in the green forest.
Ordinarily, at her age, she would never seek refuge with Lin Xuan.
But the son and daughter-in-law died early, leaving only one daughter.
She didn't want Guo Caiyue to continue wandering around the world, so she brought her granddaughter here.
"Don't worry, Lord Hou. Although I am old and my martial arts are not as good as before, I still won't be able to earn a living." Guo Lanhua said lightly.
Lin Xuan smiled and said, "Nv Xia Guo misunderstood, I didn't mean that."
Guo Lanhua was noncommittal, it was useless to say anything now, and he would know later.
Lin Ping pointed to the remaining two strong men and said, "Master Hou, these are Cao Junwei and Cao Hu and his son."
When Cao Junwei was at the end of the Sui Dynasty, he was a bandit for a while, but he never did anything to ordinary people.
Later, when Li Yuan established the Great Tang Dynasty and the world gradually stabilized, Cao Junwei disbanded the cottage and lived in seclusion.
Among these people, Cao Junwei was the one Lin Xuan valued the most.
After exchanging pleasantries for a while, Lin Xuan said, "Everyone, if you are willing to join the Lin family, I, Lin Xuan, will naturally not treat you badly. Now I have something that I want you to help."
Zhang Daoquan, Guo Lanhua and Cao Junwei looked at each other, knowing that the investigation was coming.
They weren't unhappy, though.
Cao Junwei said in a low voice: "If you have any orders from Master Hou, just say it directly."
"I want to attack the Wang family, I wonder if you would dare?" Lin Xuan said.
Zhang Daoquan was a little shocked, and asked, "Which royal family is Hou Ye talking about?"
"Which royal family is there in the world?" Lin Xuan said lightly.
That's right, the Wang family in the world came out of Taiyuan, what other Wang family could there be?
Zhang Daoquan lost his voice: "Master Hou, do you think the few of us can deal with the Wang family?"
