Royal Gold Magistrate

The next day, when Fang Zhengyi rushed to the Meridian Gate and waited for the court, he found that Guo Tianyang was there, and he was looking at him with a smile.

Fangzheng greeted casually: "Good morning, Brother Guo!"

Guo Tianyang replied with a smile when he heard the words: "My good brother, good morning."

As usual, the ministers cast contemptuous glances, it really is a nest of snakes and rats, it is shameless to openly call brothers and sisters with eunuchs!

"???" Fang Zhengyi looked confused.

The dead eunuch took advantage of me! ?Why is this old man so enthusiastic today?

Guo Tianyang walked up to Fang Zhengyi with small steps and said, "Your brother came so early today, it looks like you've gotten used to it?"

"Not bad! Adapted, adapted."

Fangzheng laughed twice, unable to figure out Guo Tianyang's routine for a while.

After that, he started to go to court with a full stomach of doubts, but fortunately he got away with it again.

During the court meeting, this old man cast "ambiguous" eyes at Fang Zhengyi from time to time.

Fang Zhengyi felt his scalp tingling!I can't wait to castrate him again...

Suppressing the discomfort in his heart, Fangzheng came to Zhan Shi's mansion with ease and familiarity.

As soon as he entered it, he saw Li Yuanzhao sitting in the yard with his feet up, looking bored.

When Fangzheng came, he jumped up in surprise: "Old Fang! You're here!"

"Good morning, Your Highness." Fang Zhengyi greeted him relaxedly and cheerfully.

Now that Yan Guoan is gone, going to Zhan Shifu by himself is like going home!

"Old Fang, why don't you go with me to the Tiger and Leopard Garden in the East Palace? It was demolished by the emperor. You just want to help me think about how to build a new one?"

Fangzheng frowned, I treat you like a brother and you treat me like a horse!

If His Majesty finds out about this, he won't take my skin off! ?

Then hurriedly said: "What's the meaning of cats and dogs! Those are for children to play with, no matter how old he is, he is still a beast!"

"If your Highness is interested, go to the sea to fight beasts! I know that there is a monster in the sea named Godzilla, and its size is extremely huge! It can spit out...fire."

"It's just suitable for an all-around talent like His Highness who is comfortable with both words and martial arts to fight with!"

Li Yuanzhao glanced at him contemptuously and said, "Hehe, don't think that I'm a fool. I can't breathe in water, and there are monsters in the water that breathe fire. Is that reasonable?"

The child has grown up and can't be fooled anymore!

Fangzheng wiped off his cold sweat: "Hey, Your Highness is wise."

"Then how about this, let's play chess! The chessboard is like a battlefield, Your Highness is thinking of being a general! I can also see His Highness's demeanor by the way!"

Li Yuanzhao lacked interest and said: "Forget it, no one in the palace can play chess better than my palace, and there is no one-on-one opponent in go and chess...It's boring."

Fangzheng sneered and said, "Have you ever thought that your Highness is the one who let you go, and the subject is also proficient in chess, so if you don't agree, let's play a game!"

What is invincibility in the palace? The prince is playing chess with the eunuch?If you don't win, you will be a ghost. At this time, you have to use the aggressive method.

Sure enough, Li Yuanzhao became excited when he heard the words.

"Okay! What do you want to play? You can choose Go, Chess, or Chess! I'll let you see what I'm capable of!"

"No, no, no! Those ministers His Highness said don't know how to do it! I'll play backgammon with you!"

Fang Zhengyi really didn't know how to do it, and he didn't bother to learn those complicated chess rules. He only played backgammon in the county government office on weekdays. After a few years, he was definitely proficient.

Li Yuanzhao asked doubtfully, "What is backgammon?"

"Hey! It's very simple, just use the chess pieces on the Go board, the black side will play first, and whoever first connects the five chess pieces in a row will win!"

Li Yuanzhao said disappointedly: "Oh, what do I mean? It's boring to listen to, but since you are willing to leave the palace, I will accompany you!"

Hehe, young people, don't be too arrogant!

Fangzheng smiled and said, "Your Highness, don't underestimate this backgammon, I know it well."

"It's not interesting to play chess alone. It's fun only if you have a lot of money."

Li Yuanzhao became interested: "What kind of prize!?"

"If I win a game, Your Highness, I will memorize an article or copy a book. If I lose, I will give Your Highness 100 taels of silver, how about it?"

Li Yuanzhao exclaimed: "Okay, Lao Fang, it seems that your family really has too much money to spend, so bet!"

Fangzheng sneered: "Your Highness, please take care of yourself! I'm afraid that there are not enough books in the palace!"

Play as soon as you say, and the chessboard will be ready soon.

The two sat opposite each other, Fang Zhengyi looked relaxed, while Li Yuanzhao looked disdainful.

.................

Soon, the first game of chess in just a cup of tea was over.

Fangzheng looked at Li Yuanzhao triumphantly and said, "How about it, Your Highness!? You owe me an article."

Li Yuanzhao snorted coldly: "What are you proud of, I'm still getting used to it! Come again!"

Fangzheng shrugged, then come on.

This time Li Yuanzhao's expression became serious, he didn't make any rash decisions, and began to think carefully.

But after a while, the second set was lost again.

"Two articles!"

"Come again!"

"Three articles!"

"Come again!"

........

Fangzheng played with him one after another, Li Yuanzhao didn't win a game in a daze!

"25 articles!"

"Stop talking nonsense! Come again!"

Fangzheng watched Li Yuanzhao's reaction from below, and saw that Li Yuanzhao was concentrating on the chessboard, chanting words every time he made a move.

It can be seen that I am really trying to learn and absorb, and my attitude is extremely serious.

Fang Zhengyi couldn't help but be surprised. The prince is very admirable. Once he is immersed in something, he has the spirit of not hitting the wall and not looking back.

By the time of No.30 seven sets, Fang Zhengyi had already started to take it seriously.

Li Yuanzhao's expression was intoxicated, sometimes he smirked, and sometimes he gritted his teeth.

Fang Zhengyi also started to look serious, but suddenly there was a rush of footsteps next to his ears, disturbing his thoughts, and looking up, he seemed to see a few eunuchs running past in a hurry from the Moon Gate.

Just at this dazed effort, Li Yuanzhao slammed his hand down.

Four white pieces form a row, and there are no black pieces at both ends, it is already a game of death!

Fang Zheng glanced at the direction of the Moon Gate, feeling a little unusual in his heart.

Suddenly, he saw a figure in a yellow shirt faintly appearing through the branches, and quickly lowered his head to look at the chessboard.

Cold sweat can also come down at any time... Your Majesty has come...

Depend on!Will it make him see that I am playing backgammon with the prince? !

Although His Majesty asked him to teach the prince some new things, it doesn't include bullshit!

While Fangzheng was thinking about it, Li Yuanzhao urged: "Old Fang! Get off now! Get down quickly! I'm going to win! What else are you thinking about!"

While he was speaking, Fang Zhengyi caught sight of the figure behind the branches getting closer from the corner of his eye.

Seeing that he didn't respond, Li Yuanzhao urged, "Old Fang! Do you want to blame me! I have already won this game!"

Fangzheng was thinking of countermeasures in his heart, when he suddenly had an idea!

He raised his hand and overturned the chessboard, the chess pieces were flying all over the sky, and shouted: "Draw!"

Li Yuanzhao didn't expect Fang Zhengyi to be able to do him such a trick. He opened his mouth and said angrily, "Old Fang! You can't afford it! I won't recite that article either!"

Fangzheng said in a deep voice, "Your Highness! This is also one of the ways of backgammon!"

"Your Highness is the crown prince, and the world is His Highness's chessboard. If the chess game has come to an end, will His Highness continue to play chess?"

"At this time, Your Highness should have the courage to overturn the chessboard! The so-called no break, no stand! If you don't have the spirit to fight to the death, then you will really lose!"

"This is the truth that I want to pass on to His Highness. Does Your Highness understand...cough cough...cough!"

Li Yuanzhao didn't listen to baring his teeth and rushed to grab Fang Zhengyi, but Fang Zhengyi dodged him.

Afterwards, Fang Zhengyi continued: "Your Highness, the ruler is the one who sets the rules for the world! How can you be limited by the rules!"

"This is what I want to tell you! Well, let's end today's class here, elbow! Go eat!"

Li Yuanzhao grabbed Fang Zhengyi's sleeve, and said angrily, "Don't think about it! I have memorized every chess piece I played just now, and I want to replay it!"

Fangzheng patted Li Yuanzhao's hand off expressionlessly: "Your Highness, you lost 36 rounds just now, so this round will be regarded as a loss for you. How about you memorize 35 articles?"

Li Yuanzhao insisted: "No! You are cheating! Have another game!"

Fang Zhengyi continued: "Then, I will write a zero for you and memorize [-] chapters! This will work for the head office... Winning one round is better than six rounds! Your Highness has earned it."

Li Yuanzhao said slowly: "Then... okay, okay! Next time you can't play tricks."

After Fangzheng glanced at the branches from the corner of his eye, he was relieved when he saw Huang Shan's figure leave his heart.

"Your Highness, I'm not playing tricks! This is how backgammon is played. This move is called Tiannv Scattering Flowers. I also have a move of firing ten thousand arrows. If you don't believe me, you can try again!"

"Stop playing, stop playing! Let you say everything and play ass! Go eat, I'm hungry!"

.......................

outside the moon gate.

Just as Emperor Jing slowly walked out of the courtyard, he said to Guo Tianyang, "This Fangzheng can come up with some new tricks for me every time, which really surprises people."

"The education method is also different, which impresses me deeply... good."

Guo Tianyang also smiled and said: "Yes, Your Majesty, this old servant is also very impressed, and the crown prince has also willingly endorsed it."

Emperor Jing laughed twice: "It seems that Fang Zhengyi does have a solution, but..."

Speaking of this, Emperor Jing's face turned cold: "But that Nizi is so stubborn that he can't listen to a word. I think he is itchy. I will call him to the Imperial Study Room at night. I will take good care of him!"
