Chapter 107: Liu Zhongfu

Back in the Northern Song Dynasty, Yun Yi felt much more refreshed, and the symptoms of chest tightness and asthma disappeared instantly.

"It seems that it's better to go back less in the future, otherwise it would be a pity if you die suddenly one day."

After patting his chest twice, Yun Yi smiled bitterly.

In the front yard, Qiu Niang's cooking sound came, and the fragrance of cumin fried lamb made him salivate.

I haven't eaten for a busy day, so I'm really hungry.

After taking a look at the pile of goods in the room, Yun Yi came to the closet and took out a walkie-talkie from the drawer.

"Manqing, it's me, can I receive it?"

I turned my head and looked at the sky. The sun had just settling, and there were layers of red light in the distance.

After waiting for almost a dozen breaths, Ni Manqing responded happily with a walkie-talkie.

Yun Yi withdrew his gaze and said with a smile: "After an hour, I will send someone to pick up the goods, or go to the backyard."

"Okay, Yunlang... can I get over too?"

Yun Yi was stunned when he heard this. Didn’t you just come in the morning? However, savoring the shy affection in the girl’s words, Yun Yi nodded gently and pressed the call button: “Come here together, just after dinner, go for a walk together.”

The opposite side was silent for a while, and then a little excited voice came from Ni Manqing: "Okay, then wait for me!"

Yun Yi smiled and put the walkie-talkie back into the drawer.

When I arrived at the front yard, Qiuniang had already cooked two dishes and lived in a pot of noodles.

The so-called noodle slices are similar to cut noodles with knife. Qiu Niang's skills are very good. The mutton in the cumin fried mutton is cut thinly and directly mixed with the noodle slices. This is the classic cumin mutton cap and poured noodles.

Another one is braised Yellow River carp, which only has the middle fish section. The Yellow River carp is very big. After buying a whole, they couldn't finish it at all, so they both bought pork and mutton, just bought one of the pieces with fat meat.

With the seasonings brought by Yun Yi, the braised carp tasted bad. While Yun Yi was eating with relish, he also taught the little girl a trick, "Next time to cook fish, you can add some meat to it, and the taste will be better."

The little girl squatted by the stone table and ate with her mouth full of oil. When she heard this, she kept nodding. Her two double buns were shaking, and her small head was like a kick ball, very cute.

About an hour, Ni Manqing arrived as promised.

"Good evening, Mr. Yun."

"Good evening, Uncle Wei."

Ni Manqing and Manager Wei said, "Uncle Wei, you can send the things to Qingyun Club first. I have something to talk to Mr. Yun."

Manager Wei glanced at Yun Yi, nodded with a smile, and walked straight to the backyard of Taohua House.

Yun Yi watched him disappear on the porch and was about to ask Ni Manqing where to go for a walk.

Suddenly a scent of fragrance came to his face, hugging him, the girl's cheeks pressed against his chest, and a refreshing smell lingered in her breath.

"Manqing?"

Yun Yi patted her shoulders and felt her shoulders trembling slightly.

Ni Manqing sobbed twice with a choked voice, looked up at Yun Yi, and said resentfully: "Where have you been today? Why don't you reply to my voice transmission? I'm so worried."

Yun Yi was stunned and remembered that he had only told Qiu Niang that he wanted to rest for a day in the house and told her not to disturb her, but forgot that Ni Manqing was still waiting for her news.

He was also blamed. In a hurry, he was busy for a day in "over there", selling gold and contracting the farm...

After thinking about it, Yun Yi rubbed her head with distress and said with a hilarious look: "Where am I going, don't you know?"

Yun Yi thrust his mouth to the backyard.

When Ni Manqing heard this, she wrinkled her nose first, then she fell on his chest aggrievedly and said with ease: "Next time you have to say in advance, I'm almost scared to death by you. I thought something had happened to you, and I wanted to come to find you, but I was afraid..."

"What are you afraid of?" Yun Yi said hilariously.

Ni Manqing blushed and whispered to his chest with anger, muttering in a low voice: "I've only been here once in the morning, and all the neighbors saw it. What do you think I'm afraid of?"

Yun Yi laughed: "Silly girl, what's there to be afraid of for a legitimate thing?"

"You, huh... I won't tell you anymore. It's not too late to talk to you when you arrive at my house to propose marriage." Ni Manqing wanted to bite Yun Yi for a few bites. He didn't understand his daughter's thoughts. He was simply a elm-head!

"Oh, by the way, I forgot to tell you something."

"What's the matter?"

Ni Manqing took a step back, and asked curiously in her eyes: "Do you know Liu Zhongfu, a Hanlin Academy chess assistant?"

Yun Yi frowned slightly: "Who did you say?"

Seeing this, Ni Manqing responded word by word: "National player Liu Zhongfu."

The chess saint of the Song Dynasty, Yun Yi took a deep breath. During the period when he was studying Go, he learned almost all the people related to Go. Liu Zhongfu was a great master who had been continuing the past. How could he not know?

But if you want to know, you really don’t know.

So, after taking a deep breath, he shook his head calmly: "Why, why did you mention him?"

Ni Manqing sighed slightly and smiled bitterly: "Uncle Liu is my father's close friend. He has been living in Qiantang before and is focused on studying chess. I once learned how to manage it for a while, and it was then that I had the hobby of collecting chessboards."

Yun Yi nodded. Ni Manqing liked to collect chessboards. He knew that, but he didn't know that it was related to Liu Zhongfu, a national player.

Ni Manqing continued: "In less than three months, it will be the Three Kingdoms Conference in Song, Liao and Western Xia. Three years ago, Uncle Liu lost to Liao chess player Gu Qinghe. This person was after Gu Shiyan, a late Tang chess saint, and it was not unfair to lose to him, but Uncle Liu could not overcome this hurdle..."

"This time, Gu Qinghe will represent the Liao Kingdom in the Three Kingdoms, but I, the Song Dynasty, don't seem to want to send Uncle Liu to fight, but plan to change someone else."

Speaking of this, Ni Manqing showed an admiring look and reached out to touch Yun Yi's Gangyi's cheek: "Uncle Liu said that the court plans to send you to fight, so he wants to challenge you."

Yun Yi was stunned when he heard this and said in confusion: "Why don't I know if I send me to fight?"

Ni Manqing also shook his head and expressed his confusion, saying, "This is what Uncle Liu told me. He said that the notification from the Hanlin Academy this morning was only given to him. It seemed that it was related to Mr. Nangong, and he had no idea about the specifics, so he wanted to ask you."

"I see."

Yun Yi frowned slightly, remembering the conversation he had with Mi Fu last night. At that time, Mi Fu seemed to have mentioned something about the competition. He didn't remember that he had drunk too much, but he just vaguely remembered that he seemed to have been tricked by an old guy.

When I recalled this time, I couldn't help but smile bitterly, "You Minangong, I admire you so much, you actually made a trap for me."

"Yun Lang, do you really want to fight Gu Qinghe on behalf of the Song Dynasty?" Ni Manqing hugged Yun Yi with some concern.

Yun Yi raised his eyebrows, felt the strong concern in the girl's words, and said with a smile: "Are you afraid I will lose to him?"

Ni Manqing shook her head, and the golden hairpin on her head shook left and right, "I believe you will definitely win, but it will be more important than the matter. I am afraid that you will be in danger. The Liao people are insidious and cunning, and they are used to using some tricks. Uncle Liu's left hand was cut off by the Liao people."
