Li Family Courtyard.

Li Qingyuan was a little annoyed. He let Shen escape this time. If he wanted to catch her again, it would no longer be a matter of words.

"You are still young and have not experienced much. It is inevitable that you will not think carefully. But the most important thing for you now is to keep calm and not to change many of the current affairs of the Li family. In addition, you must go to see Li Chengji. I will accompany you.

Go." Zi Yan said.

Li Qingyuan took a deep breath. Facing that man, he was indeed a bit cowardly.

"Okay, I'll go see him." Li Qingyuan lowered his head, thought for a while, and finally gritted his teeth and decided to go see him.

This level cannot be avoided after all.

"Let's go, go now, don't be sad for mother-in-law and mother-in-law. Be like a man and understand your current identity. You are now the new head of the Li family. This is an honor. If it comes with responsibility, with this identity, you cannot be weak.

."

Zi Yan grabbed Li Qingyuan's hand, pulled him and walked outside.

Zi Yan didn't let go until she got outside.

Li Qingyuan waved his wrist in confusion...

Suddenly there were several green handprints on his wrist.

"You are too weak. I only used a little strength to make the handprints. You have a body like Chai He, and you can't do it without more exercise." Zi Yan took two steps ahead and turned sideways.

He glanced at Li Qingyuan.

"Master Jiang... let's go."

Li Qingyuan screamed. He originally thought of saying that Ziyan, a woman, is too strong. But then he thought, this woman is so terrifying, as strong as a tiger. Who knows if this rouge tiger will retaliate for this?

Therefore, he changed his mind in time and decided not to mention the matter. He just rubbed his wrist while walking to relieve the pain.

All the way to Li Chengji's yard, Zi Yan, who had not spoken a word, stopped and said: "We're here, it's your turn."

"Come on." Anyway, he had already reached the door and it was impossible to go back. Li Qingyuan gritted his teeth and stepped forward to knock on the door.

The courtyard door is closed.

In the past, this place would not be what it is now. The courtyard door here is open all year round, and people come in and out from time to time.

The door is definitely not closed like this.

"Who?" came the question from inside.

"It's me, Li Qingyuan." Li Qingyuan responded.

Immediately, the door opened slowly.

This surprised the servants nearby. After all, during this period, almost everyone who came was blocked from the door, let alone Li Qingyuan.

To Li Chengji, Li Qingyuan was a traitor, a traitor who took away his father's position, and he should not be seen no matter what.

In fact, the results were beyond what others expected.

The person who opened the door was one of Li Chengji's personal guards. Li Qingyuan didn't know this person's name, but he only knew that everyone called him Uncle Huber.

"Boy, come in." Uncle Hu pressed his palm on the edge of the door, staring at Li Qingyuan with a pair of copper bell-like eyes.

Li Qingyuan took two steps forward and stepped into the door, while Zi Yan followed and took two steps behind.

Uncle Huber's body was blocked in front of Zi Yan, and he glared and said, "He can enter, but you can't."

"What if I have to go in?" Zi Yan raised her eyebrows slightly.

"Go through me first." Uncle Huber's voice was like a bell, with strong self-confidence. In terms of force, he believed that there were not many people in the world who were stronger than him.

But the next moment, his eyes blurred, and a strong wind rushed directly in front of him. At this moment, all the hairs on his body seemed to stand on end, his body twisted at an extremely fast speed, and he fell backward, a standard iron plate

bridge.

The wind howled past, and when he stood up again, he felt the thick blood slowly flowing down his face.

Just a small wound proved his defeat.

The young man standing in front of him still had empty hands, as if she had not drawn the sword at all just now, but in fact, she had clearly thrust out a sword just now.

"Everyone, come with me."

Uncle Huber stopped saying unnecessary words. If he loses, he loses. He is not the kind of person who grits his teeth and refuses to admit that he has lost.

There was no one else in the courtyard, only one chess player.

A big tree, the leaves have turned yellow, and there are many fallen leaves scattered on the ground.

Li Chengji, a chess player wearing commoners, sat under the tree and put the chess pieces into the jar one by one. The black and white pieces each took their place.

"Friend, please sit over there." Li Chengji nodded towards Zi Yan.

Then, he looked at Li Qingyuan again: "Qingyuan, come and accompany me in the next round."

Li Qingyuan walked over and sat on the other side of Li Chengji.

Zi Yan didn't speak, but sat quietly on a nearby stone bench.

"You hold the white piece, I hold the black piece. Play it carefully and don't hold back." Li Chengji picked up the black piece with two fingers and signaled.

This is how the chess game unfolded.

Li Qingyuan is proficient in eating, drinking, having fun, and how to play Go. His skills are not bad, because there is gambling in outside casinos. Winning can make money and gain face in front of everyone, so he has studied seriously for a period of time.

But after playing chess with Li Chengji, he felt Li Chengji's chess power after a while.

Li Chengji's technique is very grand. Basically, he does not take any deviant approach, but works step by step. Seeing how he sometimes makes out of nowhere, he can eventually connect it together and create an effect.

In this way, even though Li Qingyuan was good at chess, he still gradually fell into trouble.

However, Li Qingyuan was not willing to fail. He gritted his teeth, gave up a small piece, and began to specialize in a certain piece, jumping out of the dilemma created by Li Chengji, so that even if he lost in the end, the situation would look better.

It wasn't over yet. In the middle of the game, Li Chengji put down his chess pieces, looked at Li Qingyuan, and said calmly: "You surprise me. I didn't expect you to take this step."

"Do you know what happened to my mother back then?" Li Qingyuan gritted his teeth and asked this question.

"Adults only talk about victory and defeat, but children talk about right and wrong. So, what's the point of knowing whether I know or not?"

"If you were still a kid, you shouldn't have come today." Li Chengji said calmly.

"Okay, I won't talk about right or wrong, but now that I'm the head of the family, I want to avenge the past." Li Qingyuan stopped asking. As Li Chengji said, that was very childish behavior.

"Do you think you can become the head of the family without my acquiescence? The Li family is more complicated than you know. I can't tell you the specific reasons. I hope you can figure it out for yourself." Li Chengji said.

"I will figure it out myself." Li Qingyuan gritted his teeth and said.

"Go out and wait outside. I want to talk to this friend." Li Chengji said.

Li Qingyuan stood up and walked outside without saying another word.

When Li Qingyuan went out and Uncle Hub closed the courtyard door, Li Chengji turned his attention to Zi Yan who was sitting aside.

"Are you from the imperial court?" Li Chengji looked at Zi Yan with interest.
