Chapter 601 The Golden Mean
Tang Daoqing, a tycoon of the Southwest Military Region.
After the Chinese army restored its military rank system, Tang Daoqing was awarded the rank of general. He joined the army at the age of 86 and twelve, participated in the War of Resistance Against Japan, the War of Liberation, the Korean War, and the self-defense counterattack against Vietnam. From the day he joined the army, he was destined to be glorious for a lifetime.
The only famous big shots left in China have an average status? Before Ye Xiao decided to come to join the army for the birthday party of Anjing, this tiger girl, he found Changcheng to learn about Tang Daoqing. Of course, Tang Daoqing likes Go, calligraphy and shè beats, and before Tang Yi said that, he learned about Changcheng.
The old man seemed gentle, but from his wrinkled but angular face and his eyes that could see through him at a glance, Ye Xiao took a breath in his heart, not nervous? That's nonsense? The old man in front of him has experienced a real war, commanded thousands of horses and troops, planned and won thousands of miles away, said that he was a great general like Tang Daoqing.
However, Ye Xiao smiled and was shocked, no matter how shocked he was, he did not show it.
Old man Tang Daoqing sat on the sofa in front of the desk. A pot of tea was placed in front of the sofa. The strong fragrance of tea was floating in the study. Next to the teapot was a chessboard, and black and white chess pieces were scattered on the chessboard. After Tang Daoqing saw Ye Xiao coming in, he put down the chess pieces in his hand and raised his head.
"You are Ye Xiao?" Tang Daoqing said slowly, tepid.
"I am Ye Xiao, Grandpa Tang." Ye Xiao smiled slightly.
When Tang Daoqing heard the three words "Grandpa Tang", he frowned slightly, pointed to the sofa opposite and said, "Sit down."
Ye Xiao was not polite, and after saying thank you, he sat opposite Tang Daoqing, while Tang Yi sat on a separate sofa.
"Tang Yi, pour tea for Ye Xiao." After Ye Xiao sat down, Tang Daoqing ordered.
Tang Yi smiled, poured Ye Xiao a cup of tea, added another to his grandfather, and then poured a cup himself.
After taking a sip, the refreshing fragrance of tea spreads throughout the throat and nose. The so-called fragrance of chún teeth is nothing more than that.
"Tieguanyin, romance and fragrance." Ye Xiao nodded.
"Oh?" Tang Daoqing couldn't help but raise his head when he heard Ye Xiao taste the fragrance of tea. He looked at Ye Xiao at the right time and said, "Do you know tea?"
"My grandfather likes tea, so when he was a child, I followed my grandfather to learn something." Ye Xiao smiled faintly: "The method of making the Yunxiang Tieguanyin is to bake it for about ten hours on the basis of the original flavor method to have such a fragrant smell."
Tang Daoqing nodded and said nothing.
"Ye Xiao, can you play chess?" Tang Daoqing frowned and paused on the chessboard for a moment, and said.
"I know, I don't jing."
"Are you interested in accompanying me to have a plate?" Tang Daoqing said to Ye Xiao.
"Haha, since Grandpa Tang is interested, I will be ugly." Ye Xiao said with a smile.
Ye Xiao sat opposite Mr. Tang, setting up a chessboard and sitting upright. There were people outside the mountain. Although he had been playing chess since he was a child, he did not dare to underestimate Mr. Tang. After all, the old man has lived for so many years and has played chess for countless times longer than him.
Ye Xiao was the way to go. The ancients talked about "chess", and they did not distinguish between black and white. Those with higher proportions first, and those with lower proportions later. Nowadays, Go is black first and then white. Ye Xiao was also respectful to Mr. Tang.
Ye Xiao's start was very dull, with ordinary routines, casting wide nets, and not in a hurry to take the lead. Perhaps he was testing Mr. Tang's strength and playing steadily. Mr. Tang's idea was the same as Ye Xiao, the way of Go and the doctrine of the mean. The old man had already reached this age, and had experienced everything he should have experienced, and he had also experienced what he shouldn't have experienced. Naturally, the chess routine would not be as eager as young people, and the sword was a different approach, and it was the same as Ye Xiao.
As the grandson of Mr. Tang Daoqing, Tang Yi has been learning chess with Mr. Tang Daoqing since he was a child. Although Tang Yi was not as long as Mr. Tang and Ye Xiao, he was still ten years old. From the first move of the two, he frowned and stared at the chessboard without blinking, for fear of missing the moment when the two started fighting.
The start was dull, but the mid-market was not dull. Perhaps the test of the two people had ended and they finally started to work hard.
"Ye Xiao, do you know the highest level of playing chess?" Old Master Tang whispered after starting camping in the upper left corner.
"My grandfather said that the highest level of playing chess is that there is no chess in your hands or chess in your game, but there is chess everywhere in your heart." Ye Xiao ignored Mr. Tang's open construction of the plank road and secretly crossed Chen Cang, but continued to follow his entire game routine without any hesitation.
"Do you know what the ruling people admire most now?" Mr. Tang continued to ask. The two seemed to be playing chess, but they were more like old and young.
Ye Xiao shook his head.
After a few moves, Mr. Tang gently put down a chess piece in the lower right corner, and declared that Ye Xiao was wiped out in part and said lightly: "That's it."
"Respecting Confucianism, the doctrine of the mean?" Ye Xiao ignored the chess piece in the lower right corner that had become dead chess, and said tentatively. Mr. Tang continued to play chess happily, just laughing without saying a word. After a piece of despair, he continued to speak: "For so many years, I have always supported the youthfulness of cadres. Although the culture of China for thousands of years is its jing, history and the times have been moving forward. The Confucianism and the doctrine of the mean may have been applicable before, but now they have long been unsuitable. They have become doctrine of the mean, and they have become a stagnant pool, and the people have also become foolish people. I have always opposed it when I wanted to establish a sculpture of Confucius in the square some time ago."
Ye Xiao didn't understand these things, but just listened carefully and kept them silently in his heart.
"Grandpa Tang, everyone grows up through mistakes. I think the country is the same. Tolerate him to make small mistakes and avoid making big mistakes in the future." Ye Xiao thought for a while and said.
"Well, Tang Yi, Ye Xiao said this correctly. Playing chess is the same as being a human being and a country. Tolerate small mistakes and avoid making big mistakes." Old Mr. Tang's eyes flashed in his eyes, and his eyes looked at Ye Xiao were a little different.
"Grandpa said," Tang Yi said with a smile.
More than half an hour later, the game of Ye Xiao and Mr. Tang finally reached the final stage. Both of them showed their magical powers across the sea. The lurking chess pieces and traps slowly surfaced. Mr. Tang's open construction of the plank road and secretly crossed Chen Cang, and Ye Xiao's avoiding his edge and found another shortcut.
Tang Yi was excited to hear that he was very satisfied, but in Tang Yi's opinion, Ye Xiao had lost power in this game of chess and was suppressed by Mr. Tang from the middle game. Tang Yi poured tea while looking at Ye Xiao who was playing chess with his grandfather. There were very few people who could compete with his grandfather over the years. Tang Yi now understood that Ye Xiao was actually a Go master?
"Ye Xiao, don't admit defeat. You no longer have the power to turn the world around in this game." Seeing that the ending seemed to be destined, Mr. Tang said with a smile, his tone was much more kinder than the beginning. Tang Yi nodded in his heart.
"Grandpa Tang, my grandfather said that playing chess is the same as being a human being. It will be difficult to make a final conclusion until the last moment." Ye Xiao said unmovedly, then gently placed the ordinary piece in his hand that was exactly the same as all the black chess in his hand to the left of Tianyuan, and said with a smile: "Look."
"Ah!" Tang Yi exclaimed in a low voice, then shouted: "Good chess, wonderful chess." The situation where Ye Xiao had just lost completely changed in an instant, and a completely strong reversal completely made Mr. Tang's chess to death and had to abandon his son and surrender.
Mr. Tang was stunned and confused as he looked at the chessboard, talking to himself, and practicing on the chessboard. Ye Xiao Chongrong sat down calmly. After a few minutes, Mr. Tang almost gave up and put down the chess piece, raised his head, looked at Ye Xiao with appreciation and said, "I didn't expect that, I, the old man, was taught a lesson by you, today. It's good, good, and it's like a national player."
"Ye Xiao, are you as big as An Jing?" Old Master Tang Daoqing took a sip of tea. This was the first time he lost playing chess with such a junior. However, after experiencing the ups and downs of wind, his mood is naturally not comparable to that of ordinary people.
"I'm three months older than her." Ye Xiao said with a smile.
"Yes." Old Master Tang nodded and took a sip of tea.
Suddenly he looked at Ye Xiao and said, "Ye Xiao, what do you think of the current rule of China?"
Ye Xiao's face was calm and said, "Who achieved the victory of the war with the people at the beginning, and who is now fighting with the people?"
Tang Yi looked at Ye Xiao in amazement. How dare this guy say anything? Who is his grandfather? He, his grandson, has no clue. He finally won the favor of his grandfather because of Go, but said this sentence?
Tang Yi looked at grandpa gently with his expression.
After hearing Ye Xiao's words, Mr. Tang was stunned, and then his eyes slowly narrowed and stared at Ye Xiao. Tang Yi was worried, Ye Xiao was not surprised, his face was as normal. In the end, Mr. Tang stopped looking at Ye Xiao, and there was no other expression on his face. He looked at the time and said, "It's almost five o'clock, and the girl's birthday party is about to begin. Tang Yi, go down and greet him first. I want to talk to Ye Xiao."
Tang Yi looked at Ye Xiao in fear. He was a legend in the Chinese military and was extremely afraid of his grandfather. Tang Yi didn't know what grandfather wanted to talk to Ye Xiao, but what Ye Xiao said just now...
Tang Yi had a headache when he thought about it.
The Tang family's apartment covers a large area and is also very unique in layout. It has a spacious banquet hall and a quiet birthday party is held in the banquet hall.
At five o'clock, quietly walked downstairs to the banquet hall.
Today, she is wearing a blue dress, with fragrant shoulders and charming collarbones that make men all over the world crazy, with a perfect face, a high-rolled hair, and a slender neck like a swan.
The protagonist today appeared, and everyone present to congratulate him and applauded.
"How are you in southern Yunnan?" An Jing looked at everyone calmly, but her heart felt a little painful.
