Chapter 22: 021 Prime Minister Residence’s number one talented lady (3)

Everyone present, aside from Bai Qianhu, had a fair understanding of chess.

Ye Huaijin’s group of scholars had all but held their breath during the contest between Ye Shaohua and Bai Zhenzhen, especially at that move Ye Shaohua played when faced with certain defeat, turning the tide from a hopeless situation with such decisiveness, that all eyes looked upon her with awe.

Seated at her station, Bai Zhenzhen was dumbfounded. How could this be possible? Isn’t this game supposed to be unsolvable until hundreds of years later in the modern era?

The more Bai Zhenzhen thought about it, the more impossible it seemed. Could it be that Ye Shaohua stumbled upon the solution by sheer fluke? It seemed that could be the only explanation.

For her to admit that a culture spanning five thousand years was inferior to that of an ancient person, her pride as a modern individual wouldn’t allow it. _{ƒгeewebnovёl.com}

“I admit defeat to Lady Bai’s rendition of ‘Poem Water Tune Song Head,'” Ye Shaohua rose to her feet, brushing her sleeve, “Lady Bai is right, the title of a talented woman is something I don’t deserve.”

She glanced at the chessboard, then, with a sigh, added, “So be it.”

Seemingly catching Ye Shaohua’s gesture, Ye Huaijin and many other scholars focused their eyes: “Wait!”

However, they were too late; with a sweep of her hand, Ye Shaohua destroyed the lost-world chess arrangement on the table in one move.

Then, she gracefully took her leave. By the time the emperor and others arrived, they saw several chess enthusiasts frantically trying to restore the previous game.

Bai Zhenzhen was still standing there, growing more and more convinced of the impossibility, then she picked up the chess pieces and laid out another unsolvable arrangement, “That’s right, this is how it should be, correct!”

Onlookers watched as she quickly set up another enigma. Such games would be beyond the reach of most in their lifetimes, it was as if Bai Zhenzhen could create them effortlessly.

This game, unsolvable even in modern times, was a dead end by itself, played by a genius young girl from the international Go circuit.

It sent shockwaves through the entire Go community; the prodigious young girl was considered the most likely to solve it, but since she died, it remained a true enigma.

Bai Zhenzhen couldn’t believe Ye Shaohua could solve the game that even Tian Jizi couldn’t decipher.

Gradually, she convinced herself: “This arrangement is the right one, I don’t believe Miss Ye could solve it!”

The surrounding scholars and the newly arrived emperor and his entourage were outright dumbfounded.

After learning that Ye Shaohua had solved the game, Tian Jizi immediately followed her as she left.

The emperor softly suggested to Tian Jizi to take Ye Shaohua as his apprentice and stay in Imperial City, but Tian Jizi refused.

Suddenly, Bai Zhenzhen was unrivaled in the spotlight, and although it wasn’t the same as in her previous life where she trampled Ye Shaohua into the mud, her reputation was certainly established.

The Third Prince looked at her, filled with a sense of loss.

Ye Shaohua was on her way out of the Prime Minister Residence, followed closely by a personal maid.

Unexpectedly, while walking through the corridor, she encountered a figure in a bright yellow attire.

“His Royal Highness, the Crown Prince!” Ye Shaohua’s maid immediately bowed deeply.
