Chapter 19: Dialogue with the Great General

Jiang Mansion is located in the northwest of Shengjing City and covers a large area.

"Master, His Royal Highness and the Crown Princess are only three miles away from the Jiang Mansion."

Someone quickly returned home to report.

Jiang Qian nodded slightly and stood up: "Send an order to the whole mansion. Everyone should go to the gate of the mansion to welcome the prince and the princess."

"yes!"

Soon the entire Jiang Mansion moved quickly. Hundreds of people from all over the Jiang Mansion all arrived in front of the mansion and lined up.

There are many powerful warriors among these people.

Jiang Gan is the general who controls the country. He can have a thousand private soldiers, but the number of Jiang Gan's private soldiers has never exceeded 300.

The emperor's trust is one thing, but whether he knows it or not is another.

"Your Majesty Jiang Qian, I respectfully welcome His Highness the Crown Prince."

"Welcome the Crown Princess."

It didn't take long for Xiao Fan and the others to arrive here. Qin Xuan and Jiang Yuli got off the sedan, and Jiang Gan bent down and saluted.

It is true that Jiang Yuli is his granddaughter, but after marrying Qin Xuan, Jiang Yuli is now the crown princess and has a respected status.

——In terms of rank, the Crown Princess is still a little lower than Jiang Qian. The official position of the Crown Princess is from the first rank, while Jiang Qian is the first rank general who governs the country.

"Welcome to His Majesty the Crown Prince."

"Welcome the Crown Princess."

Everyone else said in unison, including Jiang Yuli's parents.

"Grandpa, father, mother, what are you doing?"

Jiang Yuli was a little at a loss.

Qin Xuan bent down and returned the salute: "General Jiang, Qin Xuan is just a junior, you don't have to be so polite."

Jiang Gan smiled and said: "Your Highness, I am both an elder and a minister. I am your personal teacher to the Lord of Heaven and Earth, and you are before me."

"Your Highness, please!"

Qin Xuan said: "General Jiang, please."

Jiang Qian and Qin Xuan walked in front, Jiang Yuli walked with her parents, and everyone entered the Jiang Mansion in a lively manner.

Xiao Fan looked at Jiang Mansion curiously.

The style of the Jiang Mansion is somewhat different from that of the Prince's Mansion. It looks rough and majestic. The huge front yard can accommodate thousands of people for training.

There is also a large weapons rack on the edge of the front yard, which is full of various weapons, many of which are shining with cold light.

These weapons are not fakes, they are deadly weapons.

"Everyone, please have tea here."

Xiao Fan and many of his followers were led to a side hall, and soon the maids brought tea and various snacks.

"Everyone, there is no need to be restrained. Except for the backyard and some locked places, you can wander around the Jiang Mansion as you like."

"The lunch spot is over here, just remember it."

The steward of Jiang Mansion smiled.

Half an hour passed and Xiao Fan wandered around Jiang Mansion.

Jiang Yuli's voice rang in Xiao Fan's mind: "Mr. Xiao, find a secluded place with no one around."

Xiao Fan nodded slightly.

Not long after, Xiao Fan arrived at a deserted place.

A powerful force suddenly acted on Xiao Fan, and Xiao Fan's figure disappeared in an instant.

Soon Xiao Fan appeared in a courtyard in the Jiang Mansion. This courtyard was owned by Jiang Gan, and now only Jiang Gan was in the courtyard.

"The prince's attendant, Xiao Fan, pays homage to General Jiang."

Xiao Fan quickly bent down and saluted.

Jiang Qian frowned and looked at Xiao Fan. After a while, he said quietly: "Yu Li has already told me what happened."

"You cannot disobey the prince's order. I will not do anything to you."

"Come here."

Xiao Fan approached Jiang Gan, and Jiang Gan pointed to the stone bench in front of him: "Sit down, do you know how to play chess? I will play a game with you."

A person's personality will be reflected in the chess game. Jiang Gan likes to play chess and wants to understand Xiao Fan from this aspect.

"Playing chess?"

Xiao Fan said in surprise.

"No way?"

Jiang Gan frowned.

Xiao Fan shook his head: "That's not true, my level is not bad."

Jiang Gan raised his eyebrows and said, "You are quite confident. As long as you can hold on in my hands for a quarter of an hour, I won't have any objections about you and Yuli."

"If you can't bear it, you need to agree to a condition."

Xiao Fan said: "Mr. Jiang, what are the conditions?"

Jiang Qian said in a deep voice: "You are not talented enough, but you can still do it if you work hard to make your body stronger."

"After you lose, you need to take time to practice for half an hour every day."

Xiao Fan murmured in his heart that asking him to exercise was for Jiang Yuli's sexual happiness? Jiang Yuli is very happy.

Of course this cannot be said.

"Mr. Jiang, there's no problem."

Xiao Fan readily agreed.

Jiang Qian may be able to beat him with his superb chess skills, but Xiao Fan doesn't believe that he can beat him within a quarter of an hour. His chess skills are perfect as a master!

Having advanced chess skills does not necessarily mean you are great.

"You go first."

Jiang Gan took out the chessboard.

There are many kinds of chess in the Holy Spirit Continent. The current game is Othello, which has some similarities with Go in the previous life.

But it is more mysterious and more difficult to reach a high level.

The chess game may even contain the secrets of the formation.

"Xiao Fan, you can't be blind."

Jiang Gan frowned after half a minute passed.

Xiao Fan's moves were faster than him, and they seemed to be unorganized.

In terms of chess skills, Jiang Gan is a perfect master, and his level is still good, but there is a big gap between him and Xiao Fan, who is a perfect master.

"Mr. Jiang, I am sensible."

Xiao Fan smiled.

He has already judged Jiang Gan's level. He is a perfect master. Isn't it easy to beat Jiang Gan, who is only a perfect master?

Half an hour passed in the blink of an eye.

As Xiao Fan placed a chess piece, Jiang Gan was dumbfounded. He found that his good situation was reversed in an instant.

His chess pieces were eaten in large pieces.

Xiao Fan's seemingly casual moves were all connected!

After struggling for a few minutes, Jiang Gan shook his head helplessly.

"I lost this round."

"I underestimated you at the beginning. Let's play again!"

Jiang Gan said in a deep voice.

Xiao Fan smiled and said, "Old Jiang, then we play two out of three?"

Jiang Gan's face was slightly red. He didn't say that the victory or defeat would be decided in one round, but he was unwilling to give up. He didn't even last a quarter of an hour.

"Well, I'll listen to you, two out of three."

Jiang Gan said.

The two started again soon.

This time Jiang Gan was in high spirits. Every time he thought for a long time, he failed again in less than half an hour.

"Old Jiang, there's no need for the third round. I've already won two rounds."

Xiao Fan smiled.

Jiang Gan looked at Xiao Fan like a monster: "I heard from Yu Li that you are at the early stage of calligraphy master, and your chess skills seem to be even better."

Xiao Fan nodded.

"Old Jiang, I am indeed better at chess."

Jiang Gan took a deep breath: "I am not a person who does not keep his word. I don't care about your affairs with Yu Li."

"Originally, I wanted to remind you to be careful. Since you are a master of chess, I don't have to worry about this."

With a master-level chess skill, Xiao Fan can calculate dozens of steps for each move.

Reminding caution is completely redundant.

Xiao Fan stood up, bowed deeply and said: "Old Jiang, I will try my best to make the Crown Princess happy."

Jiang Gan nodded slightly.

"I hope Yu Li can be happy, but Yu Li is the Crown Princess, you can't have feelings, you have to grasp the degree in between!"

Xiao Fan muttered in his heart, the degree in between is not easy to grasp.

After all, love grows over time.
