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.
“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.
Ye Shaohua remembered, this was the sickly Crown Prince from the original text, who, in the end, attempted to rebel and was eliminated by the Third Prince and Bai Zhenzhen.
“My Lord Crown Prince, it’s the Lady from the Prime Minister Residence,” announced the eunuch beside him in a piercing voice.
Upon hearing this, the Crown Prince simply waved his hand, not even lifting his head, merely playing with the bird in the cage.
He had no interest in the famous Ye Shaohua of Imperial City.
Back at her place, Bai Zhenzhen was discontent for not having crushed Ye Shaohua under her feet.
“You said Tian Jizi took Ye Shaohua as his apprentice and left Imperial City?” Bai Zhenzhen’s fingernails were almost digging into her palm.
Bai Qianhu scoffed coldly, “This Tian Jizi really has no eye for talent, to think he did not teach someone as gifted as you!”
“No matter,” Bai Zhenzhen calmed down, “No need to bother about them.”
Did Ye Shaohua think she was only better at Go than her? If so, she was gravely mistaken.
Bai Zhenzhen, although she learned Go, was a modern person, and she did not intend to gain fame through Go; her most precious asset was her modern knowledge!
Any trivial thing from the modern age brought to ancient times would astonish these unenlightened ancients!
Ye Shaohua, if you think you can surpass me by following Tian Jizi, you are truly naive. Modern advancements and management that span hundreds of years, how could an ancient person compete?
Bai Zhenzhen was aware that she was merely the second daughter of a general, while Ye Shaohua’s father was the current Prime Minister, a man second only to the emperor.
So, to avenge her original self, she had to make herself stronger.

Utilizing her modern knowledge, Bai Zhenzhen opened a refined establishment called Fengya Tower. Its unique management style and cuisine, along with the introduction of many new spices, made the place an instant success.
She also knew that as a mere merchant, she could not contend with the Prime Minister Residence. The current crown prince was ineffective and without ambition; only the Third Prince had the bearing of a ruler of a nation.
Importantly, the Third Prince and the Prime Minister Residence were on the same side. If she could ensure the Third Prince became the emperor and kept his distance from the Prime Minister Residence, it would naturally lose its footing, and Ye Shaohua, who relied solely on the Prime Minister Residence, would also lose her support.
Having thought it through, Bai Zhenzhen, disguised as a man, went to seek cooperation with the Third Prince, who did not recognize the merchant before him as the fiancée he had abandoned.
“Take this to the Third Prince,” said Bai Zhenzhen, dressed as a man, as she sketched a gun on paper. She had only learned about Go in the modern era and seen guns on television, and gunpowder too, but no matter, this would be more than enough to astonish these people from the past, “As long as he still desires the throne, he will surely agree to work with us.”
Three years later.
Ye Shaohua, who was now in Jianghu, received a letter from Ye Huaijin, along with a dark object, and laughed, “A gun?” Not bad, Bai Zhenzhen, to even sketch this, even if its internal mechanisms are somewhat lacking.
“Miss, do I still have to copy the scriptures?” The maid at her side lamented. The valley master meant to punish the Miss, so why was she the one suffering?
Ye Shaohua snapped her folding fan closed, the ink-colored frame resting against her red lips, and she laughed lightly, “Good doggy, no need, we are leaving the valley today!”
“Miss, how many times have I said it, I’m Mo Hen, not a doggy!”
“I got it, doggy. Write a letter to my brother; we’re returning to the capital.”
What Bai Zhenzhen didn’t know was that Ye Shaohua was not just any ancient person, she was also a special agent, and although she had nowhere to use her hacker skills,
she could sketch out a gun with her eyes closed.
