The Reaper of Champions: Lü Qin's Path to Kings Chapter 4 Sword and Guts Heart

On the evening of August 7, 2002, the Guangdong and Vietnam chess match opened in Guangzhou Cultural Park, which was the first event of the Vietnamese team's visit to China, because Lu Qin's visit to the United States did not return, the Guangdong team lined up with Xu Yinchuan as the coach, supplemented by Zhuang Yuting, Zong Yongsheng, Huang Hailin's strongest lineup, although the sky was not beautiful, it rained, but the chess fans still played umbrellas and flocked to the center platform.

Backstage at the center desk, I met Lu Qin's wife, Xu Miaoling, and I knowingly asked, "Where is Lü Qin now?" Xiao Xu gestured with his hand and said, "In heaven." I asked again, "When did he arrive in Beijing?" "It's around 6 p.m. today." I jokingly said: "It takes more than 16 hours to fly back from the United States, and it takes 3 hours to fly back from Beijing to Guangzhou, and Lu Qin rushed back like this, is it to see chess or see you early?" Xiao Xu smiled and said, "To see chess." Then he added, "Definitely." When he said this, Xiao Xu looked like he was absolutely determined. Know Lu Qin, Miao Ling also.

In 1983, 14-year-old Xu Miaoling entered the Guangdong Provincial Chess Team, came from Shantou to Guangzhou, came to the picturesque Ersha Island, for Xiao Miaoling, entering the provincial team is like entering the sacred temple of chess art. There are two famous coaches yang guanxuan and Cai Furu in the team, as well as chess master Lü Qin and many other famous players, the seedlings are unearthed in time for the sun and rain, and Xiao Miaoling is eager to learn the knowledge she has never touched. But a long time is inevitable to miss home, especially on Sundays, the chess players who are home in Guangzhou all go back to spend Sundays, and the chess players from other places naturally come together, Lü Qin entered the team 4 years earlier than Xu Miaoling, so the master brother often takes care of the little master sister, and sometimes helps Xiao Xu to dismantle the chess, over time, they have a good feeling for each other, over time, Lü Qin's role is also slowly changing, from the master brother to a good friend, a flash of 4 years has passed, Xu Miaoling has become a chuchu moving big girl, dark hair, Fair skin, high nose bridge, plus a pair of black and large eyes, quiet and beautiful. Although there is no bright color like a delicate woman, it has its own fragrance like a german.

In 1988, Xu Miaoling was selected for the Guangdong team to compete in the national team lineup. After that, she felt frequent headaches and insomnia, and Xu Miaoling, who was born strong, vaguely felt that her body was difficult to adapt to this fiercely competitive sports, so she resolutely applied for withdrawal from the team. In 1989, Xu Miaoling retired from the team and returned to her hometown of Shantou, and the family also hoped that she could work in Shantou, which was a sudden upset for Lü Qin, and that pair of beautiful big eyes suddenly disappeared around him, And Lü Qin could not sleep for several nights, and he suddenly found that he could not leave her. Lü Qin once said to this writer: "I hold a pen like I am lifting weights." And at that time, the only thing Lü Qin could do was to spread out the letter paper and confide in the girl, but a letter was sent out, but it was as small as a yellow crane, until after writing the fourth letter, he looked forward to the first reply, this imbalance of income and expenditure forced Lü Qin to find another way, he remembered to call, the telecommunications industry at that time was not as developed as it is now, fortunately, there was a paging phone next to Xiao Xu's family, the endless telephone noise made the neighbors a little annoyed, Xiao Xu's mother was also disgusted at first, but later was touched by Lü Qin's persistence, later, With the help of the old team leader Rong Jianxing, Xu Miaoling returned to Guangzhou and came to work at Xinghua Pharmaceutical Factory.

It should be said that chess connects the hearts of two young people. In 1990, Lü Qin won the first World Championships, and Lü Qin, who was proud of the spring breeze, invited Xu Miaoling to accompany him home to see, Xiao Xu was reluctant at first, but he could not stand Lü Qin's rhetoric, or he was "coaxed" into the car. From Guangzhou to Huizhou more than two hundred kilometers away, by car all the way bumpy, in the car the girl is still thinking, although he has been two national champions and world chess kings, but the man looks black and thin, and is 7 years older than himself, the contradictory psychology has been torturing himself, to the village of the mayor of The Mountain, to the door of Lu Qin's house, the girl stood for a long time without moving footsteps, a simple bungalow plus a piece of land, not so much poverty as a bit desolate, although he is a born worker family, but after all, he is a girl who grew up in the city, It was indeed a little unexpected, but it was precisely at this moment that the girl's eye sockets were moist, and she seemed to see that under the kerosene lamp, Lu Qin's chess pieces made of tiles were fighting with people, it was this poor child, he had to pick the pearl in the crown of chess, he was a real man with lofty ambitions, wasn't this the partner he could support for life.

In 1991, a lover finally became a family member.

After two years of marriage, with a daughter Yingying, just on the tenth day after his wife gave birth, Lü Qin went to Beijing, as a representative of Guangdong Province, to participate in the Eighth National People's Congress, when his wife needed him the most, he could not stay with his wife, no way, Xu Miaoling only invited her mother to help, and later moved her sister-in-law to save the car, who let herself marry such a busy person, Lü Qin has been running east and west for many years, the southern conquest of the northern war, rarely at home, that is, at home, after training every day, he also feels very tired, once he enters the house, in addition to reading the newspaper, he is watching TV, Sometimes he also accompanied his daughter, and other household chores were too lazy to do, Xu Miaoling often said: "He is spoiled by me." "As a chess player," the wife can best understand the career that her husband is engaged in, which is a career that requires full dedication. She was not the kind of bird-like woman who supported him without dragging him down, and although Lu Qin had not even fried a dish since moving into her new home, she had never complained. Of course, there will sometimes be some small friction after a long time, but the "war" between the young couple is from overnight, and Xu Miaoling will say it out straight. And Lü Qin can always show the generosity of a brother, on the chessboard, Lü Qin, who never easily seeks peace, often plays a messenger of peace at home.

Lu Qin already has a habit, no matter where he goes to the north of the south sea, the first call when the plane lands is to report to his wife that he is safe. Xu Miaoling, on the other hand, calls Lu Qin every time she competes and finishes each round.

It was the first BGN World Chess Challenge, and the unprecedented high standard and high prize money naturally increased the psychological pressure of the participating chess players. In the first round of the final four battles, Lü Qin took the lead against Tao Hanming, the two of them did not enter the army five seven cannons against the screen horse to compete for the foundation, the layout of the layout of less than a few Lü Qin abandoned the double phase, thus competing for the superiority of many soldiers, in the carless chess fight Lü Qin plundered Tao Hanming's double soldiers, forming a horse artillery double soldier against the double cannon double elephant pawn, just when victory was in sight, Lü Qin's tight nerves suddenly loosened, and he was accidentally beaten by Tao Hanming's flat cannon commander, and quickly became a peace after coincidental exchange.

"The cooked duck flew". This will definitely affect Lü Qin's mood. At 3 p.m. the next day, Xu Miaoling picked up her daughter and took her to McDonald's. Since 4 o'clock, Xu Miaoling has been constantly playing on her mobile phone, she knows that the game is to be turned off, but she needs to know the result of the game in the first time. Until 6 o'clock in the afternoon, Lu Qin's mobile phone opened, when she learned that the second set was lost, she did not believe it at first, because Lü Qin had teased her, cheated her, won the chess, but said that she lost, from Lü Qin's tone she finally believed, she comforted Lü Qin that it did not matter, there were still a lot of opportunities in the future. After returning home, Xu Miaoling turned over and couldn't sleep until 11 o'clock at night, when she dialed Lu Qin's phone again... Some people say: "When you are accompanied by a heart, you can double what you are happy about, and you can reduce it by one-half when you encounter sad things." In Xu Miaoling's mind, Lu Qin will always be the best.
