Walking out of the second mistress's yard, Baoyu (Ran Xiaoshi) tilted his head and looked up at the clear blue sky at a 45-degree angle. He saw that the sun in the capital was extremely hot and dazzling in early summer.
"Spring in Beijing is as short as shorts..."
Under the careful care of the little maid he "touched", Mingyan has begun to move around on her own, but she can't leave the little maid for a moment. No need to guess, this guy must have done it on purpose, his hands have never been
I have never left the little maid's white and tender hands. She is really a person who "emphasizes sex over friends"!
Well, I am also a guy who values sex over friends. Until now, I just thought of visiting my two "old friends" Nalan Xingde and Li Guangdi. However, Li Guangdi is the prefect of Yangzhou in the south of the Yangtze River, and I don't know what will happen.
However, Nalan Xingde has now become the fourth-rank Honglu Temple Shaoqing Shaoqing. Such an official is a leisurely official with a bright future.
Recently I heard that he has done a good job in writing articles, and it seems that he really has a lot of time.
The four children, carrying the hoe medicine, Sweeping Red, Mo Yu, and Yin Quan, walked out of the house and walked towards the largest gambling house in the West City, "Tianxiang Gambling House". All they saw along the way were scenes of warblers and swallows. What a wonderful scene.
The prosperous capital city.
Tianxiang Gambling House is one mile north of Xizhimen, occupying half of the alley.
Baoyu (Ran Xiaoshi) stood in front of the gate of Tianxiang Gambling House, looking at the big golden characters. Baoyu (Ran Xiaoshi) suddenly thought of one of his brothers and comrades in later generations. He was in debt because of his obsession with gambling.
suicidal.
Because of this, I found ten gambling masters and six magicians to learn from me and developed a gambling skill.
When I walked into Tianxiang Casino, no one knew Baoyu, which was good.
There are more than thirty gambling tables on the ground floor, all of which are shaking dice. The sound of clattering and the noise of people are intertwined, which is more attractive to many men than the most enchanting women.
A boy from the gambling house had already come over to say hello.
"Five gentlemen, please come inside or upstairs!" Upstairs is the VIP room.
Without having to say anything, the waiter from the gambling house, who had developed a sharp eye in daily life, knew at a glance that this young man was either rich or noble.
Baoyu (Ran Xiaoshi) ignored the boy who came to wait on him, and walked straight to an old man with a white beard who was still wearing a big fur cloak. He cupped his hands, then bowed down and said politely: "Young man, I have seen you.
"Master."
"Go, go, go...where did you come from...interrupting my prince's sexual intercourse, I'll be careful to pluck out your eyes and stomp on them..." This is the old Beijing dialect of old Beijingers. There is really something
A fiery domineering spirit.
I bowed down and bowed politely again, not to mention anything else, just because this old prince has a grandson who can write such a magnificent masterpiece as "A Dream of Red Mansions", it is enough for me to give him any kind of gift.
He took out two large ingots of silver from his sleeve pocket and threw them on the table with two sounds of "clang, bang, bang,".
"Is this for my Lord?"
"This is to honor you, you take it... There are still small ones here, there are so many... But there is one condition for the small ones, that is, the small ones are also very eager and want to use your throne to make a fortune. If you win, you will win.
It's yours, if you lose, it's mine."
"Is there such a good thing? Is it possible that my brother committed something in the capital and wants to ask me to help you solve the problem?"
"It's nothing. I'm really careful every step of the way. I basically don't do anything wrong. I just like to gamble on dice. I have the same taste as you, Mr. Marquis, and I can't change it even if I want to."
"When I see that my little brother is a sweetheart, I will give up my throne to you. I don't want any of the money I win. As long as you invite a table at Dongxing Tower, it will be enough for me.
I think highly of you."
Seeing the serious look of Mr. Cao, Baoyu (Ran Xiaoshi) was angry and laughing at the same time. Even though he was like this, he still wanted to save face. He was a typical old Beijinger, very cute.
"Okay, look after you! Mr. Marquis, if it doesn't work, we will fall apart!"
Baoyu (Ran Xiaoshi) sat on the old Marquis's chair, and the boy very obediently moved another chair for the old Marquis to sit on.
"Old Marquis, in fact, the most powerful one is playing Ma Diao. No one can outsmart me. I am the Ma Diao King."
"Don't brag, let's play a few games first and have fun."
The croupier was about to roll the dice when Baoyu (Ran Xiaoshi) squinted his eyes and said, "Slow down! It's so boring to play like this... Well, let's take out another pair of dice and let's play against you. I heard that you are all
The Dice King of Beijing? I will roll the dice with you!"
Everyone on the spot laughed, including the old Marquis.
"Don't make trouble, kid, the dealer this week is very powerful..."
Baoyu (Ran Xiaoshi) took out a handful of banknotes from his arms and threw them on the table, saying: "I'm really not fooling around. I came prepared today. I won't leave until I win the house in Tianxiang Gambling House."
of!"
The whole gambling den was blown up. Who is this, who dares to say such shameless words?
The "Dice King" was a big man with a red face. He kept silent and stared at the dice cup in his hand.
"If you don't say anything, it will be regarded as your promise. Since you are a man from the Holy Mountain, you must behave like a man from the Holy Mountain. Do you think this is the truth?"
Hearing this, "Dice King" trembled several times involuntarily.
The old Marquis's originally cloudy eyes suddenly lit up.
This is new. Is the old prince also related to the "Son of the Holy Mountain"?
"Bet, one hundred thousand."
"The Dice King" always spoke so briefly, and as soon as he finished speaking, he heard the whole hall explode with a "boom".
This "Dice King" has a rule, that is, as long as he says "Bet, one hundred thousand.", it means that the person who comes is also a top expert and is worthy of his "100,000" hand.
Could it be that this bamboo pole-like guy is a top gambling expert? I really can’t tell!
At this time, the old Marquis also became excited. He took off his big fur cloak, leaving only a short coat. He looked at Baoyu (Ran Xiaoshi) who was smiling all the time, and said while rubbing his shoulders: "This trip was worth it."
, it’s worth a big fortune! Hurry, I can’t wait..."
At this time, the boy brought a dice cup to Baoyu (Ran Xiaoshi). Baoyu (Ran Xiaoshi) shook it in his hand and said, "Two big tea cups instead!"
This sentence once again caused the entire hall to roar.
Twenty years ago, an unknown boy used a big tea cup to shake dice in this Tianxiang Gambling House and won the "Dice King"'s master, Old Dice King, five million taels of silver. This game lasted for five days and five nights.
Big gambling has become a legend in the world.
Could this bet be another stage of the decisive battle that year?
"You can change it to a big tea cup, but I want twelve dice to be rolled!"
The "Dice King" has never talked so much, this is the first time in these years.
Hearing this, Baoyu (Ran Xiaoshi) laughed.
Let alone twelve dice, Baoyu (Ran Xiaoshi) has also played with twenty-four dice.
(Whether Baoyu (Ran Xiaoshi) can win this bet, please see the next chapter for analysis.)
