Chapter 8 One day is no more than three

Compared to the previous scene, this scene is more eye-catching and well-prepared. The eunuch and palace maid who were originally hiding in the corner to watch the excitement have consciously approached with a lantern, hoping that the prince can see the battle clearly.

"Song Renfeng, I would like to ask my little father-in-law for advice." The guard was polite and stood three steps away from Chang Yu, clasping his fists.

Chang Yu imitated him and made a fist, then took a step back, clenched his fists in front of him to protect him, lowered his body, and began to slowly beat and walk with his feet...

Zhu Cixiang began to narrow his eyes, and the guards who were watching also looked confused. What was he doing, a master dance?

Md is like a clown, Song Renfeng cursed in his heart, raised the corner of his mouth, and punched Chang Yu.

The open door is too big! You deserve to be unlucky. Chang Yu sighed inwardly, turned slightly sideways, and threw a right hook. Hey, he didn't fall down. Looking at the shaky opponent, he gave you another left whip kick.

Bang, the sound of Song Renfeng falling to the ground pierced everyone's heart. They all jumped in unison, and then so quickly, the same punch and kick!

What I fear most is the sudden silence in the air...

"Thank you, Prince, for the reward." When everyone was quiet, Chang Yu walked up the stairs, kowtowed in front of Zhu Cihong, and then stretched out his left hand.

Bang bang bang bang, Zhu Cixiang stood up, shook his head and pawed: "I'm amazed, I'm amazed, I didn't expect that the Ministry of Internal Affairs has a master." As he said this, he took the silver from the little eunuch beside him and handed it to Chang Yu.

"Prince, please fight!" At this time, a short and capable guard walked up to Zhu Cihong, kowtowed and clasped his fists.

Zhu Cixiang's eyes lit up again. This was his personal bodyguard, a master of Bajiquan and a recognized expert in the Prince's Mansion.

"Prince, I can only compete three times a day at most. Today is full. If this hero wants to compete, please queue up tomorrow." Chang Yu said quickly without waiting for Zhu Cixiang to express his stance.

Because they are both martial arts practitioners, he can feel the opponent's aura. This is a tough opponent. In his previous life, he would not be afraid at all, but now his body is too weak and he has been doing chores for an afternoon, and he has just been beaten twice.

The game consumes a lot of physical energy, and all the energy and energy are not at their peak. I don't fight if I can, not because I am afraid of losing, but because I am afraid that the win will not be beautiful.

Zhu Cixiang was a little hesitant. He wanted to see it, but he also knew that the little eunuch wouldn't dare refuse him as long as he opened his mouth.

"Prince, there are more than 8,000 palace guards. If there is such a round of fighting, even a small King Kong will be stabbed to pieces." Chang Yu wiped his eyes and said quickly.

"Okay, let's fight again tomorrow. You tell us a time." The short and capable guard was fair and spoke first before the prince could speak.

"Tomorrow we have to be on duty in the morning, there is a game at noon, and we have to be on duty in the afternoon, so let's do it tomorrow," Chang Yu said thoughtfully.

"You don't have to be on duty tomorrow. Come here now," Zhu Cixiang said suddenly.

But……

"Eunuch Liu, I will let you know. You should go back and have a good rest in preparation for tomorrow's battle. Is this fair?"

Chang Yu was secretly happy that knowing a second-generation official finally gave him some benefits. At least it was convenient to ask for leave. Although the East Palace was not in charge of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, who dared not to give it to the Crown Prince? "Thank you, Crown Prince."

You just let me go, and you really didn't invite me in for a chat? I can tell fortunes, and I can tell you about your past and present lives...

Chang Yu left the Prince's Mansion feeling a little depressed. He thought that by his outstanding performance, he would gain the Prince's favor and get close to him, but to his surprise... he didn't even enter the Ciqing Palace gate.

On the other hand, the little beauty Linglong who sent him out was very excited, saying that he had gained face for the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and kept asking Chang Yu if he was sure about tomorrow's battle. The captain of the guard named Tang Poshan was very powerful...

Chang Yu returned to Shangshan Prison to have a meal, and then went directly back to the prison yard to rest. He was recovering from a serious injury. Playing three games a day made him a little tired.

Chunxiang hasn't come back yet, and I don't know which master he is serving. Most of the other eunuchs in the house have returned, including the usually domineering Jiang Quan.

When Jiang Quan saw Chang Yu come back, his expression was a little strange, as if he was restless.

Chang Yu didn't take care of him. In fact, in the dormitory, except for the old eunuch, he only communicated with Chunxiang. Everyone else was on the same level as Jiang Quan, which was a small group.

In fact, Chang Yu was a little worried after beating Jiang Quan before. Maybe Jiang Quan had a good relationship with one of the young masters and tried to find ways to deal with him. However, he later discovered that the eunuchs of Shangshan Supervisor had almost no chance to personally serve the young master.

He only had one-third of an acre in the royal dining hall to wander around, so he felt relieved. Who would he be afraid of in a fight?

Chang Yu, who had long been accustomed to the sour smell in the room, walked to the bed and lay down on it. It was comfortable, and even with all kinds of strange smells, it was a pleasure.

There were a few clattering sounds, and the silver in his arms fell from the bed to the ground. The two large silver ingots attracted the eyes of other eunuchs, some were surprised, some were envious, some were greedy, but there was no sound.

"Brother Chang went to gamble. It seems he is lucky, or which master rewarded him?" The old eunuch nestled in the corner broke the silence.

"I just beat up two personal guards in Duanben Palace, and the prince rewarded me with it." Chang Yu didn't even raise his head, stretched out his hand to touch the ground, and put the silver into his arms.

Huh! All the eunuchs looked at each other in shock, especially Jiang Quan's expression, which changed again and again. How could this kid become so evil? He beat himself up a few days ago and was planning how to deal with him. Unexpectedly, today they heard that he had killed a Jinwu guard.

The beating made him feel guilty. Unexpectedly, he beat up the personal guards of the Prince's Mansion again the next afternoon, and there were two of them! The most important thing is that he beat the personal guards of the Prince's Mansion and rewarded him with money. What is this?

Ghost, have you climbed onto the prince’s lap?

Jiang Quan was silent for a while, his face changed several times, and finally he gritted his teeth, changed his smile, and walked gently to Chang Yu's bed: "Brother Chang, can you gamble?"

Gambling? Chang Yu, who originally didn't want to talk to him, suddenly raised his head and his eyes lit up: "You don't have to eat, you have to gamble, but you can only play dice."

"Playing with both hands?" Jiang Quan said with a shy smile.

"Here?" Chang Yu asked.

Of course it's not here.

Some of the twenty-four yamen of the Ministry of Internal Affairs are open 24 hours a day, and Shang Shanjian is one of them. Although there is a royal kitchen in the harem dedicated to serving the emperor around the clock, the mistresses and guards outside the harem often talk in the middle of the night.

night snack.

Being on duty at night is boring, but it is also interesting. In addition to drinking some wine and bragging, there is also gambling. Over time, a routine has been formed: the market opens on time after Hai Shi (11 p.m.) every night.

The casino is located in a large utility room in Shangshanjian. The gambling facilities include Pai Gow and dice. You can choose which one you like to play and which one you are good at.

It is said that there are several casinos opened by the Ministry of Internal Affairs every night, but Shang Shanjian is the most famous one, not because of the big game, but on the contrary, there is almost no threshold for the small game, because there is no money and no money.

Eunuchs all come here. On the contrary, those who are rich and wealthy like to go to the places opened by the Secretary of Ceremony, the Royal Horse Supervisor, and the Royal Supervisor. After all, there are many wealthy owners in those fat and poor yamen, and they have a lot of fun.

To put it bluntly, Shang Shanjian takes the civilian route and relies on quantity.

So when Chang Yu and others arrived, it was already overcrowded.

Hey, look, that's Eunuch Chang

Which Eunuch Chang?

Shangshan Supervisor Chang Yu Chang Eunuch

Hey, is that Eunuch Chang who defeated Jin Wuwei?

Not only were the Jinwu Guards defeated, but the two personal guards of the Prince's Mansion were also defeated...

Real or fake...

Although he was expected to be somewhat famous, he was still a little surprised. He was recognized as soon as he entered the casino. Eunuchs and maids from different yamen had already started talking about him. Yes, it was not surprising at all that there were maids in the casino.

Of course, the most surprising thing is that the incident in the Prince's Mansion two hours ago has been spread. It is assumed that the eunuchs and maids in the Prince's Mansion did it. This is really the information age.

Chang Yu is a person with strong self-control. This is a professional habit developed as a boxer, so he will leave the game immediately after twelve o'clock, even though he is already a star in the casino, even though his luck has been very good.

His professional habits made him understand the importance of regular work and rest, not to mention that he had two fights to fight tomorrow, including a tough one.

In half an hour, he won 30 taels of silver, and his character exploded in a low-end casino with a lot of sluts. In addition to luck, this was also due to Chang Yu's skills. He could tell the authenticity of the dice as soon as he picked them up.

You can get the points you want eight times out of ten. This is all practiced in later generations. Even if you can't fully display it now, you will still win more and lose less.

Thirty taels is enough for an ordinary family of five in this era to spend a year, and can also buy a house in an outer city. It is also the annual salary of a third- or fourth-rank official. Let me add that the wages of officials in the Ming Dynasty were pitifully low.

Chang Yu fell asleep when he returned to the dormitory, but Jiang Quan and others were so excited that they stayed up all night because they followed him and won a few taels of silver.
