When I woke up from a deep sleep, I saw that the dusk was already deep. Under the shining of the setting sun, Han Xiangzi, a young master from a wealthy family, stretched his muscles on the grass. Suddenly, his joints crackled, and he felt an indescribable joy all over his body.
It seems to have spiritual energy, jumping and brisk, making people feel extremely comfortable.
"That beggar gentleman's wine was really extraordinary. He actually slept for a whole afternoon!" The rich man lay on the ground for a long time before grabbing his bamboo flute and stood up. He continued to loosen his muscles and bones while walking into the city. "I don't know what happened."
It's a good time to meet that beggar man again and taste his blue wine. It's really delicious. It's a pity that I have to be busy with the imperial examination, otherwise I would have to look for him carefully."
Walking unhurriedly into the city, Han Xiangzi, still immersed in the memory of fine wine, asked for directions to his uncle Han Yu and Han Changli's mansion. However, before asking for the directions, Han Xiangzi learned an astonishing fact.
"Ah! The imperial examination is over?!" the rich young master said in shock, "I didn't sleep all afternoon, I slept for many days!?"
He clearly promised his father to come to the capital to take the exam, and regardless of whether he did well or not, he had to at least take part. But now he actually "slept over". Han Xiangzi was immediately at a loss and didn't know how to tell his father and his uncle who were about to meet him.
Explain, but at the same time, he actually missed the beggar's wine even more, saying that a few glasses of the wine would satisfy the hunger, and it must be a fairy wine.
Hesitating on the street for a while, seeing the lanterns coming on and the night turning into a mysterious sky, even if he no longer dared to face Han Changli, he still had to pay a visit. Han Xiangzi could only rush to the Han Mansion with an uneasy mood, but he met Han Yu before he could enter the door.
Han Yu's face was very ugly. He glared at Han Xiangzi angrily and wanted to scold him in the street, but in the end he suppressed his anger and called him to the backyard.
"Sure enough~ I'm really angry~" Han Xiangzi sighed, "I didn't go to the exam, no wonder Uncle Changli was angry."
When he came to the deserted backyard, Han Changli scolded his clan grandson angrily, furious, and wanted to beat him. However, the content was different from what Han Xiangzi predicted. It was not about an exam, but he accused "him" of beating other brothers in the clan. It was a bit.
The confused rich man stood there and listened for a long time, and gradually understood the cause and effect. It seemed that "he" had taken the exam. However, at the end, he met several brothers from the clan outside the examination hall, because several brothers ridiculed "him".
"He was dressed rich and luxurious, but behaved inelegantly, scratching his head and head like a silly monkey. He scolded him for "wearing a crown while bathing in monkeys", and was beaten by "him".
"... I've heard that you are brave and fierce, often drunk, making troubles, and fighting with gangsters in the market, but I never thought of being such a bastard!" Han Changli lectured, "How could you be so cruel!? You almost broke their appearance, you know
?! You are a scholar who came to take the imperial examination, not a gangster, how can you beat someone! And you beat a brother of your own race?!"
"I...uh..." Han Xiangzi deliberately denied it, but he couldn't be sure whether he hit someone. After all, he was drunk and slept for many days, so he couldn't be sleepwalking.
After much deliberation, the rich man could only admit his "mistake", apologized respectfully to Han Changli, expressed remorse, and was willing to bear the treatment expenses for his brothers in the clan. However, he suddenly found that his financial expenses were gone, and everyone
The valuable jewelry was gone, and only a bamboo flute was left. With no choice, Han Xiangzi could only shamelessly borrow money from Han Yu, not only to compensate his brothers in the clan, but also to take advantage of the bustling capital to go out and have a good time.
"You!" Han Changli was furious, but still threw some silver coins to Han Xiangzi, "That's all."
"It's a little less." Han Xiangzi's family is rich, very rich, and he is used to spending a lot of money. This amount of silver is a lot in the eyes of others, but it is not enough for him. "I'll give you more~ I heard that there is a Fengyue Field in the capital.
Many beautiful girls, I..."
"roll!"
Han Changli couldn't bear it anymore and was so angry that he stretched out his hand to hit someone, but Han Xiangzi moved quickly and ran away over the wall. When he was at the top of the wall, he didn't forget to thank his uncle for the gift. Han Yu was so angry that he almost fainted.
After coming out, Han Xiangzi, who was walking on the street, racked his brains to recall whether he was sleepwalking during exams or hitting people, but he couldn't figure it out no matter how hard he tried, so he had to give up - he didn't particularly care anyway. He weighed the silver in his hand.
The rich man still feels shabby. The money is enough for drinking and having fun, riding a horse and hitting balls, but it may not be enough for spending a lot of money on a romantic field.
When Han Xiangzi was troubled, he suddenly saw a group of rich people gathering on the street, surrounding an old man, placing gold and silver for the fun of fighting and gambling. The rich man was overjoyed, and pushed his way through the crowd and came inside, carefully asking the old man how to play and how to count money.
.
The kind-faced old man asked: "I'm betting big here, do you dare?"
"Why don't you dare?" Han Xiangzi said, "No matter how old you are, you dare!"
"You dare to bet on life, death, and your whole life?"
"dare!"
The old man smiled and said: "Okay. The rules are very simple. I have three copper coins. One is heaven, the second is earth, and the third is all phenomena in the world. The sky changes endlessly, the terrain is as complex as basil, and all the phenomena in the world have thousands of traces, one is yin and one is yang.
Throw it with luck."
"Oh~ Guess the pros and cons." Han Xiangzi said with a smile, "It's so easy. Let's do it."
"Okay, let's start." The old man said, holding three copper coins in his hand, "Young man, do you want to guess first or second?"
Han Xiangzi asked: "What is the first guess? What is the second guess?"
The old man explained: "Guessing first is measuring, then guessing is knowing. Measuring the world is difficult, knowing the world..."
Han Xiangzi asked: "How about knowing the heaven and the earth?"
"It's difficult, hehehe..." the old man said with a smile, "To measure the right and wrong of the heaven and the earth, the heaven and the earth must be really right and wrong, otherwise the fortunes will change in an instant, and the right and wrong will become the right and wrong. But if the universe has fallen into dust, there will be a definite number and knowledge.
It’s unchanged—relatively simple.”
"It makes sense." Han Xiangzi said, "But I like gambling to be more difficult. The harder it is, the greater the reward."
The old man said: "Okay, let the young man guess first."
Han Xiangzi said: "I guess the sky is righteous, the earth is righteous, and everything in the world is also righteous."
The old man threw up three copper coins. The coins flew up, then fell, clanging and falling on the stone slab. Many young people raised their eyes to watch, and suddenly shouted, "Righteness! Everything is right! The sky is right! The earth is right!
Everything is righteous! The universe is clear and the world is peaceful, of course it is righteous! You guessed it! You guessed it! You guessed it! Hahaha..."
"Okay! If you, young man, see that everything in the world is righteous, then it is righteous, hahahaha..." Although the old man lost money, he was not anxious or upset, "If you see that everything in the world is not righteous, then it is bad.
Hey, hahaha..." After saying that, the old man happily paid the money.
Han Xiangzi won the money but refused to leave. He still wanted to bet, "Come again! My guess is right! It must be right! It is right!"
"Okay, okay, come again."
The old man tossed the copper coins again, and sure enough, they were all correct. He still lost money readily, without any impatience or dissatisfaction. Again and again, Han Xiangzi won a lot of money, but the old man lost with nothing in his pocket.
But people still didn't let him go. Unless the old man still had a donkey, it was better to use the donkey as a bet.
"Hey~ This can't be done." The old man shook his head, "This donkey is my family, and we have deep feelings for each other, so we can't gamble. That's it for today. I'll leave first, old man, and find a place to earn some gambling money. When the time comes,
Let's fight with you again." The old man rode the donkey backwards and looked at Han Xiangzi with a smile. "I hope that when I see you next time, you still think that everything in the world is righteous, hahaha..." After saying this, the old man rode on the donkey.
The donkey walks away.
Han Xiangzi watched the old man leave and said confidently: "Of course it is upright, it is always upright. My world must be upright. Even if it is not upright, with my passion and my hands full of gold and silver, I can win the world and win the world. I will change my world to the right."
Hahaha..." With a hearty laugh, the rich man turned around and headed straight to Fengyue Corridor.
