Although the fight between Wang Dalu and Yinren has ended, the entire city, both the common people and the nobles, are sending their regards to Yinren's parents, relatives and friends in their hearts.
Many people even thought that Yin Ren, Wang Dalu and the gambling house were working together to enrich everyone's wealth through martial arts competitions.
On the second day, a large number of people gathered in front of the three major gambling houses.
It can be seen that these common people were instigated by some powerful people and started a protest throughout Sunshine City, hoping to get back the huge gambling funds they invested.
This incident caused quite a stir.
The city guard officer received the order from Marquis Lu Yang and sent troops to guard the gates of the three major gambling houses to prevent the people from rioting.
Lu Guang also received an order from his father, Marquis Lu Yang, to take charge of handling the matter and calming the anger of the people.
After receiving the order, Lu Guang could only shake his head with a wry smile, knowing that his father must have known that he had redeemed a woman from a romantic place and hid him here and became angry, so he handed over this thankless job.
Let him handle it.
Lu Guang knew that if he handled it well, the ridiculous things he had done could be written off, but if things went wrong, he would be punished and maybe even Lan Meier wouldn't be able to protect her.
Lu Guang was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot, and immediately notified the city guard officer to lead troops to maintain order.
Looking at the dark crowd shouting angrily on the street in front of the gambling house, Lu Guang's scalp went numb. He had never seen such a big battle before.
At the reminder of the guard officer beside him, Lu Guang straightened his robe subconsciously, cheered up and squeezed in surrounded by a group of soldiers.
Most of the people knew Lu Guang, and their emotions fluctuated even more when they saw him here. Fortunately, the guard officer's loud shout made the crowd's eardrums hurt, and they gradually calmed down.
These common people are usually very submissive and cautious, so they don't dare to collide with people in the court.
But this time it was different. Behind these people were some dignitaries from the DPRK and China who were supporting them, and because this time they thought they were a sure bet, they ended up losing everything. How could they not be angry?
Lu Guang knew that people from the imperial court were behind these troublemakers, so he forgave their innocence and did not let the soldiers suppress them.
Lu Guang asked the common people to find a dozen representatives to go into the gambling house to talk to him and listen to their demands.
The door of the gambling house was closed tightly. It was not until Lu Guang came with many soldiers that the steward of the gambling house asked the men to open the door and welcome Lu Guang in.
Lu Guang led a group of soldiers to the lobby of the gambling house and sat down.
The noisy crowd outside gradually calmed down under the officials' persuasion.
An entire hour passed before a dozen trembling figures came in from the entrance of the casino.
However, even though some of them were wearing coarse linen clothes, they could still tell that they were born in wealthy families. Lu Guang guessed that these people must be people sent by the powerful and powerful people in the court.
Several people stood in front of Lu Guang and expressed their thoughts.
Everyone's opinions are very consistent. They all believe that the gambling house, Wang Gui, and Yin Ren worked together to defraud their money. They want to get their gambling money back and get justice.
After Lu Guang listened, before he could speak, he heard a middle-aged man from behind who looked like a steward of a gambling house kneeling in front of him and saying aggrievedly.
"Your Highness, we are unjustly accused. Our gambling house is also one of the victims this time. We are the same masters who have lost everything but can't pay back the winnings!"
Lu Guang knew the most about this matter. He knew that his father had invested a large amount of waste crystals in partnership with Wang Dalu.
If calculated at an odds of 20 times, it would be almost equal to the wealth of half the city of Sunshine City.
These people include his brother Lu Xu, the man behind the gambling house, who will owe huge gambling debts.
Thinking of this, Lu Guang said something.
"Both of you insist on your own opinions. I will not make a judgment until this matter is fully investigated. Let's do this. In half a month, I will personally hear the case in the lobby of the City Lord's Mansion. You will all hear the announcement then."
Those dozen representatives knew that this was the only thing they could do. If they continued to cause trouble and made His Highness in front of them unhappy, they would be in trouble.
Lu Guang watched a dozen representatives return to the crowd, and after some shouting, the crowd gradually dispersed.
He breathed a sigh of relief, looked at the gambling manager who was bowing in front of him, and reminded him.
"Oh, by the way, remember to ask the boss behind your gambling house to come and hear the announcement in half a month."
The manager looked confused.
"Your Highness, this..."
Lu Guang smiled.
"Just tell your boss what I said truthfully. Whether you come or not is a matter between me and him and has nothing to do with you."
It wasn't until late at night that Lu Guang returned to the mansion.
Originally, he wanted to discuss the matter with Wang Dalu at Wang Dalu's residence, but seeing that it was getting late, he went back to rest.
The second person, Lu Guang, got up early. Lan Meier, who was sleeping on the same bed, knew that Lu Guang had important matters recently, so she also got up to help Lu Guang dress and wash.
The two lingered for a while, and then Lu Guang came to Wang Dalu's door.
Qian Dayong and Zhao Gensheng were standing in the courtyard. When they saw Lu Guang coming, they knocked on the door and replaced Wang Dalu.
The moment Wang Dalu saw Lu Guang, he knew that Lu Guang must be looking for something, otherwise he would not come out early in the morning to disturb his dreams.
"Brother Lu Guang came here early in the morning and brought all the gambling money I won."
When Lu Guang heard this, he remembered that he had forgotten to ask for gambling funds from the gambling house. However, he then thought about the fact that the city lord's palace would review the matter half a month later and apologized to Wang Dalu.
"I came here today to confess to Brother Wang."
"oh?"
"Brother Wang defeated Yinren with one move and returned here. He didn't know that many things happened outside."
Lu Guang also told Wang Dalu in detail about yesterday's incident where people in the city besieged the gambling house and demanded gambling money.
In fact, Wang Dalu heard these things from Qian Dayong last night.
He knew that the amount of wild crystals he and Marquis Lu Yang had invested was too huge, and it would be difficult for those gambling funds to pay off his gambling remuneration, so he had been sending people to pay attention to the development of this matter.
At this time, I heard Lu Guangdao again.
"I have already asked people to put all the gambling funds in the three major gambling houses into storage and seal them in advance, and then hand them over to Brother Wang after fifteen days. What do you think?"
Wang Dalu nodded and saw that Lu Guang looked bad.
"Brother Lu, why do you look unhappy? You have severely dampened that younger brother's spirit this time."
Lu Guang replied.
"Brother Wang showed off his power and vented his anger on my behalf. I should have been happy, but when I thought about the innocent people in the city, they invested all their hard-earned money. Now that they have lost all their money, how will they live in the future?
."
Wang Dalu couldn't help but admire Lu Guang's kindheartedness and he would definitely be a wise king in the future.
"Let me tell you, Brother Lu, you are worrying too much."
Lu Guang heard Wang Dalu's tone and knew that he should have a way to relieve his worries, so he humbly asked for advice.
"If Brother Wang has a good idea, please tell Brother Yu quickly."
Wang Dalu said something in his mouth.
"Have Brother Lu forgotten those wild crystals your father gave you?"
After Lu Guangjing mentioned it to Wang Dalu, he remembered that his father, Marquis Luyang, had also invested a lot of money at Wang Dalu's request, and he seemed to understand.
"Does Brother Wang mean to return the money my father won to the people?"
Wang Dalu asked rhetorically.
"Brother Lu, why do you think Marquis Lu Yang gave you those gambling funds?"
This time, Lu Guang was stunned.
It turns out that his father, Marquis Luyang, had already thought of this, so he had prepared gambling funds in advance, and the money he won would be returned to the people.
Looking at Lu Guang's leaving figure, Wang Dalu suddenly said something old-fashioned.
"What a pitiful parent in the world!"
Zhao Gensheng stood aside and shook his head like a rattle, not understanding the meaning of his elder's words.
Qian Dayong said to Wang Dalu.
"If you ask me, sir, you are far-sighted."
Lu Guang left Wang Dalu's residence with joy. He now knew everything his father had done for him.
When the time comes when he pretends to ask Wang Dalu in public to exempt those people from gambling money, then the people in Sunshine City will definitely be grateful to him.
If something happens in the future, he will be able to raise his arms and raise his voice, and his reputation will be far superior to that of his younger brother Lu Xuliang.
Thinking of this, Lu Guang suddenly stopped and thought of what Wang Dalu had done in the past few days, and couldn't help but break into a cold sweat.
His father, Marquis Luyang, gave him gambling capital because Wang Dalu facilitated it in advance. In other words, when he explained to his father about Wang Dalu's joint investment, his father understood what Wang Dalu meant, so he happily
I agreed to this matter.
This Wang Dalu was much younger than him, but with his astonishing abilities, endless calculations, and well-thought-out strategy, he was truly a monster in this world.
