After Xu Qing and his people arrived at Yongxing Gambling House, the shopkeeper and all the clerks bowed down and said, "I have met the prince!"
The person who was once so majestic in Tang Wan's eyes is now as weak and as stable and honest as a lamb waiting to be slaughtered, and he doesn't even dare to take a breath.
Of course you are honest!
It's okay for people like them to bully ordinary gamblers, but if you really go against the prince, a hundred gambling houses will be bulldozed by you!
When Xu Qing walked into the gambling house, he saw rows of gambling tables and even many gamblers.
These anxious gamblers also calmed down at this time and knelt down one after another.
What made Xu Qing sigh was that all these gamblers had dull eyes and two dark circles under their eyes. Although they looked full of energy, they would never see hope if they continued to work hard.
Just like the regent at the great court meeting...
Xu Qing should really have some mirrors installed in this gambling house so that they can take a good look at what he looks like now.
Stay away from gambling and drugs without delay!
After Xu Qing walked in, she looked at Tang Wan and asked, "How much does Miss Tang's family owe Yongxing Gambling House?"
Tang Wan pursed her lips and said softly: "There are still five hundred taels... but they said that including interest, it is actually nearly a thousand taels..."
If nothing else goes wrong, Tang Wan, who has only made a living from embroidery all her life, may never be able to repay this loan shark that is getting bigger and bigger like a headache.
Shopkeeper Wu of Yongxing Casino quickly stood up and said with a smile: "Wherever, these are the villain's work without permission. The villain's loans have always been very fair, and he will never dare to raise interest rates without authorization. Absolutely no
Nearly a thousand taels! The money Miss Tang owes is only five hundred taels! Those villains who talk nonsense to collect debts must be taught a lesson!"
Although shopkeeper Wu from Yongxing Casino laughed along with him, his body was visibly trembling.
Xu Qing smiled and shook his head and said: "No, let's calculate it as one thousand taels. Miss Tang Wan is my wife's best friend. I will pay the money today for Miss Tang."
When Tang Wan heard Xu Qing's words, she quickly shook her head and said, "No... no, how can this be allowed?"
Xu Qing said: "It's just a thousand taels of silver. It doesn't matter."
Having said this, Xu Qing touched his body but only found out five taels of silver, so Xu Qing said slightly embarrassed: "Oh, it seems that the money on me today is not enough. Since I got married, my wife has become more and more strict. When I grow up,
What a man’s sorrow.”
Su Qian, who was holding Tang Wan's hand, couldn't help but roll her eyes when she heard Xu Qing's words. Her husband likes to talk nonsense!
How has she ever cared about how much money her husband carries?
The sorrow of an adult man...
Cut~
Everyone present wanted to laugh but did not dare to laugh when they heard Xu Qing's words. Some people even resonated with them and wanted to cry...
Only Shopkeeper Wu couldn't laugh or cry, and the expression on his face became increasingly ugly.
Xu Qing looked at Shopkeeper Wu and said: "Shopkeeper Wu, you see, the money I brought today is not enough, and I just agreed to pay back the money for Miss Tang. A gentleman's words are hard to follow, and I also
It’s too late to go back. You happen to be running a gambling house, so why don’t I gamble some money and use all the money I win to pay off Miss Tang’s debt?”
Shopkeeper Wu heard Xu Qing's words and said quickly: "Yes...yes! Your Majesty, please."
At this time, shopkeeper Wu did not dare to go against Xu Qing's wishes.
Now a small gambling house is just a place for common people to relax and have fun. At this time, a group of imperial officials who have never set foot in a gambling house have come.
All the officials in Yongzhou, big and small, are following him at this moment, and they don't dare to neglect him at all.
Xu Qing picked a gambling table and said, "That's it. It's quite close to the eye, but no one is coming, so it's boring to play alone. Why don't Shopkeeper Wu accompany me to play two games?"
Shopkeeper Wu quickly agreed.
This bet is very simple. The staff of the gambling shop just grabs a handful of dice from the big basin next to it and throws it down to guess whether the number of the dice is odd or even.
When the gambling game started, Xu Qing put the money on the slip without thinking, but shopkeeper Wu wisely put the money on the slip.
And what happened next was also expected. No matter how many bets were made, no matter what Xu Qing bought, Xu Qing would win.
It's not that Xu Qing is very lucky, but Yongxing Gambling House doesn't dare to let Xu Qing lose the bet.
He is a prince, so condescending to come to your gambling house is enough to give you face. If you lose and you are not happy, why don't you demolish your gambling house!
Who can offend His Highness the King of Han?
Ten gambles and nine cheats, the gambling house can let whoever wants to lose lose, and of course it can also win whoever it wants to win.
Soon a pile of money gathered around Xu Qing.
This time Xu Qing put the money on the bill again and said, "I will still pay the bill."
Shopkeeper Wu smiled and said, "Your Majesty is so lucky, I still believe in Shuang."
So Xu Qing won this game again.
Including this last hand, Xu Qing won a full thousand taels of silver, which was a lot of money. Plus the principal, the total was a thousand and five taels of silver!
Xu Qing looked at Shopkeeper Wu and said, "The money will be used to pay off Miss Tang's gambling debt. Is there no problem?"
Shopkeeper Wu said quickly, "No problem, no problem. The prince is sympathetic to her, and the debt between Yongxing Gambling House and Miss Tang has been settled in full."
Xu Qing nodded and put the five taels of silver back into his sleeves: "The sorrow of an adult man..."
Su Qian rolled her eyes again.
Her husband likes to joke around all day long.
Xu Qing then looked at Shopkeeper Wu and Sima Yongzhou and said, "Now that the debt has been paid off, let's talk about business today. What kind of affair is there between Sima Song and Shopkeeper Wu? It's better to bring it up from the ground up.
Don’t let me, the king, do anything hard.”
Shopkeeper Wu and Yongzhou Sima immediately knelt on the ground when they saw His Highness the King of Han, who was smiling just now but suddenly turned cold-eyed: "I really don't know what Your Highness the King of Han means!"
Xu Qing said, "I don't know? I think you two won't shed tears when you see the coffin, Wei Xiong."
Wei Xiong walked out immediately, cupping his fists and saying, "The general is here!"
Xu Qing said: "Your Majesty, please issue an order to check whether there is anything hidden in Song Sima's mansion that should not be hidden."
The State of Chu would not confiscate officials' homes easily, but once they did, there would most likely be something wrong. It was like a paternity test in later generations. If you don't do it when nothing is wrong, there is a high probability of doing it when you decide to do it.
The result is what you think.
Tsk tsk tsk.
Xiao Ye is also very generous here. Although there is no imperial edict, it doesn't matter. Just write a few strokes on a piece of paper and stamp it with a jade seal. According to the standard, this is indeed not an imperial edict, and it does not have the majesty of an imperial edict. But do you dare not listen?
