The next morning, the emperor asked his father-in-law to read the fold, and was about to announce the dissolution of the dynasty, when he saw Chen Qing shouting; "Your Majesty, the minister has something to do with the emperor."

The emperor smiled: "Chen Aiqing, please tell me something." ”

"Your Majesty, the minister has an unfilial son, named Chen Bo, who is addicted to gambling. According to her daughter-in-law, she only learned after questioning that my son went to a gambling house called 'Shuang Zailai' a few days ago to gamble money, and lost 1,000 taels of silver, and the gambling debt was repaid by Li Shangshu's son Li Fugui. ”

Chen Qing finished in one breath. The ministers were dumbfounded, what did Chen Qing think, does everyone know that his son has to get money for gambling? No, he said that Li Shangshu's son helped his son pay off his gambling debts, that is to say, Li Shangshu's son also gambled money, and one thousand taels of silver is not a small amount, why should Li Shangshu's son pay off the gambling debts for the son of Lord Yushi, does Li Shangshu have a request for Lord Yushi? For a moment, the court seemed to explode. There are all kinds of speculations.

The emperor glared at what was the situation, the court returned the silver taels, can't he pay it back in private, what else is there 'cool again', why is the name of this gambling house so vulgar. Why haven't I heard of it before, there are still 1,000 taels of silver, which is not a small amount, why does the son of the Li Shangshu family pay off the gambling debts for the son of Yushi, he is not afraid of 1,000 taels of silver?

The emperor looked at Li Liucai with suspicion and asked, "Is there such a thing as Li Aiqing?" ”

Li Liucai never expected that Chen Qing would dare to tell Chen Bo about gambling money in the court. was stunned for a moment, "Your Majesty, Weichen really doesn't know about this, Rong Weichen will go back and ask the dog." ”

"Then there is Master Lao Shangshu, bring the IOU tomorrow morning, and I will pay you back the silver taels." Chen Yushi arched his hand and said.

The emperor looked at Li Liucai and asked Chen Qing, "Chen Aiqing knows the specific location of the 'Shuang Come Again' gambling house, I want to go there when I have time." ”

"Your Majesty, Weichen doesn't know where it is, but I heard my daughter-in-law say that since the last time she made a big fuss in the gambling house, it has been closed down." Chen Qing reported truthfully.

The emperor said curiously: "Your daughter-in-law is making trouble in the gambling house, it's interesting, let's hear it." ”

"Your Majesty, my daughter-in-law is the daughter of a well-known wealthy merchant in Kyoto City, and she also runs a silk Zhuangzi, and she is knowledgeable."

"It's a good knowledgeable person, and it's all going to make a big fuss in the gambling house." The emperor shook his head and said.

"The emperor doesn't know, that gambling house is a black-hearted gambling house, according to my son, where he is and lost a thousand taels of silver only five times."

"Father-in-law Li, you have to find out, who opened that gambling house, and it is so deceitful."

"It's the emperor."

Hearing that the emperor wanted to check the gambling house, Li Liucai was so frightened that he was sweating profusely.

The emperor looked at Li Liucai, who was sweating profusely, and asked, "Li Aiqing, are you very hot?" ”

Li Liucai wiped his face: "The minister is not hot, not hot, just nervous for a while." ”

"Then you must ask your son when you go back, did you pay off the gambling debts for Chen Yushi's son?"

Li Liucai is thinking about where he can hear the emperor if he gets through the trick.

Seeing that he was silent, someone on the side reminded: "Lord Li, what did the emperor ask you?" ”

"The emperor atoned for his sins, and Weichen just lost his mind for a while."

"I don't blame you, I just remind you not to forget to ask your son about helping others pay off their gambling debts."

"Wechen must remember."

"Then let's scatter it!"

Gonggong Li supported the emperor, got down from the Jinluan Palace, and asked as he walked: "Your Majesty, do you really want to check that gambling house?" ”

"Little Lizi, what do you think about this?" The emperor looked at Gonggong Li and asked.

"I think this matter must not be simple, if it is just to pay off gambling debts, Chen Yushi can repay the silver in private, without having to get it to the court, and everyone knows that his son gambles."

"What do you think?"

Gonggong Li thought for a while and said, "This slave is not easy to say, there may be other hidden secrets." ”

"I believe that Chen Qing is innocent, you can find out privately for me. Who the hell opened that gambling house? "The emperor actually suspected Li Liucai of embezzling treasury money for a long time, but because there was no real evidence, it was difficult to decide the case.

"The emperor can rest assured, the slave will do it immediately."

"Don't startle the snake yet."

"I know the emperor."

Gonggong Li sent the emperor back to the palace, changed his clothes, and glued his beard. I went to 'Yanchun Tower'.

Although this 'Yanchun Building' is a place of fireworks, it is also a good place to inquire about things, as soon as Father-in-law Li entered Yanchun Building, the old mother in charge came forward: "Hey, why did you come outside Li Yuanwai?" Our Mei Niang has been thinking about you for a long time, and she talks about you all day long. He is also guarding you like a jade. ”

"Where is Mei Niang now?" Gonggong Li asked.

"Sing in the hall." The old mother said.

Gonggong Li took out ten taels of silver from his arms and handed it to the man named Wang Ma and said, "Wang Ma, this is ten taels of silver, and Lao Wang Ma called Mei Niang over." ”

"Li Yuanwai, you are polite, you must stay for a few more days when you come to the capital this time, and accompany our family."

Gonggong Li smiled: "Of course." ”

After a while, Mei Niang came over from the hall, approached Gonggong Li and asked, "Is there anything that Lord Li is looking for me?" ”

"I'll ask you something, let's go to the room and say, there are a lot of people here." Gonggong Li pulled Mei Niang into the nearest room.

When the two came to the room, Gonggong Li let go of Mei Niang and asked, "Xiao Mei, are you still guarding Song He?" ”

"We fireworks women, no matter how much we guard, we won't be taken seriously, I just think about how long I can keep it! I've done my best, thanks to Master Li, if it weren't for you, I'm afraid that Wang Ma would have dragged me to pick up the guests a long time ago. ”

"Xiaomei, I also have something to ask you, we don't have to thank each other."

"I wonder what the adults want to ask? Mei Niang must know everything, and she must say everything. ”

Gonggong Li hesitated and asked, "What I want to ask is there a 'cool return' gambling house in Kyoto?" ”

"Why did Master Li suddenly care about the gambling house, did he want to gamble for money, or did he want to relieve the depression in his heart?" Mei Niang deliberately teased.

"It's not that I want to inquire, it's really the emperor's order."

"The emperor wants to go to the gambling house? It's no coincidence that the gambling house has closed its doors. ”

"It's closed, how can it be closed? Doesn't it mean that business is booming? ”

"It was really prosperous for a while, but I heard that after the young lady of the Imperial History Mansion came to make a big fuss, it was closed."

Gonggong Li said deliberately: "Why does the young lady of the Imperial History Mansion make a big fuss in the gambling house. ”

"Needless to say, it must be the young master who lost the silver." ――
