Chapter 170: All Three
Li Luo's side, just facing the queen's car, was only a few feet away. But if the queen speaks, he may not be able to hear clearly.
Because the sound of the brigade rushing is too noisy. Therefore, Li Luo had to prick up his ears and cheer up his spirits.
But after waiting for a while, I did not hear the queen's voice. Didn't she say she had something to say to herself? It's really said before and forgotten later.
Li Luo suddenly remembered Cui Xiuning's intelligence analysis and said that the queen had to take a nap every day. It's just past noon, and she's supposed to be taking a nap. Judging from the fact that the retainers and guards outside the carriage did not dare to speak out, this can also be confirmed.
Since she was sleeping, she could be freed for a while.
Li Luo deliberately slowed down his horse and distanced himself from the queen's chariot, so that the king of Goryeo and the left and right deputy envoys drove over him in turn, and finally waited for the entourage of the envoy officials.
Li Luo handed over the horse to an entourage, got into Cui Xiuning's carriage, and saw Cui Xiuning counting gold, silver and precious stones.
This time he went to Dadu, Li Luoke brought a lot of gold, silver and precious stones. Now he has hundreds of thousands of gold and silver, a lot of precious stones, and he doesn't care about spending money anymore.
"You're so bored." Li Luo sat down, picked up a piece of gold cake seized from Han Gong, and pretended to eat it.
"How did you get back? Don't talk to your queen anymore? Cui Xiuning didn't raise her head, "Oh, I see, she should be taking a nap." ”
Li Luo untied his official uniform, picked up the fan and slapped it violently, "Too young, too simple...... This horseback riding is also very tiring. The skin on my thighs is about to break. ”
Cui Xiuning glanced at it, found a baggage, turned out two knee-pads, and handed them to Li Luo.
Li Luo took it and took a look, and knew that it was a leg guard, which was specially used for horse riding. It turned out that Cui Xiuning had already prepared.
"Thank you, ma'am." Li Luo smiled, "Why didn't you take it out earlier?" ”
Cui Xiuning played with a cat's eye and said lightly: "I forgot before." I only remembered when I saw you appear. ”
"Okay." Li Luo was convinced. If you don't get into the carriage, you won't get the "leg guards" she prepared.
Li Luo stole laziness for most of the hour in Cui Xiuning's carriage, took advantage of her inattention to the sudden attack, pecked her on the forehead, and quickly jumped out of the carriage.
"Attack the police, you!" Cui Xiuning gritted her teeth and whispered, her fist itching a little with hatred.
When Li Luo got on the horse again, he felt much more comfortable because he was wearing leg guards. This time he had an extra burden on his back, which was a deck of pai gow.
Not long after Li Luo returned to the queen's car, the queen suddenly woke up in a lost place.
Of course, she forgot to speak to Li Luo.
"Yinhou, you come up and roll the dice!" Suddenly, the queen's voice rang out.
Yin Hou, Che Xin, and Zhang Xianlong, the three ministers, suddenly smiled bitterly.
Alas, I'm going to break the bank again today.
Zhang Xianlong whispered: "It seems that the mountain I just got in my hands is going to be dedicated to the princess today." ”
Zhang Xianlong's name is like a Han person, but he is actually a Semu person, and like Che Xin and Yin Hou, he is a lucky villain in the history of Goryeo.
It didn't take long for the three of them to get into the car, and they came out dejected, and it seemed that the loss was not small.
Speaking of which, these three people are also Goryeo courtiers now, but they still act like slaves and maids, and they don't look like ministers at all.
"It's boring, it's boring to kill people!" The queen's voice rang out.
She just "won" a ginseng mining mountain, an Dongzhu sandbank, and a copper mine.
Still, she felt boredly tight. What's the point of winning every time?
"Li Luo!" Suddenly, she shouted, "Come up!" ”
"Yes!" Li Luo was full of excitement and got out of the car immediately.
The queen's carriage was large and luxurious, seating seven or eight people, with carpets and tables of Western wines and fresh fruits.
The queen reclined on a cushion, a servant and maid pressed her shoulders, another thumped her legs, and a maid stood beside her.
The queen took a sip of wine in one hand and played with the dice.
Li Luo's heart suddenly relaxed. This Dayuan princess is actually a girl in her early twenties, and she has just graduated from college in the next generation, so she is nervous?
Even though she has the power to kill and kill, she is not crazy after all. I have Cui Xiuning's intelligence analysis, what are you afraid of?
Li Luo simply sat down directly, and said with a smile that was neither humble nor arrogant: "It turns out that the princess also likes to play games." Wechen also likes it, however, Wechen likes to play Pai Gow the most. ”
Only then did the queen raise her eyelids and said lightly: "Pai Gow? What is that? ”
Li Luo said: "No wonder the princess hasn't heard of it. This pai gow is a thing that Weichen has nothing to do and makes it himself. ”
After he finished speaking, he took off his baggage and opened it, revealing thirty-two small sandalwood cards, "Princess, please see, this is exactly what it is." Because it's fun, Wechen specially carries it on his body. ”
"Huh?" The queen reached out and picked up a small wooden plaque, and immediately became interested.
"How to play this pai gow?" It was the first time the queen had seen gambling equipment with so many wooden cards, and her intuition told her that this thing was not simple.
Li Luo explained while demonstrating in kind: "Pai Gow is actually dice, but it is more fun and complicated. Princess, please see, there are eleven pairs of cards in Pai Gow, which are heaven, earth, man, and, bench, tiger head, copper hammer, ......"
The rules of Pai Gow are not difficult, and they are indeed highly entertaining and addictive. With Li Luo's explanation, the queen's interest also became stronger.
"Yes, this game is really interesting!" After understanding the rules, the princess suddenly became happy, and it was even more pleasing to the eye when she looked at Li Luo.
"Pour a glass of wine for Li Siyi!" The queen immediately rewarded Li Luo with drinking, and called Li Luo's official position for the first time.
"Isn't this pai gow played by four people?" The queen couldn't wait to shout: "Che Xin, Yin Hou, you two come up!" ”
When the two got in the car and understood the rules of the game, they were surprised and delighted.
Speaking of which, they are also addicted to gambling. They have played all kinds of games, what is the flutter, shake money, dice...... However, how can there be a game of play, and this pai gow is fun?
When they knew that this pai gow was actually invented by Li Luo, the two began to admire Li Luo for the first time.
Awesome, amazing, this Li Langjun can not only please the princess, but also invent such a great thing as pai gow, you can make friends!
If Li Luo knew about these two ministers who were named in the history books, he felt that he could make friends, and he didn't know how to feel.
Soon, the three of them tried to play two games under the guidance of Li Luo.
Then, just stop.
Of course, it's not that you don't play, but you have to set the lottery. There is no bet on this, and no matter how good the game is, it is not beautiful.
"I'm out ...... One ranch can raise 300 horses! The Mongolian Yinhou said.
Che Xin thought for a while, "I'll build a 3,000-acre manor!" ”
Li Luo said: "I will produce ten gems!" ”
When Che Xin heard this, he couldn't help but smile and said: "Li Siyi, our manor and horse farm are all real. Ten of your gems...... What a gem, we haven't seen it. ”
To be honest, Che Xin's doubts are really not too much. What kind of gems, ten can be exchanged for 3,000 acres of estate?
Li Luo had already prepared, he took out a blue chalcedony, and said with a smile: "Are these ten gems worthy of Brother Che's manor?" ”
Che Xin and Yin Hou Ke have both seen the world, and they don't know how many jewels they have seen, but this blue gem still makes their eyes straighten all of a sudden.
What kind of gemstone is this?
Even the queen was attracted by the blue chalcedony in Li Luo's hand. With her respect as a princess of Dayuan, she has never seen such a blue blurred gem.
This is not surprising. There is no such thing as blue chalcedony, which is still available in the Central Plains and Goryeo. Kublai Khan never saw it.
Rare is expensive, and this gem is worth a lot!
Li Luo was amused in his heart, and he hurriedly offered this egg-sized blue chalcedony to the queen: "This thing is called Blue Crystal, and Weichen would like to present it to the princess." ”
The queen took the blue chalcedony and liked it very much. This Li Luo is really sensible.
"This azurite is very precious, ten of them combined, enough to be worth three thousand acres of manor." The queen said conclusively.
"After this, a merchant token will be issued for a period of one year." The queen smiled and groaned, and was very cheerful.
Taking power as a bet doesn't cost a penny, but it's her usual trick.
Che Xin and Yin Hou smiled bitterly in their hearts. The princess's merchant token is actually very valuable. There are tokens in hand, smuggling, slave trading, mining, coinage, ginseng, pearl diving, sea trade...... It's all right.
But the problem is, they already have it. Even if there is one more token, it is also chicken ribs.
This is also the reason why they deliberately lose to the princess every time. Because, even if you win, there is no substantial benefit. It's better to lose to her.
Li Luo was moved, he wanted Princess Dayuan's business token more than the manor and ranch.
In this way, he will buy war horses and transport migrants, and there will be no obstacles. As long as the operation is good, many things can be done under the banner of the princess.
The lottery was set, and the four of them officially began.
After more than an hour, the four of them temporarily stopped.
Not only Che Xin and Yin Hou, but also the queen, looking at Li Luo's eyes at this time, they were all a little unkind.
Because, the person who eats it all is Li Luo.
He won Yinhou's ranch, Che Xin's manor, and also won the merchant token of Princess Dayuan.
But he wasn't worried that the queen would turn her face. Because he knew that the queen was actually having a good time, even if she lost.
