Chapter 147: The Banker

After Cheng Rang left, Cheng Ji showed that he seemed to have some backache.

"Ouch, my old bones." Chengji got up from the bamboo chair and stretched a big lazy waist, Qianyang City has entered late autumn, the sun is just right in the afternoon, and it is warm on the body, Chengji doesn't think so, at this time the sunset is falling, Chengji was surprised to find that it seems to be a lot cooler in the morning and evening.

"Master." It was Xiao Yu who walked over.

In the past, Xiao Yu at this time should have been reading in the study, how could he suddenly come over today.

"Huh?" When Cheng Ji asked the reason, the corners of his mouth also raised a smile, but he looked a little cringe, and he looked a little suspicious of child abduction.

After getting along for so long, Xiao You already knows his master's temperament well, in the end, Cheng Ji even seems a little like a child, Xiao You is gradually no longer so afraid, and Cheng Ji can sometimes joke.

But today's Xiao You didn't seem to be joking, his face was flushed, and Xiao You seemed to be hesitating, whether he should open his mouth.

Cheng Ji saw the struggle in her heart at the moment, so he was relieved:

"If there's anything, just ask."

Hearing this, Xiao You's eyes finally became firm and then clear, as if he had made up some kind of determination, Xiao You finally dared to speak:

"Master, you lie!"

"I, how did I deceive someone?" Cheng Ji looked at the appearance that there was no one around him, pointed to himself, and Xiao Yuyi nodded more firmly.

When Chengji asked the reason, Xiao Yu became squirming again, and he didn't seem to dare to say it more directly.

"It's okay, you say it." Cheng Ji raised three fingers towards Xiao You:

"The master will never be angry."

With Chengji's guarantee, Xiao Youcai was relieved.

Xiao You said to Cheng Ji:

"Just now, Uncle Eighth Prince, what he said about Uncle Prince, the master will know about it a long time ago."

Because of the recognition of worry-free as his mother-in-law, even Cheng Rang has been promoted by a generation here in Xiaocha, and when he heard Xiaoyou call his uncle for the first time, Cheng Rang was startled.

The adults didn't tell Xiao Yu about the entanglement between the royal family.

Xiao Yubian should think that since the prince and Cheng Rang are both worry-free siblings, it should be nothing for him to call him uncle the same.

Cheng Ji didn't intend to correct the problem of Xiao Yu's title, he squat down and said another thing to Xiao Yu:

"It's, it's a lie."

"Knowing and pretending not to know, of course it's a lie." Xiao Yu's heart has always been sincere, and at this moment he said with great certainty.

"Then when you first met Princess Sanssouci, you said that she was your mother, are you a liar?" Chengji scratched Koyu's nose, but his movements were very gentle, and he smiled.

"I, I have a reason!" Xiao You argued, he obviously had a valid reason, how could he be considered a liar.

"Good, good, you have a reason." These days, Cheng Ji didn't think about asking Xiao You about how Ren Qixiu found them, but every time Xiao You heard such a question, most of them shook their heads, and they were firm that Ren Qixiu was a bad person.

Seeing that he couldn't get Xiao Yu's answer like this, then Chengji gradually gave up.

mentioned again today, Chengji taught Xiao You another lesson in life:

"A lot of things are not something you have to tell other people if you know them, and in the same way, it's not that you know and don't say them, even if it's a lie, you know." Right now, Cheng Ji doesn't want Xiao Yu to know so many things about Langluo City since he was a child.

For Xiao Yu, who has no ability to protect himself, the more he knows, the more likely it is that it is not a good thing.

When his subordinates came to report today, Cheng Ji was teaching Xiao You martial arts, so he didn't mean to avoid it, and he didn't expect Xiao You to take it to heart.

Today, it seems that we should pay more attention in the future.

"Hmm." Xiao Yu nodded, and there seemed to be a little understanding in his eyes.

"You get it." Cheng Ji nodded Xiao Yu's head and asked with a smile.

"Xiao Yu is very smart!" Xiao You covered his head at this time and said dissatisfiedly to Chengji.

"Okay, good, so smart Xiao You told the master what he came to the master for." Cheng Ji still believes at this moment that Xiao You did not deliberately overhear the conversation between himself and Cheng Rang, so it can only be said that Xiao You is still here for other reasons.

"Xiao Yu doesn't quite understand this." Xiao You took out a scroll from his back, although Cheng Ji found a master who specialized in teaching books for Xiao You, but Xiao Yu seemed to prefer to come over and ask Cheng Ji.

"Okay, I'll teach you." Cheng Ji took Xiao Yu's scroll, although there is no one person in this four worlds, there is another person who is trying to grow.

In the middle of the county, the third day.

He was going to leave the day after tomorrow, and the two days of rest were almost empty of his Ren Tingyou, and he was a little idle at the moment.

"Zhang Wen, you go and investigate again." Ren Tingyou said to Zhang Wen.

"Master." At this moment, Zhang Wen was very relieved that he couldn't leave Ren Tingyou, and he stopped talking, not knowing whether he should leave or not.

"It's fine." Ren Tingyou said to Zhang Wen, in this post house, I can still ensure my safety.

And it is.

However, what Zhang Wen was worried about was Ren Qixiu.

Since the news that Ren Tingyou is going to return to Beijing has spread throughout Qianyang City, then Ren Qixiu, logically speaking, should not be so low-key, with his temper, he must try his best not to let Ren Tingyou return to Beijing.

How could he let Ren Tingyou go so easily.

The calm along the way made Zhang Wen even more worried.

But since yesterday, Ren Tingyou has been looking a little worried, and Zhang Wen can only guess that Ren Tingyou is only afraid that he is still unwilling to do anything about the tiger talisman.

That's why I want to take this opportunity to allow myself to explore again.

However, Zhang Wen is not at ease with Tingyou.

Even if he got Ren Tingyou's affirmation, Zhang Wen still laid heavy troops around Ren Tingyou, and then left.

The boundary of this county is not only as big as a county, but also because of the flow of the river, and more plots are encircled.

At this moment, Jiang Guifei, the only one in Ren Tingyou's hands who knew anything about this army, was no longer there, so Ren Tingyou couldn't wait to return to Beijing to investigate.

But now Zhang Wen, where to start.

In this unfamiliar realm, the kind of news that he wants to check is not Zhang Wen's strong point.

After thinking about it, Zhang Wen still thought of a place: the gambling market underneath.

Such a place gambles on everything, and all kinds of shady news come the fastest.

It's easier to find out the location of a gambling house than it is to find out the location of an arcane army.

Amid the uproar of the crowd and all kinds of mist, a man dressed in black and wearing a hat kicked open the door of the casino.

"This man, his temper is not small." A person who looked very tattered from top to bottom, with a thatch in his mouth, shook his legs at Zhang Wen, and said disdainfully at the corner of his mouth.

"I'm gambling for money." Zhang Wen casually threw out an ingot of gold.

This is a bright temptation, the man's attitude immediately changed three hundred and sixty degrees, and he quickly stretched out his sleeves and wiped it on the table, Zhang Wen looked at the table for an unknown time, it was already covered with oil stains, and the cuffs of this little guy were also oil stains.

Anyway, the bench was quite clean, and Zhang Wen sat down.

"Come on, serve tea!" The little guy shouted at this time, and a cup of tea fell in front of Zhang Wen, which was not as good as the good tea that he drank when he followed Ren Tingyou, and there were dragons and snakes mixed here, and Zhang Wen had no intention of entering.

On the other side of the table was another man with a fat head and big ears.

The man's beard was thick, and on his legs, there was a delicate girl.

The girl's appearance should not be bad, but the rouge gouache applied on her face is too thick, and she looks a little unappetizing.

Zhang Wen watched the man kiss the girl the face at this moment, and then let out a loud laugh, which reminded Zhang Wen of the Wang County Guard.

Could it be that Feidi County is rich in such talents?

Zhang Wen thought in his heart, but laughed instead.

This sound fell on the ears of the bearded man opposite, and when he slapped the table, the woman in his arms was startled and shrunk into the man's arms.

"Boy, are you looking down on me?" The man looks like five big and three thick, and when he speaks, whether it is the voice or the content, it looks so rough.

"I can't see you, how can I afford to see you." At this time, Zhang Wen was arrogant in order to attract the attention of others, and to meet the people behind the casino before he could talk about business with him.

"Damn it!" When the man heard this, he slapped the table hard at this moment.

Seeing that the situation was not good, the little girl hurriedly ran to the man's side and comforted:

"Master Biao, he's new here, he doesn't know anything, so I'll take care of you if I offend you."

Then I don't know what treasure the little guy showed to this man named Biao Ye, Biao Ye just wanted to tear Zhang Wen apart, and suddenly became kind.

The woman in Biao Ye's arms also saw it, and at this moment, she secretly sent Qiu Bo towards Ren Tingyou.

Ren Tingyou used his toes to guess that the two of them had just seen the ingot of gold that they had just thrown out casually, and now they were just thinking about how to cheat themselves.

"For the sake of your ignorance when you first arrived, my grandfather can forgive you this time." Biao Ye stretched out his hand at this moment and said quite politely.

"Biao Ye is so generous." The woman in her arms looked at Biao Ye with adoring eyes, but Ren Tingyou could feel that the woman's eyes kept looking towards him.

For the pursuit of the woman in his arms, Biao Ye seems to be very useful.

"However, since you came to the casino and said that you want to gamble, Biao Ye gave you a chance to gamble with Biao Ye, how about it?" Biao Ye is obviously one of the core figures here, and when Biao Ye spoke, other people in the casino unconsciously gathered around, as if they all wanted to watch this scene.

"Okay." That's what Zhang Wen wants.

"Come, you come to the village." Biao Ye pointed casually, but it was the little guy again.

The little girl's eyes became clever at this moment, and others consciously made way for him.

Walked to the dealer position, and the little guy officially announced the start of the game.

Almost everyone is on Biao Ye's side, and Zhang Wen is alone, but he looks a little isolated.

"Boy, you're going to lose." It's not Biao Ye shaking the dice, but the woman in his arms.

Listening to the woman's methods, Zhang Wen could predict that he was afraid that he was not an ordinary person.

It seems that what attracts this biao man is not only the woman's appearance.

"Childe, please." After the woman clasped the color cup in her hand on the table, she raised her hand towards Zhang Wen.
