In the middle of the night, the north wind was howling, the heavens and the earth were frozen, and the cold inside and outside the imperial city was pressing.

Just when the Chongzhen Yangxin Palace summoned the loyal ministers to discuss in the middle of the night, the royal horse prison in the northeast corner of the palace was brightly lit, lively and extraordinary, although the weather was cold, the enthusiasm of everyone was undiminished, at least more than 200 people gathered here, including some palace maids.

Needless to say, the underground boxing match has fermented in just one afternoon, and has become the hottest topic of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, I have heard of the big internal guards trying their fists and feet, but I have never heard of eunuchs playing this kind of game, and they can even bet, so novel, exciting entertainment activities are quickly too attractive, and it is crowded in front of the imperial horse eunuch just after ten o'clock.

First, the Imperial Horse Supervisor is relatively remote, and the Imperial Horse Supervisor and the elephant landlord are leaning on the Imperial City Root, which is relatively secretive, and secondly, considering that there are more spectators, a larger venue is needed, and the Imperial Horse Supervisor has a grass fence field, which is a grassland used to raise horses and walk horses in the palace on weekdays, and there are stables and grain and grass warehouses inside, and it can be used as a competition venue when it is cleaned up, and it is always impossible to play outside on this cold day.

The last reason is that the Imperial Horse Supervisor has a relationship with the guard, which is a thigh and an information channel to attract investment.

Because there were many onlookers for a while, and due to the lack of preparation in a hurry, Wang Dehua and others finally decided to limit the flow and only allowed more than 200 people to enter, and the rest regretted leaving.

More than 200 people filled a temporarily emptied warehouse, leaving a small open space enclosed with ropes in the middle, and there was the ring.

In front of the ring, there were several tables and chairs, which were the positions of the referee and a few eunuchs, and next to them was a larger table, and several eunuchs were busy cashiering and placing bets.

Rules: Free fighting, but limited to flirting with yin and gouging out the eyes and hitting the back of the head.

Winning and losing referee criteria: KO, TKO, or the opponent takes the initiative to admit defeat, or calculates the winner by points in the half-pillar incense, these are all customized by Chang Yu and Wang Decai and others, and the referees on the first night are also a few of them.

Because it was the first game, it was equivalent to an exhibition match, and the contestants were selected by each of the eight eunuchs in the hall, plus Chunxiang, who was recommended by Chang Yu, a total of nine people competed for supremacy.

The most exciting thing for everyone is the competition system, although it is a nine-person tournament, the audience can bet on the players they like at will, but at the same time, they can also participate in person, for example, if you think you can do which player can be challenged, if you win a game of silver two taels, lose a silver tael, win two games and so on, but each player is limited to three games per night, if you win all three games, the extra bonus is ten taels.

Winning or losing has money to earn, pie from the sky, and immediately there are many people ready to move.

Now Chunxiang and the other eight people lined up in a beat, tight-fitting singles stood in the middle of the rope circle to draw lots, because according to the competition system can not be wheel battles, so the first draw to pick out a lucky person directly into the second round of the top five players, the other eight people to fight each other to grab the other four places.

Chunxiang is not short, about seven or eight meters, but it is a little thin compared with those eight people, after all, there are more than 8,000 eunuchs in the palace, many of whom are tall, and in order to fire the first shot, those eunuchs in the hall naturally picked the big ones to play, so that Chunxiang is inconspicuous.

But this does not affect his popularity, and there are really a lot of bets for him, because there are well-informed people who are the best friends of Chang Gonggong, who is the most proficient in fighting among the eunuchs.

After the draw was completed, Chunxiang took the shit luck and directly entered the second round, exiting the ring and watching the eight people snatch the place, but he didn't bet on anyone, including Jiang Quan and others, even if Chang Yu gave them twenty taels of bets before leaving.

At the beginning of the game, four pairs took turns to fight on stage, and the scene was extremely intense, but there was no excitement.

But at least it's much more exciting than Chang Yu, at least that's what the audience in this era thinks, fighting, there must be a process to see it, and before people's eyes blinked, you turned people over, what's so exciting......

"How? Are you sure? Chunxiang looked very seriously, and Jiang Quan asked loudly in his ear, because the surrounding crowd was too excited, screaming, shouting, roaring, and his head hurt.

Chunxiang's face was solemn and he didn't answer immediately, after looking at two rounds, those big guys were extremely fierce although they were disorganized, although they didn't have any moves, they were whirring and windy, and their power should not be underestimated.

These big guys are generally engaged in the lowest level of hard work in the palace, and now they are naturally desperate when they hear that they can make money with their strength, because the biscuits that Wang Dehua and others painted for them are really tempting, and if they win, they don't have to do those lowly jobs, and they can earn a year's worth of silver in one night......

The top three soon blossomed and came to fruition, and the eight people competed with all the colors on their faces regardless of whether they won or lost, and the serious ones were already blue and swollen, and the victors had a smile on their faces, but Chunxiang's heart sank, because they were all big guys, and sure enough, the greater the tonnage, the higher the winning rate.

Take a break

The second round finally started, the atmosphere in the warehouse was high, and everyone began to bet again, this time Chunxiang was not so lucky to draw lots and directly entered the third round, he was going to play.

Jiang Quan and the four younger brothers around him decided after a little discussion, no matter whether they win or lose tonight, they will only bet on Chunxiang, there is no other reason, cheer up! Besides, Chang Yu left the twenty taels of silver, which is not what he meant.

But after all, Chunxiang played for the first time, and everyone didn't know the depth, so one person took out two taels and pressed them, and helped Chang Yu to press five taels of silver and then concentrate on the game.

Chunxiang's opponent is a fat man of 185, nicknamed King Kong.

In fact, it's just a fat dun, although Chunxiang is very nervous, he doesn't forget Chang Yu's advice in his heart, don't get close in the face of the behemoth, don't fight, and move.

Three minutes later, in the crazy cheers of Jiang Quan and others, Chunxiang won the first victory in his life, although it was very hard and dangerous, but after all, he won it, he knelt on the ground and covered his face with his hands without wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth.

Chunxiang's instant push the heat of the game to the highest, after all, he is the apprentice of Chang Gonggong, who is the best at fighting in the Internal Affairs Office, and he is the smallest one among the players, so the attention is naturally high, so when he wins, the field is boiling.

"Oshiharu Father-in-law ......"

"Those big guys are just vain, and I'm remanding my father-in-law."

Chunxiang soon became a popular player, and after his emotions calmed down, he gradually gained confidence on his face, not as melancholy as he had just now.

If you're in the top three, you'll only need to play one game if you're lucky

"Is Chunxiang sure?" Jiang Quan and the others now belong to the kind of people who are hot and want to play in person.

Chunxiang nodded vigorously: "Bet, tonight our family not only wants to make a name for themselves, but also has to make a profit."

After the draw was completed, Chunxiang stepped on the shit again and was directly runner-up.

When Chang Yu returned to the celebrant eunuch, it was almost six o'clock in the morning, he was extremely annoyed, and swore that he would never want to serve the emperor on night duty again in the future, it was simply not a human sin.

Jiu Hantian waited outside the hall like that, so cold that he was suffocating, and for the first time in his life, he realized the original meaning of the word hunger and cold.

Under normal circumstances, after the emperor rests at about two o'clock in the morning, the eunuchs and palace maids can go to rest, but last night Chongzhen and the crown prince muttered and summoned important ministers into the palace overnight to face the saint, and in the blink of an eye, it was the minister's morning shift time.

In ancient times, the morning shift of civil servants was very hard, and they had to queue up outside the noon gate at three o'clock, and the emperor would also get up at this time, and generally held a morning meeting at Qianqingmen from four to five o'clock, and the future generations would be content.

Chongzhen's unprecedented order today: Today is not early.

However, even so, Chang Yu still stood outside the hall until five o'clock before returning to the shift change.

When I arrived at the dormitory of the celebrant superintendent, I fell asleep, and when I woke up again, it was already noon, and Chang Yu, who felt dizzy, secretly sighed that staying up late was too hurtful.

But when he opened his eyes and saw the expressions of several people standing in front of the window, he had a hunch that not only would he hurt his vitality, but he might also have to get angry.

The hunch was very accurate, when Chunxiang and Jiang Quan, who had a blue nose and swollen face, finished telling the ins and outs of the matter, he roared angrily, jumped out of bed and kicked several people in a row, three hundred taels of silver, and went bankrupt!

Yes, Chunxiang lost, in the final of the championship and runner-up, Chunxiang, who was 100% sure, let Jiang Quan put all the money on it, and all six people saved more than 300 taels.

Chunxiang's self-confidence is for a reason, although he only fights one game, and his actual combat experience is not enough, but his vision is there, these big guys rely on brute force and Wang Baquan, they don't know how to defend and have no effective offensive means, although they only hold on to Chang Yu temporarily, it is not very difficult to deal with these people, and more importantly, he has walked two shit lucks, and his physical strength is much more refined than those big guys.

"That person is very shameless, he has been running in circles, and he doesn't dare to fight against our family......" Chunxiang felt extremely aggrieved, but was scolded by Chang Yu: "What is shameless, that is called tactics, people's physical strength is not as good as yours, but their brains are a hundred times better than you"

To tell the truth, Chang Yu didn't think about letting Chunxiang take the first place at first, he just pulled him out for actual combat training, but he didn't expect these guys to lose all their fortunes, gambling is harmful!

"Except for Jiang Quan, a few of you each have three hundred push-ups, thirty times of military body boxing, who dares to be lazy, don't blame me for being unkind" Chang Yu was furious!

Jiang Quan was a little flattered, he was actually looked at differently by Chang Yu.

"If you play tonight, if you don't enter the top three, I will beat you until you can't get out of bed for three days" Chang Yu's next cold eyes made Jiang Quan's eyes black and he almost fell headlong.

After lunch, Chang Yu was giving one-on-one guidance to Jiang Quan in a corner of the celebrant courtyard, and Jiang Quan, who knew that the consequences of tonight's game would be terrible, did not dare to be distracted and study very seriously.

"Hey, Father-in-law Chang is opening a small stove here" A voice sounded, Chang Yu turned his head to look, but it was Wang Lian.

Wang Lian's eyes were a little dark, his expression was sluggish, and even the smile on his face could be seen to be a forced smile, because this kid also lost miserably last night, saying that the crotch of his pants that followed Chunxiang last night was leaking, and Chunxiang was now secretly cursed like a rat crossing the street.

"Hey, the prince is good" Looking at Wang Lian's strong smile, Chang Yu quipped: "I sent it last night"

"Hair TMD...... Hey" Wang Lianqiang endured his calm emotions and didn't scold, and sighed: "Father-in-law Chang will ask you to carry more in the future"

Chang Yu was stunned for a moment, he didn't know what he was talking about, was it because he was close to the eight eunuchs in the hall, this kid wanted to climb me, it's unlikely, this guy is Wang Dehua's brother and brother, and it is said that he is also one of Wang Chengen's henchmen.

"Congratulations to Chang Gonggong" Wang Lian looked at Chang Yu's expression and smiled slightly: "You are now from the Prince's Mansion"

"What did the prince say?"

Chang Yu was stunned in his heart, the relationship between him and the prince was by no means simple, but it was impossible for outsiders to know what this person's words meant.

"The prince personally asked you to go to the prince's mansion to serve, this is rare" Wang Lian looked at Chang Yu with envy.

Chang Yu was stunned for a moment, and then he knew that there was inside, and secretly laughed that the prince was a child after all, and he couldn't hold his breath, generally this kind of eunuchs who are close to the palaces are the people of the imperial eunuchs, and there are almost no people who directly appoint someone and cross departments, although the imperial eunuch is also in charge of the celebrant eunuch, but it is too deliberate to do so, and it will attract the attention of people with a heart.

But fortunately, the prince is young, and he has a reputation as a master of fighting, and outsiders may think that the prince is just playful and wants him to leave.

Chang Yu smiled at Wang Lian: "Then our family will live in the Prince's Mansion in the future?" ”

"But no, of course, Father-in-law Chang can come back to live at any time if it's convenient, and the bed of our housekeeper is always reserved for you."

After chatting with Wang Lian for a while, Chang Yu instructed Jiang Quan to exercise hard alone, and then simply pack up and get up and go to the prince's mansion, and he couldn't help but feel funny in his heart, it was like moving three times a day.
