Chapter 38: The Palace
Wu Da and Qiu Ju each retreated, looked at the source of the sound, and saw a middle-aged man with a beard like a halberd walking out of the back hall, his eyes were like electricity, and he was followed by the minion who had just run away.
The middle-aged man walked up to Wu Da and gave him a slap, Chen Siye was taken aback, and said in his heart Who is this? Why is it so hanging?
Wu Da didn't dare to resist, but he was unconvinced: "Father-in-law! Why hit me! ”
The middle-aged man asked no one to go out, and then pointed to his nose, as if he was very angry, "I let you be in charge of the Seven Star Gambling House, see what kind of management you make, and dare to make a thousand?" Who borrowed your guts? You know that this gambling house is the property of the county lord, and you dare to hit the head of the county lord's personal maid, what do you want to do? Rebellion?! ”
Wu said hatefully: "Father-in-law! This seven-star gambling house is your industry, and that little girl will occupy the magpie's nest without a slight, I can't bear this breath! ”
The middle-aged man hit him in the face with a "snap" again, and said angrily: "You know a fart!" ”
Chen Siye was dumbfounded when he heard this, and looked at the rest of the people, what? This gambling house is actually Le Xuan's industry? You heard it right....
At this time, the middle-aged man seemed to be a little angry, turned his head and smiled at Chen Siye and the others: "A few people have laughed, in Xia Wu Deli, I am the shopkeeper of this seven-star gambling house." ”
Chen Siye frowned and said, "What the hell is going on?" ”
Wu Deli explained: "In fact, this seven-star gambling house is one of the properties under the name of the county lord, and it is really a big flood that washed the Dragon King Temple, and the family does not recognize the family. "It seems that the little minion just now has explained to him all the causes and consequences.
On the side, Xiao Tao was dissatisfied: "What do you mean?" What do you say about the money we just won, and my dad's severed hand? ”
Wu Deli said with a smile: "This is the little peach girl next to the county lord." As he spoke, he walked over and grabbed Qin Laosan's hand and said, "Little Peach Girl, Third Brother Qin, it's all a misunderstanding, this beast does such a thing, I won't spare him." ”
Qin Laosan was flattered and didn't dare to say anything.
Wu Deli turned his head to Wu Da Leng and said, "Brute! From this day on, you and I will be cut off by grace. You cut off your own arm, and then kowtow to Third Brother Qin to admit your mistake, and that's it! ”
After speaking, he turned his head to look at Qin Laosan, "Third Brother Qin, are you satisfied?" Qin Laosan was shocked and didn't know how to answer.
However, Chen Siye was very satisfied, he had already seen that Wu Da was not pleasing to the eye, he was too arrogant, and it was just right for him to become a lost dog. So Dai Qin Laosan replied: "If you are satisfied, you will do it." But there is also that Zhang Botou, who caused my father-in-law to become like this, and I can't let him go. ”
Wu Deli nodded and said, "It should be so." Then he called another of his men and told him to bring the head of the blog.
After the order was finished, he saw Wu Da still looking at him in disbelief, and said with a cold face: "What? Do you want me to do it myself? ”
Wu Da is also a ruthless person, glared at a few people fiercely, and then raised his hand and hit his left arm hard, only to hear a clear sound of bone cracking and then a scream of pain, Chen Siye got goosebumps when he heard this voice. Wu Da endured the pain and walked over and kowtowed to Qin Laosan, and then went straight out of the door, without saying a word the whole time.
Chen Siye didn't sympathize with him at all, he just asked for himself, and he didn't pinch the soft persimmon and kicked it to the iron plate.
Wu Deli watched Wu Da walk out of the door before saying, "Who has brought the Five Honors Order of His Royal Highness the County Lord, can you lend me a look?" ”
Qiu Ju took out a sign and handed it to him, and Wu Deli also took out a piece and handed it to Qiu Ju, and the two checked each other before returning it to each other. Chen Siye looked inexplicable, and he didn't know what the hell this five honors order was, how his heart was like a cult organization, and he had to check each other's identities.
After reading the token, Wu Deli came over and took Qin Laosan's hand again, took out two pieces of paper from his arms, put them in Qin Laosan's hand, and said with a smile: "Little Peach Girl and Qin Sange, don't be surprised, these two hundred taels of silver tickets will be used as compensation, and the beast has been driven away just now, and I hope the two of you will not be upset." ”
After speaking, he took out a few more sheets, walked up to Chen Siye and said: "This little brother has superb gambling skills, but he is all working for the county lord, the silver of this gambling house cannot be moved, I will take out 500 taels of private money to show atonement, I hope to forgive me." ”
Although Chen Siye was not very satisfied, it was better than nothing, he accepted the silver ticket and looked at the eighty taels of silver on the table and asked, "Then I won these eighty taels of silver, I want to take it." ”
Wu Deli's smile was a little stiff, and he nodded: "Naturally, naturally." ”
At this time, the subordinate he sent out just now came back, walked up to him and whispered, Wu Deli frowned and waved his hand to let him out, and then said: "That Zhang Botou got the news, and I don't know where he went." But don't worry, Third Brother Qin, I will definitely arrest him and bring him back to you to make amends. ”
Since they are so sincere, and when it comes to this, Chen Siye and the others naturally can't say anything anymore, so they can only leave.
When he went out, Chen Siye asked Xiao Tao: "Xiao Tao, don't you know that Sister Le Xuan still has these industries?" ”
Xiao Tao shook her head, "Miss didn't tell me this, I just do my part." "It seems that Le Xuan has a lot of secrets.
asked Qiu Ju again: "Sister Qiu Ju, what was the Five Honors Order just now?" ”
"Don't ask if you shouldn't know."
Chen Siye pursed his lips, didn't say anything, and came to his father-in-law's side for a while.
Qin Laosan's face was moved, "Virtuous son-in-law, this time is really thanks to you, don't worry, I will definitely marry Xiao Tao to you." ”
Xiao Tao turned a deaf ear, but didn't hear it. Qiu Ju on the side was surprised when she heard this, and she didn't know what happened when she was away.
The three of them sent Qin Laosan back together, because Xiao Tao didn't go home all the year round, naturally there was no place for her to live at home, so she could only go back to the inn to live.
As soon as the three of them walked out of the door, they heard Xiao Tao say: "Chen Siye, thanks to you this time, I will remember your kindness, but don't be delusional that I will marry you." ”
Qiu Juqi said: "Why did your father say that he wanted to marry you to him just now?" ”
Xiao Tao said angrily: "It's not that he took advantage of the fire to rob and coax my father, my father was confused, so he said that he wanted me to marry him." ”
Qiu Ju covered her mouth and said, "I think you marry him, and the two of you are quite compatible." ”
Xiao Tao said shyly: "Qiu Ju! Say no more! I swore that I would never marry again in my life, just like Miss. ”
Chen Siye on the side finally couldn't help it, and said: "Hey, I said, I'm too nonexistent, why don't you ask my opinion." ”
Qiu Ju and Xiao Tao said at the same time, "What is your opinion?" "Shut up!"
"I just want to sing a song," Chen Siye sang to himself, "Listen to Dad, don't let him get hurt...."
"What a broken word...""I don't understand!" In the two women's complaints, Chen Siye felt a trace of warmth.
......
Early the next morning, Xiao Tao took the two of them to Zhennan Wangfu, Xiao Tao came out of here, the guards in front of the door all recognized her, and they all looked surprised when they saw her, so they naturally wouldn't stop her, so Xiao Tao went straight into the house and went to report.
And Chen Siye and Qiu Ju didn't have this treatment, so they could only wait outside the house.
I can only look at the gate of the palace, which covers a wide area, the size of five rooms in an ordinary person's house, and has five rooms and three doors, that is, a total of three pairs of doors, and two rooms on both sides. The roof is covered with green glazed tiles, and the roof ridge is also equipped with a kissing beast, which is said to be something that ordinary people can't install.
There were many brass nails on the six gates, and he counted them, and there were sixty-three brass nails on each door, and when he counted them, he realized why he had just forgotten to multiply. There is also a pair of male and female stone lions in front of the door, tall and mighty, more magnificent than the county lord's mansion.
After waiting for a while, Xiao Tao came out and told them not to look around when they entered the palace, and the inside was heavily guarded, so he led them inside. Chen Siye was timid, and when he entered the palace, he didn't dare to look around, for fear that the guards would cut him down, so he followed Xiao Taoyan's nose and nose all the way in, and when he entered the main hall, he dared to raise his head slightly and glance forward, only to see a middle-aged man with the appearance of a scholar and a middle-aged woman with a still good appearance sitting in the middle of the main hall, and a maid standing on each side.
Xiao Tao whispered: "Why don't you meet the princess and princess?" ”
Hearing this, the two of them hurriedly bowed: "Xiao Yezi/Qiu Ju, meet the princess and princess." Chen Siye didn't have any psychological pressure, so he should kowtow to his future father-in-law and mother-in-law.
"No need to be polite, please get up quickly!" The prince's voice is gentle, which makes people feel good when they hear it.
The two stood up, and Xiao Tao said on the side: "Lord Wang, princess, this is Xiao Yezi Chen Siye and Qiu Ju, Qiu Ju's martial arts are strong, and we can only reach Yongning Mansion safely by escorting us all the way." Chen Siye is the one who paints. ”
