Chapter 899: The King's Incident (5)

The power of the "three marquis" can be described by the power of the government and the opposition, Bailiyan controls almost all the most profitable industries and technical resources, Luhou and Xuanting control half of the civil chemical and financial industries, Zhao Xun and Lu Gao have a clear position, and the rights cover almost every corner, in addition to the military power, the financial power and the political power have long been sidelined, and the king of Xian knows it, but he is very open-minded, knowing that he will win over the main forces by blood relations and hold the military power in his hands to keep all the rights loyal to him.

But the crown prince is different, as the saying goes, once the son of heaven is a courtier, even if the prince ascends the throne can not change the existing cabinet situation, it is impossible to be willing to accept the constraints of the existing cabinet system, often change the authority over time, set up his own small cabinet, bypass the central cabinet to exercise royal power, and even do not rule out making the current cabinet an ornament, and the cabinet decision right will be discussed in the name of the court, which will be very troublesome.

The current cabinet system was a temporary measure taken by King Xian to shorten the decision-making process at the beginning of the Black Turban Rebellion, which has since become the norm, but not the rule. There are also very few monarchs who are directly arbitrary by the cabinet without the consent of foreign courts, so in most cases the decisions of the cabinet still need to be discussed by foreign courts.

Bailiyan is not worried about problems in the inner court, but more worried about the outer court.

If the prince introduces it into the foreign court, he will set up a false cabinet in the future and reuse the foreign court, and the result can only be who has the loudest voice and who fart loudly, and if he is not careful, he will be taken advantage of by the prince.

However, to promote the monarchical cabinet system, King Xian knew very well that the crown prince was incompetent, and he might eventually be reduced to the shogunate system, and the power of the country would fall into the hands of his relatives, and King Xian would never agree, so it was already a dilemma.

The economic reform has been successful, but the education reform has not yet fed back to the political system to promote political reform, and the oppression of realpolitik has no chance to continue to delay political reform, so the final result can only be a profoundly adjusted productive forces, unable to reconcile the connection between the old and new production relations, triggering a struggle for power, and even a civil war.

The princelings want to seize the fruits of political reform and reap the existing dividends, and the three marquis led by Bai Liyan want to make the current cake bigger and benefit more people, while keeping the existing achievements. Before, it was the life of his Baili Yange family, and now it is finally the turn of the restoration forces to reform his life.

Even though he clearly knows that change will inevitably be accompanied by ups and downs, when this moment really falls on his head, only he knows the mixed tastes.

The horse race was held for five rounds, and at the end of the race, Wei Qi calculated all the benefits of the five races:

"Master Hou, I have a total of thirty-five yuan."

Zhou Kong was taken aback when he heard the news:

"How can there be so many, isn't it that you bet on all five games!"

"Nope." Wei Qi hurriedly replied, and then said: "There is only one bet on the right one, ten bets, three .5 times the odds, and the rest is not accurate, in short, Hou Ye's rules are very strange, it seems that every bet on several horses, every time you can make some money." ”

Zhou Kong couldn't understand how Bai Liyan manipulated the gambling ticket, so he asked:

"How do you get it, what do you do with so many horses per game?"

"Huh...... It's a secret, and it's not interesting to say it. ”

Zhou Kong's face was straight, and he asked solemnly:

"You didn't make people do it!"

"How is it possible, for the sake of dozens of dollars, can you cheat for your husband."

"Then you say, how do you get it?"

Speaking of betting on horses, there are actually some tricks, the rules of betting on horses seem to be fair, in fact, they are unfair, if there is no tandem between the rider's back, competing to play their own level, there is a probability of winning the horse.

Theoretically, the owner will buy the best horses he can find, after all, they are also profitable, and naturally they will not cheat themselves. Therefore, after specifying the breed of horse, theoretically the difference in strength between horses of the same class is not very large, and the rest depends on the rider's performance and the horse's condition potential.

In addition, the performance of horses is determined by climate, health, injuries, feed differences and mood, personality, etc., because the above links vary from person to person, so all horses even if the performance is roughly the same, in fact, is not the same, so each horse is destined to have its own unique exercise physiological curve, and finally reflect the probability of the formation of horses on the field.

Once the probability of a result is formed and maintained, it will not fluctuate too much in a relatively short period of time, so only the four or five horses with the highest probability of winning each Marseille game need to be placed.

Based on the current rules of the competition, it is only necessary to calculate the probability of winning each horse, and place different bet multiples and rankings, which can basically guarantee that there will be no loss, and the rest can earn less depending on the character.

Of course, provided that there are no human distractions and extreme contingencies, this method of betting on horses can be tried and tested.

At dusk, a two-story bustling restaurant in the royal family's city, Zhaoyang Jun Hue sat and waited in the private room, and Mick was late for a while.

"Why did Brother Xian come, can the person surnamed Wei hear clearly?"

Nahue asked anxiously, but Mick was a little angry:

"I didn't know, I didn't know if I didn't ask, but I found out that I fell for the thief when I inquired."

Hue didn't hear it right, and hurriedly asked:

"Fooled, what to be fooled, the general of the town army can still be fake."

"This thief is bold, I ordered someone to inquire in detail, there is no general surnamed Wei in the town army."

Hue was shocked when he heard the news:

"What, there is no general surnamed Wei. But that talisman doesn't look like it's fake, doesn't he want to die? ”

"Hmph." Mick snorted angrily, stepped on the round stool with one leg and said, "Brother Ling Fu has seen it or I have seen it, there are countless liars in this world, who knows if it is not a group of liars." ”

"This won't be, I ordered someone to keep an eye on that group of people, and finally lived in Huang Che's annex, and in addition to eight people, there were more than a dozen people, all of whom rode horses that were more than a head taller than people, and they must be the world's BMW thousands of miles away."

Hearing this, Mick's pupils shrank, and his face suddenly became suspicious:

"Brother's people are not mistaken, a horse is still rare, how can it be that more than 20 masters and servants ride a thousand mile leap."

"Surely yes, if the other horses can be mistaken, the horse's back is clearly a head taller than a man, and the horse's hooves are as big as a head, what kind of horse can it be except for a thousand miles of leaping. And it is not easy to live in Huang Che's annex, if it is a daring liar, how dare Huang Che tolerate it. ”

"Shhh...... In this way, this group of people still has a background, but how can I hear that his accent is not like the accent of Chenling, and why should he be mysterious? ”

Don't look at this because Mick is lazy and gives people a harmless appearance, but thinking about it, it is actually much stronger than Zhaoyang Jun. After thinking for a moment, Mick's eyes lit up:

"Huang Che, that old guy, relied on the support of the Marquis of Yongxing, and wanted the wind and rain to be in the royal city, and secretly did some unsightly things. In my opinion, it is better to go back to him tomorrow and see where this group of people is coming from. ”

"Huang Che is not provoked, he was a water bandit in his early years, and later he was a rebel, and he was also very domineering after being attached, and he was annoyed, I am afraid that there is no need for Yongxing Hou to come forward, those rebel generals and affiliated troops will have enough for us, I think it is better to count."

"Why, my brother is scared. Huang Che has been entrenched in the king's family for many years, and all the benefits are taken by him. Seeing that the crown prince is about to ascend the throne, the time has come to change the sky, Huang Che's good days will come to an end sooner or later, you and I will not come out today, and we will be taken out by others in the future. What's more, Huang Che is a mud leg, what is so scary. ”

"Having said that, if you provoke the Marquis of Yongxing......" Hu Ai said this, vaguely thinking of something, and said in a flash: "Brother Xian, don't say it, I think of it, there is a woman behind the surname Wei, and the scar on the left side of her face is extremely ugly. I heard that the eighth lady of Yongxing Hou also has a scar on her face, could it be that they are Yongxing Hou! ”

"No way." Mick denied, and then said: "Bailiyan is busy with government affairs, and I don't know how many times a year I come to the royal palace, how can I have time to spend half a day gambling on horses." If he is a hundred miles of swallow, why not show his true body. ”

"But the fierceness on the woman's face was not fake."

"How did I hear that Bailiyan's eighth lady has a scar on the right side of her face, and that person claims to be surnamed Wei, how can the eldest husband change his surname."

Mick said that the head is the Tao, in fact, it is not bad, the eldest husband has no reason to change his surname. But Mick mostly didn't know that Bailiyan had used the pseudonym "Wei Xian" to walk the rivers and lakes before, and the last time the name "Wei Xian" appeared was in the winter of the Southern Expedition eighteen years ago, and Bailiyan had never used the name "Wei Xian" since then, so Bailiyan did have the surname Wei.

At that time, Mick and Hue had just learned to walk, so where could they know this.

As for whether the scar on Zhou Kong's face is on the left or the right, this is a matter of opinion. Relative to Zhou Kong himself, the scar was on the left side of his face. But the scar is relative to the right side of the eye.

So it's not important to be on the right side or on the right side, the important thing is that the two sons have mastered the key information, but the political sensitivity is inevitably too bad.

The next day, Bai Liyan and Zhou Kong set off early in the morning, and the markets along the way were already open in the morning, and the crowds were frequent. The curfew was lifted in different places in Lingling and Yongxing for many years, and the curfew was still implemented in the middle of the night, which was one and a half hours less than that of other counties, and the key curfew time was concentrated in the three hours between the fourth quarter of the hour and the last hour of the ugly hour.

The nature of the royal capital is destined to be much worse in the local security, the number of thieves in the city is more than three times that of the tomb, if there is no curfew at night, these thieves will be even more rampant, and even because of burglary into burglary, and even murder.

If the time frame of the gangster's crime is framed in the daytime, the thief does not dare to be blatant, and the action is more and more extremely careful, and it is almost rare to cause a murder because of the daytime.

Of course, if you want to commit a crime sincerely, you can't stop it even if you kill your head, but after all, the deterrent of curfews is still there.

Because of the curfew in the early hours of the night, the city could not be open 24 hours a day, and after the local merchants and hawkers closed overnight, they had to rush early the next day, and the sky was just dawning, and there were many more pedestrians on the road than in the city.
