Chapter 13 The Bet

Emperor Chongzhen was angry again, and a few days passed, and he still didn't see the news that Wu Dalang was arrested, this time he was not only angry, but also angry with a group of people.

Outside Adali had already jumped to his feet and scolded the Ming Dynasty for its inaction, and he couldn't even catch a single person, and the worst thing was that he had to evacuate, so he couldn't see the news that Wu Dalang was captured.

For Adalee, this is what upsets him the most, so many days of waiting, and the result is disappointment?

For this reason, Adali robbed a guard to vent his anger, and finally had to leave, Shengjing's side was already a mess, and he was afraid that he might not miss this opportunity.

"Master, do you think it could be that the court of the Ming Dynasty had something unsavory with Wu Dalang, so he kept claiming that he didn't get anyone?" The subordinates were also unwilling to speak, and at the same time made malicious speculations about the Ming Dynasty court.

It's not that Adali hasn't thought about it, but now he is short of manpower, and he can neither attack the city, nor dare to go too far, in case of a counterattack, he may not dare to get out.

In the end, they were so unwilling, but they also had to leave.

"Search the whole capital for me, don't let everyone go, there is only one day, I must catch this Wu Dalang!" Chongzhen was even more anxious, the Tartars withdrew, this is a fact, then the city gate will be opened, and now it can only be covered up with the excuse that the Tartars did not retreat too far.

But this excuse can only last for one day, after all, the capital has been besieged for a few days, and many materials in the city are insufficient, so they need to come in from the outside, so this time Emperor Chongzhen roared directly at these ministers.

Wu Dalang not only has some deep hatred with the imperial court, but also the significance of catching Wu Dalang is even more significant.

This night, the capital is full of chickens and dogs, not only all the catchers are dispatched, because the Tartars retreat, and the guards can also join the search.

Some inns and other places have been searched several times in the past few days, especially tonight, the official on the front foot has just left, and the officer and soldier on the back foot have come to the door, and then there are Ouchi's men and horses, and they have not stopped all night.

Emperor Chongzhen also didn't close his eyes all night, because he didn't believe that Wu Dalang would suddenly disappear, so with such strength, Wu Dalang must have no place to hide, so he thought that he could get the news of Wu Dalang being ambushed several times.

But until dawn, except for Wang Chengen's persuasion, there was no other news.

"A bunch of wine bags and rice bags, what do I want them for? Not a single person can be caught! "Emperor Chongzhen is already very disappointed in the people below.

When the time came to the morning, the people learned that today was the day of the opening of the city gates, so they waited here early, but not only an hour late.

The gates of the capital, large and small, are full of people, including those in the palace, the brocade guards, and the people and horses of the Beijing camp, which are densely blocked at the door, as if facing a great enemy.

If you want to go out, you have to go through several strict inspections before you can finally get out, during which a pair of eagle-like eyes constantly scan for any suspicious person.

But this makes many people think that the day when there can be a harvest is destined to be nothing.

Wu Dalang was as if he had never appeared in the capital.

"This huge capital has been turned back and forth several times, isn't it that this Tartar deliberately deceived him, and this Wu Dalang didn't enter the city at all?" Some people couldn't help but question it for a long time, and now even the important ministers of the court are spread like this.

Because of this strength, not to mention a big living person, even a foreign rat can't hide.

However, what everyone can't imagine is that Wu Dalang is still in the capital now, and not only is he not hiding, but on the contrary, he is still living a life of dogs and horses, and his daily life is not comfortable, even if it is these several searches in the capital, he is safe and sound.

"This Dou Gongzi is really a wonderful person, if I hadn't met him this time, I wouldn't know how boring it would have been these days." The son of the Hubu Shangshu, the four juns of the capital who have just been assessed now, said with emotion.

"Yes, this person is both civil and military, I just let Jiading try it, and his theory is really right, I really don't know what his brain thinks, and he can still think of so many unbelievable ideas."

This Dou Gongzi is not from the capital, but from Liaodong to do business, and as a result, the capital is under martial law, so he can only stay here, but this person is extraordinary.

At first, everyone was bored, and they inevitably wanted to have some fun, but as a result, this gentleman naturally entered everyone's eyes.

almost got into a fight because it was not pleasing to the eye, and then it smelled like, after all, this circle is not big, but it is not small, someone acts as a peacemaker, and naturally resolves grievances, and then this versatile Dou Gongzi is an eye-opener.

"Anyway, this access control is coming, and this Dou Gongzi is also leaving, but now he wants to say goodbye to us, and I heard that he wants to bet with all of us."

"Don't mention it, I think he deliberately gave us silver." Someone already said with a mocking.

Because this Dou Gongzi is like a boy who scatters money, he actually made a bet with all of them to bet on which of the two iron balls of different sizes will land first.

And this fool actually chose two balls to land at the same time.

Immediately made all the sons laugh, after all, they are all people with status, thinking that this is the meaning of flattery, and they want to use such means to give them silver.

Therefore, the one who could have looked up to him completely despised this Dou Gongzi.

Because they are not stupid, but they are very disdainful of such drills, they are not the sons of important ministers of the court.

"Originally, I regarded him as a wonderful confidant, but I didn't expect him to be exempt from vulgarity, it's a pity."

"That's right, originally, I invited the prince this time, but now my face is not disgraceful, such a flattering person, I am ashamed to be with him." There is really no shortage of silver.

Although there are not too many, but a few hundred taels can still be taken out, this is just their own physical strength silver, if it is really useful, it is a few thousand taels, and each family can also take it out.

The crown prince Zhu Ciyu also felt bored, and immediately despised these people, they were all idle guys, and this time they said that they had met a wonderful person, and they were rated as the four handsome people in the capital, all of whom were boasting.

"The prince doesn't know, this person is still very good, but he knows that the city gate is open, so he is also cheesy, and he estimates that he just wants to form a good relationship with everyone."

"That is, if it weren't for that, how would we ignore him, but this time we will not be soft, and we will not appreciate it, let him steal chickens and rice." Someone has spoken out with bad intentions.

Silver is not a hot thing, so at this time everyone is ready, not only the silver hand, but also in the future will not have anything to do with him.

They are all children of eunuchs, and everyone is already immune to this kind of thing, only Zhu Cishu is slightly worried, after all, he has experienced the least.

But after hearing their explanation, the silver was just taken for nothing, and even Zhu Ciqi was moved.

Although he is the crown prince, Emperor Chongzhen is too cruel to himself and his family, and he is in the palace, so the silver on his body is not as good as these people.

"Dou Gongzi is here......"

The late arrival of Dou Gongzi in everyone's mouth also caused everyone's dissatisfaction.

This person is the oldest here, but when they met, he confessed: "It's not that the city gate is open, and I have to leave next, and I have to pack up my things and delay, and you will forgive me." ”

His accent is a bit Liaodong, and he also has Gyeonggi, so I really can't hear where it is, but thinking of his identity, Zhu Ciqi didn't think much about it.

"Why don't you stay for a few days...... "Someone stayed, but they stopped.

Because this man's cheesiness also completely insulated him from this circle.

"In this case, let's take a look at this bet quickly, you don't need to prepare for the iron ball, I have already ordered someone to prepare, it is better for all of us to take out the gambling money, and we are willing to lose the bet."

At this time, there is no friendship to talk about, they come this time, not to say goodbye at all, or to get silver, and after they are done, they will yell at this guy for being stupid.

This is how people are happy, so at this time, everyone urged unceremoniously, and at the same time took out all the bets, because this matter has been known, everyone is ruthless, although they did not touch the money at home, but they took out their own money.

That's the rule of this circle.

When it's time to take it, never be soft.
