Chapter 53: The cynicism before the competition

The location of the competition was selected in the school field in the barracks. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

The school yard is very large, about a few thousand people, the ground is bare, in addition to the yellow sand and gravel, there are also some wooden stakes and straw handles for the training of soldiers, and only a few huge trees are planted in the outermost part of the body.

Desolate, more solemn - this is Yuan Jiang's overall feeling of the school field.

But today, this desolate school field is full of people standing and watching the excitement.

The news that the eldest prince was going to compete with Sun Bofu spread like a plague in the barracks, and even the people in the city knew about it, and they put down their work at home, ran to tell each other, and came to the school to see the grand event.

Of course, this is the result of some people deliberately pushing behind the scenes.

At this time, Yuan Jiang stood on the edge of the school field, holding a pergola in his hand, looking around, all he could see was a black pressed human head, looking at it, the corners of his mouth were slightly upturned, outlining an elusive smile.

Zhang Xun, who acted as Yuan Jiang's guard, saw that even the people in the city came to join in the fun, his face gradually became gloomy, and he said hatefully: "This Sun Ce is really hateful, it was originally a small internal competition, but I didn't expect to be made all over the city by him, as if everyone in the world needs to know." ”

Zhang Xun only thought that Sun Ce deliberately made the matter bigger this time, so he was quite indignant in his words. He didn't know that it was Yuan Jiang, the mastermind behind the scenes, who really pushed the news of the competition to a climax.

Without his acquiescence, Ren Sun Ce would have great ability, and he would not have made this matter known to women and children.

Of course, Yuan Jiang will only do this in private, and will never say it on stage.

So when he heard this, he didn't explain, but his eyes narrowed slightly, and with a playful smile on his face, he asked, "Isn't this bad?" Since some people want to lose face and throw themselves home, I can fulfill them. ”

Zhang Xun was stunned for a moment, and then smiled stupidly: "What Childe said is very true. ”

Before the competition began, Liang Gang, who was still wrapped in bandages on his shoulders, hurried to Yuan Jiang's side, and said with a slight reproach in his tone: "Childe, how can you agree to compete with Sun Bofu?" Now it's okay, let everyone in the city know, doesn't this make the lord lose face? ”

Yuan Jiang smiled faintly: "General Liang, do you expect that I might lose?" ”

"It's not possible, it's certain." Liang Gang corrected it, and said: "Childe may not know yet, this underground gambling house has already opened, and two-thirds of the people who bet on you to lose, and there is a big head among them, who has pressed 10,000 baht." ”

"There's still a gamble? It's really a novelty. Yuan Jiang raised his eyebrows with interest, and suddenly seemed to think of something, and asked with a smile: "This big head should be Sun Ce, right?" That guy is sure to beat me nine times out of ten. ”

Liang Gang nodded, "That's right, so I said that Childe's actions were too reckless." ”

Yuan Jiang touched his nose stupidly, swept his eyes over Liang Gang, and said with a smile: "General Liang, how about we also gamble?" ”

Liang Gang said angrily: "Alas, I said Childe, why do you still have the heart to joke at this time?" I advise you, or hurry up and beg the lord to find an excuse to cancel this competition, otherwise it will not only be you who will lose face at that time, but even our subordinates will be unlucky. ”

Yuan Jiang shook his head with a smile, "The eldest husband is hard to chase after him, and this competition cannot be canceled." ”

"Alas!" Unexpectedly, Yuan Jiang was so stubborn, Liang Gang shook his head helplessly, glanced at Zhang Xun who was standing aside without saying a word, hurriedly beckoned to him, and complained: "General Xun, you don't know how to persuade Gongzi." ”

Zhang Xun stepped forward, not to persuade Yuan Jiang, but to Liang Gang with a smile: "Gongzi can humiliate Sun Ce by doing this, why should I stop it?" I wish he had humiliated him a few more times. ”

"I said, are you caught a chill? All the nonsense? Liang Gang said as he gently touched Zhang Xun's forehead with his hand, but he didn't feel anything abnormal, which made the doubts in his heart even worse.

"General Liang, you can please." Zhang Xun smiled mysteriously, groped out a bag of coins from his arms, handed it to Liang Gang's hand, and whispered: "Give me all the pressure on Gongzi." If you win, please go to Wangchun Pavilion. ”

Looking at the money bag in his hand in a daze, when Liang Gang was about to speak, Yuan Jiang also took out a bag of coins, but it was much heavier than Zhang Xun's, and it was also handed over to Liang Gang, he said: "One bag is too little, this bag is also pressed." If you lose, it's mine, and if you win, the three of us will divide it equally. ”

Speaking of this, no matter how stupid Ren Lianggang is, he understands that in this competition, the son is sure to win, otherwise he would not hesitate to invest money in the competition knowing that he is losing?

Yuan Jiang patted Liang Gang on the shoulder, "General Liang, for your sake of being good to this son, I remind you that I won't let Sun Ce win a game this time." ”

Although the voice was very small, Liang Gang could feel that Yuan Jiang was full of confidence, and it seemed that his previous speculation was correct, since this was the case, he also decided to make a desperate bet, "Since the prince has made everything clear, how can the last general not give up his life to accompany the gentleman?" In this way, I also pressed all my savings, and if I win, I will win his mother's big, and if I lose, it will be a big deal to live a few days of poverty. ”

Yuan Jiang nodded with satisfaction, "That's right." Lao Liang, follow this son, and keep your fragrant and spicy food. ”

After sending off the excited Liang Gang, Yuan Jiang ushered in Sun Ce with a proud face.

"Yuan Gongzi, how is it? Have the confidence to win me? ”

Sun Ce's face was full of contempt, and even when he spoke, he looked down on Yuan Jiang with a high attitude.

Yuan Jiang said nonchalantly: "Isn't it a matter of moving your fingers to win you?" ”

"Hmph, hubris!" Sun Ce's nostrils turned to the sky, he snorted coldly, walked in front of Yuan Jiang, lowered his head and whispered in his ear, "I know that you are afraid of losing, and Yuan Highway is even more afraid of losing, but you have no chance of winning against me at all." It's better to do this, you obediently kowtow to me a few times, and then let Yuan Highway return my father's old department to me, and I can take the initiative to admit defeat. How's that a win-win strategy, right? ”

For Sun Ce's blatant ridicule, Yuan Jiang just laughed at it, "Child, the idea is beautiful, but the reality is cruel." I'll talk about all the big things when you win. ”

"Good, good, very good!" Sun Ce clapped his hands, gritted his teeth and said word by word: "After the competition is over, I think you can still be so hard-mouthed?" ”

Yuan Jiang shrugged indifferently, "We'll see." ”

"Humph!" Sun Ce waved his sleeve robe and walked towards his own camp, but he didn't take a few steps before he was stopped by Yuan Jiang, "Brother Bo Fu, aren't you wondering why your father didn't stop me?" ”
