Chapter 26: Disaster of the Red Face
The western suburbs of the Imperial City, inside the Bliss Square.
"Big big!"
"Tiny!"
Amid the shouts of the gamblers, a young man who looked no more than twenty years old sat leisurely at a wooden table in the corner, with a sword-wielding guard standing behind him.
Holding a paper fan in his hand, the man sipped the tea carefully, looking intoxicated, and he seemed to be able to turn a deaf ear to the noise around him.
A cyan robe on his body is woven from high-grade cloud brocade, and on the thumb of his left hand, he is covered with a white jade wrench with a crystal texture.
This person is the owner of the world's first gambling house, Paradise Fang, and Gu Shichong's only son, named Gu Yufei.
Three-dimensional facial features and dignified appearance, but he acts ruthlessly and has sharp methods, compared to his Lao Tzu, Gu Yufei can be said to be more than that.
Several other gambling houses in the imperial city, under his coercion and temptation, were all forced to close their doors, and some people were unwilling to compete with him, and in the end not only failed, but also ended up with the whole family killed, and since then the Bliss Fang family has been dominant.
The surrounding atmosphere suddenly became depressing, keenly aware that something was wrong, Gu Yufei threw the teacup in his hand upward, the tea splashed out, and the teacup turned around in the air and went directly to the black-clothed man hiding on the beam.
"Childe, be careful!" Seeing that several dark darts flew over in unison, and the two guards behind him were about to draw their swords, Gu Yufei had already taken the lead, opened the fan in his hand, and with just a wave of his hand, several dark darts were all blocked.
Several black-clothed men jumped down from all around, the long swords in their hands reflecting the cold light, and stabbed directly towards Gu Yufei.
The figure flew over, a paper fan made it easy, Gu Yufei looked calm, and did not put these black-clothed people in his eyes at all.
The two guards who followed him were not weak in martial arts, although they were less to more, but the man in black couldn't bargain at all.
Hit Gu Yufei's kick, the body of a man in black flew straight out, and the huge momentum smashed on the wooden table in the center of the gambling house, and the table collapsed immediately.
The fight scene with real knives and guns made the gamblers present dumbfounded, and they couldn't take care of the money or anything.
As the fight progressed, the man in black became more and more not an opponent, and after a while, he was killed and wounded, and finally only one man in black remained, who fell to the ground with serious injuries.
Gu Yufei's two guards held long swords in their hands and pointed directly at the man in black, and one of them asked fiercely; "Say, Who sent you? Why did you assassinate Childe? ”
"If you do too much injustice, you will kill yourself, Gu Yufei, your whole family will not die well!" His gaze was not good, and the man in black glared viciously at the few people in front of him.
Although through the veil, the corners of the black-clothed man's lips could be clearly felt.
"Stop him, don't let him die!" Thinking of something, Gu Yufei hurriedly ordered towards his guards.
But when the guard stepped forward and pinched the mouth of the man in black, the man had already bitten through the poison hidden between his teeth.
Pulling down the veil of the man in black, he saw a smear of blackened blood running down the corner of his mouth, and the guard reached out to probe his snort, and found that the man in black had already died.
"Childe, dead!" Shaking his head at Gu Yufei, the guard responded truthfully.
"Chop these people up and throw them out to feed the dogs!" There was a terrifying ruthlessness flashing in his eyes, and Gu Yufei ordered with hatred.
His left hand clenched into a fist, and he knew with his toes that these assassins must have been sent by the damned woman.
Gu Yu's flying affairs have always been clean and neat, and he has always been accustomed to his own style of acting in all the cases he has done, even if he chases to the ends of the earth, he must cut the grass and eradicate the roots.
But that woman is the only omission he has made over the years, and the difference in his thoughts has left him with infinite troubles.
He secretly attacked him many times, and he thought in his heart countless times that if he was caught, he would definitely make her unable to survive and die, but he obviously had countless opportunities to catch her, but he released the water again and again.
"What trouble did you cause again, why was you assassinated as soon as you came back?"
A sudden sound at the door pulled Gu Yufei back from his thoughts.
"Xiangye!" When the two guards saw Gu Shichong, they hurriedly stepped forward and saluted.
"You guys stand down and go dispose of the corpse!" Waving his hand to the two guards, Gu Yufei smiled and greeted Gu Shichong at the door.
"Dad, what trouble can I cause, but it is all these years that have helped you in business and formed bonds with many merchants!"
"Really? Haven't you always left no room for things to do, and haven't you killed all the people who have offended you, or the people you have offended? ”
Although it is said that Gu Shichong's father and son are living separately and do not have close contacts, after all, blood is thicker than water, and Gu Shichong is still very clear about what kind of virtue his biological son is.
"There are too many opponents, and there will inevitably be fish that slip through the net!" Pouting, Gu Yufei said disappreciably.
"You kid, don't always mess with me everywhere and get into trouble!" Looking at Gu Yufei's cynical appearance, Gu Shichong reproached dissatisfied.
"Got it! Don't worry, I can handle my own affairs by myself, and I will definitely not cause trouble to the Prime Minister's Mansion! ”
Glancing at Gu Yufei helplessly, Gu Shichong changed his words and said, "You don't know how to go home when you come back, you have to come to you in person and explain how your affairs are going?" ”
"I'm doing things, Dad, aren't you still at ease? Properly, I believe it won't be long before there will be movement over there, so you can rest easy and wait for good news! ”
Although Gu Yufei loves beauty and is a little unprofessional, he still has the ability, otherwise, Gu Shichong would not rest assured that many things will be completely handed over to him.
Looking at Gu Yufei's confident appearance, a look of pride flashed in Gu Shichong's deep eyes.
Inside the Imperial Study.
Bei Yingyan was reviewing the chapters, and suddenly a guard ran in in a panic, knelt on one knee, and reported: "Your Majesty, it's not good, last night, the southeast river dam in Los Angeles burst its embankment, and all the sea water poured into the city, and in just a while, the entire city became an ocean, and the people in the city were killed and injured countless times!" ”
"What?" Bei Yingyan was obviously startled, and he dropped the song in his hand and said, "Wasn't the river dam in Los Angeles just repaired with funds not long ago?" How could it collapse and burst the embankment so quickly? ”
Los Angeles is a city on the edge of the Imperial City of Western Chu, located in the center of Western Chu, and is an important transportation hub of the entire Western Chu.
However, its topography is relatively special, and it is close to the turbulent Black Sea in the southeast, so the imperial court has always paid special attention to the repair of the Los Angeles River embankment.
