Chapter 64: 64: Moon Hidden Palace

It seems that the owner behind the "Taylor Casino" is like a fog.

Only the kind where the fog does not see the flowers.

Ji Shu: "After a recent visit, there are no other people making human skin masks in Wangdu Street, teahouses, restaurants, and gambling houses. ”

Jimo: "Expected. With this excellent production, those who are comparable to our Ji family are not incompetent. It's normal that you can't find it out in just a few days. My father already knew about this, and he might go to Wangcheng to investigate in person in a few days, so he was not in a hurry. Uncle Bai is also secretly paying attention. Let's hope it's not someone targeting the Thousand Faces Pavilion. ”

Ji Shu: "'Tailai Casino'......"

Bai Mei: "I'll go back and ask my father tonight to see if he knows about 'Tailai Casino' - the name is not good, but there are a lot of rules!" ”

Ji Mo nodded: "It's okay." ”

Bai Jingshi has lived in the royal city for a long time, and he doesn't only have two brushes in his hands. I wish his brush was covered with iron bristles, and with a single wave he could break through the fog and see the clouds.

That night, Bai Mei returned to the Bai family's house. When he got off the bus outside the gate of Bai's house, the hexagonal ruyi lamp hanging high on the gate of the house was burning warmly. After entering the door and asking the little maid at home, he went straight to the study.

The housekeeper Lao Xu was waiting outside. Lao Xu saw Bai Mei coming, and hurriedly stepped forward to greet him.

"Uncle Xu, where's my father."

Uncle Xu said: "Young master, the master is busy inside." ”

Bai Mei sighed and said, "I have something to do with him!" ”

Uncle Xu kindly reminded: "Young Master, slow down. ”

Bai Mei knew the meaning of his words, and said crisply, "Hey! "I went in.

His father, Bai Jingshi, was writing something in the study.

He walked lightly across the threshold of the study, and in a quiet voice, he called out "Dad!" ”

Bai Jingshi is forty miles away, not fat or thin, and his eyes are bright and bright. Wearing a half-new robe, it looks very homely. It seems that Daddy is not very busy today.

Bai Jingshi seemed to have eyes on his back, and he didn't raise his head: "Are you willing to come back today?" Running over without changing your clothes - it's probably not a good thing! He finished writing the last few words.

Bai Mei covered his nose and coughed: "Daddy is really Mingjian!" ”

Bai Mei is very deferential to his father, especially when he asks for something.

At this time, Bai Jingshi had already turned around: "Say, what's the matter?" ”

A business-like attitude.

"It's not a big deal......," Bai Mei smiled and looked at Daddy.

"Didn't you fall in love with Ning Yatou?" Bai Jingshi frowned slightly, "Can A-Ning take a fancy to you like this?" ”

Bai Mei was directly choked by his father's words, and what he wanted to say suddenly choked in his stomach.

This dad is too direct!

He instinctively disguised it: "No." Then he thought for a while and added, "Dad, what does A-Ning mean that A-Ning can take a fancy to me?" Your prejudice against your son is not ordinarily deep! ”

"No?" Bai Jingshi smiled, "Your movement is almost known to the entire capital!" ”

Bai Mei innocently thought, is it so obvious? But I just bought Ah Ning some delicious food, I'm not good at it.

Bai Jingshi's perceptive eyes swept over: "Lao Ji is such a precious daughter, and she will inherit his mantle in the future." You're really going to find problems with your father! ”

White eyebrows......

Daddy, you haven't gotten a word out of this matter yet, and you're worried a lot.

"I know this, go ahead. It's useless for you to say it to me, the key is that A-Ning likes you. Long snack, think about how it can be matched with others! Bai Jingshi turned around, not going to pay attention to this son who had nothing to do but go to the Three Treasures Palace, "I still have something to ......"

Bai Mei helplessly raised his forehead: "Dad," he looked at his father with a smile and a smile, "I haven't said anything yet, and you have robbed it!" I have something to ask you! ”

Bai Jingshi turned around again and raised his eyebrows, didn't he want to talk about A-Ning?

This kid suddenly became official, and it seems that he really likes A-Ning.

He knows that his son has a decent character, a good temperament, and a love of eating and playing. It needs to be honed.

He decided to take him to meet all kinds of people in the royal city in the future. How can you do it without learning and not knowing?

"Dad," the smile faded from Bai Mei's face, and the expression on his face was serious, "Do you know the 'Tai Lai Casino'?" ”

"What?" Bai Jingshi was taken aback in his heart, and his voice raised, "You went to the gambling house?" ”

"No, no, how can your son go to that kind of place?"

Bai Jingshi was relieved when he heard this.

Yes, how could a son do such a thing that does not know what is at stake.

Big troubles are difficult to solve, and small rights and wrongs are easy to say.

In all fairness, Bai Jingshi is dedicated to the cultivation of his son. Bai Mei was enlightened at the age of five, and Bai Jingshi invited him a few masters before and after, and none of his fists and feet or poems and books were left behind. This child has a cheerful and mischievous personality, and in addition to being quick in arithmetic, he has been interested in all kinds of food mysteries since he was a child. As long as there is good food, you will be happy and learn quickly. Bai Jingshi has a heart to hope that his son will become a dragon, and within a few years, he has changed several chefs to cater to and calm his son's growing appetite - not that he eats too much, but that he eats a wide variety and is particular.

After eating, most of them do not forget the ingredients and taste, and then judge that the same dish is made by different people based on the taste. After the age of fourteen, the family can't keep him in the house!

Bai Jingshi had to send someone to take him to eat all over the capital.

Fortunately, when he satisfies his appetite, he will be satisfied and honestly go home to learn from Master.

Later, Bai Mei met many chefs, and often cheated on eating and drinking without being in tune. β€”β€”From time to time, I use my arithmetic expertise to put forward some of my own small opinions with reasonable evidence, and slightly change the proportion between ingredients and seasonings, so that the food made is more delicious. People are happy to be coaxed by him, and if they are not careful, they will lead him to be a confidant, and sincerely serve good food. As long as it is human, who doesn't like to be praised and appreciated!

Typical acquaintance with taste.

When Bai Jingshi was young, he was keen to learn to run a business, but his father did not approve of it, so he had to sneak into contact, so he understood people's desires and hardships better, so he indulged a lot of Bai Mei's food complex. In addition to conniving, I was really afraid that my son would not be able to stop the car on the wide avenue of food.

Fortunately, the enthusiasm of Bai Mei tasting is far greater than the urge to do it. Bai Jingshi's apprehensive heart finally fell into his stomach.

……

"Dad, you are well-informed, can you know who the operator of the Tailai Casino is?" Seeing that his father was silent, Bai Mei thought about it and sniffed out something unusual.

It's just a gambling house, and it's not particularly famous.

Bai Jingshi was silent for a moment, took his eyes off Bai Mei, took a deep breath, turned his gaze to his son again, and said slowly: "I know a little bit about Tailai Casino," he paused, "Not much." ”

The son easily didn't ask him questions, but he didn't expect that as soon as this cub asked questions, it was beyond the scope of Lao Tzu's knowledge.

"What? Don't even know you? Bai Mei smiled disapprovingly, "Over the years, then your connections in the royal city ......"

Isn't it good, dare to love is all false?

Bai Jingshi is known as "a thousand faces of stone", eight sides of the exquisite source is decent, a thousand grinding has a thousand faces, a rock heart.

Bai Jingshi glared at Bai Mei: "What do you know!" As the saying goes, 'people can't look good', and the same is true of Tai Lai Casino, if you only listen to its name is really ordinary,β€”β€” how do you know about this gambling house? ”

Seeing that the topic of his father changed, Bai Mei doubted himself, so he patiently explained the ins and outs briefly.

Bai Jingshi was silent after listening. He has lived in the royal city for a long time, and as the treasurer of the Thousand Faces Pavilion, he has a lot of capable people under him, some things can be done, and some things must be adjudicated and handled by him personally. He has seen a lot of people, all kinds of people, including white cloth clothes, dignitaries, royal relatives, and high-rollers. No matter who you are, most of them can't get around the word "profit", the word "righteousness", and the word "love". After all, it's all about the word "good life". There are many sentient beings, so there are thousands of people and thousands of faces, and the world is full of feelings, love and hatred, and all kinds of entanglements. Recognizing these, he peels off the cocoon from the birthplace of people's desires, and he will be much more relaxed.

"You mingle in the market all day long, and you can hear a lot of things about Taylor's casino?" Bai Jingshi asked.

"Very few," Bai Mei thought back for a moment, affirming, "almost nothing." ”

"That's it." Bai Jingshi's eyes became shrewd, "According to my father's knowledge, Tailai Gambling House, three years ago quietly opened in Shiliu Lane, opened so far unknown, very low-key, it is reported, the upper and lower layers of decoration are excellent, making people 'feel at home', gambling and forgetting worries, losing thousands of net worth at any cost." - You've probably heard of the rules inside, but I won't talk about it. Those who can gamble in it are either clear about their family backgrounds, or outlaws, and even if they don't have the ability, they will be beaten up and thrown out after being convinced. In short, can you go in and bet on them. In the past three years, there have been no troublemakers in the gambling house, and there have been no official inspections. It is rumored that Tailai Gambling House belongs to the name of 'Moon Hidden Palace', and the person who sits in the town is the lunar eclipse of Moon Hidden Palace. ”

Bai Mei immediately took a breath after hearing this, Moon Hidden Palace?

Then a thought came to me: there is indeed never an impermeable wall in the world, and if you want people not to know it, you can't do it unless you do.

This thought just popped up for a short while, and another thought flashed: This is a bit tricky, are Mo Shao and Ming in trouble?
