Chapter 14: Are You Planning to Choke Yourself to Death?
The king and princess of Zhenbei stayed in Qinfu for two days, and two days later set off for Chang'an, Kyoto.
On the way to Kyoto, Qin Ruse leaned on Gongsun Jin's arms and rested: "Your Majesty, what did Daddy tell you just now?" β
"Secret."
"Oh, okay." Qin Ruse didn't ask any further.
Two days later, the frame of Zhenbei Wang finally arrived in Chang'an. As soon as the carriage entered the city, Qin Ruse was immediately attracted by the prosperity of Chang'an City. Although Linyang is rich, he is far from the feeling that Chang'an gives people. Everything in Chang'an is like a manifestation of the auspiciousness and prosperity of the Great Zhou, whether it is the busy streets, the endless taverns, or the teaching workshops of Yingge and Yan DanceΒ·Β·Β·Β·Β·Β·
The kind of peace and development of Chang'an seems to emanate from the bones of this city little by little.
"When does the king plan to enter the palace?" Outside the carriage, the accompanying steward asked.
Gongsun Jin looked at Qin Ruse's curious appearance outside, and turned around and said, "Three days later." β
After the frame entered the courtyard of King Zhenbei in the capital, Qin Ruse couldn't wait to take a look outside. As a result, Gongsun Jinyi grabbed the collar and lifted it back.
"Go and change your clothes, it's inconvenient for you."
After a stick of incense, Gongsun Jin wore a white civilian dress and stood at the door waiting for Qin Ruse. At that time, a little Langjun in a black robe patted him on the back: "I said king, our match is black and white!" β
Gongsun Jin turned around and looked at his daughter-in-law dressed in men's clothes, beautiful and lovely, like a weak scholar. "You're making fun of this king again."
"How dare you, your king, let's go." After Qin Ruse finished speaking, he opened the fan in his hand, but he learned it well.
Along the way, Qin Ruse bought all kinds of novelties that he had never seen before. dragged Gongsun Jindong to walk around the west, and finally stopped at the door of a casino.
Qin Ruse leaned over slightly and whispered, "Your Majesty, why don't we try it!" β
"Try it!"
The casino was smoky, full of the sound of dice colliding and the clamor of gamblers. Gongsun Jin followed Qin Ruse and looked around without leaving an inch, and finally stopped in front of a gaming table.
"Buy it and leave, hurry up."
"Big big!"
"Tiny."
Qin Ruse listened attentively, and decisively put the bag of silver in his hand on the small characters.
"It's done!" After the guy at the gambling house finished speaking, he opened the lid. Six and a small, leopard, Qin Ruse earned more than ten times.
"Awesome!" Qin Ruse smiled, and then saw a few guys not far away staring at him secretly. After collecting the money, he took Gongsun Jin and walked outside.
After coming out, Gongsun Jin asked the reason, and Qin Ruse explained: "We made so much money at once, and if we stay any longer, we won't be in debt, and the people in the gambling house will not let you leave." β
"These gambling houses are all supervised by my Great Zhou government."
"So what, what gambling house in the world is not. A small gamble is pleasant, but once it is favored by the God of Wealth, who can stop in moderation. When the gambling house let them have bad luck, there are a few that can stop the loss in time. In the end, most of them became outlaws, selling their wives and children. β
Gongsun Jin rarely heard a few philosophical words from the innermost part of Qin Ruse, and felt very gratified: "In this matter, you are quite far-sighted." β
"You really exalted me, but your majesty, you have been guarding the frontier outside the fortress, and you don't know anything about the tricks of the magnates in Kyoto. Which gambling house in Chang'an does not have the care of the princes and nobles behind it. The intricacies of this are just a matter of understanding if you think about it. β
After hearing this, Gongsun Jin fell into a long silence. Qin Ruse saw what the king was worried about, and took out an ingot from the silver in his hand and put it in Gongsun Jin's hand.
"Your Majesty, if you have that kind of thought, start with this."
Gongsun Jin looked at the silver engraved with the words Zhenbei Wangfu in his hand and fell into deep thought. Now it seems that things have developed beyond their expectations. Even if he has never coveted the throne, but there is nothing to show in the saint today, who can be in the court with a clean breeze.
In today's gambling house, the silver given to her by the princess shows that someone has pointed the finger at herself. The palace of Zhenbei is far away in Heze, and without being summoned, he has never been allowed to enter the capital at will. Who in the whole world doesn't know that the king of Zhenbei has outstanding military exploits, and his status is already sensitive, and if he is not careful, he will not be crowned with the hat of a high-ranking master. And now that the gambling house in Chang'an City has appeared in the official silver of the Zhenbei Wangfu, it is obvious that someone intends to pour a basin of dirty water on the Zhenbei Wang, which is very likely to connect the nine clans.
"Eat?"
Gongsun Jin, who had been obsessed with something, didn't notice that his princess had gone to the side to buy something and came back. He looked at the sugar gourd that the man was holding against his mouth in confusion, and subconsciously opened his mouth.
"Is it sweet? I have always heard that the rock sugar gourd in Chang'an City is unique in the world, and I tasted it today, to be honest, it is so-so. Qin Ruse pouted, looked at Gongsun Jin who held the whole sugar gourd in his mouth, felt very cute, and pulled his sleeve: "Your Majesty, are you planning to choke yourself to death?" I don't want to be a widow at a young age. β
Gongsun Jin reacted at this time, swallowed the sugar gourd, and played Qin Ruse's brain: "Do you know that if you let others listen to this, you will curse the emperor's relatives and relatives, but you will lose your head." β
Qin Ruse said and stretched her neck over, "Now, here you go." β
"You!"
The two walked side by side on the streets of Chang'an City, the sunset sank into the mountain pass, and the various lanterns in the market were dotted. As one of the few cities in the Great Zhou that did not have a curfew, the carnival of Chang'an City had just begun. At dinner, the two of them ordered some special dishes on the first floor of the world, because they were sitting on the street, even if they didn't see it, they could hear the laughter of Yanchun Building opposite.
When Gongsun Jin saw Qin Ruse's weird smile, he immediately knew what was going on in front of him. had to follow her to Yanchun Building.
