The direction of the wind in the court turned very inexplicably, and most of the courtiers couldn't understand it.

It is very abnormal that a group of courtiers led by the right minister Xu Jingzong went from fierce opposition to sudden silence, and the change in attitude was only overnight.

No one knows why Xu Jingzong suddenly changed his attitude, but it is clear that there must be an unknown inside story behind it.

Seeing that Xu Jingzong's attitude suddenly changed, many courtiers who were preparing to continue to oppose also shut up without any inside information, and then swept around Xu Jingzong's face in disbelief, trying to see the clues.

The old god Xu Jingzong was there, standing in the court and closing his eyes, as if he was in no state to contradict the Son of Heaven today, and he was too lazy to speak.

The most suspicious thing is the left minister Xu Yushi, who originally did not deal with each other, but this time there was a tacit understanding, and the temporary alliance against the radical policy of the Son of Heaven was unexpected.

Nima defected, you turned away, you should say hello in advance.

This made Xu Yushi a little difficult to ride a tiger, and the courtiers led by Xu Jingzong shut up, while several of Xu Yushi's protégés still jumped out without knowing whether they were alive or dead to continue to oppose the Son of Heaven.

Above the Golden Palace, Xu Yushi's face was green, but he couldn't hint that the rules of the court meeting were strict this year, and a cough would be written down by the imperial history in a small notebook.

And Li Zhi on the Golden Palace today also had an unusually gentle temper, and he didn't care about the opposition of Xu Yushi and some other courtiers, but his eyes were a little cold when he looked at Xu Yushi.

Xu Yushi saw Li Zhi's eyes clearly, and couldn't help but chuckle in his heart, and his expression became more and more uncalm.

I feel like I've been tricked today.

Xu Jingzong's old puppet pits me!

Finally waiting for the court to disperse, Xu Yushi seemed to have lost half his life, and when he walked out of the main hall, his back was soaked.

As soon as he left the palace gate, Xu Yushi immediately wanted to find Xu Jingzong, but who knew that Xu Jingzong walked fast, got into the carriage outside the palace gate with a smoke, and ran away.

So Master Xu immediately turned around and wanted to meet the Son of Heaven, but the eunuch stopped him and told Master Xu with a smile and politely that the Son of Heaven would not see the ministers today.

Xu Yushi felt more and more that something was wrong, and the only thing he could think of now was the young man who proposed to build roads and build ships.

After leaving the palace gate, Xu Yushi instructed the coachman to go to the British mansion.

…………

Li Qinzai was not in the British government, but in a wine shop in the west of Chang'an City.

The wine shop was smoky, countless merchants and people sat in the wine shop, many people took off their shoes and sat barefoot, which was suddenly filled with all kinds of flavors and refreshed their minds.

The backyard of the liquor store was surrounded by a clearing and came out, and a group of people stood outside the clearing, blushing and staring at the two fighting cocks in the clearing, shouting and scolding hoarsely.

Lee Chin-jae is among them.

The picture is very discordant, even he didn't believe that he would appear in such a smoky place, but he was there.

Standing next to him was the long-lost King Teng, who was wearing an ordinary round-necked green robe and a scarf, looking like a small businessman who had made some spare money, mixed with the people around him and was inconspicuous, very down-to-earth.

Li Qinzai was supposed to visit King Teng at the pavilion today, but who knew that he was empty, and King Teng's guards told him that His Royal Highness was not in the pavilion, and he was fighting cocks in Xishi.

Li Qinzai didn't know what tendons he was smoking, so he asked the guards to take him to King Teng, so he appeared in this smoky place inexplicably, and looked at King Teng foaming at the mouth and scolding angrily.

The two fighting cocks in the cockfighting arena are undoubtedly the protagonists, I don't know how much King Teng has bet, the green tendons on his neck are bulging and jumping, and Li Qinzai is worried that he will burst his blood vessels.

Cockfighting is one of Datang's entertainment projects, to be precise, it is a gambling project.

The rules that determine winning or losing are of course very simple, two chickens pecking each other in the open space, and whoever dies loses.

After a cockfight, one chicken held its head high in the clearing, and the other fell to the ground and was dying, and the winner was decided.

The crowd of onlookers cheered or lamented, and King Teng was sweating profusely, staring blankly at the dying chicken in the clearing, as if his own life was also attached to the chicken, and his soul ascended to heaven.

Li Qinzai looked at him sympathetically, it was obvious that King Teng had lost this time, and judging from his dejected expression, he had lost a lot.

"Your Highness......" Li Qinzai had just opened his mouth in his ear, and King Teng immediately looked around vigilantly.

"Call me Brother Yuanying, I'm a private interview with Weifu today." King Teng admonished solemnly.

Li Qinzai was stunned for a moment, this is a bit difficult to do, although it is quite cool to suddenly be a generation higher than the county lord of Jinxiang, but ...... It's embarrassing to be a generation higher than Li Zhi.

This His Royal Highness King Teng is really stunned.

Fortunately, King Teng was not completely stunned, and as soon as the words came out, he immediately reacted, and hurriedly changed his words: "Call uncle!" Uncle Yuanying, don't want to take advantage of my heavenly family! ”

"Yes, Uncle Yuanying, the cockfight is lost, can we go out and talk? I have business to say. ”

King Teng stared at the open space and said casually: "Don't worry, there is another one, let's talk about it after the fight." ”

It's gambling addiction, King Teng...... is worthy of King Teng, and the reputation of the old gentleman is not bad at all.

A little curious, it is clear that King Teng has been blackmailed by him, and even the income of the field shops under his name next year has been turned into an IOU, and he still has money to gamble.

Li Qinzai couldn't help but secretly spit on his soft-heartedness.

Not long after, the two men each brought two fighting cocks and placed them in the middle of the clearing.

The onlookers suddenly became noisy, and the atmosphere suddenly set off a climax.

A guy walks through the crowd with a pen and paper, collecting money one by one and recording the bets placed by the gamblers.

King Teng's face was pale, he gritted his teeth, took out a small piece of silver cake from his arms and handed it to the man, pointed to one of the fighting cocks with a black back and a flower neck, and signaled to place its bet.

The guy took the money, wrote down the bets, and then looked at Li Qinzai.

Li Qinzai looked back at the guy with a blank face.

King Teng pouted: "Jing Chu also plays, a small bet is pleasant." ”

Li Qinzai shook his head: "I'm not interested." I don't refuse to play with chickens, but not chickens......"

"Why?"

"This chicken...... It's too serious. Li Qinzai said innocently: "I like the kind that hurts the morals." ”

King Teng was stunned: "...... Mother and maid also, I have seen it today. Where do you see if it's right? ”

Li Qinzai sighed, as if they were not on the same channel again.

King Teng didn't give up, and continued to pout: "Play, it's all here, wouldn't it be empty to enter Baoshan if you don't fight?" ”

Li Qinzai said helplessly: "Which one did Uncle Yuanying choose?" ”

King Teng pointed to the black-backed fighting with a flowery neck, and said excitedly: "That one! You see it is majestic and majestic, looking forward to life, high-spirited and majestic, there will be a great victory! ”

Li Qinzai pointed to the other one without hesitation: "I choose it." ”

He took out a piece of silver cake from his bosom and handed it to the guy, who quickly took it and wrote it down.

King Teng was stunned: "No, are you mistaken?" The one I chose is called ......."

Li Qinzai interrupted him with a wave of his hand: "Don't say it, I'll choose it." ”

"Li Jingchu, do you have to go against me?" King Teng was angry.

Li Qinzai said: "Uncle Yuanying's brain is shining, it is clearly an everlasting lamp in front of the Buddha, if you don't change it, choose it." ”

King Teng gritted his teeth and said angrily: "Okay, you open your eyes wide, there are times when you regret it!" ”

An hour after a stick of incense.

King Teng drooped his head and walked out of the wine shop dejectedly.

Li Qinzai happily walked side by side with him, stuffing the silver cake he had just won into his arms as he went.

This bright light really didn't disappoint him, the surprise was enough, King Teng just said that there was a time when he regretted it, that's right, Li Qinzai regretted it, regretted not betting more.

Compared with Li Qinzai's joy of harvest, King Teng's complexion is gray, if he is compared to a bright lamp, at this moment this lamp is already the appearance of the wind and candles, and the kind that will be extinguished as soon as the wind blows.

"Your Royal Highness, don't be discouraged, the so-called 'the wind blows the eggshell, the wealth goes to the people's happiness', and the so-called 'the daughter is scattered and comes back', and the so-called 'five-flowered horse, daughter Qiu, Hu'er will gamble'......"

King Teng became more and more irritable when he heard this, and said angrily: "Shut up! I came to find this king for no reason today, is there anything to do? ”

Li Qinzai was still immersed in the joy of the harvest, and blurted out without thinking: "It's okay, I just want to ask His Highness when he is interested in gambling again, and he must call me." ”

King Teng was furious, and flicked his sleeves fiercely: "Farewell!" ”

After saying that, he turned around and left.

Li Qinzai suddenly came back to his senses at this time, and quickly grabbed him: "Something!" Tomorrow, I invite Your Highness to participate in the court meeting. ”
