The first floor of the world.

Two days later.

"Childe, news has come from Tianyuan that Jiang Ziqing was seriously injured in the battle of Jinling City and fled, and has now returned to the imperial capital of Qianguo!"

Cao Zi'an came to Liwuji's room with an excited face, and said with some excitement.

Hearing the news, Li Wuji, who was making tea, couldn't help but pause for a moment, and then showed a knowing smile.

"Good."

"Inform him, find a way to inform the Qianguo Dynasty of the truth about the destruction of the mission, temporarily focus on recuperating from injuries, and stop all contact with Tianyuan."

Li Wuji nodded with satisfaction and said thoughtfully.

"If you really do this, will it make the Qianguo Dynasty directly go to war with the country?"

Cao Zi'an hesitated for a moment and asked with some concern.

Although all the people in the abyss hate the empress and the royal family, in the final analysis, they were all Pang Xun's people, and they were even more people who left the country, even if they wanted to take revenge, they didn't want to be at the expense of leaving the country.

"Don't worry, if the two countries wanted to fight, they would have started a fight a long time ago."

"Moreover, the empress knows that the envoy entered Beijing to test the attitude of our dynasty, and the Qianguo Dynasty also knows that the bloodbath of the embassy must be the departure court, and there is no need for any evidence at all, this matter has only been covered with a layer of window paper that can be seen through from the beginning, and it will be broken if it is stabbed."

"My purpose is just to add another fire and make the Qianguo Dynasty's grievances against the empress deeper."

Li Wuji smiled and said meaningfully.

The allusion of the snipe and the clam competing and the fisherman profiting has been the best choice for the wise for thousands of years.

After listening to Li Wuji's words, Cao Zi'an seemed to gradually understand and respectfully agreed.

"Childe, something happened!"

Just then, there was a knock on the door, and the voice was urgent.

When Cao Zi'an heard this, he walked quickly to the door.

Li Wuji raised his eyebrows, picked up the teacup and took a sip slowly.

As the door opened, a man stood in the doorway, looking inside in a panicked expression.

Las Vegas dude!

"Master Cao..."

"Childe, someone is making trouble in the gambling house, and it has already alarmed the capital guards!"

The guy saluted Cao Zi'an, and then respectfully said to Li Wu, who was sitting in front of the window drinking tea.

"What's the other party?!"

Cao Zi'an turned his head to look at Li Wuji and asked in a deep voice.

"It's a young man who claims to be the son of the military department!"

The guy replied without thinking.

Hearing the guy's answer, Li Wuji narrowed his eyes, remembering what happened on the first floor of the world that day, and then a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"Childe, what should I do?"

"Why don't I go and see first, what news will I get back to my son in time?"

Cao Zi'an hesitated for a moment and said.

"No need, I'll go with you."

Li Wuji smiled, put down the teacup, got up and walked outside.

Soon, several people left the first floor of the world and went straight to Las Vegas.

...

Las vegas.

When Li Wuji came to the gambling house in a carriage, he found that there was a commotion inside, and there were many people gathered outside the door.

Seeing Li Wuji appear, several guys guarding the door hurriedly separated the crowd, cleared a way, and respectfully greeted Li Wuji's arrival.

"Liyanghou is here..."

"There's a good show to watch now..."

Some of the onlookers already recognized Li Wuji, and they were talking in a whisper, with a look of watching the play.

"Childe, look."

As Li Wuji slowly got out of the carriage, Cao Zi'an, who was waiting on the side, glanced into the distance and reminded him in a low voice.

Turning his head in the direction indicated by Cao Zi'an, Li Wuji couldn't help but snort lightly, and a sneer of disdain flashed at the corner of his mouth.

I saw a group of officers and soldiers of the battalion guarding the intersection of the street corners in the distance, standing there in a neat line, not retreating or advancing, as if they were watching a play.

After the incident on the first floor of the world last time, Du Yingwei also learned well, or to be precise, Luo Ping learned well.

Li Wuji ignored it, walked through the crowd, and slowly walked towards the gambling house.

In the hall on the first floor, a young man with seven or eight entourages was dancing and swearing, pointing at Ji Wushuang, the shopkeeper of the gambling house in front of him, with sharp words.

It is the son of the military department, Lu Qingshu!

Ji Wushuang has been running the Ning Xiang Pavilion for many years, and he knows very well the truth of making money with harmony, coupled with Lu Qingshu's special identity, so no matter how many Lu Qingshu falls, he didn't refute a word, and over time, he was so scared that his face was flushed.

Several guys were filled with righteous indignation, and they couldn't suppress the anger in their hearts when they saw it, if it wasn't for Ji Wushuang to stop them, I'm afraid they would have already clashed with Lu Qingshu.

"It's not over for today! The dignified Yang Hou actually secretly instructed you to cheat gamblers out of their money, why is he so shameless?! ”

"Let him come out and kowtow to Master Ben and admit his mistake! Otherwise, if you go to the yamen, I'll see how he ends! Young Master Ben has already asked people to report to the official, and the people from the camp guard will arrive soon! ”

Lu Qingshu pointed at Ji Wushuang and said angrily.

Listening to his instigation, the gamblers who watched the excitement around were also stimulated, and they all felt that the silver they had lost was a little wronged, and they began to talk about it.

"Hear me! Let him come out at once! ”

Seeing that Ji Wushuang didn't say a word for a long time, Lu Qingshu became more straightforward and louder.

"Childe."

At this moment, Ji Wushuang inadvertently glanced up, and then hurriedly saluted respectfully behind Lu Qingshu.

The surrounding gamblers also suddenly quieted down and stopped talking.

Lu Qingshu was stunned for a moment, hesitated and turned his head to look behind him, and then saw that Li Wuji no longer knew when he was standing behind him, he couldn't help but change his face and took a step back.

"Your Excellency is so majestic!"

Li Wuji looked at Lu Qingshu, who was a little surprised, and said lightly, without a trace of expression on his face.

"You've come just in time! Young Master Ben was in a good mood and wanted to come to your gambling house for a pastime, but that dealer cheated Young Master Ben of his money in public! ”

"Young Master Ben has already reported to the official, you can do it yourself!"

Lu Qingshu coughed, puffed up his chest, and said loudly.

The crowd of onlookers also looked at Li Wuji, wanting to see how Li Wuji solved the matter.

"I see, what you mean is for me to return all the money you just lost to you, and then I have to kowtow to you to apologize, so that you will not give up."

"Really?"

Li Wuji looked at Lu Qingshu and asked slowly.

"That's right!"

"But it's not a full refund, it's a tenfold refund!"

Lu Qingshu puffed his chest and said loudly, with a commanding face.

"You also reported to the official?"

Li Wuji continued to ask.

"That's right!"

Lu Qingshu sneered and replied loudly.

"The guards are already here, but they don't even dare to approach the gambling house, do you know?"

Li Wuji pointed in the direction outside the door and asked lightly.

When Lu Qingshu heard this, he couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and immediately whispered to an entourage beside him to go out and check.

"Young Master, it's really here, but... But they were all standing on the corner, as if they were watching the excitement. ”

After reading it, the entourage hurried back and whispered in Lu Qingshu's ear.

Listening to the words of his entourage, Lu Qingshu couldn't help frowning and looked puzzled.

But Li Wuji no longer paid attention to him, turned around and hugged his fists at the onlookers.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I have some personal grievances with this young master that need to be dealt with, please leave first, the gambling house will be open for business today."

"All the silver lost will be refunded twice, can I?"

Li Wuji clenched his fists and looked around and said loudly.

"Thank you, Master Hou!"

When the gamblers present heard this, they immediately showed joy and thanked them one after another.

"Wushuang!"

Li Wuji smiled, turned his head and shouted Ji Wushuang.

Ji Wushuang agreed, and immediately led people to start returning money for the gamblers who lost the money.

After a while, in addition to the people who left Wuji, only Lu Qingshu and seven or eight nervous-looking followers were left in the entire gambling house.

Lu Qingshu glanced at Li Wuji, and then at the dozen or so gambling house guys who were glaring angrily, swallowed his saliva, and couldn't help but feel a little weak.

And Li Wuji pulled a chair nonchalantly, sat down steadily, picked up the cup of tea that Ji Wushuang had poured for himself, and tasted it idly, seemingly completely treating Lu Qingshu as air...
