Chapter 044: Down-and-out Xiucai

Although Qu Yunchu didn't dare to assert her conjecture, this was the only reason why she could think of Lu Wenqian's abnormality at present.

Since he wanted to sing, he had to cooperate with him to finish singing this play.

It's just that she, a person from the Xuanmen, enters the gambling house to gamble and only loses and not win, which is not embarrassing.

After all, he is not such a mediocre charlatan, who can tell the difference between life and death, how can he not see through a simple gamble.

As soon as she entered the door of the casino, she could clearly see the number of dice under the dice box on each table.

"Ah, my see-through eye is a sin and a sin."

Qu Yunchu muttered to himself.

If you really win the silver in the hands of those decrepit ghosts with a clear conscience, you will not be struck by thunder from the sky.

She had to pretend that she had never seen the world and continued to walk inside, and walked slowly to the slightly dark corner of the corner, when she heard someone shouting excitedly:

"There are ten turtles under the pair, and there are no poor people under the Son of Heaven."

This was followed by the sighs of a group of people.

"Zhang Xiucai, you lost again, you will pay for it."

Qu Yunchu turned his head to look, only to see a group of people excitedly dividing the silver in front of a young man with an embarrassed figure.

The young man drooped his head and became depressed, staring blankly at the scattered silver taels on the pai gow table.

And above his head, there was a hungry imp sucking on the aura that was almost exhausted in his body.

"Hey."

Qu Yunchu glared at the little ghost viciously, the little ghost raised his eyes and sensed that something was wrong, and immediately panicked, and disappeared into the gambling house in a puff of smoke.

The young man who was called Zhang Xiucai glanced at Qu Yunchu, then got up and walked towards the door lonely.

"Hey, the Lu family is not shallow in harming people, a good scholar has been tortured to become such a field today."

Someone sighed with regret.

Hearing that someone was accusing the Lu family, Ji Zhen's face suddenly darkened, and he was about to teach that person a lesson, but he was repulsed by Qu Yunchu's eyes.

She sat down next to the man with a smile and asked with great interest: "Why does Your Excellency have such a sigh, the Lu family is also a famous nobleman, how can you embarrass a scholar?" ”

The man glanced at Qu Yunchu, and saw that she was dressed in a good silk and satin, and she was very delicate and eye-catching, and the female envoys who followed her were also not simple to wear, and at first glance she was either rich or expensive.

Such a person would indulge their female dependents to come to the casino, I am afraid that it is not a clear stream, and smiled with disdain: "The little lady is so leisurely, but this place is not the place you should come to after all." ”

After speaking, I was in a hurry to get up.

"Eh, the door of the casino is open to the east, and there are guests from the south to the north, as long as there is silver, there is no gender of high or low."

Qu Yunchu casually took out a stack of silver tickets and put them on the table, pretending to sigh sadly:

"Don't hide it from Your Excellency, the clumsy husband is sick in bed, he is a weak and can't take care of himself, and the family business in the house is quite rich, but I can't take care of a woman's family, and I have to do something to make the people in the house look down on me, a while ago, a master approved a hexagram for me, saying that I have partial wealth, and I wonder if coming to the casino is not the place to make money."

Ji Zhen and Ke Yan couldn't help frowning as they listened.

If the second master listens to this, it will be fine.

The man was overjoyed, and said in his heart: I'm afraid that he is a stupid white sweet who has been deceived by charlatans.

looked at the silver ticket in her hand, and sat back reluctantly.

Qu Yunchu smiled, asked people to change the pai gow on the table, and invited him to play dice.

In less than a cup of tea, he lost hundreds of taels of silver to this person.

Seeing that this person's face was full of joy, Qu Yunchu turned the topic back to the previous thing.

"I looked at that Zhang Xiucai's face when he went out, I'm afraid it won't be because he lost all his money and wanted to find a short time, right?"

The man frowned, he didn't want to mention it again, but he couldn't help winning the woman's money.

Thinking that she was an unknown woman, it was only out of curiosity, so he lowered his voice and spoke to her.

"Didn't the little lady fall in love with this Sheng?"

He first made a joke with a hippie smile.

"Hugh is talking nonsense."

Ke Yan glared at the man angrily.

Only then did he restrain his smile and was a little more solemn.

"To say that this Zhang Sheng is indeed born with a good skin, and quite talented, it is understandable that the little lady has a sense of pity, but I want to advise the little lady that this person can't be touched, he has offended someone who shouldn't be offended."

"How?"

Qu Yunchu asked as if nothing had happened.

The man came closer and continued: "He was originally a student of the Crescent Moon Academy outside Jingbei Pavilion, but because of his false words, he was good at discussing court politics, and he also slandered the Lu family for colluding with the court magnates to oppress the good, especially the Lu family's Young Master Sun's disregard for people's lives was even more popular. ”

"Grass and human life?"

Thinking of his past encounters, Qu Yunchu looked slightly stunned.

"yes."

The man smiled disapprovingly: "Just a few months ago, this Zhang Sheng sued the young master of the Lu family in a neighboring county, saying that he witnessed this person murdering a traveling doctor in the rivers and lakes. ”

"Indeed...... Slightly heard. ”

Qu Yunchu nodded hesitantly.

My heart is sour and warm.

He didn't know that Zhang Sheng, but he was upset for himself, this chivalrous heart is really rare.

"This young master of the Yan Dynasty of the Lu family was born handsome and beautiful, in my Dayue Dynasty, it can be said that he is calling for wind and rain, how can there be a shortage of women around him, how can he bully a Xuanmen woman if he has nothing to do, and he will kill people, isn't this a big joke?"

The man couldn't help but sigh and shook his head: "It is said that Zhang Sheng wants to deliberately threaten the young master of the Yan Dynasty to get some benefits, although I don't believe it, but the facts are in front of me, and there is no room for doubt." ”

The reason for this is that Qu Yunchu is not easy to talk to outsiders, but asks: "Since the government released Zhang Sheng back to the township, it can be seen that the Lu family did not pursue this matter, why did Zhang Sheng go to Hongshun Gambling House to gamble again?" ”

"Young Master Yan Dynasty has a large number of them, and if he doesn't care about this little thing, it doesn't mean that the people around him can swallow this evil breath."

The man said: "The young lady of the Lu family, Hua, has a nephew named Hua'an, he heard about this, and specially rushed to Yanyang City from his hometown Shu County, and it is no coincidence that the book is not written, Zhang Sheng's lady Li has a younger brother who has lost money in Shu County.

This debt went around and around and fell into the hands of Hua'an, which was only four or five hundred taels of principal silver, but now it has reached thousands of taels, and the Li family can't take out this silver, so Hua'an deducted the Li family's old and young, and sold Zhang Sheng's bride who did not pass the door into the Qinglou. ”

"How can this be reasonable, this is not known to be a persimmon to pick a soft pinch, that Zhang Sheng is a student of Crescent Academy, they are not embarrassed, so they will vent their anger with the Li family."

Ji Zhen clenched his fists indignantly: "When did the young lady become so unreasonable, and she didn't care about her nephew." ”

Qu Yunchu smiled coldly, I am afraid that this matter was instigated by Lu Yanchao and his mother behind his back.

The man always felt strange when he heard Ji Zhen's words, and hurriedly said: "This little brother can't say that, it is an indisputable fact that the Li family owes the Hua family money, even if it goes to the government, it is reasonable, not to mention that there is the Lu family behind Hua'an, and the government has to weigh it." ”
