Si Tian Guan Chapter 179

    The sound of horses' hooves echoed from one end of the long street.

    People who often do business on this road hurriedly put away the tables and chairs unfolded by the street.

    This is the practice these days. Every time around this time, there are important people who have to pass here to return to the palace, and pedestrians avoid it.

    The soldiers of Xiaoying ran along the street to clear the road, forming two teams, waiting for the crowded people in the middle to pass.

    As if not afraid of the heat, Qu Shenzhou took the horse's belly unhurriedly, counted the bluestone slabs, and walked slowly.

    He is looking at Qu Chenzhou.

    The man was so panicked that he dropped the silver to the ground, fell to his knees and didn't dare to look up.

    Qu Chenzhou laughed, didn't care about him, tilted his head and asked, "What is that place?"

    The general answered hurriedly: "Huiqu Sitian, it's a casino."

    "A casino? A good place." Before anyone could react, Qu Chenzhou dismounted: "It's still early today, let's go and have a look."

    As early as when the man at the door knelt down tremblingly, he had already heard it inside. When the soldiers of the Xiaoying battalion filed in and lined up the crowd, everyone in the casino looked towards the door.

    Lights were lit in the casino, and the crowd was crowded. Only a few residual lights came in from the gaps in the windows, and you could see the dust flying in the beam of light.

    When Qu Chenzhou came in with his cloak and curtains closed, it seemed as if he had brought light in, and his eyes instantly brightened.

    The soft boots clicked on the debris that was thrown on the ground.

    He lightly raised his toes and kicked away, looked around, and immediately became quiet wherever he could.

    The wise people stepped back and opened a way, like a sharp axe dividing the water, and it has been split to the nearest table.

    Qu Chenzhou lifted the hem of his clothes, sat down at the table, and replied indifferently: "Sir, each other."

    The shopkeeper came over in person and was about to pour tea for Qu Chenzhou when Liu Chongming raised his hand to stop him.

    "What does Chen tea taste like? Go to the tea shop across the street to get the best Junshan Silver Needle."

    The shopkeeper hurriedly responded and sent someone to take it.

    The dealer seemed to be roasted by two fires at the same time, holding the sieve cup, looked from both sides in embarrassment, and finally set his eyes on Liu Chongming.

    "Look at what I'm doing?" Liu Chongming gestured to the opposite side: "Qu Sitian is a guest, of course we have to look at the request of the guest."

    Qu Chenzhou was looking at the gambling equipment on the table. Hearing what he said, he raised his head and asked, "Is this the casino opened by the prince?"

    "A little trick that doesn't go on the stage, Qu Sitian is laughing - why are you in the mood to come to this place today?"

    "Fresh," Qu Chenzhou looked at the sieve cup in the dealer's hand: "Since the prince said that he would be happy with me, then I would be more respectful than to obey, and ask the prince to play with me, how about it?"

    There was a little commotion in the crowd.

    Nowadays, there is a lot of rumors in the streets and alleys. Who doesn't know why Qu Sitian is favored by the emperor. In the past, people from Qisheng Building also joined in the fun and made Qu Chenzhou divination like a fairy It's like coming.

    Many people still remember how many things were smashed and how many people were injured when Nanya and Jinxiuying were in trouble last year.

    Now the leaders on both sides have changed, but the atmosphere between the two is yin and yang, and it seems that they are more incompatible than last year.

    "Okay," Liu Chongming grinned, but he did not refuse, glanced at the dealer, and said with a smile: "Just play a simple game. After that, Qu Sitian said the points of the two dice. If you say it right, you win, if you say it wrong, I win."

    The people around held back their boos.

    This is too shameful, the prince, and let people guess like a dog, why not go straight to the sky?

    "Bet!" Qu Chenzhou did not hesitate at all, and immediately made the decision.

    "Bring the dice to me and see," Qu Sitian motioned to the dealer: "The reputation of the prince is not good, and I'm afraid that there will be a lot of money on my own site."

    Liu Chongming sneered: "It depends on who is right for this kind of thing, I definitely don't dare to others, but for Qu Sitian, it's worth it."

    The dice was spinning at the tips of her white fingers.

    "What do you say, the prince?"

    "Since you want to bet, you should have a bet," Liu Chongming smiled: "This prince knows that people don't talk secretly, if I lose, I will give you ten thousand taels of gold. Sitian will be a guest in my other courtyard for a month, and let me ask for anything, how about it? Does Qu Sitian dare?"

    "If I win, Qishenglou will give it to me," Qu Chenzhou threw the dice back, took the card from his waist and slapped it on the table: "If I lose, Xiaoying will give it to me. you."

    "Qu Sitian is afraid?" Liu Chongming raised one leg: "It's better to compromise, if you win, the Qisheng Building will be handed over to you, and the house title deed is the same. If you win, how about Qu Sitian and I go back to another courtyard?"

    Qu Chenzhou did not blink: "I bet."

    Some people couldn't help but whisper - this bet really stifled Qu Sitian's weakness, and the Qisheng Building was a shame, and Qu Sitian was afraid that he would take it back no matter what.

    The dealer shook the sieve cup, and the dishonest dice slammed into a clanging sound, which made people feel up and down.

    Liu Chongming glanced casually and asked, "Did Qu Sitian know that the prince was here outside the door, and came in to give him a hug?"

    "I know that the prince is there," Qu Chenzhou stared at the sieve cup, and replied indifferently, "I think that the prince has too much ill-gotten wealth, so I want to share a piece of the pie."

    The gods were fighting in front of them, sparks flew before they fought, and mortals shut their mouths consciously.

    The sieve fell silently, and everyone's eyes fell on Qu Shenzhou.

    "Six..."

    Qu Shenzhou looked around, and then gently spit out the second number: "Four."

    The dealer lightly used a copper rod to pick the sieve cup and opened it skillfully. The two dice on the table didn't move, one was six and the other was four.

    It was as if he had won the jackpot, and there were thunderous cheers around him.

    Qu Chenzhou put away the waist card again, pressed down his hands, stopped the noise of the crowd, and smiled slightly: "I will trouble the prince to spend money, and all the people in the building will retire. I only want the manager of the house. The land deed will be sent to Xiaoying another day."

    Liu Chongming didn't speak, and kept staring at the two dice. Seeing that Qu Chenzhou was about to get up, he suddenly patted the table, and the soldiers behind him flanked forward.

    Everyone in Xiaoying immediately lit up their weapons.

    The temperature seemed to drop to freezing point for a while, and everyone didn't dare to run.

    "Qu Sitian is bullying people..."

    Liu Chongming didn't even finish his words, and when he heard someone outside shouting and rushing into the casino, he was so panicked that he didn't even notice the nervousness at the moment.

    "Prince!" The man fell to his knees on the ground: "The emperor Xuan Shizi will enter the palace immediately!"

    We all know why the emperor called.

    At this time, the news of King Qi's death should be rushed back to the capital by Baili.

    King of Qi Mu Jingde died, those who believed did not say a word, and those who didn't believed would not forgive.

    The fire that rose from the ground burned for a full day, and the wood and shrubs covering the pit entrance were burned into charcoal, leaving a smoking hole.

    The person who turned back to look for it can only wait for the smoke to dissipate there before going down to the cellar.

    However, even the walls inside were burned and peeled off layer by layer, barely able to see two scorched black balls, only a slight touch, the skin and flesh would shatter, and the shape could not be distinguished at all.

    Only one of them can be found holding King Qi's waist card, and the other has King Qi's sword inserted in his sternum.

    No one can tell which is King Qi, and no one can guess what happened here.

    Concubine Ming fainted from crying several times, and she refused to believe that King Qi died like this.

    The emperor not only called Liu Chongming, but also called several princes and important officials in the court, and finally left this matter to Qu Chenzhou to decide.

    Although Liu Chongming could not know in advance who he would send out, he knew that he would not be pointed at him.

    In a few days, it will be the sixth day of the sixth lunar month. Shen Zhou's hexagram is not wrong. The imperial doctor also said that her sister's delivery date is nearby. In any case, he cannot leave the capital.

    Drunken Bone Fragrance.

      Nine is stillborn.

    It was rampant for a while, but then everyone knew to beware of this thing.

    The poisoner is sinister and sinister, if it was in the past, he would definitely think of the queen.

    It is another person's wish to leave a child and leave a mother, and this wish makes him nauseous.

    Liu Chongming stood in the courtyard with his hands behind his back, looking at the door not far away, the lanterns around him cast deep and shallow shadows under his feet, as if stepping on a flower.

    My aunt has been in for a long time, and she only takes time to come out once in the middle. She said that my sister gave birth for the first time, and it will take a long time. Let him be patient and wait.

      Lijing Palace searched before and after.

    The other party either stops, or it can only be someone who enters from the outside.

    Someone outside the palace gate carried buckets of hot water over the threshold. After a while, another bucket of **** water was brought out. Go outside.

    The house was crowded and cluttered, and some spare things were kept in the side hall, and it was not a trip or two.

    Liu Chongming watched them disappear outside the door, and suddenly heard Liu Qingru's shrill shouting from the room, his palms were sweaty, and the whole breath was in his throat.

    The voices of the women who were not flustered gave him some comfort.

     "Don't bark! Go down!"

    "More power! More power! I'm touching my hair!"

    Suddenly someone asked: "What is this?"

    Almost at the same time, the bamboo curtain was lifted, Madam Bai threw out a handkerchief and screamed at him: "Chongming! Drunken incense! The one who just went out!"

    He waved his hand without hesitation: "Go chase!"

    The soldiers behind her swarmed out, and the woman who was still staggering at the end of the road suddenly bumped into the palace servant and disappeared into the night like a fly.

    Liu Chongming stepped quickly on the rocks beside him.

    The two rolled into the depths of the bushes together, and stopped until they hit the rockery.

    The voice of the old lady came from the path: "Prince?"

    "Don't move." He lowered his body and pressed the two together in the shadow: "Wait for another place, I'll call you whatever you want."
