The Book of Troubled Times

Chapter 244

Seeing Zhao Changhe's drinking binge by himself, Huangfu Shaozong was very speechless. This guy really put on a perfect look. If this wave can be famous in Jinghua, everyone's gifts may account for half, and he himself The pose you create is the other half.

Why don't listen to the name, don't use a knife, don't stand up, use one hand, and have too little wine.

He's all pretending, but he does have the ability to be arrogant. If Huangfu Shaozong doesn't make a move himself, no one else can make him move.

He deserves to be famous.

Learned learned.

Until Zhao Changhe finished the bowl, no one came forward to challenge him. It can be regarded as a vivid lesson for the youths of the capital—why the Qianlong list is the Qianlong list.

There are tens of thousands of warriors in the world, and two or three hundred are on the list, why?

If it is not far ahead of its peers, why is it called Qianlong? It is not a track at all, let alone Zhao Changhe, who is also at the forefront of Qianlong!

In particular, Zhao Changhe ranked among the best at the fifth and sixth levels of the entrance, and stood out from a group of peers with seven or eight levels of potential dragons. Only then did people know why.

No name.

Not to mention other people, even Huangfu Shaozong gave up the idea of ​​fighting Zhao Changhe at this moment, he found that he might not be able to beat Zhao Changhe. It's okay to maintain the face of being two places higher than him. In a real fight, what's the use of being able to force out his knife, and give away your ranking for nothing... That's real hospitality.

It’s still as good as it is now. While others are in awe of Zhao Changhe, his eleventh is also highly regarded, isn’t it?

In the silence, the younger brother carried the new wine jar up the stairs with a full face of admiration, and put it in front of Zhao Changhe, nodding and bowing: "Our shopkeeper said, this wine is for the shopkeeper, as a respect for the hero."

Huangfu Shaozong twitched the corner of his mouth: "What's wrong with my young master having no money?"

"No, no, absolutely no such intention."

Huangfu Shaozong patted a piece of gold leaf on the table again: "Go, take another ten jars, and the signature dishes will be served quickly! I treat you, and I made it for you? I'm not stupid."

Zhao Changhe couldn't help laughing: "Brother Huangfu, whether you invite me or not, I am very grateful to you."

Huangfu Shaozong looked at him meaningfully for a long while, then sighed and said, "Is there a stage for you to show yourself in front of you?"

Zhao Changhe clapped his hands and laughed loudly: "Brother Huangfu is also a wonderful person."

Huangfu Shaozong motioned to the left and right: "Take them out."

The servants of Hou's mansion stepped forward one after another, and carried the challenger down the stairs. After the atmosphere was quiet for a while, Huangfu Shaozong finally regained his composure, and poured his wine leisurely: "Brother Zhao, isn't it a bit too ostentatious?"

Zhao Changhe smiled, "Isn't this the stage set by Brother Huangfu?"

"I didn't expect Brother Zhao to be so reckless and arrogant. I thought he would be a little more low-key and modest...after all..."

"Onlookers clap their hands and laugh at the madness... What's the harm in being sparse, what's the harm in being mad?" Zhao Changhe raised his bowl again and drank it down: "It's all here, so what's the use of shrinking? If there is only this little trouble, it will disappoint me instead."

"Boom!" Dark clouds gathered, thunder and lightning, and heavy rain poured down.

It was completely dark.

The noisy restaurant became quiet, the rain outside the window hit the terrace, and there was no sound inside.

Huangfu Shaozong couldn't hide his admiration in his eyes, this man is so interesting, no wonder his sister let him get in touch more.

It seems that when this person enters the capital, there will be turmoil... However, he is sitting on the balcony here drinking wine, and the whole capital is dead silent. Except for the young people who came to challenge Qianlong, the expected turmoil is not at all. Did not happen.

It was as if a person with only six layers of profound entrance had suppressed a capital city.

Even though he knew it was not the case... He came to Beijing unexpectedly, and others did not expect it. Even what kind of attitude should be used to treat him may require a day or two of intense disputes to reach a conclusion. And each has their own scruples, such as his Huangfu Shaozong's identity and the noble concubine standing behind him, have they already proved a certain tendency?

If someone makes a shot, will someone else intercept it, and then everything will be on the table, who wants it?

The battle for the royal family should be done with caution, no one dares to take the lead easily. Xia Longyuan is still alive...

So he let him laugh and scold wildly, and the capital was silent.

Where is the tiger's den and Longtan, but that's all!

Knowing the reason, Huangfu Shaozong still couldn't help admiring him. Going to Beijing at the sixth level of the Xuanguan, as the leader of the wind and cloud, facing countless lists of heaven, earth, people, and powerful forces, who can do this?

In the eyes of those who care about it, it almost declares who is better than me in today's domain!

On the tower in the distance, Tang Wanzhuang watched quietly, her beautiful eyes gradually blurred. On the other side opposite her, Suzaku raised his arms.

"Brother Huangfu." The cups and cups were staggered, the night was getting dark, Zhao Changhe seemed to be drunk: "Is there a casino here? My little brother is free to gamble."

I thought you were going to ask if there are prostitutes here... Opposite is Yihonglou, I'll give you a ride there, my sister can't scold me, so why ask the casino?

I haven't heard that this person is good at gambling... Could it be that he is gambling with his life?

Huangfu Shaozong thought about it, and said slowly: "Yes... at the end of this street, just around the corner is Anle Casino."

"Yo, Kangle, Anle, chain?"

Huangfu Shaozong shook his head: "I've never heard of Kangle Casino."

"Oh..." Zhao Changhe tapped his head: "That broken gambling house is far away in Jianhu, so it's not surprising that you young masters in the capital haven't heard of it... How about it, come and play with me?"

"I still can't, my family is extremely strict with this punishment... I'm afraid that my sister will break my leg if she finds out. If Brother Zhao wants to go, it's up to him."

"Okay, I'll go play by myself."

Amidst the wind and rain, Zhao Changhe staggered out of the restaurant: "It's over, thank you Brother Huangfu for your hospitality."

Huangfu Shaozong stood upstairs and looked up and down. He didn't know why Zhao Changhe was going to the gambling house, but he knew why Zhao Changhe went out alone on purpose, so he deliberately didn't go to see him off.

The straight avenue, the rainy long street. The left and right lanterns sway and creak in the rain, interweaving with the crackling sound of the rainstorm, forming a unique symphony.

Pedestrians are few, passing by with umbrellas in a hurry, and a staggering drunk walks in the middle of the road, as if there is no one else around.

If there is a flash of sword light at this time, isn't it particularly appropriate?

However, until Zhao Changhe finished walking the rainy night long street, there was no movement.

Zhao Changhe thought he didn't drink enough, took out the wine gourd and took another big sip, then laughed and said, "Jinghua Yanyun, that's all! It turns out that the pure Mr. Dai can bring the most straightforward answer. , think too much!"

No one knows who "you" refers to, and everyone who hears it thinks it refers to themselves.

It's a pity that the real "you" is still in Sixiang Sect.

"Bang!" Zhao Changhe staggered and pushed open the door of the casino.

The guard hurriedly stopped him: "My lord, you are not allowed to bring knives into the gambling house."

Zhao Changhe squinted at him, and grinned: "What if I bet on this knife?"

"Boom!" There was another thunder in the sky.

A sigh finally came from the gambling house: "No one in the capital dares to accept this bet."

Zhao Changhe smiled and said, "Don't you dare to take the eighth place in the Tianbang?"

"Don't dare, let alone the fifth master is not here, we dare not make this decision for him." The man said leisurely: "But it's okay to let the young master bring a knife in... The gambling house is not just a gambling house, there are the best ones." Hot spring water, the best croupier, accompany you on this trip."

"Not bad, you are more interesting than Huangfu Shaozong."

"There are too many scruples in the prince's house, no matter Huangfu or Cui Tang. I don't care so much about recklessness in my generation. When guests come, I just welcome them. Please, my lord."

"Who says we are particular?" Baoqin's angrily voice came from behind him: "Young master Zhao is a friend of my young master, and he helped our family break the Maitreya conspiracy. Huangfu Xiaohou Ye will receive it on his behalf."

Zhao Changhe twitched his mouth, what are you doing, I have something to do!

Shouldn't I be anxious to hear a croupier accompany the hot spring...

The person in the gambling shop was also a little helpless: "Since Miss Qin said so, we have no reason to force customers, please go ahead."

Before the words were finished, Huangfu Shaozong came in a hurry: "Well, brother Zhao, although I can't accompany you into the gambling house, the guest courtyard at home has been fully furnished, and the maid is gentle..."

Before finishing the same words, a sharp voice came from a distance: "Empress Yizhi, please see Zhao Changhe in the palace."

As if the wind and rain had stagnated for a beat, Zhao Changhe laughed loudly: "What kind of empress, what kind of head, what kind of lord. I want to enter the gambling house, what does it have to do with you?"

After talking to no one, he walked in the door.

Huangfu Shaozong opened his mouth, closed it again, and ran away holding the piano and crying.

There was an old eunuch standing in the distance, trembling with anger: "It's unreasonable..."
