"What are you thinking about?" Seeing that Ren Yaoqi didn't speak for a long time, Mr. Rong asked with a hand in front of her.
Ren Yaoqi came back to his senses and smiled: "It's nothing, it's just for a while."
She wanted to ask the Rong family whether she resented the Yanbei Palace and Xiao Jingxi, but after thinking about it, she felt that this question was not really worth asking.
Xian Wangfu and Yanbei Wangfu are two political forces that can cooperate or oppose each other, depending on the position of the ruler. The winners, the kings, the losers, and the losers are especially ridiculous if they are judged by grievances and hatreds.
Therefore, even though the Yanbei Palace had annexed the power of the Min family before, the Xian Palace is still willing to cooperate with Xiao Jingxi. Even if Li Tianyou didn't like Min Wenqing again, he just stabbed him a few times, and didn't really do anything with him to prevent him from coming in. .
Just now, Ren Yaoqi made some scrutiny on the role of the Yanbei Palace in the ending of the Ren family based on the position held by Xiao Jingxi in the previous life. Although Ren Yaoqi knew that Xiao Jingxi was not the driving force behind the scenes, he could not run away and sit back and watch. Sitting on the table to reap the benefits, there is still no way to resent him.
Xiao Jingxi didn't owe her or dedicate the palace, and he was not a great sage who was always ready to save lives. He was one of the powerful people in Yanbei, and he had his own political stance.
She should even be glad that Xiao Jingxi chose to cooperate with Xianwangfu in this life instead of nibbling away the power of Xianwangfu and then killing them all.
"I heard that the Zeng family proposed marriage to the Ren family?" Mrs. Rong didn't ask further, but asked about Ren Yaohua's marriage.
Ren Yaoqi nodded and affirmed: "Zeng Kui is not a good match, this marriage will not happen."
After hearing this, Mrs Rong gave Ren Yaoqi a thoughtful look, and then smiled: "If there is something you can't do by yourself, you can come and tell me that there are still people who run errands in the grandfather's house."
Ren Yaoqi nodded: "I see, grandmother."
In fact, Ren Yaoqi knew that before the palace of Xianwang really had a relationship with the palace of Yanbei, on the site of Yanbei, there was very little power that the palace of Xianwang could use. She wouldn't be hypocritical when it was time to ask her grandfather's family for help, if it was within the scope of Xianwang's mansion.
When it was almost noon, Yihong came in and replied that Min Wenqing had just left after meeting Li Gan, and did not stay for dinner.
Rong Shi nodded and said nothing.
Ren Yaoqi thought that the Min family was actually very embarrassed in the realm of Xian Wangfu, no matter what his original position was, it was a fact that the Min family betrayed Concubine Wan's trust. Although the Xian Wangfu and Yanbei Wangfu are very likely to come together because of their cooperative relationship, it is impossible for the people in Xian Wangfu to treat Min Wenqing with the original attitude.
Ren Yaoqi left after having lunch at his grandparents' house.
As soon as the carriage came out of the alley in front of Xianwangfu, Ren Yaoqi heard the voice of his uncle Li Tianyou.
"... I said why are you so thick-skinned! Is it interesting to follow me all the way?"
Another voice said helplessly: "Brother Yiming, I just want to see if you really go home."
Ren Yaoqi heard that the voice was Min Wenqing who had left the palace of King Xian before.
"It's none of your business whether I can go home or not!" Li Tianyou was so annoyed that he was followed all the way by the guy he hated, and couldn't help but swear.
Min Wenqing said with a good temper: "Brother Yiming, it's better for you to stay away from the Zeng family. It may not be easy for Zeng Kui to bet on horse racing with you just now."
Ren Yaoqi was shocked when he heard Zeng Kui's name, and hurriedly said, "Stop!"
The carriage stopped in front of Li Tianyou and Min Wenqing.
Ren Yaoqi lifted the curtain of the car and walked down.
Min Wenqing was still dressed as before, holding the reins of the horse in his hand. He was not surprised when he saw Ren Yaoqi, he nodded and said hello.
Li Tianyou scratched his hair, looked at Ren Yaoqi, and squeezed out a smile: "Niece, are you going back now?" He had glared at Min Wenqing fiercely before, but now his face has changed very quickly.
Ren Yaoqi bowed and asked, "Uncle just met Zeng Kui?"
"Ah! You know Zeng Kui too? Oh, yes, he seems to... " Li Tianyou paused when he said this, glanced at Min Wenqing, and did not continue.
Ren Yaoqi frowned and asked, "He said he wanted to bet on a horse race with you?"
Li Tianyou gave Min Wenqing a sidelong glance, then waved his hand and said, "I know, I don't gamble, I don't gamble! Stop preaching! And just now, that kid in Zeng's family couldn't even win with Min's ass, so he was delusional. Play against me? Would I be so stupid to be lowered by him!"
Ren Yaoqi frowned and looked at Qiusheng: "What's going on?"
Qiusheng glanced at Li Tianyou, and then whispered what had just happened.
It turned out that Li Tianyou went to a theater that he liked on weekdays after going out from home today, and took the dozens of folding fans he wrote and sent them out as a reward. Later, the young master of the Su family and Zeng Kui also came.
Zeng Kui saw that Li Tianyou was very familiar, and said that he had long admired Mr. Li and wanted to find a chance to bet on horse racing with him, and the people around him all booed.
Li Tianyou has always been a frequent visitor to this kind of gambling, so it is not surprising that he is invited to bet by others.
However, before Li Tianyou agreed to Zeng Kui's gambling game, Min Wenqing and a few soldiers under his command even appeared in the theater.
Seeing the lively scene, Min Wenqing said that he also wanted to bet a few times, and also said that it is better to bet on Pai Gow on the spot than to hit the sun instead of looking for a day to bet on horses.
Li Tianyou ignored Min Wenqing, so Min Wenqing took advantage of Zeng Kui's coaxing energy to confront Zeng Kui. Zeng Kui had the most trouble before. Min Wenqing said that he couldn't refuse in public if he wanted to bet with him, so he set up on the spot. the gaming table.
The result was just a few rounds of play. No matter how the seats were changed, Min Wenqing won and lost Zeng Kui. Zeng Kui lost all the 500 taels of silver notes he had on him, and also lost the three money that Su Er Gongzi lent him. One hundred taels.
No matter what the purpose of Zeng Kui's coaxing that he wanted to start a gambling game with Li Tianyou at the beginning, his competitive spirit was also aroused at this time, saying that Pai Gow was not fun and time-consuming, so he simply came to bet on dice.
Min Wenqing played with the Pai Gow in his hand and said: "I don't care what I bet on, but since the gameplay has changed, do I have to change it as well?"
Li Tianyou had been watching the fun all the time and didn't end, and now he hides behind the back to come up with an idea: "That's right! Gambling is boring and tacky, and it doesn't fit your identity! Just play big and lose your clothes! Who I have taken off all my clothes, so I have to go for a run on Zhengyang Street with my bare buttocks."
The people who gamble with Li Tianyou on weekdays are all unscrupulous goods, but now they are all joking.
Min Wenqing's expression did not change, but he was still smiling: "I have no opinion, what does Mr. Zeng say?"
Min Wenqing made a statement, Zeng Kui is also a lawless master, and he thinks his gambling skills are very good. He doesn't believe that his luck will be so bad today. Just take their turns.
As a result, after a few rounds, Zeng Kui took off only the last pair of pants.
Min Wenqing didn't always win, he lost twice, but he only took off his belt and jacket.
In the end, the second son of the Su family, who came with Zeng Kui, couldn't stand it any longer. He felt that if he didn't stop it, the matter would not end. He made an excuse to say that the elders in the family sent someone to look for him and asked Zeng Kui to go back with him.
Min Wenqing looked at Zeng Kui's only remaining pair of trousers and whistled: "Betting or not betting on the will of Mr. Zeng, if you want to leave now, will you owe the remaining pair of trousers? I will pay it back next time. I don't mind either."
Zeng Kui squinted at Min Wenqing for a while, then nodded with a smile, and left with Young Master Su.
Qiusheng said in great detail, Ren Yaoqi's eyes twitched as he listened.
Min Wenqing smiled and said, "Speaking of which, I learned my gambling skills from Brother Yiming when I was a child."
Li Tianyou sneered and ignored Min Wenqing's tricks: "I taught you to climb trees with bare buttocks back then, beat birds with your grandfather's treasured chess pieces, and pour tung oil into mouse holes, why don't you show it today? "
Min Wenqing sighed and didn't answer. He bowed to Li Tianyou and said goodbye, "I'll go first."
Li Tianyou rolled his eyes and turned his face to him.
Min Wenqing nodded towards Ren Yaoqi again, then turned on his horse, and before leaving, he paused and said, "Brother Yiming, stay away from the Zeng family in the future."
Li Tianyou said displeasedly: "I eat more salt than you eat rice. I want you to be busy? Get out!"
Min Wenqing turned around and left.
Li Tianyou opened his fan and fanned it vigorously, frowning and not knowing what he was thinking, but when he finally realized that Ren Yaoqi was still there, he smiled a little embarrassedly, and said, "Well, little one. Babies are fun when they're young, and annoying when they grow up."
Seeing that Ren Yaoqi didn't speak, Li Tianyou added superfluous: "Oh, what, I didn't talk about you!" After a while, "Well, I didn't talk about your sister."
Ren Yaoqi: "..."
