Dice, fine wine, and martial arts, if he could only choose one of these three, Du Chuanyun would be embarrassed. If he just ranked them in order of preference, he would choose martial arts without hesitation, and use martial arts to fight and make money. Speaking of his heart, in order to make this moment perfect, he turned around and picked up a glass of wine that he didn't know belonged to from the table and drank it.
"Kill one two thousand taels, is there an upper limit?"
Chai Yun smiled and shook his head.
"Catch Cui Teng 10,000 taels alive and kill him?"
Chai Yun put away her smile, "You are only allowed to be caught alive, not to be killed."
Du Chuanyun frowned, and was about to say something, when he noticed Zhang Youcai kept kicking himself with his toes, and suddenly remembered, this is not a gathering of heroes in all corners of the world. Marquis Juan poked lightly on his arm, "My sword only listens to Marquis Jun's arrangement."
Chai Yun laughed loudly, "The sword of loyalty is the best sword in the world, Hou Juan, I really envy you."
Han Ruzi smiled and said, "The sword is a sharp sword, but it cannot be easily unsheathed."
Chai Yun's smile disappeared faster than the wind, "Why, don't you want to play?"
"I want to play, but I'm afraid I can't afford it."
The scene was a little embarrassing. Chai Yun looked at Marquis Juan coldly and waved. The guests and servants left one after another. Du Chuanyun and Zhang Youcai only left after being signaled by Marquis Juan.
There were only two people left in the room, and Chai Yun said, "Looking at the entire capital, few people dare to invite you to come."
"Chai Xiaohou has the courage."
"How many people want to play with me, I don't like it, but you don't know how to cherish it."
Han Ruzi didn't know whether to laugh or cry, the other party seemed to be younger than him. So he said seriously: "I'm here, this is treasure, but there are some things I don't understand."
"Is there anything you don't understand?" Chai Yun tilted her head and stared. More like a child.
"I heard that you and Cui Teng have a good relationship, how can you turn against each other?"
"Are you interested in this kind of thing?" Chai Yun felt that Juan Hou's reaction was strange.
"Let's be honest. I also had some holidays with the Cui family, so..."
Chai Yun patted Huanhou's shoulder heavily, and smiled: "That's why I came to you. I heard that when you were emperor, the Cui family always wanted to abolish you and let the East Sea King ascend the throne. , the result was that the bamboo basket was empty, which made me laugh to death."
Chai Yun is moody. In a twinkling of an eye, he was as casual as his own brothers, "As for me and Cui Teng, yes, we used to be friends, we were very angry, and we played well, but this guy is too unscrupulous, he actually robbed my woman. !"
Chai Yun stomped her feet fiercely, Bai Run's face flushed red, and her eyes were full of anger. It seems to have a great grievance.
"Cui Teng molested Chai Xiaohou's wife and concubine?" Han Ruzi was really surprised.
Chai Yun looked at Hou Juan with weird eyes, "Even if you are a biological brother, don't want to see my beloved wife and concubine, and Cui Teng can't do it."
"Chai Xiaohou's woman is..."
Chai Yun laughed loudly. "Wanhou is really... inexperienced. When I say 'my woman', of course I mean other people's women, not me. I can choose any woman I want, let alone Xiaojiabiyu, even if it is the daughter of a lady or a general, I can still succeed. For example, the daughters of the Cui family..."
"Huh?" Han Ruzi unconsciously revealed an angry look.
Chai Yun was not arrogant at this time, and hurriedly smiled and said: "Damn. I forgot that Mrs. Juan Hou is also a Cui family member, don't worry about the Cui family. The Cui family is very strict. I mean if it wasn't for Cui Teng's face... Forget it, let me put it another way. For example, the daughter of a certain general was coaxed by me a month after she got engaged. She got married last month, and she is still writing to me now, asking for an appointment. Bye bye."
Chai Yun was triumphant, and Han Ruzi was extremely disgusted, but her face did not show, "Cui Teng stole the general's daughter?"
"No, she's not absolutely gorgeous, it's fine if you get it, Cui Teng wants it, just give it to him. It's another, the daughter of Marquis Guiyi, I've spent nearly a year on her, and I've just gotten some eyebrows recently. , Cui Teng came out halfway, relying on the power of his father Cui Taifu, he actually went to propose a marriage. Cui Teng clearly knew what was on my mind, if Hu You were to marry into the Cui residence, how could I still have a chance?"
"Hu Yu?"
"Daughter of Marquis Guiyi, you haven't heard of it, have you?"
Han Ruzi shook his head, "Marquis Guiyi...is the Huns who surrendered to the Great Chu?"
"That's right, the current Marquis Guiyi is of the second generation, and his daughter Hu You—tsk tsk, everyone who has seen him says that he is unparalleled in the world, the Cui family... I'm not talking about the Cui family. You Wu, everyone doesn't know her boudoir name, so they call her Hu You, the stunner of the Hu people." Chai Yun looked longingly, "If I get this girl, I am willing to lose ten years of life."
The disgust in Han Ruzi's heart deepened, and he smiled: "Cui Teng proposes a marriage, you can too."
"Hey, who let me get married early, now I have one wife and three concubines, even though Marquis Gui Yi has no power, but he has a bit of backbone, he is determined not to let his daughter be a concubine, Cui Teng is not married yet, so he took advantage. Give me a little more time, even if it's only a month." Chai Yun waved her fist resentfully.
"So you and Cui Teng became enemies because of this."
"Cui Teng not only proposed marriage first, but also came to warn me not to disturb his wife who hasn't been there, or he will cut off ties with me. I'm afraid of him? Mrs. Cui is now in control of the Southern Army, but he won't be proud for long. It's a pity that Hu You, married When you get to the Cui family, you have to follow a piece of bad luck?"
Han Ruzi initially suspected that this was a trap. The longer he got along with Chai Yun, the less he had doubts. This person was so shameless and naive, he didn't know his ugliness at all. To say that this kind of person could act, and was not leaking, just like Du Chuanyun suddenly. It's as incredible as being a sycophant.
But he still had a few questions left, "I understand, Chai Xiaohou was bullied and wanted revenge, but can fighting stop the Cui family from marrying?"
"I just need to let Cui Teng delay for a while. After I enjoy Hu You, Cui Teng can take over if he wants to." Chai Yun chuckled smugly, and Han Ruzi had to admit it. Even at this time, Chai Xiaohou was still very handsome.
Han Ruzi pondered for a moment, "The Chai family can't find anyone who can fight. Why do you have to use my entourage?"
Asking here, it shows that Hou Juan has been somewhat moved. Chai Yun was shameless, but not stupid at all. She turned her back to the door and said in a low voice, "It must be Marquis Juan and a master from Marquis's family who can teach Cui Teng a lesson."
"Oh, I don't think so."
"Because of the East Sea King."
"What's the matter with him?" Han Ruzi was coming for the King of the East Sea. He didn't expect to go around and heard these three words just now.
"We are not ordinary people. When we fight, we not only look at who has the most power, but also the status. For example, if the other party has a fifth-rank civil official, we must have at least a fifth-rank military general, and it will be shameful if we are lower, and we may also cause trouble. Come to trouble, the old guys from the Ministry of Rites and Zongzheng Mansion, don't care about anything else, as soon as you hear the words 'the following commits', it is like a hungry tiger rushing for food. Whether it is right or wrong, read a book first."
Han Ruzi didn't expect Xungui's children to fight like this, so he shook his head and smiled: "King Donghai wants to stand up for Cui Teng?"
"That's right. There are not many princes and kings in the capital. Either they are too old or they are too timid. Marquis Juan is higher than the princes, and has a festival with the Cui family. It is suitable for you to deal with the king of the East Sea. As for Marquis Tien's That master, he is from Jianghu, he can walk away if he causes trouble. It is much more convenient than his own servants, but it is really not good. It doesn't matter if you hand it over."
Han Ruzi shook his head, "There are only a few people in my house. I can't stand the loss."
Chai Yun smiled tacitly, and said in a lower voice, "Zhang Yanghao told me that Hou Juan likes dice, but I understand your pain."
"My troubles? What are these words?"
"I treat Marquis Juan as a friend, and Marquis Juan don't take me as an outsider. You, Marquis, have a vacant position. Apart from a small salary from the imperial court, you have no money left, but you have a lot of expenses. You say that you like dice, but you actually like it. Gold and silver. Of course, who doesn't like it? But the world is so unfair. Some people are trapped in money and have no way to ask for help, while some people can't spend the money. Make friends. I, Chai Yun, talk about friendship. To tell you the truth, I never spend money on women. At most, I will give you a few cheap jewelry, sachets, sweat towels, etc. But to friends, you go Ask and ask, has Chai Xiaohou ever been stingy? Cui Teng said that he was the son of Taifu, and it cost me nearly 10,000 taels of silver over the years.
Han Ruzi heard enough, "Can Du Chuanyun get 10,000 taels for capturing Cui Teng alive?"
"Marquis Juan earns five times as much as he does, but I won't say this to outsiders, and I will never make Marquis Huan look ugly." Chai Yun still understands this rule, "How is it?"
"It won't really cause trouble, will it?"
"At most, a few servants and martial masters will die. What else can happen? Marquis Tien takes care of his sword, just don't let him stab him. Everyone else knows the rules and won't really attack the young masters."
"Well, listening to you, it's interesting."
"It's very interesting, if we win, Cui Teng and King Donghai won't be able to lift their heads for a year, and Hou Juan's revenge has been avenged, and there is still a lot of money to take. If you are short of money in the future, just let me know. "
"It's nothing to do with money..." Han Ruzi would also be half-assed, this kind of skill doesn't need to be taught.
Knowing that it was over, Chai Yun put her arms around Hou Juan's shoulders and said with a smile, "Of course, we're talking about friendship. Come, call everyone in, get drunk and rest, and then go to Cui Teng to take revenge."
"Just tonight?"
"Yes, it's tonight, but I have to wait for Lord Hengyang to go to bed. The ancestors like me the most. They have to look at me every day to fall asleep at ease. Today is her birthday, and I can't let her down."
Shameless was a filial grandson, but Han Ruzi's impression of Chai Yun could not be changed, "It's definitely not possible tonight, you can choose another time."
"But I've already made an appointment with Cui Teng."
"That won't work either. I have to go home tonight, and Du Chuanyun isn't ready either."
Chai Yun didn't seem very happy, but she didn't insist, and slowly let go of Juan Hou, "Okay..." Suddenly grabbing Juan Hou's shoulder, "Wan Hou won't be blown by the wind on the pillow, right?"
"No, I can't be relatives with the Cui family."
Han Ruzi insisted on returning to the mansion. The person he was looking for was not Cui Xiaojun, but Meng E. If there was a trap set up by the East Sea King, he had to be protected.
