Zheng Xiu didn't say anything else, she turned and walked into her study.
The man in yellow robe walking on the path outside the study was very satisfied.
Some words are too clear to be meaningful. Over the years, Zheng Xiu didn't pay much attention to the opinions of Jiaodong County's family, and just like what he said, he always implied threats. However, unlike what he said, Jiaodong County has been unable to give a strong response and counterattack to Zheng Xiu's threat.
Zheng Xiu can leave Jiaodong County, without Jiaodong County, she is still the queen of the Great Qin Dynasty, but Jiaodong County cannot leave Zheng Xiu, without Zheng Xiu, Jiaodong County may be nothing.
Even though there are some mysterious and powerful practitioners, they are far less important than Lingxu Sword Sect and Minshan Sword Sect in the hearts of everyone in the Great Qin Dynasty.
Especially after the recovery of Yangshan County and the Lushan League, Jiaodong County looked like a glorious chariot to outsiders, and its momentum reached its peak. However, in Jiaodong County’s own view, this chariot was driving in The edge of the cliff, though powerful, is too heavy, and there is no way to stop it from sliding slowly into the abyss.
Because you can't give up, you can only wait.
It was worth the wait.
At least from Jiaodong County's point of view, with the death of those around Zheng Xiu, Zheng Xiu was almost unusable, and that was when she was the weakest since she became a queen. Even though today's conversation was not pleasant, Zheng Xiu still couldn't take fierce resistance and could only be forced to obey.
And the next spring attack on Chu is too important for Jiaodong County.
So it's as natural as ten thousand streams returning to the sea, all of this has come to the time when Jiaodong County must intervene.
The chariot that has deviated must return to the right track, and it is irreversible to follow the trend, at least this is what the man in yellow robe thinks.
It's a pity that Zheng Xiu didn't think so.
"Even you all think I'm perfect, since I have no weaknesses, how can you defeat me?"
She looked at the white and flawless lotus pods in the Lingquan pool under the courtyard, and heard the footsteps of the man in yellow robe walking away, and said coldly in her heart.
…
Changling Yinyue Gambling House is not the most conspicuous gambling house in Changling, but all Changling gamblers know that this gambling house is the most unique.
In the seemingly ordinary three-entry bungalow, there are dozens of tables scattered on it, but there is a terrible business.
For gamblers, whether a casino is awe-inspiring or not depends first on the size of the water on the table of the casino, and secondly on whether the casino has enough legends.
Silvermoon Casino has both.
Few people can estimate how much cash the Silver Moon Casino has. In the Silver Moon Casino, there is no upper limit on the bets on each table. As long as you can afford it, as long as you dare to bet, the Silver Moon Casino will take it all.
The legend is that someone once lost an overseas fleet here, and someone was penniless, but finally won dozens of shops and a street in Changling.
There are at least a few tables here that handle more cash in one day than the coffers of a wealthy family have in stock.
The larger the plate, the greater the number of high rollers.
In the past, the dozens of tables in this gambling house were almost all crowded, and there was no room for a cone.
However, today, the atmosphere is a bit different. The surroundings of the dozen or so tables in the innermost place seem too deserted.
The source of desolation is the table in the middle, and the bet is the simplest bamboo chip odd or even.
This kind of bamboo chips is unique to some casinos in Changling. Both the croupier and the gambler have a certain number of bamboo chips. Before each bet, both parties can put any number of bamboo chips into the special In the container, the gambler bets on odd or even, and finally counts the number of bamboo chips to determine whether the gambler is right or not.
This kind of gambling method is extremely fair, the bamboo chip and the container where the bamboo chip is placed are both specially made, and even practitioners cannot perceive it.
However, on this table, a middle-aged man with a dark complexion and a very handsome appearance has won more than 20 games in a row, and he is still sitting quietly opposite the dealer. He has no intention of leaving, and it seems that he will continue Win like this.
Apart from this middle-aged man who looked like an ordinary rich man and the croupier, there was no one else at the gaming table.
When the gambling house is unable to determine the other party's cheating methods, the gambling house can bear part of the loss and let the other party leave with the money, but the gambling house is also not a good house, everything has its own rules, if you don't know how to see it, you will accept The truth is, if you continue to sit here and continue to win a lot of money, the only possibility is to intentionally mess up the situation.
The two old shopkeepers in black shirts had been watching a corner of this room for a long time, and finally they decided that they needed to invite a priest inside.
The priest who came out of the inside was a man in blue brocade clothes, with a handsome face. It is reasonable to make an offering in a place like Yinyue Gambling House. With rich clothes and fine food, coupled with being able to become an offering in such a gambling house, it must be a powerful practice. Or, the face will naturally appear much younger than the actual age. However, the man's face looked a little haggard and old, giving the impression that he was in his thirties, but he had a face of forty or fifty years old.
His skin, especially the skin of his palms, is too rough, like a farmer who has been doing farm work all year round.
However, with just a glance, the priest of Yinyue Casino didn't go to the table where he was still gambling, but walked to another table where he was gambling, and sat down opposite a young man.
"Do you want to continue?"
He looked at the young man piled up in luxurious clothes opposite him, and asked without emotion.
The young man smiled, and the middle-aged man who looked very rich stopped his hands on the other table.
"How do you tell?" the young man looked at the priest with great interest and asked.
"You are not interested in gambling, and the winning or losing here is very small in your opinion, so you are not a gambler."
The priest glanced at the rich middle-aged man, then at an idler who was not far from the young man, who seemed to be just watching the fun, and said, "Your cultivation base is not high, but The attention of two powerful practitioners is always on you, so you should be the right master."
The young man laughed, and his smile was full of satisfaction, "Wu Yu, someone's judgment on you is not wrong at all. No matter your mind or cultivation, you are nameless but real."
The priest frowned slightly, "How did you know my name?"
The young man didn't answer, but said as a matter of course: "I already have strong enough counselors by my side, many practitioners, even many assassins and dead men, but I still lack someone like you, A master who is strong enough and able to keep me safe anytime, anywhere."
The two old shopkeepers in black shirts glanced at each other, only to find it extremely ridiculous.
One of the skinny old men smiled gently, but his voice was very cold, "Little brother, I don't know if you know that there used to be a leader named Wang Taixu in the streets and alleys of Changling, and he was supported by Bingmasi." , almost in charge of the entire Changling gambling shop and flower house business, but our Silver Moon Casino is still outside his jurisdiction... "
"I know that your Silver Moon Gambling Shop is considered a loner in Changling, and is a serious business. But what does it matter? Most of the reason why Silver Moon Gambling Shop is able to do this is that you have such a strong priest. The young man looked at the old shopkeeper aggressively, and said, "The key depends on Mr. Wu's own intentions."
The old shopkeeper looked at this young man who didn't know the heights of the sky and the earth, and sneered, "Since you know that there is a character like Mr. Wu in Yinyue Casino, don't you know why Mr. Wu is here?"
The young man looked back at the old man with disdain, and said, "Of course I know that his mother is seriously ill and needs expensive medical treatment for many years, so I am here."
"Don't you understand kindness?" The old shopkeeper suddenly became a little angry, and some of them no longer wanted to talk to the young man, so they wanted to chase away the customer.
"I'm not in a hurry as a young man, so why should you be in a hurry at such an age." The young man looked at the old shopkeeper even more mockingly, and after a pause, he said, "Of course I understand what kindness is, but this Yinyue The gambling house is all my property, and no matter what the Silver Moon Casino spends on him, it is also strictly speaking my kindness to him for so many years. I asked Mr. Wu just to respect his opinion and see if he If you want to stay here, stay by my side."
As soon as he said these words, the two old shopkeepers in black shirts fell into a huge shock.
At this moment, the young man lost his patience, and took out a black carved rhinoceros horn tablet from his pocket, and placed it on the table in front of him.
From the perspective of outsiders, and even other people in the gambling house, the Silver Moon Casino naturally belongs to the property of these two old people, but the two old people are very clear that they are just taking care of the gambling house for others.
This casino has changed hands several times, but the person who owns this carved plaque is the real owner of this casino.
It's just that they never imagined that the current owner of the casino is such a young man.
Wu Xuan had been silently listening to the conversation between the shopkeeper and the young man. Until then, he took a deep breath and prepared to speak out.
"Actually, I don't want you to refuse, because the matter is urgent, and only a practitioner like you can handle it." The young man suppressed his smile, looked at him solemnly, and said, "It will be more dangerous for you to follow me, but if you If I refuse, I will not force it, you are here to help me continue to keep an eye on this casino."
"You are not hypocritical, whether it is goodness or business, you must first make it clear." Wu Yu nodded, looked at the young man, and said, "I will go with you."
The young man stood up, bowed to him earnestly, then put away the carved tablet representing the identity of the owner of the Silver Moon Casino, turned and left.
The two old shopkeepers were a little panicked.
"Leave a walk..."
It was the same old shopkeeper who made the noise before, busy saluting and asking, "How did you win that bamboo chip just now?"
For the two old shopkeepers, this is the business they should care about.
They really couldn't figure it out, it was impossible to do tricks with a single pair of bamboo chips, how could the people under the boss could do tricks, the key point is, since they could do tricks, there might be someone who could do tricks in the future.
"I like violent and direct methods the most. Gambling tools can't be manipulated, but people can buy them. So in the future, if you don't understand something, don't start with dead objects. Change your mind and think about it from people. "
The young man turned slightly sideways, glanced at the two old shopkeepers and the croupier, and said.
The eyes of the two old shopkeepers widened in disbelief.
This problem that I couldn't understand after looking at it for a long time, turned out to be that the few croupiers who were replaced earlier were all bribed by this young man, and they were all big and small, but they were just calculated in advance
How much would it cost to buy off these few croupiers who hadn't had any problems for many years
This is indeed too violent and direct means.
This young boss... is really unusual.
"who are you?"
Wu Xuan followed the young man out of the gambling house, seeing the several carriages and some servants on the carriages, he couldn't help asking curiously.
The young man smiled faintly, "Xie Changsheng."
Wu Huan was taken aback.
"Don't be surprised, my Xie family really doesn't have such means." The young man saw through his thoughts at the moment, and said, "This has nothing to do with my family, and this Silver Moon Casino is just a gift from a friend of mine."
Wu Hong was still a little speechless.
"Amazing, isn't it?" The young man is Xie Changsheng. He still has an air of arrogance, and he smiles, "When it comes to making friends and spending money, I am naturally extremely powerful. If I say that I am the second, I am afraid no one will do it." Can be called the first."
Wu Xuan took a deep breath, and after following Xie Changsheng into the carriage, he asked, "You already have so many powerful retainers and servants, and there are not many people like you in Changling, but you still came to find me on purpose, is it right?" What's urgent?"
"There was an assassination, and all the big shots were involved."
Xie Changsheng looked at the rain outside the car curtain, and his face became extremely serious: "I have a friend who is not convenient to come forward, and I need my help."
