Yu Bin thought it was just a simple game of cards, but in fact she had fallen into the trap set by Jiang Xinyue.
What can't you play cards? Why lose for several days in a row?
It's just Jiang Xinyue slowly increasing her appetite.
It doesn't matter if Concubine Yu is addicted. She can't leave the palace anyway, so it doesn't matter if she plays cards for fun.
In the palace, she is either a master or a slave, and she won't lose or win money while gambling, and her family will not be ruined.
Concubine Yu played a pair of flower cards. Jiang Xinyue pretended that she couldn't afford to play. Concubine Yu was proud and deliberately played a three: "I'm afraid that the imperial concubine's loss will be too ugly later, so I'll let you do it!"
Playing right into Jiang Xinyue's hands.
She nodded: "Thank you then. I am a great king. Do you want it?"
Who can afford this?
However, Yu Bi looked down at the cards in her hand, and then at the cards she had just played on the table. She thought Jiang Xinyue had no big cards, so she demolished all the explosives in her hand.
She shook her head with a dark face.
Jiang Xinyue went out with a straight flush, and Concubine Yu's face turned even darker.
"I can't afford it! Then I win!"
She imitated Yu Bin's tone just now and placed the last Xiao Wang card in her hand flatly on a pile of cards: "Oh! I'm so sorry. I'll give you this card. Yu Bin, you have four days." All the cards have been played in vain! Not only will everyone who wins me be returned, but I will also lose all my money! Concubine Yu, won’t you hide and cry for a while?”
Yu Concubine realized later that she had been tricked and it was too late. All her money was taken away by Magpie and Shuangjiang.
Her legs softened and she fell down on the chair: "After all, I lost and had no pants to wear."
Ye Guiren followed Concubine Yu out again. Compared to the cheerful atmosphere last time, today was quite downbeat.
She didn't even dare to talk.
"Chi!"
Yu Bin suddenly laughed: "She was so clever at playing cards that I was stunned. Where did I get the confidence before to think that I could beat her?"
In the past, she and Jiang Xinyue fought to the death. Although she died every time and Jiang Xinyue lived, she never admitted defeat. She always felt that she had a chance to make a comeback and one day she would win.
But after today's game, she completely realized the gap between herself and Jiang Xinyue.
Take playing cards as an example. Ordinary people would never be willing to take out four thousand taels to gamble on uncertainty.
Jiang Xinyue dares.
A few days ago, she lost four thousand taels to concubine Yu. Don't think that four thousand taels is less. The price of goods in the Yan Dynasty was ten taels, which was enough for an ordinary family to live frugally for a year.
Think about how many families can be fed with four thousand taels?
She was not afraid that Concubine Yu would stop after winning four thousand taels and never fight with them again.
Jiang Guifei accepted the 500 taels of kickback Jiang Xinyue gave her, and asked the same question as Yu Concubine: "The Imperial Concubine, you asked me to make an appointment with Yu Concubine, but you gave her money every time, how about you?" Aren’t you afraid that she will run away after winning the money?”
"She won't."
Jiang Xinyue's eyes showed a sly light: "I haven't won a game for four days in a row, and I am still addicted to food. It is a business that is sure to make money without losing money. Why doesn't she come? The gambler made four thousand I still want to make 40,000 yuan, and after making 40,000 yuan, I still want to make 400,000 yuan. Not to mention that Concubine Yu is already holding her breath against me for stealing the emperor’s favor. If she doesn’t win it back in the casino, how can she let me go?”
It’s okay now, all the coffins must have been lost just to express this anger!
However, when Concubine Yu left, her expression did not look like she was resentful of the Imperial Concubine, but more like she had suddenly fallen into some kind of deep thought.
"But it's okay now!"
Jiang Xinyue held Jiang Guibin's face: "Thank you for helping me ask her out. I will definitely refuse when I ask her out. When the emperor's poison is cured, I will ask the emperor to take you out to play together."
She had heard that every year when the emperor came to escape the summer heat, he would pay a private visit incognito. He said he wanted to observe the people's sentiments, but in fact he was more interested in visiting the local area.
There are still several concubines in the harem that the emperor brought back from among the people!
Concubine Jiang blushed and smiled "hehe", the imperial concubine's hands smell so good!
"It is a blessing for a concubine to be able to share her worries with the queen."
This is not flattery, but Jiang Guibi's words from the bottom of her heart.
She seemed to suddenly remember something. She woke up from Jiang Xinyue's attack on her beauty: "Speaking of which, did your Jiang family offend Concubine De or Duke Chengguo?"
When Jiang Xinyue heard the word "virtuous concubine", she immediately became alert and asked carefully: "Why do you ask that?"
Jiang Guibi said with some uncertainty: "Isn't my father the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel? The Ministry of Personnel is in charge of the promotion and promotion assessment of officials throughout the Yan Dynasty. Not long ago, my father sent me a letter saying that after we came to Qinzhou, a director of the Ministry of Punishment would After asking for leave, my concubine’s father felt that the matter was too coincidental, so he secretly investigated and found that the person in charge was actually someone installed by Duke Chengguo. He did not go home even after asking for leave, but went to Duke Chengguo’s mansion. As for Chengguo I can’t find out what the bus did for him.”
Jiang Shangshu was not afraid of anything else, but he was afraid that when Jiang Yankun returned to Beijing, he would find that officials from the Ministry of Punishment had asked for leave from the Minister of Personnel and had caused problems. He really couldn't stand Jiang Shangshu's harsh and vicious mouth.
It would be better to work harder and investigate clearly now than to have Jiang Shangshu scold him bloody if something goes wrong in the future.
Damn it, it is clear that the official department is the head of the six departments, but he is controlled by Jiang Shangshu in everything, and acts based on his eyes.
"Concubine De..."
Jiang Xinyue muttered silently: "When Ma Yiyang, the head of the Punishment Department, comes back, you can ask me again what you just asked me in front of the emperor."
If appropriate, say it in front of the right people.
Whether she has offended Concubine De and her cheap father or Duke Cheng Guo, you have to ask the emperor.
A smart person like the Emperor will give Jiang Guibin an answer.
Jiang Guifei thought for a while and understood what she meant. She nodded vigorously: "I will definitely live up to your trust."
"Uu——"
After the sound of horse hooves, there were corpses all over the ground.
Ma Yiyang wiped the bloody sword clean, his cold eyes full of unabated murderous intent.
There was a ragged young man lying on the ground. If he hadn't rushed out to block the sword for him, he would have been seriously injured even if he didn't die. Then he wouldn't have been able to complete the task assigned by Lord Shangshu.
The cold blade lifted the dying boy's chin, and his tone was as cold as his appearance: "What's your name? Why did you save me?"
The young man squinted his eyes, wearing a mask on half of his face, and said with all his strength: "Zhu... Zhu Jiaerlang..."
After saying that, the young man tilted his head and fainted.
Ma Yiyang quickly drew back his sword to avoid accidentally hurting someone.
"Zhu Erlang?"
The younger brother of the late Queen!
