The battle in the Nuan Pavilion was very fierce. Several rookies kept arguing and yelling. The main point of contention was the understanding of the rules of mahjong.
He eats at the next house and touches the cards casually. Li Sujie accidentally made himself a husband.
I have to admit that dandies have talents in eating, drinking, whoring and gambling that are difficult for ordinary people to match.
After only three games, everyone was already familiar with the rules, and there was no longer any debate about the rules.
After becoming familiar with the rules of the game, the dandies became more and more comfortable in playing cards.
Unfortunately, Li Qinzai failed again, in the hands of these rookies.
It's amazing. He was originally the inventor of the game and the maker of the rules, but his luck stinks more than the stones in the pit, and he doesn't get what he wants.
Li Qinzai's face turned greener and greener, and the veins on his forehead popped. After losing several games in a row, he became more and more irritable, with a suppressed anger in his heart.
When the last one accidentally clicked on Li Sujie's all, Li Qinzai finally broke out.
"Have you done your homework during the winter vacation? Have you paid your father a New Year's greeting? Did you get good results when offering sacrifices to your ancestors to comfort their spirits in heaven? You still have the leisure to gamble and make money." Li Qinzai said coldly.
Li Sujie's hand holding the cards froze, she looked at him inexplicably, and said carefully: "Sir, today is the first day of the first lunar month, and all the donkeys in the village have rested..."
"A donkey has traveled around the world. Can you compare with a donkey?"
Li Sujie looked confused: "Sir, what you mean is..."
Xue Na clicked his tongue and said with a bad smile: "Fourth Prince, what your husband means is that after the spring comes, you will blindfold yourself and work as a donkey to grind. Reading thousands of books is not as good as traveling thousands of miles, and the journey in circles counts."
Li Qinzai pointed at him: "Although the dog doesn't speak human words, he is very relieved."
After the atmosphere calmed down, Li Qinzai felt much less depressed. He just used the topic to play on the topic and almost couldn't afford it. A bad brand means a bad character. He should reflect on himself.
"Come on, let's continue playing cards." Li Qinzai began to shuffle the cards.
Suddenly there was another shuffling sound in the Nuan Pavilion.
Suddenly the light at the door of Nuange dimmed, and the four numb people turned their heads to look at the door, and then their eyes widened in surprise.
Li Qinzai led everyone to stand up, bowed their heads and said, "I pay my respects to your Majesty, the Queen."
Li Zhi and Empress Wu walked in wearing regular clothes and smiling.
"Haha, no gifts, no gifts. As soon as the queen and I entered the door, we heard the hustle and bustle in the side courtyard. We came over to take a look out of curiosity..."
Then Li Zhi saw the mahjong table in the middle of the room and wondered: "Huh? What is this?"
Li Qinzai hesitated for a moment and said, "It's a new thing I came up with when I was bored. It's called 'Mahjong'..."
Li Zhi said happily: "Is this another new thing made by Jingchu? Haha, the things made by Jingchu are always excellent. What is the use of this thing? Can it help me bring peace to the world?"
Li Qinzai was silent for a long time and said: "...playing with money."
Li Zhi:? ? ?
Empress Wu:? ? ?
Li Sujie and Li Xian's necks obviously shrank back.
For a long time, Li Zhi tried to help Li Qinzai step down: "Just to make money?"
Li Qinzai quickly caught the step with quick eyes and hands: "Of course it's more than that. This thing can be played by wise and knowledgeable people to fully exercise physical strength, arm strength and mental strength. The rules are quite simple, but the beauty is like using soldiers. Life and death are determined by one heart. How to win or lose?" Re-establishing order in chaos coincides with the Confucian way of governing the world..."
The more Li Qinzai spoke, the straighter his back became.
When the lies reach a certain level, the person telling the lies will also be hypnotized by himself.
The more Li Qinzai talked, the more he felt that he was really awesome. It turned out that mahjong contained so much philosophy. As he continued to talk, he even noticed that the mahjong tiles on the table were emitting a dense light.
Is that sunlight refraction? No, that is the supreme principle of the universe!
Li Sujie, Li Xian and others also looked at him in surprise. It turned out that what we just did was so great and serious.
Li Zhi and Empress Wu were also more and more surprised. Li Zhi was shocked and said: "Is there such a wonderful thing?"
Empress Wu also praised: "What Jingchu created is really extraordinary. I have learned from it many times."
Li Zhi's big horse golden sword occupied one side of the mahjong table and said excitedly: "Come here and teach me how to play."
Li Qinzai, Xue Ne and others looked at each other in confusion, and after encouraging each other with their eyes, Li Qinzai gritted his teeth and said, that's it, no more trembling.
So Li Qinzai decisively sat down opposite Li Zhi, and Xue Ne sat down. Li Xian moved faster than Li Sujie, and sat down opposite Xue Ne.
The four of them were about to start, but Empress Wu stood quietly behind Li Xian. Some unknown trick was played against Li Xian. Li Xian let out a cry of pain, stood up decisively, and respectfully gave up his position to Empress Wu.
Empress Wu sat down satisfied and reserved.
Okay, one emperor, one queen, one dog, and a table of mahjong.
The combination is a bit strange, and it feels like a couple walking the dog after a meal...
Li Qinzai quickly glanced at Xue Ne. Xue Ne looked worried and excited, rubbing the corners of his clothes uneasily with his little hands. After all, there were not many opportunities for a dandy like him to get so close to the emperor and the empress, let alone sit together in the same room. Playing mahjong at the table, his father didn't treat him like this.
Starting from the beginning, Li Qinzai explained the rules and gameplay, including the game of Kong, Hu, and various Hu cards. Li Qinzai's mouth was dry when he explained it. Li Zhi and his wife finally understood a little bit.
Putting it into practice is worse than talking, and the four of them started rubbing numb.
After a few blows, Xue Ne messed up in fear, Li Qinzai also messed up, and Empress Wu also messed up a lot by accident.
Then, Li Zhi and his wife finally understood the gameplay completely, and their talents were as amazing as the dudes.
This is also easy to understand. Before Li Zhi ascended the throne, he was the king of Jin, and he was also a typical playboy. Li Zhi had done everything that the powerful children of Chang'an City had done.
As for Empress Wu, the only empress player in history, with her shrewd calculations, it is not easy to figure out how to play Mahjong.
"Okay, I understand, let's officially start the fight!" Li Zhi rolled up his sleeves and said loudly.
Empress Wu coughed twice and said softly: "Your Majesty, please pay attention to your manners."
Li Zhi said nonchalantly: "What are you afraid of? Jingchu is not an outsider, and the other two are my sons. Well, there are..."
Xue Ne looked at him innocently.
Li Qinzai tactfully came to the rescue: "There is also a dog...well, the young master of the Xue family. He is young and promising, and has a lot of money. He is a rare enemy on the card table."
Li Zhi said happily: "Yes."
Xue Ne's cheek twitched a few times, and he didn't know whether he should thank the emperor for his kindness.
Li Zhi was already very experienced in rubbing the hemp cards. While rubbing the cards, he said, "Why did Jingchu suddenly create this thing? Is it really just to kill time?"
Li Qinzai sighed: "My original intention was to see that my ancestors were old and their descendants could not fulfill their filial piety all year round, so I created this thing to give my ancestors more entertainment. At the same time, this thing can exercise their brain and physical strength, so that they will not become more confused as they get older." …”
Empress Wu praised: "Jingchu's filial piety is commendable, and this thing is also wonderfully made. I think it will not be long before it will be popular in Chang'an and even the world."
