    The buzzing casino in the inner city of Wuchang, even though the time is close to the second watch, the casino is still brightly lit and crowded with people. Every gaming table is crowded with soldiers of the Wu army who stayed up late to gamble, including generals, deputy generals, and soldiers.  There are military academies and even gang leaders, all of them are yelling, yelling, betting bets, or cursing luck  Too bad or laughing and lucky enough, the noise almost knocked down the roof of the house¡ªand the loudest one was naturally Wu Yingqi, the second prince of the Pingxi Palace, General Wu.

    "Damn! Why don't you be ten again? I didn't touch the white tiger last night? Why is my luck so bad?! Damn look at this, son of a bitch! Three o'clock! I'll fuck your ancestor eighteen  Dai, three o'clock¡ª¡ª! I'm so mad!"

    "Hahahahahaha, Second Prince, I'm sorry, the younger one is plum blossom, and I won you again! Hahahaha!"

    "Laugh! Have a laugh! I don't believe it, you can keep winning tonight!"

    Different from most of the time, Wu Yingqi's luck tonight was obviously not good enough. He lost thousands of taels of silver in more than three hours. For Wu Yingqi who loved money like his life, it was undoubtedly a heartbreak  The painful blow of cutting off the flesh and the root of the crotch caused him to lose so much that his eyes were red, his pigtails stood upright, his nostrils were panting heavily, his expression was so fierce that he was about to eat people, and the poor domino dice was smashed even more by him.  Bang bang, almost shattered.

    "The God of Wealth is here!" At this moment, there was a sudden commotion at the gate of the casino, and countless Wu soldiers cheered loudly, shouting: "General Lu, come to our table, come to our table quickly!" "Lord Lu, come to our table!"  Come to our table, we will give you a seat!" "Brother Lu, don't listen to them, come to our side, we will give you a seat by the fire!"

    Shouting, countless soldiers of the Wu army rushed forward impatiently, trying to drag Fatty Lu who had just entered the door to his gambling table.  When Wu Yingqi saw his most proud student enter the arena, his eyes lit up immediately, he grabbed the dice, and shouted loudly: "Yifeng, come here, I'm here to sit in the dealership, come here and make some bets, help me get lucky!"

    There is definitely a reason why Fatty Lu is so popular in the Wu Jun casino. As we all know, Fatty Lu is invincible on the battlefield, but he is invincible in the casino. After joining Wu Jun for a few years, every time he entered the casino, he lost everything.  Clean and tidy, never took away a tael of silver or a copper coin from Wu Jun soldiers in the casino.  What's even more rare is that Fatty Lu is not only rich and powerful, but also extremely good at gambling. No matter how much he loses, he never criticizes the world like Wu Yingqi for a small loss. No matter how miserable the loss is, he always smiles  He smiled and didn't care. It would be unreasonable for such a gambler not to be welcomed in the casino.  Therefore, because of this, it is rare for Fatty Lu to take time out of his busy schedule to enter the casino once, so he is naturally welcomed and expected by everyone.

    "Yifeng, niece and son-in-law, come here! Come here!" Wu Yingqi was afraid that Fatty Lu would be snatched away by other gaming tables, so he hurriedly shouted.  But at this moment, the two people who followed behind Fatty Lu shocked all the Wu Jun gamblers present. The yelling and greetings stopped at the same time, and Wu Yingqi's yelling also suddenly stopped, and she exclaimed: "Brother-in-law!"  , Mr. Liangchen, did you go to the wrong door? Why are you here today?"

    "What are you looking at me for? Can I eat people?" Hu Guozhu, who is in charge of Wu Jun's military discipline, had a very kind expression on his face. He smiled and waved his hands and said, "Go ahead and play with you. Our Pingxi Palace has no regulations that the army is not allowed to play money, as long as it is not escaped from the post."  If you come here to gamble, you can play whatever you want. Just be careful, don¡¯t lose your pants too¡ªit¡¯s so cold, it¡¯s a bad life to go out without wearing pants.¡±

    "Hahahahaha" All the soldiers of the Wu army laughed loudly, and the atmosphere suddenly relaxed again. Wu Yingqi also let out a long sigh of relief, patted his chest and muttered: "I was scared to death, I thought it was the father who suddenly banned gambling, sent me  My brother-in-law is here to grab the bet."

    "Second Prince, how's your luck?" Fatty Lu leaned over and asked with a smile, "How much did you win?"

    Wu Yingqi first took a look at Hu Guozhu and Wang Shirong behind Fatty Lu, and found that they were all smiling and relaxed, so he replied cursingly: "Win a ball! I lost more than a thousand taels! How about it, come up and help me make money."  Hands?"

    "Okay." Without saying a word, Fatty Lu immediately pulled out a two hundred taels of silver note from his sleeve, and threw it at the Tianmen position, which scared the surrounding Wu army soldiers to quickly put away the chips placed at the Tianmen position, and bet on the green dragon and white tiger instead.  position, for fear of getting the bad luck that Fatty Lu's casino will lose.  Wu Yingqi laughed loudly, threw the dice, and distributed Pai Gow quickly. As a result, Fatty Lu's nickname of "losing every bet" is really unfounded."Hope, go do your best for the prince's great affairs, charge into battle, and give full play to his strength as a brave general.  Besides, he is still the only son of the prince. If he is really a good man, the prince also has a heart for him. Why not help him with all our strength?  What's wrong?  "

    Wang Shirong was silent, and it took a long time to shake off Fatty Lu's collar, and said angrily: "I can't win your mouth, anyway, just this time, next time you dare to talk nonsense, I will be the first to ask the prince to chop your head off!"

    "What Yifeng said makes a lot of sense." Hu Guozhu was calmer, and said slowly: "Mangou killed our son at any cost, which proves that Mangou has also noticed this huge hidden danger of us, and this hidden danger will sooner or later  It will also explode. Instead of worrying about it and muddling along, it is better to list the second prince as the one we consider whether we can help, so as to avoid sudden events in the future and cause even greater disasters."

    "What he is best at is this set of strong rhetoric." Wang Shirong said angrily: "I don't want anything else now, but I just want the prince to kill all the dogs earlier, restore the Han family, and become emperor!"

    "Mr. Liangchen is right." Fatty Lu took over the conversation and said, "At present, the most important thing for us is to destroy the Tartars, restore the Central Plains, and assist the prince to rule the country and proclaim himself emperor. For the second prince, we  As long as we stabilize him temporarily and prevent him from doing stupid things, then when that day comes, no matter how great the hidden danger is, it will not matter to us."

    Hu Guozhu and Wang Shirong silently nodded silently, expressing their great agreement with Fatty Lu's words.  Fatty Lu quickly changed the subject, and said in a low voice: "Uncle, Kong Sizhen is one of the second batch of negotiating teams at the Mangou court. This bitch is best at seducing and buying with her beauty, and she might even use me and Wang  Xu's special relationship, he also bribed me. My nephew thinks that this is an opportunity to help us with a big event."

    "What big event can you help us with?" Hu Guozhu asked back as expected, diverting his attention.

    "Find out the truth about the son's murder." Fatty Lu said in a low voice, "Xiao Zhi has always wondered whether our son really died at the hands of the remnants of Obai's party?  With his body already dead and his followers scattered, how could the old thief Oboi send out his killers to sneak into the dungeon so easily and kill our son?"

    "It's not just you, I've been suspecting this too." Hu Guozhu nodded, and replied in a low voice: "It's just that there is no evidence to prove that this is actually the work of Emperor Kang Mazi."

    "Kong Sizhen must have evidence in his hand!" Fatty Lu said decisively: "Kong Sizhen is the head of the Mangou Thirteen Yamen, if it is really the murderous hand of the Mangou Emperor, he must have sent her men to be the killers, Kong Sizhen must know about it,  There must be evidence! That's why my nephew intends to make false claims with her, and try to get these evidence out of her hand, so as not to let the son die wronged in Jiuquan!"

    "Yes." Hu Guozhu nodded, and said in a low voice: "If you can find out the truth about the death of the son from Kong Sizhen, you can not only comfort the spirit of our son in heaven, but also greatly damage the authority and prestige of Emperor Mangou, and give us more confidence."  Make an excuse for war at any time, and do your best."

    "There is one more thing." Fatty Lu said quickly: "Uncle, you also know that Kong Sizhen has martial arts and has countless good fighters around him. My nephew and my personal soldiers are not their opponents at all¡ªso my nephew is greedy for life and afraid of death.  A few good hands will temporarily fill the manpower vacancy around my nephew, so as to avoid accidents when my nephew is dealing with Kong Sizhen."

    "Hmph!" Wang Shirong snorted, extremely dissatisfied with Fatty Lu's cunning.

    "Oh." Hu Guozhu also laughed out loud, and scolded with a smile: "No wonder someone said behind your back that you are a fat loach with oil, so slippery that you can't even catch the water drops-I want my uncle to send someone to monitor you, to prove it  You did not betray our Pingxi Palace when you secretly contacted and exchanged news with the Mangou court, so you should say it clearly, why are you beating around the bush and making other excuses? Is one of the confidants around you a meat foot?"

    Fatty Lu's shameless intentions were publicly exposed by Hu Guozhu, and the fat face was full of embarrassment.  Hu Guozhu smiled softly, and said: "But this is also good, so as to save others from gossiping. How about this, I will report this to my father-in-law tomorrow, and I will draw a few good men from his guard team to protect you by your side  .¡±

    "Thank you, Uncle, for your understanding." Fatty Lu quickly cupped his hands to express his gratitude, and said frankly, "My nephew is really not worried about my grandfather and uncle suspecting my nephew.  , otherwise, once the precedent is set, the consequences will be unimaginable. Therefore, my nephew can only use the heart of a villain to measure the gentleman's belly of my uncle and grandfather."

    "If you can think that way, it's naturally the best." Hu Guozhu nodded, then looked up at the sky, looked at the snowflakes falling in the night sky, and suddenly sighed, "If the second prince can also have your kindness and magnanimity."  , then our Pingxi Palace will really be invincible in the world!"

    "That idiot Wu Yingqi is like me, so will I have a bright future?" Fatty Lu muttered in his heart.  (To be continued.
