Ming Dynasty: I, Emperor Chongzhen, swear not to go to Meishan

There were nearly a thousand taels of silver piled in front of Hou Fangyu, and the white flowers were particularly dazzling.

Now his eyes are red, his face is flushed, and his breathing is rapid. The nervousness and excitement when he started placing bets has turned into madness.

It was too easy to win this money. He was possessed by the God of Wealth, and he was so lucky that he won the banker sweating profusely, and his face was so pale that there was no trace of blood.

Double, all-in.

Encouraged by a group of gamblers nearby, the arrogant Hou Fangyu bet all his money. He believed that he was now possessed by the God of Wealth and planned to stop after winning this last round. As for Li Sixi's previous reminder, he had already thrown it all away. To the sky beyond.

However, this time, the God of Gamblers may have fallen asleep, or his good luck may have run out. The rice grains that came out were odd, and the dealer took the big one and paid the small one. He just made a small fortune, and Hou didn't have time to warm up the money. The eldest son became a penniless pauper again.

Oh, if I had known I would stop gambling, I would have stopped and walked away...

The pale-faced Hou Fangyu seemed to have lost his soul. He sat dumbly for a long time before he came back to his senses. If there was a regret medicine in the world, he would definitely buy one.

Brother, do you still want to play? If you don't want to play, get up. I want to turn over the book. Someone shouted.

Play. Hou Fangyu stared at his red eyes and said through gritted teeth. He has now become a complete gambler and only wants to make money.

Brother, if you don't have money, you can borrow it from your boss. The interest is not high. A gambler kindly reminded me.

Well, I want to borrow five hundred taels. Hou Fangyu gritted his teeth and said. He also saw it just now. There was a gambler who lost all his money, and then borrowed ten taels of silver from the boss. Now he not only paid off the ten taels of silver he owed, but also had a loan in front of him. He had piled up more than a hundred taels of silver, and he wanted to make money.

This young master, five hundred taels is too much. Someone must guarantee or mortgage it. Wei Changlin said with a smile.

Hou Fangyu turned around to look for Li Xi, but did not see him.

That friend of yours had something urgent to leave. He was afraid of affecting your luck, so he didn't tell you. Yu Wushang said calmly.

If you don’t have anyone to guarantee, you can just use your things as collateral. Once you pay back the money, you can get the collateral back. There’s nothing to worry about, hehe.

I pledged my jade pendant... Ouch, where is my jade pendant?

Hou Fangyu wanted to use the jade pendant he was wearing as collateral, but when he reached out and touched it, his expression changed. The jade pendant he wore on his jade belt every day was missing. He didn't know if it had been dropped or taken away by someone.

When people are unlucky, even drinking water will hurt their teeth.

Hou Fangyu, who was already defeated and wanted to make money, ignored the lost jade pendant. He touched his body for a while and finally took out a small jade pendant with body temperature and carefully placed it in front of Wei Changlin.

This small jade pendant is a personal item that Li Xiangjun usually wears. One side is engraved with a beautiful cloud pattern, and the other side is engraved with Li Xiangjun's name. It is also a token of love given by Li Xiangjun to Hou Fangyu.

Hou Fangyu had been carrying it close to him, but now that he was losing his mind, he gritted his teeth and took it out as a mortgage, and then redeemed it when he had money. He might be able to redeem it after playing a few more games.

Yu Wushang picked up the jade pendant and looked at it carefully. It was a fine white jade with exquisite carvings. It was obviously made by a famous artist. It was only worth about two hundred taels of silver. However, when he turned over to the other side, he saw Li Xiangjun's When I heard the name, my eyes couldn't help but light up.

Didn’t the emperor fall in love with Li Xiangjun? If I presented this jade pendant to the emperor, I’m sure it would be a great achievement.

Li Sixi took the initiative and asked his other brother to take away Hou Fangyu's jade pendant, which had unexpected benefits. Let's just say this kid passed the test this time.

After the signature and painting were put in place, Hou Fangyu borrowed 500 taels of silver. He felt refreshed and started betting immediately. He divided his bets into two, and the result was known without guessing, and he lost everything.

After losing, he still wanted to borrow money, but he couldn't bring anything valuable with him, and was thrown out of the casino.

He was like a soulless doll, walking down the street in despair, and somehow walked into a tavern.

Here comes a big jug of wine. Hou Fangyu just wanted to drink to relieve his worries. As for whether he had money, he no longer cared about it.

After several large bowls of wine, he was so drunk that he fell unconscious and lay on the dining table.
