On the Difficulties of Escape in Ancient Times

Chapter 355 Gambling

Prince Liang wanted to have a good reputation and was unwilling to reject the 'meritorious minister' personally, so he casually said, "I will ask someone to make arrangements for you."

Then he was asked to go back and wait for news.

Boss Xiao still refused to leave: "It's not safe outside. They see that I'm tall and burly, so they always question me more. How about, Your Majesty, give me a warrant?"

"The younger one is from the casino. He has more than ten people under his command. He is also very familiar with the city and inside. He can handle some trivial matters for the prince."

After saying that, he looked like he was kneeling on the ground and unwilling to get up.

He was also riding a donkey to read and wait and see. If this cool prince was cruel, then he must be as good as a grandson.

Whatever he said was what he said, and he would never dare to say anything about it.

But he didn't expect that the prince would also engage in courteous corporal, so he was giggling, hoping for some benefits.

After all, he was risking his life.

When King Liang heard what he said, his heart moved.

He did not doubt Boss Xiao's identity. When he came in, he said he was the manager of the casino.

Then Liang Wang really has his own little hobby.

He also likes all the powerful and beautiful women that men like, and can be considered as loving them.

Otherwise, he would also want to rebel and ascend to the position of the Ninth Five-Year Plan.

In addition, Liang Wang also likes gambling.

It's a pity that he externally portrays himself as a gentleman. Even with several beautiful women in Dona, he is afraid that others will think that he is addicted to women.

Before anything big happened, he could only force himself not to indulge.

After he ascends the throne, he will have no less than three thousand beauties in his harem.

In addition, King Liang also likes gambling, but this hobby is not widely known.

He could only occasionally find opportunities to be alone, playing dice and playing Pai Gow with the eunuch who served him in the study.

It's a pity that Lao Pan's poor skills made him feel that winning was boring.

Who would have thought that I happened to come to a casino to watch the action.

King Liang motioned to the people serving on both sides to go down, leaving only Lao Pan to accompany him.

"If you can beat me, I will give you a hundred taels of silver."

He casually promised to get out a hundred taels of silver. He really didn't feel bad. Anyway, in his eyes, Boss Xiao was already a dead man.

He would never allow someone who knew he loved gambling to get out alive.

Boss Xiao didn't expect that he would encounter such a good thing.

But he accidentally saw the old eunuch next to him looking at him as if he were looking at a dead person.

This gave him a chill.

Fortunately, he thought it was a pie in the sky, but he didn't expect it to be fatal.

But when he thought about it, he understood why he thought so.

In the past, when some people went to casinos, they kept themselves tightly covered for fear of being recognized.

If the casino didn't allow masks, most people would want to go in with their faces covered.

Boss Xiao was flustered, but with a proud look on his face, he patted his chest and said, "Your Majesty, you have found the right person. I know odd and even, dice, Pai Gow, pot throwing, horse hanging, and leaves."

"There are also cockfights, duck fights, goose fights, and cricket fights. The little ones can also accompany you."

Boss Xiao also said so much on purpose.

He had been in the casino for so many years, and when he went there, he learned some things because he was interested.

And they know the ropes so that they can catch the cheater.

Even he couldn't imagine that he would be in danger because of this skill. But he believes that with this technology, he can also save the day.

King Liang's eyes lit up when he heard this: "You know all these?"

He had never seen some gambling skills before, and it was exciting to hear them.

"Of course, the most interesting thing is the cockfighting, but I can't find a cockfighting for a while." Boss Xiao first used the cockfighting to catch his heart and save his own life: "Let's play dice first?"

Prince Liang immediately agreed: "Okay, I'll give you a warrant later, and you can go find the fighting cock tomorrow."

Manager Pan next to him was instantly frightened, feeling that he had encountered a strong enemy.

But looking at the mustache at the corner of Boss Xiao's mouth, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief: Fortunately, he is a real man and can't take away his job.

But judging from his appearance, he was already approaching his forties.

What if he can't think about it anymore and wants to keep company with him? What should he do?
It was a pity that Prince Liang had only occupied the city for a short time and was busy with government affairs. He just had a cup of tea with Boss Xiao when a young eunuch came outside to report that the generals were waiting for him to discuss matters.

In these dozen times, Boss Xiao has won more and lost less.

On the contrary, King Liang wins less and loses more.

However, he is not a person who cannot afford to lose. On the contrary, he feels that losing is more interesting than winning.

At this moment, Prince Liang couldn't bear to let him die like this.

He looked at Lao Pan beside him: "Get him a warrant later and let him come back tomorrow."

Lao Pan not only gave Mr. Xiao a warrant, but also threatened him sternly, not allowing him to tell the story of the house, and also asked him to bring his family back.

Although Boss Xiao didn't look like a meticulous craftsman, he was careful to sail the ten thousand year ship. Lao Pan was a cautious person and felt that his master would not be able to kill him in a short while.

As a precaution, we have to let him bring his family back, so that he doesn't dare to mess around and he can feel at ease.

But after scaring him, he still had to give him some benefits. He actually asked someone to send him a hundred taels of silver to reward him on behalf of King Liang.

Boss Xiao agreed repeatedly before leaving with the warrant and money given to him by the chief eunuch.

It is impossible to bring the family back.

Anyway, what he has to do has been done, so why not run away quickly?

He weighed the package containing the silver and felt that his trip was not in vain.

After he drove the carriage away, he went to the city gate, only to find that the city gate was also closed.

He was going to go home and take a look.

As he drove the carriage leisurely towards home, he saw more than a dozen soldiers coming towards him.

Even after King Liang occupied the city, he focused on appeasing the people.

But those ordinary people did not dare to go out at will.

Therefore, there were not many people on the street, so Boss Xiao made eye contact with one of the soldiers patrolling the street.

Boss Xiao's eyes widened in shock: Is he not dazzled? How come it seems like I saw my third son-in-law?

Thinking of where the Li family's father and son were probably squatting now, he could only persuade himself: People are similar, so this couldn't be his third son-in-law.

When he returned to Xiao's Mansion, he was pleasantly surprised. It didn't look like someone had gone in and raided the place. Everything was fully equipped.

He lit a brazier, took out the roast chicken and liquor he bought on the road, and started eating.

After he was ready to eat and drink, he would recharge his batteries and prepare to leave the city tomorrow morning.

Judging from Prince Liang's tone, he was planning to arrest someone at Chen Mansion's Zhuangzi.

I wonder if those in the Chen Mansion can withstand the reinforcements?
After eating and drinking, Boss Xiao was about to lie down early when he heard a slight movement outside.

He didn't dare to neglect, and immediately stepped to the side, pulled out the dagger from the side of his boot, and looked outside warily.

"Father-in-law," there was a gentle knock on the door, and Li Yan's voice said: "It's me."
