Concubine Sheng Chong

Chapter 38
Xu Junyan also ignored him.

"Are you still coming?"

Amidst the uproar, these three words seemed to stir up a thousand waves with one stone.

The head of the family had a sullen face, and looked at the expressions of the people around him. If he couldn't say it at this time, the signboard of this Chengnan gambling house would be completely smashed.

Xu Junyan glanced at Yu Qingxian who was stunned, "Next, I want to bet with him."

Yu Qingxian shook his head tremblingly, he already owed the head of the family more than 800 taels of silver, and if he came with this again, I'm afraid he would have to explain it here today.

"You win or lose in a game. If you win, I will pay off the gambling debts for you. If you lose, I will also pay the money for you. It's just that you owe all your gambling debts to me."

Yu Qingxian's eyes widened when he heard that, would he pay back the money for himself if he won?If you lose, it's just another person who owes you money!This looks like a rich and powerful young man, if he makes friends with him, that would be a great thing!
"I bet! I bet with you!"

The face of the head of the family was even more ugly, could it be that this person knew that he was going to trap Yu Qingxian?Is this for stumbling?
"Young master, your gambling method is probably against the rules..."

Yu Qingxian immediately blurted out: "What's wrong with you, boss? It's up to me whether I win or lose! I owe you a lot of money! Could it be that you're afraid?"

"you……"

This is really not a good thing for Yu Qingxian, anyone who is profitable is a grandfather, and with other backers, he will jump right away!

The head of the family looked at the crowd around him, they were all regular customers, and he couldn't lose his job in the Chengnan gambling house, so he snorted coldly and held back his breath.

Xia He rubbed his nose and asked, "Xu Ming, my senior brother seems to have come here to set this man up on purpose, right? But this looks like an ordinary dude, could it be from a dignified family... no Not like, when he heard that his senior brother wanted to pay back the money for him, his eyes were straightened, and he looked like he had no money..."

Xu Ming saw Xu Junyan glanced this way, and quickly pulled Xia He behind him. He himself didn't want Xia He to be sent back to Jin'an. Jin'an was too far away. After returning to Luoyang with his master, Xu Ming I never went there again.

When leaving the gambling house, Xu Junyan handed the IOU bearing Yu Qingxian's handprint to Xu Ming, "Think of a way to give it to Miss Jiang."

"Then master you?"

"I'm going to the Suzaku camp."

Now Zhennanwei is stationed in the Suzaku Camp in the north of the city.

Xu Ming took the IOU and walked away.

Xia He at the corner stared at him with a smile, "Xu Ming, are you going to Jiang's house?"

Xu Ming sighed, "Xia He, stop making trouble. I can barely go in and out of Jing'an Hou Mansion in broad daylight, but I can't take you with me."

Xia He's Qinggong is a bit lame.

Xia He snorted heavily, and was about to turn around when she made up her mind for a moment, "Go to Jing'an Hou Mansion in broad daylight, if you are discovered, you are going to ruin the lady's reputation? If something happens, you go marry her?"

"How could I do this!" Xu Ming blurted out in a moment of desperation.

Xia He was a little guilty, and made up nonsense as soon as he opened his mouth. He took a step back, and then slowed down his tone, "You are a foreigner, how can you act carelessly like this..."

"Then I'll deliver it tonight."

"My God! Xu Ming, what are you going to do? You still have to choose the night!"

Xu Ming stared at Xia He, who was dressed in men's clothes and smiling like a flower with his eyes squinted, and was stunned for a moment.

"Hey, hey, listen to me, we will pretend to be sent by Miss An Guogong, come to visit Miss Jiang, give her anything, say it is from Miss An Guogong, Jing'an Hou The concierge of the mansion does not dare to offend Duke An's mansion."

"You are..."

"Am I cheating? Then Xu Ming, you can go at night. If you don't, you can still marry a young lady from the Hou family. It's a good deal!"

Xu Ming shook his head helplessly.

An hour later, a delicate servant girl dressed in a pair of silk nests and geese, wearing white jade inlaid with pearls and emerald jade hairpins, led a tall servant girl who was holding a tall vase with a red sea beast and fish wave pattern. The Jing'an Hou Mansion.

In the courtyard of Wutong Garden, Jiang Jinyan was looking at Jiang Wei in disbelief, "Uncle Jiang, are you sure you saw General Xu coming out of the gambling house in the south of the city?"

Recently, Jiang Wei has been staring at Yu Qingxian for a while.

Jiang Wei nodded, "It is indeed General Xu, I will not be mistaken."

Jiang Jinyan was a little confused, Xu Junyan was not someone who would go to the gambling house for entertainment, for business?

At this time, a woman came in to announce, "Miss, Miss Xu from An Guogong's mansion sent someone to pay a visit to you."

Jiang Jinyan frowned, but wondered in his heart what kind of thing was this?

"Take it to the flower hall in Xici Room to entertain."

There is only one daughter, Xu Junya, in the An Guogong's mansion. She is indeed a good-natured person, and has a good reputation in Luoyang Gaomen.

But...send someone to visit me, who is still a stranger at this time?Not like her style.

When Jiang Wei heard that someone was visiting, he said goodbye and left.

In the flower hall of the Xici Room, as soon as Xia He saw the old lady coming out of the hall, she sat down on a grand master's chair covered with bullet-ink cushions.

Xu Ming dressed in the appearance of a servant, holding a tall vase with a red sea beast and fish waves pattern standing beside him, "Stop making trouble, it's shameful for others to see."

Xia He pursed his lips, looked at Xu Ming and said, "I didn't expect that you don't look like a servant at all when you dress like this, Xu Ming, look at me, do I look like the big maid next to Miss Xu? .”

Xia He coughed lightly, sat up straight, her eyes were full of energy, and she smiled sweetly.

Xu Ming smiled slightly, she is so nice, she doesn't look like an ordinary maid.

Jiang Jinyan frowned when he saw the two people sitting and standing in the flower hall from a distance. Wasn't the guy dressed as a servant the person next to Xu Junyan?

It seems to be called Xu Ming. In the previous life, he has made a lot of military exploits with Xu Junyan, and is Xu Junyan's most trusted lieutenant.

Yes, I heard that Xu Junyan followed him since he was a child, and he also learned martial arts together.

Then she looked around, and said to Xue Yan: "Xue Yan, you watch here, if anyone comes, please report."

Xueyan's heart skipped a beat, perhaps it was something urgent.

Xu Ming heard the slight sound of footsteps, and quickly coughed lightly, "Xia He..."

Xia He came to his senses, stood up quickly and walked aside with his head down.

Jiang Jinyan took a look at the maid. Since Xu Ming's identity was fake, this maid probably had nothing to do with Xu Junya.

This girl was dressed in a pair of silk and geese costumes, and the white jade inlaid with beads and emerald jade hairpins on her head set off her bright eyes and red lips, making her very delicate.

Xia He's eyes were also looking straight at Jiang Jinyan, and she had long wanted to meet this woman who asked her senior brother to help her again and again.

That day, she looked gentle and pleasant from a distance, but when she looked up close, she felt that her face was exquisite and bright, and her plain and clean body added a dusty temperament, suppressing a bit of color, but more elegant.

Xu Ming glanced at Jiang Jinyan who was not accompanied by anyone, and saw her expression and knew that he couldn't hide it, "Miss Jiang, please forgive me, we came here without warning..."

Xia He has always been smart and understands the situation, but he has always protected Xu Ming, so he said: "This...isn't it that you came without warning, we also reported, and, indeed, you came from Anguo Gongfu's mansion." .”

Xu Ming looked at the calm Jiang Jinyan in front of him, feeling a little ashamed, how could he agree to bring Xia He here!
"Miss Jiang, I am here to deliver something for the master."

Jiang Jinyan glanced at Xia He, she couldn't even salute, how could she be a maid, and even though this woman was dressed as a maid, she didn't look like a maid at all, and she was protected by Xu Ming, so she was definitely not an ordinary person .

Although it is a bit rash, there is no malice in the end.

Jiang Jinyan said with a slight smile, "You two don't need to be too polite."

As he spoke, he glanced at the red sea beast vase, "But for this object?"

Xia He saw that there was still a trace of uncontrollable laughter in the doubt on her face, and he couldn't hold his hand for a while, so he laughed out loud.

"Miss Jiang, please don't pay attention to this bottle. I asked Xu Ming to buy it on the way here. I will give it to you as a vase. Red plums will look good in winter."

Seeing her informality, Jiang Jinyan also smiled, "I'm afraid I'm going to take away your good intentions. I'm still guarding the rules, so I don't need such bright and colorful things."

Xia He slapped his forehead and said apologetically, "It's all my fault! Why did I forget about this..."

Xu Ming also coughed lightly, "It's mine, I forgot too."

Jiang Jinyan smiled and shook his head, "I'm keeping the rules, and you don't have to be too clean. I like this bottle very much. When I get rid of the clothes, I will put red plums in it and enjoy the beautiful scenery."

Seeing that she was so easy-going, Xia He nodded with a smile, "Miss Jiang is really too polite."

Seeing her generous and extraordinary bearing, Xia He was a little puzzled. Such a character should live a poetic and picturesque life, without eating the fireworks of the world. How could she become such a valuable painting.

Xu Ming had already taken out the IOU, "The master said, let me hand it over to you."

Jiang Jinyan took the document-style paper, and after a quick glance, he was shocked.

What does Xu Junyan mean?How did he know that he was investigating Yu Qingxian?Where did this IOU come from?

She instantly thought of what Jiang Wei had said, and saw Xu Junyan coming out of the gambling house.

How did he get the IOU?

I was indeed staring at Yu Qingxian in order to get a handle on him, but what did Xu Junyan want to do?
"Can the two of you reveal, how...how did General Xu get it?"

Xu Ming twitched the corners of his mouth, could it be that his master got it by massacring all parties in the gambling house for this evidence?
Thinking of the scene in the gambling house, Xia He became interested for a moment, stepped forward and said, "My God! Miss Jiang, you don't know how good my brother is, do you? Apart from fighting and killing people, practicing swords and martial arts, he even works in gambling. The square is invincible..."

Xia He described the scene of the gambling house clearly, including the murderous eyes of the boss when Xu Junyan was leaving.

Jiang Jinyan felt that the paper in his hand was a little hot!He... he can actually win in the casino like this...

Manipulative?Like entering the land of no one?
Jiang Jinyan twitched the corners of her mouth, and couldn't help but laugh when she thought of the scene in the gambling house. Why didn't she know that Xu Junyan still had this ability.

Xu Ming coughed again, "Xia He! If the master finds out and you say that about him..."

Xia He pursed her lips reluctantly, "Miss Jiang won't spread the word."

Jiang Jinyan glanced at her with a smile, "Miss Xia, right? Of course I won't betray you, but I'm afraid you haven't seen how General Xu made a move."

In the gambling house, ten bets nine thousand.

When Xu Ming heard this, he took a high look at this young Miss Jiang. Indeed, she was not an ordinary person. Could it be that all the women who grew up in this deep house were so thoughtful?
I'm afraid that only someone like the master can afford a character like Miss Jiang...

It's still Xia He's good temper, Xu Ming looked at Xia He with the corner of his mouth bent.

Xia He frowned and stared at Xu Ming, "Xu Ming, tell me, what did senior brother do? I...I can't see it!"

"Master has deep internal strength, so this trivial matter is naturally not difficult."

Jiang Jinyan couldn't laugh or cry, a person like Xu Junyan would use all his martial arts to win money in a gambling shop, and... he even won this certificate for himself...

Jiang Jinyan lowered his eyes and shook the paper in his hand.

This written evidence... Did Xu Junyan know his intentions?
Is this helping yourself again?
This time, what good can he say for himself?
