Chapter 61 Princess: I am not a road idiot
Recently, it has been spread in Rongzhou City that Princess Luo is a bodhisattva of good fortune, and anyone who can make her happy will be rewarded with a silver coin. For this reason, there are countless opportunistic people in Rongzhou Strolling outside the palace, maybe you can have a chance encounter with the princess, and then make her smile and reward her with money!

Among the wives of the Gaomen family, the rumors are more true, such as as long as they have a small gamble with the princess, they can earn a hundred taels of gold and silver. Who doesn't like real gold and silver?

But recently, the largest gambling house in Rongzhou - Sifangmen has become noisy.

Concubine Luo came to the door every day, and all the gold and silver she brought were carried in the door in boxes, which made those desperate gamblers become jealous and rushed to gamble with the princess.

Of course, not everyone can be the princess's opponent. If she sees that you are interested, she will play tricks a few times. She is happy whether she wins or loses. If she doesn't like you, she will be crossed by the guards If you go out, you won't be able to see each other.

Sometimes the princess wins and sometimes loses, but she doesn't seem to care at all. Without money, the maid beside her can always come up with some rare jade calligraphy and paintings, which are very valuable, but in the eyes of the princess, they are probably not as good-looking as Pai Gow.

There are also people who have won jade calligraphy and paintings. At the beginning, they were worried that they would be caught and taken back by King Rong. If such gamblers, who are rare in thousands of years, don't take the opportunity to win some money, they will definitely be struck by lightning.

These people don't know who is the winner and who is the loser in the end.

Concubine Luo was twirling an imperial green jade ring finger in her hand, the color of emerald green dripped between her white and pink fingers, it was really beautiful.

She leaned back in the armchair with disinterest, looking at the more and more crazy gamblers below, men and women showing their ugliness, she felt bored, after all, she was not a real gambler, and it was difficult for her to develop an irresistible interest in these things.

Huai Xu went to the dealer again to pawn a famous painting from the previous dynasty. She came back with the silver in her arms, nodded at Concubine Luo, then exchanged the silver for worthless sea shells, and watched the girl who often played with the princess a few times. The gambler was also there today, so he distributed the sea shells to the guards, letting them play as much as they wanted, no matter whether they win or lose.

At first, the dealers of the Sifang Gate naturally disagreed with Concubine Luo's exchange of sea shells for silver, but Concubine Luo couldn't resist Concubine Luo's ability to produce a lot of jade, calligraphy and paintings, and the asking price was not high. The banker turned a blind eye to the silver in other people's pockets.

Concubine Luo used this method to exchange the most money, which naturally belonged to Qin Shou's treasury, and even won some.

The silver she exchanged was not placed in the yard, but directly on a dark and windy night, Gu Shiwei quietly filled it into the adjacent lotus pond, which was covered by lotus flowers touching the sky, and the silver sank into the mud. No one would have guessed that at least tens of thousands of cash was filled in that pond.

And to prevent Qin Shou from holding on to the evidence, Huai Xu didn't even make an account, keeping everything in her mind.

Seeing that it was about the same time, Concubine Luo got up, patted the skirt of her skirt, rubbed the jade finger, and prepared to go back to the mansion with Gong'e first.

But just as she reached the stairs, a group of gamblers rushed in from the main entrance of the gambling house, and someone shouted, "The official is arresting someone, run away!"

In an instant, everyone fled in all directions, shoving and yelling in panic, some people fell down, some people stepped on them, and no one got up again.

At the backlight of the door, a group of officials in soft armor and with broadswords across their waists rushed in and arrested anyone they saw. Ming Yu and Ji Xia protected Concubine Luo from left to right and stepped back step by step.

Concubine Luo squinted her eyes, just in time to see Qin Shou walking in between the light and shadow, coming in after the official messenger.

She grabbed Ji Xia's hand, startled, turned around and ran away without thinking.

Unexpectedly, Qin Shou's eyes were like a hawk, and he saw Concubine Luo at a glance, a sneer suddenly appeared on his face, and he strode towards her, his posture was clearly to catch her on purpose.

Ming Qu and Ji Xia looked at each other, Ji Xia took Concubine Luo, turned around and rushed to the second floor, Ming Qu split his palm and attacked Qin Shou, if he couldn't beat him, he would have to wait for a while.

Qin Shou glanced at her, turned over his long sleeves, blocked the squirrel, and said a word, "Get lost!"

Then he chased Concubine Luo up the stairs.

Seeing that it was getting closer, Ji Xia gritted his teeth, pushed Concubine Luo to a distance of ten feet, turned around and started fighting with Qin Shou.

Concubine Luo held up the hem of her skirt and ran along the winding corridor. She ran a short distance, lost her direction and suddenly remembered, why did she run away in such a panic?

She escaped for a while, but after all she was going back to the palace, how could Qin Shou fail to catch her, it was not a big deal at first, but she was the first to appear guilty when she ran away.

She and Qin Shou had already had a serious fight, and it was not worse than what happened today.

Thinking of this, she looked around. The second floor of the Sifang Gate is quite spacious, and it is full of winding corridors. The scene at the moment is the same, and she can't tell the north, the south, and the east at all.

"The princess is... lost?"

Suddenly, an unfamiliar voice sounded from behind, Concubine Luo turned her head, and saw a short boy in a green shirt, Xie Liangyu, looking at her leisurely.

She raised her eyebrows. If I remember correctly, Xie Liangyu was the only man from Xie's family who survived last time. Later, according to his wishes, she wrote a letter to Qingshan Academy in Rongzhou, and since then she has been released. Liang Yu stayed at the academy with peace of mind, and didn't say anything about repaying her when she learned something in the future.

She thought that if he gave her the evidence to plead guilty to Jie's family, and she would give him a way out, then he would be cleared.

Seeing what Concubine Luo was thinking, Xie Liangyu smiled slightly, her face showing a bit of beauty, "The Xie family used to be kind to the owner of the Sifangmen, so I heard that the princess is here recently, boy So I took a leave of absence with Mr. Academy and came to have a look."

Concubine Luo didn't take it seriously. After all, Xie Liangyu worked for Qin Shou in her last life. She didn't like him, so she said bluntly, "Now that you see it, don't bother me."

Xie Liangyu smiled shyly, and he didn't mind the princess' temper, "Is the princess hiding from the son-in-law?"

Xie Liangyu is a smart person, he couldn't see the weirdness between Concubine Luo and Qin Shou, so he said, "If the princess still believes in the boy's words, then follow the boy."

After saying that, he falsely raised his hand as a guide, turned around and headed in one direction.

Concubine Luo followed. Although she was alone, she was not worried about what Xie Liangyu could do, after all, he was not as tall as her.

Xie Liangyu led Concubine Luo up a narrow dark staircase on the second floor, which led directly to the back door of the Sifang Gate, and as soon as he stepped through that door, there was a quiet alley, and at the end of the alley was the wide north gate of Rongzhou City. Suzaku City.

Concubine Luo stood under the sun and looked around. She was not used to not having palace maids and guards by her side. What was even more unaccustomed to her was that she didn't know how far Suzaku City was from the palace, and which way to go back. Even though she has been here before, she was sitting on a golden cart, which is totally different from walking back.

Xie Liangyu laughed secretly, he shook his head and sighed, "You better send the princess back."

He was also worried that with the appearance of a princess, walking on the street majestically would clearly cause trouble.

Concubine Luo gave him a sideways glance, and reluctantly raised her chin and said, "Since you asked, I will give you this chance, so hurry up and lead the way."

Seeing her stern and embarrassing appearance, Xie Liangyu really laughed now.

Concubine Luo kept a stern face, trying to maintain her majesty, "Hmph, how dare you laugh at me?"

Xie Liangyu waved his hand, "No, the boy is very happy to see the princess is very beautiful, so he is happy."

With such a glib tongue, Concubine Luo wondered what kind of sainthood he had learned in Qingshan Academy, "Did you really go to Qingshan Academy? No..."

Before she could say anything, a dark shadow in the slanting thorns suddenly rushed over like the wind, and it was right in her direction.
