Fortunate Young Gentleman

Chapter 457 Temporary Increase [Third Update]

Wei Jian was really idle, so he ran over to ask a question, and then stood behind Emperor Chen again.

Tang Ning looked back at the field. The battle between the Xiaoqi Guard and the Yinqi Guard was still tense. In this short while, both sides had eliminated more than 30 people.

This scene was also beyond the expectations of the spectators.

"It's strange that the Xiaoqi Guard can fight against the Yinqi Guard on equal terms. Could it be that they were hiding their weaknesses before..."

"It's impossible. They almost lost the last match with the Dongmen Guard. This time they must have performed exceptionally well."

"What's wrong with the Yinqi Guard? They can't even beat the Xiaoqi Guard. I bet on them to win!"

...

The Xiaoqi Guard and the Yinqi Guard fought back and forth, and the fight was inextricable, which touched the hearts of everyone in the field. Finally, with the sound of three gongs, a captain of the Xiaoqi Guard waved the Yinqi Guard's flag in his hand, and the last match of Group A finally came to an end.

Although the battle was tense, Yinqi Guard was ultimately defeated by Xiaoqi Guard. Hundreds of people on the field were eliminated, but Xiaoqi Guard also paid a heavy price. In the end, less than five people remained on the field.

Doctor Wu cleared his throat, stepped forward, and said loudly: "This game, Zuo Xiaowei wins!"

The round-robin match of Group A ended here. Zuo Xiaowei won three games and qualified as the first in the group. Zuo Yuwei won two games and lost one, and also qualified.

As for Dongmen Guard and Yinqi Guard, they were unfortunately eliminated and stopped in the top 16.

This result was actually far beyond everyone's expectations. Xiaoqi Guard, as a dark horse, eliminated the more powerful Yinqi Guard and advanced strongly, which shocked everyone and made many people lose money.

Lu Teng obviously couldn't accept this result, but he finally walked in front of Xiao Jue and called him "brother-in-law" reluctantly.

"Not bad." Emperor Chen looked at Tang Ning, nodded with satisfaction, and said, "I am looking forward to what you can do with the Cavalry Guards..."

After watching this game, Emperor Chen did not stay for long and returned to the palace with everyone.

Before leaving, Wei Jian glanced at him again, his eyes meaningful.

"Brother Tang Ning."

Tang Ning was about to go back when he suddenly heard a familiar voice.

Fang Xinyue ran over from the side, looked at him and said, "I'll go back with you. Is Xiaoxiao sister at home?"

"I don't know either. You can go to Tang Mansion and take a look." The old beggar would take her out from time to time. Tang Ning didn't go back last night, so he really didn't know if she was there. He shook his head and said, "Why are you here?"

She looked back and said, "Dad said there's something exciting here, so he brought me here to see it."

Fang Xinyue was followed by Fang Zhe. He looked at a brick box on the front stage and asked, "What is this?"

Tang Ning said casually, "A lottery box."

The Sixteen Guards Competition is not held only once. For convenience, he asked someone to build a lottery box with bricks, in the most conspicuous place, so that everyone can see it, so that no one would say that they were operating behind the scenes.

Fang Zhe asked again, "Is this used to select the so-called Koi?"

Tang Ning nodded.

Fang Zhe looked at him and asked, "What do you think..."

"No." Tang Ning refused without even thinking about it.

Although Fang Zhe is Fang Xiaopang's father, don't expect him to do it in secret. This is a matter of principle. Is he such an unprincipled person?

Fang Zhe shook his head and asked, "Do you think..., is it appropriate for His Majesty not to be chosen for this great gift?"

"Why not..."

Tang Ning spoke without hesitation. Halfway through, he suddenly seemed to think of something and his eyes suddenly widened.

At this moment, he thought of the look Wei Jian gave him before he left, and understood the deep meaning of his eyes.

This is not a fair lottery at all!

If there is only one lucky fish this time, it can only be, and must be, Emperor Chen!

This is not a matter of money, but of attitude------in front of Emperor Chen, in front of all the officials in the court, the dignitaries in the capital, and in front of representatives from all walks of life in the capital, tell them that others are the chosen ones, the sons of luck...

If this is really the case, Tang Ning feels that he will only be a general in this life, no, it is very likely that he will not even be a general in this life.

Son of Heaven, Son of Heaven, in this land of Chen State, only Emperor Chen is the son of God. Anyone who dares to claim God as his father will have a bad end.

"Damn feudal society!" Tang Ning gritted his teeth secretly, his heart bleeding.

"Don't let Xiaoyue play too late, let her come back early." Fang Zhe glanced at him, put his hands behind his back, and turned away.

When Tang Ning and Fang Xiaoyue returned home, they were still in a heavy mood.

The overwhelming advertisements have been promoted, and the koi must be drawn, otherwise the popularity accumulated with great difficulty will be destroyed. It can't really be given to Emperor Chen secretly, otherwise even a fool will know what's going on, and someone will stab them in the back.

For now, they can only increase the reward, draw two koi, and give out an identical gift package. Losing 10,000 taels of silver at once, even he feels distressed.

And he hasn't figured out how to tell Tang Yaoyao about this matter.

Before that, there is one thing I want to tell Lao Zheng.

It was obvious that Old Zheng had some past that he didn't want to talk about. No matter how stupid Tang Ning was, he wouldn't really believe that he used to be a pig butcher in the army.

Chen Huang had a suspicious personality, and he already had doubts about Lao Zheng's help in training troops. Since Lao Zheng was unwilling to mention the past, in order not to cause any trouble, Tang Ning took everything on herself.

Unexpectedly, this package actually brought out a lieutenant general.

After warning Lao Zheng, he climbed over the wall and went to Tang Yaoyao's courtyard.

"Where did you go last night?" Tang Yaoyao stood in the yard, looked at him and asked, "I went to the Ministry of War to look for you yesterday, and they said you left before curfew!"

Tangning stepped forward and said, "Don't rush this matter now. I have something important to tell you."

"What's up?"

This scene seemed familiar, and Tang Yaoyao's expression suddenly became wary.

As if she had thought of something, she came closer to Tang Ning, sniffed her, her expression changed drastically, and said, "Why do you smell like that vixen named Su? Are you with her?"

"What?" Tangning looked at her in surprise and said, "Where are you thinking? I want to say that the gift list we are giving out for drawing koi this time will probably have to add another gift..."

Tang Yaoyao looked at him and asked suspiciously: "Is this the case?"

Tangning nodded and said, "That's it."

"You and Su Huji are not together?"

"Why did you want to go here?"

Tang Yaoyao breathed a sigh of relief, waved his hand and said, "You can add more, it's no big deal..."

Tangning was stunned and said, "This is ten thousand taels of silver..."

Tang Yaoyao walked towards the room and waved: "Isn't it just ten thousand taels? I agree..."

Tang Ning couldn't believe that Fairy Tang was so generous and reasonable today, regardless of the reason.

But it's okay if she doesn't care... No, even if she doesn't care, Tangning still cares. Is it so easy to take advantage of him?

Not only was he taking advantage, it was basically a free prostitution.

Considering that the other party was the emperor, Tangning decided to write down the account first and collect some interest from his daughter before he thought of ways to recover the losses.

After the group matches ended yesterday, the top eight rosters for the 16th Guards have been released.

The left and right Yulinwei and the left and right Jinyuwei were successfully promoted as expected. What was surprising was the intrusion of Zuo Xiaowei, who became the most eye-catching presence among the top eight.

The reason for this attention is that this is the first time in the past ten years that Zuo Xiaowei has entered the top 16 ranks.

If this news only caused a small stir in the capital, then when Tang and Tang suddenly announced that two koi would be drawn in the finals, people in the capital who had already bought tickets for the finals were once again excited. .

This means that the probability of being selected by them has doubled, and for some people, the possibility of having enough food and clothing for the rest of their lives has doubled.

This temporary increase in sales undoubtedly made Tang and Tang's businesses become conscientious merchants in the hearts of the people. Within half a day, the customer flow of the two major stores in Beijing increased sharply.

In a certain hall of the palace, Emperor Chen put down today's newspaper in his hand and said: "He actually planned to draw two koi carps. He is really generous. If I arrange for him to work in the household department in the future, I will have to remind him from time to time that money cannot be spent like this... "

Wei Jian smiled and said: "Master Tang is a truly wise man. I believe he must have his own intentions for doing this..."
