Murong Xu went to the gambling table where he used to play the big and small points. In the envious eyes of all the people, he deliberately threw out a one hundred Liang large chips and played the gambling. He used to make a few or one or two bets. Today, he rarely makes a fortune. He is flattered by bareheaded flattery, and his courage grows.

The God of fate seems to pay special attention to Murong Xu. He is as helpful as God. In a short time, Murong Xu won more than 20000 liang of silver chips in front of him, fully loaded with two bamboo baskets.

Murong Xu said happily: "Oh! The God of wealth is just staring at me! I will let your boss pay for your underpants today! Well, forget it There's a saying that you can take it as soon as you see it. I won so much. Should I take it today? "

A gambler next to Murong Xu pulled his sleeve and begged: "don't, young master! Brother, I've earned hundreds of Liang for everything you see and bet! If you gamble a few more big ones, you will never worry about food and drink! God of wealth is staring at you. You must not be discouraged! It's said that if you don't get lucky, you'll have a lifetime of bad luck! I will win several thousand Liang more with my brother. Thank you very much! "

All the people in the gambling house came up and talked about it: "my God! I've never seen anyone win so much money! " "The God of wealth has come to light. Follow him and win!" "Alas, it's a pity that I have little capital, so I can only make some pocket money with it!"

Murong Xu listened to the people's comments and was more brave: "open up! I have money, I will accompany you to the end! "

Before Murong Xu was satisfied for a long time, the wind on the gambling table turned. In a short time, two baskets of chips in front of Murong Xu came to the bottom. The people who bet with him also lost all their money. They were all swearing there.

Murong Xu was so worried that he was sweating. He poured all the remaining chips into the circle with the word "big". With a wail, all his hopes were dashed: "what kind of casino? There must be a black hand behind the scenes. How could I lose so miserably? "

"Mr. Murong, win or lose, you'll be lucky!" sneered the man in charge of the casino! How much did you lose today? "

Murong Xu roared: "I lost more than 30000 Liang today with profit and capital!"

"How many copies of gold did you bring to the gambling house?" the man asked

Murong Xu patted the table impatiently: "I brought in 12000 silver tickets and paid all gambling debts. I can still have at least 9000 Liang left! I won more than 20000 yuan before and after. I'll pay for it all! Damn it, I doubt that you are troublemakers. I will report to the government! "

At first, he nodded his head and bowed his waist, and came over shaking his arm. He put a hand on Murong Xu's shoulder with awe: "Mr. Murong, you just said that you brought less than 10000 Liang silver into the gambling house and won more than 20000 Liang silver. Excuse me, when you win silver, is there someone in our gambling house who won't let you leave? Are you forced to bet? "

Murong Xu wiped the sweat beads on his forehead with his sleeve: "then No! This guy around me has been pushing me to bet. I have reason to doubt that he is the insider of your gambling house! "

The man spat fiercely, rushed forward and punched Murong Xu in the face: "I bet with you. It's blood mould. I lost more than one hundred Liang and I won't say. I will be slandered by you!"

Bareheaded, holding murongxu's head in his arm, pulled him to a secluded place: "Hey, I see you are really unlucky today. I want to help you! Well, I'll lend you another ten thousand liang of silver and give you the trigger. I'm willing to lend you so much silver only when I see that you are the eldest brother of the prince! "

Murong Xu's eyes lit up: "I also feel that if I have another ten thousand liang of silver, I will be able to turn over the book. Thank you very much, elder brother!"

At dusk, Murong Xu walked out of the gambling house. After an afternoon's game, he not only lost 10000 liang of silver Han Yao gave him, but also was forced to sign a high interest note of 30000 liang of silver.

Murong Xu walked forward numbly like a puppet, and there was a fierce threat in his ear: "if you don't pay back the silver within ten days, I will let someone burn your house, so that you can't stand in Nanjin!"

Even if Murong Xu's misfortune is like this, it seems that heaven has not planned to let him go. The man who encouraged him to continue gambling, with a group of gamblers who lost money, blocked Murong Xu in the alley: "it's him, he's the insider of the gambling house, he deliberately took us to lose money!" "Kill him!" "Cut off his hand!"

Murong Xu was numbly frozen in place, and was allowed to be hit by sticks and fists. Murongxu only felt the heat on his head, a stream of blood flowed all over his face, his eyes were black, and he fell into the alley with a "plop", and his gamblers saw what he saw. They were afraid of making a big scene and disappeared at the end of the alley.

When Murong Xu woke up, he was lying in a decorated room. A man in a black cloud brocade robe stood in front of his bed and looked at him with concern: "Mr. Murong, are you awake? Do you promise to sell me the jade pendant? "

The man in black is the ninth Prince of Wuli. His name is Gao Zhixuan. He lived in SHANGXIA for a long time and lied about being a businessman.

Murong Xu felt the white cloth wrapped around his head: "Mr. Gao, why am I here? Am I dreaming? "

Gao Zhixuan smiled: "you are not dreaming. You were knocked down on the ground at the entrance of Jubao gambling house. I happened to pass by. Seeing an acquaintance, I took you back to your house and found a doctor to bandage your wound. Otherwise, you may die in that alley! "Murong Xu lost and said: "what can I do for you, sir? Better let me die there! I owe a lot of gambling debt to gambling house, just like I owe the money to Lord Yan... "

Gao Zhixuan smiled kindly: "Mr. Murong, you are still so young, what barriers can't be crossed? Don't be so paranoid! Don't you owe people money? Your Murong family is not short of silver! "

Murong Xu said wrongly, "it's my uncle's house that doesn't lack silver. My father has no ability, that is to help him as a waiter. Now I owe a huge sum of money. If my father knew it, he would kill me without hesitation! "

"For the sake of our friendship, if you owe a thousand or eight hundred Liang, I will pay it back for you," Gao Zhixuan reassured

Murong Xu wiped his tears: "thousands of children and hundreds of people will not bother you, sir. Even if I am cheating, I can also get I owe someone thirty thousand Liang, two cents interest. It's fatal... "

Gao Zhixuan sighed: "owe so much? That's not easy! Alas I can show you a clear way. "

Murong Xu seemed to grasp a straw: "please tell me, sir, if you can help me through this difficulty, it's my second parents!"

Gao Zhixuan put his hands: "Sir, I'm serious! The last time you promised me? With it, sir, I'm afraid I haven't got money to pay my gambling debt? "

Murong Xu shook his head disappointedly: "I thought at first that my sister would give me a common jade pendant. Unexpectedly, I was not only scolded by her, but also driven out of the house by her!"

Gao Zhixuan said: "don't be discouraged! If she doesn't, you can take it secretly! Your sister is a princess. How can she care about a jade plate? Besides, I heard that your Murong family has a Guqin manual. I have a kind of crazy love for the old objects. Well, if you can get these two things together, how much money do you want? Just talk! "

Murong Xu frowned doubtfully: "Mr. Gao, what's so special about that jade pendant? Is it worth so much money? "

Gao Zhixuan's cloud mountain fog in Haiti made a rumor: "well Mr. Murong didn't know. This jade pendant is a burial jade. It was born in pairs! As like as two peas, you may be very familiar with antiques. So I have a piece of identical things in my hand. These two things are put together, and they are very valuable. It's the same with the zither score. There's just one page missing from my family's ancient zither collection. It's the one from your Murong family. Do you think it's a coincidence? "

Murong Xu was full of doubts: "well, I can get it, but Far water can't save near fire! Before I got two treasures, I was killed by the creditor! "

Gao Zhixuan nodded sincerely: "well, I'll pay off the debts of the gambling house for you tomorrow, which is a deposit for you. If you get these two treasures for me, I'll supply you another 80000 liang of silver. How about that?"

In the study of Murong mansion, Murong Xu stood respectfully in front of Murong Ting: "uncle, the business in the shop has been very good these days. Even the large amount of purchase and sale in the court has been found. It seems that Xiaoyu's marriage to his royal highness prince brings good luck to our Murong family!"

Murong Ting happily picked up his beard: "what my uncle valued was the happiness of whispers, not the identity of the crown princess! Xiaoyu not only married the most important man in Shang and Xia, but also married his beloved man. Who is lucky to have my daughter all over the world

Murong Xu continued to flatter: "uncle, you will be the abbot of Shang and Xia!"! Our Murong family relies on you to look up and be a man in Nanjin city! By the way, my nephew heard that my uncle has a Guqin manual. I'm crazy about Guqin recently. I want to borrow it from my uncle! "

Murong Ting watched Murong Xu warily: "it's not that uncle scolded you. You were not interested in elegant things since you were a child. Why did you suddenly think of this music score? Is it because of the encouragement and ambition? "

Murong Xu only felt that his heart was beating fiercely. He finally confirmed his guess. He knew that jade and wood were not easy things.

Murong Xu said tentatively, "uncle, although I don't like reading, and I can't shine on the lintel of Murong family, I'm also a descendant of Murong family! Uncle, please rest assured that my nephew only wants to have a look. He has no idea! "

Murong Ting shook his head and sighed: "Xu'er, it's a pity that you don't fight! Uncle has no children. He originally wanted to take you under his knee and pass on all the treasures of Murong family to you. But you have been infected with all kinds of bad habits since childhood. You really can't bear the burden of Murong family! "

Murong Xu knelt down in front of Murong Ting: "my nephew knew that when he was young, he didn't fight, which made Murong family ashamed! But my nephew has changed his ways. He wants to be a man who can stand up to heaven and share the burden with his uncle! My nephew doesn't ask for Murong family's treasure. He just wants to fight for Murong family's breath and be a responsible man! "

Murong Ting nodded happily: "Xu'er, you know, Xiaoyu married his Royal Highness Prince, she will never compete with you for Murong's family property. After all, these wealth are yours. However, you must let your uncle see your change, otherwise, he will share it with other Murong descendants! "

Murong Xu turned his eyes and said, "uncle, my nephew doesn't want to get used to everything. He just wants to see the Guqin manual!"
