Rubbing his forehead with a splitting headache, Li Wangyou vowed again that he would never drink with old hooligans like Cheng Yaojin in the future.

He had to go to the palace today, so after Li Wangyou woke up, under the service of Cheng's maidservant, he hastily washed up and prepared to say goodbye to Cheng Yaojin.

But before Li Wangyou went to bid farewell to Cheng Yaojin, the eunuchs sent by Li Er had already approached the gate of Duke Lu's mansion.

Li Er urgently summoned Hu County Uncle Li Wangyou into the palace!

The servant also went back and forth to find Li Wangyou.

Before dawn, the morning drum beat and the palace gate opened.The servant who passed the word of mouth rode to Dingzhou Village, Huxian County, and knocked on the door of Huxian Bo's Mansion.

In the end, he was in vain. When he learned that the Hu County uncle did not come back yesterday, but stayed in Lu Guogong's mansion, the servant could only be very tragic, and rushed back to Chang'an City again.

When he found Li Wangyou, the servant was already wet, as if he had just been fished out of the water.He looked at Li Wangyou sadly: "Hi Bo'an, Hu County, the saint has called you into the palace immediately, let's go."

Li Wangyou was stunned, why was Li Er so anxious to find him?

He suddenly felt a little flustered, the empress is going to give birth, right?

If that was the case, his 1 taels of gold would be in vain, and his attempt to dig a huge hole for the aristocratic family would come to naught.

"Do you know what the saint called me for? But what's wrong with Her Royal Highness?"

The servant shook his head: "I have never heard of anything wrong with Her Majesty the Empress, it was the saint who called you into the palace."

He paused, then whispered: "The sage doesn't seem to be in a good mood, Hu Xianbo don't waste time, let's enter the palace quickly."

Hearing that it was not about Empress Changsun, Li Wangyou was a little relieved.

He also didn't care to greet Cheng Yaojin, Cheng Chumo and the others, so he hurried out of Lu Guogong's mansion with the servant and went to Taiji Palace.

Fortunately, Duke Lu's mansion was near the imperial city, and before a stick of incense, Li Wangyou had already entered the Lizheng Hall, and saw Li Er with an angry face.

Seeing that Li Er's complexion was really not good, Li Wangyou didn't know what happened, so he could only show respect to Li Er cautiously.

"My nephew has seen my uncle, and my uncle is well."

"What a fart!" Li Er actually swears directly: "I ask you, do you take me and the queen seriously?"

Li Wangyou was taken aback by Li Er's scolding, and thought for a long time, thinking that he didn't offend this guy?What is Li Er's so-called temper?

"Uncle, why did you say that, what did my nephew do wrong, please teach me a lesson, my nephew must correct me."

"Hmph, I'm too lazy to talk to you! Mi Tuo, tell this bastard what he did!"

Following Li Er's side all the time, the eunuch Mi Tuo, who was like Li Er's shadow, nodded slightly at Li Wangyou: "Boss Huxian, Baiqisi came to report, saying that in all the squares and cities in Chang'an City, there are It is rumored that Uncle Huxian went to Yongyi Casino yesterday and bet 1 taels of gold. He bet on when the queen will give birth to a child, and that he will be born as a prince. Uncle Huxian, is there such a thing?"

When Li Wangyou heard this, he immediately understood why Li Er was angry.

He smiled and nodded: "That's right, it's true."

Li Er saw that he not only admitted it generously, but also had a playful smile on his face, without any repentance, so angry that he almost rushed over and kicked him.

Seeing that Li Er was really angry, Li Wangyou quickly explained: "Uncle, there is a reason for my nephew to do this!"

Li Er's eyes widened: "Then let me listen to you! If you dare to speak nonsense, be careful, I will have someone drag you out and punish you with a stick!"

It's no wonder that Li Er was so annoyed. Originally, he was suffocated when he started betting on the fact that his queen gave birth to a powerful family.Who knew that Baiqisi came to report that there were rumors that his most important nephew, Li Wangyou, also went to the gambling shop opened by the Wang family in Taiyuan to place bets, how could this make him not angry?

And this bastard kid not only placed a bet, but also placed a heavy bet of 1 taels of gold, which is really annoying!

If he can't take care of these aristocratic families, could it be that Li Er can't take care of Li Wangyou?

This was the reason why he was so anxious today that he ordered his servant to recruit Li Wangyou to the Lizheng Palace.

Li Wangyou chuckled, took out the note from the pocket around his waist, and showed it to Li Er with both hands.

"Uncle, my nephew went to the Wang family's Yongyi gambling shop in Taiyuan to place a bet. This is a bet, just take a look."

Li Er took it casually, glanced at it, couldn't help but widen his eyes, and looked at Li Wangyou in disbelief: "You bastard, are you crazy? How dare you bet with Taiyuan Wang on such a condition? Really think that 1 Isn’t ten thousand taels of gold money?”

"Uncle, if my nephew is not sure, how can I go to the gambling shop to bet? Hehe, the gold in my nephew's house is not blown by a strong wind. I don't want to give it to the Wang family in Taiyuan like this."

"Then what do you mean? Is it true that Guanyin's servant will give birth to a prince in four days? How do you know?" Li Er asked suspiciously.

Faced with Li Er's questioning, Li Wangyou could only repeat the words of the "fool" Cheng Yaojin and the group of big bosses.

The third time he said this lie, he almost believed it to be true.

After listening to this explanation, Li Er was somewhat skeptical: "Ziyou, what you said is true? This is not a joke!"

"Uncle, nephew is naturally sure, so he dared to bet against Taiyuan Wang's like this. My nephew passed by the Yongyi gambling house yesterday, and saw that they started betting on the birth of their aunt, and felt very angry. The little nephew thought about it, since they are so rampant, they have to be taught a profound lesson, let these aristocratic families know that the majesty of the royal family cannot be profaned. That's why the little nephew returned to the mansion and mobilized all the people in the mansion The money, take it to Taiyuan Wang's gambling house to bet."

Li Er glared at him, but his face softened a lot.

"You brat, why didn't you tell me yesterday that you knew when Guanyin's maidservant gave birth? Guanyin's maidservant is really pregnant with a prince? You didn't lie to me?"

Li Wangyou said with a smile: "Uncle, my nephew took real money to gamble with the Wang family in Taiyuan, even if it's a joke, my nephew wouldn't spend so much money to ruin the family, right?"

Li Er naturally had to believe what he said.

Li Er paced back and forth in the hall for a few steps, then suddenly raised his head to look at Mi Tuo: "How much gold is available to the Queen?"

The royal property is all under the control of Empress Changsun.As the governor of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, Mi Tuo naturally knew it well.

"Back to everyone, there are about 8 taels of gold that can be mobilized at any time." Mi Tuo immediately understood what Li Er was thinking, and immediately replied, "Do you want to transfer some of the gold and go to those gambling houses to bet?"

Before Li Er nodded, Li Wangyou embarrassedly laughed at the interruption: "Well, hehe, Uncle, I'm afraid this matter is inappropriate."

"Oh? Why is that?" Li Er was puzzled.

"Well, hehe, I'm afraid those gambling houses won't accept uncle's bets, and then they probably won't be able to pay back." Li Wangyou rubbed his neck, very embarrassed: "Yesterday, hehe, nephew, um, go After entering Lu Guogong's mansion, Uncle Cheng also wants to place a bet..."

Li Er couldn't help snorting coldly: "Cheng Zhijie wants to bet, why can't I bet?"

"Uh, yesterday Uncle Cheng also hosted a banquet for Qiao Guogong, Bao Guogong...they." Li Wangyou hesitated, and said the names of eight or nine princes and county princes: "They are all going to the gambling house to place bets today. Probably a total of 10 taels of gold will be bet..."

Before he finished speaking, Li Er already understood what he meant.

Calculated in this way, if the aristocratic family lost the bet, they would have to spend at least 50 taels of gold.He wants to place another bet, and I'm afraid those aristocratic families won't be able to afford it even if they go bankrupt...

432 I like it very much

Seeing that he had no chance to take advantage of the family, Li Er couldn't help blowing his beard and staring at Li Wangyou with resentment.

But the matter has come to this, he can only let it go.

As a majestic emperor, he can't lose his face and compete with Cheng Yaojin and the others to place bets, right?
