After Bi Yue gave the banknotes out, she stood aside obediently and glanced at the princess. The two of them exchanged glances and continued to take out banknotes from their pockets and put them on the table.

Everyone looked at the pile of banknotes and swallowed unconsciously. They were dumbfounded. How could the princess be so generous? They were all itching to play with it.

A woman whispered, "Princess, I can play too."

Seeing that another little cutie had taken the bait, Jiang Li narrowed his eyes and said in an unnaturally gentle voice, "Of course, everyone comes to the palace to relax. What could be more fun than gambling? Come on, the next round is about to begin."

Hearing this, Lin Wanyue smiled shyly: "Thank you, Princess, you are so kind."

...Well, I feel a little guilty for some reason.

"Second sister, do you want to play? If not, go enjoy the flowers and don't get in the way here."

Jiang Xinrou snorted coldly: "Let's wait and see, why is my sister so anxious? Just play a few more rounds, and it won't be too late for me to catch up. Is there something fishy going on? Otherwise, why is my sister so anxious?"

Jiang Li shrugged and said in a relaxed tone: "How could that be? I am a good person, your sister, and I have never done anything bad. I have always believed that good people live long and bad people deserve to die."

Bah, she doesn't do anything bad, she's just good at fighting violence with violence.

After a few rounds, Jiang Li lost. He covered his chest and pretended to be heartbroken: "Hey, it seems that my luck today is really not good. I have lost several rounds in a row."

"Biyue, go and pour me some tea so I can drink some to relax."

Jiang Xinrou glanced at the banknotes in front of her and said proudly, "Oh, sister, I thought you were so great, but your luck is so bad. If you continue to gamble, I'm afraid you will lose everything."

Jiang Li's eyes were red, and he acted like a gambler, snorting: "Who said that? I won't lose. Come on, let's continue and see who loses in the end, hum..."

Everyone looked at each other and continued to follow.

Gradually they discovered that the eldest princess no longer lost every time, but would win occasionally. They attributed this to luck, and everyone's desire to win aroused them and kept urging her to play.

"Princess, please open it quickly and let us have a look."

"Okay, you guys better watch it carefully."

In the blink of an eye, an hour passed and the banknotes piled up in front of Jiang Li. The others stared at the banknotes in front of her with red eyes, their eyes full of unwillingness to admit defeat.

"Everyone, you have already lost. You can't continue gambling. Hey, the peach blossoms are so beautiful. Why don't we go see them?"

Jiang Xinrou stood up, her face full of anger: "No, why should you leave just because you won? It's just that your luck was better in the latter part. Your luck was so bad in the beginning that you almost lost everything."

"Keep betting, my sister, are you doing this on purpose? You want to run away if you win, right?"

Jiang Li blinked his eyes and said helplessly: "No, I am doing this for your own good. Since my sister doesn't believe me, let's continue. It's just that you have no money left. If you want to continue playing, you can only borrow it."

"I told you before that if you want to borrow it, you can, but you have to pledge it, such as clothes. For example, a piece of clothing can be pledged for ten taels of silver, and a higher price for good clothes is fine."

"Second sister, do you still want to play?"

Jiang Xinrou's eyes were red, and she was obviously drunk. She gritted her teeth and said, "Why not bet? I will definitely win the next time."

Jiang Li clapped his hands: "Very good, second sister is very courageous, keep going."

A stick of incense passed

The originally elegant pavilion was now a little chaotic. The man was naked from the waist up, with only his underpants on his lower body. Everything else was mortgaged, and his eyes were red like a hungry wolf.

Seeing this, Jiang Li was laughing so hard in his heart, but his face was still expressionless. He sighed and said, "Everyone, it's time to end it now. You have nothing left to pledge, especially my second sister."

"Look, if I take it off any more, I'll only be left with a bellyband. If someone sees me, my reputation will be ruined."

"Bi Yue, come and take the things away."

Bi Yue held back her laughter, stepped forward and sorted out the banknotes one by one. Under those burning gazes, she put the banknotes in her arms, glanced at her own princess, and whispered, "Princess, the young general and the eldest son are here."

Jiang Li's eyes lit up when he heard this: "Really? Then let's go find them to appreciate the flowers. As for the clothes here, take them all away and keep them safe. When they come with silver in the future, they can redeem them at any time."

Everyone watched as the master and servant left quickly. They looked at each other, frowned, and were a little embarrassed: "Do you feel that something is wrong?"

"… Nonsense. Even a fool should be able to see that we have all been fooled by the princess. It's not that she is not good at gambling. On the contrary, she is very good at it. Whether we win or lose, I'm afraid it's all controlled by her."

They all looked at the second princess and begged in a low voice: "Princess, you and the eldest princess are sisters after all, why don't you help us talk to them and get the clothes back? We lost the money, but we can't get the clothes back, which is really too embarrassing."

Jiang Xinrou was wearing the nanny's clothes, her face was livid: "Shut up, don't mention that bitch in front of me, you guys lost, go find someone to ask for clothes, don't bother me."

"Mammy, let's go back to the palace..."

The figure behind him was furious, as if he wanted to kill someone.

The women were relatively restrained, not daring to look at the disheveled scene across from them, and stood up and said goodbye.

"Brother Zuo, what should I do? I knew the princess was not a pushover, but how could I have been fooled? I regret it so much..."

Zuo An frowned and said, "That's enough. Stop arguing and find a way to get dressed and go home."

Compared to the chaos here, the other side is much more harmonious.

Jiang Li took Bi Yue to find the people and shouted, "A Yuan, big brother, you are here."

Mo Jue's heart skipped a beat. He was not used to this title. He was stunned for a moment and nodded gently: "Hello, Princess. Thank you for coming to pick us up."

"It's okay. Why are you here so late? Are you lost? Don't you have a eunuch to lead the way?"

"...Yes, but the eunuch deliberately took us the wrong way. We took a detour before we found the right way. Thank you for waiting for me, Princess. I wonder where the others are."

Jiang Li felt something was wrong when he heard this: "Brother, tell me the truth. After you entered the palace, did anyone bully you or deliberately lead you astray? Tell me boldly and I will go and settle the score with them."

Mo Jue glanced at his third brother and shook his head: "It's okay, he's just a little eunuch who obeys orders. It's useless even if we find him."

"Hmm? What does this mean? Can you explain it more clearly?"

"…We talked while we walked."

Not long after, Jiang Li raised his voice: "What? My father did it. He must be mentally retarded. Why would he make things difficult for you? You deserve to be punished. Wait, I will go and settle the score with him."

Mo Yuan reached out and grabbed her wrist: "Xiao Li, there is no point in looking for this matter. His Majesty will not admit it. But why did he do this?"
