The emperor faked his death? Never mind, I will ascend the throne directly!
Chapter 31 Entering the Gambling Game
After saying that, he walked straight up to the two guards.
When the two guards saw someone approaching, they immediately straightened up, and the halberds in their hands made a crisp clash sound.
"Who are you? No entry for outsiders!" one of the guards shouted sternly.
"My two elder brothers, I want to go in and play a few games with the young marquis."
Li Chengfeng spoke in a relaxed tone, as if he was just talking about a trivial matter.
The two guards looked at each other and then burst into laughter, as if they had heard a huge joke.
"Just you? What's the status of the young marquis? How could he play with a nobody like you? Get out of here now and stop getting in the way!"
Another guard looked Li Chengfeng up and down, his face full of disdain: "With your current level, I'm afraid you can't even match a finger of the young marquis. Go in? Can you afford to lose?"
Li Chengfeng did not get angry but laughed instead. He took out a thick stack of silver bills from his sleeve and shook it gently in the air, making a pleasant rustling sound.
This stack of banknotes, worth at least several thousand taels, looked particularly dazzling under the dim light, instantly attracting the attention of the surrounding gamblers.
"Take me to see the young marquis. These are all my capital." Li Chengfeng's tone was calm, but with unquestionable majesty.
The two guards were stunned, their eyes fixed on the stack of banknotes, as if they were possessed.
They work here and don't make much money all year round, but now this young man in front of them is giving them several thousand taels at once. This, this is simply pie in the sky!
The gamblers around also exclaimed in surprise, looking at Li Chengfeng with eyes full of envy and jealousy.
Who is this young man and why is he so generous?
The two guards swallowed, greed in their hearts overcoming reason.
One of them took the banknote and carefully put it in his arms, with a flattering smile on his face: "Sir, please come this way."
Walking through the carved wooden door, a sense of luxury hits you.
The room was magnificent, and the floor was covered with thick Persian carpets, which were soft and silent when stepped on.
A dazzling crystal chandelier hung from the beams, illuminating the entire room like daylight.
There are famous calligraphy and paintings hanging on the wall, each of which is priceless.
Beside the gambling table, the young men in gorgeous clothes were toasting each other, shouting and chatting, and the air was filled with the strong aroma of wine and cosmetics.
In the middle of the room, a young man in gorgeous clothes was kicking a trembling gambler to the ground.
"You piece of trash! You can't even afford to lose this little money, and yet you dare come to my place? Come on, drag him out!"
The young man was none other than the little tyrant of the capital, the young marquis of the current dynasty—Liu Xu.
He was handsome, but there was a lingering sense of hostility between his brows that made people afraid to approach him.
"The young marquis is so mighty!" The young masters around him cheered as if they were watching a good show.
Liu Xu brushed his sleeves proudly, his eyes swept over everyone, and finally landed on Li Chengfeng.
"Hey, here comes another one to give money."
The gambler, who had been kicked to the ground, was in tattered clothes and looked desperate. He struggled to crawl to Li Chengfeng's feet and begged, "Sir, please stop gambling. Please don't gamble anymore! This young marquis's casino is a shady place. If you win, you can't leave. If you lose, you will lose everything!"
Li Chengfeng looked down at the poor fellow and understood.
It seems that this young marquis is really a bully.
He reached out and helped the gambler up, saying calmly, "Thanks, I understand."
After saying that, he walked straight to the gambling table and sat down opposite Liu Xu.
"Young Marquis, would you like to play a couple of rounds?"
Liu Xu looked Li Chengfeng up and down. Seeing that he was dressed in ordinary clothes, he couldn't help but sneer, "You? You think you're worthy enough to gamble with this Marquis? Do you even know who I am?"
"I know, he's the little bully in Beijing." Li Chengfeng said in a relaxed tone, as if he was talking about a trivial matter.
"You dare to come if you know this? Aren't you afraid of losing everything, including your underwear?" Liu Xu glanced at him with contempt in his eyes.
"Is there no law in Luodu?" Li Chengfeng smiled. "Let's get started."
Liu Xu was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter, his laughter full of disdain and ridicule.
"The law of the king? In Luodu, this Marquis is the law of the king!"
Li Chengfeng pulled over a chair as if no one was around and sat down steadily.
He casually threw the stack of banknotes onto the gambling table, making a crisp "pop" sound, which caused the surrounding gamblers to gasp again.
Then, he patted the shoulder of the middle-aged man who had been silent beside him and said, "Brother, come here and try your luck."
The middle-aged man seemed a little hesitant. He rubbed his hands nervously, glanced at Liu Xu with a flickering look in his eyes, then looked at Li Chengfeng. He trembled his lips a few times, but in the end he said nothing.
"What are you afraid of? I'm here." Li Chengfeng's tone was calm, but with a reassuring power.
He pulled out a few banknotes from the stack and stuffed them into the middle-aged man's hand. "Play as you like. If you lose, it's on me."
The middle-aged man then took the banknote with trembling hands and placed a bet on the gambling table.
In the next few games, he seemed to be assisted by God and won several games in a row. The chips in front of him kept piling up.
The gamblers around were jealous and talked about it.
Liu Xu watched nonchalantly at first, thinking it was just a small fight, but as the middle-aged man won more and more times, his face gradually became gloomy.
He narrowed his eyes and looked at the middle-aged man carefully.
Suddenly, he stood up abruptly, pointed at the middle-aged man and cursed: "You old bastard! How dare you show up here! Have you forgotten how I beat you last time?!"
The middle-aged man trembled with fear, and the chips in his hand fell to the ground.
He lowered his head in fear, not daring to look into Liu Xu's fiery eyes.
Seeing this, the gamblers around retreated one after another, fearing that they would be implicated.
"Someone, get these two idiots out of here!"
Liu Xu roared, his voice echoing in the room, shaking the crystal chandelier slightly.
Several burly men rushed in and walked towards Li Chengfeng and the middle-aged man in a menacing manner.
The two guards moved and stood in front of Li Chengfeng like an eagle pouncing on a rabbit, stopping the burly men.
These two men looked thin, but they stood as still as two iron towers.
The big men rushed forward, shouting, but it was as if they had hit an invisible wall, and for a moment they could not move forward even half a step.
Liu Xu originally had a look of contempt on his face, but at this moment he narrowed his eyes slightly.
He looked at the two guards and was secretly surprised.
These two men's moves were clean and efficient, with both offensive and defensive capabilities. They were definitely not ordinary security guards.
Who is this kid?
A thought flashed through Liu Xu's mind: Could it be some young man who is pretending to be a pig but is actually a tiger?
He subconsciously glanced at the banknotes on the gambling table, and became even more suspicious.
