Chapter 244 How Often Have You Looked at the King?

Looking at Zhao Changhe drinking like crazy, Huangfu Shaozong was speechless. This guy really put on a perfect look. If this wave can make Beijing famous, it may be half of the gifts from everyone, and the other half is the posture he created.

What about not listening to the name, not drawing the sword, not getting up, using one hand, and too little wine.

He is so arrogant, but he really has the ability to be arrogant. If Huangfu Shaozong doesn't do it himself, no one else can make him move.

He deserves to be famous.

Learned it.

Until Zhao Changhe finished this bowl, no one came forward to challenge him. It can be regarded as a vivid lesson for the young people in the capital - why is the Hidden Dragon List the Hidden Dragon List.

There are thousands of warriors in the world, and there are only two or three hundred on the list. Why?

If you are not far superior to your peers, how can you be called a Hidden Dragon? The people on the list and the people below the list are not on the same track at all, not to mention Zhao Changhe, who is also at the forefront among the Hidden Dragons!

Especially when Zhao Changhe was only at the fifth or sixth level of Xuanguan, he was already at the top of the list, standing out among a group of peers at the seventh or eighth level. People now knew why.

His reputation was well deserved.

Not to mention the others, even Huangfu Shaozong had given up the idea of ​​fighting with Zhao Changhe at this moment, as he found that he might not be able to beat him. It was better to maintain the face of being two places higher than him. If they really fought, what would be the use of forcing him to draw his sword? He would just give away his ranking for nothing... That was true hospitality.

It was still better like this. While others were in awe of Zhao Changhe, he, the eleventh, was also looked up to, wasn't he?

In silence, the second brother carried the new wine jar upstairs with a face full of admiration, put it in front of Zhao Changhe and nodded: "Our shopkeeper said that this wine is the shopkeeper's gift, to honor the hero."

Huangfu Shaozong twitched his mouth: "What if the young master has no money?"

"No, no, I don't mean that."

Huangfu Shaozong slapped a golden leaf heavily on the table: "Go, get ten more jars, and serve the signature dishes quickly! I'm treating you, so I'm doing you a favor? I'm not stupid."

Zhao Changhe laughed dumbly: "Brother Huangfu, whether you treat me or not, I am very grateful to you."

Huangfu Shaozong looked at him meaningfully for a long time, sighed and said: "I've set up a stage for you to show off in front of others, right?"

Zhao Changhe clapped his hands and laughed: "Brother Huangfu is also a wonderful person."

Huangfu Shaozong gestured to his left and right: "Carry them out."

The servants of the Marquis' Mansion came forward one after another and carried the challengers who were lying all over the floor downstairs. The atmosphere was quiet for a while, and Huangfu Shaozong finally regained his composure, pouring wine leisurely: "Brother Zhao, is he too ostentatious?"

Zhao Changhe smiled: "Isn't this the stage set by Brother Huangfu?"

"I didn't expect Brother Zhao to be so arrogant. I thought he would be a little more low-key and humble... After all..."

"Watching and clapping and laughing at the arrogance... What's wrong with being arrogance, what's wrong with being arrogant?" Zhao Changhe raised the bowl again and drank it all in one gulp: "Since I'm here, why should I shrink? If there is only this little bit of wind and cloud, I will be disappointed."

"Boom!" Dark clouds gathered, lightning and thunder, and heavy rain poured down.

The sky was completely dark.

The noisy restaurant became quiet, the rain hit the building outside the window, and there was silence inside.

Huangfu Shaozong couldn't hide his admiration in his eyes. This person is so interesting. No wonder his sister wants to get in touch with him more.

It seems that this person will cause a storm when he enters the capital... But he is sitting on the balcony here and drinking freely, and the whole capital is dead silent. Except for the young man who came to challenge Qianlong, the expected storm did not happen at all.

It was as if a mere sixth-level Xuanguan suppressed the capital.

Although I knew it was not the case... He suddenly entered the capital, and others were also unexpected. Even what attitude to use towards him might require a day or two of fierce debate to get results. And each of them has their own concerns, such as his identity as Huangfu Shaozong and the imperial concubine standing behind him. Has it proved a certain tendency?

If someone takes action, will someone else intercept it, and then everything will be put on the table, who wants it?

The royal family's struggle for succession is very cautious, and no one dares to show up easily. Xia Longyuan is still alive...

So let him laugh and scold wildly, and the capital is silent.

Where did the tiger's den and dragon's pool come from? It's just like this!

Although he knew the reason, Huangfu Shaozong still couldn't help but admire him. Going to Beijing with the sixth level of Xuanguan, as the key to success, facing countless world rankings, countless forces, who can be so arrogant and proud?

In the eyes of those who are interested, it almost declares that who else can do it in the domain today!

In the distant tower, Tang Wanzhuang watched quietly, her beautiful eyes gradually blurred. On the other side opposite her, Zhuque raised his arm.

"Brother Huangfu." After drinking for a while, the night deepened, and Zhao Changhe seemed to be drunk: "Is there a casino here? I like to gamble a few hands when I'm free."

I thought you were going to ask if there were any prostitutes here... Yihong Tower is across the street. I'll take your ride there, and my sister won't scold me, so why ask about the gambling house?

I haven't heard that this person likes gambling... Does it mean gambling with his life?

Huangfu Shaozong's mind raced, and he said slowly: "Yes... At the end of this street, just around the corner, is Anle Casino."

"Oh, Kangle, Anle, chain?"

Huangfu Shaozong shook his head: "I've never heard of Kangle Casino."

"Oh..." Zhao Changhe tapped his head: "That broken casino is far away in Jianhu Lake, it's not surprising that you young masters in the capital have never heard of it... How about, come with me to play?"

"No, my family is extremely strict about this punishment... I'm afraid my sister will break my legs if she finds out. If you want to go, go by yourself, brother Zhao."

"Okay, I'll go play by myself."

In the wind and rain, Zhao Changhe staggered out of the restaurant: "I'm very happy. Thank you Brother Huangfu for your hospitality."

Huangfu Shaozong stood upstairs and looked down. He didn't know why Zhao Changhe went to the gambling house, but he knew why Zhao Changhe deliberately went out alone, so he deliberately didn't go to see him off.

A straight avenue, a long street with heavy rain. The lanterns on the left and right swayed and creaked in the rain, intertwined with the crackling sound of the rainstorm, forming a unique symphony.

There were few pedestrians, passing by in a hurry with umbrellas, and a swaying drunk man walked in the middle of the road as if there was no one around.

If there is a flash of sword light at this time, is it particularly suitable for the occasion?

However, until Zhao Changhe finished walking the long street on a rainy night, there was no movement.

Zhao Changhe seemed to have not drunk enough wine, so he took out the wine gourd and took another big sip, then laughed away: "The smoke in the capital is nothing more than that! It turns out that the pure Mr. Dai can bring the most straightforward answer. Before you and I , thinking too much!”

No one knows who "you" refers to, and everyone who hears it feels that it refers to themselves.

It's a pity that the real "you" is still in the Four Symbols Sect.

"Bang!" Zhao Changhe staggered open the casino door.

The guard hurriedly stopped him: "This young man, you are not allowed to bring knives into the gambling house."

Zhao Changhe looked at him sideways and grinned: "What if this is the knife I bet on?"

"Boom!" There was thunder in the sky again.

Finally, a sigh came from the gambling room: "No one in the capital dares to accept this bet."

Zhao Changhe smiled and said: "You don't dare to take the number eight on the list?"

"Don't dare, let alone the fifth master is not here, we don't dare to make the decision for him." The man said leisurely: "But there is no problem in letting the young master bring a knife... The gambling house is not just a gambling house, there are the best Hot spring water and the best dealer will accompany you on your trip.”

"Yes, yes, you are more interesting than Huangfu Shaozong."

"A prince's family has too many concerns, no matter Huangfu or Cui Tang. I don't have that much care. When guests come, we just welcome them. Young Master please."

"Who said we are particular?" Baoqin's angry voice came from behind: "Young master Zhao is my master's friend, and he helped our family get rid of the Maitreya sect's conspiracy. The lady said that I should have received you, but I am busy today, so let me Mr. Huangfu is just here to receive you."

Zhao Changhe twitched the corner of his mouth, "What are you doing? I have something to do!"

Wouldn’t you be anxious to hear a dealer accompany you to a hot spring?

The man in the gambling house was also a little helpless: "Since Miss Qin said so, we have no reason to force the customers, so please do it."

Before he finished speaking, Huangfu Shaozong came in a hurry: "Well, Brother Zhao, although I can't accompany you to the gambling house, the living room at home has been fully decorated, and the maid is gentle..."

Before he finished speaking, a sharp voice came from the distance: "The Queen has decreed that Zhao Changhe be invited to the palace to see her."

As if the wind and rain had stopped for a moment, Zhao Changhe laughed loudly: "What kind of queen, what kind of head, what kind of lord. I want to enter a gambling house, what does it have to do with you?"

After saying that, he ignored no one and walked in the door.

Huangfu Shaozong opened his mouth, closed it again, hugged Qin and ran away in tears.

An old eunuch stood in the distance, trembling with anger: "How can this be unreasonable..."
