I directed the Xuanwumen Incident

Chapter 379 Betting on Who Can Lead the Battle?The palace has become a casino!Xu Fenglei pays fifty? !

Snapped!Snapped!Snapped!
Following the waving of the net whip in the palace, the courtiers also entered the Tai Chi Palace in an orderly manner, and participated in the court meeting as usual.

From spring to autumn, under the rule of Emperor Li Shimin, the Great Tang Dynasty was in a state of prosperity, and its national power was growing steadily.

Now, it is already the third year.

The once-a-ten-year Great Court Meeting has also been held nearly a hundred times, but this time today is a bit unusual.

"Have you heard all about it?"

"Um……"

"Hey, why can't your Majesty figure it out so much? Datang's life just got better, and he's going to use swords again..."

Several civil servants frowned and complained in a low voice.

Their words quickly aroused the refutation of the military generals on the opposite side.

"You know what a fart! This is not using a knife, this is stretching out your fists and feet! Let Datang develop better! Every day when you sleep, you see a barbarian with a knife lying next to you, and he doesn't respond to it every now and then. what?"

"That's right, I strongly support His Majesty's use of troops against the Turks! The old and new hatreds of so many years should be forgotten!"

"That's right, he must be beaten!"

Talking about spitting people, these generals are very talkative, who dare not back away from the spit flying all over the place?
The few civil servants who complained just now became dumb.

This is the ethos of the Tang Dynasty, especially martial arts.

In fact, it is useless for them to talk about it, because His Majesty the Emperor actually made the decision to use troops against the Turks last year, and the preparations and mobilization have already started.

Holding the Grand Court Assembly today is nothing more than closing the altar to worship the commander-in-chief, and announcing it to the world.

"Hey, tell me, who will His Majesty choose to be handsome this time?"

Cheng Yaojin smiled and said,

"It's about to go up, I'll make an offer, let's take a small gamble, how about it?"

As soon as this remark came out, it immediately aroused the interest of everyone around him.

"Ham, do you still need to guess? If it is possible, His Majesty must want to personally take command and go out to enjoy the battle."

Yuchi Gong snorted softly,

"But it's impossible, so it must be Li Jing! After all, it's a war against the Turks, and His Majesty can't be kidding."

"Li Jing is the most stable! What are the odds?"

Cheng Yaojin grinned.

"Everyone knows what you know."

he said,

"One compensation, one plus [-]%, how about it, how much?"

Yuchi Gong rolled his eyes.

"Just so much?"

He was dissatisfied,

"It's not enough to fit between the teeth! You are too stingy to be in charge!"

Cheng Yaojin laughed loudly and shook his head.

"I'm on the farm, not doing charity!"

He laughed and scolded,

"If the payout is high, I won't make any money. You told me to drink the northwest wind?"

"That's it, can you suppress it?"

Yuchi Gong thought for a moment, then said decisively;
"Press!"

"Damn it, why don't you want the money that came to you for free? I bet 500 taels of silver, and it's fine if I win 100 taels. I'll take the money later and go for fun."

"If you can't come up with the money for a while, you can write it down for me!"

"That's great!" Cheng Yaojin responded cheerfully.

In broad daylight, in front of so many people, they are all dignified people, and they are not afraid of anyone who repudiates their debts!

I saw him take out the small notebook he carried with him and write down a sum.

Everyone: "???"

What an old boy, did your mother come prepared?Old Dog Village!

"It is said that General Li Jing is stable, but I don't think so."

Hou Junji stood behind, the old god said,

"General Li Jing is very good at fighting, and he will fight big battles, but you have to know that his contribution...is already great."

"If the Turks are destroyed again, the credit will be multiplied a few more times. When the time comes, the triumphant class teacher, how will you let His Majesty seal it?"

"Besides, Li Jing is not the only general in the imperial court who can fight a big battle. I think there are at least four other people who are capable of fighting this battle!"

His words attracted everyone's attention.

"Really?"

"Tell me, tell me... who else?"

Hou Junji smiled and said in a deep voice:
"First of all, Cao Guogong Li Ji is one. He has always been calm in battle. Compared with Li Jing, he is not far behind. It's just that he is a little weaker in terms of merit, but it is an advantage for the conquest of the Turks. .”

"Then there is Zhang Gongjin. He has been guarding the border since the founding of the Tang Dynasty. He is very familiar with the situation of the Turks. He also knows the mountains and rivers in the north. This is a huge advantage! In addition, he also has the ability to command. Cai, who has repeatedly made military exploits on the border and defeated the Turks! I will not be surprised if His Majesty takes him as the commander in chief."

After some analysis, everyone nodded repeatedly.

"Rational, reasonable! From this point of view, there are still many famous generals in our Tang Dynasty! Hahaha..."

"That's natural, you can pick a few at will, and you can provoke the leader!"

"Junji, Your Majesty hasn't arrived yet. We are idle, you continue to analyze, we love to listen!"

"Yes, who are the other two?"

Waiting was boring, and the ministers gathered together to have fun.

Li Ji in the front also showed a smile when he heard the words, and looked at Li Jing in the front row.

"Pharmacist, they seem to be talking about us, and Cheng Yaojin even made a bet."

he laughed,
"It seems that you have the lowest odds and are the most popular candidate for His Majesty's appointment as commander in chief. Do you want to go over and listen?"

Li Jing heard the words, but his eyes were on his nose, his nose was on his heart, and he didn't move.

Just listen to him whisper:

"They're boring, they're just entertaining us, I'm not interested in joining in the fun."

Li Ji laughed.

"It's nothing for entertainment, it's a kind of recognition. I don't know what my odds are."

he waved,

"I'll crush you and make a small profit from him!"

"Hahaha……"

Obviously, Li Ji didn't think he would be appointed as the coach.

Li Jing curled his lips and did not respond.

And Zhangsun Wuji and the others standing opposite him were also in high spirits at this moment.

"Let's go play, too, what should I say?"

Changsun Wuji pushed Xu Fenglei, and said with a smile,

"Grand Master, I reckon that 1000% of the money is Li Jing. If you press 200 taels, you can get [-] taels. It's a sure profit without losing money!"

"Be bold, let's earn some interest! How about it?"

Xu Fenglei shook his head.

"Forget it, I'm not interested in gambling, and I don't want to play a dime."

he refused,

"Besides, there is no sure win in this world, and Cheng Yaojin is not a boy who looses money."

"You, take it easy."

"The grand master is really cautious. He is worthy of being a master of Yi Xue, and he abides by the gentleman's duty." Changsun Wuji cupped his hands and complimented him a few words.

Immediately, he turned his head to look at Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui, Xiao Yu and others, and said:

"Everyone, what do you say? Happy, happy?"

Three people: "..."

"I agree with what the grand master said, don't gamble, don't play such clever tricks." Fang Xuanling said.

"Me too." Du Ruhui immediately followed up, firmly following Xu Fenglei's footsteps.

"I'll listen again." Xiao Yu said hesitantly, "It's okay to be happy, I don't expect to make money from this."

Changsun Wuji rolled his eyes.

"You guys, it's just that you are too timid. This is clearly a profitable business, and you are still looking ahead!"

he waved,

"Go, Mr. Xiao Ge, let's go and have a look."

"Follow me to buy this time, don't you want to donate to a temple? This wave, I guarantee you will earn enough!"

Pulled by Changsun Wuji, Xiao Yu followed him with half push and half push.

As for Hou Junji, now he is speaking again.

"The third one is Li Xiaogong, Prince of Hejian County!"

He said forcefully,
"It is said that General Li Jing has made the most contributions, but when he conquered the world, he was the deputy commander! The commander is Prince Li Xiaogong of Hejian! We can't say that the credit is all due to the deputy commander, and it has nothing to do with the commander, right? That doesn't make sense. .”

"Generally speaking, it is the cooperation between King Hejian and General Li that can achieve such a beautiful record."

"And after King Hejian was transferred to the northern border, he also made great achievements in defending the border, so... he has military prestige and ability, which is enough! It is entirely possible to ask for a commander! After all, if the coach has the overall situation and strategic power, the two point, he also has."

After some analysis, all the ministers nodded their heads.

Makes sense!

Even Li Xiaogong himself moved his ears slightly and couldn't help touching his nose.

Hearing Hou Junji's bragging, it turned out that he also had a chance, ha...

"Then who is the last person?"

Yuchi Gong asked,

"Is it Lao Tzu? Or that kid Cheng Yaojin?"

"We are both cavalry generals, and we are both galloping and invincible on the battlefield! Therefore, we can maximize our advantages when we fight on the grassland!"

"But in general, I, Old Hei, are better, hehe..."

He laughed and was suddenly kicked by Cheng Yaojin.

"Fuck you uncle!"

Cheng Yaojin scolded,
"Will I be inferior to you? I can hang and beat you by riding a horse backwards!"

The two spat when they disagreed, but Hou Junji snorted coldly.

"Both of you are fierce generals, so it's okay to charge forward, but you're not qualified to be a coach."

he said,

"As I said just now, the most important thing to be a coach is strategizing! It doesn't matter if you have no hands, but you must have a good strategy, you must have a sense of the overall situation, and you must have rules in arranging troops! For example, Zhuge Kongming That way, you can be a qualified coach even if you don’t know how to fight.”

"You two, can you do it?"

When Yu Chigong heard this, he was immediately unconvinced.

"We can't do it, but you can do it?" He said angrily.

"Of course it can!"

Hou Junji proudly said,

"Although I'm not talented, I have a good understanding of military strategies and a sense of the overall situation. The formation of troops is even more my strength!"

"It's not bragging. If Your Majesty puts me, Hou Junji, in command, I will definitely be able to defeat the Turks and return in triumph!"

After some rhetoric, his whole demeanor changed, as if he had given up on me.

However, the audience did not buy it.

"whispering sound!"

Yu Chigong and Cheng Yaojin immediately booed, and there was a burst of boos.

"Junji, you motherfucker, don't put money on your face! It's just you, still in command?"

Yuchi Gong mocked,

"Let's save it, let you Hou Junji go to fight Turks, can you fight? You don't have that ability to know! Such ability can't just be blown out!"

He turned his head to look at Cheng Yaojin, and said loudly:

"Come on, bite the gold, give him a fix, put up the odds, let this old boy recognize the reality!"

Swish.

"One pays ten, and there are those who bet on Hou Junji to be in command, one pays ten!"

Cheng Yaojin wrote down the odds in his notebook and shouted loudly,
"Come on, someone who wants to send money comes here!"

"Bet 10 taels, you can earn 100 taels! Bet 100 taels, you can earn 1000 taels! Of course, the bigger possibility is that you will lose all your money and put it all in my pocket, hahaha!"

Otherwise, these two old fellows were hurting, once they sang and harmonized, they immediately gave Hou Jun a whole lot of attention!
"You, you!"

How could Hou Junji stand such irony, his face turned as red as a pig's liver, and he said angrily,

"Don't underestimate me!"

"I press myself! Press 1000 taels!"

Cheng Yaojin: "?!"

"Really?"

He rolled his eyes and said,
"Junji, are you not confused? The brothers are just joking."

"Do you really want to send me money?"

"Bookkeeping!" Hou Junji roared, "Wait, I will slap you in the face when the time comes!"

In his panic, he lost his mind and made an absurd move.

Yu Chigong and Cheng Yaojin looked at each other.

"Okay, don't renege on your debt when the time comes..."

Cheng Yaojin quickly wrote down the account, and wrote down Hou Junji's account.

Then, he also knew that he could no longer provoke this guy, so he turned to the ministers and yelled:
"The new odds are out!"

"Li Ji is in command, one pays two!"

"Mr. Zhang would like to be in command, one pays three!"

"Li Xiaogong is in command, one pays three plus fifty percent!"

"When Yu Chigong is in command, you will pay five for one; if Cheng Yaojin is in command, you will pay seven for one; if Hou Junji is in command, you will pay ten for one!"

"Come, come, buy it and keep it, buy it and keep it!"

"If you think this is boring, there is a new game next. Let's not bet on who will be in command, but which general will be able to go out with the army. This is more likely and more fun! You can give it a go! "

This old guy turned a good palace into a big casino!

The face of the supervisory censor was distorted, and he was memorizing a small notebook, his hands were about to cramp!

He wants to ruthlessly participate in Cheng Yaojin, and participate in all these participants!

"Idle is idle, come and have fun, I will pressure Li Jing, 100 taels!"

"I think Li Ji has hope, and it's 10 taels, he's happy."

"Wealth and wealth are in danger! The King of Hejian has great hopes, 50 taels of Hejian King!"

"If you really want wealth and wealth, why don't you beat Grand Master Xu Fenglei and shoot Du Ruhui? Their odds are as high as 1 to [-], [-] to [-]! I beat Grand Master Xu Fenglei, hahaha, he He also led soldiers and made military achievements back then, what if His Majesty has a sudden whim?"

"Oh, you are purely giving money to Cheng Yaojin! It's not like you are so eager to have money..."

"It's just... I'd better play it safe. I'm not going to pressure the coach, but I'm going to fight. Cao Guogong and Li Ji are bound to go. Although the odds are extremely low, at least it's a safe bet."

"..."

For a while, all the ministers bet one after another.

Cheng Yaojin's mouth was almost grinning to the ear, and the book was densely written... What the hell, it's all silver!
After a while, I must open a casino in Chang'an. It's so cool to make money!

And several important ministers in the front row also came over listening to the sound.

When Xu Fenglei saw that his name was also listed, he really couldn't hold back.

"Cheng Yaojin, am I also on the list?"

He laughed and scolded,

"Damn, pay fifty for one, and eighty for Du Ruhui? You really have it!"

Looking at the odds book in the hands of the old gambler, Xu Fenglei couldn't laugh or cry.
