Kowloon wins

Chapter 188
The Mid-Autumn Festival is here, but the festive atmosphere in the capital is not very strong. The outer city is better, every house is decorated with lanterns and festoons, and laughter is everywhere, but the inner city is very cold. Although there are many people wearing red and green, but But there is not much lively atmosphere to speak of, there is only a bleak tension, and nothing else, it is all caused by debts. After three months, almost all the big and small dignitaries in the inner city have been urged, Every household is in panic, and they really don't want to go to this so-called festival. Of course, it is outside the palace, but the palace is full of excitement. It is not for other reasons, but because the old man ordered a family banquet. It's not dark yet, and the inside and outside of Qianqing Palace are already busy.

The time of Xu is approaching, and the sky is completely dark. The huge Qianqing Palace is brightly lit, and seven or eight tables are divided into two ends. The ground is separated by several bead curtains in the middle, which can be regarded as a way to avoid suspicion. Although the old man has not arrived yet, almost everyone who will participate in the family banquet has arrived, and they are laughing and talking in a low voice. It's not surprising that they seem to be friendly, even though the elder brothers have already fought to the death in private, but they still need to pay attention to their decency on the outside, and it's not surprising that they are happy of.

"The Emperor is here!"

Just when the elder brothers were joking with each other, they heard a shout, and then saw a large group of court ladies and eunuchs, surrounded by the red-faced old man, come out of the apse.

"The ministers (subjects, etc.) kowtow to Huang Ama (His Majesty)!"

Seeing the old man arrived, the people who were sitting around the table didn't dare to be negligent, and they all got up quickly, paying respects in unison.

"Forget it, let's all be flat."

The old man was obviously in a good mood, walked easily to the central seat and took a seat, then raised his hand in a very kind manner, and yelled warmly.

"My sons (officials, etc.) thank Huang Ama (His Majesty) Long En, long live my emperor, long live, long live!"

After the old man yelled, the group of people dared not to be careless, and thanked them according to the rules, but they didn't dare to sit down here, but they all stood with their hands down, as if they were listening to the instruction respectfully.

"Today, the old man has sent the big Yellow River carp from Henan, and I will do it as a favor. I invite all my lovers to taste it together. Come and sit down."

The old man looked around the crowd, and seeing that Master Shi was the only one missing among all the brothers, he frowned involuntarily, but he also raised his eyebrows and greeted him with a smile.

"Huang Ama said it well, my ministers are lucky."

"Yes, the third brother is far away in Henan, and he never forgets Huang Ama. He is really a role model for us and other brothers."

……

Although the three elder brothers, Fifth Master, Seventh Master, and Eleventh Master have not yet established a formal alliance with the third master, the relationship between them is already quite harmonious. It was the icing on the cake that made the old man happy, and he only said good things to make the old man happy, so that the fourth master and the eighth master all frowned secretly, but no one dared to spoil the old man's interest at this time, so they could only be They each cursed a few times in their hearts.

"Hahaha..., that's all, let's not talk, I'm hungry too, let's start now."

The old man is quite satisfied with the third master now. He heard a few masters talk about the goodness of the third master. The old man can hear it very well, and he is extraordinarily hearty when he smiles. However, he didn't comment on it. It was just a wave of the hand, and the order to start the banquet was issued.

The food at the royal banquet is delicious, but in front of the old man, who dares to let go of the food and drink, just to make fun of it, generally speaking some flattering words for the old man's pleasure, so left and right The big guys are used to doing these things, but there is nothing difficult about it, not only the elder brothers, but also the bachelors are no exception. Under such circumstances, the atmosphere in the hall He was enjoying himself endlessly, but at this moment, he saw Master Shi wandering into the hall in his old clothes with a face like a pan, the originally happy atmosphere suddenly turned cold.

"My son kowtowed to Huang Ama!"

Although the old ten's face was stinky, he did not dare to be less polite. He strode to the table and greeted him with a low voice.

"Humph!"

The old man has always disliked the vulgar son of the old ten, seeing that he came so late and dressed so shabby, he couldn't help but feel angry, so he squinted at the old eleven, not serious He snorted heavily.

"My son is ashamed to see Huang Ama, please punish Huang Ama!"

The old man was already furious, but the old man was lucky, not only did not admit his mistake, but he uttered some nonsense. As soon as these words came out, the old man's already ugly face suddenly became darker and darker. The child twitched, as if showing signs of anger.

"Tenth brother, how did you talk to Huang Ama, huh?"

The prince has always been at odds with Ba Ye and his gang. They have fought fiercely with each other several times, and they have already torn their faces in private. It's just that Ba Ye is too powerful, and the prince has nothing to do with Ba Ye. Now when he sees the old ten Speaking so bluntly, he thought he had seized a chance to get angry with the Eighth Master's group, and before the old man could speak, he had a straight face, revealed his identity as the prince, and scolded Eleven harshly.

"What's more, the younger brother has no ability, and no one will help the younger brother to pay back the debt of the treasury. It's not like the prince brother, you have a good life. If you take care of the debt, someone will help you to pay it back. The younger brother is incompetent, and the Mid-Autumn Festival will not be able to survive. , I can only go to Caishikou to sell property and pay off debts, why, why don’t you come a step late, it’s my brother’s willingness, hmph!”

It's good that the prince didn't speak up, but this scolding immediately provoked a big counterattack from the old eleven Tongzi, who immediately choked and made the prince blush.

"you……"

Although the crown prince paid off the treasury debt, it was all the money that the old man gave him privately. He thought it was a secret, but he didn't expect it to be exposed in public by the old ten.

"Seller? Brother ten, what is going on with you?"

Being interrupted by the prince, a pre-rehearsed scene almost went out of tune. Since Master Jiu didn't dare to let the old ten play carelessly, he snatched away from the side and asked in a surprised tone.

"What else can happen, my little brother can't live on anymore, the gang of scumbags from the household department come to the door every day to press for debts, my little brother has no money to pay back, so I can only sell my property to pay for it, poor my family. After a while, even the clothes for going out are gone, and the clothes we are wearing here are all borrowed, and we have to return them after eating, that's all!"

Old Ten straightened up on his knees, blushing, and scolded the people in the household department with hatred, but he was actually pointing at the fourth master's nose and scolding the bastard. I was stunned.

"It's fair to pay back the debt. The ass that I did, I cleared it myself. What happened to the seller's property? Who told you to stretch your hand into the national treasury!"

Upon hearing Old Ten's nonsense, Fourth Master's expression drooped immediately, but he didn't say anything to refute, but Old Thirteen couldn't hold back anymore, and said coldly and ironically.

"You bastard, if it wasn't for you being a little boy to mess around, those underlings would dare to act so arrogantly, I will fight you!"

Old Thirteen was so impatient, Old Ten took advantage of the opportunity to get angry, cursed loudly, and jumped up from the ground regardless of the occasion, and with a tiger pounce, Lao Shi had already The thirteen company and their chairs fell to the ground together.

"Oh, why are we fighting!"

"Stop hitting, stop!"

"Bastard, An dare to act recklessly, fight them away!"

……

The tenth and the thirteenth are both martial arts practitioners, when they rolled on the ground, the sound of their fists hitting their flesh suddenly became louder, and all the people in the banquet turned pale with fright, they all shouted in panic, All the elder brothers rushed forward, some were really fighting, some were shouting when they couldn't squeeze in, and some were practicing Taiping boxing, the hall became a mess.

"Hit, keep hitting, kill it, you bastard!"

The old man didn't expect that a good night banquet would turn into a full-fledged martial arts scene, and immediately his eyes were staring with gold stars. In his fury, he slammed the table hard and cursed angrily.

"Pull them away!"

The eldest brother was just watching with cold eyes, but when he saw the old man was already furious, then he took up the prestige of the eldest brother, relying on the advantage of being tall and powerful, he slammed into the crowd like a hungry tiger, roaring, While swinging his fists recklessly, he beat and pushed all the elder brothers, and then he didn't care about the expressions of the elder brothers, he pulled his hands and forcibly pulled the old ten and the old thirteen apart. But I never thought that the two brothers would get angry early, and I didn't care who was pulling the fight. With the fluttering of the four arms, I gave the elder brother a fistful of punches, which made the elder brother howl miserably. The image of the original heroic protector was instantly transformed into that of a clown.

"You bastard, die!"

The elder brother wanted to show off, but he received more than a dozen heavy punches in succession, and immediately became angry. He completely forgot the original intention of persuading the fight.

Well, the scale of this scuffle became bigger and bigger, the ping-pong-pong scene was so lively, and the elder brothers next to them were shouting and shouting, leaving the old seventeen and other younger brothers Everyone was crying, the hall was in chaos, and the old man was so angry that he was panting heavily.

"Samurai in front of the temple, pull them away!"

Seeing that the situation was not right, Ma Qi couldn't care less, put on the airs of leading the guards, ran to the front of the hall, and called the guards who were on duty outside the hall. The inner guards swarmed up and pulled all three of them away, but they could hold them back, but they couldn't stop the mouths of the three elder brothers. The scolding and crying in the hall , noisy noise into the sidelines, really lively!
