~8 min read 1,429 words

Kaifeng Prefecture, prison.

The thick smoke appeared extremely ethereal in the sunlight.

Biting a cigarette, Zhan Zhao's head was constantly sweating.

The ancients often said, betel nut plus cigarette, magic power is boundless.

But Zhang Cheng said, Zhan Zhao is on a high!

"My Juque sword, no, I don't believe it, I can't win!"

Patting the silver, Zhan Zhao's eyes were blood-red as he held the cigarette, "Leopard!"

"Zhan Zhan Zhan Huwei, a Juque sword, is it worth it!"

Looking at Zhan Zhao who had already gone into a demon, Zhang Cheng couldn't help but twitch his corners of his mouth.

Originally, he was chewing betel nut and smoking in the prison, but unexpectedly, a yamen runner came up and asked him for a cigarette.

Upholding the principle that fellow countrymen are family, Zhang Cheng shared it.

But unexpectedly, the high yamen runners started learning to smoke, and then gradually became like this.

"That's the Juque sword!"

Looking at Zhang Cheng with hatred, Zhan Zhao couldn't help but shout angrily.

"Eh, give it back, give it back!"

Looking at Zhan Zhao with disdain, Zhang Cheng couldn't help but be speechless.

Because even if the Juque sword is powerful, can it cut through the rebar he "exchanged"?

Juque sword: You are truly good at picking!

Rebar: If I break, the consequences, hehehe...

"Take it, betting with me, it's not about what you want, but what I have?"

Patting the table domineeringly, Zhan Zhao roared like a "God of Gamblers" at this moment.

However, looking at Zhan Zhao, Zhang Cheng was stunned on the spot; good fellow, he really isn't afraid of losing!

Half an hour later, Zhan Zhao sat dejectedly, holding his head, full of hesitation on the ground.

Because he not only lost the Juque sword, but also lost his salary for the next three months.

"Zhao, let me tell you, gambling is like this, be strong!"

Patting Zhan Zhao's shoulder, Zhang Cheng turned around and lit a cigarette, "Continue, tonight's betel nut and cigarettes, I, Young Master Zhang, will pay!"

"Young Master Zhang is generous!"

Hearing Zhang Cheng's words, the yamen runners cheered one after another.

The next morning, Zhan Zhao left the prison.

Watching the dazzling sunlight, Zhan Zhao suddenly felt one thing, that is, he was still alive.

Inside the yamen.

Looking at Zhan Zhao chewing betel nut and holding a cigarette in his hand, Gongsun Ce couldn't help but step forward and say, "Zhan Zhan Zhan Huwei, what is this look?"

Watching the disheveled Zhan Zhao, Gongsun Ce then asked in confusion, "Where is your Juque sword?"

Looking at Zhan Zhao, Gongsun Ce was surprised.

Because in the past, Zhan Zhao was inseparable from the Juque sword!

"Mr. Gongsun, Juque sword... I lost it!"

Hearing Gongsun Ce mention the Juque sword, Zhan Zhao immediately collapsed.

"What? Lost it?"

Looking at Zhan Zhao in shock, a look of surprise appeared on Gongsun Ce's face.

Because the Juque sword, is it something that can be lost? Zhan Zhao couldn't have gone into a high from gambling, right?

But just a few minutes later, Gongsun Ce was eating betel nut, holding a cigarette in his hand and said, "Take me there, I don't believe it, this Juque sword can't be won back!"

"Stay calm, Mr. Gongsun!"

Pulling Gongsun Ce, Zhan Zhao suddenly discovered that he was just like himself yesterday.

"Don't stop me, I want to see who dares to win against someone from my Kaifeng Prefecture!"

Speaking domineeringly, Gongsun Ce's face was already completely red.

Inside the Kaifeng Prefecture prison.

Zhang Cheng was carefully examining the Juque sword and said, "Is this the Juque sword? It looks so beautiful!"

"Pfft!"

Spraying a mouthful of cola, Bai Yutang couldn't believe it and said, "What did you say this is? Juque sword, Zhan Zhao's Juque sword?"

"Right, doesn't it say so on it? You read little?"

Looking at Bai Yutang curiously, Zhang Cheng asked.

"You're the one who reads little! Let me see!"

Reaching out and snatching the Juque sword from Zhang Cheng's hand, Bai Yutang couldn't help but exclaim, "This really is the Juque sword, how did you get it from Zhan Zhao!"

Looking at Zhang Cheng, Bai Yutang didn't want to tell the truth, but with his cowardly look, he really couldn't beat Zhan Zhao!

"Hey, what are you thinking? I won this!"

Looking at Bai Yutang with disdain, Zhang Cheng explained.

"Won it? Could it be that you played gambling with that group of government runners yesterday and won against Zhan Zhao by the way?"

Looking at Zhang Cheng in surprise, Bai Yutang looked at the Juque sword in her hand.

"What do you think? In this Great Song, there is no one who can win against me in gambling!"

Speaking with a domineering look, Zhang Cheng couldn't help but look up.

Because in terms of gambling skills, even if the God of Gamblers came, he would have to leave his hair behind before leaving!

"You don't know how to use sword techniques either, why not sell the Juque sword to me?"

Looking at Zhang Cheng happily, Bai Yutang couldn't help but ask.

"Dream on, this is the Juque sword, not for sale!"

Taking back the Juque sword, Zhang Cheng held it in his arms.

"Oh my, don't be so stingy..."

Leaning close to Zhang Cheng, Bai Yutang couldn't help but act coquettishly, appearing very charming.

And looking at Bai Yutang, Zhang Cheng raised his hand and pressed it on her face, saying, "For a Juque sword, you actually go against men, truly moral corruption!"

"You!"

Hearing Zhang Cheng's words, Bai Yutang couldn't help but become angry.

But just at this moment, two figures appeared outside the cell door.

Raising his head, Zhang Cheng looked at Zhan Zhao and Gongsun Ce, and was immediately stunned on the spot.

"Come out, today, this master wants to decide life and death with you!"

Looking at Zhang Cheng seriously, Gongsun Ce couldn't help but bite his cigarette and spray mist from his nostrils.

Watching Gongsun Ce like an old ox, Zhang Cheng was stunned and said, "No, are the people of Kaifeng Prefecture all so stupid, bah, all so reckless?"

Inside the Kaifeng Prefecture prison.

After the table was set, the yamen runners gathered around one after another.

Playing with copper coins in his hand, Gongsun Ce said seriously, "Please!"

Looking at Gongsun Ce before him, Zhang Cheng smiled and said, "Since that's the case, then I won't be polite!"

Scattering the copper coins in the bowl, Zhang Cheng turned his hands quickly and then said directly, "Come!"

"The bowl in the middle!"

Pointing to the middle, Gongsun Ce immediately gave the answer.

But just at this moment, Zhang Cheng smiled and said, "None!"

"What? None, this is impossible, I clearly saw it!"

Speaking in surprise, Gongsun Ce turned his head and said, "Zhan Zhan Zhan Huwei, you?"

"None!"

Shaking his head, Zhan Zhao seemed to be saying that Zhang Cheng didn't cheat.

"This is impossible!"

Pinching his beard, Gongsun Ce was stunned at this moment.

Half an hour later.

Zhan Zhao and Gongsun Ce, who were squatting in front of Kaifeng Prefecture, were checking the accounts.

Because the two calculated for a long time, but couldn't figure out how the copper coins, which were clearly in the bowl, disappeared for no reason!

However, just when Zhang Cheng was killing everyone, Situ Yaozu also met his noble person, that is, Zhang Erhe!

Inside the mansion of the Censor-in-Chief and Junior Minister of the Court of Imperial Sacrifices.

Zhang Erhe stretched out both hands and said, "Guess!"

"This one!"

Pointing to one hand, Situ Yaozu became serious, because he had already lost once.

"None, you now owe the lord another one hundred thousand taels!"

Looking at Situ Yaozu with a smile, Zhang Erhe explained.

"No, you don't have anything in either hand!"

Looking at Zhang Erhe in shock, Situ Yaozu was surprised.

"I didn't tell you there was anything either, see? This is life, helpless, right!"

Watching Situ Yaozu, Zhang Erhe smiled and said, "As long as you recognize me as your foster father, you can marry the princess, you know, the princess... and I am the Censor-in-Chief and Junior Minister of the Court of Imperial Sacrifices, Zhang Erhe!"

"Father Zhang Erhe?"

Looking at Zhang Erhe, Situ Yaozu immediately thought of Zhang Dingding, whom he met today.

"Oh, you child is too smart!"

Looking at Situ Yaozu excitedly, Zhang Erhe couldn't help but get excited.

Because the scapegoat for the old Zhang family had finally been found!
