Chapter 922: Tang Bohu

~8 min read 1,401 words

In the bustling capital, the crowd was crowded.

Walking between the roads, Zhang Cheng looked leisurely at the surroundings: "From Jiangnan to here, do you know how long it takes to walk?"

"Two months?"

Looking at Zhang Cheng suspiciously, Tang Bohu couldn't help but inquire.

"Wrong, it's twenty years!"

Turning his head to look at Tang Bohu, Zhang Cheng said seriously: "The Ming Taizu Hongwu Emperor walked from Jiangnan to here, taking twenty years to recover the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun!"

"You joined the Eastern Depot, and your way of speaking is different now!"

Looking at Zhang Cheng in shock, Tang Bohu had a full face of astonishment.

And hearing Tang Bohu say this, Zhang Cheng laughed: "That's natural. After all, in the lower position, I am now the Eastern Depot's Palm-Punishment Thousand-Household!"

Revealing a proud look, Zhang Cheng couldn't help but pat Tang Bohu's shoulder: "Understand now? I am an official, different from you, a commoner!"

Looking at Zhang Cheng with a twitching mouth, Tang Bohu couldn't help but say: "If you climb two more steps, you'll enter the palace!"

Looking at Tang Bohu in shock, Zhang Cheng was also a bit afraid: "It wouldn't go that far, would it?"

"What do you think? Thousand-Household Lord!"

Looking at Zhang Cheng with a smile, Tang Bohu laughed: "Cao Superintendent likes you so much, it's not impossible for him to let you enter the palace to accompany the Emperor!"

Looking at Tang Bohu beside him, Zhang Cheng couldn't help but say: "Even if I enter the palace, I will let you practice the Evil-Warding Sword Manual in advance!"

"So vicious?"

Looking at Zhang Cheng in astonishment, Tang Bohu couldn't help but widen his eyes.

"Yeah, it's just this vicious!"

Looking at Tang Bohu with disgust, Zhang Cheng stopped in front of a casino.

Looking at Zhang Cheng suspiciously, Tang Bohu was stunned: "What are you doing here? Aren't you the one who hates gambling the most?"

"An unknown bet is called gambling, but knowing the result in advance is called investment!"

Looking at Tang Bohu with a full face of smiles, Zhang Cheng walked into the noisy casino.

Looking at Zhang Cheng confusedly, Tang Bohu didn't know why he came here, but still followed him in.

After all, he came to the capital to participate in the imperial examination.

A few minutes later, when Tang Bohu reappeared at the casino entrance, he was stunned: "Didn't you say you could know the result in advance?"

"Yeah, I knew the result, but I didn't expect you to come!"

Looking at Tang Bohu beside him, Zhang Cheng then changed the subject: "It's all because of you, you jinx! Lost the bet, and it's all your fault! Told you not to get carried away, not to get carried away, but you wouldn't listen. Now it's great, two months of salary are gone!"

Looking at Zhang Cheng in shock, Tang Bohu couldn't help but widen his eyes: "Boss, I also lost a lot!"

However, just as the two argued for a long time without getting a result, Tang Bohu said: "Then what should we do next?"

"Squat on the side of the street, maybe we can win back a bit!"

Explaining to Tang Bohu, Zhang Cheng couldn't help but feel helpless.

Originally, he wanted to try it out. After all, no child cries every day, and no gambler loses every day.

Now it's great, gamblers don't die well.

Watching Zhang Cheng squat skillfully on the street, Tang Bohu said in surprise: "Have you done this before?"

"Heh, before I entered the Hua Mansion, I was the most powerful beggar in Seven Heroes Town!"

Explaining to Tang Bohu, Zhang Cheng couldn't help but explain.

And hearing Zhang Cheng's words, Tang Bohu couldn't help but give a thumbs up: "Awesome!"

"Stop talking nonsense, keep an eye on the person in the white shirt in front; that's our target!"

Pointing at the person not far away, Zhang Cheng explained.

"Hmm?"

Looking at Zhang Cheng suspiciously, Tang Bohu was shocked: "Are you performing official duties?"

"Otherwise, what do you think? The Eastern Depot's Palm-Punishment Thousand-Household accompanying you to stroll? You can think of that!"

Looking at Tang Bohu with disgust, Zhang Cheng couldn't help but complain.

However, just as he was saying this, Tang Bohu said: "Thousand-Household Lord, that target is walking toward us!"

"Shut up, call me Hua Ning! Be careful of being exposed!"

Warning Tang Bohu seriously, Zhang Cheng couldn't help but complain.

Not long after, the young master wearing a white shirt came to Zhang Cheng and Tang Bohu: "Looks quite good, why are you begging here?"

"Young... Young Master, let's go!"

Coming to the side of the "Young Master," the "little servant" beside her hurriedly pulled her arm.

"Oh my, I came out to apprentice, can you stop bothering me!"

Leaning down, the "Young Master" said: "Two, can you tell me, are you begging here?"

"That's right!" Zhang Cheng,

"No!" Tang Bohu,

"Hmm?"

Looking at each other, Zhang Cheng and Tang Bohu looked at each other.

But in the next second, the Young Master suddenly realized: "Oh, then I know!"

Watching the Young Master leave happily waving her fan, Tang Bohu looked at Zhang Cheng and said: "Whose daughter is that? Needs you, a Palm-Punishment Thousand-Household, to follow?"

"Daughter? She is Princess Yunluo! The Emperor's sister, what do you think?"

Looking at Tang Bohu with disgust, Zhang Cheng couldn't help but complain.

And hearing Zhang Cheng's words, Tang Bohu suddenly realized: "So that's it!"

But in the next second, he saw Princess Yunluo had already arrived in front of the casino.

But just as Tang Bohu was confused, a person wearing a brown long shirt appeared, speaking like a street hooligan: "You're here, did you bring the money?"

"Senior Brother, why is it you! Where is Master?"

Looking at Cheng Shifei with curiosity, Princess Yunluo inquired immediately.

"Oh my, Master is very busy every day, I'll teach you! Where is the silver? Did you bring it!"

Looking at Princess Yunluo, the gambler Cheng Shifei went online.

"Hey, your target is about to be deceived!"

Speaking to Zhang Cheng beside him, Tang Bohu couldn't help but smile.

"Don't worry, my mission is to protect Princess Yunluo's safety!"

Squatting on the ground, Zhang Cheng said with a full face of smiles.

But just as he finished speaking, a copper coin was thrown to the ground.

Raising his head, Zhang Cheng looked at the other party, intending to say thank you, but saw Shangguan Haitang staring at him dumbfoundedly.

"Why, you two know each other?"

Looking at Zhang Cheng's confusion and Shangguan Haitang's shock, Tang Bohu couldn't help but be surprised.

"Not only know, but are especially familiar! Right? Villa Master Shangguan!"

Picking up the copper coin on the ground, Zhang Cheng looked at Shangguan Haitang and reached his hand into his long robe.

"What are you doing? I warn you, this is the capital!"

Looking at Zhang Cheng in fear, Shangguan Haitang didn't expect that she would meet an old acquaintance just by throwing a copper coin to a beggar on the side of the road.

After witnessing Zhang Cheng make a move, Shangguan Haitang understood one thing, and that was that this person not only had extremely high martial arts but also very ruthless methods.

After all, what martial arts master carries lime powder in his bosom!

But Zhang Cheng did just that, even more outrageous than the "Sky-Filling Money Scattering Flower Rain" her master taught!

"What about the capital? I am also an official!"

Pulling up his long robe, Zhang Cheng hooked Shangguan Haitang's shoulder and said: "We're so familiar, lend me some silver!"

Looking at Zhang Cheng, Shangguan Haitang was stunned in place, originally thinking he was going to dig her heart out, but unexpectedly, he was actually borrowing silver!

Watching Shangguan Haitang take out all her silver notes, Tang Bohu was shocked: "You saved her life, and she gave you all her family assets!"

Watching Shangguan Haitang escape in a flash, Tang Bohu was dumbfounded.

"No, it's just that I almost killed her last time!"

Looking at Tang Bohu with a full face of smiles, Zhang Cheng put the silver into his bosom and said: "After the official business is over, let's go to a brothel!"

"Good idea, Brother Zhang!"

Giving a thumbs up, Tang Bohu got excited.
