After a while, Shangguan Shu took a deep breath, his face stern, and put the letter behind him. He asked in a deep voice, "What happened in the mansion?"
Bao Yan has already disregarded life and death.
Destroy it, I’m tired!
"Master, I don't know where to begin..."
"How about I give you thirty lashes to teach you a lesson?"
"No need! I remember it!"
Bao Yan recounted everything that had happened today, from discovering that the eldest and young ladies had entered the gambling house to the moment when the eldest lady had lost the young lady...
The eldest lady and the second young master lost themselves again...
The second young master brought the eldest young master and the old duke. The old duke first defeated the two of them, then brought the second young master back, and finally lost both the second young master and himself.
Upon hearing this, Shangguan Shu's eyes were filled with disbelief.
He was out for just an afternoon, and the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion was raided?
No one was left for him?
He was surprised and asked, "What happened to the princess?"
"The princess... the princess learned that the young master of the gambling house was the Third Young Master, so she went there. Then, thinking of redeeming the people, she gambled a few times, but ended up gambling more and more. Finally, the princess ran out of money, so she asked the Third Young Master if she could write an IOU. He actually agreed, and then..."
As Bao Yan spoke, he silently looked at the letter in Shangguan Shu's hand.
Shangguan Shu closed his eyes and tightened his jaw.
"Runlang, hurry up and bring the silver to rescue your wife, or something bad will happen if you delay."
After a while, Shangguan Shu seemed to accept this fact and asked expressionlessly, "How much does the princess owe?"
Bao Yan lowered his head.
Shangguan Shu felt something was wrong.
"How many?"
"three……"
Shangguan Shu: Fortunately...
Then, "One million taels..."
"Young Master Duo?"
Bao Yan gritted his teeth and repeated it again.
Shangguan Shu laughed muffledly.
So angry.
His father, his brother, his child, his wife, none of them are worry-free! !
Three million taels?
Does he have to pawn the entire Zhenguo Mansion overnight?
Shangguan Shu took a deep breath, then turned and walked out the door.
Bao Yan chased after him, "Master, where are you going?"
Shangguan Shu sneered, "Send troops to arrest gamblers!"
…
Zhao Ying was dizzy from losing, and the old Duke asked her to get up, and he continued. At this moment, there was a commotion outside.
"The soldiers are coming! The soldiers are coming!"
Zhao Ying widened his eyes. The soldiers are coming?
Ahhh, if the soldiers captured her, and let the court and the people know, and let her father know...
Shangguan Zhu was just as panicked as she was. If he was caught gambling, having his salary docked for half a year would be the least of his worries. The most important thing was, he couldn't afford it now! He had lost all his money!
Shangguan Zhu pointed to the window, forgetting to conceal his identity for a moment, "Princess, there is a window over there. I will jump down first, and then catch you from below!"
Zhao Ying thought this plan was feasible and nodded quickly, "That's great, very good!"
However, Nanny Li felt it was too dangerous, "Your Highness, you can't do that!"
Zhao Ying couldn't hear anything else anymore. "Madame Li, go and stop the soldiers!"
Nanny Li had no choice but to say, "Then be careful, Your Highness!"
Then he rolled up his sleeves and rushed to the door.
Zhao Ying and Shangguan Zhu walked towards the window. Jiang Youhou saw that his mother was going to abandon him again, so he stood up and grabbed Zhao Ying's sleeve, demanding, "Are you going to abandon me again?"
Zhao Ying gently patted Jiang Youhou's little face and said, "Don't be afraid, Qi You. Stay with your grandfather and brothers first. Mother will come to save you!"
As he was speaking, Shangguan Zhu had disappeared. It seemed that he had jumped down. Zhao Ying hurried downstairs to look, but there was no one there.
Run away?
Shangguan Zhu ran away by himself?
Isn't her brother-in-law too unreliable?
No, no, now is not the time to think about this, she has to escape quickly.
Zhao Ying hardened his heart, gritted his teeth, closed his eyes, climbed out the window and jumped out.
Then he fell into a strong embrace.
Zhao Ying opened her eyes and looked up.
The man narrowed his eyes, raised his eyebrows slightly, and smiled, looking like he was ready to call someone to account.
Shangguan Shu?
On the opposite corner of the street, Shangguan Zhu was held by two soldiers, his mouth blocked, and he was yelling at them in a mumbling voice.
Zhao Ying smiled bitterly and tried to get close to Shangguan Shu, but Shangguan Shu let her go and said to the soldiers beside him, "Tie him up and take him away!"
After saying that, he turned and left.
Zhao Ying: ...
The two leading officers were both Shangguan Shu's confidants, so they certainly knew Zhao Ying. When they took out the rope to tie Zhao Ying's hands, they looked terrified and embarrassed, "Your Highness, please don't worry. Let's go through the formalities..."
"Go through the process..."
At the door of Dice King.
A group of people were whispering to each other.
"Why are all these officers and soldiers here?"
"The Dice King has had a bad year. Just one day after opening, they were raided by soldiers. Could it be that they offended some high-ranking official?"
"I guess some high-ranking official got so angry after losing that he brought his troops to raid this place!"
"Look, look, that kid is the young master of the Dice King, right? I know him! How pitiful! He's so young, and already a prisoner!"
"Hey, hey, hey, look, there's an even smaller one. Oh my god, that little baby is still breastfeeding, right? How could they have been taken away?"
The officers and soldiers carried one person after another and came out one after another.
Lastly, it was the Shangguan family's turn. They all lowered their heads, especially when they saw Shangguan Shu, the leader.
Jiang Youhou followed behind Shangguan Qingwan, who was holding his little fat baby. The little fat baby seemed sleepy, with its eyelids drooping.
