After hearing Wei Tingyu's answer, Song Mo nodded secretly.

As he walked out with Wei Tingyu and others, he chatted with Wei Tingyu: "What do you usually do for fun?"

Wei Tingyu said respectfully, "I usually read and write at home, and I don't have much to do for fun." He then asked Song Mo politely, "I wonder what kind of fun the Prince of Yingguo usually has?"

Zhang Yuanming broke out in a sweat after hearing this.

How can you talk like that?

Song Mo is the prince of England.

Before Song Mo could answer, he hastily added: "My brother-in-law likes riding and shooting! He often rides his horse by the moat outside Xuanwu Gate!"

Living in Kyoto is not easy. Not every house is suitable for horse racing.

"Oh!" Song Mo was interested. After a little thought, he said to Gu Yu, "Why don't we go to Huyuan River for a horse ride with Marquis Jining tomorrow!"

Gu Yu could see that Song Mo was intentionally trying to get close to Wei Tingyu, so there was absolutely no reason for him to not cooperate.

"Okay!" He laughed loudly and said to Wei Tingyu, "Then we have a deal. See you tomorrow morning at dawn!"

Wei Tingyu and Wang Qinghai were stunned. They looked at each other and saw some uneasiness in each other's eyes.

Zhang Yuanming thought that Wei Tingyu had caught Song Mo's eye, and was overjoyed when he heard this. He quickly answered for Wei Tingyu: "I will definitely go when the time comes!"

Song Mo nodded slightly, his expression dignified and calm, making people feel as if they were in the presence of a precious gem.

Wei Tingyu and Wang Qinghai couldn't help but frown.

Wang Qinghai simply pulled Zhang Yuanming's sleeve.

Zhang Yuanming was just not liked by his mother, Mrs. Yuan, since he was a child. He looked honest and simple, and it was never his turn to speak about any big or small matters at home. This gave people the impression that he was stupid and dull, but in fact he was not stupid.

He quietly slowed down his pace and gradually distanced himself from Song Mo and Gu Yu.

Wang Qinghai immediately came over and said, "Brother-in-law, how can we compare with the British prince and the little bully in Kyoto... I'm afraid we will be embarrassed by then!"

Since it's a horse ride, you have to run a lap.

Wei Tingyu's mount was a very ordinary Shandong red horse. His mount was a gift from his father, Marquis Yan'an, four years ago. It was already old...

Zhang Yuanming understood immediately after hearing this. He thought for a moment and whispered, "Don't worry about this. After sending the Prince of England away, we will discuss it in detail later. It is a rare opportunity to make friends with the Prince of England!"

Wang Qinghai didn't understand and nodded hurriedly.

Who knew that Song Mo and Gu Yu would escort them all the way to the gate. They had no choice but to get in the car and drive around the Duke Jing's Mansion, and then return to the Duke Jing's Mansion.

The relationship between the Zhang brothers is very complicated. Zhang Yuanming does not want others to know about this, so he waits for Wei Tingyu and Wang Qinghai in the study room of his inner house.

"I have asked someone to find two top-quality Mongolian horses for you from my stable. You can take the horses away now." He whispered to the two men, "Go to the moat this afternoon to test the horses. If there is anything wrong, send someone to tell me immediately. You must leave a good impression on the Prince of England and Gu Yu." Then he instructed the two men again, "Remember, you are the guests tomorrow. Don't try to compete with the Prince of England and Gu Yu. Just accompany them happily. Do you understand?"

The Mongolian horse is one of the best war horses. With such a mount, Wei Tingyu is full of confidence in tomorrow's horse riding.

"Don't worry, brother-in-law." He smiled, "They are two little kids of noble status. We will never bother with them."

"If you want to compete with them, you have to have the ability!" Wang Qinghai said with a bit of laughter, "You may not know yet? The prince of the Duke of Ying can at least pull a three-stone bow. His mount is called 'Fei Du', a Wusun horse, which is said to be able to travel a thousand miles a day. It was given to him by the Duke of Dingguo on his tenth birthday. The Song family also has several Rouge horses and Yanqi horses, the most famous of which are Hongyu, Fuyun, Chidian, Juechen and Pingshan. The Juequn in our family was bred from a Rouge horse of the Song family, and was bred from the same mare as the Song family's Hongyu."

He didn't know anything else, but he had seen the Wang family's Juequn with his own eyes. Not only was he tall and strong, but he also ran very fast, which made him envious. He once secretly made a wish in his heart that one day he would find a way to get a good horse like Juequn.

Wei Tingyu laughed dryly.

Zhang Yuanming took the opportunity to say, "There are always mountains beyond mountains and heavens beyond heavens. You should be more careful in everything you do in the future."

His brother-in-law treats him very well.

Wei Tingyu hurriedly replied "Yes".

Zhang Yuanming gave the two of them a few more instructions before sending them out the door.

Song Mo was playing Pai Gow with Zhou Jianping, the youngest son of Dongping Earl Zhou Shaochuan, Feng Zhi, the eldest grandson of Yongen Earl Feng Jianan, and Dong Qi, the eldest son of Guangen Earl.

There was already a pile of small change and banknotes on the table, at least two thousand taels.

Gu Yu, Zhang Xuming and a group of other noble sons gathered around the gambling table to watch, but they were so silent that you could hear a pin drop.

Zhou Jianping is in his twenties, with regular features except for his eyes which roll around, making him seem cunning and unreliable.

He touched the cards in his hand, glanced at Song Mo, who was sitting on the armchair with a leisurely look, casually glanced at the cards in his hand and then put them on the table, then glanced at Feng Zhi, who had a sullen face, and Dong Qi, who had a solemn expression, and touched the cards in his hand again, threw away the four cards in his hand, and said loudly: "I won't follow!"

Two cards that make up the hand, one with six points and one with five points, can make a deck of double geese and a deck of tiger heads.

The Twin Goose is ranked fifth, just after the Supreme Treasure and Twin Heavens.

Everyone was looking at the cards in amazement.

Feng Zhi's face became even uglier, and it seemed as if fire could spit out of his eyes: "You don't even want to follow the fucking two geese, are you a wimp?"

Zhou Jianping sneered: "Song Da has already opened three supreme swords in a row, and I haven't seen Ding San yet. If you have the ability, you can follow. I can't afford it."

"I won't take it either!" As soon as he finished speaking, Dong Qi threw his four cards on the table.

A natural card, a mixed five, a club, and a red head can make a pair of sevens and a pair of ten.

Still haven't seen Sansan.

Everyone held their breath.

Feng Zhi's face turned blue and then white, and then white and then blue again. After a while, he threw the cards on the table fiercely: "I won't follow either."

He has two plum cards, a land card, and a mixed nine, which can make a pair of plums and a pair of land kings.

The double plums rank sixth in size.

Zhou Jianping snorted softly.

Feng Zhiping was furious. Just as he was about to say something, Song Mo suddenly stood up and said with a smile, "The banquet should have started in the front. Let's stop here today!" Then he pointed to the silver coins and banknotes on the table and said, "It's a rare opportunity to get together with you all. If I leave like this, I'm afraid you will get me drunk. I'll give you the silver back. Don't use this as an excuse to get me drunk later."

Everyone was surprised and cheered, and came forward to get their money back.

Zhang Xuming smiled and left the house with Song Mo and Gu Yu.

Feng Ye looked at Song Mo's back with a changing expression.

Dong Qi, who was also looking at Song Mo's back, seemed to be thinking about something.

Just now, a member of the side branch of the Marquis of Changxing, whose father worked in Shanglinyuan, somehow saw Gu Yu and shouted, "Gu Yu is here, call him in to gamble!"

Everyone knew that Gu Yu had his biological mother's dowry in his name, and an annual income of 20,000 to 30,000 taels of silver.

Several people who were familiar with Gu Yu started laughing and took the initiative to pull Gu Yu over, but they didn't expect that the Prince of England, Song Mo, also followed.

Everyone and Song Mo were just nodding acquaintances, but Song Mo had always been someone they envied - there were only two brothers in his family, and he had been made the crown prince since he was young, so he had no trouble with Xiao Qiang; his family was wealthy, he had private property under his name, and he had endless money; he was always so elegant and noble, and he had something in his belly...

He heard Feng Zhi and Zhou Jianping whispering, "Another rich guy has come!"

Zhou Jianping was still a little hesitant.

Feng Zhi said: "What are you afraid of? There is no such family as Duke Dingguo anymore!"

Zhou Jianping thought for a moment and whispered, "Fuck it!"

Then he urged him, "Think about it, your private boat was seized by Duke Dingguo. Do you want to make some money back?"

Of course he won't be fooled.

But when he saw Song Mo's hand resting so naturally on the red armchair with gold all over, the moist white and the orangutan red, a beauty that was dazzling to the extreme, he actually responded with a "OK" as if possessed by a ghost.

I didn’t expect Song Mo would gamble!

In just half an hour, everyone's faces turned pale with defeat.

He was sure that Song Mo was cheating, but he couldn't find any clues no matter how hard he tried.

"Damn it!" Dong Qi heard Feng Zhi's shouting, "It's actually against Zawu and Digaojiu."

Dong Qi couldn't help but look over.

Feng Zhi threw four cards in the middle of the table. The seven red dots on the moon-white ivory cards seemed to be mocking their cowardice.

"What's so great about that!" Feng Zhi said bitterly, "Be careful or the emperor will destroy their family as well!"

There were still a few people staying in the mountain house. After hearing these words, they scattered like birds and beasts.

Dong Qi looked at the few remaining banknotes on the table, slowly took them and put them in his arms, and said slowly: "I am afraid that the emperor still has feelings for the Jiang family in his heart, otherwise, why would he leave behind the Jiang family's sacrificial fields, ancestral home and several male children under the age of five..."

Feng Zhi was stunned.

Dong Qi has already left the mountain house.

He saw Song Mo and Gu Yu saying goodbye to Zhang Xuming.

Zhang Xuming tried hard to persuade them to stay, but seeing that they were determined to leave, he personally saw them off.

"Brother Tianci," Gu Yu said indignantly, "that Zhou Jianping and Feng Zhi..."

Song Mo raised his hand, made a gesture to stop him from talking, and said lightly: "He is just a little idiot, not a big deal." But he knew in his heart that when something happened to the Jiang family, someone wanted to use him to gain attention.

Although Gu Yu swallowed his breath, he could not hide his anger.

※※※※※

The next day, Song Mo and others met by the moat outside Xuanwu Gate.

Wei Tingyu and Wang Qinghai rode the Mongolian horses given by Zhang Yuanming, while Song Mo and Gu Yu rode two ordinary Mongolian horses.

They were a little surprised.

Song Mo did not explain. He sat on the horse's back and let the horse graze freely on the embankment while chatting with Wei Tingyu about how many people were in the family, what their personalities were, when they were enlightened, who was their first husband...

The moat in the early morning has fresh air and lush greenery.

Wei Tingyu and Song Mo got along better and better as they talked, and in the end Wei Tingyu even told Song Mo when she stopped breastfeeding.

How can there be such stupid people in the world!

Gu Yu rolled his eyes and followed Song Mo and Wei Tingyu with Wang Qinghai like two shadows.

It was not until the sun rose that Song Mo said goodbye to Wei Tingyu and made an appointment to meet again in three days.

After returning home, Chen He whispered to Song Mo, "Mr. Chen seems to be investigating something. He asked the servant to collect all the official records of the past twenty years for him. He said he wanted to take a look."

Now that he has entered the mansion, what can he hide from me?

What is his purpose in doing this?

I wonder if this matter has anything to do with Dou Zhao?

Or does he just want to take a look?

Song Mo pondered and said, "Don't make a fuss yet. Let those two servants serve Mr. Chen well."

Chen He agreed and retreated.

Song Mo stood in front of the window, looking at the colorful flowers outside, and remained silent for a long time.
