It’s going to happen

It’s going to happen

The news that Gu Xi took the initiative to break off the engagement and that the breakup was successful swept through the capital like a gust of wind.

Outside Sifang Casino, countless people cheered and jumped.

"Hahaha, the bet is won, the bet is won!"

"Oh! I just deposited ten taels of silver. If I had known earlier, I would have borrowed it from someone else. I would have deposited at least one hundred taels!"

"Thank you Miss Gu, praise her!"

These are ordinary people who join in the fun and come to place bets.

However, although many people are happy, there are also people who are worried.

"The casino has to pay so much money, will they really pay it? Can they afford it?"

"He dares not to pay compensation! There is King Ruyang, King An, Qibao Pavilion, and Yaowang Valley. If they don't come up with money, they won't be able to escape even from the ends of the earth!"

"The owner of this gambling house is a big imperial businessman. If he sells out all his money, he will definitely get two million taels of silver!"



If there is a sea of ​​cheers outside the casino, then there is a cemetery of despair inside the casino.

In fact, for casino employees such as Chen Sheng, the best they can do is to be sold to others as slaves, but for Xu Junfa, it is really a loss!

"It's over, it's over, it's all over... Wuwuwu..." The middle-aged man in his forties cried even more miserably than the child.

When he learned the news, Xu Junfa was dumbfounded. He was confused for a long time and couldn't react. Then he rushed to the eldest prince's mansion and asked to see the eldest prince.

However, he never saw the eldest prince's face. He was driven away by the guards and told that he was prepared to pay for it, but the eldest prince would not pay him a single penny.

Xu Junfa tried to find a way to meet his daughter, who was the eldest prince's concubine.

However, he didn't get to see his daughter either, but got a message that shocked him to the core.

If he doesn't pay as required, the eldest prince will kill their entire family!

Xu Junfa left as if lost and went to find his real master Qi Yue.

Although Qi Yue saw him, at this point, he had no other choice but to pay for it.

"Sell everything you can on hand, collect enough money, and make compensation first." Qi Yue said to Xu Jun with a stern face,

"I have seen your achievements over the years. Afterwards, I will arrange for you and your family to settle in Beiyan, give you an identity, and let you start over."

"Thank you, Master." Xu Junfa said with a sad face.

This is his last resort.

At this time, a carrier pigeon flew in. Qi Yue waved his hand and asked Xu Junfa to leave. He took the message from the carrier pigeon and read it with a sullen face.

This was the news from his men that Gu Xi had gone to see the eldest prince and the two should join forces.

But what the two people said specifically could not be found out.

After Qi Yue saw the news, he was shocked and angry, and then smiled evilly.

What a good Gu Xi!

He thought he had overestimated her, but he still underestimated her.

Apart from Prince Ning's incident, this gambling den to cancel the engagement was the biggest failure he had ever encountered in his life!!

But it doesn't matter, he will get back this loss from Gu Xi!

-

The Fourth Prince's Mansion.

"Your Highness, I am very happy to congratulate you. The eldest prince lost here and will have to pay a huge amount of money. The Sifang Gambling House will no longer exist!"

Mr. Xin smiled and flattered him, but he was secretly glad in his heart. Fortunately, the eldest prince lost and they hadn't thought of a solution yet.

The fourth prince was also in a happy mood, "This Gu Xi is indeed a lucky one."

"Your Highness is still discerning." Mr. Xin immediately sent a rainbow fart and said hurriedly,

"Now that Gu Xi has broken off the engagement, should we send a message to Marquis Zhongyi and let him know about His Highness's desire to accept Gu Xi?"

"Don't worry yet. We are His Highness's people and we can't run away."

The fourth prince smiled and shook his head, dropped the white stones on the chessboard, and immediately formed a killing move to surround the black stones.

"Your Highness Shengming." Mr. Xin said with a smile.

-

Yunwu Villa.

Deacon Xiao came here after depositing the five hundred thousand taels and handling other tasks at hand.

"Mr. Zhang, how is the young master's health?" Deacon Xiao asked the old man respectfully.

"The young master has woken up, and his body's vitality has recovered very quickly. He can get out of bed and walk around in less than two days," Mr. Zhang said.

"Since the young master is fine, why does Mr. Zhang still look so serious?" Deacon Xiao asked.

"I have something that I can't figure out. What kind of pills did Miss Gu give the young master to bring him back to life?" Mr. Zhang shook his head.

"Before, I dared to say that all the magic medicines in the world come from my Medicine King Valley, but after this incident, I can only say that there is a world outside the world, and there is a world outside the world.

"Why don't you ask Miss Gu?" said Deacon Xiao.

Mr. Zhang shook his head, "She is the benefactor of my Medicine King Valley, how can I ask about her magic medicine for no reason?"

"I heard that Miss Gu saved the young master and that she was going to break off the engagement today, so..." Deacon Xiao told Mr. Zhang about the bet of five hundred thousand taels.

"I guess I lost this money, but it will let people know that Miss Gu is standing behind me, Yaowang Valley. She should not be bullied at will."

When Butler Xiao said this, he came up with the answer after analyzing the situation. He felt that it would not be a bad thing to keep the marriage instead of confronting the eldest prince.

Mr. Zhang nodded, not caring about losing five hundred thousand taels of silver.

However, after a while, Deacon Xiao's subordinates came to report that Miss Gu had successfully broken off the engagement and that the gambling house would pay back the money.

Deacon Xiao was surprised for a moment.

Is this Miss Gu so tough?

He actually managed to defeat the mad dog-like eldest prince!

It seems that he has a higher opinion of this benefactor.

-

At a small gathering of Princess Rubao’s girlfriends.

"Hahaha... I believe Gu Xi is right. This time, the princess has made 20,000 taels! I'm rich, I'm rich."

Princess Rubao said happily.

"Oh, what a pity. I only invested a thousand taels of silver. If I had known better, I would have borrowed some from my mother."

"Hey, I invested five thousand taels, and I'm very satisfied. I'll thank Gu Xi very much later."

"I also want to treat her to dinner. My mother took all the rouge and gouache I brought back. I want to buy some from her."

The little sisters of Princess Rubao gathered together and chatted about the profits this time with smiles on their faces, and their words were full of appreciation and gratitude to Gu Xi.

They were very happy. Princess Yaoguang, who had been paying attention to the issue of breaking off the engagement, tore five or six handkerchiefs into pieces and broke several sets of tea cups.

"Ah! This Gu Xi is so hateful! Why should she be! Why should she be! Isn't she just a farmer's girl!"

"Princess, are you still in charge of Rouge Pavilion?" the personal maid asked cautiously.

"No matter what, you're a loser. He can't even do such a simple frame-up, and he even involves himself in it!"

Princess Yaoguang's handsome face twisted and she said to the palace maid,

"Go and warn the shopkeeper of Rouge Pavilion that if they reveal this princess, their whole family will be killed."

"Yes!" The palace maid was shocked.
