Chapter 56: Jiang Zheng: The Great Wilderness Gambler, is your kid also worthy?
Zhao Hao could only pinch his nose and admit defeat. After all, the person in front of him was an old Yinbi who had lived for more than seventy years. His two lifetimes combined were not as long as his life.
Seeing his deflated look, Jiang Zheng couldn't help laughing and patted his shoulder: "Let's go, your parents and your grandfather are waiting impatiently!"
"Why!"
Zhao Hao could only respond, and then followed Jiang Zheng to the side hall of Qianqing Palace.
When everyone saw Jiang Zheng coming, they immediately prepared to kneel down and worship.
Jiang Zheng quickly stepped forward to support Zhao Dingbian and laughed: "This is a family banquet. There are only in-laws, no monarchs or ministers. After all, you are one generation older than me. If you kneel down, won't I lose my life?" "
When the black-faced man heard this, he simply stopped kneeling and asked with a smile: "Then from now on, should I be called Huang's second father or Huang's second brother?"
Jiang Zheng's old face immediately fell down, he pointed at the black-faced man's nose and cursed: "Of the tens of thousands of people in the desert country, you two, father and son, are the most unruly!"
The black-faced man subconsciously took half a step back, worried that Jiang Zheng would give him a beating. After all, he was beaten like this when he was a child.
However, Zhao Hao answered from the side: "Grandpa, did you hear that? My father-in-law is talking about you!"
Zhao Dingbian: "???"
He waited for a while before he restrained himself from kicking the little brat to death. He reprimanded with a dark face: "If you don't know how to speak, don't speak. Otherwise, your wife will be scared away by you later!"
Jiang Zheng also rubbed his head. Although he knew that both father and son were like bears, he could only force himself to accept it.
After all, these two people were the ones he had seen growing up. One had indulged for seventeen years, and the other had indulged for more than forty years. It was obvious that they couldn't be corrected, so they couldn't be cut off, right?
"Sit, sit, sit!"
After everyone sat down, Jiang Zheng said: "Old Zhao, in the afternoon, I will send someone to deliver a batch of money to your house. Remember to collect it!"
Zhao Dingbian shook his head with a straight face and said: "In this marriage, the man should give the woman a betrothal gift. This is outrageous!"
Jiang Zheng glanced sideways at Zhao Hao: "This is not a betrothal gift or dowry. It just happened to be a batch of ill-gotten wealth. It's not appropriate for me to take it all by myself!"
Zhao Dingbian immediately understood what it meant and gave Zhao Hao a hard look.
However, the black-faced man didn't understand why, and still smiled stupidly: "It's the second emperor who treats us well. He made a fortune and still cares about our old Zhao family."
Zhao Hao looked at the silly smile on his face and couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth.
How about that smile?
Your five thousand gold private money is gone.
When he thought of his thinning wallet, he felt uncomfortable and lowered his voice and said, "Grandpa, leave me some pocket money?"
Zhao Dingbian snorted: "Don't you have the ability? If you have the ability, you can win tens of thousands of gold and go home!"
Now, even the black-faced man understood where this "illegal gain" came from.
Even his son has no money, so wouldn’t he not have even a hair left of his five thousand gold?
His face suddenly lost all color and became black and white.
After all, in the past few days, he has secretly gone out to spend money and made a lot of credit.
Who would have thought that Zhao Ritian, who claims to never break a contract, would one day overturn?
He swallowed: "Did Haoer get this ill-gotten wealth from gambling?"
Zhao Hao corrected him: "Don't slander anyone. I make money by teaching people how to gamble. It's not gambling at all. Strictly speaking, it belongs to the education industry."
Zhao Dingbian sneered: "Return to the education industry? These are all leftovers from your emperor's grandfather's activities back then!"
"Um?"
Zhao Hao was stunned for a moment.
Jiang Zheng stroked his beard quite proudly: "Old Zhao! Tell him about our heroic deeds at that time!"
For a time, Zhao Dingbian seemed to be many years younger, and the glorious years in the past appeared before his eyes one by one.
"Back then, we had just driven out the foreigners and the treasury was extremely empty. The Wei State took advantage of this opportunity to attack our border towns. In one month, they attacked thirteen cities in a row, all the way to Xilongguan."
Zhao Hao asked at the right time: "Where is Xilongguan?"
Zhao Dingbian was immediately furious and slapped him on the head: "Where is Xilongguan? Xilongguan is the gate of your Fengwu Courtyard. If the gate is opened, all your maids will be snatched away!"
Zhao Hao was immediately furious: "Wei Guo is too shameless, we must kill them!"
Zhao Dingbian glanced at him and continued: "At that time, the treasury of the Huang country was extremely empty. After the news came back, many people felt that the country was about to be destroyed. After all, even if Xilongguan could be recaptured, the country's finances would be
It can’t support the huge military expenditure. It’s just..."
Speaking of this, Zhao Dingbian, who had always been calm, couldn't help showing a look of pride: "It's just that your grandfather and I happened to break through the Grandmaster realm at that time, so the two of us discussed that while Wei Jun's foothold was not stable, as long as we could launch
It is not impossible to snatch it back by surprise.
But if there is no military spending, even if you take it, you can't hold it. It's better to start a bet. If you lose the bet, the country will be ruined and the family will be destroyed. If you win the bet, you can get at least five years of respite. So I made a plan on the border, your emperor grandfather
When the market opened in Kyoto, the bet was whether I could snatch Xilongguan back. If I could snatch it back, how many days would it take.
At that time, many dignitaries in Kyoto had packed up and prepared to run away. But before running away, they wanted to make some money. As a result, your grandfather and I defeated Xilongguan in three days, and your grandfather, the emperor, used all kinds of methods to capture the capital.
With three hundred thousand gold, the country was suddenly stabilized."
"Wucao! So awesome!"
Zhao Hao gave a thumbs up sincerely. He had heard about how poor the desert country was at that time.
The army is weak and the wealth is weak, but the Wei army has defeated thirteen cities in a row, and even the gates have been kicked open. In the end, this situation can be stabilized?
It is indeed a variable for the old man to break through to the Grandmaster realm, but it is not enough to rely on just one Grandmaster to reverse this situation. After all, there has never been a single Grandmaster in Wei State.
For these two old men to have such uncanny talents and courage, there is really nothing else to say except that they are awesome.
Of course, this was not the first time he had heard of this kind of thing.
The thumbs up were just to give the two old men more face.
Sure enough, when they heard Zhao Hao's surprise, the two old men looked at each other and laughed.
The black-faced man was also talking to You Rong: "I personally put back the banner of the wilderness country in Xilongguan at that time!"
Bai Xiu couldn't help but smile as he watched several gentlemen bragging.
If it hadn't been for that battle, she might not have fallen in love with this silly-looking black-faced man.
At this time, Eunuch Cao's voice sounded outside the door.
"Your Majesty, Princess Anyang has arrived!"
Hear this sound.
Jiang Zheng smiled: "Let her in quickly. This is a family dinner, so there is no need to announce it!"
With that said, he turned to the Zhao family and said, "It's your first time meeting my grandson's wife. My daughter-in-law, have you prepared any red envelopes?"
Zhao Dingbian laughed: "Who are you looking down on? How could you not be prepared?"
The black-faced man looked a little embarrassed and scratched his head subconsciously.
Bai Xiu rolled her eyes at him and said helplessly: "I've prepared it for you, but I don't count on you!"
After saying that, he looked out the door and subconsciously grabbed the skirt of his clothes with his right hand.
