Chapter 90 [The frustrated Fan Jian]
Fan Jian put away the pieces of silver that were not too much but were considered spoils on the table and prepared to go back to the room to sleep.
He won the game tonight with Paijiu, and he was very happy and killed everyone. Especially when he saw Fan Sizhe being reluctant to pay.
It turns out that this is the feeling of winning.
At this moment, the Minister of Revenue, who never participated in gambling, seemed to finally understand the pleasure of the gambling table, and also understood why so many people could not quit gambling even if they lost all their money.
This is a mentality of gaining nothing but gaining something from a small amount.
Before promoting Paijiu, Fan Jian also invited Fan Zui to have fun and everyone relaxed, but Fan Zui refused on the grounds that there were still very important and anxious things to do at night.
And he also said something that made Fan Jian a little confused until now:
"I am not interested in gambling such as Pubiao playing mahjong slot machines. I am irrelevant to gambling and drugs."
At that time, Fan Zui left the living room and returned to his yard after saying this.
It is okay to have a small gambling, but you must not get stuck in it and cannot extricate yourself.
In fact, gamblers have already delivered their destiny to others since they entered the abyss.
The world is so big that it is a game. Why do you still have to bet even if you know you will lose?
Some people wonder: Since people know that nine out of ten gambling lose, why are they still keen on gambling?
Generally speaking, casinos are good at setting up mystery. First, let the gambler taste a little sweetness, and then they can try to get it clean, causing them to bear a lot of gambling debts or even lose everything.
Any gambler wins and wants to win more, and when he loses, he wants to make a comeback. It is like a donkey tied to a mill, trapped by this kind of pleasure or unwillingness to stop until he loses completely.
It's really a sad life without realization.
There are six major mistakes in gambling:
The first property will be lost;
The second winner is not calm;
Third, he was scolded by the wise;
Fourth, not respected and trusted;
Fifth, alienated;
The sixth is to raise gambling funds and create the intention of stealing.
Anyone who is involved in gambling and fails to turn back in time will end up in a very miserable way.
When his stupid son suggested that he wanted to promote Paijiu, Fan Jian couldn't help but feel a little sad. It would be fine if this kid didn't learn well. If he dared to get involved in gambling, even if the Fan family was defeated, he would have to castrate him.
In fact, during the process of promoting Paijiu, Fan Jian had already sent a reliable underground man in the mansion to verify immediately. Is this stupid guy really trapped in gambling outside?
It would be harmless if you just have a simple hobby as occasional entertainment.
Fortunately, the housekeeper came back from the investigation and told him that the young master was not involved in gambling outside, and that the young master had no money enough for him to go out to play these playboys who were gambling in wine and wine.
In this bustling capital, perhaps Fan Sizhe is the most wealthy young master of the official family.
After listening to the butler's report, Fan Jian finally felt relieved and remembered what the silly son said just now, good luck and bad luck sounded reasonable, but this kind of thing could not be fulfilled in himself.
At least not today.
After washing up, I untied my clothes and prepared to go to bed to rest.
However, before I even had time to sit on the bed, there was a sudden clamor outside that knocked on the door.
This is the backyard of Fan Mansion. Those who stay here are all servants and maids. They are managed by Liu Ruyu's soft and hard methods on weekdays and are managed in a good manner. They are well organized and will not knock on the door in the middle of the night.
Something must have happened.
"What's the matter?" Fan Jian asked, then quickly put on his clothes, went forward and opened the door and walked out.
The wind was a little cold at night. Fan Jian tightened his clothes and looked at the maid standing in a slightly dim corridor. Her face was filled with anxiety and panic that was different from the past.
"Master, there are many imperial guards outside, saying that you will be admitted to the palace overnight by His Majesty's oral order."
In the mansion, Fan Jian has always been good to his servants and maids. He will not easily beat and scold and deduct wages. He will also give his servants some money during festivals.
Therefore, he has a lot of prestige among servants and maids, and is highly respected and loved by everyone from the bottom of their hearts.
Being connected to the palace by the imperial guards in the middle of the night, it is generally not a good thing in all dynasties.
So, after learning the news, the maid who was responsible for coming to the backyard to inform him was instantly panicked.
Upon hearing this news, Fan Jian, who was already planning to sleep, couldn't help but be stunned for a moment. Could it be that His Majesty was lonely late at night and wanted to find him to relieve his loneliness?
What's wrong with this old guy doing in the middle of the night? Is there so many concubines in the harem not enough for him to do anything?
Although Your Majesty is now at a certain age, he is still quite strong because of his martial arts practice, and he is not the kind of person who cannot afford to play with it.
However, he was alone in the imperial study room and shot arrows alone. Most of the time he would sleep in the imperial study room instead of going back to the harem to flip the sign.
Is arrows more fun than those concubines?
I really don’t understand what he was thinking. This is probably the saying in the West Chamber. Others have to play secretly even if they have an affair. It’s better for you, you won’t even play when you get married.
Suddenly, a cold wind blew, causing the saplings in the yard to bend over, and a few pieces of rubble fell and hit the ground, causing a crisp sound.
Fan Jian sorted out his clothes and was about to close the door and leave, but at the moment he closed the door, he seemed to think of something, so he turned around and looked at the maid and asked hurriedly:
"Is the eldest young master still in the mansion?"
The maid's hair fluttered in the cold wind at night. She shook her head and said:
"The eldest young master has already gone out just now. He said there is something important to do. I guess I won't come back for breakfast tomorrow."
Upon hearing this, Fan Jian couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth. He now understood why His Majesty had to summon him in the middle of the night.
No need to guess, it must be that bastard boy who didn’t sleep at home in the middle of the night, and then went to the brothel to climb the mountain and explore the cave all night.
"evil creature!"
With the cold wind, the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, who has always managed the Ministry of Revenue in an orderly manner, couldn't help but curse in a low voice.
He looked at the dark night outside and listened to the wind, then covered his chest and pushed the door and turned into the room, saying to the maid:
"You tell the person who came to pass the oral order that I suddenly felt severe angina pectoris and could not get cold when I was blowing the wind and was probably only able to rest for one night and apologize to Your Majesty tomorrow."
A hint of surprise flashed across the maid's slightly delicate face under the darkness, and then she said:
"Master, Your Majesty sent the Imperial Doctor to accompany you, and the Imperial Guards also came with a sedan chair that could block the wind."
Fan Jian instantly let go of his hand covering his chest and whispered, "What the maid didn't hear clearly."
He instantly recovered from the angina pectoris, and he walked out with his foot, but did not forget to give instructions:
"Tell the butler, let him take someone to Zuixianju and tie the eldest young master back for me, and let him not go anywhere tonight."
The maid paused for a moment and followed quickly and said, "Master, the butler just told me that he couldn't bear the cold of angina pectoris, and he had already reported his illness and went out to get medicine."
Fan Jian: "...Okay, when your wife wakes up, you tell her, arrest the third young master and beat him up. Oh no, just deduct all his monthly money this month."
