Li Zhi, don't be a coward

Chapter 788
The gift Li Qinzai gave was not too expensive, but it was definitely delivered to King Teng's heart.

Cockfighting is King Teng's favorite, as are gambling tools. King Teng is an old dude, but he is very interested in anything related to eating, drinking, whoring and gambling.

King Teng had no choice but to try his best to hold his face. If he didn't try harder, he was afraid that he would laugh out loud.

However, his expression was tense, but his eyes were so damn hard to hide, those two little mung bean eyes shining with excitement had completely betrayed him.

Li Qinzai looked at it calmly, blindly touched one of the one hundred and eight mahjong tiles, rubbed his fingers against the surface of the tile, and suddenly said, "Eighty thousand."

The face of the card was turned upwards, and it was indeed a card of [-].

Touched another one, said in the mouth: "Six pieces."

The card was turned over, but it was a nine of a kind.

A look of embarrassment flashed across Li Qinzai's face. Although he invented this thing, he has never been very interested in gambling, and his skills are getting rusty day by day.

Seeing Li Qinzai overturned the car, King Teng sneered disdainfully, reached out to touch the card, and said proudly: "A round lump!"

When the card was turned over, Li Qinzai said with a smile: "Your Highness guessed really accurately, but it's not called 'Yuan Tuo Tuo', it's called 'Yi Bing'."

King Teng stared, "I can call you whatever I like!"

Li Qinzai laughed hurriedly: "That's right, it's just a round lump."

There is no shame in being humble to please the future father-in-law.

As long as he let go, he is willing to marry his daughter to him, and after the raw rice is cooked, and then restores the previous relationship between cheating and being cheated, that is the normal state of life.

Then, the next moment, Li Qinzai appeared in the side hall of Prince Teng's mansion and taught Prince Teng how to play mahjong.

I have to say that the old dandy's understanding of eating, drinking and playing is really a genius level. Li Qinzai gave a brief introduction, and then demonstrated it twice. King Teng basically understood how to play mahjong. After teaching several types of cards, King Teng Has been upgraded to proficient level.

Not only did he know how to play all kinds of cards, but he even knew how to count and how to calculate the bets after winning all kinds of cards.

Li Qinzai felt admiration from the bottom of his heart this time. It would be a pity not to open a casino and lend usury for his IQ.

After learning how to play mahjong, King Teng put on his pants and refused to admit it.

"My king has already learned mahjong. It's getting late, so I won't keep you..." King Teng said calmly.

Li Qinzai said in astonishment: "Didn't you even cover up the demolition of the bridge when you crossed the river?"

King Teng sneered and squinted at him: "Li Qinzai, you and I know the purpose of your visit to the door today. I tell you, there is no way! Don't even think about it. My daughter has been a favorite since she was a child. How can I give it to you?" A concubine?"

Li Qinzai blinked: "You don't want to hit the smiling face with your hand, Your Highness, the officer gave you such an important gift today, at least it's not too much to keep me for a meal, right?"

King Teng said coldly: "I don't want you to eat, how will you treat me?"

"When I left this door, I cried loudly on the street, saying that King Teng was rude and kicked me out after accepting my gift. This is different from stealing money..."

King Teng said with a livid face, "Eat, eat, eat!"

The night banquet in the palace had a lot of dishes, big fish and big meat just greeted them, since he decided to stay with the guests, Prince Teng was not stingy, not only provided wine and meat, but also let the kabuki raised in the mansion come out to entertain the guests.

Of course, the atmosphere between the host and the guest was not harmonious. Li Qinzai took the initiative to toast several times, but King Teng pretended not to see him, his eyes were only on the dancers dancing in front of him, and he was in a state of ecstasy.

The two drank their own drinks, and the atmosphere of the banquet was quite awkward. Even the dancing maikos sensed that something was wrong. Under the tension in their hearts, their dancing postures were a little out of shape.

Li Qinzai didn't mind either, as long as King Teng didn't ambush swordsmen in the corridor, or imitated Xiang Zhuang and danced swords in front of him, no matter how embarrassing the atmosphere was, Li Qinzai would be happy.

Halfway through the banquet, King Teng was half drunk from drinking himself, but suddenly he slammed the table and said, "The sword is coming! This king wants to dance with it, and enjoy the wine with the distinguished guests!"

Li Qinzai's eyelids twitched, what the hell do you want to be so bloody, if you want to scare people, just say it, why has the same virtue throughout the ages, you have to dance swords at banquets to express your desire to sword people?

Li Qinzai also stood up immediately, and reacted quickly and shouted: "By the way, take another kitchen knife, and I will chop each other with Your Highness..., no, dance with each other!"

"Dish...a kitchen knife?" King Teng's face was ugly, but the servants of the palace quickly brought up a long sword and a kitchen knife.

King Teng stared at the long sword and kitchen knife in front of him, and the bloody picture of the two copying the knife and chopping each other involuntarily appeared in his mind, tsk!
His cheeks twitched a few times, and King Teng finally swung his sleeves and shouted, "Back off!"

The servants respectfully held the long sword and the kitchen knife and disappeared.

Li Qinzai sneered secretly, playing with me as a bastard, you are still a little tender, do you think that the notorious reputation you earned in Chang'an City in the first 20 years of your life was given for nothing?It all depends on strength and skill!
King Teng sat back at the table resentfully, took a swig from his cup, glared at Li Qinzai and said, "The feast is entertaining, the guests and hosts enjoyed themselves, should you go?"

Li Qinzai sighed. After all, he was also a member of the royal family. Has the education and etiquette been fed to the dog?How can there be a reason for the host to chase the guest?
What's more, "the guest and the host have a good time", we two almost cut each other with a knife in the current atmosphere, does it have anything to do with the guest and the host having a good time?

Inside a screen behind the front hall, a delicate figure approached quietly, and stood silently behind the screen, listening to the movements of the two people in the front hall.

Li Qinzai put down the wine cup, sighed, with a rare sincerity on his expression.

"Your Highness, don't mention your identity or your background. My daughter and I are in love with each other. The love between a man and a woman comes from the heart, but it is not disturbed by etiquette."

King Teng glanced at him coldly: "Don't you think it's too hypocritical for a married man to say this? If you have never been married, it is all right for my daughter to marry you, but you already have a family. My daughter is a clan relative, if she wants to be your concubine, it would be wishful thinking."

Li Qinzai smiled: "It's not hypocrisy, but frankness, and I'm not begging you to marry my daughter to me, it's just that things have happened, and there are all kinds of rumors in Chang'an City, but I haven't made a formal statement in front of His Highness. "

"There is no other purpose in talking to His Highness about this today. I just tell His Highness that I like your daughter. I don't hide or evade. If I like it, I like it. It doesn't matter if His Highness doesn't agree. It's enough to know that I like your daughter."

King Teng narrowed his eyes: "Are you provocative?"

"Don't dare to provoke. Today, in front of His Highness, my attitude is very correct and sincere. Every word is from the heart, and I am not rude."

King Teng sneered: "What bad idea are you planning to force this king to submit?"

Li Qinzai looked directly into his eyes, and said calmly: "If I really want to make a bad idea, I'm afraid His Highness won't be able to handle it. I can make you obedient in front of the emperor that day, but I still choose to marry Qianjin in a dignified way."

"Regarding this matter, I will not play any tricks in front of His Highness, because I am clean with the county magistrate Jinxiang, and I also hope to give her a clean future. It will be a stain for life."

King Teng showed surprise and remained silent for a while.

Li Qinzai said with a smile: "Your Highness does not need to regard me as a good person. I ask myself what I have done in this life, and there are not many that fit the word 'good person'."

"But Your Highness doesn't have to think too bad of me, I'm actually not that bad."
