Datang: Signed in for Seven Years and Was Exposed by Empress Changsun

Each play their own way, and get some copper coins as a bet.

The so-called small gambling pleasure will soon be wasted in one night.

When he came to the palace, Li Shimin had just come to court.

Because she wanted to surprise Empress Zhangsun, she was not allowed to come over.

Fortunately, there were many ministers on the scene, so it was easy to organize three people to fight the landlord.

When Li Shimin saw Li Hong, his eyes brightened, "Li Hong, have you found a way to entertain yourself during the birthday banquet?"

Chapter 218 This is Interesting

"Report to Your Majesty, yes!"

"Tell me quickly." Li Shimin was excited, "What kind of pastime?"

Li Hong took out a card and placed it in front of Li Shimin.

"Look, Your Majesty, this is it!"

Li Shimin picked up the cards with a puzzled look on his face.

"What is this?"

"This is called playing cards, I will teach His Majesty how to play first!"

"Playing cards?" Li Shimin pondered, "Is the name a bit strange?!"

"Indeed, but the gameplay is definitely very novel!"

Li Hong looked at the eldest grandson Wuji beside him, and he and Li Shimin were the only relatives present.

So he called him over, "My lord, come and play together!"

"what?"

Changsun Wuji was a little confused, "General Li, how do you play this little card?"

Ever since, Li Hong explained the gameplay to everyone.

Li Shimin also picked up the cards and looked carefully, and found that the backs were all the same.

But there are various suits in front, but the symbols on it are very strange.

Never seen it, and don't know what it means.

So he asked Li Hong curiously, "Li Hong, what do the symbols on it represent?"

Li Shimin was referring to the numbers and letters on the playing cards. Luo Qianqian also asked this question yesterday.

Today he started to explain again, "Reporting to Your Majesty, these are called Arabic numerals, and the others are called letters, also called Latin letters!"

"What the hell is this, and what is that latin?"

It was the first time for Li Shimin to hear these two words, so he naturally found them novel.

So he explained the Arabic numerals and Latin letters to Li Shimin, and everyone exclaimed again and again.

Finally, Li Shimin looked at the numbers on the card and sighed, "I didn't expect such a convenient way to count!"

"Yes, I will continue to explain this to His Majesty later, but let's play cards first today!"

The convenience of Arabic numerals is beyond doubt, and because of the spread of numbers.

The progress of Western Neo-Confucianism in later generations was so fast that it surpassed the traditional Chinese empire for a hundred years.

But now the Westerners are not in a good mood, and they can't delay their playing cards for two days.

Li Shimin also nodded, "Okay, what you said just now is very interesting, let's start."

"Okay, Your Majesty." Then Li Hong looked at Changsun Wuji again, "Has Master Changsun understood?"

Changsun Wuji scratched the back of his head embarrassingly, "I understand, but I can still play around."

The rest of the ministers felt that this thing was relatively novel, so they all came together.

Wanting to see how it was played, Li Shimin was also willing to let them come and watch.

"Come and learn, let's play this game on the queen's birthday the day after tomorrow."

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

A group of ministers surrounded the three of them, watching Li Hong's operations intently.

I saw Li Hong shuffling the cards very skillfully, which dazzled everyone.

A minister began to flatter, "General Li's hand is really beautiful!"

"Yes!" The rest of the ministers were not far behind, "It's like flowers blooming under your hands."

"..."

Li Hong didn't have time to pay attention to their flattery, but suggested cards to the two of them.

Because it was the first round, Li Hong took the initiative to become the landlord on his own initiative.

Then I taught the two of them to practice, after all, it was something of a gambling nature.
