The carriage continued to drive on the wide street, and the peddler's cries were still heard in the ears. A few girls with double braids on the street were playing and laughing in pink cotton jackets and cotton hats. It was still an ordinary day.

There was a thin layer of snow on the road, and the wheels ran over and made a shallow mark.

Wen Tingyi quietly looked out the car window in a daze, Lu Sui was worried that he would catch cold in the wind, so he reached out to wrap his arms around him and pulled him into his arms.

"Heng Xiao, do you have something on your mind?"

Wen Tingyi shook his head, shrank into his arms, lowered his eyes and said, "No, I was just thinking about the dream I had just now."

Lu Sui blocked his mouth with an index finger, and said, "Don't think about it, it's just a dream, you know you almost scared me to death."

"Sorry, I..." Wen Tingyi didn't know how to speak.

That dream was weird, but it made him feel very real.The overwhelming sense of despair, oppression, the feeling that the soul was torn apart, the heart was ripped out, but the body was left there to be humiliated—so uncomfortable that Wen Tingyi felt as if he had experienced it himself.

but……

Wen Tingyi reached out to touch Lu Sui's hand, and suddenly felt more at ease.

Forget it, how disturbed he is to be able to dream of such a scene even in a dream... Sure enough, he is too greedy, obviously he has obtained something that he never dared to expect.

Wen Tingyi smiled, and slowly kissed Lu Sui's fingertips.Lu Sui was naturally very happy to see his daughter-in-law smiling, and when he was happy, he immediately hugged her and rolled her, pinning her down.

The two only had each other in their eyes. Lu Sui slowly lowered his head, while Wen Tingyi gently closed his eyes. Just when the two breathed each other, the carriage stopped suddenly, and Lu Sui hurriedly protected the person under him. It was not thrown off.

"Your Highness, forgive me." The coachman's voice came through the hollow carved partition.

Lu Sui held the person in his arms steady, and when the carriage stopped shaking, he first looked down at the person in his arms, and then said, "We are fine, what happened?"

This accident came unexpectedly, and the affection floating in the air disappeared in an instant. Lu Sui wailed inwardly, touched his nose, and rubbed against his wife's neck reluctantly.

The fire all over his body actually extinguished by himself...

Wen Tingyi let out a chuckle, and patted a certain royal highness who was making trouble on his neck: "Your highness, are you still awake?"

The coachman didn't know what was going on inside the carriage, so he still answered seriously, "His Royal Highness, there is Qianjinfang not far ahead, and there seems to be some turmoil."

Lu Sui scratched his head helplessly, got up from his daughter-in-law, and waited for her daughter-in-law to tidy up, then opened the curtain of the car with resentment, and walked out.

Not far ahead, a group of officers and soldiers stopped a skinny, ragged old man with messy hair and beard outside the main entrance of Qianjinfang. Unrolled burlap paper.

"I beg you to let me in, my money...I still want to make money." The old man was blocked by officers and soldiers at the door, knelt on the ground and begged over and over again, staring straight at the door that was sealed by a white seal .

"Old man, don't yell here, this damn place should have been closed long ago, be sensible and leave quickly, don't make us brothers look bad."

One of the officers and soldiers stepped forward and took one of his arms to drag him away, but suddenly felt a tingling pain in his hand. It turned out that the old man bit him with his mouth in a hurry.

"I'm not leaving...my money, there's my money in it!"

The officers and soldiers felt pain in their hands, and hurriedly let go. The old man took advantage of the gap to escape from him, and crawled around him to the gate, scrambling for the seal on Sina with trembling hands.

"Hey, stop him quickly." With an order, several other people hurried forward and grabbed the old man's arm again, pulling him away.

This time, the old man resisted even more fiercely, as if the gold he got flew away from his eyes, and he lay on the ground crying tears.

"Don't pull me! There's still one round...and the last round!" He choked up and stretched out his hands to explore the door, "As long as I win... I will win this round!"

All the officers and soldiers looked at each other, not knowing what to do for a while.

At this moment, an old woman in a dark brown sackcloth rushed in: "Old man, what are you doing, old man... Come home with me."

The old woman looked haggard, her hands were wrinkled, and her sleeves were badly worn.When everyone saw her coming, they let go of their hands and left a place for the old lady.

"Girl, wait for me... This is the last round, trust me, I will never gamble again!" The old man's eyes were bloodshot, and he clasped the old woman's arms while crying while shaking his head, saying: "You Let me play a game, and we have to redeem Yu'er for the money we win!"

"Yu'er, Yu'er... Where did you die?" The old woman looked at the crazy man in front of her, tears rolled out of her cloudy old eyes, and she choked up, "Don't bet that you won't listen, the family can sell it." I sold them all, and I didn't even stop my daughter, where did you die long ago? You...you want to find Yu'er now? Why did you go so early?"

Wen Tingyi watched the scene in front of him quietly, closed his eyes slowly, then took Lu Sui's hand and said, "Your Highness, let's go."

Lu Sui sighed lightly: "Who didn't have a harmonious family and a happy life. Once he was addicted to gambling, his wife and children were separated."

The existence of Qianjinfang is like a malignant sore, if it cannot be eradicated, the people of Shuzhou will not be able to live a comfortable life.

The old woman was still grabbing her collar and asking her husband what was wrong, but the bottom line was that they were all victims.It doesn't matter whether it's the harmful Qianjinfang, the ignorant old man who is addicted to casinos, or the weak and helpless old woman who can only wait for everything to end, or the old woman who is kneeling on the ground and crying bitterly.

How can the suffering of the thousands of people in Shuzhou City be explained so simply and clearly?

Lu Sui sighed and said, "Now that Qianjinfang has been removed, these common people can finally live a normal life."

"Your Highness."

Hearing Wen Tingyi calling him suddenly, Lu Sui turned his head puzzled, and heard the people beside him say: "It's not the fault of these innocent people, but if you think about it, it's the people who made them fall into such a situation in the end. Also themselves."

They are the ones who are willing to degenerate and indulge in gambling; they are the ones who abandon their wives and children, and even sacrifice their own flesh and blood.From the beginning to the end, no one has pressed their heads and imprisoned them into sinking.

In the end, it was their own weak will and wishful thinking that harmed them.

Wen Tingyi turned his eyes away from the two old people, and looked at Hua Xiaolou who was still looking around in the sun not far away, and Lu Fu who was sitting on the horse meticulously.

"Entrusting the rest of my life to the unpredictable game of gambling, wishful thinking that I can turn the tables in one day, but I don't want to lose everything. If I am willing to work hard and work hard, how can I end up like this?"

The people around gathered more and more, and everyone couldn't help shaking their heads and sighing bitterly when they saw the scene in front of them. Some people thought that they were not in such a miserable land now, and felt even more sad from it.

It was inconvenient for the two of them to stay longer, and when they were about to turn around and return to the carriage, Lu Sui suddenly pulled Wen Tingyi back: "Heng Xiao, I won't do this."

Don't dream about delusions and magic barriers, if you want to get it, you can fight and protect it by yourself.

Wen Tingyi was taken aback for a moment, then suddenly smiled for a while, and said to him, "Your Highness, I am too."

There are three hundred acres of fertile land in the heart, and there is only Qing without poetry or wine.If I want to bet on you, I won't allow it, because this is betting on my life...
