From the beginning of celebrating more than one year, the sun shines on the sky

Chapter 90 [Aggrieved Fan Jian]

Fan Jian put away the winnings on the table, a pile of not too much but considered spoils of silver, and prepared to go back to his room to sleep.

Pushing Pai Gow tonight, he can be said to have won heartily and smashed all sides, especially when he saw Fan Sizhe's reluctance to pay.

Turns out, that's what winning feels like.

At this moment, Tobu Shiro, who had never participated in gambling, seemed to finally realize some of the joy of the gambling table, and also understood why so many people could not quit gambling even if they lost their fortunes.

This is a kind of mentality of getting something for nothing and making a big difference with a small amount.

Before pushing Pai Gow, Fan Jian also invited Fan Zui to play and relax together, but Fan Zui refused on the grounds that he still had important and urgent things to do at night.

And he also said something that Fan Jian is still a little confused up to now:
"Pushing Pai Gow and playing mahjong slot machines are all things I don't care about gambling. I have nothing to do with gambling and drugs."

At that time, Fan Zui left the living room after saying this and returned to his yard.

Small gambling is fine, but don't get caught up in it.

Gamblers have actually entrusted their fate to others since they stepped into the abyss.

The whole world is a game, why do you still gamble when you know you will lose?
Some people wonder: Since people know that nine out of ten bets lose, why are they still keen on gambling?
Under normal circumstances, casinos are good at setting up puzzles. First, let the gambler taste a little bit of sweetness, and then try to clean him up, causing him to bear a lot of gambling debts, and even go bankrupt.

All gamblers, if they win, they want to win more, and if they lose, they want to make money. Like a donkey tied to a mill, they are locked up by this kind of pleasure or unwillingness, and they can't stop until they lose completely. It is a sad and unconscious life.

Gambling has six major sins:
The first fortune will be ruined;
In the second victory or defeat, the heart is not at peace;

The third is reprimanded by wise men;
Fourth, not being respected and trusted by others;

The fifth is alienated;

The sixth is that raising money for gambling will create the heart of stealing.

Anyone who is contaminated with gambling and does not turn back in time will end in a very miserable end.

When his stupid son proposed that he wanted to push Pai Gow, Fan Jian couldn't help but thump in his heart. It's fine if this kid doesn't learn well. If he dares to get involved in gambling, even if the Fan family is wiped out, he must castrate him.

In fact, during the process of promoting Pai Gow, Fan Jian had already sent reliable underground people from the government to check immediately to see if this idiot was really stuck in gambling outside.

If it's just a pure hobby as occasional entertainment, it's harmless.

Fortunately, the butler came back from the investigation and told him that the young master has not been contaminated with gambling outside, and the young master has no money enough for him to go out and play these playboy activities that gamble and gamble.

In this bustling capital city, perhaps Fan Sizhe can be regarded as the poorest son of an official family.

After listening to the butler's report, Fan Jian finally felt relieved. He would think of the good luck and bad luck that the silly son said just now, which sounds reasonable, but this kind of thing can't happen to him.

At least not today.

After taking a shower, he undressed and prepared to go to bed.

However, just halfway through taking off her clothes and even before she had time to sit on the bed, there was a sudden knock on the door outside.

This is the backyard of the Fan Mansion, and the servants who stayed here to take care of them were submissive and well-organized by Liu Ruyu's hard and soft methods and thunderous methods on weekdays, so they would not be so rash and 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 again, stepped forward to open the door and walked out.

The wind at night was a bit cold, Fan Jian tightened his clothes and looked at the maid standing in the slightly dark corridor, her face was different from the usual anxiety and panic.

"My lord, there are a lot of imperial guards outside, and they say that your majesty ordered you to enter the palace overnight to face the saint."

In the mansion, Fan Jian has always been kind to his servants, he will not easily beat and scold them and deduct their wages, and he will give some money to the servants of the mansion during festivals.

Therefore, he has a lot of prestige among servants and maidservants, and he is respected and loved by everyone from the bottom of his heart.

Being admitted to the palace by the forbidden army in the middle of the night, in the past dynasties, it is generally not a good thing.

Therefore, after hearing the news, the maid who was in charge of coming to the backyard to notify her panicked instantly.

Hearing this news, Fan Jian, who was about to go to sleep, couldn't help being slightly stunned. Could it be that His Majesty is so lonely late at night and wants to find him to relieve his loneliness?
What the hell is this old guy doing in the middle of the night, so many concubines in the harem are not enough for him to torment?

Although His Majesty is now of a certain age, his body is still strong because of martial arts training, and he is not the kind of person who can't afford to play with.

However, he grinds and touches arrows and shoots arrows alone in the imperial study room all day long, and most of the time he sleeps in the imperial study room instead of going back to the harem to turn cards.

Are arrows more fun than those concubines?
I really don't understand what he is thinking, this is probably a sentence in the book "The West Chamber", others cheated and played secretly, but you are better off, you don't play when you marry and go home.

Suddenly, a gust of cold wind made the saplings in the yard bend over, and a few pieces of rubble fell on the ground with a crisp sound.

Fan Jian tidied up his clothes and was about to close the door and leave, but at the moment of closing the door, he seemed to think of something, so he turned to look at the maid and asked hastily:

"Is the young master still in the mansion?"

The servant girl's hair fluttered in the cold night wind, she shook her head and said:

"The young master has gone out just now. He said he has something very important to do. He probably won't come back for breakfast tomorrow morning."

Hearing this, the corners of Fan Jian's mouth couldn't help twitching. He now understood why His Majesty had summoned him in the middle of the night.

No need to guess, it must be that bastard kid who didn't sleep at home in the middle of the night, and went to the brothel to climb mountains and explore caves all night.

"evil creature!"

Amidst the chilly wind, the servant of the household department, who had always managed the household department in an orderly manner, couldn't help cursing in a low voice at this moment.

He glanced at the night outside and listened to the wind, then he covered his chest and opened the door, turned and entered the house, and said to the servant girl:
"You tell the person who came to pass the word, that I suddenly have a severe angina, and I can't catch the cold in the wind. I guess I can only rest for one night and then go up to apologize to His Majesty tomorrow."

A look of surprise flashed across the maidservant's slightly delicate face under the night, and she said:

"My lord, His Majesty has sent an imperial physician to accompany him, and the imperial army also came with a sedan chair that can block the wind."

Fan Jian instantly let go of his hand covering his chest, and cursed something in a low voice that the servant girl didn't hear clearly.

He recovered from the angina in an instant, lifted his feet and walked outside, but did not forget to order:

"You tell the butler to take someone to Zuixianju and tie the young master back for me, and let him not go anywhere tonight."

The servant girl paused for a moment and quickly followed up and said, "Master, the butler just told me that he has angina and can't stand the cold, and he has already asked him to go get medicine."

Fan Jian: "...All right, when Madam wakes up, tell her to arrest the third young master and beat him up, oh no, just deduct all his monthly allowance for this month."
