Li Huier raised her head, but saw Feng Liang looking at her with a blue face. Feng Liang was holding the necklace in his hand, and the hairband on his head was broken, and the hair tied up was mostly dispersed on his face. There was also the scratch on his left face that had just been dismantled. He was very embarrassed and had no slightest like a playboy. "The princess knows my situation." Feng Liang said to her, his mouth was still twitching. "I want to bet myself, ten thousand pieces of silk. You are a royal family member, and I can't lie to you. You can believe me."
"I believe you." Li Huier looked at Feng Liang's eyes that seemed to be trying to choose someone and smiled faintly. It seemed that the huge amount of ten thousand silk did not affect him at all. "Not to mention that Feng Wulang is Feng Changshi's nephew, it is enough to be based on Feng Wulang's direct origin in the Feng Hai Feng family. Just 10,000 silk pieces are not going to cheat, but if you make a bet of ten thousand silk at once, your odds are now one or three."
Feng Liang frowned and said, "Why is there one or three compensations? Why is it so different from Li Jing?"
"You can also place some more bets. The more bets you have in your name, the lower the training rate will be. On the contrary, the fewer bets you have in your name, the more you will be able to increase some odds. Feng Wulang is also a person who plays a lot. Wouldn't you even understand this?"
Feng Liang gritted his teeth and said in a slight voice: "What about I'll pay another ten thousand yuan?"
"One accompanying one."
"Okay, I'll give you 20,000."
"Yes, but please leave a token for Feng Wulang. It's not that we trust you, but that's just like this. To be honest, even if Feng Wulang refuses to admit the account, we can still take back the money." Li Huier didn't care about Feng Liang's big bets. Twenty thousand pieces of silk, 16,000 guan, and 16 million guan, although it's a lot, Li Huier doesn't believe that the Feng family in Bohai dares to rely on the money from the Zhao Palace. As for the risks, Li Huier really didn't think that Feng Liang would win.
Feng Liang took off a jade bi from his body and handed it to Li Huier and said, "This is my family jade plaque. I have one for my direct descendants of Feng's family, and my name is engraved on it, so I use it as a token." After that, he turned around and left.
At this time, the sun sets west and dusk is coming.
On the temporary martial arts competition field on the river bank outside the city gate, not only did the number of people watching, but the number of people gathered more and more. The news that Feng Liang, the playboy Feng Liang, fought against the Yongsanlang Xiao Li Guang, who killed bandits in Chishan outside the city, had already spread throughout the city. It was said that the two of them had bet on precious things such as horse spears. It was said that the princess of the Zhao Palace had opened a plate bet, which caused the city's maritime merchants, Hu merchants and rogues to flock to him. No one wanted to miss the excitement.
Some nimble vendors did not even miss this business opportunity. They carried the load and set up pancake stalls, dried fruit stalls, wine, tea, and cold water on the river bank. For a while, it seemed like a picnic gathering along the coast. The crowds were crowded and extremely lively.
The second battle between Li Jing and Feng Liang was not immediately done, because a large number of people came to watch. Li Huier and Yu Youniang, who were temporarily starting the gambling game, simply expanded the scene. The battle between Li Jing and the two were postponed by an hour, so they were rested and prepared for them during this period. Especially Feng Liang's war horse was abandoned and the horse spear was gone. He had to prepare these again now.
On the other hand, Li Huier and the others used this free time to organize a competition meeting. They convened dozens of people to register for the competition, including ordinary people, gangsters, and sergeants. The competition also included step-by-step battles, wrestling, cavalry battles, riding shooting, step shooting, five-person battles, ten-person battles and other events. Everyone who participated could get a lot of money immediately, and the winners also had additional rewards.
Li Huier and the others made a bet on every game, which can be regarded as a second battle for Li Jing and the others to expand the momentum and create an atmosphere.
Li Jing was arranged on a temporary stage on one side as one of the referees in the following competition. Li Jing was a little impressed by Li Huier and the others' ability to toss and do so. Although they were tossing and forced themselves to the opposing stage with the Feng family, Li Jing still couldn't blame them, because Li Huier and Yu Youniang not only have noble identities, but also their outfits are very handsome and cute today.
Although they were all wearing men's clothing, these two people did not wear makeup because of this. The makeup of the Tang Dynasty women was very gorgeous, but for Li Jing, the makeup of the Tang Dynasty women was a bit scary. After shaved her eyebrows, she painted them with scary eyebrows, especially the layer of lead powder on their faces, which was so white that it felt like a corpse of frozen Xinjiang. The rouge lipstick on the lips was also very strange, just a little bit between the lips and two dots on both cheeks. Finally, a golden hairpin must be applied on the forehead.
People in this era have used this kind of makeup as beauty, but for Li Jing, such makeup is not something that his aesthetic view can adapt to. After the Tang Dynasty, when they were in Wangli Village, they were all rural women, and they did not have such exaggerated makeup. But after entering Penglai City, he saw what the Tang Dynasty women's makeup was, which was simply a thunderous death.
Now both Li Huier and her two dresses are dressed in men, washing away the dew and showing off their plain faces, but in Li Jing's eyes, it is rare to be pleasing to the eye. Both of them are as white as white, and their eyebrows are simply drawn into two willows. The pink lips like peach blossoms are even more attractive even though they are not coated with rouge.
Li Huier's smile like a silver bell was still echoing in her ears. At this time, Li Jing still did not forget the scene when Li Huier threw Yu Youniang's handkerchief into her arms just now. The white su handkerchief was embroidered with a pair of flying birds, full of orchid-like fragrance.
"This princess is really as romantic as a summer flower, and her junior sister is like a rose under the moon. It's a pity that she has no chance to meet." Facing the two girls, Li Jing was serious and polite on her face, but in fact she couldn't help singing in her heart.
"Feng Liang put a heavy bet of 20,000 pieces of silk, and he seemed to have confidence in winning. Sanlang, where do you think his confidence comes from?" Li Huier laughed softly, and his eyes were filled with smiles when he looked at Li Jing.
"I will take it seriously with one force to reduce it to ten times." Li Jing was also a little uneasy about Feng Liang's big bet. Feng Liang is a playboy, but he is not a fool. Twenty thousand pieces of silk, even if Feng Liang is a direct descendant of the Feng family, I am afraid that the money will not be easily taken out at this time. However, the arrow was on the string and he had to fire it at this time. While speaking, Li Jing took a whetstone and polished the edge of the horse spear that he had just obtained.
"Li Jiyu, it would be too late to admit defeat now!" Feng Liang's voice with rampant and smugness came from under the mask armor.
