♂?，，

  Yelü Lü was stunned for a moment, his mouth twitched several times, and finally chose to remain silent.

  Yelü Hongji really had no social experience, and the four guards understood what to do after seeing Yelü Lü's expression. They immediately took a firm stance, demanding that the courtesan hand over 100 wen of money at once!

  The hall owner looked at the four guards and his face suddenly changed: "Four brothers, you often come here to play, this kid doesn't understand the rules, do you?"

  Xiao's servant gave a wink to the shop assistant, indicating that he should stop arguing. However, his hand slapped the table: "What my young master says is the rule in this Da Liao, if he wants compensation, then let's change the rules!"

  Tang Que understood the meaning of that look, and also knew the information revealed in Xiao Shouwei's words. However, he could open up a gambling den, so naturally there were people supporting him. If according to Ye Lu Hongji's words, giving 100 coins on the table was equivalent to him overturning the table himself.

  Tang Yan was hesitating, wondering if it was time to discuss with the boss, Ye Liu Hongji saw that several guards were speaking for himself, and he thought that reason was on his side, so he shouted even more fiercely.

  The boss thought for a long time and finally said, "Alright, I'll give you the money because of the face of several brothers who are regular customers. Just hope that this young master will leave here after taking the money and not make any more trouble."

  Yelü Hongji grunted: "Take the money and I'll naturally leave. Even if you keep me, I won't stay."

  Seeing things being resolved due to the compromise of the casino, Chen Yuwei smiled and said: "Your Highness, see? Nothing will come out of it. The prince himself asked for his money back."

  Yelü Lüjing was also delighted: "Yes, it's best to leave here. Let's go find a place to eat something and then return to the palace."

  Just when everyone thought it was all over, Yelü Hongji suddenly dropped a few coins on the ground and hurriedly bent down to pick them up.

  This little money is very important to him, it's his first time winning at gambling.

  But when picking up the money, Yelü Hongji was still in a state of excitement and accidentally bumped into the gambling table, causing a loud "crash" sound, and all the objects on the table fell to the ground, and the tabletop was completely overturned.

  Yelü Hongji got up and said apologetically: "Sorry, I didn't mean to."

  Those four guards were astonished and looked at Yelü Hongji, who seemed to be unaware of anything, and the one surnamed Xiao shouted immediately: "Brothers,"

  Before he could utter the two words "get lost", the madam shouted in anger: "How dare you overturn our table! Beat him up!"

  Although the surname Xiao didn't say it out loud, these guards often came to the casino and understood that if a table in the casino was overturned, it meant either being beaten out with fists or being knocked down by the casino staff and carried out.

  Chen Yuan was shocked by the sudden fight at the door and hurriedly lifted up his long shirt. The princess, however, drew out the curved knife from her waist and said to Chen Yuan, "No need to go up, let me through!"

  Chen Yuanshan thought to himself, I didn't plan on going up anyway, lifting my long shirt was just to make it easier for me to run. Hearing the princess say this, he responded with a sound of "Oh!" and quickly turned around, rushing out of the small door of the gambling den.

  Outside was still quiet, Chen Yuan saw that there were no people around and secretly rejoiced in his heart: "Leaning against the door is still beneficial, a gentleman does not stand under a precarious wall, leaning against the door, whatever unexpected thing runs out will be faster."

  Just as I finished thinking, dozens of people suddenly rushed out from both sides. Judging by their appearance, they seemed to be the same kind of thugs found in gambling dens. It seemed that the people from the gambling den had received news and were launching a large-scale attack!

  Chen Yuanzheng wanted to pretend nothing was wrong and slip away, but saw the person running in front pointing at him: "This one too! Hit!"

  Chen Yuan cursed loudly: "Damn it, can those who stand still also fight?"

  He said so with his mouth, but his feet didn't dare stay still. Now the only way for him is to rush back into the house again.

  After entering the house, several people who were watching the gambling scene had already been knocked to the ground by Yelü Lüjine and his guards due to their small number. Chen Yuan rushed in panting and immediately charged in front of Yelü Hongji: "Don't be afraid! I'm here."

  The guard with the surname Xiao smiled and said: "You're coming after everything has been settled?"

  As soon as the words fell, those dozens of people outside had already rushed in. The guards didn't have time to say much and were busy fighting again.

  Nowhere is safe, only in front of Yelü Hongji it's relatively stable, because the princess and the guards will all protect him, standing behind him should be fine, right?

  Chen Yuan tightly hugged Yelü Hongji: "The prince doesn't need to be afraid, I'm here to protect you."

  Yelü Hongji raised his head: "Chen Shimei, can you stop hiding behind me and protecting me?"

  Just as they were talking, a guy broke through the interception of the four guards and swung his stick towards Yelü Hongji and others. Yelü Hongji had also learned some boxing skills, but unfortunately he was still young and always at a disadvantage in terms of strength.

  Moreover, he had almost zero experience in fighting, and after only two blocks, the wooden stick in his hand was smashed flying, but Chen Yuan suddenly appeared from behind him, swung a stool and hit it over.

  He was caught off guard by Chen Yuan's sudden punch, and before he could react, he was sent stumbling backward several steps. Then, a guard knocked him to the ground with one blow.

  Chen Yuan chuckled: "Your Highness, look at me from the back, I can guarantee that no one will sneak up on me, and I can also sneak up on the enemy in front of me. This position is the best."

  Although those thugs were numerous, these four men were all selected by Yelü Chucai from the top masters within the imperial palace. Judging from their appearance, if they didn't need to split into two groups to protect Yelü Hongji's safety, it was uncertain whether the thugs would have the upper hand.

  After a while, many people lay down in the house, and more than 20 thugs didn't dare to come up again. At this time, the one surnamed Xiao said: "Everyone, I also often come here to play, today's affairs have offended many! Now please let us out first, I, Xiao Changbai, keep my word, tomorrow I will definitely come to give you an explanation!"

  More than 20 people looked at me, I looked back, and suddenly the leader stood up and said: "Bullshit! You overturned the table, injured so many of us, and let you go like this? How can we show our faces in the future?! Brothers, watch the door, I'll call someone again!"

  Chen Yuan knew that these people were like the local hooligans of his own generation - they weren't particularly formidable, but if you stirred up trouble on their turf, it was by no means easy to extricate yourself. They had a lot of people, and basically had their own communication methods, and could quickly contact all the people they knew, as well as the people those people knew, who would come rushing over to help them out.

  If he is allowed to go out and shout for help, things will not be so easy to settle.

  Chen Yuan immediately asked a question in Yelü Hongji's ear: "Prince, do you have any tokens on your body? Something that would identify you at a glance?"

  Yelü Lüjing heard this and hastily turned his head: "What are you doing? If Father Emperor finds out that Hongji has come out to cause trouble, it will be disastrous!"

  "Princess! If they call people over and make a big fuss about it, is it possible that the Emperor won't find out?"

  Yelü Lüjing heard this and was also at a loss for what to do. In the end, he took out his own waist card: "I'll go tell them!"

  Chen Yuan thought to himself, "These two siblings are inexperienced and naive, it's strange if they can even get the job done."

  "Here, take this waist badge: I'll go instead."

  At this time, the leader of the thugs happened to be going out, and Chen Yuan suddenly raised his voice and shouted loudly: "Wait!"

  A group of thugs were momentarily stunned, Chen Yuan stepped forward, slowly walking towards the leader.

  Although the steps were steady, his heart was racing with anxiety. He silently invoked all the gods he knew to protect him as he walked safely past these people.

  Those thugs were actually already chilled to the bone at this time, they still maintained a strong appearance, but in their hearts they had lost their courage and couldn't wait for the matter to end early. So when Chen Yuan walked through them, no one made a move.

  This made Chen Yuan let out a long sigh of relief and gained a few more points of confidence.

  He put the princess's waist card in front of the leader of the thugs and asked, "Brother, do you recognize this?"

  The waist plaque is made of pure gold, with eleven green dragons carved on it. The carving of the green dragon is vivid and lifelike, and at a glance, you can tell that only the best craftsmen have such skills.

  The man's face changed immediately, he recognized this kind of waist card, had seen it before. Although the number of dragons on the waist card was different, but the identity they wanted to express was the same, and this identity was one that even his backstage boss dared not provoke.

  Looking at his suddenly disappearing aura, and the face that had turned somewhat pale in an instant, Chen Yuan wrapped his arms around his neck, and to his surprise, the leader of the thugs did not resist.

  "Sir, I'm so sorry for not recognizing you earlier. Please forgive me and don't bother with the likes of us beggars!"

  The leader's voice was very small, but Chen Yuan sounded even more satisfied.

  He pointed inward with his hand: "Today I accidentally knocked over their table, they asked us to give an explanation, saying, how should I explain it properly?"

  "Who's that? Who said you knocked over the table? I think it was just an accident, it fell over by itself after a long time. You weren't hurt, were you?"

  Chen Yuan's face finally broke into a smile: "Do you know those two guards? Tomorrow, I'll have them bring some medical expenses over to your injured brother. As for how things should be resolved, if you have any opinions, you can have them pass on the message to me."

  The boss obviously very much a gangster: "You see what you said, what's there to solve? Nothing today, just a little misunderstanding."

  It all ended like that, and the whole fight happened in a way that no one expected, and it ended just as unexpectedly.

  That leader led the remaining able-bodied men to escort Chen Yuan and others out of the casino, with a very respectful attitude, which made neither Yelü Hongji nor Yelü Lüjing expect.
