Hold the thick thighs tightly [My father is a traitor]

Chapter 310 Everyone is a Gambler

At this time, everyone on the dragon boat had gathered. Wang Lin also changed into a green short jacket and a yellow cloth band on his head. He sat awkwardly in the first row, listening to the dragon boat driver in front of him explaining the precautions. He had no idea that several younger generations in his family had already placed a heavy bet on him.

This was Wang Lin’s first time participating in a dragon boat race, so he naturally listened very carefully, fearing that he would miss any details.

At this moment, Pei Yi came walking with the two kids. They arrived just in time, just in time to catch up with the front dragon boat members finishing their explanation.

Before leaving, the former dragon boat member lowered his voice and reminded the newlyweds: "We are here only to please the Holy Heart. What the Holy Lord wants to see is nothing more than the interesting things between civil and military officials."

After saying that, he patted Wang Lin, who was sitting in the first row, on the shoulder, then turned and left the dragon boat.

Pei Yi looked at the man's receding back and frowned slightly.

The people behind Wang Lin fell silent because of these words, and everyone had a puzzled look on their faces.

"What does this mean? Don't you want us to win the game?" someone asked softly.

"Maybe... that's what it means." Another person guessed.

"If that's the case, what's the point of this game..." complained the third person.

For a moment, the atmosphere on the dragon boat became a little depressing, and everyone began to discuss among themselves.

Some people even took the initiative to ask Wang Lin: "Big guy, what do you think that person meant?"

Wang Lin was also scratching his head in confusion. The two sentences just now contradicted each other, but their meaning...

At this time, Pei Yi, who was standing aside, shouted, "Brother Lin..."

Wang Lin then noticed Pei Yi's arrival and immediately responded happily, "Ayi, why are you here?"

Pei Yi smiled and replied, "Of course it depends on how well Brother Linzi prepares. I just borrowed 1,000 taels from Brother Shunzi at the betting booth over there to bet on you winning."

Wang Lin:......

"Uncle Lin, I've put all the fifty taels my parents earned on the bet." Lin Yinhu also said. "GunGun has also taken out the money he has on him."

Wang Gungun nodded slightly guiltily. One or two is also love.

Wang Lin, who had originally participated just out of interest, suddenly felt as if there were three mountains above his head and the pressure doubled.

The result was not over yet. With her mother's consent, little Yining also dragged Yu Ke to find Wang Lin.

As if she had made an agreement with Pei Yi, she spoke as soon as she saw him, "Second Uncle, I just borrowed two thousand taels from Sister Yu Ke to bet on you to win. Second Uncle, you must win!"

Yu Ke smiled secretly and said, "I am also very optimistic about Uncle Lin Er. I bet one hundred taels."

Two more mountains pressed down on Wang Lin's shoulders, nearly causing him to fall off the dragon boat. He looked at the five children who came to share the "good" news with him, and asked foolishly, "If I can't win, will I not get the money back?"

The little ones nodded as a matter of course.

Wang Lin:......

Little Yining squatted on the shore and reminded him mischievously, "I know Second Uncle will win. If he doesn't win, you won't be able to go back to Dali Temple."

Wang Lin: ...Oh no, I just forgot about this.

As it turns out, Wang Lin loves his job at Dali Temple.

So, Xiao Yining saw Wang Lin turning on the red-hot mode, holding up the wooden paddle on the dragon boat, shouting "I will win", with a loud voice that immediately made the others on the dragon boat abandon other thoughts and follow suit.

The encouragement was quite successful and the little ones left contentedly.

The emperor on the drum tower looked at the excited Wang Lin below, and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly, "This is interesting."

He glanced at Pei Dafu who had returned and praised him, "Well done!"

Pei Dafu lowered his eyebrows and looked submissive, as if he was not the one being praised. He stepped forward and asked, "Your Majesty, the auspicious time is coming soon. Do you think..."

"let's start!"

Sheng Jingchen nodded slightly and took the chain from the beastman. The tiger beside him slowly stood up and followed his master to the fence. Then he let out an earth-shaking roar, the sound was long and made people feel afraid.

The people on the opposite side of the river suddenly fell silent and turned their eyes towards the Drum Tower. They saw the emperor and a mighty white tiger standing side by side on the Drum Tower. The scene was extremely shocking.

At this moment, someone shouted, "Long live the emperor..."

The people on the other side of the river immediately knelt down on the ground and shouted in unison, "Long live the emperor..."

The cheers spread like a tide, quickly spreading to every corner of Yanjing City.

Sheng Jingchen didn't move his brows. He solemnly picked up the drumstick and struck it hard on the ten-foot-high Heaven-shaking Drum.

The drums sounded like thunder, resounding through the sky.

Immediately afterwards, the sound of stirring drums rang out from below, which was magnificent.

At the same time, a huge gong was moved to the bridgehead and the dragon boat race officially kicked off.

This opening ceremony completely broadened Xiao Yining's horizons.

It turns out that being there in person is always more exciting than seeing it on TV.

Wan Niang looked at her excited daughter in her arms and said, "From now on, I will bring you here every year."

Xiao Yining nodded happily.

Both of them tacitly ignored the old man who was far away in the North City, working hard for his family.

Yu Ke, who was standing by, also said very generously, "These three thousand taels are really worth it. I will come to see it every year."

Mother and daughter: ...

The world of the rich cannot be understood by those who grew up in poverty.

The two of them ignored this at the same time.

Wan Niang changed the subject and said, "I just heard from the official lady next to me that there are two dragon boat races. The first race has three boats, and the second race has ten boats."

The two kids nodded in sudden realization, it turned out that these three ships were appetizers.

Soon, the auspicious time that everyone had been waiting for finally arrived.

As the big gong was struck, the three dragon boats flew away like arrows accompanied by shouts.

This scene immediately excited the spectators and they all cheered loudly.

But at this moment, something strange happened. The dragon boat of the military team went off course and crashed into the dragon boat of the civil service team, causing it to capsize.

The officials on the dragon boat also fell into the water like dumplings, shouting for help, looking extremely embarrassed.

The civilian team squeezed in the middle was not affected at all. The leader used a paddle to break a gap and rushed out with unstoppable force.

Always put competition first and friendship second.

Everyone:...

Little Yining was also frightened by this sudden change, and quickly raised his head to look at his uncle who had not yet entered, only to see that his uncle remained calm and had a smile on his face.

It was a shocking opening, a hilarious beginning, but my uncle wasn't angry at all, he is worthy of being the one sitting on the dragon throne.

Xiao Yining admired him in his heart, then retracted his gaze and looked at the river again.

The farce was not over yet. The military team had just finally got the direction right when an accident happened on the dragon boat of the civilian team. The drummer who was supposed to boost morale got so upset for some reason that he jumped into the river as if there was no one he cared about in the world anymore.

Xiao Yining: ...It turns out that the makeshift team formed temporarily is not good enough.

Sheng Jingchen, who was on the drum tower, saw this scene and smiled even more deeply. He raised his eyebrows and said, "I have been in the palace for a long time... Everyone treats me as a tyrant and makes fun of me."

He sneered, then disappeared from everyone's sight and returned to the Drum Tower.
