Chapter 39: King's Gamble
The man in front of him waved his hand slightly, and someone immediately came forward respectfully, presenting an exquisite pistol with both hands.
He took the pistol, looked at it carefully, a hint of excitement flashed in his eyes, and he gently stroked the gun body, as if feeling its power and temperature, then nodded with satisfaction.
"This gun has just been developed and this is the first time it has been used."
"Although it doesn't look special, its power lies in..."
He picked up the gun and played with it casually in his hand, then slowly placed the muzzle against Yuying's heart.
"One shot can kill anyone instantly."
"..."
Huh...what kind of person?
His special reminder made Yuying even more certain that this king might also be a wrong existence like them?
Through the thin cloth, Yuying could feel the unique cool touch of the metal gun and the power of the bullet ready to be fired from the muzzle.
She looked seriously at the man who was so close to her. His expression was still casual and unrestrained, and his eyes were still full of tenderness as he looked at her, as if the gun against her heart was not held by him.
Someone at the side couldn't wait to speak up: "Then let's get started. As I said just now, the Queen will participate in this gambling game on behalf of Your Highness."
"?"
How could she gamble?
Is it that the reason why she dressed up beautifully today is to be killed?
Yuying looked at the man in front of her with some disbelief for confirmation.
"Baby, if you don't have some extraordinary skills and courage, you are not qualified to be my woman."
"If you lose, you can only try harder in the next life."
After saying that, he pushed the gun against her heart a little harder.
"..."
Yuying looked at him inquiringly, the man didn't look like he was joking at all.
The hypocritical king just pinched her cheek lovingly and gently soothed her: "Don't be nervous, baby, don't you like this kind of exciting game?"
"I am..."
“It’s exciting just thinking about it.”
Yuying could clearly feel that every word he said was from the excitement in his heart. This man was too cruel and ruthless. She was sure that if she lost, the bullets in this gun would definitely be for her.
This madness reminded her of the "Jingmi" she met in the arena.
If it really comes to the last moment, Yu Ying's eyes darkened. No matter who he is, she doesn't mind sending the king to hell with her own hands.
"There's a 50% chance that I'll kill my lover with my own hands. The feeling of regret is so exciting!"
The man in front of him had become mentally distorted, as if every word that came out of his mouth was tainted with the smell of blood.
Before the game started, Yuying could already feel the rusty and bloody smell filling the room.
He spun the gun in his hand and slammed it on the table.
"Look at my baby's nervous expression. It seems that she doesn't understand the rules of the game. Do you mind if I explain it to her?"
Chen Lao said in doubt: "Your Highness, I think it is too hasty to use gambling to decide such an important matter!"
Mr. Fang on the side immediately retorted: "Mr. Chen is wrong. I think this method is quite novel."
"Can……"
Mr. Chen wanted to say something, but Mr. Fang interrupted him immediately, "I advise Mr. Chen not to worry so much, as long as the final result is what we want, isn't that enough?"
"…Your Highness, please do as you please."
They were talking to each other, and Yuying felt like a fish on the chopping board, waiting to be slaughtered.
The king squeezed her side hard, bringing Yuying back from her thoughts.
"Baby, I'm going to tell you the rules of the game, you have to listen carefully."
King's Game Explanation:
The game uses a standard deck of playing cards, including 8, 9, 10, J, Q, K, A, spades, hearts, clubs, and diamonds, for a total of 28 cards.
The dealer will deal five cards in each round, and the winner will be determined by the arrangement, combination, points and suit of the five cards.
At the beginning of the game, each player will be dealt a hole card, which is a hidden card.
After the second card is dealt, the player with the higher odds decides the amount of the bet. Others have the right to choose "call", "raise" or "give up". When all five cards are dealt, each player turns over all their hole cards for comparison.
Following the bet means continuing to play, or you can increase the bet. If you feel that you have little chance of winning, you can choose to give up and wait for the game to end. The chips you have previously followed cannot be retrieved.
The last round is the key to the game. In this round, players can bet all the chips they have not given up and the maximum chips they can afford. After all bettors have expressed their views on their bets, they can reveal their cards to decide the winner.
At this time, the person with the highest card can win all the chips on the table.

"Straight Flush: Five consecutive cards of the same suit"
"Full House: Three cards of the same rank plus a pair of cards of another rank"

"No Pair: Cards that cannot be arranged into the above combination are determined by the points."
If the cards are the same, the winner is determined by numbers and suits (numbers take precedence).
"This is roughly how the game is played. Do you understand?"
She understood that this game involves both skill and a certain amount of luck. It requires a good memory, comprehensive judgment, calm analytical ability, and a bit of luck.
"Baby, you better try harder."
"Although shooting your loved one sounds exciting."
He stroked Shang Yuying's cheek and whispered softly, "But my life will be boring without you."
The places he touched gave Yuying goosebumps. He was obviously a ruthless person at heart, but he had to pretend to be a sentimental person.
There was no trace of pity in his eyes, as they had been completely overwhelmed by the excitement and excitement.
"I think you'd better put me down first. It's very inconvenient for me if you do this."
Hearing this, he released his hands from Yuying's waist and made a gesture of invitation.
As soon as Yuying stood up, she felt a warm palm patting her butt!
He gritted his teeth and turned back to look at the culprit of the hand, who was smiling happily.
“This is an encouragement to give you love.”
"..."
My mentality is really about to explode!
But I can only bear it!
Yuying imagined in her mind that she would slap him a few times in the face. Her expression couldn't help but turn ugly, and she sat down next to him with hatred.
Chen Lao's face was also livid: What a scourge to the nation! She must be deposed!
Mr. Fang smiled but said nothing: "..."
"I heard that Elder Chen and Elder Fang are both here. I'm afraid I'm too late."
This voice sounds familiar—
Yuying turned around when she heard the voice and saw that it was Zheng Shanhui!
"The queen is here too."
She didn't seem surprised at all by her own existence.
Mr. Fang narrowed his eyes and said calmly, "What wind brought you here, High Priest?"
Zheng Shanhui is indeed the high priest.
But she didn't seem surprised at all to see me. Could it be that she didn't see clearly who the person was that night?
"It was His Highness who asked me to come here to be a witness."
"But your Majesty..."
"Why are you looking at me like that?"
"nothing."
Yuying calmly withdrew his gaze from her. It was great that Zheng Shanhui didn't notice that it was her that night.
Don't let her notice anything.
"In that case, let the gambling begin."
Zheng Shanhui clapped her hands, and immediately someone came in with several large suitcases and placed them in front of Yuying, Mr. Chen and Mr. Fang respectively.
"There are 1200 million in these boxes, 400 million per person. These are your chips. This gambling game is divided into three rounds. Whoever has the most chips at the end of the three rounds will be the winner."
"If any of you have lost all your chips before three rounds, then end the game early."
"If you have no objection, please let the dealer start dealing the cards."
"Wait a moment!"
Mr. Chen raised his hand to interrupt the gambling.
"Mr. Chen, do you have anything else to say?"
"Forgive me for not knowing anything about chess and card games. Mr. Fang and I are on the same page. We will prosper together and suffer together."
Zheng Shanhui raised her red lips, looked at Mr. Fang and asked, "Do you have any objection, Mr. Fang?"
"Of course I have no objection. I am honored that Mr. Chen trusts me so much."
"Very good, then divide Mr. Chen's chips between Queen and Mr. Fang. Each of you now has 600 million chips."
"Now, please ask the dealer to start dealing the cards."
Zheng Shanhui stood next to the king, and the dealer came forward and spread out a deck of cards with professional techniques.
The dealer dealt a hole card and an open card and placed them in front of Yuying and Mr. Fang respectively.
Mr. Fang looked at his own cards cautiously without any expression. His open card was the J of Diamonds.
Yuying's open card is the 8 of Hearts. She carefully picked up the cards, covered her hidden card with the open card, and slowly moved it to see what her hole card was.
The hole card is the King of Clubs.
After reading it, they put the cards down. Now Mr. Fang's open card is the J of Diamonds, and Yuying's open card is the 8 of Hearts. According to the rules, Mr. Fang will make the first bet.
"5 million!"
Ms. Fang looked very shrewd, so she must have a very good hole card. However, her hole card, the King of clubs, did not look like it could form a very large hand with the Eight of Hearts.
So--
"Five million, follow."
Yuying easily put out 5 to follow the bet. There was no reason for him to admit defeat right at the beginning, as he still had three cards.
The dealer deals the third face-up card.
Mr. Fang's current hand count is: unknown, Jack of Diamonds, Queen of Spades.
The cards Yuying currently has are: King of Clubs, Eight of Hearts, Jack of Hearts.
Neither player is prepared to raise the bet, and the dealer deals the fourth face-up card.
Yuying's fourth open card is the Ace of Hearts, and Fang Lao's fourth open card is the Queen of Diamonds, forming a pair.
Yuying has three unconnected hearts on her hand, and her hidden card is the King of clubs. Mr. Fang doesn't know this. If the fifth card is also a heart, you can create the illusion of a flush and make Mr. Fang give up raising the bet.
Old Fang stared at Yu Ying and sneered: "It seems that God is very kind to me today. It would be a shame to not raise the bet on such a good hand."
"20, raise the bet!"
This old woman is very shrewd. She says that she has good cards, but it is very likely a trick to lure the enemy. Her current cards are scattered, and she only hopes that the last one will be a heart.
As long as it is a heart, she can pretend to have a flush, so that she can have the opportunity to force the opponent to fold. From his conversation just now, we can know that he is a cautious person.
As long as I act like I'm sure to win, there's a high chance that he won't follow me.
But if the fifth card is no longer a heart, the biggest card in her hand is now an A, and only the next card can suppress his pair of Qs.
"50, raise the bet!"
"..."
As expected, as soon as Yu Ying said this, the old man's face changed and he chose not to continue raising the bet.
Mr. Fang narrowed his eyes and looked at her warily: "The queen seems to be very confident in her cards."
Yu Ying smiled flawlessly: "You don't have a heart on your hand, and I have three cards that can bet on a flush, why not give it a try."
The dealer deals the last card.
Yuying's last card is the 9 of Hearts!
Mr. Fang's current hand count is: unknown, Jack of Diamonds, Queen of Spades, Queen of Diamonds, Ace of Spades.
The cards she has now are -
King of clubs, 8 of hearts, Jack of hearts, Ace of hearts, 9 of hearts.
As for the cards of both sides, one of Mr. Fang’s cards is unknown, but judging from the cards, it seems that Yuying’s cards are better, but in fact, Mr. Fang’s cards are better.
No matter what Mr. Fang's hole cards were, he already had a pair to guarantee his bottom line, which had already overwhelmed her. Her cards looked like a flush on the surface, but were actually a loose deck.
Because they don't know that their hidden card is the King of Clubs, Yuying only needs to show that her hidden card is a Heart. As long as she can trick Mr. Fang into not daring to raise the bet and folding the cards, she will win.
But when raising the bet, you also have to consider your own chips. Whether you can win this round depends on whether Mr. Fang follows the bet, so you still have to keep some chips in case the game ends in the first round.
Judging from the last card, her cards are bigger than Mr. Fang's.
Yuying chose to raise the bet by 100 million.
She looked at him provocatively: "How about it, Mr. Fang, do you dare to follow me?"
Mr. Fang stared at her closely, while Yuying looked fearless.
Time passed second by second, and Mr. Fang was still hesitating whether to follow or not. He stared at Yuying, trying to figure out what she was planning.
Yu Ying chuckled, looking very relaxed, "If Mr. Fang doesn't make a decision, should it be considered as an automatic fold?"
"Hold on."
The dealer was about to speak but was interrupted by Mr. Fang.
Mr. Fang raised a sly smile and said, "The queen is such a good actress."
"If it weren't for the queen's last words, I might have folded my cards."
"You are still too young, Queen. You haven't done enough to pretend to be profound."
"I'll follow."
Launched 300 million.
"!"
She didn't expect that this old fox would raise the bet so much. The chips she had left could no longer support her to continue raising the bet. If she continued to raise the bet, she would be KO'd in the first round!
Yu Ying did not look flustered, instead she laughed once again, "Mr. Fang is really old but not old at heart. I admit defeat in this round, but how can you be so sure that I have lost based on just one sentence?"
Mr. Fang laughed expressionlessly, "Your Majesty, you are too kind. I have just seen many different kinds of people in the political arena, and I have learned some skills in observing people's expressions."
"But I was almost fooled by your acting skills just now, Queen. Fortunately, you finally lost your temper and spoke first."
He stared at Yuying meaningfully, "You know, the one who is sure to win likes to see the other person suffer when he is hesitant."
Haha, this old fox has a lot of tricks when talking.
"On this alone?"
"of course not."
"I have lived for decades and never believed that God would favor one person too much."
As he spoke, Mr. Fang revealed his last trump card.
10 of hearts!
No wonder he didn't believe it. There were only seven hearts in total, and he had one. If he had five, the probability would be so small that it was unbelievable.
In the first game, Mr. Fang won.
The king clapped his hands slowly and gracefully, praising sincerely, "This is a wonderful game."
"Baby, you played great this round. There are two more rounds to go. Don't worry."
