Chapter 512: A Competitive Game
Since Emperor Yongshun had good luck and got the three of spades, he played first. Under Sheng Zhen's guidance, Emperor Yongshun played the first card smoothly.
In the next few rounds of games, Emperor Yongshun gradually became familiar with the changes and strategies of the game and could play cards independently without Sheng Zhen's guidance.
"Playing fast is to try every possible way to play more cards, just like when we play chess, the goal is to win. Only by striving to get to the top can we have the right to deal cards and be one step ahead of others.
Playing fast running also requires skills. If you can catch the cards played by others, you must catch them, even if it will ruin your own good hand.
So when we play, we must find ways to destroy other people's cards so that we can win." Sheng Zhen gave instructions and shared his experience with everyone.
Emperor Yongshun and the others nodded, indicating that they understood. Under Sheng Zhen's guidance, they kept trying different strategies and techniques, striving to improve their card skills.
The whole room was filled with laughter and an exciting atmosphere, and everyone was immersed in this interesting game.
After a few rounds, some ministers were eager to try, unable to suppress their inner urge and wanted to play a few rounds themselves.
One of the ministers had a sharp eye and noticed that the table next to them had the same configuration, so he enthusiastically invited the other two to go to the table next to them.
With the precedent of the first table, the second and third table soon appeared... When everyone felt that they had mastered the skills, they agreed to form groups of two and go to practice.
Soon, the five or six tables in the side room were filled. The ministers were extremely excited, and everyone's face was filled with confidence and satisfaction. They thought they had learned a great skill.
At the same time, in the next room, Zheng Sisi and a few young sisters were leading a group of noble ladies to play mahjong happily.
Similarly, six tables were set up here, and the atmosphere here was even more lively than the running fast. From time to time, bursts of laughter came, and when they were excited, no one paid attention to the ladylike demeanor, and some people shouted excitedly.
"I won the game, hahahaha!"
"You make a mistake, and I win!"
"I win by myself! Haha, I'm so lucky!"
Such a lively scene made the people next door hear the sound clearly. Emperor Yongshun couldn't help but feel puzzled, frowned and said to the eunuch Mu Gonggong beside him: "Xiao Muzi, go and see who is making a loud noise over there?"
Sheng Zhen said, "Father, there's no need to go and see. It's Sisi and her friends playing mahjong next door."
"What is mahjong? Why have I never heard of it?" Emperor Yongshun asked curiously again.
"Mahjong, like running fast, is a competitive game," Sheng Zhen explained patiently.
"Is it more fun than running fast?" Emperor Yongshun asked.
Sheng Zhen was a little speechless. It seemed that his father was thinking about mahjong again. He still explained: "The playing method is different, the rules are also different, it depends on personal preference."
Emperor Yongshun looked at Duke Zheng Lao and Zhong Ruiyu who were drawing cards nearby and asked curiously, "You two also play mahjong?"
The two nodded truthfully and answered, "Yes!"
Emperor Yongshun pondered for a moment and asked, "Do you like to play Pao Kei or Mahjong?"
Duke Zheng smiled and replied, "Haha, as long as someone plays with me, I can play anything."
"I like playing mahjong. It requires broader thinking than running and is more fun." Zhong Ruiyu expressed his opinion.
After listening to their words, Emperor Yongshun became more interested in mahjong: "Why don't we play mahjong too?"
They looked at each other, and Duke Zheng said, "No problem, as long as the emperor likes it. But those are all women over there. How about Zhen'er go ask Sisi if she has any mahjong left, and we can bring a set over here to play."
Sheng Zhen nodded: "Okay, I'll go ask." After that, he turned and walked next door, looking for Zheng Sisi.
Emperor Yongshun kept his eyes on the door after Sheng Zhen left, muttering to himself, "Why has he not returned after such a long time? He is so slow."
In fact, they had just finished a game of cards, but Emperor Yongshun was so anxious that he felt that time was passing unusually slowly.
Not long after, Sheng Zhen came in carrying a box. Seeing this, Zhong Ruiyu smiled and said, "Since you have already got a good hand, just finish this round. It just so happens that I have a good hand. I have to win beautifully before I can end the game? Hehehe."
So he played a hand of airplane cards. However, to his surprise, Zheng Laoguogong actually had the same airplane card to follow.
Zhong Ruiyu widened his eyes and said in disbelief: "You can actually catch my cards? How is it possible that such a good card was caught by you?"
He went to look at the cards on the table to see if there was a mistake, but he still looked unwilling to accept it.
