Chapter Thirty-Eight: Gambling

Yipin was postponed backwards, this time the hall was just a formality, Song Yang didn't think about what to do today, let alone confront Jingtai. The difference in strength between the two sides is too far, and he can clearly distinguish what is revenge and what is death.

Song Yang didn't provoke, but Jingtai was looking for trouble... Perhaps the natural opponent has long been destined to meet will not be peaceful.

Jingtai gave Song Yang 'what to say about no guilt', but he did not give him 'no guilt if he didn't say anything'; talking about his own way of destroying the country on someone else's golden palace, how could the emperor in the Nanli Phoenix Palace spare Song Yang. The front and back are dead ends. If Song Yang wants to live, he can only 'fight with you'.

…… Looking through the crown, Jingtai looked directly at Song Yang.

Song Yang had just been given the 'head of the palace', and when he met Jingtai's gaze, he gave him a smile, relaxed, happy, and amiable.

Jingtai is crazy, but he is not really crazy, he dares not to invite Nanli to the palace for a banquet without paying attention to his demeanor, but he can't be untrustworthy in front of the envoys of various countries and immediately punish Song Yang...... After looking at each other for a moment, Jingtai waved his hand and retreated from the ministers, and nodded to Song Yang: "If Nan Li uses swords and soldiers without permission, it will indeed cause unwarranted disasters, just understand this truth." ”

Only chasing the literal meaning, ignoring the hidden words, Jingtai turned the page lightly, but he was no longer interested in pursuing the skills of several other Nan Li Qi scholars, so he changed the conversation: "When you enter the palace, you should see that the high platform has risen, and thousands of people are looking forward to it... The five countries of Middle-earth each choose the best warriors, and they are better than the best in the world. ”

Finally mentioned the topic, the envoys of various countries and the spirit of the samurai were all lifted, but Jingtai's tone was not in a hurry, and there was no excitement: "The world learns from each other, the world is a product, this is a grand event that has never been seen in Middle-earth, but I think... A little stingy. is only about fighting and competing, but there are no decent colored heads, and what is the difference between it and the tearing and fighting of the people and village women? ”

Speaking of this, Jingtai smiled: "I want to ask you, do you want to gamble on a game?" At the same time, he didn't forget to take care of Nanli, and turned his head to Hu Dada: "Nanli didn't send a warrior, so you don't need to put bets in." ”

Lord Hu was relieved, it didn't matter how the other countries gambled, as long as they didn't pay attention to anything.

Jingtai leaned forward slightly, turned his gaze back to the envoys of Tubo, Dog Rong and other powerful countries, and continued to smile: "That's what I think, the bet, it's probably like that, you can see if it's okay." As he spoke, he stretched out his finger and counted as he thought: "Three million pieces of money, 100,000 pieces of silk, and 10,000 head of cattle, sheep and horses." ”

After thinking about it, he said to the Uighur envoys: "If you have few cattle and sheep, you can use camels to fill the number, and one camel is counted as six sheep or two oxen...... Whether it's suitable or not, I don't know, and it's easy to say when I discuss this later. ”

Three million yuan is three million taels of silver, which is less than Nanli's annual income for a year, and such a big bet Feng Long would not dare to bet no matter what, so Lord Hu in the Yan Palace also felt more and more that it was a wise idea for him to propose the selection of 'Qishi' to go to the ring, and now he just needs to watch the play.

But for Dayan, this bet is just a year's income, although it is not a decimal, but it can be taken as much as possible. The same is true for the other three powers, the envoys in the Golden Palace did not hesitate too much, such a price does not need to go back to China to ask for instructions, they can make their own decisions by gritting their teeth.

The Tibetan envoy said that he had been beaten by the Uighurs before, and he was eager to hurry up and let his warriors come to power to take revenge, and he was the first to speak: "This bet has been answered, and the word is ......."

Just as he was halfway through speaking, Jingtai waved his hand to interrupt and said with a smile: "Don't be anxious, I haven't finished talking yet, the bets are not only those yellow and white vulgar things, you are all here on behalf of the emperor of your country, it is a royal gamble, how can you not gamble on the country!" ”

The Tibetan envoy was stunned for a moment, and blurted out: "Jiangshan? How to bet"

Jingtai stretched out his hand suddenly, slapped the armrest of the dragon chair heavily, and made a crisp sound: "Just bet on your Tianguan and Broken Corner Cliff in Tubo!" The drink was loud, and Jingtai turned his gaze again, pointing to the Dog Rong envoy: "Bet on your Baitou Mountain and Wind and Sand Pass!" ”

Next, he pointed to the Uighurs: "And your city of fire, the valley of the crescent moon." ”

Each of the places he said, like the Nanli Folding Bridge Pass, is an important reliance on the border gates of various countries and blocking the invasion of other countries, and these Xiongguan are not all bordering Yan, but for their own country, they are undoubtedly as important as eyeballs.

Jingtai straightened up, leaned into the dragon chair, and this time he stretched out his hand and pointed to his nose: "Yan Guo's bet is no exception, I took out the two levels of Yanyun and Jiayu, and added one more for nothing...... Eye City! Haha, you've taken advantage. ”

As soon as these words came out, the Golden Palace, which was already agitated, was in an uproar, these bets didn't even know in advance the important ministers of Yan Kingdom, a ring, he actually wanted to bet on the border pass, and added a Kyoto for nothing... Let's not talk about whether the bet will succeed or not, and whether the gambling will be bad after the gamble, Jingtai's current proposal alone is enough to shock the world.

But Jingtai wants to gamble more than that: "Now that there is a country in the bet, why not add another true dragon bloodline?" Under my knees, from the eldest prince who has long been an adult to the old nineteen who have not yet reached the full moon, there are a total of seventeen sons who are alive, and one is also in this note! It's up to you to choose which one! As soon as the words fell, the Golden Palace, which had just been noisy, suddenly fell silent, everyone knew that Jingtai was crazy, but no one knew that he was crazy, the border pass, the capital, and a prince were all thrown into the bet by him!

Seeing that everyone in the palace was stunned, Jing Tai laughed violently, his eyes were paranoid and his expression was crazy, and he stretched out his hand to pass the Tubo, Dog Rong, and Uighur envoys one by one, and his tone was arrogant: "I use my own dragon son to bet on your family's emperor, do you dare to respond?" Do you dare to bet?! ”

Who would dare to respond?

Which courtier dares to gamble for the emperor... Bet on the son?

The envoys of the Three Kingdoms were stunned on the spot, and even Lord Hu, who was out of the way, was stunned, an important minister of Yan State, carefully stepped on half a step, and was about to open his mouth to persuade him, Jingtai suddenly stretched out his hand to him: "Say a word, punish the nine clans!" ”

After drinking, Jingtai laughed again, and said to the eunuch standing in front of him: "Announce it, I want the people of Jingcheng to know my bet." ”

…… The news spread outside the palace in a blink of an eye, and when Emperor Yan's bet was announced one by one, the exclamations were higher than once, and finally turned into a noisy shout, and everyone was very excited to discuss the matter.

Of course, it is unexpected, it is true that I feel that I am crazy, but the arrogance in this madness is not a kind of hysterical 'excitement', and someone asked the eunuch in a loud voice: "May I ask my father-in-law, should the barbarians make a bet?" ”

The eunuch of the Xuan Shi obviously had cultivation, and when he heard this, he responded: "Long live is asking them on the Golden Palace at this moment: Dare... Can't?! After speaking, he raised his voice again, condensed all his cultivation, blushed and shouted: "Do you dare?" ”

In the crowd, there were not only dark lines arranged by the imperial court, but also people with good deeds, who shouted and repeated in unison in laughter...... There are more and more people who are emotionally infected and shouting, and in the blink of an eye, they converge into a huge wave of voice, wave after wave, and there are only three words back and forth: dare or not? Don't dare!

Thousands of people clamored, the loud noise passed through the palace gates, straight to the golden palace, Jingtai was high, and he laughed loudly.

After such a long time, he returned to normal, the smile in his eyes was still there, and he looked at the envoys of the Three Kingdoms: "Go back to your country to ask your emperor, I am waiting for you." Today, the matter has been postponed to autumn, and four months of hard work is enough news to return. This matter is not forced, if you don't gamble, please lead the team back to China, don't dare to gamble on a product, how to talk about a product. ”

The envoys of the three kingdoms nodded one after another, but Song Yang pondered in his heart if he leaked the real reason for Yan Guo's postponement of the first product to other countries in advance...... Soon he shook his head. The bet proposed by Jingtai is not something that the courtiers dare to accept at all, even if they are sure of victory, no one dares to agree on the spot for the monarch, so naturally there is no talk of an immediate competition.

And Jingtai turned his eyes to look at Lord Hu again: "If Lord Hu can stay, it is best to wait for the autumn to climb the platform again... I am still waiting and looking forward to seeing the miraculous abilities of all of you again at that time. ”

Anyway, there is no need to gamble, you can still be proud of Nanli on stage, of course Lord Hu nodded and agreed.

The final resolution of the palace was transmitted outside the palace, and the chorus of shouts of 'dare not dare' suddenly turned into a surge of cheers, none of the barbarians dared to agree on the spot, and they all had to go back to ask the master, and the normal thing fell in the eyes of the people of Eye City, and it had already become a 'show of weakness', otherwise why didn't you dare to agree on the spot and take the stage to compete now.

This matter spread all over the city in a blink of an eye, and it became a hot topic in the market, and the postponement of a product for no reason, which was originally a discouraged thing, was turned into an inspiring and powerful event by Jingtai's crazy words. And the emperor dares to make a heavy bet, there is no doubt that he will win, and the Yan on the top should have long been subdued by the barbarians.

Above the golden hall, after a few more innocuous nonsense, Jingtai waved his hand and motioned for everyone to disperse, and he himself got up and walked to the apse. From beginning to end, Song Yang's eyes were always on him, but Jingtai never looked at Song Yang again. In his eyes, there is no such person as Song Yang at all.

As soon as he turned into the apse, Jingtai frowned, today it was not as before, as soon as he came back, there was a little eunuch to greet him, Jingtai turned his eyes and saw that the little eunuch on duty was not far away, sitting on the embroidery pier in a daze.

Jingtai was in a good mood, didn't open his mouth to punish, and said with a smile: "Little worm, what do you want?" Homesick? ”

This little eunuch is the successor of Xiao Douzi who was killed, ten years old, smart and cute, with a small hemorrhoid on the peak of his eyebrows, at first glance it seems that a small insect has fallen up, so Jingtai gave him a nickname, and usually calls him a little worm.

The little insect woke up in shock and hurriedly came forward: "It is a blessing for a slave to be able to serve long live, and the slave is homesick." It is... It's just that after listening to the bet of the Long Live Lord, my heart was pounding with fright, so I lost my mind. ”

Jingtai was even more interested, and while untying the crown and removing the collar, he said: "I didn't bet on you, what are you afraid of?" ”

The little insect had been with the emperor for a short time, and he couldn't let go, so he stammered and responded: "The slave is not afraid, but he heard that he is gambling money, gambling on the country, and gambling on the prince... The slave was shocked by the heroism of the Long Live Lord. ”

Jingtai Longyan was happy, and laughed: "It's not just you, those envoys to the court, which one is not standing in the court?" I was so happy that I almost blurted out: Add another bet and use my queen to bet on the barbarian mother! ”

The little insect was startled, and hurriedly caught the crown, collar and other trivial things that the emperor had removed, and did not dare to speak again. After laughing, Jingtai frowned, pondered carefully for a long time, and finally sighed and muttered: "Mother Yi world... You really can't gamble on this. ”

As he spoke, he shook his head, as if he regretted not being able to bet on his wife.
