Chapter 675: Out of the Old Thousand
These people can really do anything in order to make her embarrassed, and she really doesn't know what kind of enmity she has with them.
"Miss Cheng is lively and very compatible with me."
Looking at Cheng Suting, who blushed with anger but didn't dare to say anything, Cai Na scolded a waste in her heart, but said with a smile on her lips.
"The upbringing methods of women in Rongguo are different from those of women, and Miss Cheng San is better to be quiet."
For such a person who repeatedly provoked her, Murong Hui had long lost patience, and she naturally spoke politely.
Rong Guo is still very strict with women, so when this matter spreads, Cheng Suting will definitely be punished after she goes home, and if she pushes again, this matter will inevitably affect her future life.
Cheng Suting is not a fool, after listening to Murong Hui's words, her face turned white all of a sudden.
"I also went to visit the county lord of Wanyi a few days ago, and I originally wanted to invite her out today. It's just that Princess Ling is sick, and she can only fulfill her filial piety at home, so it is inconvenient to come. ”
At this time, Han Xiang on the side suddenly spoke, she smiled very naturally, but the meaning of this was very obvious, she wanted to remind Cheng Suting and everyone not to forget what she was doing today.
If they can't solve today's affairs, Lord Wanyi will definitely not let them go.
As soon as these words came out, the crowd, which was still a little commotionous, immediately quieted down, and looked at Murong Hui again, and Cheng Suting also calmed down a lot.
Murong Hui couldn't help but be a little curious, how did the county lord of Wanyi make these people listen to her?
"Where did it go? Princess Linghui, if you want to help your companion win back that hairpin, why don't you bet a few games with everyone? ”
It's just that she didn't want to think about it too much, so she listened to Cai Na, who was waiting impatiently, speak.
"It's okay to bet, but the things you bet on are naturally of the same price, in addition to the golden hairpin, what else do you plan to gamble with?"
As he spoke, Murong Hui had already withdrawn a pair of emerald purple jade bracelets on his wrists.
When everyone saw this pair of bracelets, they couldn't help but gasp.
This pair of bracelets was given to Murong Hui by Lin Yingxue yesterday, and she was specially asked to bring them today, which can also indirectly reflect Rong Guo's national strength.
After all, a purple jade bracelet of such a color is the whole world, and there are not a few pairs.
Everyone was silent for a moment, but Cheng Suting took out a piece of mutton fat jade from her arms, put it on the table and said: "Your Highness is expensive, we definitely don't have anything as good as her, it's better to get together together, otherwise we really don't deserve to gamble with Your Highness." ”
Han Xiang's face suddenly gloomy when he heard her words, and secretly scolded Cheng Suting for having no brains.
In this case, how can you rush to the front?
Cheng Suting glanced at her, snorted coldly in her heart, and said in her heart, they took the lead this time, if they can't afford to be big, why should people take out good things for you.
What Cheng Suting didn't know was that although Ruyang Bofu had a title, his descendants were not competitive, and there was only an empty shelf left.
Han Xiang's family is just a beautiful scenery on the surface, and he has to be frugal inside, so he has to curry favor with Ling Wangfu.
It's just that Han Xiang would never mention this kind of thing to others, she silently took off a piece of jade pendant from her waist and put it on the table.
This jade pendant is also her mother's dowry, and she is also difficult to ride a tiger this time.
I just hope that I can see Murong Hui lose a little miserably later, and it will not be in vain for her to waste such energy and do such a thing.
When the others saw this, they also put all the most valuable things on their bodies on the table.
Soon there were seven things on the table, including the golden hairpin, a total of eight things.
"What's the gambling method?"
Murong Hui looked at those things and sneered, she had seen Lin Yingxin and those big names of the Lady of Destiny before, although she had never played them, but she was no stranger to them.
"Guess the number of points, whoever has the big points, even if whoever wins, the three games will be won or lost."
Cheng Suting smiled and narrowed her eyes, but stepped aside and let out a girl wearing a pink dress with a red hairband wrapped around her head.
The girl had a round face, a warm smile, and looked gentle and amiable.
It's just that Murong Hui feels that she is very unfamiliar and seems to have never seen her.
"This is also Xu Qing's cousin, Xu Yao. Their house is close to the long house, and now they are also working as merchants, taking care of the affairs of the entire Xuguo Mansion. ”
Gao Ziyue obviously saw Murong Hui's puzzlement, so she opened her mouth to help introduce it.
Xu Yao was not annoyed when she heard the word merchant, but her eyes fluctuated a little, and she obviously cared.
After all, she is different from Gao Ziyue, she has also considered herself to be Miss Gonghou since she was a child.
It wasn't until she grew up that she knew that she was not as good as Xu Qing, who she had always looked down on.
Xu Qing's father was still admitted to the two rankings of Jinshi through his own efforts, and he could stand up as an official on his own.
But her father was not good at the imperial examination, and the whole family could only rely on the long house to live, which made her feel very unbalanced.
She didn't dare to compare with Xu Wen, so she vented this dissatisfaction on Xu Qing, so she helped to humiliate Xu Qing this time.
"Your Highness, the courtier's daughter can begin."
In front of everyone, she put the dice into the black vessel, quickly closed the lid, and shook it quickly.
I don't know if it's Murong Hui's sentence just now, the voice overshadowed the Kunqu opera singing next to him, and those who sang the opera around were silent and came over to watch the play.
As soon as they stopped, it was quiet, except for the sound of tinkling dice.
Clang......
After shaking for a moment, Xu Yao stopped, looked at Murong Hui and said, "Your Highness, guess." ”
"Big."
Murong Hui said, and pointed to the big side with his chin.
Xu Yao looked at Cheng Suting with a smile on her face.
Cheng Suting immediately spoke: "Small." ”
She smiled even more and took the lid off to show the count.
The people who often mixed on the overpass on the side all sneered, and anyone could see that Xu Yao had used a trick just now, and in their opinion, they were all very pediatric.
It's definitely enough to deal with these little girls who haven't seen anything and don't understand anything.
"Your Highness guessed wrong."
Inside the vessel are three dice, one with two dots and two with three dots.
Murong Hui didn't say anything, but stared at the vessel that filled the dice just now, and on the surface, there seemed to be nothing wrong with this thing.
But if you look closely, it's not hard to see that there's something wrong with this thing.
She has been learning music since she was a child, and her ear power has always been good, and the surroundings were very quiet just now, so Murong Hui clearly heard that when Xu Yao put down the utensils just now, she deliberately flicked the bottom of the utensils with her fingers.
After that, the dice in this vessel moved, indicating that she deliberately moved her hands and feet to let Cheng Suting win.
"Again."
Cheng Suting had a smile on her face, urging Xu Yao to shake the dice quickly.
Murong Hui watched her shake the dice coldly, and when she looked at her, she lowered her head and listened quietly to the sound of the dice rolling in the vessel.
It wasn't until he was sure that the dice didn't move that Murong Hui raised his head and said coldly, "It's still big." ”
Xu Yao's smile immediately became unnatural.
She wanted to turn her head to give Cheng Suting a hint, but when she turned her head, she found that Gao Ziyue didn't know when she was between the two.
Gao Ziyue was already very tall, so she completely blocked Cheng Suting.
She tried to dodge, but no matter how she dodged, Cheng Suting quickly blocked her.
Cheng Suting is also from a royal merchant family, and she knows a little bit about casino tricks.
"Why don't you guess!"
Xu Qing on the side was already holding her breath, and when she saw this, she hurriedly sneered at Cheng Suting.
Cheng Suting was irritable when she was blocked, but she didn't know how to guess, and under Xu Qing's constant urging, she finally spoke: "Small." ”
Xu Yao glanced at her a little speechlessly, and before she could open the lid, the melon-eating crowd next to her couldn't help laughing.
Han Xiang couldn't help but sigh, she knew that Cheng Suting had lost this time.
"It's big."
Xu Yao was still smiling, but there was a bit of annoyance in her eyes, it was obvious that her temper was not as good as it seemed.
She calmed down and started the third game again, Murong Hui still hung her head and listened carefully to the sound of the dice turning.
Soon the sound of the dice rolling stopped again.
Murong Hui raised her head, and didn't give Cheng Suting a chance this time, so she said lightly: "It's a small point, two, three, three." ”
After speaking, she asked Mama Huang on the side to open the lid.
The dice inside were indeed the three points that Murong Hui said.
"Your Highness, you're out of line, I haven't guessed yet."
Cheng Suting had already pushed Gao Ziyue aside, rushed to Murong Hui, and shouted loudly.
Originally, it was a best-of-three game set by them, if she didn't say anything, then Murong Hui would win.
"Xu Yao, tell me, this thing is on the table, how can the dice in it still move?"
As Murong Hui spoke, he picked up the utensil and shook it violently, and the utensil flipped on the table a few times and completely fell apart.
And behold, under the vessel, there was an arc-shaped thing, which at first glance looked like something that was made of hands and feet.
"You still said that you didn't cheat, Xu Yao, what is this?"
Gao Ziyue was choked a few words just now, and now that she has finally caught the handle, she will definitely not let go of these people.
"These are all prepared by them, we are just borrowing them, how do we know that there is a mechanism here? I didn't touch the mechanism anyway. ”
Xu Yao immediately caused trouble, anyway, she thought that no one had evidence to prove that she had just done something.
"Your Highness, we haven't guessed yet, you opened the lid, it's really too domineering."
Han Xiang immediately spoke, wanting to change the topic.
"A few of us are given dice, which we haven't done before, this time it doesn't count, let's compete again, this time the game will be won or lost."
Murong Hui waved her hand, her face revealed a little chill, she turned her head to look at the cold-faced snake and said.
The snake nodded, and immediately had another vessel fetched, and opened it in front of them, and made sure that it was all right, and guessed that it was reassembled.
"Don't go, to be fair, you'll roll the dice this time."
Murong Hui looked at the ground snake, and then fell on Xu Yao: "It's up to you to bet with me." ”
Xu Yao was stunned for a moment, then clenched her fists and nodded.
She turned her head to look at Han Xiang, and there was a bit of reproach in her eyes.
Before they came, they had said that Murong Hui was just a princess who didn't understand anything, but now it seems that this is obviously not the case.
The ground snake glanced at the two of them, and quickly shook the dice, he just heard this group of little girls splash dirty water on their heads, and their lungs were about to explode.
