Chapter Forty-Seven: The Border Passes Need Silver

King Shou'an needed silver to save the emergency, but Hua Lan didn't buy it, so he had to use his brain to find a way.

"I'll bet on this competition with the queen!"

Hua Lan laughed when she heard it: "King Shou'an is really joking, this competition is betting on Wan Xiangju's arrears, what do you bet on?" ”

King Shou'an's face turned pale, and he crossed to the chair opposite Hua Lan and sat down, his phoenix eyes were cold: "Hua Manlou owes Wan Xiangju 80 million taels of silver." The contest was agreed, and Hua Manlou lost, and the silver owed was doubled. If you win, the arrears of Huamanlou and Wanxiangju will be written off, yes or no? ”

Hua Lan didn't know what King Shou'an meant, she didn't nod or shake her head, and stared at him indifferently: "Does this have anything to do with your bet?" ”

"Of course it is."

King Shou'an was not disappointed, the corners of his lips hooked, and he said coldly: "The queen mother and I bet on winning or losing this competition." ”

"What's the gambling method?"

Hua Lan still looked at him silently.

"It's easy."

King Shou'an raised his eyebrows: "The queen is sure to win Wan Xiangju, and 80 million taels of silver will naturally be saved." But if the queen loses, this is 160 million taels of silver. ”

Hua Lan listened to it, but she didn't understand King Shou'an's intentions. But she didn't speak, staring at him intently, her brow furrowed slightly.

"160 million taels of silver, how sure can the queen mother win it back?"

A treacherous smile appeared on King Shou'an's face, his eyes were as cold as ice, and he said arrogantly: "How much strength can the queen mother have to defeat the flower slave of Wanxiangju?" ”

Hua Lan has no strength at all, and the competition is not what King Shou'an should come down?

You should come down and you go to the martial arts competition, what, run here and negotiate terms with me.

Hua Lan sneered: "The competition between Hua Manlou and Wan Xiangju, what does King Shou'an think, you might as well be blunt?" ”

"I only ask how sure the queen mother can be to defeat the flower slave and win back this 160 million taels of silver?"

King Shou'an's aggressive gaze came.

It's a big deal to lose silver, isn't it just 160 million taels of silver?

It seems that King Shou'an wants to use this competition as a threat, and it depends on what tricks he has.

Hua Lan raised her eyelids expressionlessly, and snorted lightly: "If it is King Shou'an, how sure will you be?" ”

"Of course, this king is very sure."

King Shou'an sneered, his eyes darkened: "However, I bet with the queen mother that you have a chance of winning, not me." ”

King Shou'an's words are very clear, if Hua Lan comes forward to compete, Wan Xiangju's arrears are whether he wins or loses, and he can be a little sure.

Hua Lan vaguely understood the true intentions of King Shou'an, and she would definitely not be able to defeat Wan Xiangju's flower slave.

How powerful Hua Nu is, she really hadn't thought about this question before she met King Shou'an. But King Shou'an is now coercing her, and she is unwilling.

Hua Lan is not stupid, before King Shou'an does not put forward conditions, she still has to understand Hua Nu thoroughly, so she smiled and said: "There is still a long time to compare martial arts." It's better for everyone to give each other a little time, and King Shou'an can come again tomorrow evening, and I will definitely give King Shou'an a satisfactory answer at that time. ”

The strength of the flower slave, King Shou'an knows it very well, and with the kung fu of a few three-legged cats under the queen's mother, he was beaten down in two clicks.

He stood up and sneered calmly: "Okay, this king will give the queen a day." ”

He was very smart, and he said even more cunningly: "In this day's time, the queen can look for masters to compete with this king." If he defeats this king, this king will be considered to have lost, and let the queen mother put forward a condition. If she loses to this king, the queen will have to come up with this 600 million taels of silver. ”

The fox's tail is finally revealed.

Hua Lan's face was blue, this was clearly blackmail, naked blackmail.

She understood the purpose of King Shou'an's impatience to take over the Wanxiangju competition.

Dare to love him, he had already planned to extort 160 million taels of silver from her.

Wan Xiangju, what kind of martial arts competition? Whether she competes or not, she has to hand over 160 million taels of silver.

It's so special, it's too bullying!

Hua Lan was full of anger, her eyes were on fire, and she looked at King Shou'an angrily.

As soon as King Shou'an saw her expression, the smugness in his heart flooded up the corners of his lips, but he only raised it slightly, and then cooled down again: "What, the queen mother has an opinion?" ”

"Now that the border is in an emergency, the soldiers on the front line are about to gnaw the bark, and this king can't bear the queen's extravagance. This 600 million taels of silver is used to stabilize my Great Zhou Dynasty and appease the border soldiers, which can be regarded as accumulating a merit for the queen's mother. What else is the queen not satisfied with, and what else to complain about? Isn't the money still in your pocket? ”

"This king is not unreasonable, tomorrow evening. If you defeat me, won't the 600 million taels of silver still belong to the queen's mother? ”

After King Shou'an finished speaking, he walked out, his face as cold as frost. The wide sleeved robe flicked back, bringing out a plain white arc in front of Hua Lan, and before Hua Lan opened her eyes, King Shou'an had already gone out.

King Shou'an's anger was accompanied by a hint of disappointed mockery, and Hua Lan's whole body froze for a moment.

Border emergency?

She was stunned, and it took a long time to chew on King Shou'an's words.

At this time, the spring silkworm hurriedly ran over. She looked at her stunned master, and panicked: "Master, what's wrong with you, what's going on?" ”

King Shou'an urgently wants 160 million taels of silver, if it is really an emergency at the border?

Hua Lan flickered in her heart, she didn't see the spring silkworm, nor did she hear the voice of the spring silkworm, she looked at the direction where King Shou'an disappeared in a daze, and muttered in her mouth: "The border is in a hurry?" ”

"Border emergency?"

The spring silkworm chewed the queen's muttering, and was suddenly startled, hurriedly stepped forward to hold the queen's hand, and said hurriedly: "Master, what are you talking about." Isn't there a general from Zhenxi at the border pass, how can it be urgent? ”

General Zhenxi?

Hua Lan came back to her senses, her eyes fell on the face of the spring silkworm, the stiffness on her face was still not opened, and she asked, "King Shou'an is here for silver." ”

Silver, the border is urgent, what does this mean?

The spring silkworm squeezed its head, could it be that there was a problem with the grain and grass.

She stared at the queen very nervously, and didn't dare to ask with her mouth open.

Hua Lan gradually came to her senses, what was wrong with her?

She is not the real queen mother, what does she have to do with worrying about the country and the people? Besides, can the money of the system be easily borrowed, isn't it?

However, her heart was sullen, like a huge stone, which made her unbearable.

Her predecessor was just an insignificant little palace maid, why did she have such a strong feeling of depression, Hua Lan couldn't help but be at a loss.
