Chapter 337: Make a Bet
Chapter 337: Make a Bet
After knowing that Chu Xujun had entered the palace, Wei Ling insisted on breaking out of the warm pavilion and coming to the Tingyu Pavilion.
The emperor had no choice but to follow.
Facing Zhao Zifu, Zhu Qi's face turned cold: "Zhaohui, I asked you to have a face-to-face interview with the eldest lady of the Chu family, but I didn't let you threaten her like this."
Zhao Zifu: "Your Majesty, the eldest lady of the Chu family had no respect for me at the beginning. I'm just trying to get a breath of air. How can you threaten her?"
Zhu Qi: "In the future, you will all be a family, why fight for this breath?"
The crowd froze.
What does the emperor mean......
"Brother Xian, I think the eldest lady of the Chu family is for you, not afraid of life and death. In that case, you should enjoy the blessings of all people, what do you think?"
Wei Ling knelt and sat up straight: "Your Majesty, the minister made a death oath with Chu Niangzi that day, if this agreement is violated, the minister will be thundered with five thunders, and he will not die well." I also hope that the emperor will spare the lives of his ministers."
Chu Xujun: "......"
How could they have made this vow?
The rest of the women were stunned, envious and jealous, and their faces gradually distorted.
This lady of the Chu family is so ruthless!
Xu Xue and Yin Yue were thoughtful.
Zhu Qi's face was even more ugly, this Wei Ling ...... There are many ways to stop the marriage.
It's a pity that he wants to be a "benevolent gentleman"!
Chu Xujun spoke, "Your Majesty, the people's daughter has a proposal. I wonder if I can say that?"
Zhu Qi: "Chu Niangzi, but it doesn't hurt to say it."
Chu Xujun: "Since the folk girl and the eldest princess are competing, it is better to make a bet and divide the winner and lose, and the winner will have to keep the marriage contract."
Wei Ling: Did ...... take this king as a bet?
They didn't have that agreement.
The emperor thought to himself, a gambling contract, there are naturally many places where you can use your hands and feet.
He looked at Zhao Zifu: "Zhaohui, what do you think?"
Zhao Zifu: "But it's up to the emperor to decide. Chu Niangzi, what do you want to bet on?"
Chu Xujun: "Since the gambling contract is proposed by the people's daughter, as for the content of the bet, it is set by the eldest princess, how about it?"
Everyone present was shocked, Chu Niangzi was so confident, where did she get the confidence?
That's right, if it weren't for Chu Xujun's own gambling contract, Zhao Zifu wouldn't necessarily agree.
Wei Ling and Yin Yue's faces were also very cooperative, showing shock.
In contrast, Yin Yue's worried look was more real.
Zhao Zifu thought about it, so she summoned her grandmother, wrote a note, and presented it to the emperor.
After reading it, Zhu Qi nodded.
Zhao Zifu: "Let's gamble, grain and grass."
Xu Xue suddenly spoke: "This, it's so unfair!"
The eldest princess of Zhaohui and a civilian woman, gambling on the grain and grass in the army, no matter how much Chu Niangzi does, she is bankrupt, how much can she come up with?
Zhu Qi glared at his newly established wife, an idea he agreed.
Chu Xujun pondered, "Does it include weapons?" She didn't want to give up the sky to the fire easily.
Zhao Zifu: "Not included, only grain and grass. Regardless of whether he wins or loses, he will be used as food and grass in the army and dedicated to the emperor. The time is limited to one month, and it will be transported to the military camp designated by the emperor."
It takes time to deliver food and grass, and it is too bullying to add weapons.
Haha, she's so smart to come up with such a bet.
Chu Xujun and Wei Ling glanced at each other, isn't it a coincidence, hitting her hand?
"The maiden agrees!"
"Your Majesty!"
Zhu Qi walked off the high platform and stopped in front of Chu Xujun: "Chu Niangzi, if you are behind...... Yun Ying is not married, I will arrange a good family affair for you."
Chu Xujun lowered his head: "The people's daughter thanked the emperor first."
This is the assumption that she will definitely lose.
Zhao Zifu followed behind the emperor, glanced at her, and left.
Yao Yi looked like she was planning for her: "Chu Niang
Son, why is this so painful? A marriage, do you want to drag down the family and bury you?"
Tao Yan: "Yes, Mrs. Chu. Although King Qin is heroic, how can your family agree to this gamble as soon as this bet comes out. Who else will accept you in the future?"
Jiang Nishan: "Isn't it, Chu Niangzi said that she was willing to fight for King Qin, but in fact, she had already given up early in her heart?"
Wei Ling: "No, she won't. Thank you ladies for your concern. Let us be out of company."
They finally left.
Soon a voice came from behind him: "Chu Niangzi stays."
It was Xu Xue: "I will ask my father to send you some grain and grass, but it is estimated that it is not much, it may be less than a thousand stones."
"Mrs. Xu has a heart. The daughter of the people writes down your kindness."
Xu Xue waved her hand and left.
Wei Ling looked at her, meaning when did we get in touch with Lord Tingwei's family?
Chu Xujun raised his eyebrows, which means, just today.
In front of the palace gate, Yin Yue also chased after her: "Sister Xujun, do you want me to send some to the palace to make a show."
Yes, today Yin Yue openly stood by her side, and she had to "behave".
"The Yin family is poor, send 100 stones first, and then send another 100 stones later."
"Then I'll go to the royal brother again and cry."
"Yueyue is so smart."
Chu Xujun and Wei Ling returned to their own carriage and glanced at each other.
Only then did he lean forward and lean back with silent laughter.
**********
The news about gambling contracts on the street spread far and wide.
Chu Liang hurried back to King Qin's Mansion from Youlu Tower: "Sister, I heard outside, you made a bet with the eldest princess? Then we should hurry up and bring all the grain and grass in our hands."
In the Yu Pavilion, Chu Xujun leisurely flipped through the account book in his hand: "No, if you want to give it to the eldest princess, you will also give it to the eldest princess."
The King of Qin on the side was grinding ink for her.
"What? How can I return the food to the other party?" Chu Liang was shocked, "No, why are you still so leisurely?"
Sister Wei also rushed in: "Yes, brother, how can you agree to this kind of bet?"
Wei Lengshu chased behind: "Xiao Ning, think about it, whose hands are Lingzhou Yangcheng and Jizhou Yancheng in now?"
Chu Liang: "Even the grain from Zhongzhou, Jeju and Changzhou, we can also buy and ship it quickly."
Chu Xujun raised his head at this time: "So the most difficult thing now is that we have to calculate how much food we send to the other party and how much food we keep."
The number of granaries in the world, they may not be able to calculate the internal history of the cure.
But with high-yield grain in hand, coupled with a grasp of the situation in Jingzhou, as long as Zhao Zifu has less grain in his hands than them, it is enough.
They can also take the opportunity to earn a sum of Zhao Zifu (Zhu Qi behind it).
The difficulty is that if they take out too much, they will inevitably tell Zhu Qi that they have the right to grain and grass in their hands.
That's not good.
As a result, these people who took the initiative to send them began to calculate the output and grain hoarding of each state together.
Wei Ling mainly analyzed, who will send food to the emperor, send more and send less.
As soon as the bet came out, that night, King Qin appeared at his night banquet.
After a full meal, the "donation" begins.
So from this day on, there were fewer and fewer people at King Qin's night banquet.
Those who can send ten stones are already willing to continue to make friends.
As for the people who privately invited the King of Qin to use grain to negotiate a deal with Wei Ling.
I have to say that a few are still quite unexpected.
For example, the Tao family.
