Chapter 4: The Big Winners Behind the Scenes

"Lord Qiqi, my subordinates have investigated clearly, and the woman in the sedan chair is indeed Ye Ziyi. The housekeeper came out to stop her from entering the back door of King Qin's mansion, which was what the concubine meant. But there is one thing that is very strange. A shadow guard was kneeling behind King Qin, respectfully pleading.

"What's strange?" King Qin's voice was very cold and deep.

"According to the news that the spies sent by his subordinates returned, a few hours ago, the welcoming party was ambushed by a group of masked men in black. At that time, even the sedan chair was overturned on the ground, but Ye Ziyi did not take action against the masked man in black, and she never even left the sedan chair during the whole process. Those masked men in black were all killed by the Royal Forest Army led by the Royal Fox. The shadow guard continued to report the information gathered to the King of Qin.

"With such a thing, who would dare to rob and kill my bride near the capital? Find out who dared to do it immediately, and I'll repay him well. King Qin still spoke in a very cold tone, but this time he spoke in a tone of disbelief.

"The subordinates have found out the origin of the other party, it was sent by the concubine Niangniang, she didn't want Ye Ziyi, a waste material, to marry into the Qin Palace, so she came up with a plan to rob and kill the bride in the middle. As for why the bride didn't leave the sedan chair during the whole process, this is not very clear, maybe it is the reason why she didn't dare to leave the sedan chair when she didn't arrive, right? The shadow guard knelt on the ground and continued to pray.

"That's it! Forget it, this matter ends here, as for the matter of the concubine sending someone to rob and kill the bride, remember to keep it secret, once the news leaks, you are the only one who asks, you go down first! King Qin waved his hand and motioned for the shadow guard to step aside.

"By the way, my subordinates have one more thing to tell you."

"What else?"

"Lord Wang, the news of your wedding has not only been spread in the market, but also in the palace. Everyone knows that Concubine Xiang absolutely does not agree to this marriage, and will already do everything possible to make Ye Ziyi unable to enter the prince's mansion. Now many people in and outside the palace have made bets in private, betting on whether she can enter the door today. The guard replied truthfully.

Concubine Xiang dispatched guards to guard the gate of King Qin's mansion, and the palace was already in an uproar, and even the emperor almost canceled the escort of the Imperial Forest Army for a while, for fear that it would be difficult to end the matter. If it weren't for the Queen Mother's insistence, the Royal Fox would not have led the Royal Forest Army to appear in the welcoming procession today.

Xia Xiaoyu slowly turned around, his handsome and cold appearance looked like a heavenly carving, and he looked handsome at a glance, and the sun shone on his burly body, but he couldn't melt the glacier face that had not been transformed for thousands of years. Especially his dark and deep eyes, like a thousand-year-old cold pool, a bottomless mystery.

"If it weren't for the fact that this king had been bet a lot on the periphery, he would have bet that she wouldn't have been able to get in today. This king also wants to mobilize some people to block her outside the Qin Palace, not letting her in, and see if she can enter the palace before the auspicious time. Although the king is now curious whether she can get in, he can't take this risk to try, in case she can't get to the palace in time, the outer bets will have to be miserable. ”

"It seems that now as long as this king doesn't make a move, she will definitely be able to enter the palace before the auspicious time, this time I didn't expect this king to make a lot of money, but it is because of the merits of the royal brother and the queen mother."

Xia Xiaoyu said coldly, jumped into the air, and flew in the direction of the Qin Palace, and the shadow guard Vermilion Bird and the dark guard Qiu Ju immediately flew away.

No, the King of Qin was not only bet on the area ruled by the Wusheng Dynasty, but also on the periphery of several neighboring dynasties. After this incident, King Qin's financial resources will definitely go to a higher level.

The shadow guard was stunned for a moment, God! Did he hear him right? King Qin is actually curious, and the object is still an ugly woman?

Is the sun starting to beat the west?

At this moment, Ye Ziyi's aura had already suppressed everyone present, including the housekeeper Yang Bo.

"Matchmaker, the auspicious time is almost over. If you miss the auspicious time, I will prick you with a poisonous needle a few times and make you lie in bed for three days and three nights. Ye Ziyi scolded sharply and warned the matchmaker in a threatening tone.

Xi Po was sent by the Queen Mother, and she was responsible for sending Ye Ziyi to the Qin Palace. As for sending it in any way, as long as she can complete the task assigned to her by the Queen Mother.

At first, she didn't plan to let the joy sound, for fear of stimulating the people in the Qin Palace, and it would not end well! After all, the bride who was sent over was an ugly waste, and she originally came with a sarcastic nature, and if the joy sounded again, wouldn't the irony be even greater?

But judging from the current situation, Ye Ziyi is not only not a waste material, but also a master who is not easy to mess with, if she doesn't do what she says, Xi Po Dai Ruhua is afraid that she will really be pricked with poisonous needles.

Dai Ruhua took a deep breath and cheered herself up, she raised her head and shouted loudly: "Joy, ring!"

None of the musicians on both sides dared to delay, and immediately stood in formation and began to play, and for a while the gongs, drums, sheng flutes and suona sounded happily, and they were happy to celebrate.

Ye Ziyi raised her hand, Xi Po Dai Ruhua and the bridal maid Xiaoru hurriedly stepped forward to help, the bride got off the sedan chair, and she didn't help her in with the bridal maid in front of everyone's eyes, it was all her fault!

So, in the stunned situation, Ye Ziyi straightened her waist and slowly climbed the high steps at the back door of the Qin Palace, she walked very elegantly with every step, and it could be seen from the steps of walking that she was a very cultivated woman, noble and inviolable.

This made everyone present forget that she was originally an ugly girl of waste wood!

In this way, the bride entered the door under the witness of everyone, and everyone is still amazed that she is not afraid, and even admires her words and deeds, so that in the end, many people forget that there is still a betting game.

"Oh no, this time it's a big loss. Ye Ziyi successfully married into the Qin Palace, and the five thousand taels of silver I bet were all lost. One loss is more than 180! If she is divorced, she will earn more than 900,000 taels of silver! ”

"That's right! I also bet 1,500 taels of silver, and this time I really lost money. I knew that if I bought her and successfully married into the Qin Palace, I would be able to pay at least fifty for one hundred. One thousand five hundred taels of silver, and you can earn seven hundred and fifty taels of silver. ”

"Damn, I was careless, I forgot that King Qin was one of the three gambling cards given by the emperor. There are his gambling houses all over the country and even in neighboring countries! No wonder King Qin and Concubine Xiang didn't come forward to stop it, it turned out that the big winner behind the scenes this time was King Qin! Everyone still wants to see King Qin's jokes, but they never thought that he was a master of collecting money! Fortunately, I only bought 1,000 taels of gold to bet that Ye Ziyi would not be able to enter the Qin Palace, otherwise I would really lose money. ”

"You just bet that little money and keep talking, then I bet tens of thousands of taels of gold in Lelaifang, betting that Ye Ziyi can't enter the Qin Palace, and now that he loses, isn't that going to hang himself?"

A few rich men on the side talked loudly, Ye Ziyi, who was a fan of small wealth, heard that her eyes were golden, and she couldn't walk with her legs just after entering the door.

Damn, King Qin's operation is okay! This dog emperor and the queen mother pig originally wanted me to disgust the mother and son of Concubine Xiang, but it seems that this time the emperor and the queen mother miscalculated. Not only did he not embarrass King Qin's mother and son, but he also became an accomplice to his family to collect money.

But it seems that I am the gambling equipment for this bet! Why didn't I get a piece of the pie? It's not fair!

The emperor gave a total of three gambling cards in the Eastern Holy Dynasty, and the winners were: Xia Xiaoyu, the king of Qin, Xia Xiaohe, the fourth prince, and Shen Wanjin, the richest man.

In the Eastern Holy Dynasty, it is a big crime to open a gambling house without a gambling license, and it will be sentenced to ten years and eight years, and at worst, it will be killed.

Shen Wanjin got the gambling license and opened a gambling house, called Lelaifang, and the gambling house business has already reached more than a dozen neighboring countries. In this incident, he received too many bets that Ye Ziyi couldn't enter King Qin's mansion, and most of them were thrown to Ruyi Fang, and Ruyi Fang was a chain gambling house opened by King Qin, so the final bets were accepted by King Qin.

The gambling house opened by the fourth prince is called Xiaoyaofang, but his gambling house is the smallest, and its business scope is only within the territory of the Eastern Holy Dynasty. Similarly, he also threw away the bets that Ye Ziyi could not enter the Qin Palace, and these thrown away bets were all accepted by Ruyifang.

After all, a loss of more than 180 yuan, except for King Qin himself, no one has the courage to accept it. If it's better to say that one loses one, how do you know that the odds were secretly raised by King Qin, so that no one dared to bet.

He even bet on Ye Ziyi's money that Ye Ziyi couldn't enter the Qin Palace, and let people take it to Lelaifang and Xiaoyaofang to bet that Ye Ziyi could marry into the Qin Palace, and implement bilateral wealth accumulation, even the dealer did not let go, this is a typical big and small take-all!

Rigidly bet on the odds of Ye Ziyi being able to enter the Qin Palace, from the original one hundred to fifty, to the last hundred to ten, no one dared to bet. The gamble became more and more confusing, and in the end, King Qin became the big winner behind the scenes.
