Chapter 670: The Choice of Emperors of Different Dynasties
The shocking betting odds shocked the world!
In just a few days, it went viral in various countries!
Not only the Emperor of Chu received the news, but emperors of other dynasties also received the news.
The first to receive the news was the Wei State, which was closest to the Tang Dynasty.
Wei State, Imperial Palace.
After a spring rain, the sky cleared up and the rain flowed down the eaves, forming a column of water.
Inside the hall, there was a man wearing a dragon robe, with a burly appearance and eyes sparkling with wisdom.
This person is none other than the Great Wei Emperor, Cao De!
A thin middle-aged man wearing a black official uniform stood in the hall, coughing from time to time.
This person was none other than Guo Feng, the Prime Minister of the Wei Dynasty.
"You mean, Chu Ning, the eighteenth prince of Chu, wants to compete with my son Cao Zhi?"
When Cao De heard the news, he was surprised: "Where does he get the courage to compete with my son?"
Guo Feng chuckled and said, "Your Majesty, the Princess of Chu, Shen Wanying, is the most talented woman in the Great Chu. His Royal Highness Prince Chen has always been interested in her."
A smart person can understand the meaning in just one sentence.
"I see!"
Cao De came back to his senses and chuckled, "So, the dispute between the two is not only about the reputation of the two dynasties, but also about their personal grudges."
Shaking his head, Cao De looked amused: "I am very curious about how he will lose to my son."
After a pause, Cao De suddenly smiled and said, "How about this, you let our secret agent pledge one million taels of silver for me."
"promise!"
Guo Feng knew without asking that the winner would definitely be Cao Zhi.
At the same time, the Queen of the Great Zhou also received the news.
The Great Zhou Dynasty, the Empress's bedroom.
Wu Zhao sat in the main hall with a serious expression.
Inside the hall, General Xue Huaide was telling him about Chu Ning's opening.
When Wu Zhao heard that Chu Ning wanted to compete with Cao Zhi, she frowned and said, "This guy is really brave!"
Who is Cao Zhi? He is the most talented person in the world!
This guy has nothing to do after eating, so why would he go and provoke Cao Zhi?
It would be fine if they were just competing in martial arts, but with that guy's skills, he might be able to win by using some underhanded tricks.
But if we compete in literary talent, I don't stand a chance at all.
Even Xue Huaide smiled bitterly: "The King of Chu is such a shrewd man, I didn't expect him to fight for a woman."
"A battle of spirits?"
Wu Zhao shook her head slightly: "Do you really think that's a fight of wills?"
Xue Huaide was stunned: "What do you mean, Your Majesty?"
Wu Zhao chuckled: "Although I don't know where his confidence comes from, he never does anything without confidence."
"You arrange it. I bet one million taels, Chu Ning wins!"
As soon as these words came out, Xue Huaide's face changed drastically: "This... Your Majesty, you can't do that. One million taels is not a small amount."
This is obviously a waste of money.
Even if you have a good relationship with Chu Ning, you can't waste money like this.
Xue Huaide expressed his sympathy.
But Wu Zhao was determined: "Carry out my order!"
It's no longer an order, but a decree!
As a soldier, Xue Huaide had no choice but to bow and salute: "I obey your order."
Although he was puzzled, it was the emperor's order, so how could he disobey?
On the other side, the Emperor of Yan State also received the news at this moment.
Yan State, Imperial Palace.
"Hahahaha, wonderful, wonderful!"
The Emperor of Yan laughed loudly: "I never thought Chu Ning would get things to this extent just for a woman!"
"Very, very good. With this man in our country, why should we worry about not being defeated?"
"Come here, inform our people to bet one million taels of silver, Cao Zhi wins!"
With such a good opportunity, of course I have to make a lot of money.
What's more, the money belongs to Chu Ning, so it is even more worthwhile for him to spend it.
However, not all emperors placed bets when they learned about this.
After hearing the news, the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty only asked about Li Shiming's betting and then no longer paid attention to it.
When the Emperor of Zhao learned about this, he laughed uncontrollably and ordered people to prepare a big lunch, but he did not send anyone to place bets.
There was no way. At this moment, Zhao State only had one capital city left and its financial resources were limited, so it was impossible to place a bet at this time.
Besides, it’s difficult for them to send people out of the city now.
Although the Emperor of Jin wanted to place a bet upon learning about this, he was stopped by his son-in-law Yang Xingye.
Currently, there is a lot of trade between Dajin and Chu Ning. If we bet on Cao Zhi to win at this moment, it will obviously offend Chu Ning.
But if you bet on Chu Ning to win, there is a high probability that your money will be wasted.
Besides, their eldest prince has already placed his bet, so there is no need to continue to get involved in this matter.
The Emperor of the Great Jin Dynasty also listened to the advice, thought it made sense, and chose to wait and see.
The strangest one is the Emperor of Qin.
The Qin Imperial Palace, Xianyang Palace.
Ying was sitting upright on the dragon throne, his sharp eyes flashing with a cold light that made people dare not look directly at him.
Although he is over 40 years old, he is full of energy and vitality.
There was a white-haired old man in the hall, telling what happened in Chang'an City.
Ying Zheng couldn't help but chuckle after hearing this: "I have heard of Chu Ning many times from Changping."
"It is said that this person never does anything without confidence. He is so reckless this time. I am afraid he has other purposes."
The old man standing in the hall was the Prime Minister of the Great Qin, Gan Long. He smiled slightly when he heard this and said, "This man is indeed a genius, but it is unlikely that he can surpass Cao Zhi in literary talent."
Although it was just a simple sentence, it showed the intention.
Ying Zheng raised his eyes to look at this person and said with a smile: "Prime Minister, do you think Chu Ning will lose?"
Gan Long chuckled and asked, "Does your majesty think he can win?"
The emperor chuckled and said, "If the Prime Minister thinks Chu Ning will lose, you might as well place a bet."
"Your Majesty, don't you want to place a bet?" Gan Long asked again.
Unexpectedly, Yingzheng raised his lips slightly and said calmly: "Changping has already placed a bet, it is inappropriate for me to place another bet."
Gan Long thought for a moment and said with a smile, "In that case, I would like to place a bet."
Ying Zheng laughed and said, "Prime Minister, please place your bets. I will not interfere in this matter."
After he finished speaking, Gan Long waved his right hand, bowed, and left.
Ying was staring at his departing back, the smile on his face gradually disappearing.
"Oh, I want to see how you win this time!"
With a chuckle, Yingzheng stood up and left.
All major forces became excited because of Chu Ning's incident.
The day before Dou Lianyi's birthday celebration, these people had basically completed their bets, which shocked Deng Hongwen.
Looking at the extra two million taels in the account book, his face was filled with worry.
If Chu Ning wins, together with the one million taels from Mrs. Dou, the total will be three million taels.
If Chu Ning wins, he will have to pay 30 million taels of silver.
Although all the silver collected in the past few days has reached a terrifying amount of more than 80 million taels of silver, if 30 million taels are to be taken out, it is still not a small amount.
For this reason, Deng Hongwen had to wait outside Chu Ning's house, waiting for Chu Ning to finish his training and report the matter as soon as possible.
Just the night before the birthday celebration, Chu Ning finally came out!
"Hahahaha!"
Amidst loud laughter, Chu Ning came out of the house, smelling all over.
The smell was so strong that even Deng Hongwen couldn't help holding his breath.
Chu Ning seemed to have noticed something was wrong and laughed awkwardly, "Prepare hot water immediately. I want to take a bath!"
