Text Chapter 1715 Gambling

He knew Miao Yi's background better than others, and felt that no one else would go to the ghost market. The result he came to was the same idea as other ministers.

However, he quickly denied his idea. If Liudao really hid 100,000 troops in the four armies, it would be more useful in the future. Gathering and stripping would be disadvantageous. It shouldn't be right. Could it be that Liudao's troops in the four armies were so many that it was scary that a hundred thousand less would not matter?

When this thought came up, even he was shocked. Liudao was secretly making such a large-scale move without knowing it. This was a bit dangerous for the Xiahou family!

Xiahou Ling, who was kneeling behind, also had a suspicious look in his eyes. He glanced at the ministers with flickering eyes, thinking about Niu Youde's words. If the people of the four armies stopped him, it would only confirm the suspicion that they had previously obstructed Niu Youde from recruiting people. At this point, he might not agree.

Little did he know that this was a brilliant trick that Yang Qing had thought about for a long time. Without this confidence, how could he dare to let Miao Yi take this risk?

Sima Wentian glanced at Gao Guan beside him and found that Gao Guan ate and drank slowly as if it had nothing to do with him.

Pojun and Wuqu looked at each other subconsciously.

Even the Qingzhu sitting high up was doubtful in his heart. Is this monkey kid real or fake?

Xiahou Chengyu, who was sitting next to him, couldn't keep up with the pace. He looked at the eyebrows beside him, but couldn't get an answer. He cast his eyes on Xiahou father and son, but didn't respond or hint.

Qi Linghuan also realized that if he didn't agree, it would be confirmed. But how could he make the decision on this matter? There were many people with higher official positions than him. He was just a small soldier in the court. He looked around to see the reactions of others.

However, other people were not someone who could make the decision casually. This matter required a unified opinion, and the opinions of the four kings had to be asked. Many people were already communicating secretly.

Some people also cursed in secret. What kind of thing was a good birthday banquet messed up like this? Proof? Proof of what? Proof of shit! Is it necessary for all the ministers to go around like this with a small ghost city chief?

But the reality has been pushed to this point by the Ying family, which is a bit nonsense. But it has to end.

Everyone knows that at this point, as long as Qingzhu speaks, this unruly farce can end. No one will object, but seeing Qingzhu's slightly thoughtful look, no one knows what ghost idea he is up to. The ministers of the court who have come to this point can't make a decision to say that this matter is over and continue to eat and drink. They are just making things difficult for Niu Youde and forcing Niu Youde to give an explanation. Now they can't say they don't want to play anymore and treat the court as a child's play. The decision to say "don't play anymore" is in the hands of Qingzhu.

Miao Yi had no intention of waiting for Qingzhu to figure it out slowly. He turned around and returned to the kneeling Ying Wuque, bowing and saying, "Your Majesty, Lord Qi insisted that I testify. I had to resort to this last resort to clear myself of the false accusation. I beg Your Majesty's approval!"

"Haha!" Qingzhu smiled to cover up. As the ruler of the world, he had to be responsible for some words he said. Before he figured it out, he didn't want to make a fool of himself because of his rash words. Especially because it was not worth it to affect his face for such a small matter, he naturally pushed the responsibility to everyone with an impartial look, "Niu Youde wanted all the ministers in the court not to stop him from recruiting people. This is more like a bet between the general town of Ghost City and all the ministers in the court!"

He tilted his head to look at Xiahou Tuo, "Tianweng, the bet at your birthday banquet has really added a lot of fun to your birthday banquet!"

He was also deliberately downplaying the "disgraceful" scene that appeared at the semi-court birthday banquet, defining it as a bet to add to the fun, so that it would not be a big deal if it was spread out in the future, so as not to make people laugh. If there is anyone in the world who cares most about the face of the Heavenly Court, it would be him.

Xiahou Tuo naturally supported him, stroked his beard and laughed, saying, "Your Majesty is right, and I, the old minister, also find it quite interesting."

Xiahou Chengyu also pretended to cover his mouth and chuckled, as if it was very interesting.

In short, the two of them sang and shouted. The atmosphere in the hall was immediately relaxed.

After a while, Qingzhu looked at everyone again, "The bet has been set, have you made up your mind? Are you going to bet or not?"

No matter how the matter ends, it is none of his business if there is any joke, he has already pushed it away completely. He is only the final judge.

The hall was quiet for a while. Finally, Ying Wuman, who was sitting at the end, stood up after contacting Ying Tianwang. He bowed to Qingzhu first, and then said to Miao Yi: "You can't set the premise by yourself if you want to prove it. I also have a premise here. Are you willing to accept it?"

Miao Yi turned around and bowed: "I am willing to listen to your advice, my lord!"

Ying Wuman: "If you want to recruit people from the East Army, the East Army must volunteer, and no coercion can be used."

Miao Yi: "I can't force 100,000 people one by one in a year. I agree."

Ying Wuman: "Secondly, you cannot lure them with money. If you lure them with huge sums of money, then your claim that someone is blocking them is a joke."

Miao Yi: "One hundred thousand elite soldiers, even if you sell me, I can't afford to lure them. I will obey your orders."

Ying Wuman: "Finally, you cannot accept any help from the high-level officials of the Heavenly Court. If someone secretly assigns a team of people to go to the Ghost Market to join them, it cannot be considered that you have successfully recruited them. If you agree to these three points, I personally agree to bet with you on this round."

His so-called personal consent, anyone who is not stupid knows that since he can stand up and say this, he has the permission of Ying Jiuguang, and it can represent the attitude of the entire Eastern Army. The other courtiers of the Eastern Army will naturally express their agreement. .

As for his so-called prohibition of accepting any help from the higher-ups of Heavenly Court, it goes without saying who he is guarding against. I don't know if the others are the key points, but one person is definitely the key point... Master Qing's face darkened slightly.

He could neither be forced nor lured with money, nor could he get help from the higher-ups in heaven. Everyone understood that this blocked all possibilities for Niu Youde to do anything. But Niu Youde still agreed. Everyone really couldn't figure it out. Why would a hundred thousand elites go to the ghost market when they don't even have this advantage? No reason!

Miao Yi: "If someone helps me, I'm afraid I won't be in this situation today, so of course I agree!"

Ying Wuman said nothing, saluted upward again, and then sat down expressionlessly. The anger in his heart was really indescribable. He had been scolded by Ying Jiuguang just now. In fact, the Ying family didn't want to make this bullshit bet with Miao Yi at all, because Miao Yi wasn't of that level. It was all the fault of that idiot Ying Wuque, who forced the Ying family to lower their rank and honor to do this bullshit. It really put the Ying family in trouble. His face was completely disgraced.

As soon as he sat down here, Guang Junan also stood up from the back row and saluted Lord Qing, and then said to Miao Yi: "Niu Youde, I and Yinghou have the same opinion. If you can agree to Yinghou's conditions, Hou, I also bet with you."

Haoze also stood up, and Kou Zheng was the last one to stand up. The two of them expressed the same meaning.

Miao Yi handed over to the three of them: "I agree!"

Just when Guang Jun'an, Hao Ze and Kou Zheng were sitting down, the birthday boy Xia Houtuo suddenly laughed and said: "There is a gambling game to entertain the old minister's birthday banquet. The old minister is naturally happy, but if Niu Youde wins the bet, the old minister is thinking about something The problem is, the ghost market’s general government can only station a thousand people in the ghost market. Now, if 100,000 people are crowded into the ghost market, the ghost market is not that big to accommodate people, and it can’t be accommodated!”

When everyone heard this, they understood. Everyone was focused on Niu Youde's matter, but they all ignored one problem, the interests of the Xiahou family. Guishi had stationed a hundred thousand troops at once, and Xinyi Pavilion could easily lose control of Guishi. The Xiahou family may not be able to tolerate this. As for not being able to live in anything, it's all an excuse. The ghost market is so big that it's okay to squeeze in 100,000 people. If that doesn't work, you can just live underground or on the ground.

Everyone ignored it, but some people did not ignore it. How could the people who planned this game not think about the placement of 100,000 troops? Yang Qing had already had a countermeasure for this, saying: the icing on the cake!

Miao Yi immediately clasped his fists and said, "Your Majesty, I do have a way to solve this problem."

Qingzhu said "hmm" and agreed to let Miao Yi talk about it. On the other hand, he was a little unhappy. A big-ass headquarter actually came here today to talk. What kind of place was this?

Miao Yi said: "Since it is a gambling game, how can there be no stakes?"

Ying Wuman, Guang Junan, Haoze, and Kou Zheng looked at each other. How could they not have thought about the bet? But he didn't want to bet with Miao Yi at all, so he deliberately ignored the bet and didn't mention it. If Miao Yi won, it would be treated as if nothing happened. If Miao Yi lost, Miao Yi would naturally be killed. Talking about whether the bet is not safe for the four companies, Miao Yi's willingness to accept it already means some problems.

Qingzhu said indifferently: "What bet do you want?"

Miao Yi said: "If I can summon an army of 100,000, the ghost city can only station a thousand people as usual, and the rest can be distributed throughout the Netherworld. However, the main town hall of the ghost city does not have such a large jurisdiction, so I I boldly beg your majesty that if I win the bet, I would like to ask your majesty to elevate the Ghost City General Palace to the Netherworld Capital Palace and take charge of the entire Netherland. I am willing to serve your Majesty wholeheartedly!"

As soon as these words came out, the palace, which had been quiet all this time, suddenly became noisy, with whispers everywhere. It turned out that this guy was really audacious, and he openly asked for an official position in front of His Majesty and all the ministers! He actually wants to jump directly from the small town of Xiaogui City to the position of the capital of a prince! He actually wants to control the entire Netherworld! It is really going to be accomplished by this guy. Although the ghost market is controlled by Xinyi Pavilion, the entire Netherland will be decided by this guy. Whoever wants to hunt in the Netherworld in the future will have to ask Niu Youde if he agrees. .

This meaning is extraordinary for Niu Youde. Everyone who knows well knows that some people want to push Niu Youde to death in the ghost market. If this becomes the Netherworld Capital, then Niu Youde will jump out. Got stuck.

Gao Guan brought the wine glass to his lips and drank slowly. His eyes finally focused on Miao Yi seriously, and the brilliance in his eyes disappeared slightly!

That day, Yang Qing asked Miao Yi: I wonder what your ambition is?

Miao Yi replied: So what if your ambition is to be in the world?

So Yang Qinghao was so excited that he said, "It depends on whether you have the courage to get it!"

So Yang Qing came up with a clever plan, not only to help Miao Yi capture 100,000 elite soldiers, but also to help Miao Yi break through the trap of the ghost market in one fell swoop.

So Yun Zhiqiu exclaimed after hearing the news: Your Excellency, Yang Qing is worth a million troops! (To be continued.)
