His Highness the Madman gave in again today.
Chapter 33 Is she a little bit of a jerk?
She held out her hand to Feng Xingyu: "Give me five hundred taels, for the entrance fee."
She had spent all the money she had won.
I am now penniless.
Everyone: "..."
Yan Qing leaned closer to Feng Xingyu and whispered, "Your Highness, five hundred taels is no small sum. What if the Princess Consort loses..."
"Have Granny Yu take five hundred taels from my private treasury and give it to the Crown Princess."
Feng Xingyu gave the order without hesitation.
what?
Yan Qing's expression changed.
"Your Highness, that's five hundred taels of silver that you saved up over eight years. The nanny said she wanted to keep it for your future marriage..."
He quickly covered his mouth as he said this.
That's not right.
Isn't she the princess consort?
Then giving these five hundred taels to the prince's wife seems appropriate.
Feng Xingyu gave Yan Qing a cool look, and Yan Qing chuckled and shrank back.
Sorry, he forgot.
"Your Highness, please wait here. I'll go find the nanny to get it for you right away."
"Wait a minute..."
When Mo Sangyu heard Yan Qing say that it was five hundred taels that Feng Xingyu had saved up for eight years to get married, she suddenly didn't want it anymore.
But Yan Qing ran too fast; she didn't have time to stop him.
This……
Although she was certain she wouldn't lose this money.
But, taking someone else's wife's dowry...
"Don't listen to his nonsense. That money has always been saved for me by the nanny. I didn't intend to use it for anything. It's okay if I lose."
Feng Xingyu noticed that Mo Sangyu seemed somewhat bothered, so he offered a brief explanation.
Mo Sangyu nodded.
Seeing that the atmosphere was becoming a little awkward, Gu Jinzhi simply ran away.
Yuan Zhao followed suit and ran away.
He still had to go to the money exchange to see if he could get back the high-interest loans he had previously lent out, including the principal and interest.
Mo Sangyu waited for Yan Qing to collect the silver, so she had no choice but to stay in the study for the time being.
Ever since that night, she had thought that there was something going on between her and Feng Xingyu, and she had been worried that Feng Xingyu would make her take responsibility. Now that several days had passed, he hadn't mentioned that night again, and she was slowly starting to relax.
Mo Sangyu was thinking.
Is she... a bit of a jerk?
"What are you thinking about?"
Feng Xingyu poured her a cup of tea, his gaze fixed on her face with a certain intensity.
When Mo Sangyu met his gaze, she felt that the way he looked at her seemed different than before.
Especially when it's just the two of them.
When Mo Sangyu tried to investigate the specific differences, she realized it might just be her imagination.
He remained the same as always, with his strangely handsome features, calm and indifferent.
It's been a long time since I've seen him angry with his eyes filled with rage.
"I was thinking, you saved for eight years and only managed to save five hundred taels... that's really pathetic."
"..."
A hint of embarrassment flashed in Feng Xingyu's eyes, but it disappeared in an instant.
Mo Sangyu didn't notice. She paused for a moment, then said, "Don't worry, I'll take five hundred taels from you and pay you back a hundred times, a thousand times! That'll be enough to get you ten or eight wives."
Feng Xingyu gave a barely perceptible cold laugh.
"Then I really have to thank you."
"No...you're welcome."
Mo Sangyu felt inexplicably cold.
She looked away, trying to avoid making eye contact with him.
Fortunately, Yan Qing returned quickly. He handed five hundred taels of silver notes to Mo Sangyu, his hands trembling as he said, "Your Highness, you must... bring them back safely, or the old lady will faint from anger."
"Um."
Mo Sangyu resisted the urge to roll her eyes and snatched the silver note from Yan Qing's hand.
It's just money, isn't it?
Sooner or later we'll bring them back mountains of gold and silver, so they won't be so stingy and it'll only make us angry.
……
The Colosseum.
Mo Sangyu stepped into this place again, already familiar with the place.
This time, she entered without any disguise, appearing in her natural state.
Although she disguised herself the first two times, there were many skilled spies stationed in such places.
With her audaciously accurate betting and unique, eye-catching charisma, she's the kind of person who's bound to cause trouble. How could she not attract attention?
After the previous two times, they had already found out Mo Sangyu's identity and knew that she was Feng Xingyu's princess consort.
So her arrival immediately attracted the attention of the people in the arena.
An ordinary manager quietly instructed his subordinate: "Go and call the head manager right away, and tell him that the troublemakers are here again."
Mo Sangyu was fully aware of this, but she didn't care at all.
Unlike her previous two cautious attempts, she can now mobilize about 30% of her spiritual energy. Against martial arts masters like Yan Qing, even ten of them might not be able to defeat her.
Strength is the greatest source of confidence.
Since she's open for business, she can come and have fun in a perfectly legitimate way; who would dare stop her?
This time, she was there to make money, so she didn't stand on ceremony and went straight to the venue. As soon as the previous game ended, she started placing bets.
After examining the situation with her spiritual sense, she was able to quickly determine who won and who lost.
"Start placing bets."
The dealer glanced at Mo Sangyu with a somewhat unfriendly look in his eyes.
As a result, when he saw that Mo Sangyu had only taken out a few taels of silver, his eyes immediately became wary.
What kind of trick is this?
There's no trickery involved.
I really have no money.
After paying the deposit of five hundred taels, she only had a few taels of silver left.
This was what she asked for from Fengmian.
Apart from Feng Mian, everyone in the manor is incredibly stingy.
When the dealer saw that she had only bet a few taels, the wariness in his eyes gradually turned into suspicion.
The first bet was won without any doubt.
The chips have doubled.
In the second round, she bet all her winnings and won again.
The chips have doubled again.
In the third round, I went all in again.
win!
Mo Sangyu made his bet decisively and calmly, without the slightest hesitation.
Every bet is precisely placed on the side that will ultimately win, regardless of the odds or the strength of the opponent.
In just one or two hours, the tray in front of her, which had been piled with silver notes and chips, had transformed from a few taels of loose silver into a thick stack of silver notes of varying denominations.
A rough estimate suggests that it has already reached tens of thousands of taels.
Such a miraculous maneuver naturally attracted the attention of the surrounding gamblers.
At first, everyone was surprised, then confused, and then tentatively placed one or two bets following her lead.
As a result, they all won.
"Amazing! Absolutely amazing!"
"Quick, follow this girl! We'll bet on whoever she bets on!"
"Girl, who should we bet on next? We'll all go with whatever you say."
The gamblers' frenzy was completely ignited.
More and more people gathered around Mo Sangyu, and whoever she bet on, they all followed suit and bet on that person.
The dealer's face grew increasingly grim, and cold sweat poured from his forehead.
The odds at the Colosseum are adjusted based on the odds and predictions, but such one-sided, highly accurate betting, especially with perfect accuracy, causes the bookmaker to lose money as fast as a burst dam.
Before long, the silver notes in front of Mo Sangyu had accumulated to more than 60,000 taels.
Compared to the previous two times, this time, she really came to cause trouble!
Why hasn't the head steward arrived yet?
This woman had a special status, so they didn't dare to touch her without permission. They could only watch helplessly as she won more and more, almost reaching 100,000, and still showed no intention of leaving.
at last.
The Colosseum was under some pressure and had to pause for a while.
The head steward has disappeared without a trace!
Since the Colosseum opened, it has never been interrupted. The gamblers are winning so hard that they would not want it to stop so suddenly.
Before Mo Sangyu could even speak, everyone else started making a ruckus.
"Why haven't you started yet?"
"Let's get started quickly, don't waste everyone's time!"
"Exactly! This bookmaker is such a sore loser. How much money have you won from us over the years? And now, after only a few losses, you're already trying to cheat? Have you no shame?!"
"Exactly! Let's start the next round!"
"Next game!"
"Next game!"
Everyone shouted in unison, forcing the dealer to immediately start the next round.
This time, a slave with his hands and feet chained was pushed out.
Mo Sangyu's gaze fell on the slave.
He was very tall, but also very thin.
His body was filthy and his tattered clothes were covered with a thick layer of dark red patina from dried and hardened bloodstains, making it impossible to see the original color.
His face was smeared with blood, but his eyes, hidden beneath his disheveled and filthy hair, gleamed with a ferocity and malevolence like that of a wild beast.
At that moment, he stood there, his body slightly hunched, like a bowstring stretched to its limit, ready to unleash a fatal counterattack at any moment.
Mo Sangyu's spiritual sense swept over his body and he was almost certain that none of the slaves in the entire arena were his match.
She likes this person.
Therefore, Mo Sangyu made an unexpected decision.
Before the other slave even appeared, she bet all the silver notes in front of her, nearly 100,000 taels, onto him.
"What's his name?" Mo Sangyu asked.
"Young lady, you have a good eye. He's the fiercest slave here. But a slave doesn't deserve a name. His opponent hasn't even entered yet. Are you sure you want to bet on him? Bet everything?"
The bookmaker offered a friendly reminder.
"No matter who his opponent is," Mo Sangyu said firmly, "I'm betting on him."
The man seemed to have heard what Mo Sangyu said and glanced at her.
Mo Sangyu also looked at him, casually curving her lips into a smile.
That was the most beautiful, purest, and cleanest smile he had ever seen in his life, and it was deeply imprinted in his heart.
"Detain him?"
"Then we'll bet too. Following this girl is definitely the right choice!"
Upon hearing that Mo Sangyu wanted to detain him, and all of him at that, the people around him instantly erupted in excitement and joined in, also wanting to detain him.
"Don't worry, everyone."
The dealer first collected Mo Sangyu's bets, and then slowly said to everyone, "Wait until his opponent appears before deciding whether to bet on him. Otherwise, once a bet is placed, it will not be refunded."
Hearing the dealer say that, the people stopped again.
Waiting a little longer won't hurt.
"roar……"
An iron gate was slowly opened.
Immediately afterwards, a deafening tiger roar resounded.
His opponent was a striped tiger, chained up, baring its fangs and growling incessantly.
The appearance of the tiger instantly ignited gasps and frenzied shouts from the entire audience.
The fight between humans and beasts has always been the most exciting and bloodiest spectacle in the Colosseum.
"They've switched to ferocious beasts?"
"That's it, this guy's definitely dead!"
"Girl...you're probably going to lose this round."
Those who were originally going to bet on Mo Sangyu suddenly began to hesitate.
Although her previous win rate was 100%, the difference in strength in this match was too great.
It seems the dealer brought out this beast specifically to deal with this girl.
This girl is still too young.
Placing a bet before even seeing the opponent is too arrogant!
Now, all 100,000 taels of silver notes have to be returned!
