Chapter 400: Bet
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Everyone turned to look at Chu Zhihe in unison.
Chu Zhihe lost her temper and said loudly, โIf you can prove that my injury has nothing to do with you, Iโll kneel down and apologize to you in front of everyone. As for Yang Yeqi and the others, theyโll give you 10,00 taels of silver each!โ
Since Yang Yeqi and the others had a status much lower than that of Yu Yunxi, kneeling to her did not count as a punishment. As such, Chu Zhihe suggested that they give Yu Yunxi 10,000 taels of silver each.
However, after Chu Zhihe finished speaking, many peopleโs expressions changed immediately.
Even Consort Muโs expression was slightly solemn as she said, โZhihe, stop fooling aroundโฆ
โZhihe is still too impulsiveโฆ No matter what, sheโs the noble descendant of the
Emperor. How can she kneel down to the daughter of that sl*t, Changning?โ
โS-sixth, Sixth Princessโฆ Weโฆโ
Yang Yeqi and the other noble ladies were pale. After all, 10,000 taels of silver were equivalent to asking them to empty their familyโs treasury. They wanted to curry favor with Chu Zhihe, but they did not want to implicate their families. Moreover, if their fathers knew they made such a bet, they would definitely be punished. For all these reasons, they looked at Chu Zhihe pleadingly, hoping she would take back her words.
When Chu Zhihe saw the pleading expressions on their faces, she only scoffed coldly.
โWho do these b*tches think they are? How dare they disobey me? They should feel honored that I allowed them to help me deal with Yu Yunxi! Moreover, Iโll definitely succeed this time!โ
Chu Zhihe stared at Yu Yunxi venomously as though she wanted to skin Yu Yunxi alive as she asked, โWhat about you? If you canโt prove your so-called innocence, what will you give me?โ
Without waiting for Yu Yunxiโs reply, Chu Zhihe hurriedly said, โIf you lose, give me the troops in your hands!โ
Chu Zhihe could barely hide her excitement at all at this moment. After all, her father, her mother, and her brother had been displeased with the 100 ,ooo soldiers under Yu Yunxiโs command. If she could successfully seize the troops from Yu Yunxi, it would definitely raise her brotherโs chances of seizing the throne.
Upon hearing this, the disapproving expression on Consort Muโs face vanished immediately. She glanced at Chu Zhihe and saw the confident expression on Chu Zhiheโs face before she thought to herself, โPerhaps that b*tch Yu Yunxi really hurt Zhiheโฆ With so many pairs of eyes staring at Yu Yunxi, it wonโt be so easy for her to get away. If I can make use of this chance to seize the troops in her hands, I wonโt have to listen to the Empress anymoreโฆโ The more Consort Mu thought about it, the more excited she became.
On the contrary, some people were not very happy.
At this moment, Empress Qin quickly stood up and said, โThereโs no need to make a big fuss over such a small dispute between cousins. Why donโt we just let the two children apologize to each other and be done with it?โ
Empress Qin could no longer remain calm and watch the show at this moment.
โIf the Troopsin Yunxiโs hands is given to that sl*t, the Crown Prince and my plan will be ruinedโฆโ
Meanwhile, Consort Hong stood at the side with her head lowered. No one could tell what she was thinking.
Consort Mu raised her chin and said sharply, โEmpress, this is not a small matter. Nothing can be accomplished without consequences. Those who make a mistake should be punished. Moreover, the Emperor Emeritus and the Emperor have always placed great importance on kindness. As members of the imperial family, we shouldnโt harm each other. Yunxiโs actions today are really disappointing. If we donโt punish her today, who knows how rebellious sheโll be in the future?โ
โHa, kindness? Does she think that no one knows what sheโs thinking? Sheโs so brazen in coveting the troops in Yu Yunxiโs hands!โ
Empress Qin was slightly anxious. She was determined to stop this.
However, before the Empress could speak again, Yu Yunxi said seriously, โAlright, I agree.โ
Everyone looked at Yu Yunxi in shock.
โIs the Eldest Princess crazy?
โShut your mouth, Yu Yunxi,โ the Empress Dowager said shrilly as she thought to herself, โIf Consort Mu and her son obtain the troop, then Little Twelfth will really not have a chance!โ
Yu Yunxi ignored everyone and turned to Abbot Liao Chen before she asked,
โAbbot, what do you think of this method of handling things?โ
โAmitabha. Buddha is merciful. The people of the world have thousands of ways to deal with problems. Itโs fine as long as they donโt hurt the innocent,โ Abbot Liao Chen calmly said.
โHeโฆ Is he helping me?โ
Yu Yunxi looked at Abbot Liao Chen again.
Abbot Liao Chen had a square face, and he looked very kind. By all appearances, he looked like a devout Buddhist.
After a beat, Yu Yunxi nodded at Abbot Liao Chen before she turned and said loudly, โIn that case, Iโll make a bet with Sixth Imperial Cousin and the young misses.โ
Then, Yu Yunxi looked around and asked, โIs there a doctor here?โ
Unexpectedly, Abbot Liao Chen said, โI know a little about medicine. If the Eldest Princess doesnโt mind, I can check the injury.โ
Yu Yunxi sighed in relief inwardly when Abbot Liao Chen stepped forward.
Since he was personally checking the injury, no one would object to it. She said, โIn that case, Iโll have to trouble the abbot to check Sixth Imperial Cousinโs injury to see if her finger is broken.โ
Chu Zhihe also felt that it was a good idea for Abbot Liao Chen to check her injury. After all, Abbot Liao Chen was from the Temple of Eternal Peace, and she did not think Yu Yunxi had the ability to collude with him. f reeweb novel.com
Chu Zhihe raised her hand and said, โHmph, watch carefully!โ
Everyone stared at Chu Zhiheโs finger. To be honest, it was impossible to tell what was wrong with the naked eye. However, based on how confident she was and the number of witnesses, they felt that Yu Yunxi would not be able to get away this time.
โThe Eldest Princess is really muddle-headed. Since sheโs done something wrong, she should just admit her mistakeโฆโ
โWhy must she quibble and use the troops in her hands to bet?โ
โWhen the Emperor Emeritus hears about this, heโll definitely be furiousโฆ After all, she treats the troops he gave her so carelesslyโฆโ
Consort Mu and Chu Zhiheโs hearts were racing in their chests. They could not conceal the excitement in their eyes at all.
โYu Yunxi, this idiot, actually gave us such a big gift!โ
Abbot Liao Chen took a piece of cloth from a young monk and approached Chu
Zhihe. He said, โAmitabha.โ
Subsequently, Abbot Liao Chen covered Chu Zhiheโs finger with the piece of cloth before he began to examine Chu Zhiheโs finger.
After a while, Chu Zhihe looked at Abbot Liao Chen and asked loudly, โAbbot, are you done examining my finger? Itโs broken, right? I already told you. Yu Yunxi broke it. Sheโฆโ
Abbot Liao Chen interjected, โBenefactor, your finger is fine. Itโs not broken.โ
โWhat?!โ
Chu Zhihe froze. Her eyes widened in shock as she stared at Abbot Liao Chen. She quickly regained her composure and asked aggressively, โAbbot, are you mistaken? My finger hurts. It must be broken!โ
At this point, the Empress Dowager naturally hoped that Chu Zhiheโs finger was fine so that Yu Yunxiโs troops would not fall into Chu Zhiheโs hands.. With a straight face, she said reproachfully, โSixth Princess, how can you speak to Abbot Liao Chen like that?โ
