Chapter 255 The Fifth Prince of Western Chu

Everyone gathered in Centipede's room to eat, looking at two large tables full of food. There were no duplicate dishes, and no one took off their chopsticks.

Centipede is the best at dealing with people, and he feels most at ease when leaving this kind of thing to him.

Centipede stepped forward, hooked Xiao Er's shoulder, and spoke with a smile.

"Waiter, we haven't even ordered yet, and you brought in such a large table of food. How much money will this cost us?"

The waiter immediately smiled and said: "Sir, someone has already paid for your meal, so you can feel free to eat."

Got married?
After the waiter left, Centipede looked puzzled: "I don't know which brother is so generous. This meal looks like dozens of taels of silver."

Basically, the features of Xichu are all on the table.

Qiao Niannian counted it with her fingers, and then said: "Since someone sent it over, let's eat it!"

"After dinner, it's time for the people to see us to come."

Centipede followed Qiao Niannian downstairs. He wanted to see who had taken advantage of him and got the money.

The man didn't expect Qiao Niannian to guess it right away.

The etiquette is very thorough.

That is to say, it is approaching the New Year, and there are not many people in the inn. So the entire first floor was almost full of their own people.

After finishing the meal, the waiter came in again and spoke with a smile.

When everyone went downstairs and saw the people downstairs, they were all a little confused.

Centipede understood instantly.

Qiao Niannian went straight to the point: "Did Yunbroqi ask you to come?"

Xia Rongyu sat down behind him, and the others sat in other seats.

The man in front of me is very strange and powerful. They are sure that I have seen this man before. Moreover, he is dressed in extraordinary clothes and has a luxurious status.

The man looked at Qiao Niannian. Although he was polite, he didn't completely believe Qiao Niannian.

The man, on the other hand, was not surprised at all when he saw the group of people. He even blessed a few of them.

Qiao Niannian stepped forward and sat down.

However, according to Yunbrucci's description, Qiao Niannian does have such ability.

"It is indeed Yunbrozy who wrote me a letter, which stated some things."

Everyone dared to take off their chopsticks after hearing what Qiao Niannian said.

This Yunbroqi was really uninterested. He did such a big thing and didn't tell them in advance, leaving them unprepared at all.

This made him admire him.

It's really strange, they don't know the big shots in Xi Chu.

No wonder someone knew that they were coming to the capital of Western Chu. It turned out that Yuan Bruqi had sent the news in advance.

"Guests, the person who paid for you is downstairs. He said he wants to see you, but I don't know if it's convenient."

Moreover, he felt that the situation in Xichu and Yue was different.

What happened in Yue did not necessarily happen to Xichu.

"Master Qiao, you have come all the way. As the host, I naturally have to entertain you. However, I am afraid that your trip will be in vain this time. I, Xichu, have not encountered the same thing as Yue."

After Yunbruggi sent the letter, he investigated the recent events and found no problems.

Centipede raised an eyebrow.

This person actually didn't believe what Master Qiao said. It seemed that he didn't know Master Qiao's ability yet.

It doesn't matter, seeing will be believing when the time comes, let's see what else this kid has to say.

Qiao Niannian's expression did not change.

She didn't get angry because the other person didn't believe her.

Xia Rongyu, on the other hand, had a hint of unknown meaning in his eyes.

"Fifth Prince, do you dare to bet that Xi Chu was not tricked?"

The fifth prince looked at the man who spoke. Although Xia Rongyu had changed his appearance, the fifth prince still recognized him. "This must be His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of the Great Xia Dynasty. I'm rude."

"I don't think there's any need to bet. It's just a child's trick."

His face was as gentle as jade, but his words were unquestionable.

People who have been in high positions all year round may look gentle, but the domineering nature revealed in their bones is still that of a royal.

Xia Rong looked at the fifth prince with a faint smile.

"The fifth prince doesn't even dare to make a bet, and he doesn't seem to be that sure."

"I originally wanted to give the fifth prince hundreds of thousands of taels of silver, but since the fifth prince refuses to accept it, let's forget it."

The fifth prince choked.

This person is really difficult to deal with.

The Western Chu Dynasty destroyed fifty-eight thousand troops by the Xia Dynasty, and half of the five silver taels distributed by the court went to the national treasury.

If he could easily win hundreds of thousands of taels of silver, he would be able to help Xi Chu solve his problem.

but.

His Royal Highness is still too young.

Qiao Niannian is very powerful. Da Xia Dynasty was attacked, and Yue Kingdom was attacked, so she assumed that Xichu was also affected, which was a bit too arbitrary.

As for the free money, he really had no reason not to accept it. .

"Since His Highness the Crown Prince said so, I would rather be respectful than obey."

"I wonder how His Highness the Crown Prince wants to make a bet?"

Xia Rongyu knew that Xichu's treasury was empty, but it was none of his business, he just wanted to trick him.

"The content of the bet is very simple. Xi Chu has been tricked and lost 300,000 taels of silver to me. The money for asking for our help will be calculated separately."

"If Xi Chu doesn't get hit, even if I lose, it will still be three hundred thousand taels of silver."

The fifth prince smiled softly. This bet was quite simple, but three hundred thousand taels of silver was not just an empty talk.

"I don't know how much gambling money His Royal Highness has."

Xia Rongyu took out 300,000 taels of silver notes directly from his body.

After he left the Great Xia Dynasty, his father was afraid that it would be inconvenient for him to spend money, so he exchanged the banknotes for banknotes common to the Three Kingdoms. They were stamped and money could be withdrawn in Western Chu.

A flash of shock flashed in the fifth prince's eyes.

Let me ask, who in a normal person would carry hundreds of thousands of taels of banknotes with him?
Isn't this person afraid of being robbed?

It's too bold.

But he thought that these banknotes would soon be his, and the smile on his face became gentler.

"Since His Highness the Crown Prince has said so, it is settled."

The fifth prince doesn't know yet that sooner or later he will pay a heavy price for today's actions.

Xia Rongyu didn't give the fifth prince a chance to regret it, so he asked the shopkeeper for pen and ink, wrote down the bet, and asked the two of them to sign it together.

As for the middleman, there is no need for it.

Xia Rongyu believed that the fifth prince could not afford to lose this person, and the fifth prince also believed that Xia Rongyu would not cheat for this little money.

After all, if the reputation of cheating spreads, it will not only bring shame to the individual, but also the face of the entire Great Xia Dynasty.

Seeing that the bet between the two of them was fulfilled, Qiao Niannian smiled with a smile on her face. It seems that money has been put into their pockets.

Xia Rongyu knew that Qiao Niannian liked silver, and seeing Qiao Niannian happy, she felt that it was right for her to cheat the fifth prince.

The bet was completed, Qiao Niannian looked at the fifth prince.

"If the fifth prince doesn't believe it, why not go see your father and listen to what your father said?"

"By the way, pay attention to the counselor next to the prince. He is the senior brother of Tianxuan Sect, Qu Yihang. The fifth prince should be familiar with this name!"

Qiao Niannian said the last two sentences to the fifth prince through the sound transmission technique, so the guards around him could not hear them.

The fifth prince's expression paused, and then he looked at the guards around him and saw that their faces were normal, so he hid his surprise.
