Rebirth of the scholarly lady

Chapter 678 Hanging
Do not walk in the counsel of the wicked, stand not in the way of sinners, sit not in the seat of mockers. ——(Psalm Chapter 1 first verse)
Tensions will not change.

In the dark space, candles crackled.

On the top is a black hole with no end in sight.

Bishop Xun Zan raised his head, facing the dark place, and raised his voice: "My benefactors, the object of the bet is Princess Ruiherou, are you all ready? Please place your bet..."

The void that was supposed to be dominated by darkness and silence gave out an echoing roar like a roar.

"3000 million..."

"100 million..."

……

Those voices were very unfamiliar to Nan Surou. Some of them had disdain in their tone, while others were excited... It is an extremely complicated group of funders. I don't know what kind of mentality they are betting on.

Although it sounds big, the gold measurement in Hansha Kingdom is different from other countries. It sounds like a lot, but it is actually not as much as imagined. Those are just a number.

But, even so, such money is an astronomical figure for most of the world.

"Wow, this little girl's worth is really not low. So many people are willing to pay such a large amount of money. Those people actually regard money as their life, and there is no reason to invest in gambling with a low winning rate." Tabersays Can't help muttering.

Celeste Aga was very impatient with such tricks, he snorted coldly, "Hmph, some people contribute money for other purposes, knowing that they have no chance of winning."

At this time, Celeste Aga was still thinking about the feasibility of using force directly. His eyes swept around, and he saw cardinals all over the key positions. It seemed difficult to kill and escape. There were only two exits. They will all be blocked by people, and most importantly, the bishops trained by the Holy See are all the embodiment of resourcefulness and force, and none of them is an idler.

Weighing the pros and cons, if you want to kill Nan Surou, you have to take advantage of the current situation to take her life through the outcome of the game. If you assassinate like before, she is so cunning that she will definitely escape.

Such an endless chase is too time-consuming, it is better to take a gamble.

Bishop Tiberses did not understand Celeste Aga's heart. Seeing that Celeste Aga fell silent, he said, "It's okay, the amount is too far away to reach one billion taels of gold..."

As soon as these words came out, a feminine voice immediately echoed from the top of the darkness:
"One billion taels of gold... I will contribute one billion taels of gold!"

As soon as these words came out, Nan Surou's eyes narrowed slightly, this... was the voice of Prince Hongyu.

This Red Jade Prince unexpectedly spent such a large sum of money, what exactly is he trying to do?

It's just that the actions of Prince Hong Yu seem to have inspired other royal families, and their bets have gradually increased...

"One hundred million taels of gold!"

"5000 taels of gold!"

……

This Hansha country is really a country made of gold!

There are such rich people everywhere, Ya can't help but think, this group of people can't just talk about it, right?Is it really possible to have so much money in this world?

With the Red Jade Prince leading the charge, the subsequent investment also became higher. In just a short while, the betting money raised by Nan Surou rose to 20 billion taels of gold.

If it were any other place, Celeste Aga would just be a high-level investor and say nothing, but now, most of the high-level investors are from the Hansha royal family, even if they don't have that much money, they propose such a price , If you can't pay the bet at that time, you will have to pay for it with your life.

Ya watched the situation helplessly, unable to say anything.

Facing the gloomy opponent, Nan Surou smiled lightly and said, "How is it? Celeste, this time, it's because you don't have enough money. How about it? You should also find a benefactor to invest in you."

"..." Celeste was thinking about other things, but Nan Surou's voice woke him up. He looked up at Nan Surou, gloomy and silent.

Bishop Tiberseth couldn't know what Celeste was thinking, so he couldn't help reminding: "Mr. Aga, this kind of behavior of Princess Ruiherou is very dangerous. Please think twice before imitating her."

"What do you mean by that?" Celeste raised an eyebrow.

As a notary, Bishop Tabersey is still very responsible. He said patiently: "Although you can also find people who are willing to bet like her, but your one billion taels of gold will definitely make Ruiherou County The owner agrees to the gambling game. With the system of the gold owner, Princess Ruiherou must be responsible to all investors no matter whether she wins or loses in the end. Once she loses, she will give everyone an explanation and accept the hellish end, and then Execution... Compared to winning money, those investors probably want to see her tragic death more, and those who are willing to give her credit are probably for this purpose. After all, she won Princess Honglu a few days ago... The status is also taken away, which is a thorn in the hearts of the investors present, everyone is afraid of being robbed of everything...and you are the same, so if you want to raise funds, please think twice."

Sure enough, this group of people are so keen to contribute money, but it is just a fluke mentality. If Nan Surou loses, they can kill them. If Nan Surou wins, they will not lose money, and they can still get money. Why? Happy to do it?
At this time, the fundraising procedures were completed.

Bishop Xun Zan started the final procedure, and he raised his voice and asked: "Investors, if Princess Ruiherou loses in the game, what will you do..."

"I pay the most money, and I care about it very much. If I lose, the final punishment is hanging. In this case, it is better to use hanging as the theme of this game." The soft voice of the red jade prince is like a lonely soul in the space. It floated like a ghost.

As soon as these words came out, the other royal families who were hiding in the darkness instantly became excited.

"Ah ah ah - good proposal!"

"Yes, just play hanging!"

"Hanging!"

"Hanging!"

With the theme of hanging?

Is there such a thing?

Ya's face was covered with cold sweat, and he couldn't say a word. He had never seen such a scene.

Hearing those people's proposal, Nan Surou raised the corners of her lips and did not speak.

However, Celeste Agar's spokesman, Bishop Tiber Seth, spoke, "No! This subject is unacceptable!"

"..." Ya thought that it was Nan Surou who made things difficult for these benefactors, how could Celeste Aga care?

I only heard Bishop Taberseth continue to say: "It is the freedom of Princess Ruiherou to want the benefactor, but there is no reason why even the content of the game should be decided by the beneficiary of Princess Ruiherou, right? Our side Do not agree with this theme, and please lower the bet to one billion taels of gold."

With hanging as the theme, the loser not only loses money, but also loses his life, which is not advisable.

In addition, Celeste has just arrived, although he has won so much money, it is not as much money as Nan Surou raised in an instant.

Recruiting donors is a dangerous thing. As Celeste's notary, Bishop Tiberses has the obligation to remind Celeste Aga to safeguard his interests.
