I am a thief in the Tang Dynasty

His majestic face was covered with a faint smile, and he said loudly:

"Today is the grand event of Longhua. People from all over the world gather here to share the grand event of our Tang Dynasty."

"My warriors from the Great Tang Dynasty are fighting with warriors from other countries. As the Emperor of the Great Tang Dynasty, I declare that the wrestling match has begun!"

"As your majesty wishes!"

There was another thunderous response from the audience.

Immediately, cheers resounded through the sky.

Boom!

The deafening sound of the gong rang out again.

"Contestants, get on the stage!"

"Game start!"

The wrestling contestants, who had already received their badges, immediately went on stage according to the instructions.

Eighty small arenas were instantly tense!

Following the referee's command, the competition in the ring immediately became intense!

In the audience, everyone cheered for the contestants they supported!

The passionate atmosphere quickly rose with the fierce fighting on the ring.

Even the calm and composed gentlemen were infected by the atmosphere and stretched their necks to look at the arena.

Fang Yiyi looked at the small arena No. C3 that was closest to him.

On the small stage No. C3.

Liu Erniu was seen with his upper body naked, calmly responding to his opponent's attack.

He retreated again and again to avoid his opponent's capture.

When he approached the boundary, his eyes lit up and he did not retreat.

Liu Erniu accurately grabbed the opponent's wrist and used the opponent's force to counter him.

Throw the opponent out of the ring directly!

"Fang family, Liu Erniu wins!"

The referee looked at Liu Erniu in surprise as he won so easily. He raised the flag and announced the result loudly!

Fang Yiyi immediately clapped his hands and cheered:

"Good, clean and neat, a beautiful win!"

In the audience, many people who had seen Liu Erniu's performance in the Pingkangfang wrestling arena were dumbfounded and couldn't believe it!

"What? Are you kidding?"

"Did this wrestler from the Fang family win so easily?"

"It's a fluke, it must be a fluke! I've watched him for several days, and he's not at this level at all!"

"Hiss, isn't this a match-fixing?"

"It is very likely that Fang Jia Sanlang paid off his opponent for the sake of his reputation and the bet with the three surnames!"

......

Facing the gossip behind him, Fang Yiyi shook his head with amusement.

Fixing matches to bribe opponents?

The draws for today's competition were all done randomly.

Even the order in which the wrestlers drew lots was disrupted.

At that time, everyone was shouting that the draw was fair, but now it's a fixed match?

It’s really just one word: absolutely amazing!

People from the three surnames were also paying attention to the performance of Xue Li and others.

Even Liu Erniu was in such a state, not to mention Xue Li and Zhou Peizhao. Their opponents were no match for them.

Zheng Zhongquan, who had become an undercover agent, was the first to curse:

"Fang Yiyi is so shameless that he actually used such a sinister trick!"

Wang Youwen's face darkened, he clenched his fists, and said gloomily:

"We have been showing weakness to the enemy these days to paralyze us. How dirty!"

Cui Qi took a deep breath, suppressed his anger, and said calmly:

"It's okay, just a clown."

"The wrestlers from our three families are all experienced fighters. We are not afraid!"

As the three of them comforted themselves, their expressions became slightly better.

They all looked provocatively at Fang Yiyi, who was smiling and calm in the distance.

In the viewing gallery, Cui, who was sitting next to Cheng Yaojin, listened to the sound coming from the audience and her expression changed slightly.

She winked at the maid standing beside her.

The latter ran over immediately, and after receiving Mrs. Cui's order, left quickly.

Chapter 259: Fang Family Bet Too Much, Qinghe Cui Family Can't Afford to Pay

Soon, the maid returned to Madam Cui and reported in a low voice:

"Madam, the odds on Fang's third son are now 50-1, and a total of more than 230,000 strings of cash have been bet on him!"

Hearing this, Cui looked at Fang Yiyi's handsome face with a confident smile and said with emotion in a low voice:

"The young man is really awesome. He actually raised the odds in this way."

But the next moment, Mrs. Cui smiled brightly, and looked at Fang Yiyi with gratitude in her eyes.

"If the third son of the Fang family wins the championship, my Qinghe Cui family will make a fortune this time!"

There were more than 200,000 households in the whole of Chang'an, plus the foreign merchants, there were at least more than one million people.

Together with the Five Surnames and Seven Families and major clans, countless people placed bets, totaling more than 8 million strings of cash.

If the unfavored Sanlang of the Fang family wins the championship, all the money will go into the pocket of Qinghe Cui.

next moment.

Mrs. Cui's expression changed instantly!

Fang Yiyi is rich, a lot of money!

He was concentrating on setting up the scheme, how could he have only 230,000 strings of cash on him?

There should be much more than this!

Mrs. Cui lost her composure and said quickly:

"Go ask which of the least favored companies has the most bets placed on it!"

The maid quickly responded and turned to leave.

Cheng Yaojin, who was standing by, noticed that something was wrong with his wife.

The rough face came over and asked curiously:

"Ma'am, what happened?"

Cui was troubled and said:

"My dear husband, the third son of the Fang family is likely to cause my family to suffer a great loss."

"We'll know the details when we get to it."

Cheng Yaojin looked at his wife's uneasy look and his expression changed slightly.

His complicated eyes fell on Fang Yiyi in the distance.

"It's Sanlang of the Fang family again. It's not over yet, is it?"

The first round of competition ended quickly.

Of the four hundred and thirty-seven wrestlers, only two hundred and nineteen remained.

As expected, all five wrestlers from the Fang family advanced.

The most surprising thing is that the Kong family, who had never been noticed and could not get past the first round of every wrestling match, actually advanced!

Just at this time.

Mrs. Cui's maid also returned to Mrs. Cui and handed her a note.

Mrs. Cui took a look and her face turned pale. She was completely panicked and handed the note to Cheng Yaojin.

Cheng Yaojin looked at the amount recorded on it and couldn't help but gasp.

He slowly swept his thick fingers across the paper and said in a trembling voice:

"The Kong family's odds are 10 to 1, and the total bet is 1,294,731 strings of cash and 654 coins!!!"

"Fang, the Fang family bet three hundred thousand strings of cash!"

"Li Junxian bet 170,000 strings of cash!"

"Li Ji bet 100,000 strings of cash!"

"Wei Zheng bet 50,000 strings of cash!"

"Duan Lun bets 100,000 strings of cash!"

"Yan Xuansui bet 100,000 strings of cash!"

......

Cheng Yaojin couldn’t recite the rest!

He trembled and said, "Surely, surprisingly, there are so many!"

The next moment, Cheng Yaojin looked to his side with his big eyes.

Duke of Wei Fang Xuanling, Duke of Ji Duan Lun, Duke of Cao Li Ji and other important dukes and ministers.

They all sat next to the Imperial Censor Kong Yingda, talking and laughing, and were in great harmony.

In the past, Kong Yingda was the 32nd generation grandson of Confucius.

He was also one of the Eighteen Scholars of the Qin Palace in the past. He had a close relationship with Fang Xuanling and other old officials of the Qin Palace, so it was reasonable for them to sit together.

But Yan Xuansui, Duan Lun and Kong Yingda were not familiar with each other, but now they were sitting together talking and laughing.

It completely confirms the information on the note, it's all true.

This group of people joined forces with the Kong family and set up a trap!

A bet of nearly 1.3 million strings of cash, with the payouts being ten to one!

Chapter 260: Zhang Yaojin: Madam, it’s all my fault for involving the Yue family

If the Kong family really won, the Qinghe Cui family would have to pay nearly 13 million strings of cash!

The total amount of money bet on the entire bet was just over 8 million strings!

The remaining nearly five million strings of cash is still an astronomical figure!

Even though the Qinghe Cui family has accumulated wealth for hundreds of years, they are now a wealthy and powerful family!

I'm afraid that even if we empty our family's savings and sell off our property, it would be difficult to raise nearly five million strings of cash in such a short time!

Moreover, after the gambling is over, Qinghe Cui needs to pay off all bets within three days.

Otherwise, the interest generated by overdue payment will still be terrifying.

It will also have a huge impact on the reputation of the Qinghe Cui family.
