Chapter 268: I can’t even afford to lose my fortune (page 12)



As the sound of the piano sounded, Yuan Chuyi was immersed in the music, as if she had returned to her previous life when she was practicing the piano. She did not come back to her senses until a wave of applause sounded from the audience at the end of the song. Just as she was about to stand up and bow down and leave the stage, Tuoba Yin said, "Princess An, can you play one more song? Otherwise, Xiao Wang will not be willing to lose!"

He has determined that this mysterious and extraterrestrial object is not a divine object, but a musical instrument. This bet with Princess An is definitely lost!

"One more song, one more song!" Not only the envoys in the audience shouted, but many of them in the court also shouted, and the loudest one was Nangong Yu.

"Princess An, everyone is so kind, so I'll beg you to play a few more songs!" The emperor felt very humiliated when he heard the sound of the piano.

When she saw the emperor at the beginning of the Yuan Dynasty, she had already given the order. How could she still say no? So she had to sit up straight and play Autumn Whispers again. The sound of the piano played this time is not as cheerful as the previous one, but rather quiet and lingering, like a gurgling stream, flowing gently in people's hearts, and like the fallen leaves fluttering in the autumn wind, with a touch of sadness. As her fingertips continued to dance on the keys, the sound gradually became melodious, and people's moods also soared. Everyone in the audience listened quietly, intoxicated by the sound of the piano.

Xiao Jing propped up her cheeks and looked at Yuan Chuyi on the stage, her eyes filled with confusion. What else could this woman not know? Who is her master?

Several veterans in the audience looked at Yuan Chuyi with shock in their eyes. Instead of anger, they nodded with satisfaction. The eyes of several noble ladies looking at Yuan Chuyi were full of shock, and there was no trace of the disdain they used to look at her.

On the first day of the Yuan Dynasty, in response to the request of the emperor and Tuoba Yin, she played three more pieces of different styles. Seeing that everyone was still not satisfied, she stopped playing. If she continued to play, tonight would be her concert.

As soon as she stepped off the stage, she received a delighted look from Xiao Jing from the air, and she smiled brightly at him.

The emperor recovered from the shock and asked Tuoba Yin: "Prince Huan, can this bet between you and Princess An come to an end?"

Tuoba Yin stood up and said helplessly: "Xiao Wang admits that Princess An won this bet! Xiao Wang will offer the Phoenix Blood Vine as promised!"

After saying that, he took out a small brocade box from his arms and offered it to him. Xiao Jing immediately stepped forward to take it, "Thank you, Your Highness, King Huan!"

He immediately handed the box to Fang Wuyan behind him for inspection. Fang Wuyan opened it for inspection and nodded, "Genuine!"

"Xiao Wang thanks His Highness Prince Huan again!" Xiao Jing bowed deeply to Tuoba Yin again.

"Prince An is so polite!" Tuoba Yin said with a helpless smile, "Princess An is really a rare and wonderful woman. She helped our court solve the mystery of this extraterrestrial divine object! This is what she deserves!"

"Your Highness King Heng, don't forget, I still have money to collect! I wonder how much money you brought this time, whether it is enough to pay for it!" Yuan Chuyi stood up and said with a smile.

Tuoba Yin laughed, "A little money is no big deal."

Xiao Jing also looked at Yuan Chuyi. This guy was just a money addict. Not only did he get the Phoenix Blood Vine, he also wanted to blackmail others for a sum of money.

"Madam, if it's just a small amount of money, forget it!" He felt that the price would be reduced by charging a small amount of money from a dignified prince in public.

"Little money is also money!" Yuanchu said in a low voice. Small money, let you see how much this small money is in a moment!

When the emperor saw this on the first day of the Yuan Dynasty, he immediately laughed and said, "Yes, what Princess An said is that small money is also money. Since Princess An won the bet, please ask His Highness Prince Huan to fulfill the contract! Come on, put on the plate, twenty Five!”

The chamberlain and the maid immediately set the table, and twenty-five gold plates on the table. Tuoba Yin came on stage with a smile.

"It's just twenty-five plates! Xiao Wang can afford it!"

He immediately followed the agreement and put one tael of silver on the first plate, two taels of silver on the second plate, four taels of silver on the third plate, eight taels of silver on the fourth plate, and eight taels of silver on the fourth plate. Sixteen taels of silver were placed on the plate...until the tenth plate was put on, and when it was about to put the eleventh plate, he was shocked. If he put it down again, he would have to put one thousand and twenty-four taels.

"..."

He looked at the banknotes in his hand that he had exchanged at the bank today. There were still a lot of them, and there was still room for the eleventh plate. But when he finished putting the thirteenth plate and was about to put the fourteenth plate, he The banknotes on hand are no longer enough.

His face was red, and big beads of sweat were dripping from his forehead.

"What's wrong with His Royal Highness King Huan? Is it because he doesn't have enough money?" On the high platform, a noble concubine couldn't help but asked with a smile.

Tuoba Yin wiped the sweat from his forehead and raised his hand to the emperor, "Your Majesty, the silver that the little king brought is indeed not enough to compensate Princess An for the silver she needs!"

"Oh? Are there other things that can be used to offset the price?" The emperor said with a smile, "Your country is a huge country with a vast land and rich resources, and some of them are rare and rare treasures. I have made the decision. If the prince has other treasures to pay for it, that is fine. "

"This..." Tuoba Yinlie was embarrassed. They came to Xia Yang Dynasty this time with the intention of taking the three cities back. In addition to a mysterious object, they brought with them the Phoenix Blood Vine and other rare treasures. He didn't bring it with him, because he was sure that no one would know what the object was. It was a sure thing, but he didn't expect that the Xia Yang Dynasty actually had a well-informed Princess An. Not only can he know what the object is, but he can also use it without any obstacles. His playing technique is as smooth as flowing water.

They really underestimated the Xia Yang Dynasty! Miscalculation!

"Xiao Wang and the envoy came in a hurry and did not bring any other treasures with them. Can you calculate how much money Xiao Wang should pay Princess An in total? Xiao Wang will have someone bring it from the country!"

"Not much, three thousand five hundred and fifty-four thousand four hundred and thirty-one taels!" Yuan Chuyi said with a smile.

"How many, how many?"

When the total number was reported on the first day of the Yuan Dynasty, everyone was shocked. Several adults in the Beidi mission were so shocked that the cups in their hands clattered to the ground.

"It's only 33,554,431 taels!" Yuan Chuyi smiled sweetly, "His Royal Highness King Huan has already paid 10,000 taels, and there is still a shortfall of 3,354 taels. It’s only four thousand, four hundred and thirty-one taels. Just give it a fraction and just pay three thousand, three, five hundred and forty-four thousand, four hundred taels!”

"..." Tuoba Yin took a breath of air and fainted on the spot. It would take him several lifetimes to earn so much money!

As soon as they saw him fainting, everyone hurriedly called the imperial doctor, pinched everyone, and the stage became a busy mess. Yuan Chuyi looked at the emperor with an innocent face.

The emperor was amused by her pitiful and innocent look, and immediately asked people to carry Tuoba Yin back to have a good rest. After the palace banquet was over, everyone left, except Xiao Jing and Yuan Chuyi, who were invited to the imperial study room. conversation.

As soon as he arrived at the Imperial Study Room, the emperor first praised Yuan Chuyi, praising her for bringing honor to the country and adding honor to the country, and then rewarded her with many things. On the first day of the Yuan Dynasty, he happily accepted the order.

"Why does Madam look like a money addict!" Xiao Jing couldn't help but say from the side.

Yuan Chu smiled and said, "If you have money in hand, you can go anywhere in the world!" She said arrogantly, "If the prince changes his mind one day and wants to marry a concubine or a concubine, then I can take the money and take him with me. The child is going to travel around the world!"

"You are so beautiful!" Xiao Jing held her hand, "If you have a wife like this, what more can a husband ask for!"

The emperor looked at the couple and all thoughts of marrying him and having a concubine disappeared on the spot.
