King Huai of Chu was shocked when he heard this!
"My dear Zhaoju, why is this happening!?"
King Huai of Chu also knew about that bronze chariot.
Even if all the hidden meanings behind the historical years are excluded... Judging from the material and age of this car, as well as the brand effect of being 'made by the Zhou royal family', it is still worth a lot of money.
It is no exaggeration to say that even King Huai of Chu was envious of this chariot.
If we talk about the value in detail, even if it costs 50,000 gold, there are still wealthy businessmen who are willing to buy it!
This chariot is now the vehicle of Zhaoju, the patriarch of the Zhao clan. It requires four or five servants just to maintain it. It is truly the treasure of the Zhao clan.
If he really loses this car to Xiong Wuliang, Zhaoju and Xiong Wuliang will have a big feud!
From the side, Zhaoju is willing to use this car as a bet, which also shows Zhaoju's disdain for Xiong Wuliang's words!
Too.
Xiong Wuliang's statement has no serious basis.
It gave Zhaoju great confidence!
Zhaoju said solemnly to the King of Chu: "I am old and don't want to fight..."
"The reason I am betting against Mi Liang now is to warn future generations——"
“It’s about running the country, so be careful what you say!”
"Young man, don't be too arrogant!"
"Master Mi Liang's bet of 10,000 gold can be regarded as tuition for the old minister!"
"Please, Your Majesty, bear witness to this bet!"
Xiong Wu’s conscience was overjoyed!
Although this bet is not the mountain of treasures and treasures that Mi Fei lost to him, he can use it as he wants.
But this car is also a real national treasure!
If it were placed in future generations, it would probably have to be placed in the center of the Palace Museum for enshrinement.
This chariot is not only extremely valuable, but even though it is heavy, it is surprisingly light. It can be pulled by one horse. If it is coupled with four good horses, it can travel hundreds of miles a day!
Once this Zhaoju car walks on the street, it will make a clear and pleasant sound. Coupled with its simple shape and luxurious umbrella cover... it has long attracted Xiong Wuliang's attention!
It's better for this junior to take care of this car for you.
…
King Chuhuai coughed slightly and looked at Xiong Wuliang, whose eyes were shining brightly. He tried to persuade him, not wanting Xiong Wuliang to become enmity with the old fox Zhaoju——
"Wu Liang, Zhaoju's teachings just now are also mature words."
"Young people can't talk nonsense if they don't understand."
"If you bow your head to Ling Yin now and admit your mistake, then I will make the decision - this bet will be over, how about that?"
Zhaoju frowned.
He really wanted to teach Xiong Wuliang a lesson.
I have disliked him for a long time!
Just now, Xiong Wuliang didn't know whether to live or die and offered to make a bet. Zhaoju was almost happy!
But now King Huai of Chu said something to calm things down, leaving Zhaoju speechless.
Zhaoju, the magistrate of Chu State, from the perspective of official position alone, it can be said that one person is less than ten thousand people in the huge Chu State. The Zhao family is a prominent family whose history can be traced back to the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors period.
What level of Xiong Wuliang is he worthy of gambling with Zhaoju?
Although he is also a lord of four thousand households, in the final analysis he is just a junior who inherited the title of his father!
If Zhaoju continues to be stubborn and entangles with the younger generation to the end, it will not sound good if he speaks out.
"Since the king said so..." Zhaoju said reluctantly...
"Your Majesty, I will not apologize!" Xiong Wuliang said firmly!
Hold the grass, don’t stop your eldest nephew from getting rich!
Let's just settle the grudge. Anyway, Lao Zhaoju has always disliked me——
"The one who takes the throne must be Ying Ji, I said so!"
"Please, Your Majesty, bear witness to this bet!" Xiong Wuliang said to King Huai of Chu.
Zhaoju raised his eyebrows! What a surprise!
King Chu's intention of giving the steps was already obvious. Unexpectedly, Xiong Wuliang, who did not know whether to live or die, had no intention of giving in or compromising!
Are you so confident? Ten thousand gold is not a small amount!
Is it enough for you, a poor man like Quyang County, to farm for decades? (Zhaoju still doesn’t know that Quyang County has developed very well).
Zhaoju, an old fox who had practiced in the court for many years, was actually provoked to a point of anger by Xiong Wuliang!
OK!
It's shameless, right?
Then don't blame me for being ruthless!
"Your Majesty, Mingjian, it's not the veteran who refuses to let me go, but the young master who insists on pestering me!"
"Since Mr. Mi Liang insists on making a bet, in addition to the bronze chariot handed down from his family, I will also add a set of ancient armor passed down from his family, which is worth a lot of gold - lest the uninformed people say that the old minister is bullying the small!"
As soon as he said this, the servants in the palace all looked at Zhaoju with respect.
As expected of Lord Lingyin!
This magnanimity is truly admirable!
Xiong Wuliang, you are really looking for death! You have to hit the south wall, right?
I thought that after two years of not seeing each other, this dandy and lazy guy could make any progress... Now it seems that he is still the same uneducated and ignorant person as before!
King Chu Huai glanced at Xiong Wuliang.
King Chu Huai still somewhat understood his nephew, who never suffered any loss.
Could it be that he was really sure?
Qu Yuan coughed lightly——
"The envoy from the State of Qin is still waiting outside the palace..."
"What exactly is going to happen, please make a decision as soon as possible, Your Majesty."
King Chu Huai looked at this and that.
I saw Zhaoju and Xiong Wuliang both had firm faces, as if they were convinced of each other.
Qu Principle is unabashedly optimistic about Xiong Wuliang.
King Chu could only sigh helplessly: "In that case, I will bear witness to the bet between the two of you."
"It's just that you are all important ministers of my great Chu. Don't let this bet hurt your friendship..."
Zhaoju and Xiong Wuliang said in unison: "I, I will obey the king's orders!"
King Huai of Chu's fat face twitched, frowned his eyebrows, and looked at the chamberlain who reported the news: "Please invite the envoy of the State of Qin to come in."
…
The envoy of the State of Qin who came in was dressed in black, with a black jade hairpin in his head, and he walked like a tiger.
This was the first time Xiong Wuliang saw Qin people, and he couldn't help but take a closer look.
The Qin envoy had an arrogant look on his face and looked like a strong man. He walked into the palace without looking sideways and regarded Zhaoju, Qu Yuan, Xiong Wuliang and others as nothing.
The envoy of the State of Qin raised his hand to the King of Chu, and his bent waist barely trembled slightly: "The envoy of the State of Qin is willing to pay homage to the king."
Xiong Wuliang secretly clicked his tongue.
Grandma, you are worthy of being a strong Qin person.
A mere messenger could be so arrogant.
How else to say that a weak country has no diplomacy.
After the defeat of Danyang, the people of Chu could not hold their head high in front of the people of Qin.
Xiong Wuliang felt very unhappy when he looked at the Qin people in front of him.
If others are afraid of you, I may not be afraid of you.
Although Bai Qi's name still makes Xiong Wuliang naturally wary, but...
After two years of time travel, the fiefdom has been completely renewed. If it develops in a few more years, it may not be the opponent of the powerful Qin people.
Even Bai Qi would be frightened when faced with a salvo of hundreds of thousands of arrows, right?
When King Chu Huai saw the Qin envoy acting like this, he frowned and asked patiently: "I wonder why the envoy came to my great Chu?"
