Yang Tinghe has been able to become a member of this cabinet until today. How can he be such a smart person? Why don’t he understand the importance of this bet between Ye Chunqiu and King Xing, and why don’t he understand Li Dongyang’s plans in his heart? Just...

Yang Tinghe thought for a while and said, "Mr. Li, where is there a miracle in this world? You and I know that the world's knowledge is so complicated. Since King Xing and his son dare to make such a request and dare to respond to the gambling game, they will inevitably take the three questions used in the gambling game as their lifeblood. Their questions must be extremely tricky and weird. Not to mention Ye Chunqiu, even if they are a saint, they must be absolutely unanswered."

Li Dongyang just looked up at Yang Tinghe and then remained silent.

The saints cannot answer even when they are alive.

This is indeed not empty talk.

Li Dongyang looked at the Canxue outside the window and showed a little calmness. After a while, he said: "Menny, I am struggling in front of this family. Doing anything is a constraint. It is not easy to be a good family. It is hard to cook without rice! Besides, I am still stupid, but now I am unwilling to abandon His Majesty, and in this position of the assistant, but I really want to do something, for this court, to repay the kindness of the late emperor, for the country, and for the country. I also know that the chance of winning this bet is minimal, and it is almost impossible. But with this opportunity, I still can't help but give hope. Okay, let's not talk about it, let's have tea."

His eyes were gloomy, but the deepest part of this turbid gaze still couldn't help but have a glimmer of hope.

Speaking of this Forbidden City, there is another person who is worried about it, Zhu Houzhao, the owner of this Forbidden City.

Zhu Houzhao suddenly felt something was in her heart.

In fact, when the betting started in the court, Zhu Houzhao was still dizzy, but when he thought about it slowly, something was wrong. Ye Chunqiu seemed to have lost steadily. This is not a question of Ye Chunqiu's ability. In fact, Ye Chunqiu could not answer these three questions without restrictions.

"If this guy...if he loses, three million silver patterns will be gone. This is not to treat silver as money."

When Zhu Houzhao thought of this, he couldn't help but feel distressed. He loved money and did not take other people's money seriously, but he felt that Ye Chunqiu's money was half his own money and his good brother.

He had no brothers since childhood, and was alone in the Eastern Palace. There were no people of similar age. They were all serious masters and companions who had no objections. When he became the emperor, he became even more lonely, so Zhu Houzhao checked this friendship more than ever.

Thinking that his good brother's money was about to be gone, he started to feel sore and then he had insomnia.

I haven't slept this night.

It seems quite embarrassing to lose. The money is gone, the woman is gone, and the face is gone. I wonder if the Spring and Autumn Period will be sad?

Fortunately, Zhu Houzhao did not do anything at all. At least the Jinyiwei would report to Zhu Houzhao.

He looked at the report very seriously, and he also had hope in his heart. Perhaps there would be miracles in the spring and autumn.

But when he saw the report, Zhu Houzhao's face became a little stiff, and he saw that it said...

Early yesterday morning, I accompanied my wife and son back to my parents' home. I came back at noon. In the afternoon, I went to have a drink with Zhang Jin and some juren.

This morning, I went to the research institute again and checked the accounts of the China Merchants Association.

Logically speaking, there are only a few days before the end of the year. Now that you have a bet, you always have to win, right?

But looking at this guy, he is obviously idle. Even if you hug Buddhism temporarily, have a more correct attitude and read a little book casually, it can make people feel relieved. But now it seems that you don’t take this gambling seriously.

"Your Majesty, it's time to have a meal." Liu Jin bowed to Zhu Houzhao with a smile and reminded him.

Zhu Houzhao threw the report and looked very bad, and said angrily: "I'm not eating it, you're such a bastard."

Liu Jin felt that he was very wronged, but he didn't even dare to say anything. He hurriedly bowed to the ground and said with a miserable face: "I... I deserve to die."

Zhu Houzhao wanted to get angry, but suddenly found that he had sent a wrong partner. After thinking about it, he narrowed his eyes and said, "Is this a sign that is more obvious? It's the time when Chunqiu was studying hard at night and deliberately set up during the day? Scared, he has always been so cunning, yes, it must be like this." Then, he pursed his lips and said, "I have to send someone to stare at the Zhenguo Mansion, especially at night."

"Ah..." Liu Jin looked at Zhu Houzhao in surprise and couldn't help but say, "Hasn't your Majesty said before that you are not allowed to spy on the Ye family?"

"I'll go to spy today. I'll report everything he did, no matter what he did."

Zhu Houzhao's temper has always been like this. How dare Liu Jin disobey him? He had to say, "Yes, yes, yes, I know."

The next morning, Zhu Houzhao obviously didn't sleep well again, but Liu Jin quickly handed over the report.

This report is indeed a matter of detail and full of thousands of words.

Zhu Houzhao opened it and looked carefully. When did she eat, when did she go to the old lady Ye to find out about illness, when did she go back to the room, and what noise came from the room.

When Zhu Houzhao saw the sound, his eyes widened. What he said was that there was a faint sound of shaking the bed, which stopped after half an hour.

"Half an hour?" Zhu Houzhao couldn't help but squinted, and then couldn't help laughing! What medicine did this guy take, and he couldn't help but whisper: "Beasts in clothes!"

But... Obviously, Ye Chunqiu was not interested in studying or making up for the so-called homework. It seemed that he had the energy to study some things about his bedmates.

Alas, sighed, Zhu Houzhao sat down and said for a long time: "Panpa Liu."

"I'm here."

Zhu Houzhao said: "What news is there?"

Liu Jin hurriedly said: "The factory guard reported that there were some suspicious people around the Ye family. It seemed that they were from King Xing. The father and son of King Xing seemed to be sure to win this time."

Zhu Houzhao suddenly felt a little energetic and said, "How can I see it?"

Liu Jin said: "The father and son have already started preparing for the marriage."

Zhu Houzhao's face was a little unfavorable. He found that he loved the house and the mistress, and he became more and more disgusted with King Xing and his son!

I haven't made the final decision yet. You father and son are so bold and really treat yourself as a dish.

However, the bet seemed to have nodded by himself... He held his chin and said thoughtfully: "I think about it carefully, I can only cheat."
