Chapter 515 Tired to the point of backache
"One hundred thousand taels of silver!"
The emperor gritted his teeth, this is not too little, right?
Yuan Baobao glanced at him listlessly: "Your Majesty, why are you so stingy now? If I win, I will earn you four million, but you only give me one hundred thousand taels?"
The emperor sighed, if you lose, I will have to pay two million taels.
Of course, he didn't say this to Yuan Baobao, for fear of undermining Yuan Baobao's confidence.
He should believe in his little granddaughter!
Yuan Baobao has never let him down!
However, thinking of the betting odds in the capital, there are not many people who win Yuan Baobao.
Otherwise...
The emperor's eyes were dim, and his own private treasury might be able to be filled.
...
This night was destined to make many people sleep poorly, and there were countless people who stayed awake all night.
But Yuan Baobao slept very soundly.
Liu Jiaojiao closed her eyes for a long time but couldn't fall asleep. She raised her foot and kicked Prince Yi beside her: "You are really careless. You can sleep like this?" Prince Yi was half
asleep. He hugged Liu Jiaojiao in his arms and said: "Jiaojiao, you are still pregnant now? You should go to sleep quickly!"
Liu Jiaojiao wanted to roll her eyes: "Husband, do you think the baby can win tomorrow?"
Although she had been convincing herself these two days, the reputation of the Eagle King Fighting Chicken was too loud outside. How could she sleep?
Prince Yi saw that she was not sleepy at all, so he lowered his head and kissed her forehead: "Trust our daughter, okay?"
Liu Jiaojiao: "I'm just afraid of father..."
Until now, the emperor doted on Yuan Baobao, but if she lost this time, the emperor might blame her for the loss of three million taels of silver.
"My husband, I've thought about it. If I'm not careful..."
Liu Jiaojiao wanted to say that if she lost accidentally, Prince Yi lowered his head and kissed the chattering little mouth fiercely.
Liu Jiaojiao was heavy now, so she couldn't eat meat, but she could still drink soup occasionally.
Liu Jiaojiao was confused by the kiss and raised her little hand to struggle, but how could she be a match for Prince Yi?
After struggling for a few times, she was exhausted and collapsed in Prince Yi's arms.
She could still hear the thumping heartbeat of the man's strong chest.
"Aren't you worried at all?"
After an unknown amount of time, the little mouth finally regained its freedom. Liu Jiaojiao's cheeks were red as blood, and her heart was beating wildly.
Prince Yi laughed softly: "Don't worry, I'll take care of everything!"
Liu Jiaojiao...she just couldn't let go.
"Jiaojiao, if you still can't sleep, how about we do something else?"
The man's hand dishonestly reached into the woman's clothes, and Liu Jiaojiao was so scared that she quickly grabbed his big hand: "You, don't mess around!"
Liu Jiaojiao's voice trembled. Her belly was so big now, she couldn't do anything stupid!
Prince Yi chuckled, put his thin lips next to her ear, and bit her ear gently: "Jiaojiao, I asked the imperial physician, he said it's okay to be careful!"
"I don't want to!" Liu Jiaojiao touched her belly. It was so big, she wouldn't do anything reckless?
"Just once! Don't worry, it must be very gentle!"
The man said, covering her gently, "It won't hurt you and the baby!"
Ups and downs, lingering in the middle of the night.
...
The next day, when Liu Jiaojiao woke up, it was already bright.
Prince Yi was gone.
Hearing the noise, Lu Luo and Lu Yi came in with their mouths covered and giggled.
"Princess, you finally woke up! The little princess has been waiting outside!"
Liu Jiaojiao's cheeks flushed, remembering that Prince Yi had been fooling around with her last night. She held her belly and said, "Little girl, why did you get up so early today?" People
who didn't know would think that the sun was rising from the west. Yuan Baobao rarely gets up early on her own initiative.
Lu Luo covered her mouth and chuckled, "Isn't the little princess worried about the chicken fighting competition later?"
This matter has caused a lot of commotion, and the three million taels of silver were paid by the emperor from the national treasury. The emperor will also be present at the competition.
So the time was set after the morning court, and those civil and military officials who wanted to go and watch the excitement could go together.
Of course, even if no one said this, those people would go!
Most of them have placed bets.
But it's hard to say who the bet was placed for. It's also the rule that the bettor keeps it secret for the time being.
If it was accidentally leaked like Yuan Baobao did, it must be related to me, but no one has investigated it deeply.
Liu Jiaojiao got up in a hurry. Prince Yi was indeed cautious last night, but it felt more intense than usual.
Thinking of this, Liu Jiaojiao couldn't help blushing and her hands and feet were sore. She couldn't let the little girl find out later, otherwise she didn't know how she would complain.
Yuan Baobao, who was still playing in the yard, heard that Liu Jiaojiao had woken up, and hurriedly trotted in: "Mother, mother! Do you know what the current odds are?"
The little girl had already asked someone to inquire, and now the odds were closed, and the object of the bet could no longer be changed.
"How much?"
Liu Jiaojiao was also very curious. Yesterday, the odds were exaggerated to 1 to 10, but later some people also bet on Yuan Baobao's side, but they bet that the people from the Bear Country would win more.
Yuan Baobao looked annoyed: "Now it's 1 to 7. Alas, I don't know who bet so much on me, so that I can earn less money!"
Liu Jiaojiao...
"It's a good thing that someone supports you and believes in you, little baby. The result is not important, as long as you participate well!"
Liu Jiaojiao didn't want to put too much pressure on her daughter.
Lu Luo smiled while combing Liu Jiaojiao's hair: "I believe that the little princess will definitely win!"
Yuan Baobao looked at Lu Luo with approval. This girl is not bad, she is a perceptive person.
Lu Yi also hurriedly spoke up to express her determination: "I also believe in the little princess!"
Yuan Baobao laughed happily, his voice clear and crisp: "Aunt Luluo, Aunt Luyi, tell me the truth, did you all bet on me to win?"
Yuan Baobao heard that many servants in the mansion went to place bets.
Luluo was surprised: "Little princess, how did you know?"
Luyi was also puzzled: "Little princess, did you hear it from them?"
Yuan Baobao stretched out his chubby hand and shook it at them: "I am a dignified little princess, do I need to go out to listen? I can tell with just a few calculations!"
"You two, your fortune will come in the next few days, and you will make a small fortune!"
"Oh, to be precise, it should be two fortunes!"
Yuan Baobao smiled deeply, and the two girls looked surprised: "Really?"
Yuan Baobao said no more, she found that many people in the mansion had good fortune recently.
Of course there are also bad luck!
But who can be blamed? Isn't it their fault for not trusting the little princess?
"When did I ever lie to you?"
