Farm Girl Turns Everything Around: Sly Husband, Let's Farm

Chapter 1322: Chapter 1121: Entering the Palace to Find Yang Wenxiao_1 Chapter 1322: Chapter 1121: Entering the Palace to Find Yang Wenxiao_1 Fifty million taels of silver.

To be precise, fifty-seven million, four hundred and forty-three thousand taels, such an immense figure, Qiao Xiaomai didn’t expect Wu Yancai would acknowledge it.

Arguing here would lead nowhere; she could only go to the Palace to find Yang Wenxiao.

With Yang Wenxiao in the picture, the Wu family would certainly recognize the gambling debt.

If they didn’t, it would give Yang Wenxiao another reason to deal with the Wu family.

Compared to annihilation, paying sixty million taels was the better deal.

Tong Xingda was truly incredible, to earn such a vast amount of silver in the blink of an eye!

“Yes, going to the Palace to see Grandpa Emperor is indeed our best option. I, a prince at leisure, cannot handle such a serious matter. Let’s go, everyone to the Palace, no one is to leave,” Yang Ye said, thinking the same as Qiao Xiaomai, “All to the Palace, not a single person is to go.”

Yang Ye’s command was orders, and although he was but a leisurely prince, no one present was his superior; none dared to disobey his order.

Wu Yancai’s body shook uncontrollably. Upon hearing these words, his legs gave out and he collapsed back into his chair.

Yang Ye glanced at him and said, “Young Master Wu, fear not. I shall bring everything from this private room to the Palace, and I will also have your father, Lord Wu, summoned to the Palace. As long as you have evidence, you might not have to pay the fifty million taels.”

These words did not comfort Wu Yancai in the least; he had no evidence at the moment and certainly wouldn’t find any once inside the Palace.

Without evidence, given Yang Wenxiao’s favor towards Tong Sanlang and Qiao Xiaomai, Wu Yancai’s family must pay the fifty million taels.

Fifty million taels…

Even for an aristocratic family like the Wus, with centuries of heritage, this would be a devastating blow.

“Guards, carry Young Master Wu to the Palace,” Yang Ye ordered as Wu Yancai sat immobile. At his word, two guards stepped forward to take Wu Yancai.

Wu Yancai was forced to stand, dragged to the Palace like a soulless puppet.

Da’an Palace.

It was noon at this time, and Yang Wenxiao was having lunch. Upon hearing of this event, he found it novel and immediately summoned them to enter.

It was indeed a novel incident. First, Tong Xingda lost ten million in one day and night, and then Tong Sanlang, to repay his father’s debts, had no choice but to gamble. As a result, in one night and the following morning, he won fifty million. His ability to make money far surpassed Qiao Xiaomai’s.

He had the dining table cleared and, with keen interest, watched everyone in the hall. His gaze swept over the crowd, finally resting on Tong Sanlang.

“Sanlang, tell us the details, starting from when you entered the Hongxing Gambling House,” he commanded.

“Yes,” Tong Sanlang replied, stepping forward to begin his account.

He arrived in Capital City yesterday evening, first inquired with Shopkeeper Hong about the Gambling House’s location, and then went straight there.

Tong Xingda was confined in the Gambling House’s dark room; he met with Tong Xingda first, found out what games Tong Xingda played, then sought out the owner of the Gambling House.

Fortunately, Wu Yancai was there, and he proposed to gamble with Wu Yancai. Wu Yancai had a group of noblemen from aristocratic families with him, and those young aristocrats, finding the novelty, also joined the betting table.

They started off playing Fight the Landlord.

After a few rounds, he had wins and losses, then went on a losing streak of more than ten rounds.

After those rounds, he realized something was amiss. The playing cards in the Gambling House were specially made, with two numbers on each card. They would show whichever number they needed, enabling the two adversaries to coordinate against him, resulting in his consecutive losses in over ten rounds.

Once he exposed the cheating, they switched to normal cards. After dozens of rounds, he won several thousand taels.
