Chapter 232: King Wei VS Crown Prince
"I already knew that if you kid mentioned that you would take the money, you would have to run. Don't talk that nonsense to me, you tell me how much you're going to donate to me. Li Shimin said to Li Tai with a straight face.
"Brother Huang, don't you think it's okay to do this. I won't give it to you if you win the bet from me, I'll make it up to 100,000 taels and donate it to my father together. Li Tai looked at Li Chengqian and said.
Li Tai's words almost didn't make Li Chengqian angry. According to Li Tai, he was equivalent to donating 75,000 taels, and Li Tai took out 25,000 taels.
"Brother Huang, in terms of wealth and wealth, Brother Huang can't compare with you. But if you calculate it like this, the imperial brother seems to suffer a lot. Li Chengqian said helplessly to Li Tai.
"Where did the imperial brother suffer, it is equivalent to that you only took out 5,000 taels, but I took out 95,000. If you want to say that you are at a loss, it should be whether I am at a loss. Li Tai said to Li Chengqian with an aggrieved expression.
At this time, Li Shimin closed his eyes slightly and did not express his opinion. Because Li Shimin felt that if the two of them took out 100,000 taels of silver, it would be absolutely satisfying for themselves. As for how it was distributed, Li Shimin didn't care very much.
"Brother Huang, if my father doesn't let us donate silver, then you also have to pay me 75,000 taels of silver." Li Chengqian asked Li Tai.
"That's not necessarily, because it's not the imperial brother himself who is betting on the thirty-three worlds. According to the rules, only the bettor can receive the 75,000 taels of betting. Li Tai said to Li Chengqian with a smile.
"Listen to the meaning of the emperor's words, if I didn't go to get it myself, wouldn't you give it to others." Li Chengqian was angry in his heart, and looked at Li Tai and asked.
"Anyone who comes to the Thirty-Three Heavens to exchange money for gambling money, the Thirty-Three Heavens will give it all. However, if the person who came to collect the money could not produce the voucher, or there was an accident when taking the money back. But it doesn't have anything to do with my thirty-three heavens. Li Tai said with a wicked smile.
"Father, did you hear what the emperor said? This is a naked threat, and he also asks his father to make decisions for his sons. Li Chengqian got up and said to Li Shimin.
Li Chengqian knew that Li Tai was now messing around and trying to repay his debts. But he had no choice but to take him, so he could only complain to Li Shimin.
"I don't care who pays for this money, anyway, I must get 100,000 taels of silver." Li Shimin also said with an unreasonable expression.
Seeing that Li Shimin didn't intend to speak for himself at all, Li Chengqian said helplessly to Li Tai: "If Thirty-Three Heavens does such a thing, I am not afraid of smashing your gold-lettered signboard." ”
"If the people of the world knew, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince secretly cheated on his younger brother. I don't know what the people of the world will think of you, His Royal Highness the Prince. Li Tai looked at Li Chengqian with a playful expression and said.
"As the saying goes, if you want to see defeat, when did I cheat you." Li Cheng asked Li Tai angrily.
"It is estimated that the whole Chang'an now knows that Guo Muan, the champion rider who is favored by everyone. Lost to Zhao Hong at the last moment. ”
"If these two things are linked, what kind of result does the imperial brother think?" The smile on Li Tai's face, it was definitely how insidious and insidious it was.
After hearing Li Tai's words, Li Chengqian was speechless for a while, because if that was really the case, everyone would think that Li Chengqian was cheating in this horse race.
At that time, Li Chengqian will definitely become the target of public criticism, and his reputation will be completely ruined.
"If you do that, do you think you'll get money for a bet you place with another bookmaker? Your losses should be in the tens of thousands of taels. Li Chengqian said to Li Tai with a smile.
"Brother Huang doesn't seem to know me very well, I'm really not a person who is short of money. And then I can use that as a name to do it again. I'm sure everyone will support me. Li Tai said unhurriedly to Li Chengqian.
At this time, Li Chengqian was completely speechless, and he didn't know how to deal with Li Tai at all.
The eldest grandson Wujian really couldn't stand it, Li Tai bullied Li Chengqian like this, so he opened his mouth and said: "Qingque, is it a little too much for you to bully your imperial brother like this." ”
Even Li Shimin, who was closing his eyes tightly, also said: "If Qingque really does this, I think Cao Zhi's seven-step poem is more suitable for you." ”
"Father, queen mother, son-in-law is just joking with the royal brother, if son-in-law really wants to do this. And how can it be said here. Besides, Erchen is not Cao Pi. Li Tai smiled and said to Li Shimin and the eldest grandson.
"Then what do you think should be done with the 100,000 taels of silver given to me?" Li Shimin looked at Li Tai and asked.
"The sons and the royal brother each gave 50,000 taels, I don't know what the father thinks. Of course, the royal brother's gambling money in the sons and daughters will be given a lot of money. Li Tai said to Li Shimin with a smile.
"Gao Ming, what do you think of Qingque's suggestion?" Li Shimin opened his mouth and said to Li Chengqian.
"Erchen thinks it's very fair." After Li Chengqian let out a sigh of relief, he said to Li Shimin.
Now this ending is for Li Chengqian. That's the best. Otherwise, as Li Tai said, he will really be passive.
"Gao Ming, if you have such a chance. Will it be said as a joke like the blue finch? Li Shimin looked at Li Chengqian and asked.
Hearing Li Shimin's words, Li Chengqian couldn't help but tremble. Because Li Chengqian knew in his heart that he would never let go of such an opportunity.
However, in front of Li Shimin, Li Chengqian would never say this. Instead, he said to Li Shimin with a sincere face: "Erchen naturally will not use this vicious way to trap his brother. ”
"I have all the words of today in my heart, if there is a matter of boiling beans and burning beans one day, don't blame my subordinates for being ruthless." Li Shimin said to the two with a dignified face.
"Alright, alright, why should the day of joy be so serious. You have already donated 100,000 taels of silver to your father, so how much are you going to pay to your mother? The eldest grandson said.
"Queen Mother, my father needs silver for the sake of the country, you don't have to worry about food and clothing in the harem, what do you want so much silver for." Li Tai had a bitter gourd face and said to the eldest grandson.
"I know that your kid is an iron rooster, and now your sister Princess Changle has been married to the eldest grandson Chong. Isn't the queen mother supposed to prepare a dowry for him? The eldest grandson said after glancing at Li Tai.
This time, Li Chengqian spoke first: "The queen mother, the sons and daughters are willing to take out 25,000 taels each with the emperor as a dowry for the younger sister." ”
