Chapter 903: Chapter 903: The Wanlai Gambling House Wager
Ye Jiu and the others, along with Daoba, moved to the outer hall, and under the watchful eyes of many, the gambling session began.
Originally, the gamblers who were engrossed in their bets paused and all took notice of the situation over here.
Princess Changfu personally dealt with the cards, while His Highness stood by, making this gambling session not only interesting due to the social statuses involved but also significant because of its enormous stakes—a rare event indeed.
Once all the preparations were complete, Daoba politely gestured to Ye Jiu and spoke, "Don’t say that I, Daoba, am bullying the Commandery Princess, please proceed first!"
Ye Jiu glanced down at the dice and dice cup in front of her. She chuckled softly, "I’ve never actually played this game before, better you go first, so I can have a chance to learn."
"Hahaha, alright, since the Commandery Princess has spoken, I won’t be shy," Daoba replied, picking up his dice cup and shaking it vigorously, a display worthy of admiration.
"Please, Commandery Princess..." After finally placing down the dice cup, Daoba gestured to Ye Jiu.
Ye Jiu chuckled softly, then reached out and picked up the dice cup on the table, using the other hand to place the dice inside.
This action provoked laughter from the onlookers.
Because, from this action alone, it was obvious Ye Jiu was an amateur, yet she dared to play dice with Daoba.
Looking at the stack of silver notes in front of Ye Jiu, it seemed they would soon become part of the Wanlai Gambling House’s silver coins, held in Daoba’s hands.
And upstairs, someone in a private room was mocking as well.
With such skills, if she wins this time, it could only be said that the luck on this girl’s side is indeed defying the heavens.
Downstairs, Ye Jiu slightly shook the dice cup a few times, then placed it back on the table, yet her expression remained solemn without a hint of panic.
Daoba’s smile was completely unconcealed as he addressed Ye Jiu, "This round, I’ll go first."
Saying this, Daoba revealed the dice cup, and his smile widened.
"Simply comparing size, six sixes, so no one can accuse me of bullying the Commandery Princess. For this round, if the Commandery Princess also rolls six sixes, I’ll concede a bit and you win!" According to casino rules, Daoba, as the dealer, would win even if the result was a tie.
If Daoba weren’t certain of his victory, he wouldn’t have made such arrogant statements in front of everyone.
Ye Jiu lightly parted her red lips, "No need."
With that, she uncovered the dice cup in front of her, her smile growing yet her eyes not glancing at the table.
But the crowd was still stunned.
"How is it possible?" Daoba was incredulous.
Ye Jiu lowered her gaze slightly, glanced, and smiled, "Six sixes plus one, I win."
"The Commandery Princess is cheating! Daoba is not convinced."
In a proper dice shake, who would crush the dice to pieces?
"Cheating?" Ye Jiu looked at Daoba with a smile, "Both the dice cup and dice are provided by the Wanlai Gambling House; if there is talk of cheating, it must be the gambling house cheating, right?"
Daoba dared not speak; with this incident, he had already predicted his own fate.
Daoba felt intense regret at this moment; it should never have happened that he provoked Princess Changfu.
Initially, his task was to target the eldest son of the Royal Residence, yet he arrogantly gambled against Princess Changfu.
Now it’s over; even if the gambling session at Wanlai Gambling House was approved by the master, the master won’t spare him.
