The middle-aged man smiled and said: "Of course not. The princess is proficient in formations. We want to cooperate with the princess from the bottom of our hearts."
As soon as Tang Miaoxin heard this, she understood that the cooperation between Dayan and Qi State was not absolutely trustworthy.
They cooperated with her to protect Qi State.
The formation skills she showed in the Kuye Temple, coupled with the fake drawings they saw just now, made them think she was valuable.
In addition, she just said that the Dingbei Palace wanted to start a rebellion. They thought this could be used to their advantage, so they wanted to force her to stay.
They actually thought they could keep her, and she didn't know whether to praise them for not knowing how high the sky was or for being overconfident.
She glanced at the middle-aged man and sat back down in her previous position. This time she directly lifted her legs up onto the small table and shook her head twice.
Middle-aged man: "..."
Zhao Yan: "..."
She is too vulgar!
Tang Miaoxin spread her hands on the back of the chair and said calmly: "We can cooperate if we want, let's take a gamble first!"
"If you can defeat me, we will cooperate. If you lose, give me the smelting technique."
The middle-aged man originally had the intention of stalling for time. If she resisted fiercely, it would be troublesome. What she said was exactly what he wanted.
He smiled slightly and said: "Okay! I wonder what the princess wants to bet on?"
He has been in charge of the gambling house for many years and was originally a first-class gambling expert.
In his opinion, Tang Miaoxin was a princess who had returned to the Qian Dynasty. A woman of her background could at most just bet with others and fight with others.
It couldn't be easier to win against a novice like her.
Tang Miaoxin asked him: "Is it okay to bet on anything?"
The middle-aged man was very confident in his gambling skills: "I can accompany you in anything!"
A smile appeared at the corner of Tang Miaoxin's mouth, and her clear eyes curved slightly in a smile: "I like confident people like you. You will have a bright future in the future!"
Ning Changping was so excited when he saw her smiling like this. Her sister-in-law was going to make a big move!
Sure enough, the next moment I heard Tang Miaoxin say: "I haven't gambled with others much, so let's play a simple game and guess odd or even!"
The middle-aged man picked up the dice cup he carried and put it on the table and said, "Okay!"
You can guess the size of the dice, or you can guess the odd or even number. This is indeed the simplest gambling method.
Tang Miaoxin reached out and pulled out his dice cup and said, "It's so boring to guess odd and even numbers with dice."
"How about we guess whether your fingers are single or double!"
The middle-aged man was stunned for a moment, then laughed. He stretched out his hands and said, "My hands are intact, of course both."
He thought she was deliberately making such a simple bet in order to cooperate with them, and his eyes were full of pride: "Princess, you lost!"
Tang Miaoxin also laughed: "Isn't it too early for you to say whether you win or lose so quickly?"
After she finished speaking, she suddenly stood up, took the middle-aged man's hand, raised her foot and stepped on his hand on the case.
With lightning speed, she slashed the short knife at her waist and cut off the little finger of his left hand.
This series of changes happened so fast that no one could react.
Tang Miaoxin blew lightly on his finger: "You are missing one finger, so your finger is odd now, I win."
Zhao Yan: "..."
The Eleventh Prince: "..."
Middle-aged man: "..."
At this time, he was so painful that fine cold sweat broke out on his forehead. He glared at her and said, "You!"
Tang Miaoxin raised her hand and put the short knife on his neck and said, "What about me? Are you not convinced? If not, just hold it in!"
The thugs at the door wanted to rush in, but Tang Miaoxin made a cut on the middle-aged man's neck with a knife and said coldly: "Get out!"
At this moment, she no longer looked as lazy as before, her whole aura was fully activated, and she was filled with murderous intent.
The thugs threw rat-proof weapons, and they didn't dare to come over for a while.
Tang Miaoxin looked at the middle-aged man and said: "If you really want to win this game, you can cut off another finger yourself, so that it becomes double again."
"But if you cut one, I can cut another. I just want to know how many of your fingers you can spare."
The middle-aged man was originally a ruthless character, but this was the first time he encountered someone like Tang Miaoxin who didn't play by the rules at all.
He took a deep breath and said, "Is the princess determined to fall out with us?"
"Bah!" Tang Miaoxin said coldly: "I was very sincere when I came here today, but it's a pity that you are not sincere at all."
"First test me with fake drawings, and then use force to force me."
"Why didn't you check before you did these things? I always take the soft side rather than the hard side."
"It's easy to just cut off one of your fingers today!"
After she finished speaking, she helped the middle-aged man out and walked out. Today's matter has almost reached this stage.
Zhao Yan said from the side: "Don't be so impulsive first, how about we talk again?"
What he was concerned about at this time was smelting.
As long as he obtains the smelting technique, even if he cannot destroy the first city this time, he can still make great achievements when he returns to Zhao Kingdom and stabilize his position as the crown prince.
Tang Miaoxin said coldly: "Hey, you want to chat? I'm afraid that others may not be sincere in chatting with you. They will be stalling for time and want to kill us."
Zhao Yan felt that the matter was not as bad as she said. He said to the middle-aged man: "Let all your subordinates step back and let's have a good chat."
The middle-aged man hurriedly said: "Princess, please put down the knife first. I promise not to embarrass you. Let's sit down and talk again."
Tang Miaoxin could tell at a glance what Zhao Yan was up to.
She brought him here today to make him and Dayan enemies, not to form an alliance with Dayan.
The corners of her lips twitched slightly and she said, "Okay! But you have to send us out first, and if you want to chat, we have to change the place to talk."
Her request was not too much, so the middle-aged man agreed and asked all his subordinates to step back.
When a group of them went downstairs, several sharp arrows were shot at them.
Tang Miaoxin immediately hid behind the middle-aged man. In just the blink of an eye, he was shot into a hornet's nest.
Ning Changping had already drawn his sword and blocked most of the sharp arrows.
The middle-aged man's subordinates prevented them from leaving and got into a fight with the people shooting arrows outside.
For a time, the entire casino was in chaos.
Ning Changping escorted Tang Miaoxin downstairs. Zhao Yan originally thought he would get some light today, but he didn't expect to encounter this problem again.
When he saw the middle-aged man die, he knew it was all over!
He was unwilling, but at this moment, he could only choose to save his life first, so he followed Tang Miaoxin and rushed downstairs under the escort of the guards.
When they arrived downstairs, Tang Miaoxin shouted: "Changping!"
Ning Changping understood immediately, picked up a big knife, and cut off the beam with one blow. In an instant, half of the entire wooden building collapsed.
Tang Miaoxin pulled Ning Changping and ran out quickly. Halfway through, she felt someone was watching her.
