, the grand ceremony of the four nations officially begins!”"Ooo—ooo—" A long, drawn-out horn sounded, echoing throughout the entire Mingyun Mountain. It startled all the birds from their nests and ca..."Hee hee, I'm a gambler and accept my defeat. If you are not as skilled, don't blame me! Pay up quickly!" Su Qingying didn't care about anything else; all she wanted now was the money, to fleece this fat sheep!

Shangguan Jinghong resigned himself to fate and patted his waist, but he couldn't find a single coin after checking his whole body. His handsome face stiffened; it seemed that all his silver had been won by this girl.

Turning his head to meet Su Qingying's wolfish gaze, he gave an awkward smile, nervously wiping a large drop of sweat and saying, "Ahem, Xiao Ying'er, that is, this palace didn't bring so much silver today, why don't we just forget it Gambling is for pleasure!"

"That's right, Your Highness. Xi'er lost all her silver to you. Xi'er truly has no silver left." Xi'er cried with a mournful face; she had saved for so many years and almost all of her savings were about to be swept away.

Upon hearing they wanted to shirk their debt, Su Qingying immediately refused, shouting: "No way! Absolutely not! If you don't pay back the money, I'll take your pants! I don't believe that no one wants the pants of the illustrious Prince of Beiling!"

"A flock of crows whooshed overhead in perfect formation, leaving Shangguan Jinghong and Xi'er with their heads full of black lines. They were speechless."

Thinking about it, Su Qingying nodded secretly, finding this method feasible. She then said, "What are you standing there for Quickly take them off! Do I have to do it myself"

A gust of cold wind swept a fallen leaf past, and the two petrified expressions softened once more.

"Princess..." Xier's eyes welled up with tears, could she possibly not take it off

Shangguan Jinghong was also extremely speechless. He instinctively clutched his crotch, afraid that she would rip it off, "You little brat, you're blind to money."

"That's better than going into your butt," she replied.

Shangguan Jinghong : “……”

Xier: "..."

Of course, the two of them were absolutely unwilling to take off their trousers. After a heated debate between the three, Shangguan Jinghong and Xi'er reluctantly agreed and signed a ruthless document, swearing that if they couldn't repay the debt in the future, they would willingly offer up their trousers.

Holding the deed, Su Qingying succeeded triumphantly, her eyes curved like a crescent moon, radiant and captivating. "How about it, do you want to play another round"

Shangguan Jinghong blinked her eyes, looking at the deed in her hand, with lingering fear. "Forget it, if I play with you any longer, this palace might become the poorest prince in history. When I go back and study this Landlord's War thoroughly, I'll come back and continue to fight with you."

"Hmph, I'm not boasting, even if you study for a few years, you wouldn't be my match." Without forcing them, Su Qingying carefully put away the letter like a precious treasure. In her past life, she was a dark horse in the gambling world, proficient in all sorts of gambling techniques. She could get any card she wanted, let alone something as basic as Doudizhu.

Shangguan Jinghong was stunned. Was she being so honest This was really discouraging to their ambition!

"Little Ying'er, has anyone told you to be humble"

"Has anyone ever told you that being too humble is just pride" Su Qingying smiled playfully at him.

"...You win." The prince choked, falling silent again.

After an afternoon of mahjong, the sun had set, painting the clouds on the horizon in a stunning array of colors. It was breathtakingly beautiful.

When it was getting late, Shangguan Jinghong, with a mountain of debt weighing on him, slunk away.

After a relaxing bath, Su Qingying piled all the silver notes she had won today onto the bed. She then lay on her back in the pile of silver notes, looking completely content and happy.

"So much money! Hahaha!" A devilishly charming laughter echoed, she held up a handful of silver bills and scattered them, inhaling the scent of the bills, she suddenly felt her life was complete. "Ah, this is the smell of money! I really want to be buried in money and sleep."

“Bang!” A deafening crash, her door was kicked open violently.

“Who……uh, crap!” Hearing the noise, Su Qingying was just about to raise her head to see what had happened when a big hand clamped down on her neck and pulled her backwards. Her head slammed against the bed frame, making her eyes flash with stars.

"Su Qingying!" A low and cold voice rose, carrying overwhelming fury that crashed down upon her.

The voice was light and familiar, and upon seeing it was Xuan Yuan Luo Chen, the flames in her heart surged. A pair of phoenix eyes seemed to be covered in frost, cold to the bone, “Xuan Yuan Luo Chen, what do you want to do!”

"How dare you! Was it you who made the medicine that Shu Fei gave to me!" He roared in a low voice, tightening his grip on Su Qingying's neck. His breathing was erratic, and his eyes were bloodshot, clearly showing that he had been affected by Su Qingying's specially formulated love potion.

"Xuanyuan Luocheng, everything must be based on evidence. Don't slander good people. I don't know who Shu Fei is! I am the fifth princess of Dongyue Kingdom. If you dare to do anything to me, Dongyue will never let it go!" Su Qingying panted and refused to admit it.

It goes without saying that it must be Shufei, that idiotic fool, who messed things up and even sold herself out in the process. Thinking about this, she cursed Shufei's ancestors fiercely in her heart.

Just kidding, would she admit to it If she did, she'd be finished! To set a trap for the monarch of a nation, even Xiao as the prince of Dongyue wouldn't necessarily save her. This time, she really has brought fire upon herself.

Xuan Yuan Luo Chen's amber eyes narrowed dangerously, tinged with a bloody chill. "You think I'm afraid You dared to plot and have Shu Fei give me a love potion back then, you should understand what the consequences would be! I will use you to counteract the effects of the poison now!"

"Xuan Yuan Luo Chen, you dare! To go looking for other women during your heat cycle! Anyway, waiting for the woman you favor is like the vast river of Qing Jiang, you let me go!" Hearing this, Su Qing Ying's beautiful eyebrows pressed together, coldly staring at him, the coldness in her eyes made people's feet cold.

No one understands the properties of this aphrodisiac better than she does. Even someone with unwavering willpower couldn't resist its effects. That's why she absolutely had to get away from him immediately, or else she wouldn't stand a chance against Xuanyuan Luocheng's advances. She might as well just surrender!

"Hmph, what is there that I dare not do!" He snorted coldly, loosening his grip on her neck and directly grabbing both of her hands with one big hand, lifting them high above her head.

Her frail body was pressed beneath him, her hands unable to move. Su Qingying was truly frightened now.

She struggled frantically, gritting her teeth and warning in a cold voice, but there seemed to be a hint of fear she couldn't detect: "Damn it! Let me go, Xuan Yuan Luo Chen, if you dare to touch a single hair on my head today, I will definitely castrate you!"

Unfortunately, Su Qingying's warning seemed to have no effect on Xuan Yuan Luocheng. He took out a white porcelain bottle from his body and shook it in front of her, successfully causing her pretty face to change color abruptly. A sneer appeared on Xuan Yuan Luocheng's handsome face after seeing this.

"How You also have times when you're afraid Too late! When you plotted against me, did you ever think about this consequence Do you remember what this is in my hand Hmm"

Su Qingying's phoenix eyes widened instantly, her gaze fixed on the porcelain bottle in his hand.

This was the spring powder she had originally given to Helen Qing'er. Unexpectedly, that stupid Helen Qing'er didn't use it all! She even secretly hid some away!

Staring intently at the packet of Chunhua Powder in his hand, Su Qingying's nerves tensed instantly. Her phoenix eyes held a hint of alertness as she warned, "What are you trying to do I warn you, don't mess around!" of Xi Ming and the personal guard unit.After waiting for a while, Ximing and his close associates finally arrived at the prince's residence.Xuan Yuan Che sat high on his fiery red steed, gracefully c...
