His crisp voice sounded in his ears. Burning eyes, Xu Tianan gnashed, “I just agree that the first round bet is a finger. I did not specify what the stakes were for the last 4 rounds. Who allowed you to make that decision?
This sickly little bitch seems to be quite skilled. He did not dare to face it directly. But since he had cut off his five fingers, he would cut off his four fingers as compensation.
Murong Xue glanced at him, “After the first dog died, you didn't say a word before taking out four more words. Isn't that a continuation of the bet from the first round? If you've been preparing to change the stakes, why don't you say anything? Now that the five rounds are over, you claim that it's unfair? Don't you think that's too shameless?
"You!" Xu Tianan choked. Back then, he had only thought of killing the weak little dog to save his finger. He didn't think that far!
“If you want to gamble, then you must be ready to lose. There were so many people in this colosseum watching. Our bet is fair. Even if you want to fight in the Dali Temple court, I have no doubt. If you're not resigned, and ready to find someone to teach me a lesson, that's okay. I will be at the Marquis House waiting for your arrival anytime!”
The dogs in the colosseum are for the pleasure of the guests. After buying it, the dogs became the private property of the guests. Whether dead or alive, guests can take it with them.
Hongxiu's maid followed behind Murong Xue, calmly walking out.
Murong Ye raised his eyebrows and glanced at the bloodstained Xu Tianan, who was filled with anger and unwillingness to admit defeat, and hurriedly followed, "Sister, wait for me!"
In the second-floor room of the colosseum sat two men who had watched the entire scene play out in front of them.
“He made playboy Capital so miserable just by choosing a dog casually. This Young Madam Murong is so amazing, ” the brown-robed man praised, full of astonishment. He glanced towards the white-robed man next to him and said with a smile, "What do Your Majesty think?"
The white-robed man like jade his fingers lightly stroked the white marble wine cup, his eyes slightly lowered, and did not say a word.
The brown-robed man did not mind and continued talking to himself, “Also, the way he grabbed the dagger and the finger-cutting movement of – was so smooth and fast that it was unbelievable. He must have inherited that from the first Marquis. And the rumors in the Capital really spread that she was a helpless, useless and weak young woman, what a funny thing!”
The man in white lifted his eyes and looked towards the silhouette of Murong Xue's dedication that was slowly walking further and further away. His obsidian eyes were emitting something incomprehensible.
The Colosseum and the Marquis Mansion were not far away. After walking out the front door, Murong Xue did not return to the horse carriage, but walked with the little dog and walked slowly, casually admiring the beauty of the ancient road and infrastructure.
Murong Ye followed behind him, smiling affectionately, "Sister, how do you know that this weak little dog is so strong?"
After fighting dogs for many years, he could be considered to have developed a pair of expert eyes when examining dogs, but when it came to this little dog, he had seen it from left to right, top to bottom, and still do not know how to say that it is a very strong dog.
“Because it is not an ordinary dog, but a Tibetan mastiff!” Murong Xue calmly explained. The Tibetan Mastiff is assertive and good at attacking; a normal dog is by no means a match for him.
Tibetan Mastiff? What kind of dog is that?
Murong Xue often fought with dogs and had developed an understanding of the types of dogs, but this was the first time she had heard of the Tibetan mastiff. He had racked his brain yet he was unable to find anything about it. However, this did not prevent him from developing his love for this dog, “Kak, can you give me this Tibetan mastiff? I will exchange it for 5,000 taels, no, 10,000 taels.”
But when he thought about how this young man was actually famous in the Capital as a playboy; playing with horses and birds, and not willing to learn, he said, "I don't like money."
Uh, that's right. Her older sister lives in the Mansion where food, clothing, accommodation, and materials have all been taken care of. He also did not easily exit the Mansion, and thus did not have much of a chance to spend. It was very inappropriate for him to exchange money for a Tibetan mastiff.
“Then how about giving you some rare clothing suits and jewelry,” Murong Ye said with a smile, all girls love pretty clothes and jewelry, and her sister should be no exception.
Murong Xue kept ruining her negotiations mercilessly, "Whatever clothes or jewelry you can buy, I can too."
Alright. The best clothes come from the Yixiang Court and the best jewelry in the Capital comes from the Duobao Court. No matter if it was him who was shopping, or his sister, the two of them would be able to buy the same item.
"Then what does it take for you to give me that Tibetan mastiff?" Murong Ye's sad voice was filled with disappointment.
“There are so many dogs in the colosseum, you can buy one more. Why do you want my Tibetan mastiff? Tibetan mastiffs are fierce and loyal and very rare." Murong Xue prepared to bring him back to the Marquis Mansion and use him as a guard dog so that there was no need to live a life of battle in the arena anymore.
“Matiff Tibet is very strong! All the other dogs I thought were good had been bitten to death!” Murong Ye looked towards the mastiff, his eyes filled with passion, "If you give it to me, I can use it to fight with others and win back all the money that has been lost ..."
Murong Xue suddenly stopped. Murong Ye did not notice it and almost hit him. He staggered a few steps before regaining his balance and asked, puzzled, "What's up, Sister?"
Murong Xue did not reply but coldly looked straight ahead.
Murong Xue followed his gaze only to see dozens of servants carrying many suitcases standing in front of the Marquis House. The trunk is made of incense wood, decorated with many round gold studs; dignified yet not lost its splendor. One look and one will know that it is expensive. The items inside were naturally more valuable.
A middle-aged man in dark blue robes walked out of the crowd towards the Marquis Mansion.
"Seneschal Wang!" Murong Ye softly exclaimed.
Upon hearing the exclamation, the middle-aged man stopped and looked up. Seeing that it was Murong Ye and Murong Xue, he joined hands to salute, "Young Marquis, Miss Murong!"
Murong Xue's father was originally the commander of the three armies. He was seriously injured while fighting on the front lines 10 years ago and died of his injuries. When her mother heard the bad news, she was so distressed that she died not long after, leaving the twins four years old. Thus, the Marquis was now fourteen-year-old Murong Ye.
Murong Ye hummed calmly and pointed towards the long line of processions carrying suitcases, and asked puzzledly, "Seneschal Wang, what are you doing?"
Seneschal Wang lightly smiled, "Your Majesty, I have been ordered by His Majesty to bring the dowry and negotiate a day to marry Miss Murong!"
Murong Ye's eyes twinkled. Her sister is getting married, that's good news, though, “My sister will be Prince Jing's wife. Ye Yichen had to personally give the bride price. Why would he let you bring the dowry? Also, according to the tradition of the Princess, the dowry should be 120 stems, why only carry 64 stems? Prince Jing's Household was the Prince's household, and Prince Jing had just delivered a war feat, he shouldn't be short of money, right?
