Chapter 507: Two couplets, and you call this respecting the old and loving the young?

As the words fell, the entire court was shocked.

Bet his life?

The eyes of Wang Zhong, Lu Wen, and others changed suddenly, and they became excited.

Wu Zhao and Shangguan Wan'er were also shocked.

Wu Zhao subconsciously said, "Gao Yang, do not be impulsive!"

She would rather the entire Great Qian be humiliated than have Gao Yang lose his life; in her heart, Gao Yang's importance to Great Qian at this moment far outweighed these empty names!

But Gao Yang raised his hand, interrupting Wu Zhao, "Your Majesty, this person and the Great Chu delegation intend to ride on the neck of Great Qian and defecate; I cannot tolerate him today!"

"I am determined to bet my life against him; I ask Your Majesty for permission!"

This resolute voice and righteous tone moved the Zhao and Yan delegations, and they were even full of admiration, but Wu Zhao heard something wrong.

If danger came, even Chu Ningyu might protect her, but Gao Yang would definitely be the first to run.

In the Battle of Changancheng, if it weren't for the entire family of the Duke Prefecture deciding to fight to the death without taking half a step back, Gao Yang would have long slipped away to Jiangnan; now he was actually betting his life against the King of Kings.

Could it be...

Wu Zhao's eyes changed, and she suddenly wasn't panicked in her heart.

Chu Ningyu was excited.

Betting his life!

If he could be forced to draw his sword and commit suicide, Great Chu would have one less formidable enemy.

Chu Ningyu suppressed her inner excitement, but her heart couldn't help but beat violently.

Wei Laoyezi couldn't help but laugh out loud after hearing this.

He said with great satisfaction.

"Refreshing!"

"Refreshing!"

"Lord Gao, you are the first person in the last ten years to dare to bet your life against me; today I can finally display my skills to my heart's content; I accept this bet!"

Wei Laoyezi was full of satisfaction; he felt the long-lost hot blood swirling in his chest, as if it were about to burst out!

"Lord Gao, how do you want to bet?"

As Wei Laoyezi spoke, a brilliant light shot from his cloudy eyes.

The officials heard this and were also full of anticipation.

Gao Yang saw this and said directly, "Meeting a worthy opponent, I also feel exhilarated!"

"As everyone knows, I have always respected the old and loved the young, so I will only provide two first lines; as long as Wei Laoyezi can provide a neat second line with the same artistic conception within half an hour, then Wei Laoyezi wins, and I will draw my sword and commit suicide on the spot!"

"Wei Laoyezi, how about that?"

Hearing this, Wei Laoyezi's gaze turned solemn.

He sighed and said, "Although I am in Great Chu, I have also heard of Lord Gao's name; I originally thought Lord Gao would play dirty, but now it seems Lord Gao is not as shameless as the rumors say!"

"This bet, I have taken advantage!"

"Lord Gao, please instruct!"

Wei Laoyezi spoke; if it weren't for the issue of stance and Zhou Laoyezi's death, just based on these words, he would have spared Gao Yang's life!

Gao Yang didn't say much.

He strolled through the Jin Luandian, his gaze revealing a look of recollection.

Then he slowly said, "When I was seven, I happened to see a monk painting by a pond; it was August, and the lotus flowers in the pond were in full bloom, extremely beautiful, leaving a deep impression on me."
