The eldest princess of Xihua came with the emperor and queen of Xirui, and it can be seen that the emperor and the queen are very fond of the eldest princess of Xihua, but whether this favor is sincere, or because of other reasons, it is the wisdom of the benevolent and the wise.

Zi'er didn't miss the meaningful glance when the eldest princess of Xihua passed in front of her, it seemed that this eldest princess of Xihua was really going to face herself.

With his current friendship with King Ding, I am afraid that any woman who has intentions for King Ding will not look at her Qin Zi'er pleasing to the eye.

However, Zi'er is even more sure that the eldest princess of Xihua is really in love with King Ding.

I don't know if the emperor and the queen knew the thoughts of the eldest princess of Xihua, they would be able to get along so happily.

King Ding has 300,000 Dingjia troops in his hands, and this is only his power on the surface, what is going on in secret, I am afraid that the emperor is not clear. If King Ding marries the rich eldest princess of Xihua again, the emperor's throne will be even more uneasy, I am afraid that the emperor would rather let the eldest princess of Xihua die unexpectedly than let her have the opportunity to marry King Ding.

Of course, Zi'er also believes that King Ding will not be able to look down on the eldest princess of Xihua Kingdom.

Thinking of the time he went to the Thousand Buddha Temple, King Ding should have a sweetheart, but Zi'er didn't know who that person was, and after thinking about it, King Ding realized that now, if it wasn't for the time when he was in the Thousand Buddha Temple, he insisted on asking for a marriage sign, Zi'er really didn't find the slightest clue.

Or ask him another day, by the way, see if he is unrequited or in love with the woman, if unrequited, she can also help think of a way.

Thinking about it like this, the little depression that suddenly came to Zi'er's heart just now is gone.

After a visit to the courtesy, the banquet began, Zi'er attended such a palace banquet for the first time, but there was no competition between the daughters of each family, but by the dancing girls of the palace music and dance division.

Everyone understands that tonight's palace banquet is just to welcome the envoys from all over the world and the reception banquet of the eldest princess of Xihua Kingdom, as for how the chief prince of Xihua Kingdom chooses the concubine, there is no charter, Zi'er heard that the saying is that the eldest princess of Xihua Kingdom is selected, and the selected person can be agreed by the emperor and queen of Xirui Kingdom and the prince of Xihua Kingdom.

As for what is going on in private, it's hard to say, it's said that it was chosen by the eldest princess of Xihua, but Zi'er felt that the emperor and the queen already had a predetermined candidate.

The envoys from several other countries are ostensibly here to run for election, but those people may be very clear that they have no role in running for the concubine of the eldest princess of Xihua, and their purpose may also be to make friends with Xihuaguo, or to come to Xirui to marry a woman who is advantageous to them.

At the banquet, the guests and hosts were happy, and Zi'er was also relieved to eat the food on the table, but unfortunately maybe many of these dishes were cold, and the taste was really not good, but the dim sum was very delicate and tasted good.

If you want to say that the women at the entire banquet, Zi'er ate the most, and almost all the snacks on the banquet were swept into her stomach.

Qin Mingzhu's eyes crossed with disdain from time to time, but her eyes were more on the queen's sister-in-law, King Rui, as for why she moved her gaze from King Su to King Rui so quickly, first, King Rui is the queen's sister-in-law, although he is only fifteen years old, but he has just opened the mansion, not only does there be no side concubine in the house, but there is no concubine room and room, if she can marry King Rui now, it is very likely that she will be King Rui's first woman, don't they all say that men are different from their first woman?

Moreover, the queen is the main palace, and the Qi family's power is not small, although I haven't heard of King Rui having his own power over the years, but everyone can guess that as the queen's only concubine, how can the queen not plan for him? Therefore, it is very likely that King Rui will sit in that position in the future.

Moreover, a few days ago, Qin Mingzhu had a chance encounter with King Rui, when she was almost hit by a galloping horse, it was King Rui who rescued her, and at that moment King Rui was like a god who fell from the sky, which made Qin Mingzhu feel in love at first sight.

Qin Mingzhu's mind Zi'er was not clear, but as long as she didn't mess with her, she didn't bother to care which one she wanted to hook up with.

"I heard that Miss Qin of the Prime Minister's Mansion of Xirui is the most talented woman in the world, and this princess has admired her for a long time, and now I really want to get to know Miss Qin, I don't know if this princess has that honor?"

Zi'er was putting the last piece of snack in her mouth, thinking that she would finally not be hungry, when she heard someone come to find fault.

She had a hunch that the eldest princess of Xihua would not let her go today, and she could wait until she filled her stomach, which could be regarded as quite bearable.

As soon as the words of the eldest princess of Xihua fell, everyone at the banquet suddenly looked different, after all, what the eldest princess of Xihua said did not seem to be admiring Miss Qin.

It's pretty much the same to find fault.

"The daughter of this palace can be admired by the eldest princess, this palace is very happy, Zi'er, you will let the eldest princess know each other."

No one expected that Princess Fengyi would suddenly speak at this time, and as soon as she heard her words, she knew that she was supporting Qin Zi'er.

Before Zi'er stood up, she heard Princess Xihua look at Princess Fengyi with a puzzled smile, "This princess doesn't know that Princess Fengyi has a daughter, but she must get to know her well today, so as not to be unrecognizable when we meet in the future." ”

Princess Fengyi seemed to smile, and said lightly: "The eldest princess is polite, the daughter of this palace is the person you just said to admire, the eldest lady of the Prime Minister's Mansion, this palace has long recognized Zi'er as her goddaughter, but in the hearts of the palace and the grandfather of the country, Zi'er is our daughter-in-law, and almost everyone in the capital knows about it, and the eldest princess has been coming to my Xirui for a short time, so it is not surprising that she doesn't know." ”

Qin Zi'er is the goddaughter recognized by Princess Fengyi, as long as people who have little understanding of the state affairs of Xirui Kingdom know it, the eldest princess of Xihua Kingdom said that she didn't know at this time, who would believe it? What's more, she just said that she admired Zi'er.

The reason why she said that just now was just to let Zi'er know that she was provoking her Qin Zi'er, to see if she dared to fight?

Now everyone understands in their hearts that the eldest princess of Xihua Kingdom is afraid that she will not like Qin Zi'er.

All of a sudden, everyone had different thoughts, and they had nothing to do with themselves and gossiped about what the eldest princess of Xihua had to do with Zi'er? There is also speculation that the eldest princess of Xihua wants to find trouble with Zi'er, is it because of King Su? And this eldest princess is in love with King Su? In short, everyone had different thoughts, but they didn't say anything, they just watched the play with peace of mind, after all, this matter was the matter of Qin Zi'er and the eldest princess of Xihua Kingdom, the bigger the two of them made trouble, the happier they watched.

No one noticed that Emperor Qiande's slightly drooping gaze was deep, but the queen sitting next to him glanced at Zi'er carefully, and the expression on her face did not have a trace of waves.

The corners of Zi'er's lips were lightly raised, and a dark light crossed her eyes, it seems that this emperor and empress are much more capable than she imagined, the mind of the eldest princess of Xihua Kingdom, her purpose just now, I am afraid that the emperor and empress will know it.

Although it has become the target of everyone's eyes now, as the biggest emperor and empress present, Zi'er has never relaxed her attention to them. Of course, her attention was not obvious, at least not yet for the emperor and empress.

"I see, congratulations to Princess Fengyi and Grandpa Guo!" The eldest princess of Xihua smiled softly and looked at Zi'er, "Miss Qin, you don't mind if this palace asks you some questions, right?" ”

"Princess, please speak!" Zi'er looked at the eldest princess of Xihua Kingdom, in front of so many people, besides, the person who came was a guest, even if Zi'er minded, she couldn't say it, this eldest princess of Xihua was really hypocritical.

"Actually, it's not a problem, but this princess thinks it's very interesting, so I want to say it for everyone to hear, and everyone can also think about it together, if anyone thinks of it first, they can also say it, of course, Miss Qin is the first talented woman in the world, and she must be the smartest."

The words of the eldest princess of Xihua are good, which means that if Zi'er is not the first to say it correctly, then she will not be able to afford the title of the first talented woman in the world, and even if she says it, it is nothing, I didn't hear what the eldest princess of Xihua said, this is actually not a problem.

Zi'er smiled faintly, the look on her face was noncommittal, she really didn't care about such a reputation, but she had never been willing to be bullied so blatantly.

Therefore, I hope that the eldest princess of Xihua will not play too much, otherwise, it is estimated that it will be difficult for her to clean up.

"Miss Qin, listen up, a hired worker's annual salary is twelve taels of silver plus a robe, and when he left after seven months of work, he happened to pay him a robe and five taels of silver, and the princess's question is to ask what is the price of this robe?"

As soon as the question of the eldest princess of Xihua came out, it was a little surprising, no one expected that she would come up with arithmetic problems.

For a while, the real hall was quiet, and everyone was thinking about the question of the eldest princess of Xihua Kingdom, especially those ministers, if they could answer it as quickly as possible, it would be the biggest win in front of the emperor, although this question was only taken by the eldest princess of Xihua Kingdom to ask Qin Zi'er, but it can also be said that Xihua Kingdom used it to ask Xirui Kingdom, if they Xirui Kingdom can answer it quickly, wouldn't it be very face-saving? When the time comes, the emperor will definitely be happy. Don't you see that the emperor is paying attention now? It shows that the emperor is very concerned about this matter.

Zi'er lightly hooked the corners of her lips, she originally thought how difficult this question was, but she didn't expect it to be just such an arithmetic problem. Of course, if this arithmetic problem is placed in this era, it is indeed very difficult, but in modern times, I am afraid that only elementary school students can do it.

The eyes of the eldest princess of Xihua kept falling on Zi'er, looking at Zi'er's indifferent and calm expression, her brows wrinkled imperceptibly, she thought that even if Qin Zi'er was not nervous, she would immediately rack her brains to think about it. But looking at her now, it doesn't look like she's using her brain at all. Either she's already figured out the answer, or she's clueless at all, so she's breaking the jar and waiting for someone to answer.

"Miss Qin seems to be confident, has she already figured out the answer?" The eldest princess of Xihua didn't think that Qin Zi'er could figure it out so quickly, and she wasn't worried that others could figure it out so quickly, you must know that this question is an ancient problem, no one has been able to calculate it for hundreds of years, if she hadn't accidentally seen it, she wouldn't be able to figure it out today.

However, she just didn't like Qin Zi'er's calm appearance, which just made everyone's attention fall on her, and there must be many women who attended the palace banquet who didn't like Qin Zi'er, maybe they would also embarrass Qin Zi'er with her.

Zi'er just felt everyone's gaze, and looked at Beichenluo, but saw that the guy was leisurely holding a jade pendant, and she didn't know what she was thinking.

As if he felt Zi'er's gaze at him, the cold face seemed to melt for a moment, and then this guy kept staring at her.

The people that the eldest princess of Xihua pays the most attention to are Zi'er and King Ding, so how can she not see the difference between the two? The chill in his eyes was deeper, but the smile on the corner of his lips seemed to be infected with a bloodthirsty cold.

"The eldest princess's question is really not difficult, and the eldest princess also knows that the emperor and courtiers of our Xirui Kingdom are working hard every day, and she can't bear to take too difficult questions to relieve everyone's boredom."

Zi'er looked at the eldest princess of Xihua with a smile, and as soon as her words fell, the gaze that fell on her became even hotter. Especially the people of Xirui Kingdom, although they all hope that they can think of the answer, but their minds are a mess, if no one can answer, it is a loss of face in Xirui Kingdom, the eldest princess said just now, let them these ministers also think about it.

"So it seems that Miss Qin really already knows the answer?" The eldest princess of Xihua still had a smile on her face, she absolutely didn't believe that Qin Zi'er could figure it out. She is looking forward to it, when Qin Zi'er makes a fool of herself, what kind of face will King Ding have? When the time comes, he will know that Qin Zi'er is no more than Er'er.

Zi'er nodded slowly in the expectant gaze of the Xirui people, and said in a clear and calm voice: "This question is really simple, and many of our ministers of the Xirui Kingdom must have already calculated it, but it was just to make me stand out, so they didn't say the answer." ”

Emperor Qiande was very satisfied with what Zi'er said, and the ministers were also very satisfied, although they had no clue about this question, they also showed their energy with an indifferent face, as if what Zi'er said was the truth, and the answer was already in their minds.

Zi'er looked at the appearance of those ministers, and really wanted to laugh, a group of guys who didn't know how to pretend to understand, tsk, and said that it was the highest official in a country.

The eldest princess of Xihua suddenly felt a little apprehensive in her heart, she didn't believe that Qin Zi'er could calculate it, but looking at Qin Zi'er's appearance, she was too confident, right?

"The correct answer to this question should be that the robe is worth four taels of silver and eight hundred wen."

As soon as Zi'er's voice fell, everyone began to secretly calculate, wanting to see if what she said was correct, only the face of the eldest princess of Xihua was very unsightly, and some people did not calculate, as soon as they looked at the face of the eldest princess of Xihua, they already knew that the answer that Qin Zi'er said was correct.

"Zi'er is completely right, this robe is exactly four taels of silver and eight hundred wen." King Su looked at Zi'er with a gentle smile on his face, he couldn't figure it out himself, but after he saw the expression of the eldest princess of Xihua Kingdom, he knew that the answer was right.

"Eldest princess, I don't know the answer Qin Zi'er said, but is it right?" Emperor Qiande glanced at Qin Zi'er, his eyes fell on the face of the eldest princess of Xihua Kingdom, and asked with a smile.

"Back to the emperor, the answer that Miss Qin said is right. It's just that Princess Ben is very curious, how did Miss Qin calculate it? The eldest princess of Xihua still didn't want to believe that Qin Zi'er could figure it out, thinking that she was only afraid that she was right.

Zi'er just glanced at it, and saw what the eldest princess of Xihua was thinking, and said with a faint smile: "The eldest princess said that it is not difficult, I can calculate it even by relying on mental arithmetic." If you ask me to write it, it's okay, can you ask the emperor to prepare pen and ink? ”

"Accurate!" At this time, it was impossible for the emperor to disagree, and glanced at the father-in-law who was waiting beside him, and soon someone presented the pen, ink and paper to Zi'er's seat, and the palace maid on the side had already packed up the things on the low table, and quickly put everything away.

Zi'er wrote down the steps to solve the problem, blew the ink, and handed the answer to the palace maid on the side, who quickly presented the answer to the emperor.

After the emperor saw it, he laughed and praised: "Wonderful, wonderful, Qin Zi'er's method of doing the question is really wonderful!" ”

Looking at the emperor's dragon face and great joy, everyone wanted to know the solution on the paper, and even the eldest princess of Xihua wanted to know, how did Qin Zi'er solve it?

When the eldest princess of Xihua saw the steps to solve the problem written on Zi'er's paper, as well as the algorithm she used, she had to admit in her heart that Qin Zi'er was indeed smart.

"Miss Qin is really smart, and this solution is very simple." Although she was so angry in her heart, the eldest princess of Xihua had to praise with a smile, after all, the emperor of Xirui Kingdom laughed and said Okay, can she not praise it?

"Thank you, princess!" Zi'er blinked defiantly when no one noticed, her arrogant appearance fell in the eyes of the eldest princess of Xihua Kingdom, and she was even more angry that she wanted to gouge out Zi'er's eyeballs immediately.

"Miss Qin is so smart, I wonder if she can help Princess Ben solve a problem?" originally thought that a question would stump Qin Zi'er, but now it seems that fortunately she is still prepared.

Zi'er seemed to be smiling, and said lightly: "I don't know how many questions the eldest princess must have prepared for this time?" It's better to say it all at once, let's brainstorm and solve the eldest princess's doubts together. ”

Zi'er's words made the people of Xirui Kingdom look at the eldest princess of Xihua Kingdom very dissatisfied, if she wants to embarrass Qin Zi'er, she can find an opportunity in private, and now on such an occasion, in front of the emperor and queen and many ministers, the eldest princess is not only embarrassed by a Qin Zi'er, but wants to embarrass the entire Xirui Kingdom.

Xihua is just a vassal country of Xirui, and the eldest princess of Xihua is so embarrassed at the banquet held by Xirui and other envoys, and she doesn't take them Xirui seriously.

In fact, everyone misunderstood the princess, she really just wanted to embarrass Qin Zi'er, but what she said and the method she used were not right, it was supposed to be a contest between private individuals, but she made it a contest between countries.

Fortunately, the prince of Xihua Kingdom has not yet come to Xirui Kingdom, otherwise he would be so angry that his face would have darkened when he saw his favorite sister who was constantly hating their country today.

The eldest princess of Xihua also realized that she was not doing it properly, and when she heard what Zi'er said, her face was a little stiff, and she said unnaturally: "Miss Qin said that I only have two questions, Miss Qin said as if this princess was deliberately embarrassed by Miss Qin." In fact, this princess has long heard of Miss Qin's intelligence, so she hopes that Miss Qin can solve her doubts for this princess. ”

"Really? I'd love to help the eldest princess. I heard that Xihua is a famous country of fish and rice, and the rice produced every year is exported to several countries, I also have a question, I don't know if the eldest princess and the envoy of Xihua can solve my doubts? By the way, I heard that the eldest princess came this time, but Lan Yulan, who is known as the smartest person in Xihua, and I heard that Lan is the most proficient in arithmetic, and it just so happens that my one is also an arithmetic problem. Zi'er's eyes narrowed slightly, didn't they all say that Lan Yu of Xihua Country could be called the number one god operator in the world? She slapped him in the face today.

Just as Zi'er was reluctant to answer the eldest princess's question just now, but she had to answer it, Xihuaguo had to take Zi'er's question.

"Miss Qin, please speak!" The eldest princess of Xihua didn't say anything, but Lan Yu was the first to speak, and he could be called the number one god operator in the world, and he had his own advantages, so he was not afraid of Zi'er's problem at all.

Zi'er smiled slightly, but those who were familiar with her knew the cunning and calculation in her smile, "So I'll say the topic first, and then the eldest princess will say your problem." ”

"Miss Qin, please!" I have to say that this Lan Yu is really proud enough, and he really doesn't respect the eldest princess of Xihua Kingdom.

Zi'er looked at Lan Yu and said her topic, "The granary was opened to collect grain, and someone sent 1,534 stones of rice, and the grain in the rice was inspected, and a handful of rice was sampled, and 254 grains of grain were counted and 28 grains were sandwiched in the rice, so how many stones is this batch of grain in the rice?" That's my question, and the eldest princess can also say what you want to ask me. ”

This problem is actually not that difficult, but the ancients did not learn equations, so it will definitely take a lot of time to calculate accurately.

The eldest princess of Xihua Kingdom's face was not good-looking, because when she saw Zi'er's question and said it, Lan Yu's brows were tightly furrowed, thinking that this question was not simple.

But it's not easy to think about her question.

"This princess is asking a pair, and the upper link of the pair will die 'smoke lock pond willow', I don't know if Miss Qin can match the lower link."

As soon as the title of the eldest princess of Xihua came out, it immediately attracted the interest of many people, and many people were even more amazed, so right. You must know that the ministers of the DPRK and China are good at reciting poems and doing things right, and many of them have a headache when it comes to counting, but if they say that they are right, they are very interested.

From arithmetic to pairs, this eldest princess can be regarded as taking her own math test and then taking the Chinese test. However, for pairs, although she is not good at them, she can also match some of them, so as soon as the topic of the eldest princess of Xihua came out, Zi'er thought about it carefully, and the next link was already in her mind.

In the situation where those ministers are still racking their brains and thinking, you discuss with me, and I discuss with you, Zi'er is calm.

"The eldest princess's pair is very interesting, but it's not very difficult, I have two lower sentences, one is barely right, and the other I think it's not bad."

As soon as Zi'er's voice fell, the people who were thinking hard were staring at her with wide eyes, and before they could come out right, she thought of two downlinks? This Qin Zi'er is a little too smart, right?

The face of the eldest princess of Xihua is not very good-looking, and in a short period of time, Qin Zi'er has come up with two downlinks? Isn't that a slap in the face? It seems that her question is not difficult at all?

"'Smoke lock pond willow' can be used as the 'autumn gully' pine as the next link, but I think it is more wonderful to use 'tea boiling and chiseling wall springs' to 'smoke lock pond willow'."

said the two lower sentences, so many people's eyes were straight, and some people kept muttering to themselves, muttering Zi'er's two lower sentences, which are really Zi'er's lower couplets, which is too good.

"Very good, reward, heavy reward, I will reward Qin Zi'er for the golden silk fragrant wood inlaid cicada jade beads paid by the Nanyue Kingdom." Emperor Qiande is indeed happy, after all, Qin Zi'er is in the limelight, it is Xirui Kingdom who is in the limelight, how can the emperor not be happy?

Zi'er was naturally happy when she got the reward, it was a tribute, it must be a good thing, and the emperor was finally generous.

Zi'er is happy, and the people of Xirui are also very happy, except for those who are jealous of Zi'er, of course. And the people of Xihua Kingdom were not very happy, because their number one god in the world had not been able to calculate Qin Zi'er's topic.

"Thank the emperor for the reward!" Zi'er accepted the reward, looked at the eldest princess of Xihua, and smiled very happily: "If you don't want to continue to calculate the question I just asked, I can give you the answer, if you still want to continue to calculate, then when will it be calculated, just tell me the answer." ”

If you wait for the people of Xihua to calculate the answer, I am afraid that I will not be able to wait for one night, and I think that the emperor will think the same way, so I will continue to eat and drink later, and after the stubble of the eldest princess of Xihua Kingdom, even those who look at Zi'er very unpleasantly, will not dare to find fault.

The ministers had almost drunk, at least on the surface, and they were all very happy, and as for how many of them were about to reach the end of their drinking, only they themselves knew. But in front of the emperor, there are really few ministers who are stupid enough to get themselves drunk.

Just when Zi'er thought that the palace banquet was about to end, King Su suddenly got up, walked to the middle of the main hall, and knelt down to the emperor to salute, "Father, the son has something to ask for the emperor." ”

King Su's face was flushed, and he knew that he had drunk a lot of wine when he looked at it, Zi'er frowned and looked at Beichen Luo subconsciously, but saw Beichen Luo's gloomy face, even if he didn't get close, he could feel the cold air on his body.

Zi'er's eyes drooped slightly, although King Su hadn't said anything about asking the emperor, but Zi'er guessed that it should be a matter of asking for marriage and letting him marry him, he had already said it before the banquet began.

I didn't expect him to really want to let the emperor make an order in front of the envoys of various countries at this time, Zi'er's face was indifferent, but she had already made a decision in her heart, if King Su spoke, she would directly propose to withdraw from her family, if the emperor and King Su were unwilling, don't blame her for saying some things that shouldn't be said.

I originally wanted to plan some retreats before, but I was too busy recently and I haven't been able to make time, and Zi'er thought that King Su's target was the eldest princess of Xihua, so she was not in a hurry, but she didn't expect King Su to ask for a decree to marry her at this time.

Emperor Qiande looked at King Su meaningfully, and his face was a little more indifferent, in his opinion, the person King Su wanted to marry should be the eldest princess of Xihua Kingdom, and the reason why King Su wanted to ask to marry the eldest princess of Xihua Kingdom must be for the silver money, and the purpose of asking for so much silver money was to seek to seize the throne he was sitting on now.

Not to mention that he is now at the peak of the Spring and Autumn Period, even if he is old, he doesn't want someone to want to compete with him so blatantly when he is still sitting.

"Isn't Su Wang Mo drunk? Tonight is the reception banquet that I-Siri will hold for my friends, and I will not talk about anything other than eating and drinking. ”

"Father, I really want to,"

"Someone, King Su is drunk, take him down to sober up." Emperor Qiande didn't wait for King Su to finish speaking, so he directly asked people to take him down. The cold Xiao killing in the words made Zi'er have no doubt that at that moment just now, the emperor had murderous intent in his heart.

It seems that in front of the throne, even if it is a son, it is not a sin.

The corners of Zi'er's lips hooked up with a sneer, and she lowered her eyes and looked at the teacup on the low table with an uncertain expression.

"Zi'er," King Su did seem to be a little drunk, and when he was taken out, when he passed Zi'er's seat, he wanted to break free from the guards who were supporting him, and walked towards Zi'er.

Without the emperor's order, the guards would not let go, and when King Su saw that he couldn't break free, he waved his hand at Zi'er indiscriminately, and when he shouted Zi'er's name, although his voice was low and hoarse, it was also clear to people.

-End of Chapter-
