The sky is dark, the Taihe Hall is singing and dancing, dancing, candles swaying, who has entered whose eyes, who has entered whose heart?

After a cheating song, Tuha, the envoy of the Wurong Kingdom, got up and saluted Emperor Ji Wu, and he took out a necklace from his sleeve pocket, "Dear Your Majesty the Emperor of the Ji Kingdom, this red agate necklace in my hand has a very romantic name, called the "Rose Chain". ”

When everyone heard the prestige, a red agate necklace as bright as blood and as bright as the morning glow shone in the hands of the Tuha envoys, which was beautiful and attracted everyone's attention.

The envoy continued: "This necklace is a selection of red agate from the depths of the Gobi in my Wurong country, and is carved by the top jade carving master of my Wurong country, and each rose in the beads is lifelike in different shapes, which can be called a fine product.

Such a string of fine agate necklaces, in the agate-rich Wurong country is also rare, our king intends to give it to the girl of Ji Guo, but this string of finely carved necklace is only one, therefore, the person who pre-obtains this chain needs to be able to answer the three questions I raised first. ”

After the envoy Tuha finished speaking to Emperor Ji Wu, he subconsciously compared three fingers, and his hand holding the agate necklace was also raised high, trying to let more people see the beauty of this necklace.

"As long as any girl can answer the old man's three questions, the old man will give this necklace to which girl on behalf of the king of Wujung." Tuha envoy said.

Emperor Ji Wu immediately understood, marrying a wife and marrying a virtuous person, this marriage of the melon banquet, the princes of Wurong State did not have a clear favorite object, but their purpose was very clear, they wanted to select a smart girl from Ji State to be the princess of their Wurong country.

"Oh, what three questions? Your Excellency, you might as well come and hear it. Emperor Ji Wu asked with interest.

The prince of Wurong wore pigtails on his head and wore a loose robe, and the color of the robe was strong and contrasting, which was even more eye-catching.

The women of Ji Guo who were raised in the boudoir, although they felt that the dress of the Natar Prince was a little weird, it did not affect their joy for the handsome and beautiful face of the Natar Prince.

Although the princess of Wurong is not as good as the princess of Ji; But this Natar prince is the only son of the old king of the Ujon country, and marrying him is equivalent to marrying the future king of the Ujon country.

The envoy of Tuha was dark-skinned, he looked about the same age as Ran Yune, his eyes were shining like an eagle soaring in the sky, sharp and wise, not only his hair was braided, but even the mustache on his chin was braided, but his appearance did not look funny, there was a strange restraint.

The envoy of Tuha stroked his pigtail beard and asked the question seriously, "The first question, who can tell the old man how many stars there are in the sky, please don't answer the old man with words such as infinite, infinite, and innumerable." ”

Just one question made the girls present frightened.

What kind of question is this, and you can't answer him with words like "infinite, infinite, innumerable", and can't you still look up and count the stars for him? ”

"I'm afraid I'm counting the stars, the sky is bright, my neck hurts, and the stars in the sky haven't been counted yet."

……

There was a lot of talk in the crowd.

Some of the women clenched their teeth, and their willow eyebrows were frowning and thinking seriously; Yes, they are talking about problems from ear to ear; There are also those who are not interested in the princess of Wurong, so they don't even bother to think about it, and they bury their heads and eat melons by themselves,......

For a long time, no one answered.

The envoy of Tuha was still brushing his pigtailed beard, and said thoughtfully: "Is there really no one who can answer the old man's question?" This is the first question from the old man! ”

Emperor Ji Wu's face was not good in an instant, there were so many people in the Taihe Palace, and there was no girl who could answer the envoy's question, Ji Guo was ranked in the top three of the ten kingdoms of the Great Zhou, how could this make Emperor Ji Wu embarrassed?

Are these girls not interested in the princess of Wurong?

No, no, no...... Immediately, Emperor Ji Wu denied his thoughts, and seeing that the women under the hall frowned, and there were not a few people who exchanged their heads and ears, he knew that they really couldn't think of an answer.

"Hahaha......" Emperor Ji Wu smiled heartily, so he said easily: "The envoys of Tuha don't know, most of the women in my Ji country are deep ladies, they generally don't show their heads, and their faces are thinner, so I'm embarrassed to speak first, it's better to do this, this question will be answered by my prospective daughter-in-law Ran Huaying for them first, how about letting her set an example for those women?" ”

The envoy naturally did not refute Emperor Jiwu's intentions, and he said respectfully: "I followed the respected Emperor Ji, His Majesty." ”

It seems that it is not necessarily a good thing to be too good at expressing yourself, Ran Huaying is too good on weekdays, Emperor Ji Wu didn't even ask, so he asked her to come out to answer the question, is he so confident that Ran Huaying will definitely be able to answer the envoy's question?

At this moment, Xianchen was worried about the jacaranda.

In the face of Emperor Ji Wu's sudden roll call, Ran Huaying had to stand up and answer the question, but if this question was answered correctly, then everyone was happy, what if the answer was wrong?

There is no doubt that all the sins are on Ran Huaying alone, and it will also cause Emperor Ji Wu to be displeased.

The burden on Ran Huaying's shoulders was not light, she got up humbly and politely and bowed to Emperor Ji Wu, "Father and Emperor raise love, and it is better to obey your fate if you are respectful." ”

Then she bowed in the direction of the envoy of Tuha, and said confidently: "The answer to the envoy's question is actually very simple. ”

Ran Huaying pulled out the hairpin on her head, and her black hair like satin instantly spread out, hanging down behind her shoulders like a waterfall, and said: "There are as many hairs on my head as there are stars in the sky." ”

As soon as Ran Huaying's answer came out, many people suddenly realized, and immediately praised her answer for answering well, and even Gu Zichen beside her looked at Ran Huaying's eyes and flashed a little star.

Emperor Ji Wu's face was not happy, Ran Huaying had never disappointed him, why did his answer fall out of standard this time?

The envoy of Tuha remained silent, only brushed the mustache between his chin, and did not deny or affirm Ran Huaying's answer.

Yes, the answer is not wrong; But it's not right, at first glance it sounds right, but when you think about it, it's not right.

Because Ran Huaying was the future daughter-in-law of Emperor Ji Wu, the Tuha envoy did not refute her answer, and tacitly agreed that he was going to ask his second question.

But some people don't know what to do, their daughter won glory for Ji Guo, Emperor Ji Wu didn't praise it, even the envoy of a vassal country of this Wurong country refused to praise the perfect answer, and the Yao family was very upset about Ran Hua.

"Your Excellency, you are not sure of Miss Jacaranda's answer, is her answer perfect?" Yao got up and fought for the glory of his daughter.

Immediately, Emperor Ji Wu's face became gloomy, and he was secretly angry, is this Yao a pig? How can you talk without brains? ”

The face of the Tuha envoy also froze, and how should he answer this question?

If you reject Ran Huaying's answer, so many ministers of Ji Guo just now praised Ran Huaying for her wonderful answer, which makes those ministers who praised Ran Huaying embarrassed? How can Emperor Ji Wu be embarrassed?

If the answer to her is correct, how can this curry favor with their conscience make their Wurong country worthy of dignity?

After a moment of thought, the envoy replied tactfully: "Madam, this girl's answer is not perfect. ”

As the saying goes, monkeys are born to climb trees, pigs you just drag their tails to the tree, pigs can't climb trees, somehow, Yao, who has always been smart, suddenly became a pig from a monkey today.

"It's not perfect, why is it not perfect, please make it clear to the envoy." Yao said politely, but there was obvious unrelenting in her tone.

If people care too much about one thing, they will often lose their minds, and Ran Huaying is already the brightest star among the women of Ji Guo.

The partial-born Yao family is not satisfied, she hopes that her daughter can be brighter and brighter, and it is best to compare all the women, and one day she can be as dazzling as Concubine Yun back then, and become the legend of the Ten Kingdoms of the Great Zhou.

It was precisely because Yao wanted others to affirm her daughter's excellence that she lost her sense of proportion today and shot herself in the foot.

Princess Naya was wronged today, and she was already in a bad mood, and when she saw that the Yao family didn't know how to advance or retreat, she lost her patience when she was still asking the envoy Tuha, and said unceremoniously: "Madame, do you know the metaphor of three thousand green silks?" It is said that there are as many as three thousand human hairs; Could it be that there are only more than 3,000 stars in our sky? ”

Without waiting for Yao's answer, Princess Naya continued, "Even if Madame doesn't know the analogy of three thousand green silks, then shave off one of the girl's hairs completely, count them one by one, and finally count how many hairs there are, but can you count the stars in the sky?" ”

Two rhetorical questions in a row, Yao's who asked was speechless, and immediately blushed and wanted to find a crack in the ground to get into, and at the same time, Ran Yune and Ran Huaying were also embarrassed and at a loss.

Especially Ran Huaying, she stirred the corners of her clothes, lowered her head, blushed so much that she didn't dare to look at anyone, let alone face Gu Zichen's eyes, timidly expecting Gu Zichen to help her out or comfort her a few words.

However, Gu Zichen not only did not do what she wanted, his eyes shining with little stars also dimmed, his majestic brows were tightly locked, his thin lips were slightly collapsed, revealing a thin impatience.

Ran Huaying could only bear all this alone, and she didn't get the relief of Gu Zichen's words, her crystal tears rolled down her eyes silently, big, big beads like broken threads.

If you want to die, you have to find a back, you can't get off the stage, and even your daughter is embarrassed, Yao's heart doesn't give up, and she pulls up the back of the fiber dust.

"Your Excellency, the little girl has been so anxious and overly worried about the affairs of her courtiers lately that she has lost her answer this time; But the courtier's eldest daughter has been smart and clever since she was a child, and she will be able to answer your questions. ”

Yao's deliberately dragged the dust into the water, Gu Ziyi was displeased, and immediately sank his face, and turned to Yao's without leaving half a penny, "Mrs. Ran, your mind is really wider than the sky and the sea, your daughter was pulled into the water by your ignorance just now, and this time I want to pull another daughter who is not my own to cushion my back, you Erniang is really good!" ”

Yao didn't expect Gu Ziyi to slap her, and in front of so many people in the Taihe Palace, he ruthlessly embarrassed her, she was stunned, her face was like an automatic color version, red, white and purple took turns on her face.

Immediately, Ran Yune dragged down the Yao family who was standing there stunned, and said angrily: "Isn't it embarrassing enough?" ”

Yao was sat back in his seat by Ran Yunela, still unable to believe that Gu Ziyi would stand up for Xianchen, and muttered: "How can it be King Rui, how can King Rui help Ran Xianchen?" …… Why didn't King Kang help the jacarandas? ……”

Ran Yuni hurriedly covered Yao's mouth and peeked around, "You don't want our daughter to be embarrassed today, so shut up now." ”
