Putting aside the war and uncertain relationship between the two countries, just talking about Huyan Minglie's appearance, the unique high nose bridge and slender posture of the barbarians are enough to make many people's hearts moved. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

As a result, as soon as the news of the princess of the barbarian land challenging the talents of the world came out, it set off the "patriotic" hearts of the scholars in Beijing and even the surrounding state cities. What is it to marry a barbarian girl, as long as you can serve the court and win glory for the literary world of the Dajing Dynasty, what is this little "torture"?

As soon as the list of Honglu Temple came out, the people of the small house and the school who were waiting outside the notice early were copied and spread.

However, the person who transcribed originally wanted to seize the opportunity, but as a result, he went through the question and found that he was too naïve. The Great Xia Kingdom dared to send people to challenge the talents of the Dajing literary circle, and naturally there was some background.

The palace also received the news. Zhao Han glanced at the question copied by the eunuch, frowned, put the question aside, and muttered: "This is an unsolvable question......

The princes of the palace also got the questions.

Zhao Guang's face was frighteningly pale, and he muttered: "This problem, probably no one in the world can solve it." ”

Wang Yan glanced at it and said, "Indeed." ”

Zhao Guangdao: "Taifu, Lin Lan is already the second time to face the saint, and no one knows what he talked about with his father. How can you abandon such an important chess piece? ”

"It's all in the hands of old decay. Now that the Holy Lord has not established the East Palace, His Royal Highness the Prince can not relax. ”

Zhao Guang coughed his throat, a trace of obscurity flashed between his brows, and he snorted coldly: "If it weren't for this damn disease, I'm afraid my father would have made me the crown prince a long time ago." Among the princes now, the eldest brother is generous and inactive, but such an opponent is the most difficult. ”

Wang Yan stood up and saluted, and said, "His Royal Highness the Great Prince is steady, but you might as well start with his subordinates, so that the problem can be made simpler." ”

"Thank you for your advice."

"Passing the prize." Wang Yan bowed.

……

……

All the universities in Beijing have got this problem.

It's a matter of common sense, or a question of getting close to life—whether it's close to people at the beginning of the day or close to people in the middle of the day.

In the Sanjiu Society, I don't know which good thing it is, but he said the problem, and it caused a huge wave of discussion.

Regarding this kind of problem that does not need to memorize the Four Books and Five Classics, and does not need to recite poems to be right, Jia Huan is also happy to participate, saying: "Which fool asked this? Naturally, the beginning of the day is approaching. This morning sun is so big, like a basin, by noon, it has become a dish, it must be far away. This question still needs to be discussed? ”

Someone immediately retorted: "The morning sun is not as hot as noon, isn't it hot for those who are near, and cold for those who are far away?" That's why I said it was still near noon. ”

The two sides insisted on their own words, and the group of gentlemen seemed to find a way to find amusement, and tried their best to prove their arguments, until in the end, they did not argue a single conclusion, because according to their views, they seemed to be flawless, but the two arguments were contradictory.

In the end, Jia Huan asked Lin Lan to decide who was right. Lin Lan just smiled and didn't speak, this question, if it was understood by them, it would naturally be an unsolvable problem. However, these days have been cloudy, and there is no sun, and there is no basis for speaking, so it is naturally difficult to convince the public, so Lin Lan shook his head and smiled.

The celebrities above the court have also fallen into this problem. No one had ever thought about such a question, but when it was raised, it was as if they had fallen into a strange circle, and no one could explain it.

The major poetry societies and societies in Beijing all rushed to tell each other. Prepare for a joint meeting in three days. It is related to the face of the literary circle of the Dajing Dynasty, and the Ministry of Rites attaches great importance to it, and specially sends a waiter of the Ministry of Rites to supervise this matter, and intends to set up a lottery in Qinyuan to reward those who can answer this question.

Undoubtedly, face has two sides. Face is back, everything seems to be a matter of course, without face, you can't raise your head, and it is inevitable that you will be inferior. The peace talks between the two parties, because of Huyan Minglie's sentence of being a concubine, delayed for time.

If there is a talented person in the Dajing Dynasty who can answer her three questions and let the princess of the dignified Daxia Dynasty be a concubine, the next negotiation is equivalent to having a bargaining chip, but it is really impossible to negotiate. Kou Nan naturally has his little Jiujiu, and peace talks are undoubtedly three things: land, business, and things.

What does Great Xia need most? Naturally, it is the grain and advanced technology of the Dajing Dynasty. Since the confrontation between the two countries 30 years ago, the blockade of trade has led to the perennial starvation of people in several states in the bitter cold land of northwest Bactria, and because of this, the border of Yumen Pass has been repeatedly violated. Once trade is negotiated, then food will no longer be a problem.

In the first war of that year, although it was obvious that the Dajing Dynasty lost its territory, both countries understood that this battle was a battle in which both sides lost. The Dajing Dynasty lost, and the soldiers and horses were fierce for decades, and they moved their muscles and bones; The Great Xia Dynasty lost, and several states in the northwest still belonged to Great Xia on the surface, but the Xia Emperor knew in his heart who was actually in control.

This peace talk was a contest between the two monarchs of the north and the south, and it was also a gamble for the two countries to recuperate. Whoever comes to his senses first will be a battle to the death.

Lin Lan climbed the Yunbin Tower again, and looked at the pagoda that had begun to take shape with the clairvoyant mirror, the wooden frame on the top, and the speed of splicing, it was definitely not a new work, but it seemed to be dismantled from which one came out and was spliced together, otherwise there would be absolutely no such speed.

"The envoy of the Xia Dynasty has come to this juncture, but it has attracted a lot of attention, and it is much easier to leave the prince......" Lin Lan put down the clairvoyant mirror and looked at the list in hand, "Zhenguo Gong...... Pingyun Hou...... Tianning Hou ...... These three were all started by the barbarians who resisted the killing of Dugu City back then. ”

"What the hell do you want to do?" Rebel? The rebellion has to rely on soldiers, Lin Lan has already checked, these three have long since handed over the military power after they were feudal princes, and now in addition to the Xining Army, the largest Northwest Army of the Dajing Dynasty, more than half of the army was summed up by a large number of Hou Bo in exchange for military rights.

Zhao Han is indeed a king who can do business, and he has a lot of soldiers on hand, especially this kind of unfathomable soldiers, and rebellion may be a matter of yellow robes.

If it is not a rebellion, then what is the intention of taking great pains to build a stupa? The weasel gave the chicken a New Year's greeting, and Lin Lan didn't believe it when he was killed, this was a group of "loyal" courtiers who simply wanted to build it for Zhao Han's birthday.

For Lin Lan, this is also an unsolvable problem. (To be continued.) )
