Chapter 225: The Prophet of the Unknown
"Lu Dongzan?"
"Lu Dongzan!"
Li Er and Empress Changsun glanced at each other, and they both saw a look of surprise in each other's eyes, and Wang Xiang, who was sitting below, also exclaimed in a low voice.
Seeing Li Er's reaction, Lu Dongzan and the Tibetan envoys were a little confused.
"Your Majesty has heard of my name?" Lu Dongzan asked suspiciously, this is the first time he has come to the Tang Dynasty, and he did not have the slightest reputation in Tubo before, why did the Tang Emperor seem to have heard of his name.
Li Er reacted, smiled and said, "I just think this name is a little strange. After speaking, he glanced at Wang Xiang who was sitting below seemingly casually.
Strange? Aren't all the names of the people of Fanbang like this? But no one will question Li Er's words because of this.
The eldest grandson Wuji also heard Wang Xiang's exclamation just now, and when he saw Li Er's reaction, the old fox suddenly noticed that something was unusual, squinted and smiled: "Zixin knows that Tubo man named Lu Dongzan?" ”
Wang Xiang shook his head and said, "I don't know, how can I know the Tubo people." ”
"Then why were you so surprised to hear his name?"
"Am I surprised? I just think his name is weird. ”
……
Li Er pressed the surprise and doubts in his heart, and said to Lu Dongzan: "Then tell me what you can do to solve this problem." ”
Lu Dongzan smiled, took two steps forward and said, "If you want to pass this silk thread through the Jiuqu Pearl, you only need an ant." ”
"Ants?"
After listening to Lu Dongzan's words, everyone in the hall was puzzled, what does wearing silk thread have to do with ants? Only Li Er, Empress Changsun and Wang Xiang moved in their hearts. Takatayan also looked thoughtful.
"The holes in the nine-song pearl are criss-crossed. Meandering. It's easier said than done to thread your own thread, unless someone can walk through the holes with a silk thread. Just find an ant of the right size, tie one end of the silk thread to the ant, and then put the ant into the hole of the pearl of Jiuqu, and smear some honey on the hole at the other end of the pearl, the ant will follow the smell of honey to crawl inside the pearl, and when the ant drills out of the hole coated with honey, the silk thread will naturally pass through the pearl of Jiuqu. ”
Lu Dongzan stood at His Royal Highness and talked eloquently, calmly. It was more elegant than those envoys of Fanbang, and his uncle, who served as the envoy of Tibet, was pleasantly surprised, as if he had found a piece of jade.
"Wonderful! This Dharma is great! ”
"Ants can walk through the holes of the Pearl of the Nine Songs at will, and then lure them forward with honey, and this young man in Tibet is indeed very clever to come up with this plan."
"I'm just afraid that the Ruyi princess who is not inferior to Datang."
Hearing the following discussion, Li Er's heart was even more complicated: If you can solve this problem and make you so admired, then wouldn't the person who can come up with these problems ......
However, the young man named Lu Dongzan in front of him is really good, he is intelligent, he can deal with it easily, and his temperament is different from that of ordinary Fanbang people, he is not sure how many times stronger than the prince and prince here. Li Er nodded and said, "It's gratifying to have such a young talent in Tubo." ”
Lu Dongzan didn't like to show off like Bato, and after listening to Li Er's words, he said humbly: "Your Majesty has praised it." I just suddenly thought of such a solution, which is much worse than the Ruyi princess of the Tang Dynasty. He also said this from the heart, after all, he couldn't unravel the nine-song chain.
"I don't know if Your Majesty's questions are from that Ruyi princess?"
Li Er glanced at Wang Xiang when he heard this, and the expression on his face obviously told him: Look, it's not that I want to cheat you, it's that people are really interested in that girl in your family, and now two of the three questions you came out have been solved by Tubo, so let's look at it next.
"These questions do have something to do with Princess Ruyi." Li Er said vaguely, although the title was not made by Xiao Lori, but it was also a question made by Wang Xiang because of her, and it was not nonsense to say that it was related.
It's just that the meaning is different in other people's ears, and in their ears, these problems must be from the hands of the talented Ruyi princess, and now they are more interested in Xiao Lori, and the Tubo envoy even thought that if he could help Zampu marry back to a Tang princess who was so smart and witty, Tubo couldn't be more prosperous.
Thinking of this, the Tibetan envoy was also a little impatient, and said to Li Er: "Please ask Your Majesty to ask the last question." ”
"Your Majesty!"
Before Li Er could speak, Wang Xiang couldn't help but stand up.
It can be said that it is very disrespectful to interrupt like him suddenly, but Li Er didn't seem to be angry, but looked at him with great interest and asked, "What does Jiayuan Hou have to say?" ”
Seeing Li Er's attitude towards Wang Xiang, how could the envoys of Fanbang present still not be able to guess what kind of holy favor this Marquis of Jiayuan received, and secretly wondered if the gift he gave last time was light, after all, even the dignified Sikong Changsun was sitting under his seat.
Wang Xiang saw that everyone was looking at him, coughed dryly and said with a smile: "The minister sees that it is not early today, and the question that His Majesty came up with is not simple, it is better to wait until tomorrow to come up with the last question, so that everyone also has enough time to come up with a solution, if the question is made now, wouldn't it be unfair to them that the time to consider it is too short." ”
Li Zhi didn't know what Wang Xiang really thought in his heart, and when he saw that he actually helped Fanbang think about it, he pulled the corner of his clothes and said urgently: "Wang Jiancheng, why are you facing those Fanbang people!" ”
Li Er didn't know what he thought when he saw Wang Xiang quietly looking at him, he was weak-hearted, but Li Er also had doubts in his heart, so after listening to Wang Xiang's words, he nodded and said: "What Jiayuan Hou said also makes sense, the last question will come out tomorrow, everyone drink and watch the performance." ”
Wang Xiang's words did sound like they were thinking about those states, and the Tibetan envoys were also worried that the time was too short for the people on their side to come up with a solution, so they had no objection to Wang Xiang's proposal.
As soon as the court meeting ended, Wang Xiang was called to the Lizheng Hall by Li Er.
Li Er and Empress Changsun sat together, posing as ready for interrogation.
As soon as Wang Xiang saw this posture, he felt inexplicably weak.
"Tell me, why wait until tomorrow to ask the last question." Li Er sat solemnly.
"The minister thinks that this last question needs to be changed."
"Change the subject?" Li Er was stunned for a moment, and said with a deliberately straight face: "Didn't you say that no one in Fanbang can solve your problem, and now Tubo has solved two questions in a row!" ”
Wang Xiang blurted out: "You can't blame me, the minister asked His Majesty if there was a messenger named Lu Dongzan in Tubo before, but His Majesty said no." ”
Hearing Wang Xiang mention Lu Dongzan, Li Er and Empress Changsun, their eyes lit up.
"Nalu Dongzan is indeed not the envoy of Tubo, he came to Chang'an with his uncle to see and see, and I just found out, but how do you know that Nalu Dongzan can solve this problem, a certain ...... Can you predict the Prophet? (To be continued.) )
