Chapter 543: The Messenger Arrives
The emperor thought about it again and again, so he handed over the matter to Princess Qingyang.
Princess Qingyang personally received Princess Ning'an, and as for the envoys, they could only be handed over to the Prime Minister.
Princess Ning'an first met the emperor, but she just said a word in front of the civil and military officials.
"I have long wanted to see the demeanor of Dashengguo, but I have never had the opportunity, this time Ning An specially asked my father, hoping that my father would agree to this time I will send Dashengguo, my father agreed, this trip is really worth the trip, the demeanor of Dashengguo is admirable."
"The beautiful scenery of Dasheng Country also makes people linger, but I don't know if the people of Dasheng Country are as beautiful as the scenery here, which is amazing."
When he said the previous sentence, the emperor was very happy, after all, other countries praised their own country, which shows that he, the emperor, has done a good job and let the people live and work in peace and contentment, and the emperor is naturally happy.
Just in the latter sentence, the emperor knew what the other party meant, which was asking him if the people of Dasheng Country were more talented than the people of their country.
The emperor didn't speak, but Princess Qingyang took it with a smile.
"That's natural, and the people of Dasheng are even more amazing than the beauty of our Dasheng country."
Princess Qingyang has experienced a lot of things, and she gives people a calm temperament, and this sentence is answered more appropriately, and the emperor glanced at Princess Qingyang appreciatively.
I think Gu Han is really powerful, what Princess Qingyang used to be like, the emperor knows it clearly, but he followed Gu Han to Jiangnan, and after he came back, it was very different, and he didn't know what happened in Jiangnan to make Princess Qingyang have such a big change.
But no matter what, Princess Qingyang's words made him very satisfied.
When Princess Ning An heard Princess Qingyang's words, she was immediately happy, and a happy smile appeared on her face.
"That's really a trip in vain, I came here this time, but also brought a few questions, I hope to find the answer here, I have long heard that Dasheng is full of talents, I hope someone can help me answer this question."
When the emperor heard this, he immediately understood that the other party's question was definitely not easy to answer, but he was curious, and the other party clearly came with a question, so they naturally couldn't show weakness, and opened their mouths majestically at the moment.
"If you have any questions, you can tell them."
Princess Ning An chuckled, her voice was not in a hurry, but it slowly entered everyone's ears.
The question goes like this: One day, when the hunter went out hunting and did not come home until dark, her wife asked him, "How many wild beasts have you hunted today?" “”
When the hunter heard this, he replied, "Hit 9 beasts without tails, 8 beasts with half a beast, and 6 beasts without heads." ”
"His wife couldn't figure out what he meant, and I wanted to ask how many beasts the hunter had hunted and returned."
This one......
The emperor was silent for a moment and slowly spoke.
"Zhong Aiqing, can anyone answer Princess Ning'an's question."
Everyone, look at me, I look at you with your fingers and counted, but I still don't know what the answer to this question is, 9 without tails, 8 and a half, 6 without heads, how many are these?
And what kind of problem is that? How could anyone ask such a question? None of the witnesses had a definite answer, and the emperor could see it, and everyone didn't know how to answer this question.
At this time, Princess Ning'an spoke herself.
"Princess Ben heard that the second lady of the prime minister's family is both talented and beautiful, I don't know if she can guess the answer to this question?"
This question was originally brought by Princess Ning'an, Princess Ning'an is just a woman, and it is not much honor for these men to answer, if they can't answer it, it will be a shame, so it is better for this question to be answered by a woman, since Princess Ning'an mentioned the second miss of the Prime Minister's Mansion, the emperor asked the second lady to bring over.
Han Qi was originally at home, but he was announced by the emperor, and he didn't know what was going on, since the last attack angered the queen mother, the queen mother directly confiscated the waist card of the attack, and since then Han Qi has no qualifications to enter the palace freely.
Since that day, Han Qi has never entered the palace at all, and this time he was suddenly called over, and Han Qi didn't know what was going on.
At the moment when Han Qi entered the palace, the emperor had already placed the location in the imperial garden, leaving only some knowledgeable ministers, and everyone else was allowed to go home, the emperor looked at a few people and spoke quietly.
"You really don't know the answer to this question?"
If it's because they're embarrassed to say it because they're a girl, that's possible.
It's just that several ministers shook their heads, they really didn't know what the answer to this question was, otherwise, they would have told the people around them and asked them to answer.
One of the officials saw that the emperor was a little unhappy, and spoke directly.
"Don't worry too much about the second miss of Changxiao Mansion at night, she will definitely be able to answer this question, and Princess Ning'an asked Chen Xiaohu's second miss to answer naturally because she wants, and the second miss will be a while, we naturally can't show weakness, Weichen dared to propose, it is better to gather all the talented young ladies over and see who can answer this question."
As the saying goes, one person counts the short, and the other counts the long, so many people he doesn't believe it, and no one can answer the question of Princess Ning'an.
The emperor thought it was a good idea and immediately asked the queen to do it.
The queen knew that this matter was the face of Guan Dashengguo, of course, she didn't dare to delay a little, and immediately summoned all the talented nobles, and after entering the palace, the queen said this problem again.
"The envoy of the neighboring country and Princess Ning'an have arrived in the capital to meet the emperor and ask the emperor a question."
"The question is, one day, when the hunter went out hunting and did not come home until dark, her wife asked him, "How many wild beasts have you come back from hunting today?" “”
When the hunter heard this, he replied, "Hit 9 beasts without tails, 8 beasts with half a beast, and 6 beasts without heads." ”
"His wife couldn't figure out what he meant, and I wanted to ask how many beasts the hunter had hunted and returned."
"If any of you answer this question, this palace will be rewarded."
Talented women, you look at me, I see that you don't have any clue, just feel confused, in this case, if you splice it casually, that is, 9 beasts lack tails, then put the tails of 8 beasts on top of 9, so that 9 wild boars are missing a tail, and then put the tail of one of the beasts in the 6 on top of the 9 beasts, so that 6 beasts without heads, and one without a tail, and then put the remaining 8 and a half beasts into 4 heads, and put them on top of 6 beasts without heads, You can also spell out 4, so that's a total of 13.
One of the talented women thought for a while, and soon found an answer, so that they made up 13 complete beasts, that is, 13.
Han Qi stood up, and opened his mouth very disdainfully, 9 beasts without tails, do you know that 9 beasts are all the same? 8 half-body beasts, you know that there is only the lower half, what if the upper part does not have a tail!
So the previous 13 beasts are not valid, but if there are 13, then how many are there?
While everyone was thinking and meditating, and then set their eyes on Han Qi, Princess Ning'an would handpick Han Qi, it must be this Han Qi who is outstanding, maybe Han Qi can come up with the answer to this question!
However, the time is relatively tight, maybe in such a short time, Han Qi can't think of it at all, but it doesn't matter.
The queen spoke again.
"Han Qi, it doesn't matter if you really can't think of it, I'll take you to see Princess Ning'an, and when you meet Princess Ning'an, you can talk to Princess Ning'an a little more, maybe you can come up with an answer."
Hearing this, Han Qi nodded, but she kept thinking about the answer to this question in her heart, you must know that this is the question of the envoy, if she can answer it, wouldn't it prove that she is smarter than others!
When the time comes, if the emperor rewards her, she directly proposes to marry His Royal Highness King Rong, and the emperor will definitely not refuse at that time.
The more I thought about it, the happier I became, and I couldn't help but think of the answer in my heart, but I didn't have a clue about this question at all.
Soon, Han Qi met Princess Ning'an, Princess Ning'an is a princess of a neighboring country, the nose of a woman from a neighboring country is a little different from that of a woman from Dashengguo, it is more straight, her facial features look more profound, and her eyes look very charming and beautiful.
When Princess Ning'an saw Han Qi, her eyebrows raised slightly, and then she chuckled.
"The reputation of the second lady has been heard of by this princess when she was in her own country, but when I see it today, it is not as famous as far-sighted."
Han Qi didn't hear the deep meaning of Princess Ning'an's words, and after saluting, he stood aside, because Princess Ning'an was the first to speak.
"I already asked my question just now, I don't know if the second lady has the answer?"
Hearing this, everyone's eyes were on Han Qi's body, and Han Qi couldn't help but be a little nervous when he saw everyone looking at it, but after thinking about Princess Ning'an's question again, he still shook his head.
Biting her lip, she still didn't think of the answer to the question, this question is not that simple at all, the emperor looked at her with disappointment, obviously he didn't expect it, and Han Qi didn't think of the answer.
Han Qi didn't see His Royal Highness King Rong in the crowd, thinking that His Royal Highness King Rong had already gone to Baihua County, thinking of this, a trace of jealousy flashed in Han Qi's eyes, and he spoke loudly at the moment.
"Your Majesty, the courtiers don't know how to answer this question, but the courtiers know that one person can answer this question, and this person is now in the capital, and the emperor only needs to announce people into the palace to get the answer."
When the emperor heard this, he immediately looked at Han Qi suspiciously, this question doesn't care who can answer it at all, as long as someone can answer it, and Han Qi is so sure, then this person must know the answer.
The emperor didn't say anything, but the queen asked.
"Are you sure this person can answer this question?"
This matter is related to the face of Dashengguo, but it is not a joke, if they let people come over one after another, but they can't answer Princess Ning'an's question at all, it will be the face of Dashengguo, let alone a reward, the emperor may be very angry.
