Chapter 550: With such a purpose
Chi Yue had wondered why the queen had arranged herself by her side before, but now it seems that it was just to say this.
If she loses, it will be the grain of a county's income, but if she wins, it will be 10,000 war horses, and there is another point, that is, the emperor will personally give her and His Royal Highness King Rong a marriage.
Finally, the queen's voice was very low, and I am afraid that except for the two of them, no one else could hear it at all.
It seems that she must answer this question, otherwise if she wants to marry His Royal Highness King Rong, I'm afraid it's not that simple, if this question can be answered, she will personally give them a marriage at night, but if she can't answer it, the result will naturally be that they can't be together.
Hearing this, Chi Yue chuckled.
"The queen is so sure that the beauty can answer this question?"
The smile on the queen's face was very gentle, and there was no wave at all.
"I believe that your ability will definitely be able to answer it, this question, if you can't answer it, then think about it, there is always a solution to the problem, if you can't solve this problem, let alone you, even this palace will be in trouble."
"This matter, the emperor handed it over to the palace and His Royal Highness King Rong, so if this matter is not handled well, whether it is the palace or His Royal Highness King Rong, they will be punished."
The queen mother kicked the ball back with a smile, and put pressure on Chi Yue by the way, if you answer, then His Royal Highness King Rong will be safe, but if you can't answer, His Royal Highness King Rong will be punished.
Don't say anything fair or unfair, in this era, the imperial power is like this, and the emperor alone has the final say.
Chi Yue had no room to refute, and looked at Princess Ning'an, Princess Ning'an seemed to be watching the performance, but in fact, she had been paying attention to Chi Yue's every move, seeing Chi Yue's calm smile on her face, and she looked like she was winning, her heart suddenly "chuckled", and her eyes couldn't help but flash a trace of worry.
If this question is answered again, their country will give Dasheng 10,000 war horses, you must know that they already have no food, if they give Dasheng another 10,000 war horses, it will be even worse.
Chi Yue looked at the worry that flashed in Princess Ning'an's eyes, and couldn't help but wonder in her heart, logically speaking, this question was raised by Princess Ning'an, since Princess Ning'an can say that she can give Dasheng 10,000 war horses, it should be able to take it out, 10,000 war horses, which country is a big help.
Although the war horses of the neighboring countries are more powerful than the Dasheng country, but taking out 10,000 war horses at once, it is not a small effort, although Princess Ning'an is favored in the neighboring country, but such a thing is not something that a princess can decide, so this matter is full of strangeness, why did Princess Ning'an make such a request?
Chi Yue was puzzled in her heart, but she didn't show it on her face, halfway through the song and dance, Princess Ning'an looked at Chi Yue, and Chi Yue immediately smiled.
"This question raised by the princess is a little difficult, and the beauty needs to think about it carefully before she can give the princess an answer, so it is better for the folk girl to come over tomorrow and say the final answer."
When Princess Ning'an heard Chi Yue's words, her face was still as calm as ever, but he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.
She thought that this Chi Yue was so powerful, but she could come up with the answer immediately after hearing the question, and she was originally very worried, but she was relieved to see that Chi Yue did not answer directly.
"It's natural."
"That breast milk will wait for Miss Chi's answer tomorrow."
Go back in the evening.
Chi Yue called Mo Qiudong over, Mo Qiudong has been dealing with things here in the capital recently, so he came quickly.
Mo Qiudong was very respectful when he saw Chi Yue.
"Miss, you called me, but what do you have to order?"
Chi Yue motioned for Mo Qiudong to sit down, Mo Qiudong should know about the affairs of neighboring countries.
"I called you here to ask about Ningbo, is there a shortage of food in neighboring countries?"
When Mo Qiudong heard this, although he didn't know why Miss suddenly had something to do with the grain of the neighboring country, he still answered very pertinently.
"Miss, you may not know that the neighboring countries have been in a severe drought for the past two years, and there is no grain harvest, and it is said that there is not much stock in the treasury, so they are not just short of food, but very short of food."
"A lot of our grain goes to neighboring countries, and the income is ten times that of our country, and even then there is no market for food."
Rich people can naturally afford to eat high-priced grain, but some ordinary people can't afford it.
But they are businessmen, and this matter is a matter of neighboring countries, so it is not easy to help.
Chi Yue nodded, no wonder Princess Ning'an would put forward such a condition, Chi Yue suddenly knew it in her heart.
"How is the income from our fields this year?"
Mo Qiudong was happy when he mentioned this.
"Miss, according to your instructions, the grain we grow is several times that of other people's harvests, and we not only won the grain, but also planted a lot of vegetables, and by the way, we contracted all the surrounding fertile fields."
Mo Qiudong had to admire his own young lady when he said this, so many ideas, and what kind of land to grow and what kind of food, all according to the young lady's instructions, the result is that their family harvests several times more grain than other people's families, and the same field is two or three times more than others.
What is the concept of two or three times, that is, the same field, just like you have three times more fields than others, and if this continues, it will be difficult for them not to make money.
"By the way, Miss, and the hybrid rice you gave us last time, the yield is very high, and the grain produced is even more delicious."
Hearing this, Chi Yue nodded.
"Okay, I know about this matter, fill the warehouse, keep the grain for me to use, and the silk village, how is it over there?"
Chi Yue handed over all the business to Zhou Xinzhi, and Mo Qiudong was an errand runner, and he was involved in all the business, and he knew everything about it.
Otherwise, how could everyone call Mo Qiudong Mo Guanshi!
Hearing this, Mo Qiudong nodded, and slowly spoke.
"Business in the Silk Village is normal, what's wrong?"
Chi Yue shook her head.
"Have you taken care of everything in the capital?"
Mo Qiudong heard this and nodded.
"Yes, I'm going back to Jiangnan in a few days, two days ago your brother sent a letter, knowing that I met you, and let me tell you that the old man misses you very much, and if you have time, write a few more letters back, and go back often."
The old man is old, and the car is tired, and it is a little unrealistic to come to the capital to see her.
Chi Yue nodded.
The next day, Chi Yue appeared in front of Princess Ning'an on time, at the last banquet, Chi Yue was careful for a day, and in the end nothing happened, today the location was changed to the Imperial Garden, or the queen mother herself presided.
It's still those people, everyone is very exclusive to Chi Yue, Han Qi saw Chi Yue coming, and immediately spoke loudly.
"Chi Yue, you're finally here, everyone is waiting for you to answer this question! After thinking about it for a day, did you think of the answer? ”
The queen mother looked at Chi Yue with a smile on her face.
"It's okay, don't worry, let's take a seat first, and after taking a seat, we'll talk slowly."
After Chi Yue took a seat, Han Qi spoke again.
"Chi Yue, if you know the answer, just say it! Those of us who thought about it for a day couldn't come up with an answer! You're smarter than us, and you're sure to figure it out this time. ”
Princess Qingyang was not there at the last banquet because there was something, but now when she heard Han Qi say this, she suddenly opened her mouth unhappily.
"You can't say that, Miss Han can't answer the question, how can someone else answer it! After all, compared to being famous, Chi Yue and no second lady have a good reputation. ”
Han Qi was suddenly choked by Princess Qingyang and couldn't say a word.
The queen mother watched the two of you come and go, and hurriedly spoke.
"Okay, Qingyang, come and sit."
"Chi Yue, have you thought of an answer?"
The queen looked at Chi Yue, and Chi Yue nodded.
"The folk girl is only a shallow learner, and after thinking about it all night, she finally came up with the answer, but she didn't know if it was right."
Everyone immediately looked at Chi Yue, everyone didn't expect that Chi Yue could really come up with an answer, and immediately looked at Chi Yue suspiciously.
Princess Ning'an's heart tightened, but she still spoke very generously.
"Since Miss Chi Yue has already thought of the answer, then you might as well say it!"
Hearing this, Chi Yue slowly spoke.
"Actually, this answer is very simple, and it is very similar to the first question."
"The answer is that one end of the rope is tied to the sheep's neck, but the other end is not tied to the tree, so the sheep are free and can eat pasture."
Everyone's eyes couldn't help but fall on Princess Ning'an, waiting for Princess Ning'an to say the final result.
Princess Ning'an's smile gradually became reluctant, she didn't expect Chi Yue to really answer this question, and she reluctantly spoke at the moment.
"Miss Chi is really powerful, this question was also guessed correctly by you, the answer is that the rope is not tied to the tree, so the sheep can eat the grass."
After hearing this, the queen mother suddenly breathed a sigh of relief in her heart.
After answering two questions correctly in a row, Princess Ning'an's smile could no longer be maintained, and the worry in her eyes gradually became obvious.
Now that the second question has been typed, Princess Ning An should also say the title of the third question.
Princess Ning'an looked reluctant.
"The third question is also very simple, there is a family that has a monkey, and this monkey likes to imitate human movements."
"On this day, a man walked up to the monkey and stroked his chin with his right hand, and the monkey stroked his chin with his right hand, and the man closed his left eye, and the monkey closed his left eye, and the man opened his left eye, and the monkey immediately opened his left eye."
"But then this person made an action, and the monkey had no way to imitate anything, what kind of action did this person do, so difficult to imitate?"
"Queen Mother, as I said before, if you answer this question, 15,000 war horses will be given to Dasheng Kingdom, but if you can't answer this question, your grain will be sent to my country unconditionally."
When the queen mother heard this, she spoke decisively.
"Of course, this is what was said before, and we will definitely keep this promise."
