Chapter 226: Clever Unchaining Locks
"What Madame said is really reasonable, but Sihan is shallow, Madame's vision is really admirable!!" Xia Sihan said flatteringly, and the lady immediately showed a proud look when she heard it, and she enjoyed the praise very much.
This is an excellent opportunity to make money, as long as Xia Sihan has a good relationship with them, is he afraid that there will be no way to make money in the future? The first thing to bear the brunt is this lady who dares to tell the truth, and learned from Mrs. Liu that she is the wife of Ji Handong, a scholar of the Hanlin Academy, Xia Sihan searched in his mind, and there was no impression, it seems that it is another change, but since he knows it, he must make good use of it.
Mrs. Liu pulled her aside and admonished: "There are some things to say, but you have to remember the occasion, don't reveal your opinions casually, you don't know if someone listens to you and gives you small shoes to wear behind your back!" ”
She always thought that Xia Sihan was smart, and she didn't want this girl to be a brainer who talks and does things. Mrs. Liu's teachings made Xia Sihan grateful, although she knew what she said, but only she would sincerely warn herself.
"Madame, don't worry, Sihan knows it."
"If you know, it's good."
Mrs. Liu breathed a sigh of relief, and at this time, there was a drumstick, and the audience was silent.
Murong Yu stood up from a high place and said loudly: "Today's competition is divided into three games, the first one is asked by the five princes, the second is a martial arts competition, and the final winner is the princess herself. Next, let's ask the five princes to ask the question! ”
Mo Xuan stood up and just smiled: "Mo Xuan is polite!" I have long heard that Murong is an outstanding person, and I made a gadget a few months ago, and this gadget has a name, called Jiuqu Linglong Lock. After I studied for several months and couldn't unlock it, I brought it today, hoping that a few people from Murong Guo could help me unlock this lock. ”
As soon as Mo Xuan's voice fell, he asked people to present a tray, Xia Sihan could see clearly, there was a white jade lock in the plate, and the lock was nine interlocking, without joints, which was very difficult to solve.
As soon as this little gadget came out, the five people went up to study it, scratching their ears and cheeks. Xia Sihan sneered, others didn't know her, but they knew that this nine-song chain lock was a treasure, but it was not unsolvable, and she happened to know this solution. If it weren't for the fact that this competition had nothing to do with herself, she would definitely have to earn back face for Murong Guo.
But after a long time, the sons of the family on the field still couldn't come up with a way, Xia Sihan looked at Mo Xuan, but saw him laughing at Mo Yang, and he was very unhappy. If they didn't pass this first level, those sons would be too embarrassed to lose face in Murong Guo.
Seeing this, Xia Sihan looked at Murong Xue curiously. The nervousness on Murong Xue's face at this moment was not fake, she was afraid, and the fear in her eyes made her feel a little distressed.
Originally, Xia Sihan was a little hesitant whether to tell her the answer, but when she thought of what she had done to her, Xia Sihan couldn't wait to whip her, and immediately dispelled that thought.
"This question has been out for an hour, I think Murong Guo is full of talents, how can he be better than me, please give me advice!" The smugness on Mo Xuan's face was too obvious, and Murong Yu glanced in his direction, and the smile on the corner of his mouth became even more obvious.
"This bunch of shit, who are you choosing!" Prince Murong Feng couldn't help but scold on the side.
Murong Yu looked aggrieved: "Brother Huang, you can't blame me, this is also a real election." Didn't you have a problem at the beginning? I can only blame this Mo Xuan's question for being too tricky, and even I can't think of it. ”
Murong Yu's explanation made Murong Feng's face darken, no matter what, these fools can't solve it. He immediately turned his head to find a way for the scholar, and he was so anxious that he turned around. Xia Sihan saw clearly from the sidelines that Murong Yu was deliberate, wanting them to have to give up in the end. Indeed, to retaliate against the queen is to fight from her seven inches, and Murong Xue is her weakness.
"In my opinion, this thing is not unsolvable, but a problem that you are reluctant to give." Suddenly, Xia Sihan spoke up in the audience, everyone looked back at her, and Mo Xuan saw that it was her, and his eyebrows and eyes were crooked with a smile.
Xia Sihan didn't have a good impression of these five princes, and now he still wanted to use this stupid method to disgrace Murong Guo, the problem was that this little trick really made the prince of the family helpless. Xia Sihan was very aggrieved in his heart, and after some entanglement, he made this decision. She didn't do it for Murong Xue, but she didn't want Murong Guo to become the laughing stock of other countries.
"The young lady is smart, and she is willing to hear about it." Mo Xuan's voice shocked everyone, and some people recognized her as Li Jinyan's wife.
There was an uproar for a while, and she didn't know what she wanted to do, but she was afraid that she would offend the distinguished guests, and if she messed up and made the emperor and queen unhappy, it would be a capital crime.
Li Jinyan was also worried, he knew that Xia Sihan was smart, but this matter was not trivial. He also saw that the five princes were by no means good, and if they were not handled well, there would be one more person to deal with in the future. They still know too little about the five princes, and they don't know how vicious his methods can be. If he has a grudge with him today, he will definitely wait for an opportunity to retaliate in the future, and it is difficult to guarantee that Xia Sihan will not be put in danger when the time comes.
Thinking of this, Li Jinyan panicked in his heart, and wanted to cross the crowd to stop Xia Sihan, but it was too late.
Xia Sihan's voice was loud, and everyone was shocked. Murong Xue was even more surprised, did Xia Sihan want to help her?
Mo Xuan looked at the confident woman sitting in the court, and stretched out his hand to signal, "If Madame can solve it, I will lose this game." ”
"In fact, there are two solutions to the Jiuqu Linglong Lock, but the second one is more time-consuming, so I choose the first one." Xia Sihan got up, Li Jinyan, who had already come to her side in this matter, was worried, and inadvertently pulled her sleeve. Xia Sihan turned around and gave him a reassuring look, Li Jinyan reluctantly let go of his hand, he was ready to send it at the moment.
Everyone watched her get up and walk to the Linglong lock, Murong Yu looked worried, this woman, if this situation is not broken, Mo Xuan is ninety percent sure that she can win. But seeing that she is so calm, I think I am a little sure, I am afraid that my plan will be disturbed by this woman.
"This Young Lady Li is really smart, third brother, you invited the person, right?"
Murong Feng's words made Murong Yu clench his fists, but there was a faint smile on his face.
"I invited it, I wanted to see that Master Li's body was better, and asked them to come over to join in the fun, but I didn't expect to be able to help the royal sister."
Xia Sihan, do you want to be friends with the queen? Murong Yu couldn't help but tense up when he thought of this. If they Ning Wangfu also sided with the crown prince, it would be even more difficult for their plan to succeed, and their previous efforts would be in vain.
Xia Sihan went straight to the center of the stands, took the crystal clear chain lock in his hand and played with it, and looked directly at Mo Xuan. The latter didn't speak, just nodded her head to signal that she could get started. Xia Sihan didn't think about it, and raised his hand to smash the nine-curved exquisite lock.
Suddenly, everyone in the audience was dumbfounded, Xia Sihan looked at Mo Xuan after smashing, then at Murong Yu, and turned back to his position.
"This ......"
Murong Yu didn't know what to say, and after a short silence, Mo Xuan spoke, "Madam is really smart, no wonder Fang just asked me if I was reluctant, I lost this game!" ”
His words made everyone who was already surprised even more surprised, and at the same time made them understand that Mo Xuan only said that it could not be destroyed, and there was no rule that it could not be destroyed. Now that the Linglong lock was smashed, it was naturally untied, and he couldn't help but applaud Xia Sihan.
