The Problem (36)

"The royal sister has a noble status, and she only does the main room." Beitang replied unhurriedly.

"That's nature!" Regulus said.

"Among all the princes, only the fifth prince, the sixth prince, and the eighth prince have not yet established concubines." Beitang said.

"Indeed!" Xuanyuan chimed in, his whole eyes narrowed.

The entire Xuan Dynasty should know about it, right?

"The emperor's favorite person is the prince of Xuanli, the fifth prince, and I am willing to ask the emperor to fulfill it." Beitang finally spoke.

His Highness was in an uproar.

I know the result that Beitang wants to say, but I didn't expect him to talk about it at this stall, in front of many ministers and guests.

"Your Majesty, my younger brother is still guarding the frontier, and I don't think about marriage for the time being, I hope the emperor will see it." Xiao Xuanxuan stood up directly, looking at his appearance, he shouldn't have thought that Beitang would be like this.

There was a soft sobbing sound during the banquet. It turned out to be Princess Yiling, in this public place, Xiao Xuanxuan said that, which was indeed a bit face-hurting.

"The fifth prince is indeed still on the frontier, and he will not be able to return to Beijing in nearly two years, how about looking at other princes?" Xuanyuan actually helped Xiao Xuanxuan to say.

Before Beitang could answer, suddenly Princess Yiling stood up, Ying Ying stepped forward, saluted Xuanyuan, choked and said: "Your Majesty, the little girl and the fifth prince have just met, he doesn't know much about the little girl, please give the little girl a chance to let the little girl live in the palace, if the fifth prince can't fall in love with the little girl in a month, the little girl will give up." Please ask the emperor for permission! ”

"Princess Yiling is like this, what else does the emperor have to say, I agreed." Xiao Xuanxuan opened his mouth and was about to speak, but Xuanyuan interrupted him.

I was shocked by Yiling's behavior, in this era, a woman, in order to pursue her own love, dares to do this, of course, it is admirable. Sure enough, the hall also remembered the applause.

Princess Yiling walked up to Xiao Xuanxuan and saluted: "Please rest assured, the fifth prince, temporarily accept the little girl, the little girl is also a person who is full of words." ”

Xiao Xuanxuan couldn't say a word. Naturally, he couldn't say anything more. Does that mean that we will stay in Xuancheng for an extra month after this?

Beitang is the same, he has slept with Xiao Xuanxuan, don't you know that the person Xiao Xuanxuan likes is him? Although I firmly disagree, they are fine, do I have good fruit to eat at this hour union (someone is nosy)?

After Princess Yiling returned to her seat, the only two white-skinned foreigners among all the guests got up and walked to the middle of the main hall.

“Our king sends his warmest regards to you!” A tall man said.

“Happy Birthday to you!” Said another, slightly shorter one.

No one in the hall answered, and Xuanyuan obviously didn't understand what the two men were saying. Looking at his expression, I knew that he was not a modern-day Zeng Ke, and Zeng Ke would not understand this simple conversation.

"Our interpretor feel terrible,he is ill,who can help us?" The tall man was anxious when he saw that no one was talking.

"What are they talking about?" Frogskin asked me quietly, looking like he was in a hurry. In the exchanges between the two countries, if you don't understand what the other side says, you can't communicate with each other, will this affect the relationship between the two countries?

"Did Zhong Aiqing understand what the two of them said?" Xuanyuan asked directly.

But no one answered.

"Isn't there a person with insight in my big country?" Seeing that no one answered, Xuanyuan couldn't help but feel a little disappointed in his tone.

“Let me help you!” A voice sounded in the hall, of course it couldn't be anyone else, it was me, a high-achieving student who had worn here from modern times. My mother said, "Give people roses, leave fragrance in your hands", if I don't come forward, the face of this Xuan Kingdom will be gone.

All the eyes of everyone in the hall were focused on me, I really didn't think too much about it, I just wanted to help the person who looked like Déjà vu to break the siege.

"Your Majesty, the two of them are saying that they have brought the king's most sincere wishes, and I wish you a happy birthday!" I said to Xuanyuan.

His eyes were staring straight at me, maybe he was wondering where such a first person came from.

“If you can answer our questions,We have gift sent。” The tall man seems to have found a life-saving grass.

"He said if we could answer the questions they brought, they would give them a big gift!"

Xuanyuan seemed to come back to his senses: "Please tell them!" ”

The tall foreigner didn't speak to Xuanyuan this time, but turned directly to me, and he told me that their king had three questions.

I translated the question in the original language: "The first thing their king raised was: there were two prisoners in a cell. Every day, the prison provided a jar of soup to the cell, and the two inmates shared it among themselves. At first, the two would often get into an argument because they always had someone who thought that the other person had more soup than their own. Later, they found a way to get the best of both worlds: one person divided the soup and the other chose first. And so the dispute was settled. However, now a new prisoner has been added to this cell, and now there are three people to divide the soup. A new way must be found to maintain peace between them. What to do? ”

"Who can answer the questions they ask?" Regulus followed my words and asked.

After a long time, someone finally spoke: "Brother Chen thinks that it can be like this, you can designate A to divide three bowls of soup, and B chooses to pour the most and least into the water and divide it equally into the remaining two bowls, let Ding choose first, followed by A, and finally B." Xiao Xuanxuan stood up and replied.

Xiao Xuanxuan is really smart, I analyzed it a little and thought that his answer was correct, so I directly translated the answer to the two foreigners.

Sure enough, the two of them applauded directly to express their satisfaction.

"The second problem is that a fork in the road leads to the honest and the liar. Two men came, and it was known that one was of the honest nation and the other was of the lying nation. The honest nation will always tell the truth, and the lying nation will always tell lies. Now you're going to lie and don't know which way to go, you need to ask these two people. How should I ask? ”

I seem to have played with friends in the dormitory with such a question, and the other guests in the hall began to talk in a whisper, but no one came out to answer, I looked at Xiao Xuanxuan, but his eyes looked at the other side, and sitting opposite was the sixth prince, the man in white and elegant in my memory. "Xuan Ze", "Ze", at this time, I suddenly remembered that the frog skin said that the sixth prince seems to be called Xuan Ze, is he the "Ze" that Xiao Xuan Xuan never forgets?

I was caught up in my own discovery!

Suddenly, I heard a foreigner ask this Xuanguo, no one can answer this question?

Who says you can't answer? I came to my senses.

"I will ask: I am going to your country, how do I get there? Then go in the opposite direction of the direction pointed by passers-by." I didn't look back, still looking in the direction of Xiao Xuanxuan, but the answer slowly came out of my mouth.

The two foreigners seemed to be stunned, and it took a long time before they began to ask the third question, and I translated absentmindedly: "Their third question is, other countries have less arable land, more barren slopes, and lack of food, how can your country help them?" ”

"You can buy food from my Xuanguo." Regulus said.

"They said it was too far away and it was inconvenient to transport." I translated the meaning of those two to Regulus.

"Is there a better way for the Qing family?" Xuanyuan asked loudly.

No one answered for a long time.

"Your Majesty, I have a way, I don't know if it's appropriate?" I say.

"You speak." Regulus said with interest.

"I think we can import some of the food, but we still have to grow it ourselves. The situation in other countries can be adapted to local conditions and the terraces opened up on the slopes of the hills can be planned as a whole. Under necessary conditions, it can also cooperate with soil and water conservation projects such as horizontal ditches, such as enclosing stone walls, to prevent soil loss and improve the water retention and erosion resistance of slope cultivated land....." I also talked in detail about the construction of terraces.

Xuanyuan nodded frequently, and I translated to the two people, who looked at me in disbelief, and when I finished speaking, the two stepped forward and held my hand: "You to help solve the problem, millions of thanks!" ”

“”Hope to help you !” I said modestly.

I turned to Xuanyuan again and said, "Your Majesty, they said thank you very much for helping them solve their big problems!" "Look at my sycophant, there shouldn't be any traces, right?

Sure enough, Xuanyuan Longyan was happy.

One of the two clapped twice, only to see two attendants carry a tall box from behind. The tall foreigner opened the box as he spoke.

"This is a music box given by the king of our country, which has just been developed by our craftsmen, and you can listen to beautiful music just by screwing the clockwork." I translated the man's words.

The box was opened, it was really a giant music box, and the back was still a mirror with very high definition, close to a modern glass mirror. The tall foreigner stepped forward, turned a handle a few times, and then let go, and the music sounded softly, the sound was like a fluttering butterfly dancing in the air, and it was also like a dingdong spring flowing in the mountains, and everyone was intoxicated by the beautiful music melody.

"Wonderful, wonderful!" Xuanyuan obviously didn't expect such a thing to exist in the world.

I'm also curious, could it be that the invention of the music box started in this era?

The tall foreigner turned the switch on, and the music stopped.

“Good emperor everything - meaning! ” The two men said in unison, and withdrew.
