Emperor Xiao Wu sat on the dragon chair in a golden dragon robe, looking at the world, and his innate imperial domineering made people tremble.

"How many scholars have solved the answer to the puzzle this time?"

Emperor Xiao Wu seemed to ask casually, and his dark and bottomless eyes were like a pool of deep water that was so submerged that people couldn't breathe.

Zeng Tai lowered his head, didn't dare to look at him, and said with a little nervousness, "There are a total of thirty-eight people who have solved this problem. ”

Hearing this, Emperor Xiao Wudi's face was expressionless, and his right hand rhythmically hit the armrest of the incomparably expensive dragon chair, not knowing what he was thinking.

Seeing this, Zeng Tai frowned slightly, his heart was like a rattle, his lips trembled, and he stopped talking.

"Shangguo is really full of heroes, all the sages are gathered, and Yue'er is convinced."

"I'm going to come up with the second question that month!" Wu Yue'er bowed and saluted respectfully to Emperor Xiao Wu.

"Princess Yue'er, please!" Emperor Xiao Wu smiled faintly, with a hint of inexplicability in his eyes.

When the scholars heard that the second question was next, they were all gearing up, and they were bound to be ashamed.

As for the Hanlin Academy, they are much more relaxed, well-informed, and calculating, and no one is wrong on the first question.

For Wu Yue'er's second question, the scholars of the Hanlin Academy were confident.

"Yue'er's second question is, who is Rice's mother? Who is the father? ”

"Who is my grandfather and grandmother?"

Well, when this question came out, Li Luodi, who was originally eating bananas comfortably, was choked in an instant, almost choked, and hurriedly picked up the wine on the table and poured it down, and his throat was much more comfortable.

"Brother Li, you choked on eating a banana?" Wang Fatzi was on the side, laughing wildly.

Li Luodi turned a deaf ear to his ridicule, and between the frowns of his eyebrows, there was a faint hint of disbelief and surprise.

Could it be that this little princess of Western Xia also crossed over?

When Wu Yue'er's second question came out, there was an instant uproar.

"Rice's father, mother, isn't this pure?"

"Even my grandfather and grandmother came."

"Isn't rice a grain? Aren't its parents rice? ”

There are a lot of discussions on the scholars' side, and there are even some scholars who are faintly angry, just playing word games, and now they are still getting a rice kinship, isn't this nonsense?

The Hanlin Academy is relatively calm, but the eyebrows are firmly wrinkled from time to time, and a question mark is formed between the eyebrows, bowing his head and contemplating.

As for the emperor's relatives and relatives, civil and military officials, they are all like watching a play, and they have nothing to do with themselves.

"Ninth sister, you are the smartest in our group, is this nonsense for you to say."

Xiao Feng, the seventh prince on the side of the ninth princess Xiao Shuilan, came over and asked curiously.

As soon as he asked, many princes and princesses turned their eyes to her.

Hearing this, Xiao Shuilan's willow eyebrows were slightly raised, when she was not wearing armor, she was elegant and vulgar, with a light and spiritual aura, delicate skin, a clever smile, and a peach cheek with a smile.

"I have heard that the little princess Wu Yue'er of Xixia is talented and intelligent, and she has a blue heart."

"Since she has this problem, it must not be without purpose."

"That's it!" Xiao Feng's essence flashed, and an inexplicable meaning quickly flashed in his eyes, looking at Wu Yue'er's graceful figure, with a hint of strong possession.

"Princess Yue'er, are you sure your second question is this one?"

Zeng Tai, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, also frowned, he boasted that he was well-informed and knowledgeable, and he had never seen such a question.

"Yue'er is sure, there is definitely an accurate answer to this question!"

"It's impossible for Yue'er to take a fantasy question and use it to deceive the king!"

"You can't joke about the friendship between the two countries. In this way, Yue'er is not a sinner in the two countries. ”

Wu Yue'er stood up, the courtesy was in place, and there was a hint of firmness in her soft words.

"This...."Zeng Tai browled a little hesitantly, and immediately turned his gaze to Emperor Xiao Wu, and when he saw the latter gently bowing his head, he breathed a sigh of relief.

"Since Princess Yue'er said so, let's start!"

"However, this question is a bit difficult, can I delay the answer time for half an hour more than half an hour?"

"It's nature!" Wu Yue'er nodded slightly.

"The scholars began to answer the question, and this question was a little weird, so you can't answer the question with a trace of common sense, and think about it more." Zeng Tai thought about it, and used some of his experience to prompt.

Seeing this, Wu Yue'er just smiled, as if she hadn't seen it.

Liao Huaiying saw that most people in Daming Zhou frowned on this topic, and he was also happy in his heart at the moment, and this kind of scene was happy to see.

In any case, Liao Huaiying is also from Western Xia.

Li Luodi looked at the rice paper in front of the table in a daze, and then sighed slightly, a little trance, I didn't expect to see this question in this world.

Immediately, he no longer hesitated, and the answer was written on the paper in three or two clicks.

This question is a bit ahead of its time, and it is quite difficult for people in this era.

Li Luodi, who put down the pen, stretched his waist, and immediately looked at Wang Fatzi on the side, instantly stunned.

Just because Wang Fatzi handed in the paper earlier than him, he played with the pen with both hands, his five fingers were smart, and the pen was like a flexible little snake at the tip of his fingers, playing with a thief.

Of course, the ink on the nib of the pen that had not yet dried almost fell on Li Luodi.

"This time, why did the fat brother solve the problem so quickly?" Li Luodi took his gaze as a prelude, and his eyes were full of curiosity.

"Don't leak it!" Wang Fatzi looked up at the sky at forty-five degrees, carrying his hands behind his back, and escaped from a forced king.

Seeing this, the corners of Li Luodi's mouth twitched slightly, and he looked around, should I say it or not, the ancient palace banquet is different, magnificent and magnificent.

Ancient women, wearing Hanfu, really have a unique flavor, the Chinese woman's bookish atmosphere, fair lady, gentle and elegant, vividly portrayed, vivid.

The hour had come, and all the scholars had a bitter gourd face and handed over the paper sullenly.

and Fang Cai's kind of complacent and high-spirited, presenting two situations.

Zeng Tai took the expressions of the scholars into his eyes, frowned at the moment, and immediately glanced at Li Zhengqing, a scholar of the Hanlin Academy, without a trace.

It seems that hope can only be placed on the side of the Hanlin Academy.

Today's three questions, Daming Zhou can only win and not lose, this is the only order issued by Emperor Xiao Wu.

When Wu Yue'er saw that the answer sheet was collected, she was white and red, and her peach cheeks smiled, "I don't know who can solve this problem?" ”

Hearing this, many people bowed their heads and remained silent, not scrambling like the first question.

After a while, when Emperor Xiao Wudi's expression gradually became a little gloomy, a scholar stood up, hesitated for a while, and then said, "The relatives that Princess Fang Caiyue'er said, Xiaosheng thinks that they are all sunshine, soil, rain, and man-made. ”

"Only when these work together can rice be produced."

As soon as the words came out, many people subconsciously nodded in agreement, including the bachelors of the Hanlin Academy.

The scholar saw that many people nodded in agreement, and without the previous timidity, he became more and more confident, "Therefore, Xiaosheng feels that Princess Yue'er's question is a fog that induces us to think about other places." ”

"Therefore, it is really common sense that only these combined seeds can produce rice."

His remarks were instantly supported by many people.

"This son is thoughtful and intelligent!" Wu Yue'er said with a smile.

When the scholar heard this, he was overjoyed, thinking that he had answered this question correctly, and he was in high spirits at the moment, and he couldn't help but puff up his chest, with a hint of pride in his eyes.

As if to say, look, I can't answer such a simple question, and I have to come out.

As soon as he thought of showing his face among so many royal relatives and civil and military officials, and being rewarded by the saints, he was furious.

The other scholars who also wrote similar answers were frustrated and resented that they didn't have the courage to stand up and answer the questions.

Just when everyone thought it was this answer, Wu Yue'er changed her voice and smiled apologetically, "Childe answered very well, but it is not the final answer." ”

Wow!

There was another uproar, but it was not the final answer.

So what's the final answer? It's a question on everyone's mind.

I saw that the scholar suddenly blushed, and a trace of embarrassment was clearly visible, and he hurriedly sat down in his place.

Just when everyone was discussing and discussing, blushing and red-eared.

There were several eyes looking at a figure in the far corner, and that person was unhurried, like Li Luodi who was out of the way.

"Can he answer?" Nightshade looked at Li Luodi in the corner, her good-looking eyelashes fluttering, with a hint of curiosity.

Li Luodi gave her the feeling that he was smart, thoughtful, sleek, affectionate and mysterious.

"Who?" Qinglong scratched his head, not knowing why.

"It seems that I have to go out of the horse!" Wang Fatzi looked around, and saw that no one stood up, his hands trembled slightly, he couldn't control the excitement in his heart, his breathing suddenly became short, and a stream of hot blood rushed into his Tianling Gai, prompting him to stand up at once.

In an instant, his chubby body stood out from the crowd, and everyone's eyes were on him.

"Is this scholar going to answer the question?" Zeng Tai glanced at it, which made him a somewhat familiar figure, and asked lightly.

In fact, he didn't have much expectations for this kind of scholar who was behind.

Although Li Luodi, who amazed everyone with his poetry, also sat next to this fat man, he was ranked nineteenth.

"Yes, I.... I want to answer the question! The look on Fat Wang's face was both nervous and excited, and he inevitably stammered a little.

"Please!" Zeng Tai waved lightly, signaling that he could start.

When Wang Fatzi stood up, there was a trace of disdain in the eyes of many people, who was so low in the ranking, could answer this question?

Wouldn't it embarrass those of them who are at the top of the rankings?

On Wenchen's side, Wang Ying, the waiter of the Ministry of Works, saw his son standing up, and blew his beard angrily, how many catties and taels does this kid have, doesn't he know it? Do you stand up and lose your father's face?

"Lord Wang, this scholar seems to be your child, right?" Wang Ying's colleague on the side asked curiously.

"I don't know!" Wang Ying waved his hand, looking like he didn't know.

"Could it be that this official admitted that he was wrong?" The colleague frowned, confused. But that chubby body and fat face seem to be Wang Jie's kid!

Wang Fatzi glanced at Li Luodi on the side, who looked at him with encouraging eyes, immediately clenched his fists, took a deep breath, and seemed to be less nervous again, and said slowly.

"The mother of the rice in this question is a peanut, I don't know Princess Yue'er, what Xiaosheng said is right?"
