In the center of the banquet.

The three inner and outer three layers of the sphere were all surrounded by figures, rubbing shoulders one after another.

Wang Fatzi relied on his physical advantage, three in and three out, before he broke out of the encirclement and squeezed to the front position.

Of course, there are also many people who can't pull their faces, they are all standing in the distance and watching, with an expression of shame to be with these people.

"Brother Xia, the little brother is very curious, you also wrote the correct answer to the second question, why did you let that fat man be in the limelight?"

Tanhua made Fox Si frown and said the doubts in Fang Cai's heart.

Hearing this, Huang Wei was also curious, and he also cast his eyes on it at the moment.

For Xia Qingfeng's ability to solve the fanciful problem of rice kinship, the two of them deeply admired.

"This time, the three questions of the princess of Xixia, the saint intends to consider this year's group of scholars as a court exam."

"I've already been in the limelight for the first question, and it's a little inappropriate to grab the rest."

Xia Qingfeng raised a smile, gentle as water, as if bathed in the sun.

"I think the reason why Brother Xia stood up to solve the first question is that I am afraid that he was stimulated by someone!" Huang Wei smiled faintly and pointed out.

Hearing this, Ling Husi raised his eyebrows and said with a smile, "You mean that the magic pen scholar Li Luodi?" ”

"This person is indeed far superior to me in terms of poetry!" Xia Qingfeng nodded very freely.

"Although the poems are above, we are ashamed of ourselves."

"But I don't necessarily think that this Li Luodi can overpower me in terms of talent, otherwise he won't be on the nineteenth list."

Linghu Si nodded, and then smiled lightly. In terms of poetry, Li Luodi is indeed better, but judging from the rankings, he is inferior to the three of them in other aspects.

"Brother Linghu, I agree with this." Huang Wei agrees, as the top three tripods on this year's list, they also have their own arrogance and confidence in their own strength.

Hearing this, Xia Qingfeng smiled lightly, didn't say anything, and Huang Wei and Ling Husi touched the wine glass and continued to drink.

"Having said that, what does Brother Xia have to say about this third question?" Huang Wei's face was slightly drunk, and he asked curiously.

Hearing this, Xia Qingfeng thought for a long time, and then seemed to exhale lightly, shook his head and smiled bitterly, "I don't have a clue yet." ”

After Huang Wei and Ling Husi glanced at each other, they also shook their heads and smiled bitterly, obviously they didn't have any thoughts.

Brother Li Luo, you have a way to solve it, right? Xia Qingfeng raised his wine glass, looked at Li Luodi, who was drinking tea comfortably in the far corner, and muttered to himself.

For some reason, Li Luodi gave him a very special feeling, and he always felt that this person was not under him.

"Why don't you go and join in the fun?"

Li Luodi, who was drinking tea, suddenly heard a sound like a yellow warbler next to him, numb to the bone.

This voice is very familiar to Brother Li Luo, and he immediately raised his eyebrows, turned around, and what caught his eyes was the body of the nightshade red clothes, under the slender jade neck, a crisp chest like clotted white jade, half-covered and half-hidden, a pair of long, moist and well-proportioned embroidered legs were half-exposed, and the clothes were extremely hot and bold.

Li Luodi could clearly feel the hostility around him, especially when Long Kui took the initiative to communicate with him, and the hostility was even deeper.

What a goblin! Li Luodi touched his nose helplessly, and then smiled bitterly, "This question is too difficult, even if you observe it closely, you have no clue." ”

Hearing this, the nightshade red lips slightly set off a good-looking arc, noncommittal.

Seeing that Nightshade no longer spoke, Li Luodi didn't know how to find a topic, and he was silent at the moment.

After all, the relationship between the two can only be regarded as average, and Li Luodi and Long Kui have met a few times in total, and by chance, they helped her break a little red, so there is an intersection on this point.

Li Luodi would not be naïve to think that just because of this little favor, people would treat him differently, or have some different feelings.

The people who can achieve the position of the head of the mirror are not good at stubble.

After a long time, Nightshade suddenly broke the silence and said with a smile, "But I always feel that you already have a solution to this problem in your mind!" ”

Hearing this, Li Luodi raised his eyebrows, his mind turned quickly, and then there was no trace, and he smiled bitterly, "Long Sishou also thinks too highly of me!" ”

"If you can write such a bold and uninhibited poem that you are drunk and lying on the battlefield, and you can fight a few people in ancient times, you must be able to catch this kind of question!"

"In poetry, I just stood on the shoulders of giants, lucky, ashamed!"

Seeing Li Luodi's answer like this, Nightshade willow's eyebrows curled slightly, the corners of his mouth rose to a good-looking arc, and he smiled skillfully and charmingly.

"This question, the Holy Lord has given a death order to the civil and military officials, and it must be solved!"

"There is a great reward for solving it, and if you can't solve it, you will suffer a lot of people."

"What's in it for you?" Li Luodi's eyes lit up, the first question was answered by himself and he was given a royal golden pen, the second question Wang Fat Man got the Mirror Moon Knife, and the third question didn't he get a royal yellow coat!

In this way, wouldn't the starting point of his career be very high, which is conducive to accessing the files of his parents' disappearance. Li Luodi thought beautifully.

Seeing Li Luodi's expression, Nightshade smiled lightly, like a faint glow floating from the corner of her mouth.

"You must win this question no matter what, it will definitely be of great benefit to you."

"If it's a little difficult, I can give you some thoughts!"

Well, hearing this, Li Luodi was stunned, and the meaning of this seemed to be that Nightshade also knew the answer to this question. Sure enough, the wisdom of the ancients cannot be underestimated.

Seeing Li Luodi staring directly at him, Nightshade immediately blushed slightly, and a chestnut knocked on the former's forehead.

"What? Just allow you to be talented, not to be the head of the company's wisdom and wisdom? ”

"No, it doesn't mean that!" Brother Li Luodi was in pain, rubbed his forehead, hurriedly waved his hand, and hurriedly denied it.

"Okay, I won't tease you!" Nightshade's red lips lifted slightly, and he smiled, "Since you know the answer, it's best to answer this question as soon as possible. ”

After speaking, only Li Luodi was left with a good-looking back, and Lianbu left.

When Li Luodi saw Long Kui leaving, he immediately rolled his eyes, feeling the soreness on his forehead, what kind of person is this! It hurts so much.

When did Kwai Er intersect with this scholar? The ninth princess, Xiao Shuilan, frowned slightly, watching Nightshade and Li Luodi talking from a distance, seeing that scene The two were quite familiar, and even Nightshade was still in use.

Xiao Shuilan knows that although Nightshade is enthusiastic and bewitching and bold on the outside, it is actually indifferent on the inside, and there is always a faint sense of distance when talking to people.

Did she tell the scholar the answer? Wu Yue'er sat in her place, her willow eyebrows frowned, watching Long Kui and Li Luodi talk and laugh and talk eloquently.

In the center of the field, everyone racked their brains around the sphere, thought hard, and tried all means, but they could not let the thin wire in their hands pass through the hole and reach the designated exit.

Don't say that it is quite difficult to penetrate it even with a thin thread and reach the exit on the other side.

Because the thin wire itself is soft, there are no support points, and it is difficult to stand upright at all.

Everyone thought of a lot of ways, the thin line was straightened by water, the ice cube was frozen hard, and it was possible to get in, but the inside of the sphere was intricate, and there were too many routes, and the stiff thin line could not be wound at all.

Seeing this, many people gave up one after another and returned to their positions in despair.

Even the scholars of the Hanlin Academy and the Minister of Civil and Military Affairs were helpless, their faces were slightly red, their sleeves covered their faces, and they retreated to their positions.

In the blink of an eye, there were only a few people left around the sphere.

"Waste, you group of waste, what's the use of this palace raising you?" When the Seventh Prince saw that several of the dejected doormen came back, they were furious and kicked them several times.

"Seventh brother, pay attention to your words and deeds, my father is watching!"

The person who spoke, about twenty-five or sixteen years old, was dressed in white and had black hair, his clothes and hair were flowing and elegant, not tied or tied, slightly fluttering, with sword eyebrows, high nose and square cheeks, strong and straight, heroic, and faintly had the demeanor of a superior.

This person is the prince of Daming Zhou, Xiao Chenyi.

Hearing this, Xiao Feng's neck shrank, and he quickly glanced in the direction of Emperor Xiao Wudi, not daring to make a mistake, glaring at a few doormen viciously, and roaring in a low voice, "Don't get back yet, embarrassed guy!" ”

Several tenants shrank their necks, lowered their heads, and quickly retreated behind Xiao Feng.

Xiao Chen looked at this scene with an indifferent expression, a touch of disdain flashed across the corners of his mouth, and he played with the wine glass in his hand, not knowing what he was thinking.

"It's too difficult, Brother Li, there's no way at all!" Like a defeated rooster, the fat man walked back to his place in despair.

"That thin line is so soft that you can't wear it at all, even if you make it hard, but the lines inside are too complicated to get around."

"There is no solution to this question." Fat Wang shook his head.

"Oh!" Hearing this, Li Luodi sighed and looked at the center of the field.

At this time, a stick of incense was about to burn out, and there were no figures gathered there in the field.

Xixia and his party, except for Wu Yue'er, were all determined, and the smile on their faces couldn't be suppressed.

On the other hand, on the side of Daming Zhou, everyone is depressed, unable to lift their spirits, and looks weak with their heads down, like eggplants that have been beaten by frost.

"Brother Xia, is there really no way?" Seeing that the incense was lit little by little, Huang Wei and Ling Husi looked solemn and looked at Xia Qingfeng with expectant eyes.

Hearing this, Xia Qingfeng shook his head slowly, frowned, and said with a wry smile, "It's useless to redeem Xia!" ”

Seeing this, Huang Wei and Ling Husi both looked lost, and immediately looked at the Hanlin Academy with hopeful eyes.

The Hanlin Courtyard was also like a leaf hit by frost, and they all bowed their heads in contemplation and did not speak.

Li Zhengqing, Zeng Tai and others also looked at each other and were helpless.

Above, Emperor Xiao Wudi's gloomy face was visible to the naked eye, his thin lips were slightly curled because of his anger, and the dragon chair behind him seemed to tremble because of his trembling body, adding a touch of depression and cold atmosphere.

"Zhong Aiqing, can't anyone solve this third question?"

Emperor Xiao Wudi's words were flat, and there was not even the slightest fluctuation, but how could the many old foxes present not hear the monstrous anger behind this, they were all silent, trembling, bowing their heads and not daring to speak.

Seeing this, Li Luodi's expression was bright, and he exhaled a breath of turbidity, it seems that he has to rely on me to turn the tide and turn things around.

Immediately pulled Wang Fatzi over and whispered, "You go to the garden and find me a ....."

"What are you looking for?" Hearing this, Wang Fatzi was stunned for a moment, and he didn't know why.

"This is the key factor in solving the problem!"
