Chapter Seventy-Eight Explained

The atmosphere grew heavier and heavier, the sky was overcast like the prelude to a storm, and the clouds were pressed low, making people breathless.

Shen Cangbai and other important ministers felt Emperor Xiao Wudi's fierce gaze more than once, and swept at them.

Immediately, they all lowered their heads, letting the cold sweat wet their clothes.

There is no way, even if they are resourceful and sophisticated, they are still helpless on this topic and have no thoughts.

The so-called death of the monarch and the minister, this banquet brought together half of the elite talents of the Ming Dynasty, and they still couldn't solve this problem, which made them all blush.

Just when the incense was about to burn out, when the faces of the people of Daming Zhou showed shame and despair, Li Luodi walked slowly and came to the center of the banquet.

In an instant, everyone's eyes were all focused on Li Luodi's body, there was curiosity, hope, jealousy, and even worship.

In an instant, there was a burst of whispering, gossiping, and bustling.

"If I remember correctly, this scholar is the genius scholar Li Luodi who just made the ancient conquest of a few people to return to this poem!"

"It's him, and he got the golden pen from the Holy Emperor just now!"

"Could it be that this person knows how thin threads penetrate into the body to reach the designated exit?"

"Eight or nine is not far from ten! Otherwise, I wouldn't be so confident! ”

"I don't think so, I guess it's a dead horse as a live horse doctor, and it's hard to be on the head." There were also opposing voices next to him, and his words were full of envy, jealousy and hatred.

"People dare to go up, why don't you go up? It's just going to talk about it here! There are also people who are not used to seeing the faces of mocking people, and say angrily.

"That is, at this time, it was originally about the face of national honor, and you still have the leisure to talk about cool things." Hearing this, more people joined the camp and scolded angrily at the person who had just mocked.

Seeing that he had become a rat crossing the street, the man retreated in a gloomy manner.

"The hour hasn't passed yet, Xiaosheng Li Luodi is not talented, and he is lucky to know the answer to this question!"

So, want to give it a try. “

Li Luodi turned a deaf ear to all the voices around him, first bowed his hand to Emperor Xiao Wudi, and then smiled at Wu Yue'er.

"The time has not yet come, Li Shusheng can do it!"

Li Zhengqing, a scholar of the Hanlin Academy not far away, interjected. He was really a little panicked, the well-known Hanlin Academy at home and abroad had no clue about this third question, and there was nothing to do.

If the Ming Zhou can't solve it, Emperor Xiao Wu will settle the account after the autumn, at least half of the responsibility of the Hanlin Academy.

The current Li Zhengqing is like a man who is about to drown, clinging to the straw of Li Luodi, treating a dead horse as a live horse doctor, pinning all hopes on this person.

As long as Li Luodi answers correctly and Daming Zhou's face is saved, the punishment for the Hanlin Academy will not be so severe.

Seeing Li Luodi come out, Wu Yue'er raised her eyebrows, her expression moved, and she smiled with her peach cheeks, "The poetry attainments of the magic pen scholar make Yue'er unreachable, and I admire it." ”

"It's not surprising that Yue'er can have the answer to this question, since the time has not yet come, it should be so!"

"Li Shusheng, please!" Wu Yue'er stretched out her slender jade hand, like white jade, and made a gesture of please.

"Thank you, Princess Yue'er!" Brother Li Luodi bowed his hand, and immediately shouted to the nightshade that was smiling and looking at him not far away, "Head Long, can you help me find a jar of honey?" ”

Nightshade, who was watching the play, was suddenly named by Li Luodi, and was slightly stunned, and after a little dazed, the corners of his mouth rose to a good-looking arc, his eyebrows and eyes were crooked, and his smile was like a bewitching mandala blooming, and he said with a smile, "Wait a minute, the slave family will go and get it!" ”

After speaking, he also threw a very bold wink at Li Luodi.

It was this flattering look that made the scholars and Jing Mingji, who regarded Nightshade as a goddess, look unkind, and their vicious eyes seemed to be about to cut Li Luodi with a thousand knives.

Yes, I was put on the goblin again. Li Luodi touched his nose helplessly, and immediately cheered himself up, ignoring the murderous gaze of this group of licking dogs.

Xiao Chen watched this scene, his expression did not change, but his hands under the table were quietly clenched.

Emperor Xiao Wu and a group of civil and military ministers were very curious, what was the use of Li Luodi asking for nightshade to find honey?

On the other hand, there was a discussion about whether to apply honey to a thin thread to make the thread hard so that it could be interspersed. But it's so intricate that it's hard to get around and find the right exit.

Therefore, the eyes of everyone who were originally slightly hopeful have dimmed a lot.

"Brother Xia, why do you say that this Brother Li Luo wants honey?" Huang Wei also frowned, repeatedly deducing countless possibilities in his mind, but he still had no thoughts.

Xia Qingfeng also frowned, and after thinking about it, he still didn't know what medicine was sold in Li Luodi's gourd, so he shook his head lightly and sighed, "I don't know either!" ”

"However, I have an intuition, this Brother Li Luo can definitely solve this problem!"

"Oh!" Seeing that Xia Qingfeng admired Li Luodi so much, Huang Wei and Ling Husi both looked at each other, with a hint of surprise in their expressions.

After a while, Nightshade found a jar of honey and handed it to Brother Li Luodi, when the two of them were wrong, Nightshade's red lips opened lightly, very tempting, and whispered, "Solve it well, solve it right, my sister has a reward!" ”

Hearing this, Li Luodi raised his eyebrows, as if he was used to being so bold as nightshade, and he was too lazy to take care of it at the moment, so he took the honey and walked towards the sphere.

Seeing that Li Luodi ignored him, the corners of Nightshade's mouth lifted slightly, and a touch of fun flashed in his good-looking eyes.

Li Luodi found the small hole designated by Wu Yue'er, and immediately smeared honey on the edge of the hole.

"Hey, how did this honey get on the orbs?" On the side of the Hanlin Academy, a bachelor spoke up.

"I thought he was smearing on a thin line!" On the scholar's side, someone scratched his head and was embarrassed to laugh.

At this moment, the fat man Wang was sweating profusely, and he ran over in a hurry, his hands still covering his chest, as if there were precious treasures inside.

"Brother Li, you let me find something!"

Wang Fatzi was out of breath and out of breath, "It's early autumn now, it's easier to find, so I'll catch more!" ”

Immediately, he took out a jade bottle from his arms and handed it to Li Luodi.

"Good work, Brother Wang!" Li Luodi took the bottle, opened the lid, glanced at the contents of the contents, breathed a sigh of relief, and immediately threw a grateful look at Wang Fatzi.

The conversation between the two also attracted everyone's attention, and they stretched their necks to see what kind of gourd medicine was sold in the bottle.

Li Luodi didn't ink, he sifted the strongest looking one from the bottle, and then carefully wound the thin thread around it.

When Wu Yue'er saw Li Luodi pick out the thing from the bottle, her beautiful eyes suddenly contracted violently, her chest rose and fell slightly, and she couldn't help biting her lip, and her fingers unconsciously rubbed the corners of her clothes.

After frowning slightly, his expression moved, and he didn't know what he thought, his pretty face was slightly red, and his hands tugging at the corners of his clothes naturally relaxed.

Shen Pale looked at this scene indifferently, his wise eyes lit up slightly, and he looked at Li Luodi without a trace.

Zheng Sanbao rubbed his chin and watched this scene with interest.

The current ministers don't seem to be as timid as Fang Cai, as if they had expected this scene, but they just changed people.

"The magic pen scholar took out an ant!"

Several of the Hanlin Academy scholars who were close to each other suddenly exclaimed.

Their voices also made everyone can't help but take a few steps forward, rubbing their eyes vigorously, only to see that the little black thing is an ant.

"What is the purpose of catching ants?" Qinglong scratched his head, still unclear.

Hearing this, Long Kui turned his head slightly, looked at him with the eyes of the second fool, and said indifferently, "I really don't know how you can be as famous as me?" ”

Eh, Qinglong was stunned for a moment, then came to his senses, and stared at Nightshade with angry eyes, "You mean to say I'm stupid!" ”

"You said it yourself, I didn't say it!" Nightshade shrugged his shoulders and wrote lightly.

Then he was too lazy to take care of this well-limbed, simple-minded fool. This Li Luodi really has two brushes, and he didn't tell him the answer, and he didn't even provide a clue, so he found the fastest and most efficient way in a short time.

"It's a pity, it would be nice if I could get into the mirror Mingji!" Nightshade muttered to herself, and then shook her head slightly.

Li Luodi didn't care what the other people in the banquet thought, after wrapping the thin thread around the ant, he found a hole at random, put it in, and then quietly waited for the result.

"This Li Luodi is really quick-witted, and I am not as good as seeing the scriptures!" The moment Li Luodi took out the ant, Xia Qingfeng instantly understood its intentions.

It wasn't until the former tied the thin thread to the ant that he was more sure of his idea. While sighing secretly, I can't help but admire his thoughtfulness and ingenuity.

"This Brother Li Luo is indeed a talent!" Huang Wei's expression condensed slightly, as if he sighed, and nodded.

As for Ling Husi, his face was gloomy, his expression was mixed with jealousy, this Li Luodi was obviously not as good as him, why did he show off here one after another.

Which of the civil and military officials present was not a human spirit, and at the moment when Li Luodi took out the ants, most of them suddenly realized, and what followed was a strong appreciation.

At the last moment when the incense burned out, the black ant finally took a thin line and got into the place with honey at the edge of the designated hole in the sphere, and began to enjoy the honey.

Call!

When Li Luodi saw that the ants had successfully drilled out, the stone in his heart fell to the ground instantly, and he breathed a heavy sigh of relief, and wiped the sweat on his palms without a trace.

Li Luodi knew that this method was fine, but he still beat the drum in his heart, what if this ant was stupid, or broke away from his own territory and came to a strange environment to strike?

Fortunately, there were no accidents.

"Fortunately, I didn't lose my life!" Li Luodi bowed his hand to Emperor Xiao Wu, respectfully.

"Good!"

Emperor Xiao Wu patted the dragon chair lightly, and he was overjoyed, and his joy was all on his face, and anyone could see that Emperor Xiao Wu was in a good mood.

Under the great joy of the dragon's face, it is a reward. This is the truest thought in Li Luodi's heart, and he immediately rubbed his hands with some excitement, pouted his buttocks, and was about to kneel down to thank him.

How do you know that Emperor Xiao Wu didn't play cards according to the routine, and didn't pay attention to Li Luodi, but just smiled at Wu Yue'er and said, "Princess Yue'er, did what you said before count?" ”

"Once the word is spoken, the horse is hard to chase!"

Wu Yue'er's cheeks were red under the veil, her face was shy and her beautiful eyes were slightly lowered.
