"Why, Your Majesty?" Lin Wanrong was startled, the sound was like a thunderbolt from the blue sky, which made him breathless for a long time.
"There is no reason, I can't tell, but I just can't." The emperor's face was gloomy, and his gaze was like a ten thousand-pound hammer. The sharp aura was like a blade, which made people fear.
Lin Wanrong was not frightened, and looked at him fearlessly: "Your Majesty, you must be reasonable. The princess is not married, and I am not married. Why can't I go when others can. To tell you the truth, I went to Beijing Come, just to wait until today, even if you cut off my head, I will go too. Farewell!"
For the sake of Qingxuan, he has endured for many days, and when he saw the last juncture, he was thrown into a stick by the old emperor again, how could he not be on fire. Whether he is the emperor or the father-in-law, I don't care about it right now, the wife is the most important thing.
Seeing his decisive expression, the emperor's face was cloudy and uncertain. He was beaten and frightened yesterday, but he just couldn't convince him. The emperor pondered for a while, before he sighed and said: "You come back, I have something to tell you."
Lin Wanrong stopped, and the emperor walked up to him, looked at him and said, "Do you really want to be a son-in-law?"
What kind of words is this, I want to be my wife's husband, why the devil wants to be your son-in-law. Seeing that he didn't speak, the emperor's eyes flashed and he said: "It's true that being a son-in-law is beautiful, but in this world, there are many more people who are more beautiful than a son-in-law. If you don't become a son-in-law, you will have a chance to gain even more in the future." glory."
"Glory? What glory?" Lin Wanrong asked puzzled.
"It's ten or a hundred times more honorable than that son-in-law. As long as you remember what I said to you last night, you will have more than half the chance." The emperor said softly with a serious expression.
Lin Wanrong smiled and said: "Master, you are tempting me, but my own wife, how can I give it to others. How about this. Let's discuss it. You let me be the son-in-law, and then give the glory to me Giving it to me, wouldn’t it kill two birds with one stone, refreshing and beautiful.”
The emperor was also taken aback by what he said, and then laughed loudly: "Good Lin San, you can say such words, the world is shameless, no one can surpass you."
Seeing that the emperor's stinky face finally cleared up, Lin Wanrong let out a sigh of relief, this old man is really hard to serve. "My lord, then I'll go. I'll do what I said just now." He said shyly.
"Hmph, you're thinking beautifully, you have won my daughter, and you still want to—" the emperor snorted and said, "If you become a son-in-law, you will definitely regret it in the future."
"If I don't go now, my wife will belong to someone else, and I will regret it." Over there, Prince Gaoli and Asile had already made preparations, and Lin Wanrong felt anxious and wanted to run away.
"Forget it. Forget it. I'll make an exception for you." The emperor sighed: "You can go to snatch the son-in-law today, but you must not publicize it. In the future, whether you want to be a son-in-law or something else is up to you Choose. I have done my best to you, so please take care of yourself." The emperor walked away without even turning his head.
***************
Lin Wanrong rushed downstairs in a hurry, and saw that the square was full of people, and the crowd was jubilant and lively. It turned out that Princess Nishang had already gone upstairs.
Lin Wanrong felt excited, and hurriedly looked to the top floor, only to see a thick bead curtain hanging on the top floor, and vaguely saw a figure sitting there, whose figure and appearance could not be seen clearly, and he didn't know if it was Qingxuan.
Don't care about him, if you come here, you will be safe, do a good job first, and get a son-in-law. If it's not Qingxuan, anyway, as the old emperor said, if you don't want to be a son-in-law, you can do other things, the way is wide. When he had this thought, he calmed down and looked at Xiulou again.
"Come out, come out, someone has come out!" There was a commotion in the crowd, and the curtain on the top floor was lifted, and a pretty little maid came out, smiling, with two cute dimples on her face, very cute like.
The little palace maid said crisply: "My servant Cuiyun, in honor of Dahua Nishang Princess Yi, hereby announces the rules for today's marriage proposal. Today's marriage proposal, Princess Nishang personally asked four interesting questions. Anyone who meets the requirements, regardless of location, regardless of year Everyone, young or old, can participate in answering the questions. Those who answer the most questions correctly will be summoned by Her Royal Highness, and if the princess likes it, they can be recruited as consorts. Did you hear clearly?"
"Listen clearly." The crowd replied together. Prince Lee Seung-heung of Korea, Xu Changjin, and Han Shanggong rushed together to discuss, and Ashle also held the man who looked like a think tank beside him to whisper to each other. For a moment, the atmosphere was filled with tension.
Both Goryeo and Turks came in groups, gathering the great wisdom of many counselors. In contrast, Lin Wanrong suffered a big loss from his lonely family. Do you want to ask Lao Xu to help me out? He was thinking in his heart, but he saw the little maid said crisply: "Everyone, are you ready, the princess is going to present a question."
Princess Nishang is really impatient, she came as soon as she said it, and everyone's expressions moved when they heard it, and they hurriedly pricked up their ears.
The little maid smiled slightly, and took out a yellow satin envelope, which was sealed with wax, proving that no one had ever opened it. She opened the envelope, and what was inside was a small jade bead, shining brightly and shining in the sun. This jade bead is small in size, and there is a small hole in the middle, but it is not transparent, and I don't know what it is for. [Paradise Kiss Hand Slap]
The little maid said softly: "The first question is called thread piercing. This is a jade bead with nine curved holes picked from the East China Sea. As the name suggests, it has nine folds inside, so even though there are holes, it is impossible to see the opposite side at a glance. The princess said, if anyone can pass the thin silk thread through the nine holes and the jade beads are intact, then he will answer the first question correctly."
I'm sweating, who thought of this problem, it's so difficult. Lin Wanrong was full of confidence at first, but the first question posed by Princess Nishang was so difficult, after much deliberation, it seemed that there was no clue at all. In Goryeo, Li Shiang needless to say, Xu Changjin naturally tried his best to help the prince marry the princess of Tang Dynasty, but when he heard this question, he couldn't help frowning slightly, he couldn't help it for a while. The Turkic envoy Asile discussed with the think tank next to him in a low voice, and said several methods in a row, but they were all rejected one by one.
The little court lady Cuiyun placed the nine-curved jade hole on the jade plate, the hole was facing everyone in the field, the crowd had already discussed it, and everyone was thinking hard, looking for a way to break it.
"Xu Aiqing, do you have a way to solve the problem that Nishang asked?" the emperor asked with a smile while sitting on the dragon chair, and several powerful officials stood beside him.
Xu Wei shook his head and said, "Princess is gifted and intelligent, and the old minister can't think of a way to crack it."
"Su Mubai, what about you?" The emperor asked Su Mubai with a glance. Su Zhuangyuan has been silent for a while since stripping Su Mubai of his status as reception envoy yesterday. Hearing the emperor's question, he bowed and said, "Your Majesty, I haven't thought of a solution for the time being."
The emperor smiled wryly and said: "Nishang, this girl, has never given me a good face since she came back. This time when I was recruiting relatives, I came up with such a difficult problem. If no one can solve it, isn't that deliberately embarrassing me? It also makes Gao Li He Tujue laughed at me for being a big man. Brother Cheng, you have countless capable men and strangers, so find someone to solve this problem."
A stern light flashed in King Cheng's eyes, and he disappeared by bowing his head: "The emperor, my ministers and subordinates are all useless idlers who are not on the stage. If you really want to solve the problem of Princess Nishang, The younger brother is willing to recommend someone."
"Oh, who is it?" the emperor asked with great interest.
"Your Majesty, according to folklore, Lin San, the envoy who received him, is intelligent and clever. He used to hold Buddha with bean sprouts, wash hands in oil pans, and burn copper coins. He is an expert in such skills. If anyone in my Dahua can break it, it must be Lin San." " Cheng Wang said with a smile, and glanced at Su Mubai intentionally or unintentionally. Su Mubai lowered his eyes and remained silent.
"Oh, there is such a thing?" The emperor said with great interest: "Lin San still has this ability, why haven't I heard of it? Xu Aiqing, is this true?"
"Your Majesty, there is indeed such a thing. The little girl Zhiqing once demonstrated the three things the prince listed, proving that the principles of all things are implied in them. This Lin San is smart and knowledgeable. I don't know if he can win by surprise this time." Xu Wei said.
"It's true." The emperor smiled even more intensely, and said softly, "I hope Lin San can give us a surprise."
Lin Wanrong was thinking secretly and frowning, but he didn't know that he had become the target of public criticism. He looked everywhere, but saw a few ants slowly crawling on the ground, and those thin legs suddenly triggered his inspiration.
In the Korean formation, Xu Changjin pondered for a while, and suddenly his eyes flashed, and he hurriedly said a few words to Han Shanggong. Li Zaicheng came up to listen to a few words, and his expression immediately became happy. The three discussed in detail for a while, and finally reached a consensus.
"Yes—" Two voices came out at the same time, one was clear and the other was thick, which woke up everyone who was still in deep thought.
Xu Changjin smiled at Lin Wanrong who also stood up over there: "My lord, do you have a solution?"
Lin Wanrong smiled and said: "Yes, you have it, can I not?"
The little palace maid Cuiyun saw the two voices at the same time, and said, "Is this young lady representing your prince? Then please come up here. Young master, who do you represent?"
Lin Wanrong walked up to the stage and said with a smile: "I don't represent anyone, I only represent myself. Ms. Chang Jin, what method have you come up with, or you should come first."
