You are asked to marry in place of the tyrant, and you allow the tyrant to send you to marry?

Wanyan Hongze did not immediately explain the items of the competition, but instead called on several Loulan guards to move the props.

In just a moment, a complete chessboard was placed in front of everyone.

What is different from a regular chessboard is that although this chess game also looks like a black and white chess game, it has been laid out long ago.

I saw a group of black pieces surrounding a white piece on the chessboard, like three camps, which was really weird.

“This is a chessboard, and the white pieces are surrounded by the black pieces.

The purpose of this competition is to ask Daye to help me break this situation and let the white pieces escape from the control of the black pieces.

This is a deadlock that Loulan has been unable to break for a hundred years. I would like to ask if anyone here can lend us a hand?"

Wanyan Hongze glanced at the civil and military officials who were whispering to each other in the room, with an inexplicable look of pride on his face.

This is a dead end. A hundred years have passed, and no one has been able to break it, including Wanyan Hongze.

[In the first few rounds of competition among the officials of Daye, except for Du Qingwan, no one was able to come out to fight.]

[Now this game is deadlocked, I guess no one can break it, right?]

Thinking of this, Wanyan Hongze was secretly delighted.

He was confident that Du Qingwan would definitely not win this round.

"This is clearly a dead end. How can we break it?"

"That's right. I can't break this situation either. I give up."

"I give up too. This is a dead end, there is no way out!"

All the civil and military officials admitted defeat one after another, just like turtles, too lazy to even use their brains to analyze.

To them, this is something that even a three-year-old child can understand.

The reason why Wanyan Hongze set up this deadlock chessboard was simply to force them to admit defeat.

After all, according to Wanyan Hongze, no one has been able to break through Loulan for a hundred years, so how could Daye be broken?

"My dear ministers, don't you have any solution?

I have always been optimistic about you. You cannot defeat the Queen in a literary fight, and you dare not fight in a physical fight.

Just a dead end chess game can scare you all like this?"

Seeing that his civil and military officials were unable to break the impasse, Zhu Yunhao felt humiliated and his face gradually became gloomy.

His eyes involuntarily fell on Du Qingwan, and the corners of his lips slightly opened:

"Queen, you are always very smart. How can we break this deadlock?"

What Du Qingwan didn't expect was that Zhu Yunhao was still shameless enough to place his last hope on her.

But she didn't want to win the competition, so she didn't care.

"Your Majesty, I am not talented enough. I have been thinking hard for a long time, but I still can't think of any way to break the situation."

Du Qingwan looked at Zhu Yunhao with a fake smile, trying to make herself look less embarrassed.

[This dog emperor is suspicious by nature. I can’t let him get suspicious! Otherwise, I might be banished to the cold palace again.]

[Rather than pinning my hopes of survival on the dog emperor, I might as well cooperate with Wanyan Hongze. At least he can help me thrive in the harem.]

Du Qingwan was determined to admit defeat and had no intention of breaking the deadlock at all.

Wanyan Hongze was a little bit incredulous when he saw this.

"Ms. Du, you...really can't break this situation?"

Before Zhu Yunhao could say anything, Wanyan Hongze couldn't help but test him.

Hearing this, Du Qingwan just chuckled twice and pretended to be embarrassed to respond:

"That... General Wanyan, I am not talented enough to help you. I am willing to admit defeat."

After hearing Du Qingwan admit defeat again in person, Wanyan Hongze became even more confused and at a loss.

His first reaction was that Du Qingwan lost to him on purpose.

On second thought, this is a dead end game that no one has been able to break.

Du Qingwan was only in her twenties and still young, so it was understandable that she could not break the impasse, so she did not continue to test him.

“Even someone as smart as the Queen can’t break this situation, so Daye can only admit defeat.

Prince Wanyan, you win this round. Now it's our turn to ask questions, right?"

After losing the game miserably, Zhu Yunhao felt ashamed and quickly changed the subject.

The young man in white couldn't help but smile when he heard this:

"Of course. Queen Daye, please ask the questions!

Loulan has always been full of talented people, and now is a good time to verify it!"

After the young man in white finished speaking, he looked at the calm and composed Wanyan Hongze with ulterior motives, his face full of the joy of success.

Wanyan Hongze just pursed his lips slightly and looked at Du Qingwan involuntarily.

Du Qingwan was seen leisurely asking a few eunuchs to prepare props for her, and she ignored anyone at all.

In just a few moments, all the props were ready.

“This is a basin of clear water. I will use magic later to allow everyone present to see many different things.

If you, Loulan, can see my flaws, you win this game, how about that? "

Du Qingwan spoke calmly while quietly observing Wanyan Hongze's reaction out of the corner of her eye.

When Du Qingwan caught the hint of suspicion that flashed across his eyes, she couldn't help but smile and secretly rejoiced in her heart.

"The Queen can actually cast magic? It seems like she is not simple at all!"

Upon hearing that Du Qingwan knew magic, Zhu Yunhao immediately became interested.

On second thought, he decided to be nicer to Du Qingwan, otherwise one day she might really use her magic to kill him on purpose.

"Your Majesty praised it immediately! It's just a trivial trick! General Wanyan, shall I begin?"

Du Qingwan smiled awkwardly, her eyes quickly fell on Wanyan Hongze, her face full of provocation.

Of course, she was confident that Wanyan Hongze could see through her flaws.

She deliberately let him win this round.

If Wanyan Hongze still cannot win this game, then we can only assume that she is blind and has overestimated his ability.

"Change!"

When Wanyan Hongze was stunned, Du Qingwan stretched out her jade finger, and a ball-shaped object fell to the ground, and soon smoke rose up.

What’s strange is that the smoke seems to have its own refreshing fragrance, which is even addictive and intoxicating.

"It smells so good! There are roast chicken and barbecued meat..."

"Beauty, don't run! You are so beautiful..."

"Gold! All gold! I'm going to be rich! Gold..."

To Wanyan Hongze's surprise, as soon as the court officials smelled the smoke, they began to have wild fantasies.

Even Zhu Yunhao began to become delirious and felt like he was in ecstasy.

Seeing this, Du Zhirou quickly stepped forward to support him, and couldn't help but complain:

"Your Majesty, what's wrong with you? Your Majesty, please don't..."

Wanyan Hongze had traveled a lot and knew at a glance that this was a trap set up by Du Qingwan, and it was a sure win for him.

Soon, he put out the flames with the basin of water on the ground.

When the smoke cleared, everyone gradually became sober.

"What the hell is going on? Wasn't I holding gold just now? Why?"

"Yes! I was just drinking wine in Yihongyuan! Uh!"

"I wasn't here just now. What's going on? I...I didn't say anything nonsense, did I?"

Everyone was confused and had no idea what kind of magic Du Qingwan had used to make them look so embarrassed.

They all straightened their clothes, put away their expressions of enjoyment, and timidly stepped aside.

"Witchcraft! Du Qingwan must have used some kind of witchcraft!

Otherwise, we would never have become like that!"

"Yes! That must be the case! According to Daye's laws, anyone who uses witchcraft must be executed!"

Zhang Xingguo was the first to realize that Du Qingwan was using witchcraft.

Soon, Li Yi and Zhao Zilei also echoed.

But Wanyan Hongze didn't care. He couldn't help but sneer, looking confident as if he had seen through the situation.
