You are asked to marry in place of the tyrant, and you allow the tyrant to send you to marry?
Chapter 49 Self-righteous Volunteering
"I don't agree! This is unfair to us Loulan!
Emperor Daye, you are clearly taking advantage of the situation and deliberately bullying my Loulan!
When we return to Loulan, we will report the truth to the king!"
Wanyan Bixiu didn't know where he got the courage from, but he actually dared to confront Zhu Yunhao head-on in front of everyone.
Zhu Yunhao noticed that he didn't talk much and really underestimated him.
This time, Wanyan Bixiu made a stunning debut.
Zhu Yunhao suddenly began to feel a little scared.
"Oh? Report the truth? ... Does the messenger speak without thinking?
Even if you want to report to the King of Loulan, at least you have to leave Daye alive first, right?"
When Zhu Yunhao said this, he actually felt guilty.
He just wanted to give Wanyan Bixiu a good "reminder".
Upon hearing this, the young man in white immediately realized the seriousness of the situation and couldn't help but panic.
Wanyan Bixiu was originally a very impatient person. If he was allowed to continue to argue with Zhu Yunhao about this issue, it seemed that the three of them would really not be able to leave Daye alive.
Thinking of this, the young man in white quickly stepped forward and pulled him away, quickly unfolding his fan and pretending to be calm:
"Bixiu, you step down first. I also fully agree with the competition rules of Emperor Daye.
As General Wanyan said, the competition was originally just a cultural and martial arts exchange between the two countries, and it did not involve other political issues. "
"We in Loulan have always maintained friendly relations with Daye. This time we came to propose a marriage alliance only to consolidate the relationship between the two countries.
Emperor Daye, am I right?"
The young man in white tried hard to suppress the anger in his heart, and his face unconsciously became gloomy.
If Zhu Yunhao made one more unreasonable request, he might die together with him on the spot.
"Of course. Since Prince Wanyan has agreed to my proposal, let the competition begin now!"
Zhu Yunhao spoke proudly and secretly winked at Eunuch Liu, and soon the two account books were delivered to the scene.
Zhu Yunhao took the account book and walked in front of Wanyan Hongze confidently, as if he had everything under control.
"The topic of this round of competition is arithmetic. Whoever can calculate the account book data accurately within the time of an incense stick will win!"
Zhu Yunhao handed Wanyan Hongze an account book with ill intentions. The corners of his lips curled slightly and he asked in a hypocritical manner:
"General Wanyan, you have no objection to this question, right?"
Wanyan Hongze would not refuse such a simple competition, and he readily agreed immediately:
"I have no objection! In terms of arithmetic, I'm sure no one in the world can beat me, right?"
Wanyan Hongze looked very confident, and his brows were filled with contempt and ridicule for Daye.
As we all know, Wanyan Hongze is a well-known "little god of arithmetic" in Loulan.
No matter what account book he is asked to calculate, he can always get the result ahead of everyone else.
In his opinion, Zhu Yunhao's proposal to compete in arithmetic was simply giving him free points.
"In that case, Queen, I'm going to have to trouble you in this game."
Zhu Yunhao was very satisfied with Wanyan Hongze's reply and quickly handed another account book in his hand to Du Qingwan.
Although Du Qingwan unfortunately lost the competition before, he still believed that Du Qingwan had the ability to defeat Wanyan Hongze.
Who would have thought that as soon as he finished speaking, the Minister of Revenue Li Yi quickly took over the conversation and volunteered:
"Your Majesty! Let me, this old minister, compete with him in this round!
The Queen is a woman who has always stayed in seclusion. I think she has never been exposed to arithmetic.
The Ministry of Revenue has always been managed by an old minister, who is definitely better than the Empress in arithmetic. I am confident that I can win this game!"
Although Li Yi is only in his forties, he has served as the Minister of Revenue for many years.
He still has this bit of confidence.
As we all know, the Ministry of Revenue is in charge of the country's finances, and its daily work is to count the treasury and check the account books.
Now, for Li Yi, comparing arithmetic and checking account books is a piece of cake for both parties.
He didn't want to miss such a great opportunity to quickly gain credit and reward so easily.
In the previous competition, Du Qingwan was the only one who stole the limelight.
No matter what, he had to show Zhu Yunhao his skills this time so that his career could be further advanced.
[You bastard! You really know how to choose the right time to ask for reward!]
I want to see whether your ancient arithmetic is better or my mental arithmetic is better! ]
Du Qingwan didn't want to participate in this competition in the first place, and when she heard Zhu Yunhao call her to fight, she wanted to refuse.
Unexpectedly, Li Yi suddenly took the lead and blocked it for her.
At this moment, although she was unfortunately implicated and humiliated, Du Qingwan was still able to remain open-minded when she thought that she could turn down the competition.
"Your Majesty, I think what Minister Li said makes a lot of sense.
Compared with Minister Li, I am not talented and my arithmetic skills cannot be compared with yours.
Why don't you just agree to Minister Li's decision in this round?"
Zhu Yunhao has always been paranoid, and Du Qingwan was worried that he would not change his mind, so she quickly came to his aid and tried to get Li Yi to fight.
Hearing this, Zhu Yunhao immediately fell into deep thought.
"I think Minister Li is right. It is his turn to take over this round."
"I think so too. After all, Minister Li is in charge of the Ministry of Revenue. His arithmetic must be a hundred times better than Du Qingwan's."
"Of course. Otherwise, how did he become the Minister of Finance?
That was obtained through real talent and knowledge, not something that can be easily obtained by taking shortcuts!"
At this moment, the silent scene began to boil.
Without exception, everyone agreed with Li Yi's point of view.
Zhu Yunhao pondered for a moment, and when he heard that all the civil and military officials unanimously agreed to let Li Yi compete with Wanyan Hongze, he immediately relaxed.
"Since everyone thinks so, let Minister Li represent Daye in the battle!
Eunuch Liu, burn incense! The competition begins now! "
"As you command! Burn incense~"
Soon, the third round of competition officially began.
Wanyan Hongze and Li Yi each received an account book, and they quickly sat down separately and began to calculate the amounts in the account books.
The competition progressed intensely as time passed by, and the atmosphere on the scene unknowingly became inexplicably tense.
Although Li Yi was the Minister of Revenue, he was also very good at arithmetic.
But it seems a bit difficult for him to calculate accurately in such a thick account book within the time of a stick of incense.
I saw a little cold sweat on his forehead, which was crystal clear.
The hand holding the brush was trembling slightly, and seemed to be very nervous.
On the other hand, Wanyan Hongze seemed much calmer and didn't show any sign of nervousness at all.
[I didn’t expect Wanyan Hongze to be such a genius, knowing a little bit about everything.
Seeing how confident he is, he will definitely win.]
Thinking of this, Du Qingwan gently walked to Wanyan Hongze's side, lowered her eyes and carefully examined some of the data he had calculated.
Out of curiosity, she secretly calculated the data in the account book in her mind. When she saw that her data was slightly different from Wanyan Hongze's, she couldn't help but gasp...
