Chapter 502 Difficulties

Chapter 502

After hearing Shui Hanyue's words, Taozi walked to the envoy and whispered a few words in his ear.

The envoy nodded upon hearing this, indicating that this was a good idea for his master's words.

"Greetings to the Emperor and Empress of Chuyuan. We in Shuiding have heard that Chuyuan is a country of etiquette, and the Empress is both talented and beautiful. She must be well-read. Today, our Shuiding offers a couplet. If the Empress can come up with the second couplet, our Shuiding will present our national treasure, the Phoenix Crown. I wonder if the Empress will accept the challenge?" The envoy of Shuiding stood up and said to the Empress who was sitting above her with a smile.

The queen felt nervous at first, but when the other party said it was a couplet, she felt relieved. You know, the queen must have some ability to be chosen as the queen.

"I am willing to give it a try. Please ask the envoy from Shui Dingguo to set the questions." After Chu Yuanming nodded, the queen looked at the envoy and said with a smile.

"Our first line of the couplet is: 'Ten people are thinking about their country, their families and their country.' Please ask Your Majesty to come up with the second line." Envoy Shui Dingguo thought that this couplet was very appropriate for the occasion.

Her master wanted to let them go, but she felt that the Chu Yuan Kingdom should also show some ability to take away the national treasure of their Shui Ding Kingdom.

After hearing this, the Queen thought for a moment and then said, "Eight Eyes is admirable, admiring the wind, the moon, and Qiuxiang."

Everyone was amazed at the neat antithesis and the matching artistic conception. It had to be said that the Queen's couplet was extremely well-matched.

The envoy from Shui Dingguo had never expected that the queen would actually come up with a pair of matching words. He immediately felt like he had found a kindred spirit. Without a second thought, he asked the second question: "The people remain the same, the country remains the same, so why should there be any distinction between north and south?"

The people of Chu Yuan State, who had originally breathed a sigh of relief, became nervous when they heard this. Taifu Wu also clenched his hands at this time. He was a little surprised that the Queen had matched the previous pair, but this pair was obviously more difficult than the previous one.

The queen was silent for a moment before she smiled and looked at the envoy and said, "In short, in short, they are nothing."

"Lotus stem, lotus root, lotus moss."

The envoy asked another question unwillingly.

Shui Hanyue, who was standing by, also gave the envoy a meaningful look, thinking to herself, why is this never-ending?

Although the envoy felt a little guilty, it was not uncommon for him to encounter such a powerful opponent, and he couldn't stop because he was itching to do it.

In the eyes of Long Yi and Gao Haoyan, this meant that Shui Dingguo was on the same side as them.

The more tricky Shui Dingguo's questions were, the more he slapped Chu Yuanguo in the face.

Unfortunately, they were all disappointed. So far, Chu Yuanguo had not been slapped in the face, but they had been slapped first.

At this time, they were waiting for the queen to be unable to answer so that they could save some face.

"The stamens of hibiscus and peony are fragrant." The queen thought for a while, saw the flowers beside her, and blurted out.

The envoy's eyes were filled with admiration. She bowed respectfully to the Empress and said quickly, "Your Majesty is truly intelligent. You truly deserve the title of Phoenix Crown."

After the envoy finished speaking, he signaled the maid to quickly present the phoenix crown.

Long Yi was secretly annoyed. He originally thought that it would be extremely easy for them to control the Chu Yuan Kingdom, but the reality was the opposite.

So far, they have not gained any advantage over the Chu Yuan Kingdom.

Long Yi gestured to the envoy beside him, saying that those useless things still had to rely on him.

After receiving the letter, the envoy of Guanglin State quickly stood up and said, "I heard that Chuyuan State is full of talented people, and the Queen is a woman who is as capable as any man. Today, our Guanglin State has also brought our Guanglin State's treasure, the golden embroidered robe. As everyone knows, the golden embroidered robe is invulnerable to swords and spears. It is a rare treasure. Today, we will ask a question. If Chuyuan State can answer it, the golden embroidered robe will belong to Chuyuan State. If it cannot answer it, we hope that Chuyuan State will cede Huaining City, Huaiyang City, and Runing City to our Guanglin State. What do you think?" The envoy of Guanglin State said frivolously.

The originally lively atmosphere suddenly became quiet.

This is probably the plan of the six countries, right?

The Guanglin Kingdom dares to dream of having three cities.

From the emperor and empress to the palace maids and eunuchs, everyone in Chu Yuan Kingdom looked at Guang Lin Kingdom with some anger.

"Why, Guanglin Kingdom doesn't dare to gamble?" The envoy looked at Chu Yuanming again and asked with a smile.

Chu Yuanming's face could no longer be described as black.

If they didn't agree to this matter, others would think that Chu Yuanguo was afraid, but if they agreed, who knew what unreasonable demands they would make?

The queen's face didn't look good either.

Chu Yuanming and the Crown Prince looked at the people from Guanglin Kingdom and wished they could throw them out.

It’s a nice idea to want to take away their three cities with just a piece of golden clothes.

"Why, your Chu Yuan country doesn't dare to respond?" The envoy looked at Chu Yuanming with a dark face and said proudly.

Long Yi on the side was also very satisfied that his envoy had made things difficult for the other person.

But three cities are still a bit too few.

"Father, this man has gone too far." Chu Haojue lightly pressed the trigger on his rifle. At this moment, he just wanted to shoot the man to death.

"Second brother, don't be impulsive." Chu Yuanming also wanted to get rid of the person, but not at the Queen's Thousand Years Banquet.

"Your Majesty the Chu Yuan Kingdom, since you dare not respond, then you should offer Huaining City, Huaiyang City, and Runing City to Guanglin Kingdom." The envoy was proud and felt that these three cities were probably a sure thing.

"Who said we dare not respond? However, since you want our three cities, Huaining City, Huaiyang City, and Runing City, isn't it too little for you to offer just one golden robe?" Chu Yuanming gestured to the prince to stand up and said.

Although the prince was a little unsure, this was a matter of reputation for the Chu Yuan Kingdom and he couldn't lose.

"Take out Ruyang and Ruzhou." Long Yi felt that they were sure to win this round.

What if we take away Ruyang and Ruzhou, the most important cities in Guanglin Kingdom?

They can't win this game.

"Then our Guanglin Kingdom will use Ruyang City and Ruzhou as the stakes!" The envoy said quickly after receiving Long Yi's order.

"Yes!" The prince also knew that Chu Yuan Kingdom had no way out now, so he just prayed in his heart that there would be a way to resolve the difficulties posed by their Guanglin Kingdom.

"In that case, I'm going to ask a question." The envoy patted his sleeves proudly, looked at Chu Yuanming, and said, "There are a group of chickens and rabbits in a cage. Counting from the top, there are five heads, and counting from the bottom, there are sixteen legs. How many chickens and rabbits are there in the cage?"

As soon as the envoy finished speaking, the banquet fell silent.

The envoy raised his head proudly. He still hadn't solved the problem yet. He didn't believe that these stupid people from Chu Yuan could solve it.

"Master, do you think Chu Yuanguo can win this game?" Taozi felt that this question was extremely difficult.
