Father, I am back to fight!

Chapter 98

"Shut up! As the saying goes, it's impolite not to reciprocate. Beiliang has already offered Chu as a gamble. If Daliang doesn't even dare to gamble a small Hutou Pass, how will the world view us? I declare that I am betting with Daliang!"

Emperor Liang said coldly.

The temptation of Chu State is too great for Emperor Liang. Even if Qin Yu is not there, Emperor Liang will still make a gamble with Beiliang!

"Excellent! You are worthy of being the Liang Emperor. I admire your courage! Come on! Bring up the three things I prepared!"

Hu Yanqing said with a sinister smile.

Afterwards, someone brought up three things, all covered with red cloth. Hu Yanqing walked to the first thing, took off the red cloth, and introduced it.

"Emperor Liang! This first item is called Yu Linglong. It's only the size of a fist, but it has one thousand and one holes. The interior twists and turns nine times, and each hole can be connected to each other!"

"I'll randomly select two holes here. Within three hours, anyone from Daliang can connect the two holes with a thread to win!"

Hu Yanqing said in a deep voice, his eyes full of pride and cunning.

One thousand and one holes mean that there are one thousand and one intersecting passages inside, and none of them are straight lines, but twists and turns!

Even the most skillful woman in Beiliang took three years to thread the silk thread from one end to the other!

The request he made today was that Daliang not only pass the silk thread through, but also connect the two holes he designated. This requirement was simply beyond human power!

Therefore, Hutou Pass in Daliang is already in his pocket!

"Asshole! This thing has so many holes. You said the internal structure is complicated, it's hard to thread the thread through it, and it has to connect to the holes you specified. How is that even possible?"

"Haha! Hu Yanqing, you old thief, is there anyone in Beiliang who can do that?"

The officials pointed at Hu Yanqing and cursed him.

Hu Yanqing pointed at Yu Linglong with a smug look on his face and said in a deep voice, "Everyone, please look! There is a silk thread on this Yu Linglong. It was left by a skilled craftsman from Beiliang!"

"And she only took three hours! If the people of Daliang think three hours is too short, I can give Daliang six hours, or even a month!"

He deliberately said that three years was three hours, just to shut up the people in Daliang, and gave Daliang one month, just to slap the people in Daliang in the face!

"This! There's actually someone in Beiliang who can do this!"

"Since the people of Beiliang can do it, then we should be able to do it too! Let me try it myself!"

An official said in a deep voice.

Then, one person stepped forward, picked up a silk thread and started to pierce the holes, but found that the silk thread was too soft and could not be pierced at all!

"How is that possible! The thread can't get through at all!"

The official was shocked.

"Hu Yanqing! How dare you play tricks on us!"

Everyone shouted angrily in a cold voice.

"Haha! Why can't it pass through? Could it be that the silk thread that our Beiliang's skilled craftsmen threaded through was fake? If Daliang doesn't have any capable people, just admit defeat. Why throw dirty water on Beiliang!"

Hu Yanqing said with a sneer.

"you!"

Everyone gnashed their teeth and then looked at Qin Yu: "Your Highness! This is all your fault. Who can pass through this Yu Linglong? Where can we find a skilled craftsman now?"

"In the previous two competitions, Daliang had already secured Hutou Pass, but it was His Royal Highness the Crown Prince who insisted on the competition. Now, Daliang is about to lose Hutou Pass!"

The officials did not dare to blame Emperor Liang, so they could only vent their anger on Qin Yu!

"Father! Sixth Brother has agreed to this competition. If you dethrone him from the position of Crown Prince, this bet will be void. Please issue your decree!"

Qin Mang stood up and spoke loudly.

"Your Majesty! We second the motion!"

The ministers spoke out one after another.

Shangguan Xiong, seeing the opportunity, immediately stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty! Although His Royal Highness made great contributions in the previous two competitions, Hutou Pass is too important to Daliang. Your Majesty, please put the overall situation first!"

Emperor Liang frowned. The officials in the court would only be so united when faced with the issue of abolishing the crown prince!

If these people use this energy to manage state affairs, benefit the people, and fight against foreign enemies, there will be no worries about Daliang's prosperity!

"Haha! It's just a small jade Linglong! Look how difficult it is for you. You said it would take three hours. This prince can connect the two holes in the time of an incense stick at most!"

Qin Yu said with a sneer.

He doesn't care about the position of crown prince at all!

But these people were so aggressive, and Qin Yu couldn't let them get what they wanted!

Moreover, his uncle Lan Yufeng was the garrison commander at Hutou Pass. If Daliang lost Hutou Pass in this way, Lan Yufeng's military power would most likely be taken away. At that time, the people in the court would become even more unscrupulous in taking action against him!

Therefore, we must not lose this competition!
