Da Qin: Self-destruction and time travel, I will extend my life for Qin for a thousand years

"Ah this..."

Ying Zheng blushed. He had sworn in front of everyone last night that this matter must be resolved by themselves to demonstrate the strength of the Qin court.

Unexpectedly, Cui Yuanwen came to the door in just one day.

"Your Majesty Zulong."

Liu Bang wiped his cold sweat and gave a suggestion: "We have been thinking about it for a day, but in the end we have achieved nothing. We might as well ask Cui Shenxian directly for his opinion."

"Yes! Yes! I think so too."

"Rather than wasting our efforts here, it's better to let Cui Shenxian take action."

"In the past two days, a lot of government affairs have been accumulated in order to receive the Yueshi envoy. If it continues to be delayed, I'm afraid it will have to be dealt with all night long."

Li Si, Feng Quji and Fusu spoke one after another, all trying to persuade Ying Zheng to stop having such strange fantasies and to just succumb to reality.

'What a bunch of guys are these! '

'Why was I blind in the first place and allowed them to become important ministers of the Qin Dynasty? '

Ying Zheng was paralyzed and cursed in his heart. He really wanted to pick up a sledgehammer and hit these people on the heads!
I spend so much money every year to support you, just to let you sell me like this?

But soon, his anger disappeared, and he could only say helplessly: "The envoy of the Great Yuezhi, the Puwei who was beaten by you, has not fully raised three questions, and has only raised two so far. "

"Respectively..."

If Cui Yuan hadn't asked, there would still be room for maneuver on the matter.

But now that he asked, all he could do was say.

Ying Zheng reluctantly told the story of how he solved the first puzzle but was trapped by the second puzzle.

"Pu Wei supposes that I take ten people to go to a Xiongnu grassland where earthquakes occur frequently to herd a thousand sheep."

"In the first month a man and a hundred sheep died."

"The next month another man and a hundred sheep died."

"By analogy, how many people and sheep will be left on this grassland in half a year?"

As soon as Ying Zheng finished speaking, he couldn't help but look at Cui Yuan expectantly. The same was true for several other people, who all wanted to see what kind of answer Cui Yuan would give.

However, what greeted them was Cui Yuan's hearty "hahaha" laughter!
"Hahaha!"

"I thought it was some incredible problem, but I didn't expect it to be so simple!"

Cui Yuan covered his stomach and smiled from ear to ear: "It seems that the dog is worrying about the mouse. There is no need for me to worry about this kind of problem."

"Don't think about it with your brain, you can get the answer instantly even if you think about it with your toes!"

"This group of Great Yuezhi envoys, don't be too ridiculous! Haha!"

Everyone: "..."

Hey, hey, hey, Cui Shenxian, although your status is very noble, can you not hit people like this?
What is a broken problem?What does it mean to be able to get the answer instantly even if you think about it with your toes?

When you talk like this, it's very embarrassing for those of us who have been thinking about it all night but got nothing!

Ying Zheng, Fu Su and others could only look at the young man with speechless expressions. There was no sound from the palace gate for half a minute.

Cui Yuan looked at everyone with red faces, put his hands on his hips and said, "What's wrong? Haven't you figured it out yet?"

"No way? No way? There are really people who can't figure out the answer!"

Bang!
"Oh!"

"Stop talking to me here. If you have farts, let me go as soon as possible!"

Ying Zheng didn't take it easy. He picked up the jade pendant around his waist and hit the squealing young man's head!
Cui Yuan was in pain. Although he was in excellent physical condition, the pain would not go away.

The vital part was hit by the jade pendant, but it was still very painful, and his eyes were full of resentment.

"Okay, okay, your Majesty, you look like you can't take a joke."

He felt aggrieved. He was just a little bit offended. Why was Brother Zheng so impatient?

Li Si, Fusu and others watched and listened, feeling speechless.

Isn't this a joke?

If someone else were to say what you said, His Majesty would not have smashed him with a jade pendant, but would have just drawn his sword and told him to return to the west where he was.

Even after death, his body would be cut into pieces.

"The answer to this question is actually quite simple."

"But before that, I want to hear your views on this issue."

Cui Yuan asked everyone: "Even if you can't think of it, you should have your own answer in your mind, right?"

"I think the people and sheep ran away. After all, no one can withstand a natural disaster like the earth dragon turning over. There is no human power that can stop it."

"The first month was an accident, and the second month may be a coincidence. But after half a year, there will definitely be no one or sheep left on the grassland."

"Otherwise, there's something wrong with their brains."

Ying Zheng was the first to answer, but there was not much firmness in his expression: "But I don't think this is the real answer."

"In other words, if placed in an ordinary scenario, this is indeed the correct answer."

'But placed on the diplomatic relations between the two countries, this answer is really too small. '

He vaguely sensed something was wrong, but he couldn't put it into words.

After Ying Zheng opened his mouth, Li Si, Feng Quji, Fu Su and others also expressed their opinions.

Some said that the sheep and people were all there, but after half a year, only four people and four sheep were left. Others said that the earthquake was just a coincidence. In fact, there was no earthquake at all.

Almost everyone present has an answer of their own.

Liu Bang, on the other hand, remained silent and frowned.

"Liu San, why don't you speak?"

Cui Yuan seemed to ask, there were too many people here, and most of them didn't know the existence of the portal, so Cui Yuan also called Liu Bang by his pseudonym.

"I just suddenly thought of a strange situation from His Majesty's words just now."

Liu Bang confessed frankly, feeling a little embarrassed: "It may be a bit absurd, please just treat it as a joke."

"If you replace the grassland with a battlefield, replace the earthquake that can come at any time with a war that can happen at any time."

"Then the guards who have received His Majesty's orders will shrink back because they are afraid of the battlefield? Will they abandon the city and run away?"

After Liu Bang finished speaking, he smiled awkwardly.

He also seemed to feel that his hypothesis was too absurd, and that he had completely changed the question raised by Da Yuezhi.

Fusu, Li Si and Feng Quji didn't know what to say after hearing this.

Cui Shenxian asked you to tell me the answer in your mind. Why did you change the question at will?

Moreover, the grassland was changed into a battlefield, and the earthquake was changed into a war. This is really outrageous.Only Ying Zheng was suddenly startled after hearing this. It seemed that some kind of inspiration came into his mind, but it was always separated by a layer of membrane.

It's so close yet so far out of reach.

Cui Yuanxiao watched with interest the completely different reactions of everyone, especially those of Ying Zheng and Liu Bang.

Although he was a firm materialist observer of history before traveling through time, he believed that the creators of history were not princes and generals, but the masses of the people.

However, we have to admit that those great figures recorded in history books do have extraordinary qualities.

Ying Zheng and Liu Bang, as the first and second emperors of China, had top-notch political wisdom even without the knowledge of later generations.

Just from a casual exchange, I guessed most of the truth, and was only one step away from the answer.

I'm afraid even if he doesn't come, the answer will come out after they calm down in half a day.

"Now that everyone has finished speaking, let me announce the answer now."

Cui Yuan withdrew his gaze and immediately asked everyone to come to him: "The correct answer to this question is that there are four people left, but all the sheep are gone."

Li Si was immediately in disbelief: "Why is this? It's understandable that the sheep are gone. After all, earthquakes happen often."

"No matter how restrained and managed the herders are, they can never control the fear of the sheep."

"But why are all the people there? Is it possible that their legs are lame and they can't walk?"

Cui Yuan chuckled and began to use his hands to gesture: "Actually, the principle is very simple, hidden in the hypothesis Liu San just mentioned."

What do you mean?
Everyone was confused again, including Liu Bang himself.

He was just thinking and saying casually, why did Cui Shenxian say that he guessed it right?

Cui Yuan continued to gesture: "First of all, the second question of the Da Yuezhi mission, although it seems to have said a lot, in fact, except for the first sentence at the beginning - suppose that His Majesty sent a team of ten people to come here. A thousand sheep are grazing on a Xiongnu grassland, and all other words are just farts!"

"There are two extremely crucial points in this sentence!"

"The first one is that this ten-man team was sent out by His Majesty."

"The second is that His Majesty ordered them to graze a thousand sheep in the grassland where earthquakes are constantly happening!"

"Just like Liu San said just now, if the grassland is a battlefield and an earthquake is a war, then the Qin army, which has been ordered to guard here, will never be able to retreat."

"From the perspective of His Majesty, from the perspective of Da Qin, there is only one answer to this question from beginning to end!"

"That is, the people sent out by His Majesty will not betray His Majesty's orders no matter what difficulties they go through, what sufferings they suffer, or how many companions they die."

"Sheep are animals without national glory and can flee for fear of natural disasters."

"But my sergeants of Great Qin, as long as His Majesty does not issue an order to retreat, they will not retreat for a day!"

"Unless all ten people die, the flag of Great Qin will fly forever on that grassland!"

"Because this is the blood of Great Qin and the character of Great Qin's army!"

"This question will have many answers in the eyes of different people, but in the eyes of your majesty and ministers, there is only this answer!"

After Cui Yuan finished speaking, the entire palace became silent.

Ying Zheng and others were shocked, their hearts were beating continuously, and Cui Yuan's words made their blood boil.

The blood of the Qin Dynasty, the character of the Qin Army, and obeying the orders of the First Emperor from beginning to end are their responsibilities!
What is an earthquake?What is war?
Even if the earth falls apart, it can't change their footsteps and make them take half a step back!

As long as there is no order from His Majesty, none of the four surviving people will flinch until the last person dies in the earthquake.

With such an answer, not to mention other people, even the two great emperors Ying Zheng and Liu Bang fell into shock and couldn't control themselves for a long time.

This question is the answer, and it can only be the answer!
"No wonder I always felt something was wrong, especially after hearing Liu San's hypothesis, I suddenly felt that the answer was right in front of me!"

"So that's it! That's it!"

Ying Zheng sighed, feeling a little guilty.

As the first emperor of China, he was not as thorough as Cui Yuan, an outsider, and ignored the importance of his orders.

And it was just a little short of it, and he could come up with the final answer without relying on Cui Yuan.

But it’s not bad now, at least I’m one step behind.

"I didn't expect that I happened to be fooled." Liu Bang also came to his senses and was filled with emotion.

He just had a random thought, but he unexpectedly said the answer without any comment. Unfortunately, he didn't even realize it!
"Thank you Cui Neishi (Master) for your teaching!"

"The words you said today are enough to be passed down through the ages!"

Fusu, Li Si, Feng Quji and others saluted to express their gratitude.

Although it was just a simple answer, it gave them an earth-shaking shock.

"Cui Yuan."

Ying Zheng warmly invited: "Don't go back today, even because of these words, we will stay drunk tonight!"

"These are just minor issues, no need to be so polite."

Cui Yuan declined with a smile: "Even if I don't tell you, you will figure it out soon."

"Da Qin still has state affairs to be busy with, and this answer needs to be told to Puwei, so I won't waste your time."

The main reason why he came here was to know the three problems of Dayuezhi and to tease the Dayuezhi envoy.

Now that the problem has been solved, the leader of the Da Yuezhi mission has also been "teased" by him into the sky prison.

There is no other reason to stay here anymore.

Ying Zheng said angrily: "Cui Yuan, what do you mean?"

"That's right! Are you looking down on us?"

"What are the affairs of state? At worst, my disciple will stay up all night to finish them in the next few days!"

"As for Puwei, I want him to stay in the prison and take care of him when I have time!"

"Drink, drink! I have been worrying about these nonsense all day, and I must have a good drink today!"

Li Si, Fusu and others all spoke up and persuaded Cui Yuan to stay and celebrate together.

"Cui Yuan, just obey."

Mo Xue was also making noises, and said with a smile: "And the Ninth Princess is in the palace, so you can talk about life with her tonight!"

Although Wang Daming and Zhong Limei didn't say anything, their eager expressions still revealed their desire to drink.

Obviously, they also want to spend the night in the palace to experience more in life.

"You guys are really...ah~"

Cui Yuan rolled his eyes, but couldn't refuse.

He could only reluctantly enter the palace and drink and chat with everyone. (End of chapter)
