Do you know the long song of laughter?

Chapter 126 Sheng Changbai’s reminder
  Seeing everyone frowning and thinking hard, Li An smiled secretly.

This question is actually not difficult, but because there are traps in the question, it is difficult to answer it without jumping out.

When Ang Lee first came into contact with this problem in his previous life, he scratched his head and thought about it for half the night, almost to the point of collapse, before he figured it out.

The title says that each person lives in a hotel with nine pennies, a total of twenty-seven pennies, which actually includes the two pennies hidden by the waiter.

The correct algorithm should be twenty-seven plus three, but the concept was changed when the question was asked. At first glance, it seems that there is nothing wrong with it. When people calculate, they are influenced by their subconscious mind, and they will naturally follow the influence of the question. calculate.

Sheng Changbai frowned and thought for a while, then looked at Li An with a look of surprise in his eyes.

Li An shook his head slightly, and Sheng Changbai nodded with a smile, saying nothing.

Li An was not surprised that Sheng Changbai could react so quickly.

He had thought about this question before he asked it. He knew that with Sheng Changbai's intelligence, even if he could answer it, he would not be able to answer it.

Zhao Xian thought for a while, then looked at Li An and smiled bitterly: "Zi Qian is a great talent. I really can't answer this question. I wonder if you can tell me the answer? Otherwise, I'm afraid I won't be able to sleep tonight."

"Naturally."

Li An secretly laughed in his heart. When most people saw this question in their previous lives, as long as they didn't answer it quickly, they were thinking about it.

The same is true for him, because this question seems too simple, as if one plus one equals something.

When a person encounters a very profound question and knows that he cannot answer it, he will not think much about it.

On the contrary, it is this kind of question that I can obviously solve, but I can't solve it, but I am very confused.

When Li An told the answer, everyone was speechless.

If you say this is a question, it is indeed true. If you say it is not, it seems to make sense.

"Brother Ziqian, you are so shameless. Isn't it embarrassing to ask such a question?" Mo Lan said a little uncertainly.

In the past, the answers to the brain teasers were outrageous, but they were still reasonable. Now, questions like this are simply cheating.

"Haha, I just said that I don't know how to ask questions. This question is just a joke and cannot be taken seriously. It's getting late and I have to go to school tomorrow. How about we go back." Li An said.

"Yes, it's getting late. Your Highness, we will excuse you for now." Qi Heng agreed.

Neither Rulan nor Liu Waner had enough fun and wanted to talk, but one was held back by Zhang Guifen and the other by Minglan. Although he was a little reluctant in his heart, he honestly did not speak.

"Haha, I'm just about to go back, let's go together." Zhao Xian said with a smile.

The group of people left the Daxiangguo Temple and came to the place where the carriage was parked. They exchanged a few words and got on the carriage.

"What's wrong, Uncle Wei?"

After walking for a while, Li An felt the carriage stop and opened the curtain with some confusion.

"Sir, it's the Sheng family's carriage that has stopped and blocked the road," Welin said.

Li An leaned out and saw Sheng Changbai getting off the carriage and walking towards him.

"Zecheng, what's wrong?" Li An said and prepared to get out of the car.

"Don't come down. I'll sit in the carriage and have something to say to you." Sheng Changbai said.

After hearing this, Desheng quickly came out of the carriage and said, "Master Sheng, please!"

Sheng Changbai entered the carriage, sat down, and asked the driver to continue driving.

"Zecheng, what happened?" Li An asked doubtfully.

Sheng Changbai's face was a little solemn and he said: "Zi Qian, you should have realized that meeting Prince Yan is not that simple, right?"

"There were rumors before Bianjing that King Yan had proposed to the British Duke, and Prince Yan should have come for Miss Zhang San." Li An said.

"I thought so at first, but when I thought about it carefully, I found that it was not that simple. His target was not Miss Zhang San, or it was not just Miss Zhang San." Sheng Changbai said.

"Is he here for Yuan Ruo?"

Li An was a little surprised. After thinking about it carefully, he thought it was impossible.

Although the Qi family is prominent, it is more because Princess Pingning was raised in the palace since she was a child and is close to the official family. Putting aside this layer, the Qi family is just like an ordinary Duke's mansion.

Although it is a wealthy family in Bianjing, it is of little value to win over.

The Duke of Qi relied on Princess Pingning to manage the salt affairs, and was not favored by civil servants. Because no one from the two generations of the Qi family served in the army, they did not have much influence in the army.

Sheng Changbai shook his head and said, "It's not Yuan Ruo, it's you."

"I?"

Li An pointed at himself in astonishment and said, "Zecheng, don't be kidding me. Although I have a literary officer, I'm not much different from Bai Shen. I can let Prince Yan come to win over me in person?"

Even though Prince Yan has never appeared in the play, he has a noble status.

Now no one could have expected that Zhao Zongquan would be able to take advantage of it and become emperor.

In the eyes of everyone, one of King Yong and King Yan must be the crown prince.

In terms of probability, both of them account for 50%.

King Yan only has one son. Once he ascends the throne, Zhao Xian will be the prince.

"I'm not kidding you. Think about it for yourself, during the time when Prince Yan was traveling with us, who did he talk to the most," Sheng Changbai said.

"Uh…"

Li An thought about it carefully. Prince Yan had spoken to several of them along the way, but he seemed to have spoken to himself the most.

He didn't even talk to Zhang Guifen and Qi Heng as often as he did.

Because it was just casual chat, not in-depth conversation, and Li An didn't want to have a deep friendship with him, he dealt with it perfunctory every time without paying special attention.

Now after Sheng Changbai's reminder, Li An came back to his senses. Isn't Prince Yan really coming after him?

"Isn't it a bit unbelievable? Actually, I just thought it was a little strange at first and didn't think much about it. After thinking about it carefully, I realized why Prince Yan wanted to win over you." Sheng Changbai said.

Li An was stunned when he heard this, thought about it carefully, and said, "Isn't it because of the four warnings you said?"

He originally plagiarized Zhang Zai's Four Sentences on Hengqu, which were praised and praised by many literati and were called the Four Sentences to Warn the World.

"That's right, your four words of warning have been praised by even the officials. They were also erected at the gate of the Imperial College and were admired by others. They had a great influence among the scholars. King Yan did not have the support of the literati, so he naturally wanted to win over some of the scholars. Someone with a certain reputation." Sheng Changbai said.

Li An fell silent after hearing this. In the original work, the official family finally chose King Yong. The specific reasons were not explained in the play.

However, judging from some arguments in the play, King Yong is mediocre. There are two reasons why he is more capable than King Yan and becomes the crown prince.

One is that King Yong is the elder, the other is that Prince Yong has many heirs, and King Yan has only one son.

The official family itself has no sons, and King Yan only has an only son. If anything happens, he will face the same situation as him in the future.

Based on these factors, the officials chose King Yong.

But Li An has a deeper understanding of this matter during his years in Bianjing.

Things are not as simple and one-sided as the play makes them out to be.

If nothing else, the issue of being older is a bit nonsense.

The official family is an adopted son, and these two are not sons of the official family, no matter how old they are.

As for the issue of heirs, although it has some impact, it is not a very serious issue.

Zhao Xian is now seventeen years old. In ancient times, he was considered an adult and could marry a wife.

It's still several years before Guan Jia's death. By then, Zhao Zong would have been married and had children.

Li An felt that the fundamental reason was that Queen Yan's mother clan belonged to the military, while Queen Yong's mother clan was civil servants. Although their rank was not high, they were more accessible to civil servants.

The most important point is that King Yong is mediocre. For the ministers, they naturally hope that the emperor will be mediocre.

King Yan naturally knew that if he wanted to become the crown prince, he must have the support of civil servants, so it made sense to win over him.
