Chapter 221 My dears, do you understand? (5)
"Yes, Father!"

"Wei Chen obeys!"

Hu Jixin glanced at Hu Ke, gave him a look, and sat in his seat without moving.

Hu Ke suppressed the contempt and displeasure in his heart, walked to the center of the cabinet, and ordered his followers to bring up the problem.

Tian Hongen glanced at the chief eunuch, the chief eunuch understood, and signaled the people in the Yingbin Pavilion to come forward to help.

After setting up the question rack, Hu Ke hung the problems one by one on it and showed them to everyone.

"I have long heard that Tianyang is full of talented people. These problems were unintentionally created by our country's great scholars. I just hope that the young talents of Tianyang Kingdom will not see it for themselves."

Hu Ke's tone was haughty and quite proud, not as humble as he said in his words.

Tian Minghao and Tian Mingjun stood up at the same time and came to the question. They looked at the three difficult questions from left to right, feeling a little dazed in their hearts, and their faces were solemn and weird.

All the young and energetic young masters sitting below couldn't wait any longer, Tian Mingyu noticed the expressions of Tian Minghao and the two of them, and secretly smiled inwardly.

I have known these questions for a long time, and I got the answers from Lin Chun's heart, but they are just opportunistic questions that are difficult to be elegant.

Tian Minghao read out the first question: "Which came first, the chicken or the egg?"

"This……"

The ministers and talented people below are speechless. The chicken lays an egg, and the egg produces a chicken. How can there be a difference between before and after...

Tian Mingyu glanced at Liufeng, who made a gesture to the young master of a minister's family.

"The so-called eggs! Eggs! The chicken comes first and the egg comes second. Of course, the chicken comes first and then the egg. This problem that all the illiterate peasants in Tianyang Kingdom know is actually made by Hu Guoda Confucianism. It's really... eh... "

Both Hu Jixin and Hu Ke were a little surprised. At that time, no one in Hu State could answer this question. Unexpectedly, when they came to Tianyang, they would be answered as soon as they asked it.

"This young master's answer is right, Tianyang really has a lot of talents!" Although he couldn't believe it, Hu Ke still admired it with a smile on his face.

Tian Minghao took a look at Tian Mingyu, and saw that he was undeniable, and he felt confident, but there was also a strong fighting spirit in his eyes!

As if to say: "Okay, how dare you hide it from everyone, it seems that this muscle and bone have not been repaired for a long time!"

Tian Mingyu smiled back, didn't care, even with a hint of provocation, "Come on! Just don't backfire!"

The spark between the two was not noticed by others at all, and everyone was waiting for the next question.

Seeing Tian Minghao nodding to himself, Tian Mingjun read aloud: "There are three boxes, one contains only oranges, one contains only dates, and the other contains oranges and dates. The labels on the three boxes are all wrong. You only need to open If you can’t look inside a box, you take out a fruit and look at the fruit, how can you label the three boxes right away?”

"I know this, open the box labeled 'oranges and dates', because the labels are all wrong, so there can only be oranges or dates in the box; if you take out oranges, then the box labeled 'oranges' There must be jujubes in the box, and there must be oranges and dates in the box marked as 'jujube'; date!"

The son of another minister's family said the answer smoothly, but he said it relatively quickly, even Tian Hongen was a little dizzy.

Tian Minghao came to his senses, and hurriedly told everyone again, "First of all, the labels on these three boxes are all wrong, so no matter what box you open with the labels, the fruit you take out must be different from the labels. Similarly, the fruit and logos in the other two boxes are also inconsistent, so..."

"So that's it. This question is really good. It's very interesting and makes people think a lot!" Tian Hongen was very happy. Seeing the unconcealable shock on the faces of Hu Jixin and Hu Ke, he appreciated the question.

"Quickly read the last question, I want to take a good look at the talents of the younger generation of my Tianyang Kingdom!"

The corners of Tian Minghao's eyes twitched slightly, "The following question is more interesting. There is a word that everyone will mispronounce when they see it? What is the word?"

"The word 'wrong'! Such a simple question was created by Hu Guoda Confucianism. It's so fun!"

Several sons of the minister's family answered in unison!

Hu Jixin and Hu Ke's expressions were already stiff, and the smiles froze on their faces, a little embarrassed.

"The talents of the Hu country are really surprising. This time, the father asked the princess to go to Tianyang to get married. There are so many young talents, but the princess is a little dazzled." Hu Jixin changed the topic, and the voice in the cabinet, All of a sudden it becomes nothingness.

Tian Hongen chuckled, and couldn't hide the joy on his face, "It's a shame that the princess is so admired. It's just a coincidence. The purpose of the princess's visit this time has been prepared. Tomorrow afternoon, I will let the prince come forward. , took the right-age children to the Royal Garden on the outskirts of Beijing."

"At that time, the general can go with the princess and choose a son-in-law for the princess who has both talents and virtues.

Hu Jixin obviously did not expect Tian Hongen to be so talkative, and even prepared everything, "Since the Holy Majesty has made arrangements, the Japanese princess and general will be waiting at the posthouse tomorrow."

Unable to express what was in his heart in time, he could not hurt Hu Guo's prestige when he met for the first time, so he opened his mouth to order the son-in-law, Hu Jixin felt unhappy, but still looked up with a smile.

"My lord, it's getting late, the princess and the general have already tasted the meal and wine, why don't someone send the princess and the general back to rest!"

Concubine An's voice always sounded at the most opportune time, which not only allowed Tian Hongen to end the previous topic, but also gave Hu Jixin a step down, the best of both worlds.

"What the imperial concubine said is very true, thank you for the hospitality tonight, the general and the princess will leave first!" Hu Ke stepped forward and bowed, ready to leave.

"Shangshu of the Ministry of War and Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites send the princess and the general back to the post safely! Remember to ensure that all the needs of the princess and the general are perfect, and the princess and the general are not allowed to feel uncomfortable!" Tian Hongen was very angry.

"My minister respectfully abides by the imperial decree, and will not disgrace the mission!"

After Hu Jixin and Hu Ke were sent away, everyone felt relieved.

"Hao'er, Jun'er, I've worked hard for you today. Who are the sons of the Aiqing family who answered the questions just now?" Tian Hongen's joy was beyond words.

"Returning to the father, they are the eldest son Zhou Dian of the Shangshu family of the Ministry of Rites, the second son Zhou Zheng, and the nephew Jiang Ming of the Grand Tutor's family, and Wang Tao of the Wang Yushi family."

"There are rewards!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for the reward!"

The banquet came to a successful conclusion, Tian Hongen took Concubine An to leave first, the ministers naturally did not dare to stay long after the emperor left, and they all brought their family members to say goodbye to Tian Minghao and others, saluted and left.
