Yipin Tang

Chapter 226 Unpredictable Prophet
"Lu Dongzan?"

"Lu Dong Zan!"

Li Er and Empress Changsun looked at each other, and both saw surprise in each other's eyes, and Wang Xiang, who was sitting below, also exclaimed in a low voice.

Seeing Li Er's reaction, Lu Dongzan and the Tubo envoys were a little confused.

"Your Majesty has heard of my name?" Lu Dongzan asked suspiciously. This is the first time he has come to Datang, and he was not well-known in Tubo before. Why did the Emperor of Datang seem to have heard of him? Same name.

Li Er came to his senses, smiled and said, "I just think this name is a bit strange." After speaking, he glanced casually at Wang Xiang who was sitting below.

Is it strange?Aren't all the names of Fanbang people like this?But no one would question Li Er's words because of this.

Changsun Wuji also heard Wang Xiang's exclamation just now, and seeing Li Er's reaction, the old fox immediately sensed something unusual, squinted his eyes and said with a smile, "Zixin knows that Tubo man named Lu Dongzan?"

Wang Xiang shook his head and said, "I don't know, how could I know Tubo people."

"Then why were you so surprised when you heard his name just now?"

"Am I surprised? I just think his name is weird."

……

Li Er responded to the surprise and doubt in his heart, and said to Chao Ludong: "Then tell me how you can solve this problem."

Lu Dongzan smiled and took two steps forward and said, "If you want to pass this silk thread through the Nine Curved Pearl, you only need an ant."

"Ant?"

After hearing Lu Dongzan's words, everyone in the hall was puzzled. What does wearing silk thread have to do with ants?Only Li Er, Empress Changsun and Wang Xiang were moved, and Takatayan also showed a thoughtful look.

"The holes in the Nine-curved Pearl are criss-crossed and meandering. It is not easy to thread the thread yourself, unless someone can walk through these small holes with silk thread at will. Just find an ant of suitable size and tie one end of the silk thread on it. Then put the ant into the hole of the Jiuqu Mingzhu, and apply some honey on the outside of the hole at the other end of the Jiuqu Mingzhu, and the ants will follow the smell of honey to crawl inside the Jiuqu Mingzhu. When the honey hole is drilled, the silk thread naturally passes through the nine-curved pearl."

Lu Dongzan stood at His Royal Highness and talked eloquently, calmly, and he was more elegant than those foreign envoys. His uncle who was an envoy to Tubo was full of surprises in his eyes, as if he had found a rare piece of jade.

"Wonderful! This method is very good!"

"Ants can walk freely through the holes of the nine-curved pearl, and then lure them forward with honey. This young man from Tubo is indeed very talented if he can come up with such a plan."

"I'm afraid it's not inferior to Princess Ruyi from Datang."

Hearing the following discussion, Li Er's heart was even more complicated: If you are so impressed by being able to solve this problem, wouldn't it be the person who can think of these problems...

But the young man named Lu Dongzan in front of him is really good, he is very intelligent, he can deal with it freely, and his temperament is different from that of ordinary people from other countries. He is many times stronger than the prince present here. Li Er nodded and said: "It's great to have such young talents in Tubo."

Lu Dongzan did not like to show off like Bator, and after hearing Li Er's words, he said humbly: "Your Majesty praised me, and I just suddenly thought of such a method, which is much worse than that Princess Ruyi from Datang." He also said this from the heart, after all, he hadn't been able to untangle the series of nine songs.

"I don't know if your Majesty's questions are from that Princess Ruyi?"

Li Er glanced at Wang Xiang when he heard this, and the expression on his face was obviously telling him: Look, it's not that I'm trying to trick you, it's that she's really interested in that girl of yours, and now you've already answered two of the three questions. The question was solved by Tubo, you can figure it out next.

"These questions are indeed related to Princess Ruyi." Li Er said vaguely. Although the questions were not written by Xiao Lolita, they were also asked by Wang Xiang because of her. It doesn't matter if they have anything to do with it. It's nonsense.

It’s just that the meaning is different in other people’s ears. To them, these difficult problems must have come from the talented Princess Ruyi. Now they are more interested in Little Lolita, and the Tubo envoys are even more interested. He thought that if he could help Zanpu marry such a smart and witty Tang princess, why would Tubo not be more powerful.

Thinking of this, the Tubo envoy couldn't wait any longer, and said to Li Er, "Your Majesty, please come up with the last question."

"His Majesty!"

Before Li Er could speak, Wang Xiang couldn't help standing up.

It can be said that it is very disrespectful to interrupt him so suddenly, but Li Er didn't look angry, but looked at him with interest and asked, "What do you want to say, Marquis Jiayuan?"

Seeing Li Er's attitude towards Wang Xiang, the foreign envoys present couldn't guess what kind of holy family this Marquis of Jiayuan received, and secretly wondered if the gift sent to him last time was too light. They all sat at his seat.

Seeing that everyone was looking at him, Wang Xiang coughed dryly and said with a smile: "I see that it's getting late today, and the questions His Majesty asked are not easy, so it's better to wait until tomorrow to ask the last question, so that everyone will have enough time to figure out the solution." If the problem is proposed now, it would be unfair to them if the time for consideration is too short."

Li Zhi didn't know Wang Xiang's true thoughts, seeing that he was thinking for Fanbang, he tugged at the corner of his clothes and said anxiously: "Wang Jiancheng, why are you facing those Fanbang people!"

Seeing Wang Xiang winking at him quietly, Li Er didn't know what he was thinking. He felt guilty, but Li Er also had doubts in his heart, so he nodded after hearing Wang Xiang's words: "What the Marquis of Jiayuan said is also reasonable, and finally One question will be released tomorrow, everyone will drink and watch the show."

Wang Xiang's words sounded really for the consideration of those foreign countries, and the Tubo envoys were also worried that the time was too short for people on their side to come up with a solution to the problem, so they had no objection to Wang Xiang's proposal.

As soon as the court meeting was over, Wang Xiang was called to Lizheng Hall by Li Er.

Li Er and Empress Changsun sat together, assuming they were ready for interrogation at any time.

Wang Xiang felt inexplicably guilty when he saw this posture.

"Tell me, why did you ask me to wait until tomorrow to answer the last question." Li Er sat upright.

"I think this last question needs to be changed."

"Change the question?" Li Er was stunned for a moment, and said with a stern face on purpose: "Didn't you say that no one in Fanbang can solve the question you asked, and now Tubo has solved two questions in a row!"

Wang Xiang blurted out and argued: "You can't blame me. I asked His Majesty earlier if there was an envoy named Lu Dongzan in Tubo, and His Majesty said no."

His eyes lit up when Wang Xiang mentioned that Lu Dong praised Li Er and Empress Changsun.

"Nalu Dongzan is indeed not the envoy of Tubo. He came to Chang'an with his uncle to see and see. I just found out just now, but how do you know that Nalu Dongzan can solve this problem? Certainly...you can tell the prophet ?”
