Of course, there was no lack of familiar faces. While Song Xiangsi was strolling around, she saw her old friend, Shangguan Yi.

Thinking of the lesson she had learned last time, Shangguan Yi should have been more obedient this time. She said goodbye lightly and left.

Today was the emperor's home ground, and the foreign envoys were the last to enter. That aura was indeed different from the people of the Central Plains.

Song Xiangsi was actually moved by their heroic display. Perhaps this was what they were born with.

"Your majesty, we didn't just come this time to deliver our tribute, we also brought a gift." An envoy saluted the Emperor in their honor, and next to him was his entourage, with gifts in their hands.

"Oh? "Hand it over and let me have a good look." When the Emperor found out that there were other gifts, he was a little impatient.

Since it was a gift, then it was something that they did not have in the Central Plains. Everyone wanted to see the world, so admiring it here was the most honorable thing.

"Your Majesty, this humble subject has not finished yet. Although they brought gifts, the Emperor has to answer three questions for us before we can give them to the Emperor. This is also a tradition. " The envoy continued.

"Is there such a new way of playing?" "Fine, fine, fine. Then, you can ask three questions." The emperor still had this bit of confidence. Having read so many books of poetry since he was young, it wouldn't be difficult for him to ask questions.

Besides, there were still so many ministers present, including Bai Ruo and Meng Ling Xuan. By then, with so many people, how could the three questions not be answered?

"Alright, then your majesty should listen carefully. "The first question is, although we are divided into different grades, we have one thing that is the same. What is this thing?" The envoy smiled, and the question and answer session began.

This... He hadn't written anything about it in the books either. He had originally thought that he would be asked about some of the things in the books, but never did he expect that the questions were always like this.

The emperor was silent for a moment. He needed time to think it over.

At the side, Song Xiangsi heard the question. In fact, before the envoy could finish his translation, she had already understood the gist of the question.

After all, this foreigner was speaking Korean for some reason. Coincidentally, Song Xiangsi had stayed in Korea for a period of time, so she was able to understand.

She was surprised to find that the Koreans were actually so bold and unrestrained in ancient times. They seemed to have a different temperament compared to today, but there wasn't much of a problem.

"Your Majesty, the Crown Princess told me to give this to you." A father-in-law quickly walked to the emperor's side and handed over the note that was in Song Xiangsi's hand.

Since he said he would ignore the past, he definitely couldn't just treat the emperor as an embarrassment. However, Song Xiangsi had not expected that such a simple question had not yet occurred to the emperor.

"My wife, what was the answer you asked me to pass over?" For people like Meng Ling Xuan who had been kidnapped by their own thoughts, they probably wouldn't have been able to think of anything that was fair to all.

"About this, you'll know in a while. Wait until the announcement by the emperor." But you didn't think of that? Why do I think it's so simple? " In front of Meng Fanxuan, she didn't have any intention of showing off. It was fine if she didn't know, but this was a group of people who didn't.

Looking around, all the ministers had troubled expressions on their faces. None of them dared to raise their heads and look at the emperor. Afraid that if the emperor asked her about it, she wouldn't feel awkward. At this moment, only Song Xiangsi would dare to look around.

"I understand. It's time. The time of each of us is equal every day. It's all twelve hours." When the Emperor received the answer, he pondered for a moment. In the end, he was still a smart person, so he naturally thought of the correct answer.

"Congratulations your majesty, your answers are correct. Then, the next question will be the second one. Ask, why are our border and Central Plains crops different? And the weather will be different? " The envoy's second question was very incisive. Everyone knew that was the case, but no one could explain why.

Once again, the emperor fell into deep thought. With the experience just now, since there was someone helping him, the emperor looked towards Song Xiangsi's location.

Of course Song Xiangsi knew, but how could he explain it in a way that they could understand? They couldn't possibly say something as conceptual as a subtropical monsoon climate, so they wouldn't understand.

Just as he was thinking, Meng Ling Xuan suddenly asked, "My wife, do you know the answer again?" "We only know this kind of phenomenon, but isn't the weather preordained by the heavens?" To the best of Meng Fanxuan's knowledge, many things were arranged by the heavens. They couldn't explain anything at all.

Song Xiangsi rolled her eyes. This was the first time she felt the difference in culture. However, she would still think about the answer to this question.

He really didn't know why the envoy's questions were so crafty. If it wasn't for him, the emperor really wouldn't have been able to see this gift.

At the same time, Song Xiangsi was also very curious. Just what was this present? She would even ask such a question. When the time came, she would definitely have a good look at it.

With that in mind, Song Xiangsi's desire to win came out. She immediately got her father-in-law to hand over the note.

"Because the climate of the Central Plains is relatively moist, you don't have any forest covering your side, and the soil moisture is also insufficient …" The emperor also did not understand some of the things on the note, but because Song Xiangsi wrote it in detail, he only needed to read it in detail.

It was fortunate that he had learned how to write before. Otherwise, he wouldn't be the only one feeling embarrassed at this moment.

"Mm, I didn't expect that I would have so many smart people. The emperor really does have a lot of talents. He's always been helping the emperor with some ideas and suggestions. The third question is, we've all seen the sky, and the clouds sometimes move, so where did they come from? "

The envoy meant that even though the emperor couldn't answer for himself, there were people under his command who could. This meant that the emperor was still very good at using people.

Song Xiangsi smiled when she heard the question. It was that simple. However, for ancient people, it should be very difficult.

How could they possibly know that the cloud was made of water evaporating? Just speak of the water on the ground. That should be enough.

After this round of questions, Song Xiangsi seriously suspected that this envoy came from the same world as him. Otherwise, why would he ask this type of question?

He might be able to go over and have a look later, but if he guessed wrong, it might make him feel rude.

The envoy only knew that someone was helping the emperor, but he didn't know who was always right. If he could, he would like to meet such a person.
