Chapter 7
"Princess Wutina, isn't this title too unreasonable?" Prime Minister Yan Xiliang said, "I have heard of this couplet for a long time. It was written by Caolu Jushi, the late literary master of Wu State, in the past ten years.
How can you still be reasonable when no one can tell you right?"
"Prime Minister Yan, what you said is a bit too much." Wu Tina said with a smile, "The lay people in the thatched cottage are literary masters of our country of Wu, and this couplet is something from our country of Wu. Use it to deal with your great ministers.
Why not?"
"It's too much. No one in Wu State has been able to challenge you for ten years, but you use it as a question..."
"Isn't it? It's extremely difficult to match this couplet neatly. It's obviously bullying..."
"Damn it, we seem to have been plotted..."
Many civil servants had angry expressions on their faces. It was obvious that Wu Guo was playing hooligans, but they could only dare to be angry but dare not speak out.
"how?"
"You, the civil servants of Dafeng, are hesitant?"
"In my opinion, princess, if you are unable to cope with it, you should quickly cede the land and pay compensation, so as not to waste our mutual time."
Utena looked at the courtiers with great arrogance, and the envoys behind her laughed "haha", their eyes full of pride.
Wu Tina seemed to feel that she was sure to receive the big gift. She looked at Guo Tianyi who was so impressive just now and sneered, "Your Highness, King of Han, this couplet has not been presented by anyone in the Wu Kingdom for more than ten years. Do you have a second couplet?"
His voice was full of contempt.
If Guo Tianyi could easily face their Wu Guo orphan for more than ten years, pigs would be able to climb trees.
"Haha." Guo Tianyi smiled faintly and looked at Utena as if she were looking at a clown.
"Your Highness, King of Han, why are you laughing?" Utena's heart thumped. She couldn't figure out how much knowledge the man in front of her had in his belly, and she had a vague feeling of something bad.
But from the bottom of her heart, she felt that Guo Tianyi was just showing off.
As long as all the gravel in the hourglass leaks out, they, the Wu Kingdom, will win.
"I laugh at you as a bunch of frogs in a well. Such a simple couplet means nothing to me!"
"What? Your Highness, the King of Han, don't be afraid that the wind will flash your tongue when you brag!"
"Haha, listen carefully, the second line of my king's poem is: Ninety thousand miles across, the splendid China creates the future, watch the dancing dragons and lions, and sing the song of development from all over the world."
Guo Tianyi was so heroic and graceful that he blurted out the words in less than three breaths.
"this...."
"This, this, this..."
The Wu envoys were all horrified, their eyes widened, and their heads were buzzing.
Utena was also stunned on the spot.
She even rubbed her eyes, fearing that she had seen wrongly.
Those eyes like autumn water were full of shock.
The Jinluan Hall became silent again.
"This is the masterpiece that has troubled your country of Wu for more than ten years?" Guo Tianyi's loud voice broke the silence, "Are you convinced by my king's second line?"
"His Royal Highness the King of Han is truly a great talent!" Taiwei Wang Yuan was extremely excited and cupped his hands towards Emperor Feng Jing and said, "Your Majesty, His Highness the King of Han's two second couplets were extremely domineering and aspiring as a swan. This will definitely become a good story."
"You..." Utena was so angry that her face turned red. Everything today completely exceeded her expectations.
She had calculated everything, but she never expected that Da Fengchao, the most incompetent prince, would turn out to be the most difficult obstacle.
"What am I?"
"Are you too excited to speak because I am so handsome?"
Guo Tianyi looked at the shivering Utena and said with a smile, "I can solve all three questions. I, Dafeng, should be considered the winner, right?"
All civil and military officials in the court showed excitement, and everyone straightened their chests.
With His Highness the King of Han here, their previous depression was gone.
Have the captured eldest prince and master Wang been rescued?
"joke!"
"Your Highness, King of Han, you are too happy too soon."
Wu Tina took a deep breath, quickly calmed down, looked at Guo Tianyi and said, "Today it's just you who have solved the question of our Wu Kingdom. Your Dafeng hasn't solved the question yet. If your Dafeng's question is also solved by this princess,
It’s a draw at most, so how can there be a winner?”
Hearing this, the joyful expressions of the civil and military officials in the Manchu Dynasty quickly calmed down.
Yes, is it too early to be happy now?
"Oh?" Guo Tianyi raised his eyebrows and said disdainfully, "Why do I need to ask three questions? I bet that you can't answer any of the questions!"
joke.
I have the 5,000-year-old Chinese Encyclopedia in my head.
Are these barbarians worthy of fighting against me?
"snort!"
"Your Highness the King of Han, please give me some advice."
Wu Tina couldn't stand Guo Tianyi's arrogant look, so she suppressed her anger and said.
"listen."
"My first couplet is: Mysteries tap into the acupoints and the dragon comes true."
After saying that, Guo Tianyi stood with his hands behind his hands and looked at Wu Tina and others with a smile.
I saw Utena speaking out without even thinking, "Your Highness, King of Han, I will bid farewell to the dawn at the window!"
Hearing this, Guo Tianyi shook his head and said, "Princess Utina, please think carefully, your answer is wrong."
When Utena was confused, the old man beside her said in horror, "Your Highness Princess, this, this, this..., this is the geographical yin and yang couplet, the first couplet is Xuanji's acupoints, Jackie Chan, Chen Chun, and the second couplet must also correspond one to one.
"
"What?"
Wu Tina was shocked, and then she saw that all the civil servants of her Wu Kingdom were frowning.
All civil and military officials in the court were also ecstatic, and they all looked at Guo Tianyi with admiration.
The gravel flies by, and it's almost the end before your eyes.
But all the civil servants of Wu State were sweating profusely, and no one could stand up to him.
Seeing that there was not much gravel left, Guo Tianyi said with a smile, "Princess Wutina, it seems that you are not good at it? You can't even answer this little geographical Yin and Yang couplet. According to me, you are still going back to where you came from.
Obediently hand over my Dafeng soldiers and prince."
"King Han, don't be proud."
"Today you are superior in skill, but we, the Wu Kingdom, lost."
In the end, Utena couldn't think of a suitable second line, so she had to grit her teeth and admit defeat.
As soon as these words came out, the civil and military officials in the whole court were overjoyed.
In the past few years, the State of Wu has developed rapidly, and Dafeng has been suppressed by the State of Wu due to constant internal turmoil.
Wouldn't it be nice to be able to feel proud today?
Saying that, Utina suddenly looked at Emperor Feng Jing, "Your Majesty Emperor Feng, I don't know if you dare to compete with our country Wu again in seven days. If Dafeng wins, we will return the three border cities unconditionally and return them."
Prince Dafeng and the captured soldiers, if you, Dafeng, lose, then everything will continue as usual, and three additional northern provinces will be ceded to us!"
"Your Majesty, this is not possible!"
"We won today's competition, we just need to deal as agreed..."
"Yes, I think it's too risky to do it again after seven days, so why not..."
This condition was even more exaggerated than the previous conditions in the credentials, and the risk was too great, so the Manchu civil servants naturally strongly opposed it.
If the three northern provinces are lost, Dafeng will be like a girl who took off her clothes. How can she protect herself?
"Bastard!" Just as the civil servants were timidly fighting, Guo Tianyi said loudly, "You guys know how to endure humiliation, how can I, Dafeng, be afraid of them?"
"Father, according to my opinion, if the soldiers come, the water will be blocked and the earth will cover it. Let's compete again in seven days!"
"Okay!" Emperor Feng Jing's eyes flashed and he slapped the table and said, "It's accurate!"
"Haha." Seeing this, Princess Utina raised the corners of her mouth slightly, stood up and said, "Okay, let's compete again in seven days."
"Wait!" Guo Tianyi saw this and looked at Wutina's enchanting back with a sneer.
"What?" Utena asked puzzledly, "What else does His Highness have to say?"
"I can't speak of high opinions..." Guo Tianyi looked up and down Wu Tina's proud body and said, "It's up to you, Wu State, to have the final say. You want to eat three provinces of my Dafeng! I, Dafeng, haven't put forward any conditions yet."
"Your Highness, King of Han, it doesn't matter." Wutina didn't know what kind of medicine Guo Tianyi sold in the gourd, so she said confidently, "As long as the request is not too excessive, I can agree to it."
"listen."
