The scribe looked around with a pale face, and asked the third question tremblingly: "There are ten birds parked on the tree. The hunter shot one. How many are left on the tree?"

The whole hall was in an uproar: "Such a simple question has been asked. Is this Dongli country out of its mind?"

"Maybe they just want to give us a city!"

"There are ten birds in the tree. If you shoot one, there will be nine more. You still need to ask such a simple question!"

Yu Wenmin rolled his eyes. This seemed to be a brain teaser, but he had seen the answer!

Sure enough, modern books are high-end when compared to ancient times!

Our ancient people were still pure and kind! Not as many twists and turns as modern people!

Prince Dongli showed a proud look on his face: "I wonder who will submit the answer? You only have three chances to submit the answer to a question, so don't say I bully you!"

The eldest prince's voice could not wait to be heard: "No need to ask, of course there are nine!"

Prince Dongli laughed loudly: "No, your answer is wrong, you still have two chances!"

The eldest prince's face instantly turned red, and he argued loudly: "How could it be wrong? It's obviously ten minus one, and you get nine!"

Prince Dongli chuckled: "Well, you'll know when the correct answer comes out!"

Looking at Yaque's silent hall, Prince Dongli couldn't hide his proud expression. He didn't believe that someone from the Nanfeng Congress could answer such a tricky answer!

Everyone in the hall was thinking deeply. They all felt that the eldest prince's answer was completely correct. Why was it not correct? Could it be that there was something hidden in the middle?

Yuan Wuji coughed lightly and a low voice sounded in the hall: "There is not a single bird on the tree, they all flew away!"

The middle-aged scribe's face turned even paler, and Prince Dongli's face was full of disbelief. How could it be possible, how could anyone answer this question correctly? His eyes were turning desperately, and he was thinking about how to reverse this situation!

"Wrong, wrong, General Wuji's answer is also wrong. There is another bird in the tree. Because it is deaf and blind, it cannot see or hear, so shooting a few birds will not do anything to him. Influence!"

Yuan Wuji smiled coldly: "Your prerequisites did not mention that there is a deaf-blind bird, so your answer is not correct. Besides, did you say that there is only one deaf-blind bird? What if there are five? What about just the deaf and blind people? What if there are other numbers of deaf and blind people?”

Cold sweat kept dripping from Prince Dongli's forehead, and he finally couldn't bear Yuan Wuji's aggressive approach: "Since everyone has a dispute about this question, let's consider it a draw and let's move on to the next question!"

"I have long heard that the Nanfeng Kingdom has many talented people and outstanding literary talents. Today I will present an upper couplet. If the Nanfeng Kingdom plays the second couplet, I will be considered a loser. What I said before is completely true!"

The middle-aged scribe calmed his mind: "Please listen to the first couplet: Wangjiang Tower, Wangjiang Flow, Wangjiang Tower Wangjiang Flow, Jiang Tower Eternal, River Flow Eternal." The whole hall was silent for an instant, and the courtiers couldn't help but secretly exclaim. , It’s so right, it will be eternal, this couplet is simply wonderful!

Prince Dongli was so proud that he couldn't suppress the smile on his face. Yuan Wuji's voice slowly sounded: "Everyone can think about it slowly. We have won three out of five games. Our Nanfeng Kingdom has already won two games. As long as we win one more We have already won the battle!"

Prince Dongli's face fell instantly. This Yuan Wuji is really annoying!

Yu Wenmin couldn't bear to see her husband being bullied. Just as he was about to speak, Princess Tianyin next to Prince Donglu said angrily: "After five fights and three wins, you have lost two and drawn one. It is almost considered a defeat." Ding, I don’t know what you are proud of!”

When everyone thinks about it, this seems to be the reason. This means they have won two games and drawn one. Even if Nanfeng loses the next two games, it will still be a draw. It is just for fun, and there will be no shame in losing!

In an instant, everyone's mentality stabilized. Even if they lose the remaining two games, it will still be a draw!

Emperor Nanfeng didn't think so. What he thought about was Ying. He must win this bet. Even if Emperor Dongli regrets and refuses to acknowledge the bet made by this prince, he will still bite a piece of meat from Dongli Kingdom!

Looking at the civil and military ministers in the court, Emperor Nanfeng gritted his teeth and said: "My dear friends, if anyone can match this couplet, I will grant him a condition. Of course, it will not harm nature or harm the Nanfeng Kingdom!"

Yu Wenmin's eyes lit up. She wanted this condition. She had agreed to go back to found the country after this time, so why not just make it right? It would be better to use this condition to ask the emperor to separate them!

Moreover, Phoenix City is larger than their Jiaxing Pass and Loulan Pass combined. If they help him win this territory, it won't be a loss if he gives them Jiaxing Pass and Loulan Pass!

Yuan Wuji listened to his wife's message, nodded, looked at Prince Dongli and smiled: "There are many talents in our country, Nanfeng. If you are not very talented, let me try the water first!"

Prince Dongli was furious when he saw him. It was Yuan Wuji who had made him a draw before, and now it was him again. He wanted to see if General Wuji's literary talents were the same as his military exploits!

Don't think that anyone can get this couplet right. Even a martial artist dares to send it to your door. It's like a toad yawning!

Yuan Wuji looked at him with a half-smile but not a smile: "Prince Dongli, listen carefully: listen to the chicken dike, listen to the chicken crow, listen to the chicken dike and listen to the chicken crow, the chicken dike will last forever, and the chicken will crow forever."

When Prince Dongli heard this couplet, his eyes instantly darkened!

The courtiers in the main hall were talking to each other for a while: "What a wonderful couplet!"

"I didn't expect General Yuan to be so talented!"

"We are really ashamed that none of the generals are talented!"

Emperor Nanfeng laughed loudly: "Prince Dongli, we have won, right? I hope you can fulfill your promise!"

Prince Dongli couldn't help but his vision turned black. He hadn't fought for a hundred years. Phoenix City, he must have gone crazy. Will he be beaten to death by his father when he goes back?

The middle-aged scribe lowered his head and said a few words in his ear. Prince Dongli's eyes suddenly lit up, and he said to Emperor Nanfeng with a low expression: "It's my prince Meng Lang. I surrendered in the original bet, and I, Dongli, am not a loser either." Shameless person!"

"When the birthday banquet is over and I return to China, His Majesty the Emperor will send someone to take over Phoenix City with me!"

Emperor Nanfeng laughed loudly: "Okay, okay, okay, Yuan Wuji, you have made a great contribution this time. Have you thought about what reward you want!"

Yuan Wuji smiled: "Thank you for your kindness, I will let you know when I have thought about it!"

Having gained a city for nothing, Emperor Nanfeng was so happy that he said, "Today is the birthday of the Queen Mother. I would like to thank all the princes and princesses from all over the world for coming all the way to congratulate her on her birthday. I would also like to thank all the ministers' families for their congratulations. Let's drink this cup together!"
