Chapter 330 Bring Cotton Thread
The emperor's face turned pale, and Chen Changan responded with anger.
Xiao Zhennan kicked Chen Changan and shook his head to smooth things over: "Your Majesty, Chen Changan is young and hot-tempered. Please forgive him for his rebelliousness."
The emperor forced himself to endure it, waved his hand, and let Chen Changan come closer.
The emperor suppressed his voice and said, "Chen Changan, don't take advantage of the fact that I like you and do whatever you want!"
"If you promise today that you won't be my consort, I will definitely give you something good in the future!"
"If you choose the prince consort, I will look down on you. From now on, get out of here as far as you can!"
"Your Majesty, I am not being reckless."
Chen Changan took a deep breath and said, "I became the Prince Consort. Firstly, it was to maintain the reputation of the Great Chu, and secondly, it proved that I am stronger than the barbarians. Besides, I am the Prince Consort. Haven't you announced it to the world?"
"How about this, you let me be your consort, and then you can give me some benefits."
The emperor was so angry that he laughed. It was a nice thought.
"Chen Changan, you can even make such a shameless request?"
"Shameless? I don't think so."
Chen Changan shook his head and sighed: "Compared to going back on one's word, I think that is even more shameless!"
"you!"
The emperor looked at Chen Changan angrily. Chen Changan was beating around the bush and saying that he was shameless!
"Okay, okay, you don't understand my painstaking efforts, you will regret it later!"
"No matter what, it's a lifetime. I just know that if I don't fight for the prince consort now, I will regret it."
Chen Changan stepped back and clasped his fists towards the emperor: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for making a wise choice!"
The emperor looked at Chen Changan with a dim gaze and sneered slightly.
Afterwards, Xiao Zhennan was appointed as the bride-selecting envoy, and he left the main seat and came to a higher level.
*** walked out gracefully, causing the people to exclaim in surprise.
Her eyebrows were like crescent moons, carefully painted with black ink, with the ends of her eyebrows slightly raised, revealing a sense of majesty.
Her eyes are deep, with light eyeshadow, and her cheeks are lightly powdered, rosy and fair, like peach blossoms blooming in spring.
Her lips were painted with bright vermilion lip balm, and their shape was full and beautiful. When they were slightly opened, it seemed as if she had thousands of words to say.
She was wearing a gorgeous purple robe with exquisite phoenix patterns embroidered on the fabric, and the gold and silver threads sparkled brightly in the sun.
*** said a few words to the bride-selection envoy Xiao Zhennan, who nodded slightly.
"Everyone, *** said that if you want to be her consort, you must answer her questions correctly."
"If you answer incorrectly, you cannot be the consort of the emperor, and it will bring shame to the State of Chu."
"Please look at this first question."
Xiao Zhennan waved his hand gently, and in an instant, palace maids came out gracefully holding three little golden men.
They seem to be made from the same piece of mysterious gold. They are exactly the same in height, size and shape, and are as difficult to distinguish as triplets.
The little golden man has an exquisite shape, and every line is smooth and natural, as if it were a masterpiece carefully carved by a master.
Their faces are lifelike, with a mysterious smile.
Everyone didn't understand what *** meant, so Xiao Zhennan explained: "The weight of these three little golden men is exactly the same. If you don't believe me, you can weigh them on the spot, but it's useless for me to tell you."
"*** said that among the three little golden men, there is one that is the most valuable. Please choose it within one stick of incense."
"Now, start burning incense."
Xiao Zhennan told the palace maid to light a stick of incense, and then wait here quietly.
The envoys and people below couldn't bear it anymore. They leaned forward slightly, staring at the three glittering treasures.
Some people squinted their eyes, trying to see the subtle lines on the surface of the little golden man; others moved left and right, observing the reflection of light on the little golden man from different angles.
"***, can we touch it with our own hands?"
Chiya was a little anxious and asked loudly.
*** raised his hand to indicate that it was okay, and Chi Shi quickly took the little golden man and examined it carefully.
But they have compared them carefully and found that the three little golden men are really exactly the same!
How do we determine who is the most valuable?
When the incense was half burned, the emperor also became interested: "Prince Jing'an, can you see anything?"
Prince Jing'an shook his head repeatedly: "Your Majesty, I am stupid and I can't see it."
"I think Lord Chen is very knowledgeable, maybe he can guess what the *** is thinking."
The emperor glanced at Prince Jing'an and said nothing.
"I thought of it!"
Suddenly, Park Bo-young screamed in the crowd, and everyone looked at her immediately.
She represents Park Chung-hee, so she is naturally qualified to speak.
Park Chung-hee was happy and nodded vigorously at Park Bo-young.
Park Bo-young took a deep breath and walked closer: "***, I think these three little golden men represent courage, wisdom, and love respectively."
"In the Great Chu Kingdom, there are often some beautiful legends. This courage was embodied by a general."
"Whoever possesses this little golden man will gain immense courage and dare to face any difficulties, right?"
Park Bo Young said this and I can't do anything.
Park Bo-young believes that her inference is correct: "The second golden man is called wisdom, which can illuminate the way forward for people!"
"As long as I have the second golden man, any problem I face will be easily solved!"
"The third golden man is named Love. Although courage and wisdom are the basic needs of a country, the ruler must have love and share the joys and sorrows with the people, so as to overcome all challenges!"
"So, I think the third little golden talent is the most valuable!"
Park Bo Young said this with great confidence, and everyone nodded slightly.
Park Bo-young has found another way out by giving each golden man a story, trying to take advantage of the situation.
It wasn't very convincing, but since there was no other way, what she said made sense.
Xiao Zhennan looked back at ***, who shook his head slightly and told a maid to come out.
"The doctor Park from Goguryeo, the princess said you didn't guess correctly, the most valuable one is not the third one."
"If making up stories is a characteristic of your country, then please shut up, because Da Chu emphasizes that everything should be based on reality, not fantasy."
Park Chung-hee was very disappointed and Park Bo-young's face also turned red.
She checked a few Jin people again, shook her head and said, "*** is right, but I was born in Goguryeo, and I don't think what I said is wrong. We both say this, does that prove that this question is wrong?"
*** didn't say anything, Chen Changan shook his head and laughed out loud.
"Doctor Park, your story is very interesting, but it is not the final answer to this question."
Park Baoying turned around and looked at Chen Changan: "Master Chen, do you... know?"
"I don't know either. Let's try."
Chen Changan sighed and said, "Old Ma, get some cotton thread."
Lao Ma was slightly startled. He took out the cotton thread...what for?
