The System Forces Me to Be the Emperor

Chapter 90: The Method of Wearing a Rope

Xiao Rui said that he didn't want to pay attention to Xiao Feng, his IQ was not in a parallel space at all.

Xia Huang also ignored Xiao Feng's complaint, but tasted Xiao Rui's allusion, and said with a smile: "The frog in the well is very vivid, I like this word very much. I hope everyone in the palace will encourage it with me. King Xian , since King Duan questioned you, and you seem to know it well, why not talk about this Qiankun ball? I am also very curious."

"That's right, Father gave the order, you should talk about it carefully to see if you really know it, or is it just pretending?" Xiao Feng continued to yell.

Xiao Rui smiled at Emperor Xia: "Father, my son obeys."

After finishing speaking, he picked up the Qiankun Ball and felt the weight of the Qiankun Ball slightly pressing on his hand, so he smiled and said: "This thing is made of ivory!"

"How is it possible!" Xiao Feng immediately started the aggressive mode, and immediately said: "Don't think that the color of ivory is ivory carving, and ivory is not round."

Xiao Rui was overjoyed, and immediately sarcastically said: "Prince Duan, before the emperor raised any doubts, you can't wait to step in and take over. This is the golden hall of the Hall of Supreme Harmony. What do you want to do? Ah!"

As soon as Xiao Feng trembled, he immediately raised his head to look at Emperor Xia, and saw Emperor Xia's majestic eyes staring at him, he was so frightened that he immediately knelt down: "I know my mistake."

Emperor Xia waved his hand and said, "Stay flat, you have already reached the age of weak crown, you must learn to restrain your frizzy temper, and let you enter the cabinet to train you well."

"My son understands." Xiao Feng was so frightened that his heart beat violently, thinking that his father was going to take away his job in the cabinet.

Emperor Xia looked at Xiao Rui again, and asked, "King Xian, do you think this universe ball is made of ivory?"

Xiao Rui nodded, and said: "Yes, father, take the ivory of the elephant king, plan it open, and then polish it by hand to make two semicircular hemispheres, and then carve channels inside the hemispheres respectively. Among the nineteen passages, only one is connected, and then the two hemispheres snap together and become a universe ball!"

As soon as these words came out, the civil servants and military generals couldn't believe it.

This naturally formed sphere is actually two parts buckled together, why can't there be any gaps?

Xiao Rui continued: "The reason why the gap cannot be seen is because after the fastening, it has been finely polished to cover up the already tight gap, and the fastening method is often used in carpentry. Mortise and tenon technology!"

Speaking of this, Xiao Rui raised the Qiankun Ball, circled the fingers of the other hand along the sphere, and continued: "The edges of these two hemispheres have a raised tenon on one side and a concave mortise on the other! Therefore, this Qiankun From the beginning of making the ball, the craftsmanship is complicated, which is a test of the craftsmanship of the craftsman."

Xiao Rui put the Qiankun Ball into a brocade box, and Hai Dafu presented it to Emperor Xia.

Emperor Xia picked up the Qiankun Ball and looked at it. He felt that it was completely natural without any gaps. He really didn't expect that the Qiankun Ball was made in this way. No wonder the Kingdom of Zhao regarded it as a top treasure.

Emperor Xia glanced at the ministers and asked, "My dear friends, do you have any objection to what King Xian said?"

The civil and military officials looked at each other, feeling that what Xiao Rui said was miraculous, but they wanted to refute, but they couldn't speak because they didn't know anything about this stuff.

Xiao Rui looked at Xiao Feng and asked: "Fourth brother, if you don't agree with what my brother said, do you have any other comments? My father once said that political affairs need to be brainstormed, and I also want to hear your opinion!"

Xiao Feng was speechless, his face pale.

Xiao Rui snorted softly, then cupped his hands to Emperor Xia, and stepped aside.

Emperor Xia said: "This is a congratulatory gift from Emperor Zhao to me, and he brought a letter and a red string. He said that my Great Xia prides itself on being an outstanding craftsman, so the weapons are hard and the equipment is exquisite. Drill the red string through one hole and out the other?"

Among the seven kingdoms of China, Daxia is famous for its craftsmanship, so its equipment is excellent. Daqi State is famous for its strong soldiers and horses. The Great Yan Kingdom is famous for its strict laws. Da Zhao is famous for Confucianism and prosperous literature. As for the other three countries, they also have their own characteristics, so I won't mention them for now.

Zhao Huang deliberately sent the Qiankun ball to make things difficult for Xia Huang, just to slap the outstanding craftsman of the Great Xia Kingdom in the face.

"Zhao Guo deliberately made things difficult for me, so I took this opportunity to test the princes. Do you have an idea to pass the red rope through the ball?" Emperor Xia asked the nine princes with a smile.

The nine princes looked at each other.

Putting them into the maze would make them dizzy, not to mention threading the rope, the rope would be covered in circles.

Ninety-nine passages are connected to each other, and only one passage is correct. This is countless times more difficult than threading a needle.

"This is too difficult!" Xiao Yan muttered.

"Yes!" Unexpectedly, Xiao Feng was pleasantly surprised, and he had an idea, and hurriedly told: "Father, since this sphere is fastened with tenon and tenon, why don't we pry it open, so that we can see where it is?" It’s the right way to go through the red rope and put it on the mortise and tenon, wouldn’t it be enough?”

After Xiao Feng finished speaking, he looked smug.

The eldest prince Xiao Lie shook his head, and said: "Nonsense, this method is opportunistic, not the style of a great country."

The second prince Xiao Yiheng despised Xiao Feng even more, humming: "Disdain it."

The third prince Xiao Ze shrugged.

Only Xiao Yan's eyes lit up, and when he heard the ridicule from his elder brothers, he gave up this idea.

Seeing being angered by several elder brothers, he shouted: "Then do you have a good solution?"

The three fell silent for a moment.

"Hmph..." Xiao Feng was triumphant.

Xia Huang said: "This method is indeed feasible, but it is opportunistic. Once it is discovered by the Great Zhao Kingdom, it may even lose the state. If our Great Xia Kingdom wants to win, we must naturally win with dignity."

"I'll give you time to think about it. This is the first hurdle. It will test your wisdom and see if you can come out on top. Let's start your thinking."

Afterwards, Emperor Xia said to the civil and military officials: "Give the princes some time, Haibanban, let's go to court first."

In order to demonstrate the emperor's benevolence, His Majesty will give court food in the early and mid-term, one is to let the officials rest, and the other is to alleviate hunger. Morning food is also very simple, a bowl of hot porridge and a plate of pickles.

Haibanban waved his hand, and many court ladies entered the palace with hot porridge. All the officials drank the porridge quietly, not daring to make a sound, finished eating quickly, and then continued to sit upright.

The nine princes were still thinking hard, their brows were furrowed and they couldn't help but think hard.

Xiao Rui looked at the hot white porridge all around, and thought it tasted very good. Although he had eaten in the mansion before entering the palace, he was a martial arts practitioner after all, and his energy consumption was fast, so he was already hungry.

No wonder officials would hide food in their sleeves to avoid the censor and the emperor stealing food. It is indeed easy to get hungry.

Swallowing his saliva, Xiao Rui looked at Emperor Xia.

Emperor Xia was drinking porridge, when he saw Xiao Rui's envious eyes, staring at the white porridge in his hand and couldn't move it away, he didn't look like he was thinking hard.

Yo, this kid, did he already think of a way?

Xia Huang was stunned when he drank the porridge, Xiao Rui's wisdom was beyond his expectation.

Because it was him who thought for a few days before coming up with a solution.
