The System Forces Me to Be the Emperor

Xiao Rui's hungry face made Emperor Xia amused, so he handed the porridge bowl to Hai Dafu, and then gave him a look.

Hai Dafu looked at Xiao Rui understandingly, saw that he had a slanderous face, couldn't help raising his eyebrows, and quickly arranged for the maid to bring nine bowls of hot porridge.

Xiao Rui was overjoyed, and immediately took another sip, feeling his stomach warm and delicious. But the other princes were still thinking hard, how could they have the mind to drink porridge, only Xiao Yan saw that Xiao Rui was eating happily, so he also joined the ranks.

"Third brother, do you want to drink?" Xiao Rui finished his bowl and asked Xiao Ze next to him.

Xiao Ze shook his head.

Xiao Rui picked it up immediately, and said with a smile, "My brother will help you."

This move caused the other princes to stare at him one after another, slandering him in their hearts for being a starving ghost, who was still in the mood to eat.

Is the idea that you can eat it by eating it?

After the eclipse, Emperor Xia asked, "What's the matter? Do the princes have a solution?"

Xiao Ze was more free and easy, and directly reported: "I have little talent and little learning, and I couldn't think of a way to cross the red rope for a while, so I gave up."

Emperor Xia nodded and said, "Very good! If you can't figure it out, admit it voluntarily. If you know it, you know it. If you don't know it, you don't know it. I will give you extra points for this test."

"Huh?" Xiao Ze was overjoyed, it turned out to be a surprise.

"After thinking hard, my son can't figure it out." The fifth prince Xiao Yuan immediately rushed to talk, and also looked at Emperor Xia with burning eyes.

Emperor Xia nodded and asked, "Where are the others?"

Xiao Yuan:? ?

Xiao Rui smiled secretly, this guy wanted to gain points by opportunistically, it's no wonder Emperor Xia could do what he wanted.

Then, the other princes also gave up one after another.

Xiao Rui naturally thought of a way, how could such a piece of cake be hard for him? He is a qualified time traveler who has experienced three years of simulated five-year college entrance examinations. But in line with the attitude that the enemy does not move and I do not move, it is better to keep a low profile.

Who would have thought that Xiao Yan suddenly raised his hand and asked Emperor Xia: "Father, if the minister has meritorious service in the recommendation, can I get extra points?"

Emperor Xia smiled and said: "The recommendation is meritorious, and points will be added naturally! This shows that you have a good eye for knowing people, which is also a kind of wisdom. Today, I will give you three rounds in a row, and the winner of each round will get ten points. He is the person in charge of this meeting with the Great Yan Kingdom. Just now King Wu got three points, King Tang, if you can recommend meritorious service, I will give you five points!"

"..."

All the princes rolled their eyes in unison, how could they still play like this? There must be someone with extraordinary wisdom in the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty. Finding someone who can crack it will give you extra points. Why didn't I think of it just now?

Emperor Xia smiled and asked, "Who are you recommending?"

"My seventh brother, King Xian!" Xiao Yan pointed at Xiao Rui, speaking righteously.

Xiao Rui:? ?

Xiao Rui clenched his fists, really wanted to go up and beat him up, but recommended himself? Anyway, he is a brother of the same camp, so he was cheated like this? Don't even say hello?

Xia Huang laughed and said, "You recommend the Seventh Prince, King Xian? Very good, very good. King Xian, since the King of Tang values ​​you so much, if you don't answer well, then I will punish you!"

Xiao Rui was even more confused.

If I don't answer well, you will punish me? Why not punish King Tang?

Xiao Rui had a look of grief and indignation. It turned out that it was so dangerous to offend Emperor Xia, and he was in danger all the time. He beat you just once, and no one knew that there was at most one Hai Dafu. If you killed him, you would be able to kill him.

Why…

Xiao Rui could only cup his hands, with a mournful look on his face, and said: "I didn't have any idea at first, but I just drank porridge, the heat filled my body, my mind was instantly cleared up, and my thoughts occupied the high ground, and finally my son thought of an unknown Doable or not feasible!"

"Oh, you really want to come out?" Emperor Xia laughed.

Xiao Yan was overwhelmed with surprise and couldn't help but said, "Seventh brother, do you really have an idea?"

Xiao Rui glanced at him, expressing that he didn't want to talk to him, that resolute look was threatening him.

You didn't force me, you professional cheater.

"I came up with a way, I can only try it." Xiao Rui asked weakly.

Emperor Xia said: "Quickly tell me!"

Everyone looked at Xiao Rui. This was the eyes of the most powerful people in the Great Xia Kingdom. Fortunately, he had been through a lot of wind and waves in his previous life, otherwise he would really be frightened.

"Father, my son's idea is to take a thin thread, find a few larger ants, tie the thread to the ant, let the ants enter through a hole, and then plug the hole so that only The filaments can move. Apply sucrose or honey to the hole on the other side, and let the ants find the passage for them." Xiao Rui explained with a smile: "I don't know if Father and the ministers have seen the ant's nest, the passages inside are intricate, There are more than a few dozen, or even hundreds. But ants can easily go to the deepest place, relying on their innate perception. Tempted by food, the ants will find the exit. As long as the silk thread can pass through, and the silk thread is tied with a red rope, it will Mission accomplished."

Emperor Xia nodded secretly, which coincided with his idea, but his son was smarter than himself, and he thought of a solution in such a short time.

"My dear friends, do you think this method is feasible? How many of you?" Emperor Xia scanned the group of officials, and finally fixed his eyes on the eight princes.

"Your Majesty, I believe that this method is feasible." Li Mingchong, the chief assistant of the cabinet, took the lead and admitted this method.

Although the other civil servants didn't want to admit it, they had to admit that it was a way, after all, they couldn't think of any other way.

Among the princes, Xiao Ze was convinced, and said: "Father, the method of the seventh brother is very good, and I will definitely be able to complete it!"

"That's right, my seventh brother is extremely intelligent, this method will definitely work." Xiao Yan was even more excited, and he recommended the seventh brother in a flash of his head, and it really did. Ha, I got bonus points for lying down? Hmm... I can't let Seventh Brother know what I really think!

As for the other princes, they looked annoyed and forgot to use small animals.

Emperor Xia said: "Hai Banban, hand over the Qiankun Ball to an internal official, and order him to do it quickly according to King Xian's law."

"Yes, Your Majesty." Hai Dafu smiled and went to make arrangements.

Emperor Xia continued: "I also think this method is feasible, so this first test of wisdom will add ten points to King Xian, and five points to King Tang."

"Thank you father." Xiao Yan burst into joy.

However, he also understood the fate of offending Xiao Rui, and was afraid that he would not be able to enter the Xian Palace in the future, so he whispered secretly: "Brother Seven, one cent is five thousand taels, and my brother owes you twenty-five thousand taels!"

Xiao Rui blinked his eyes, immediately cupped his hands, and said with great joy: "I thank my father!"

After the ceremony, he blinked at Xiao Yan, and regained his brotherly respect. After all, the two brothers did not have an overnight feud, and if they did, it could be settled with a stack of banknotes.

Emperor Xia ignored their petty tricks, but continued: "The first test is passed, and the second test focuses on your literary talents. As the saying goes, it is not indecent. Since Emperor Zhao sent me a birthday gift, then I also have to pay back. Since the Great State of Zhao is famous for Confucianism and has a long style of writing, the second test is that several princes will each present an absolute and send it to Emperor Zhao to see if he can match it. Do you have confidence?"

As soon as these words came out, Xiao Jing and Xiao Lie looked happy.

It was Xiao Feng whose face changed drastically, and immediately protested: "Father, my son's literary talent is a bit weak, this topic is unfair."

"Shut up, there will be a martial arts competition later, don't you have the upper hand?" Emperor Xia stared.

Xiao Feng scratched his head, hehe said: "Oh, that's right, there's no protest from the minister there. Can I recommend outsiders?"

This guy has learned to behave himself.

Emperor Xia nodded in agreement: "Yes! You can recommend all the officials in the hall to answer for you, and I will give you half a stick of incense time, let's start!"

As soon as the words were finished, Xiao Feng rushed directly into the ranks of civil officials, grabbed a very talented official, and asked him to help make suggestions.

Afterwards, Xiao Yuan, Xiao Ming, and Xiao Yan also asked for help.
