A group of drama queens.
After Yan Jue left, other than Foolish Yuchi, everyone else returned to their original appearances. Li Errui's wise eyes swept across everyone.
The civil officials also had different expressions.
All of them were shrewd people, and Yan Jue would never believe that this was their true appearance. If their expressions were truly so unpredictable, then the Great Tang would be in danger. What kind of good-for-nothings had they raised?
Zhangsun Wuji had it the hardest. He shook his head and smiled bitterly.
"What do you think of this child?" Li Er pursed his lips and smiled. But a great responsibility from the heavens? Trustworthy? Can it be of great use?"
Zhangsun Wuji nodded and said," He's a talent that can be used. However, Your Majesty, this child is slightly arrogant. He has a feeling that he's condescending and a coward. He has a suspicion that he wants to show off but is desperately hiding it. I don't understand. I don't understand.”
They were acting, and Yan Jue was acting as well. Since they wanted to test him, then they would let them test him. Anyway, this was not his true face. If he told them everything, he would be killed. Therefore, other than lies, everyone present was bragging.
Was Li Er that stupid? Using a person whom he knew nothing about? Yan Jue could be said to have fallen from the sky. Although the rain was wide, it did not moisten the grass without roots. Yan Jue had no foundation to find, which made Li Er hesitate.
"What about you, Keming?" asked Li Er.”
Du Ruhui, also known as Keming.
He raised his head and said," Your Majesty, I think this child can be used. If we use him, we don't doubt him and don't use him. Suspicions of unknown origins make us feel even more uneasy. This child is smart. How can he not see that we are putting on an act with him? He is also playing along with us. Just as Brother Fuji said, he is incomprehensible but transparent like water. As a subject, he has no ill intentions in offering the salt production plan. This is a contribution to the country and a blessing to the Great Tang.”
"In just half an afternoon, he really shocked me. He's a good kid with real ability and knowledge. He knows that we're testing him, but he still revealed his knowledge. At the same time, he was also proving to His Majesty that he was a useful talent. As for whether he was useful or not, that was his attitude.”
"Keming is right. This lowly official agrees with Keming.”
Li Liyuan, who was standing at the side, looked at the group of big shots with her round eyes in disbelief. There was a deep sense of fear in her heart. She felt like she was invisible standing here. It was too terrifying.
This group of officials was too terrifying. Her father was too terrifying. So everything that had happened just now was just a disguise. This made Li Erwei's image instantly turn cold in her heart. The originally harmonious literary exchange had turned into a test of people's hearts. There were traps everywhere, and it was mixed with the suspicion of flattery and murder.
She didn't want to stay a moment longer, so she left the mountain and pond silently. If she could, she would rather be married far away now than stay in the palace for a moment longer.
It seemed that these harmonious big shots were a group of wild beasts that ate people without spitting out bones.
History was always shockingly similar. The common problem of every generation of emperors was suspicion. This was not their fault. It was their fault for having so many enemies. Those who had escaped their pursuit would enter their eyes and they would pay attention to them.
Comrade Li Er suspected that Yan Jue's appearance was carefully arranged by some people with ill intentions, so he said that he was testing Yan Jue.
The famous monarch was a ruthless person who had been through the ages. He urged the princes and grandchildren to kill each other. The outstanding ones stood out and the brainless ones were killed. In the end, all his outstanding sons died. In the end, Li Zhi, that little sheep, benefited. Only then did he give the power to a woman, Wu Meiniang.
After listening to Du Ruhui's opinion, Li Er smiled and said,""I can also see that he is a good child. There is no need to test him in the future to avoid hurting others and chilling the hearts of those with lofty aspirations. This matter is not up for discussion. Let's talk about the credibility of the locust plague next year.”
The officials frowned. They would never believe that someone knew about the locust plague in advance. However, Marquis Yan had already vomited blood and looked panicked. This meant that he was not lying. While they doubted Yan Jue's words, they also trusted the change in Yan Jue's state of mind.
Wu Shi shook his head and said," I don't think it's credible. Even if I can deduce it, I can't deduce it so accurately. Even the locust plague was exposed with one word. Such an accurate calculation has never appeared before, let alone a fourteen-year-old youth.”
Zhangsun Wuji also chuckled." I don't think so either. Even if his divination skills are strong, can he compare to Yuan Tiangang and Li Chunfeng?"”
Li Er smiled and said nothing, but he was a little worried. At the last row of stone tables, he said,"Fine, I'll see if the locust plague is real next year. If I order every household to raise chickens, I'm afraid it will cause panic. Besides, my people don't even have enough to eat.”
Li Er didn't feed the chickens, but Yan Jue did. A few days later, when the news of Yan Jue buying chicken sprouts wantonly reached Li Er's ears, Li Er's heart was as complicated as a dye vat.
Li Xiaogong chuckled and said,"Your Majesty, let's study where that one coin went. This lowly official is more interested in that one coin."”
Du Ruhui chuckled." Kid, you think too simply of us. Wouldn't we be able to come out if we did the opposite?" The boss's twenty-five wen, plus the two wen deducted by the waiter and the three wen returned, wasn't it exactly thirty wen? He has led us into the ditch. That one coin doesn't exist at all. This is a question of thinking. It can't be considered mathematics.”
Li Er nodded with a smile." Keming, you're meticulous. I'm not as good as you."”
"Your Majesty, you are too serious. This lowly official is just an onlooker.”
" Ancestors," Fang Xuanling asked," share the problem he gave you. Let the ministers and His Majesty see what kind of problem it is that you have to solve at home."”
Zhangsun Wuji took it out and spread it open. There was a line of words written on the paper.
"There are twenty steps, and each time you can only climb one or two steps. How many ways are there?”
"This…this question is so profound.”
The few of them formed a circle and began to calculate. After calculating for half an hour, they had calculated dozens of methods, but the number was still increasing.
After a while, Zhangsun Wuji was sweating profusely, Li Er was worried, and Yuchi the fool left with a huff. He talked about topics that he didn't understand, which annoyed Yuchi the whole afternoon.
Finally, Li Er said angrily,"Go and find the mathematics master, Huang Zhien."”
After the time for two incense sticks to burn, Huang Zhien shook his head and said,"Your Majesty, I can't calculate it either.”
The few of them looked at each other and felt their faces burning.
It would be strange if he could calculate it. There were more than 10,000 methods.
