Chapter 89

"Do you have any objections?" Yu Shinan asked.

"No objection!" Cui Xu stood up and said on behalf of the family.

Lin Xuan shook his head and agreed.

Li Shimin took a deep look at Cui Xu. He didn't expect that the aristocratic family attached so much importance to this competition that they even sent their heirs over.

"Six arts of a gentleman, which one are you going to compare first?" Yu Shinan asked.

Lin Xuan said with a smile: "They are the hosts, I am the guest, and the guests do as they please."

"Since you say so, then I won't refuse."

Cui Xu didn't refuse. Although they were sure of winning, if they could choose first, they would definitely have an advantage.

Everyone knows that this competition is troublesome, if losing will deal a big blow to their family's reputation, they must win.

"We choose to compare first." Cui Xu looked at Lin Xuan and said.

Cui Xu chose to count in the first competition because he had a plan.

Lin Xuan competed with them, of course it would not be Lin Xuan who competed with their family alone.

The bet they agreed on was Immortal Drunk. Cheng Chumo and his family had members of Immortal Drunk, so of course they could also participate.

Regardless of Cheng Chumo's family or Lin Xuan's, Cui Xu has investigated, and there is no one who is proficient in arithmetic.

And their aristocratic family has many people who are proficient in arithmetic, even if Lin Xuan and the others find someone, he is sure to win.

Seeing that Lin Xuan didn't refuse, Yu Shinan said to Wang Xiaotong, "Master Wang, since it's a competition, you should be the host. Come up with the questions for them."

Wang Xiaotong said with a smile: "The old man asked a question, do you have any objections?"

Cui Xu shook his head, Wang Xiaotong is a master of calculation, and he is fully qualified to be the one who set the question.

Lin Xuan also had no objection, although he didn't know who Wang Xiaotong was, but Cheng Chumo and the others said he should be very powerful.

For arithmetic, Lin Xuan is very confident about how difficult ancient arithmetic problems can be.

"Which of you will try to count?" Wang Xiaotong asked.

Lin Xuan stood up and said, "I'll come to our side, it doesn't matter if they send anyone at random."

Lin Xuan's words were extremely arrogant, Cui Xu and the others turned blue with anger.

what is this?Do you look down on them?

Seeing Cui Xu's furious look, Lin Xuan said with a smile: "Why, is it possible that you are going to go together? If you want to go together, I can accept it."

"..."

Wang Xiaotong was a little speechless, and the other people present also fell silent.

Lin Xuan's mouth was too poisonous, he completely looked down on Cui Xu and the others, without any cover-up.

"Hahaha, good, good, I want to see how capable you are." Cui Xu laughed back angrily.

After finishing speaking, Cui Xu cupped his hands to Wang Xiaotong and said, "Master Wang, Wang Shuo will compete with him on our side."

Although Lin Xuan said they were all going up, he followed suit, but how could Cui Xu do this, if he did, even if he won, his family would lose face.

They had originally found a master of arithmetic, but seeing that it was Lin Xuan who was going to fight, he didn't intend to let that person go, so he directly asked Wang Xu to compete with Lin Xuan.

Otherwise, if he sent someone in his teens to compete with Lin Xuan, a boy in his teens, it would be dishonorable even if he won.

He let Wang Shuo play, not because he was confused by Lin Xuan, but because he was very confident in Wang Shuo's arithmetic ability.

"Since you are ready, the old man will come up with the questions." Wang Xiaotong said.

After thinking for a while, Wang Xiaotong said, "Han Xin counted the number of soldiers in a team. There are two people in a group of three, three people in a group of five, and four people in a group of seven. How many soldiers should there be at least in this team?"

The others also began to calculate in their hearts when they heard the topic.

Wang Shuo calculated in his heart for a long time, and his face became more and more ugly.

Lin Xuan was delighted, this question has been learned in elementary school for later generations, it is too simple.

"Do you come first or should I come first?" Lin Xuan said with a half-smile.

"I don't believe you came out so soon!" Wang Shuo said.

He had no idea at all, he didn't believe that Lin Xuan could figure it out so quickly.

Lin Xuan said disdainfully: "Such a simple question, do you still need to calculate it?"

Wang Shuoqiang pretended to be calm and said: "Who doesn't know how to speak well."

Lin Xuan calmly said, "If I'm right, does it mean you lost this round?"

When they competed, they didn't say whoever answered correctly first would win. If they didn't make it clear, what if they didn't admit it when he told the answer.

"If you answer first, we will lose." Wang Shuo felt that Lin Xuan must be bluffing.

Lin Xuan gave a disdainful smile, cupped his hands to Wang Xiaotong and said, "Master Wang, there are at least 53 soldiers in this team, I don't know if my answer is right!"

"That's right." Wang Xiaotong looked surprised. He got this question at the beginning, but it took nearly a cup of tea to figure it out. He didn't expect Lin Xuan to figure it out so quickly.

Wang Shuo's face was pale. After Lin Xuan finished speaking, he calculated in his heart and knew that his answer was correct.

He has always been conceited about his ability to count, but he did not expect to lose to Lin Xuan.

Cui Xu's face was very ugly. If he knew that he would not let Wang Shuo go, he underestimated the enemy.

"We admit defeat in this round, and we will compete in riding skills in the next round." Cui Xu said.

With so many people, he couldn't help but deny it. Anyway, there are still five rounds, and he believes that they will definitely win.

"Whatever!" Lin Xuan said indifferently.

Yu Shinan stood up and said, "The old men are not good at riding. There are quite a few generals who are good at riding. Why don't we ask them to ask questions?"

Cui Xu and Lin Xuan nodded.

"Haha, how about letting the old man come up with the questions for the riding competition?" Cheng Yaojin laughed and recommended himself.

"Su Guogong also has a formula for immortal drunkenness, so it's not suitable for the person who proposed the question?" Cui Xu said.

His implication is that you, Cheng Yaojin, are a part of it, and if you write the question, you will definitely favor Lin Xuan.

"You mean this old man can cheat?" Cheng Yaojin looked at Cui Xu with an unkind expression.

"I didn't mean that, but it's better for Mr. Su to avoid suspicion." Cui Xu was not afraid of what Cheng Yaojin would do to him.

"You..." Cheng Yaojin was furious.

"Okay, Zhijie, you really need to avoid suspicion." Li Shimin said.

After Li Shimin finished speaking, he looked at Cui Xu and said, "How about letting me come up with the questions?"

"It would be great if His Majesty could come up with the question."

Cui Xu didn't want Li Shimin to propose the question at all. Given Li Shimin's attitude towards the family, he would definitely favor Lin Xuan, but he couldn't refuse.

"I have a horse named Lion Cong. No one has ever been able to tame it. How about whoever can tame it wins?" Li Shimin said.

Although he wanted to favor Lin Xuan, he couldn't do too much with so many people, and Lin Xuan could even tame a tiger, presumably a strong horse should not be difficult for him.

"Your Majesty, Xiaomin has no objection!" Cui Xu said.

Lin Xuan also expressed no objection when he opened his mouth. Horse training is a sure win for him who has the skills of animal training.

Although he also believes that he can win in the riding competition alone, but it is easy to win, why refuse?
Li Shimin saw that there was no objection from both sides, so he immediately sent someone to the palace to lead the horse.
