The emperor was not in a hurry to see Lin Shuangshuang, but first greeted the princess and prince of Nanyue Kingdom.

After all, the two of them are nobles of the South Vietnam Kingdom, and the visitors are guests. This is the way to treat guests.

As for Lin Shuangshuang, he is a citizen of the Yu Dynasty and one of his own, so there is no need to be too polite.

The emperor said a few polite words, saying that he wanted them to eat and drink well, not to be formal, and to have a happy New Year tonight.

The Prince of Nanyue stood up, covered his chest with his right hand, and bowed slightly to salute: "Thank you for your hospitality, Your Majesty. The Yu Dynasty is indeed a vast land with rich products and countless delicacies."

The face of the princess of Nanyue Kingdom next to her became more and more unhappy as her brother praised her.

She felt that her brother was giving too much face to Dayu. He was obviously not as good as Nanyue in anything, so he insisted on praising him.

At this time, the queen suddenly asked: "I heard that all South Vietnamese people are good at singing and dancing. I wonder what the prince thinks of our singing and dancing in the Yu Dynasty?"

"The songs and dances of the Yu Dynasty are very beautiful. If you have to compare them, they are different."

"The songs and dances of the Yu Dynasty are more beautiful, while our Nanyue Kingdom is more free and easy. Each has its own merits."

When Xiao Minmin heard her brother praising him again, she tugged on her brother's sleeve in private.

Xiao Wanyan glanced at her and gave her a calm look.

Then, he motioned to his men to take out a jeweled box, indicating that he wanted to give Emperor Yu a New Year's gift.

"This object is called the Night Pearl. It is a fallen star from the sky. It can bring good luck to people. I would like to present it to His Majesty the noble Emperor of the Dayu Dynasty."

The emperor looked at the luminous pearl the size of an egg in the box, and his face was filled with joy: "Send it up for a look."

The eunuch next to the emperor checked it and made sure it was safe before handing it over.

"Well, it's indeed a good thing."

At this time, Xiao Wanyan spoke again: "Your Majesty, this is not an ordinary luminous pearl."

"What is the difference?"

"The emperor can put the beads close to the light and he will notice the difference."

After receiving the emperor's signal, Eunuch Li held the beads close to the candlelight, and the candlelight clearly illuminated the structure inside through the beads.

The inside of the bead is not solid, but there are many winding holes crisscrossing it like a maze. Under the reflection of the light, the light is as beautiful as starlight.

Everyone was praising the bead for its beauty, and Xiao Wanyan spoke again: "The strange thing about your emperor's bead is not just that it looks good, but that it is very interesting."

"interesting?"

"If you look carefully, you can see that there are also two pinhole-sized holes at the bottom and top of the bead."

"The former owner of this luminous pearl told Xiao Wang that there is a rumor about this pearl. It is said that whoever can thread the silk thread through this luminous pearl will bring good luck to his country."

"It is said that the Yu Dynasty was full of talented people, and His Majesty is the True Dragon Emperor and is under the command of Heaven. I believe you must be able to thread the thread through this orb."

"There is only one person in South Vietnam who can thread the thread through this bead. I think your Majesty can do it too."

"His Majesty the Emperor will not be inferior to the people of South Vietnam?"

The emperor frowned. This little prince clearly wanted to make him look embarrassed in public!

How can this hole be realized with its nine twists and turns, and it cannot be threaded through?

But he, the majestic Emperor of the Yu Dynasty, could not refuse, otherwise where would his face be?

"Are you sure the thread can really pass through the beads?"

"Xiao Wang saw it with his own eyes."

The emperor waved: "Bring it over and let me see?"

After watching this for a while, the emperor became more and more confused. It just didn't work, but he couldn't admit in public that he was inferior to the people of South Vietnam.

At this time, Su Changgong suddenly stood up and said, "Your Majesty, let your ministers understand such trivial matters."

"You have so many things to do, and you finally took advantage of the New Year to take a night off, so how can you bother with such fun things."

Zhao Zhanshen glanced at Su Xiang appreciatively and ordered Eunuch Li to hand him the beads.

Among these ministers, Prime Minister Su is the most discerning. Although he is not the most capable, he has the most sacred heart.

Su Changgong looked at the beads, looking left and right. He really couldn't think of any way to thread the silk thread through the ninety-eight-turn beads with his bare hands without damaging the beads.

"Li Xiang, are you here to take a look?"

With that said, Su Changgong handed the Night Pearl to Li Mingsi.

The two are mortal enemies, and if he wants to make a fool of himself, he can't make a fool of himself. It would be best to leave this hot potato to him.

With a dark face, Li Xiang knew that this old guy had no good intentions and he flattered the emperor.

But in turn, this difficult problem was handed over to him. How could he have the time to study these boring things.

Li Mingsi looked at it, and then handed the master over to his sons to look at.

Lin Shuangshuang glanced at Zhuzi and seemed to have some thoughts, but said nothing.

The method is very simple. Some people should be able to imagine that she is so transparent that she will not be in the limelight.

Li Xiang had no choice but to hand it over to other officials for study.

There was constant singing and dancing and delicious food at the banquet. Soon all the officials took the Night Pearl and looked at it, but no one could think of a solution.

The emperor looked at the bead and turned it into his hand again. He was really embarrassed, angry and embarrassed.

But I still have to endure it and not lose my temper.

At this time, Xiao Minmin, who had been sitting nearby and watching the joke, finally couldn't help but laugh out loud.

"Brother, you also said that the people of the Yu Dynasty were smart, but I think they are not as smart as our South Vietnamese people."

"The emperor of the Yu Dynasty and all the civil and military officials could not pass through this bead. It is really ridiculous."

The civil and military officials were angry and helpless at being ridiculed. They were angry because the person was telling the truth, and angry because the other person was a princess and they couldn't do anything to her.

"Minmin must not be rude."

"Your Majesty, my sister is young and ignorant. She has always been outspoken. I hope Your Majesty will not blame her."

The emperor suppressed his anger and glared at the officials. He could only endure this tone. Can't he shout and kill just because someone told the truth?

"Is it true that no one can solve this problem?"

"Is it true that our Yu Dynasty really has no capable people?"

All the officials in the audience heard the anger in the emperor's tone, and they all lowered their heads and did not dare to look directly, for fear of being called out.

Lin Shuangshuang saw this and whispered something in Gu Hanzhou's ear.

In the silent hall, Gu Hanzhou suddenly stood up, attracting everyone's attention.

Wow, this man is so handsome!

This is the first reaction of all women!

Hey, who is he? Can he figure it out?

This is the first reaction of all men!

The emperor also cast an appraising look and asked, "Who are you?"

Gu Hanzhou looked at the emperor, did not kneel or kowtow, and only said two words: "I can!"

Li Mingsi was so frightened that he was sweating. Didn't he say that he wouldn't cause trouble?

Why did the emperor come out to cause trouble when he was most angry, and how would it end soon?

Just when Li Mingsi was about to get up to relieve the siege, Eunuch Li whispered a few words to the emperor, and the emperor seemed to understand.

"Do you really have any idea?"
