Chapter 138: Setting a difficult question for the Great Xia Kingdom, Gu Lingshuang is confident
Gu Xianer's embarrassing incident was just a small episode.
However, this little episode also made everyone present realize that Princess Xiaoyao was not as brainless and useless as the outside world said.
She is a person who hates evil.
If others don't provoke her, she will never take the initiative to provoke others.
If someone provokes her, she will definitely fight back fiercely.
This kind of personality is not only not annoying, but on the contrary attracts the attention of many men present.
They looked at Gu Lingshuang with admiration and surprise.
Rumor has it that the second daughter of the Pingyang Marquis's Mansion is extremely ugly and is the ugliest woman in Shengjing.
However, only by seeing it with your own eyes can you deeply feel how shocking her beauty is.
When she punished Gu Xian'er, her whole body was glowing, and she was so beautiful that people couldn't take their eyes off her.
If they had known that Gu Lingshuang was so beautiful, they would have proposed to her right away, and she would not have fallen into the hands of the disabled King Xiaoyao.
Alas! A good cabbage was eaten by a pig.
People all felt that Gu Lingshuang didn't deserve it.
Feeling the envious, jealous and hateful looks from the people around him, a smile appeared in Xiao Ziming's eyes.
Qiao Jiaojiao saw Xiao Ziming smiling at Gu Lingshuang.
She was going crazy with jealousy.
Why is it that even though they are both time-traveling girls, that bitch Princess Xiaoyao has to suppress her?
Does that bitch think she is so noble?
If you really compare the two of them, it's hard to say who is more noble.
Qiao Jiaojiao looked at Xiao Ziming with obsessed eyes.
Such a beautiful man must not be allowed to fall into the hands of that bitch Gu Lingshuang.
She must conquer the other party with her talent.
Qiao Jiaojiao made up her mind and waited for the opportunity. She had just lost face and she must get back at him.
Li Jingjing beside her looked in the direction of Gu Nanxiao.
There was joy, pain, and deep attachment in her eyes, as if Gu Nanxiao was the man she loved most in her life.
Gu Nanxiao was also looking at her.
Meeting her affectionate eyes, he felt extremely conflicted.
Fifteen years have passed, and Jingjing is still as beautiful as she was back then, with no trace of time on her face.
The woman he had loved deeply for fifteen years turned out to be the princess of Southern Xinjiang.
He really wanted to ask her why she left without saying goodbye.
He believed that with her kindness and her love for him, she must have her own reasons.
Gu Nanxiao and Li Jingjing expressed their love with their eyes.
Gu Lingshuang saw the whole look of this miserable couple.
Gu Lingshuang rolled her eyes fiercely.
She had never thought that her father was a love-brained person.
Gu Lingshuang’s eyes became colder and colder.
To be fair, her heart has always been towards Aunt Zhao.
If Gu Nanxiao is confused and insists on being with Li Jingjing, then she doesn't mind instigating Aunt Zhao and Gu Nanxiao to divorce.
When the time comes, she will bring Aunt Zhao to live with her.
After making plans, Gu Lingshuang calmed down and looked at Li Jingjing and Qiao Jiaojiao, mother and daughter, coldly.
Li Jingjing felt Gu Lingshuang's disgusted gaze and felt even more unbalanced.
This damn bastard has no rules at all.
After the banquet was over, she would make sure Gu Nanxiao punished her severely and made her kneel down to apologize to her and Jiaojiao.
Everyone at the party had his own thoughts.
The atmosphere was turbulent.
The sound of stringed instruments began, followed by music and then dancing.
Everyone enjoyed the singing and dancing and ate delicious food.
After about an incense stick of time, the music stopped.
Seeing that the time was ripe, Qiao Jiaojiao stood up again.
"Your Majesty, we are here mainly to discuss the issue of tribute with the Great Xia Kingdom."
The emperor raised his eyebrows.
coming!
In previous years, they had to pay tribute, but this year they suddenly came to discuss the matter. It seemed that they came prepared and probably did not want to pay tribute anymore.
His Majesty the Emperor looked indifferent.
"I remember that tribute was paid on time in previous years. Why is it so late this year?"
Qiao Jiaojiao had already thought of what he would say. She said with a smile on her face:
"The harvest in Southern Xinjiang is poor this year, and the people are living in dire straits. Your Majesty in Southern Xinjiang and even in Daxia are rich in products. Your Majesty the Emperor of Daxia is also kind and generous. If he knew about our country's difficulties, he would definitely understand our difficulties."
Gu Lingshuang raised her eyebrows, thinking that this was flattering the emperor.
She looked at the emperor and found that his expression was normal and he did not rest secretly because of Qiao Jiaojiao's words.
Gu Lingshuang nodded. As expected of Xiao Zitian, he was quite patient.
He said nothing, waiting for Qiao Jiaojiao's next words.
Qiao Jiaojiao continued, "Because the harvest is not good, we can't make up the tribute, but if we don't pay tribute, His Majesty of Nanjiang will feel bad, so we came here to discuss with His Majesty whether the tribute can be waived. Of course, we are not unconditional. We have prepared three questions. As long as someone in Daxia can answer these three questions, we in Nanjiang will pay tribute even if we are a big country selling iron."
"If Daxia cannot answer, we will stop paying tribute."
"This is fair enough. What do you think, Your Majesty?"
This is her main purpose.
The emperor sneered in his heart.
This is not about not wanting to pay tribute, it is clearly about looking for trouble.
Nanjiang had already made preparations. The three questions they asked must have been extremely difficult to answer, otherwise they would not have been so confident.
If they don't agree, it will show that their Great Xia Kingdom is afraid.
If you agree but fail to answer, you will be extremely embarrassed.
Not only will they be laughed at by the small countries in the southern border, but they will also be sneered at by people in the northern border.
Southern Xinjiang really has a good plan.
All the ministers of the Great Xia Kingdom realized this and glared at Li Jingjing and Qiao Jiaojiao, mother and daughter.
A smile appeared on Gu Lingshuang's lips.
When the man in the black dragon mask came that day, he secretly told her that the people of Southern Xinjiang were going to give three questions to embarrass the Great Xia Kingdom.
The man in the black dragon mask even told her what the three questions were.
As expected of Qingyun Pavilion, they are really good at finding out news from the world.
Such secret information can be found out.
Thinking of those three childish questions, Gu Lingshuang almost laughed out loud.
Any modern person can give the correct answers to these three questions.
But this is ancient times.
It was still difficult for the ancients.
The hall was silent for a while. Qiao Jiaojiao looked at the angry faces of the crowd and felt proud.
You bunch of brainless ancient people, I will show you how powerful I, a time-traveling girl, am.
After this battle, I will definitely become famous and be the best in the world.
Ha ha ha ha--
She looked at the emperor aggressively.
"Your Majesty has been refusing to agree. Is it because you are afraid that no one in Daxia can answer it?"
"presumptuous--"
The emperor suddenly shouted angrily: "We are a great country with many talented people and knowledgeable people. How can we not be able to answer three questions?"
"You can ask questions. If no one in Daxia can answer them, starting this year, the tribute from Southern Xinjiang will be exempted."
"But if our Great Xia Kingdom agrees, not only will Southern Xinjiang pay tribute every year, but the tribute will be twice as much as in previous years. Are you willing?"
Qiao Jiaojiao didn't expect that the Emperor of Daxia would be so courageous.
She said without hesitation: "I do. Then listen carefully to my first question."
