   Chapter 414 414 Last Question

  Xu Yan glanced at Xu Qing.

  Xu Qing closed his mouth.

   glanced at him and looked anxiously at his two princes of Chu and Jin. A hint of helplessness flashed on Xu Yan's face.

   Immediately let people continue to take the sixth question.

The topic    was brought up, but Xu Yan was in no hurry to let it begin.

   Instead, he looked at Lin Xiaoyue opposite.

   "The first five questions were of average difficulty, but the next five questions are different."

   "If you can't solve it, the old man suggests that you can skip it." Xu Yan said.

After    finished speaking, he also looked in the direction where Liu Wuji was.

  Xu Qing and Meng Lin felt a lot more at ease when they heard what Xu Yan said.

   Even the two princes of Chu and Jin, who were still restless just now, calmed down and looked at the courtiers of Yan State arrogantly again.

  On the side of Yan Kingdom, the courtiers were discussing again.

   looked at Xu Yan and others on guard, and at the same time, looked at Lin Xiaoyue expectantly.

  Liu Wuji smiled at Xu Yan, then looked at Lin Xiaoyue and nodded.

   Lin Xiaoyue then looked back at Xu Yan.

   "Thank you for reminding Xu Lao." He bowed to Xu Yan.

  Xu Yan nodded, which made people start the topic.

   Next, as before, Liang Chengcai read the question for Lin Xiaoyue.

Mo Fei on the side of    also took notes while reading the questions.

   At this time, everyone's eyes were focused on Lin Xiaoyue.

  I only saw her as before, and it was recorded in that booklet.

   After listening to the title, as before, continue to draw on the booklet.

   At this moment, in the eyes of the courtiers of Dayan, Lin Xiaoyue's booklet seemed to be full of magic.

   They felt that as long as Lin Xiaoyue wrote a scribble on it, the answer would soon be solved.

  Xu Qing looked at Lin Xiaoyue, saw that she was more hesitant than when she was doing the questions before, and felt a little relieved.

   If she can't figure it out, she definitely can't figure it out!

   The last five questions were written by his master, and each question was extremely difficult.

   Even he, after seeing it, did not find a solution to the problem.

   Compared to Xu Qing, Xu Yan's expression was solemn.

Before   , he despised this woman.

   She could be valued by Liu Wuji, and she was chosen to represent Yan Kingdom to compete with them, how could her strength be average?

   But, it doesn't matter.

   The next five questions are the real confrontation between them.

   He also wanted to see that Liu Wuji's people could solve a few of his problems.

  Lin Xiaoyue really felt that this sixth question was far more difficult than the previous questions.

   However, it is still within the scope of her handling.

   It was just two more reasons, and Lin Xiaoyue made her thinking clear.

   The answer was quickly solved.

   Liang Chengcai and Mo Fei admired Lin Xiaoyue.

  This time, because they didn't clarify their thinking, the two of them couldn't help Lin Xiaoyue check the calculation.

   As a result, Lin Xiaoyue explained the problem-solving ideas to the two on the spot.

   Wait until the two understand it, and then let the two check the results.

   It was confirmed that the three final results were the same, and Lin Xiaoyue answered.

   As soon as the answer came out, everyone looked at Xu Yan.

   Some people want to hear Xu Yan announce that the answer is correct, while others want to announce that they are wrong.

  Unfortunately, the result will only satisfy one party.

   Xu Yan said with a serious face: "Correct. Go to question seven."

  In an instant, the hall was filled with excitement.

  Dayan's courtiers were talking again and were happy that they had hoped for success just now.

  The sixth princess also looked at Emperor Yan with excitement.

   "I just said that Mr. will be able to answer correctly! Mr.'s arithmetic skills are unmatched in the world!" His eyes were full of admiration for Lin Xiaoyue.

   Emperor Yan did not correct the exaggeration in the Sixth Princess's words, but nodded with a smile.

   That girl is indeed capable!

   Xu Qing, who was behind Xu Yan, grabbed the hem of his clothes with his hand.

  Because the force was too strong, the blue veins almost did not show on the back of the hand.

how come? Did you get it right again?

  The person chosen by the national teacher of the State of Yan is stronger in arithmetic than him, and much stronger...

  No, his master is as famous as the national teacher of Yan State.

   As Master's disciple, how could he be weaker than the opponent's disciple? !

   Just now she answered the question correctly again, it must be because of luck! It must be so!

   Also, there are four more puzzles to come.

   She must not be able to solve it!

  Xu Yan also frowned at this time.

  Other people stood far away, maybe they didn't see clearly what happened on the opposite side.

   But he was standing not far from them, watching and listening to what happened on the opposite side and what they said.

   The woman Liu Wuji chose not only solved his problem.

   also explained the problem-solving idea to the other two people, and asked them to help her check the answer.

   She has done so much in such a short time. Terrible...

  Yes, he actually thought of the word "terrible".

  Although some fear has risen in his heart, Xu Yan still has a steady expression.

   There are four more questions.

   After the seventh question came up, Xu Yan ignored the gazes around him, especially the gazes of the two princes of Chu and Jin. Staring straight at Lin Xiaoyue and the others.

   And Lin Xiaoyue didn't care, and continued to solve the problem, check the calculation and answer the question according to the previous procedure.

   Soon the seventh, eighth, and even ninth questions were all answered correctly.

   At this time, the courtiers of the Yan Kingdom were no longer nervous one by one, and their faces were full of smiles.

  Some people, even inadvertently, looked in the direction of the two princes of Chu and Jin.

   Seeing the angry and helpless appearances of the two princes made me feel better.

  Xu Qing's face was already pale, and the sweat on his back had soaked his clothes.

   is over, the general trend is over.

   That Madam Li is so powerful, they are afraid they will lose this match.

   Yes, even with his master, he has lost confidence now.

   But they can't afford to lose.

  Master agreed to his request and went out at the invitation of Emperor Jin.

  Emperor Jin treated them with respect to their masters and apprentices, and Emperor Chu also had high hopes for them.

   If this time they return home, how should Emperor Jin treat their master and apprentice? How do people in the world view them?

   At that time, people in the world will only spread rumors that his master has a false name and is not worthy of the same name as the national master of Yan.

   said that his master was no match for those who had only been trained for a few days after being selected by the State of Yan.

  Master's reputation is ruined, what good reputation can he have as a disciple of Master?

   When the state of Jin and Chu will not be able to accommodate him, what use is there for him?

   Xu Qing at this time, when he set out to Yan Kingdom, how high-spirited he was, and how depressed he was at the moment.

  Xu Yan didn't care about Xu Qing. Or at the moment, he didn't even bother to pay attention to Xu Qing.

   "You—the old man was surprised." Xu Yan looked at Lin Xiaoyue opposite. There was some tiredness in his tone.

  Lin Xiaoyue smiled.

   "Many thanks to Mr. Xu for your compliment." Chong Xu Yan bowed his hands.

  Xu Yan sighed.

   then looked behind Lin Xiaoyue, where Liu Wuji was.

   asked Lin Xiaoyue again, "Liu Wuji, how long has it been cultivated?"

  Lin Xiaoyue was taken aback.

how long? one day?

   "Haha, it doesn't matter!" Before Lin Xiaoyue could answer, Xu Yan laughed.

   "Brother Liu, you have cultivated a good disciple. I lost..." Immediately, Xu Yan rushed to Liu Wuji.

  Liu Wuji smiled and glanced at Lin Xiaoyue who was a little dazed with satisfaction.

   "It's not wrong to lose." He replied.

   "Yue'er's talent in arithmetic is stronger than that of this old man. It has long been out of blue." Liu Wuji said.

   One sentence confirms that Lin Xiaoyue is his own disciple.

   It's not that he is greedy for a master's reputation, but that he has to save some follow-up troubles for his granddaughter.

  Xu Yan's eyes were startled.

   then looked at Lin Xiaoyue again.

   "Blue comes out of blue." He said.

   Then his eyes changed, and Xu Yan spoke again.

   "Since that's the case, the tenth question, the old man will change the question. Please ask Mrs. Li to enlighten me." After saying that, Xu Yan actually bowed to Lin Xiaoyue.

   Everyone was surprised.

   Above the throne, Emperor Yan frowned directly.

  The ministers of Yan State also talked a lot, but they didn't want Lin Xiaoyue to agree to change the subject.

  Obviously, Xu Yan changed the subject.

   The changed questions are definitely more difficult than the ones prepared in advance.

   When the two princes of Chu and Jin saw this, they immediately spoke up.

   shouted to change the subject.

   For a while, the hall was noisy.

  Lin Xiaoyue is in a dilemma.

   "Haha, it's okay." Unexpectedly, Liu Wuji suddenly said. Actually agreed for her.

  Emperor Yan and the courtiers of the state of Yan all looked at their national teachers. Although they were a little annoyed, no one dared to say anything.

  The National Teacher is so confident in Madam Li that they have to trust the National Teacher.

   In addition, if Madam Li can completely defeat the Chu and Jin envoys this time, it will be a good thing for them to win even more beautifully.

  Thinking of this, the courtiers became quiet.

   "If that's the case, then ask Mr. Xu to ask the question." Lin Xiaoyue accepted it calmly, and saluted Xu Yan.

  Xu Yan looked at Lin Xiaoyue with a little more appreciation.

   "Before the question, the old man has to speak clearly in advance."

   "Elder Xu, please speak." Lin Xiaoyue was still respectful.

   "This question, the old man has no solution." Xu Yan said.

   As soon as these words came out, there was an uproar in the hall.

What? No answer?

   Questions without answers can also be used as exam questions?

   Then Mrs. Li gave the answer, how to judge whether the answer is correct?

   Yes or no answer is wrong?

   This Xu Yan is as famous as their national teacher, how could he be so shameless?

   In the face of the comments of the courtiers of Yan State, there was no turbulence on Xu Yan's face.

   He didn't take it seriously when he heard the two princes of Chu and Jin refute the courtiers of Yan State and refuted his "shameless behavior".

   "Hehe-" Suddenly Xu Yan laughed twice.

  The inside of the hall instantly fell silent.

   Seeing that Lin Xiaoyue's expression did not change, Xu Yan spoke again.

   "Although the old man has no answer. But after Madam answers, verify it, and you will know whether the answer is correct."

  Xu Yan added: "This question was left by the teacher before the death of the teacher."

   "The old man is ashamed. After more than ten years of research, he has not been able to solve the answer."

   Xu Yan said, and looked at Liu Wuji again.

   "Brother Liu should know."

   Liu Wuji was called and nodded with a smile.

"Um."

   Then, he looked at Lin Xiaoyue happily.

   What to say? Coincidentally?

   One of the questions given by his granddaughter before, happened to be the same question left by Xu Yan's master, and the idea was the same.

  Yes, it is the nine-square calculation problem.

   He remembered that at that time Xu Yan's master left a topic that filled in the numbers from one to nine into the nine-square grid, so that the three numbers horizontally, vertically and diagonally in the nine-square grid would add up to fifteen.

   This question, he also tried to answer before.

   can try many times, but can't solve it. Later gave up.

   Yesterday, when he saw the question from his granddaughter, he was shocked. But didn't say much.

  Speaking of which, the question given by his granddaughter was more difficult than the one left by Xu Yan's master.

   requires the nine numbers from ten to eighteen to be filled in the nine-square grid. The three numbers that are horizontal, vertical and diagonal in the nine-square grid are all equal to forty-two after adding up.

   Since it is a more difficult question, his granddaughter can solve it.

   Xu Yan's next topic is a no-brainer for his granddaughter.

  Liu Wuji took his eyes away from Lin Xiaoyue.

   Immediately, Chong Xu Yan smiled.

   "The old man has always been very regretful that he couldn't solve that problem. Today, it's okay to let Yue'er try it." Liu Wuji said.

   said and looked at Lin Xiaoyue again.

  In an instant, everyone in the arena focused their attention on Lin Xiaoyue.

What? Ask Mrs. Li to solve the problem that even Master Xu Yan and Master Guo Shi were unable to solve?

   Mr. Guo Shi said before that Mrs. Li is now beyond the blue. Is this statement true?

   Hearing Liu Wuji say this, Xu Yan nodded.

   Immediately stepped forward, borrowed the pen and paper of Lin Xiaoyue and others, and drew a large nine-square grid on a piece of paper.

After   , Xu Qing, who was on the side, lifted the paper and showed it to people in all directions in the hall.

   "This question can be answered not only by Mrs. Li, but also by the officials of Dayan. If someone answers correctly, the tenth question is over." Xu Yan said.

   As soon as these words came out, the officials of Dayan were excited.

  The two princes of Chu and Jin, although a little dissatisfied, didn't say much.

   Questions that neither Xu Yan nor the national teacher of Yan State could answer, even if the officials of Dayan also participated in answering the questions, they would not even think of answering them.

   Emperor Yan saw the nine-square grid painted by Xu Yan and subconsciously glanced at Lin Xiaoyue.

   I thought to myself, it seems a little familiar.

  Not only Emperor Yan, but also the Sixth Princess, Liang Chengcai and Mo Fei who have the same behavior.

  Because of Lin Xiaoyue's topic, they have met before.

When the hall became quiet again, Xu Yan said: "The question of this old man is to fill in the nine numbers from one to nine, so that the three numbers horizontally, vertically and diagonally in the nine-square grid will be added together. All equal to fifteen."

   As soon as Xu Yan finished speaking, the sixth princess and the others looked at the Jiugongge in Xu Qing's hands, their eyes straightened.

  Although it's not the same question, it's really...a type...

   Moreover, Mrs. Li's questions were even more difficult than those given by Master Xu Yan's teacher.

   At this time, everyone is not worried at all.

   This question may not be solved by others, but Mrs. Li is absolutely fine.

  Emperor Yan also took a deep look and glanced at his national teacher.

   understood the look in Lin Xiaoyue's eyes from the National Teacher.

   Master Guo Shi said just now that he can't solve this problem, is that true?

   Those questions that Mrs. Li posed before were really her own ideas?

   Emperor Yan smiled and didn't think any more.

  Right now, all you need to know is that in this match against Chu Jin, they will definitely win.
