Chapter 040 Puzzles(1/2)

Wanyan Kang sneered, if copying poems can bring back food, this business will definitely make a profit.

A poem can earn one hundred shi of food, why not copy it?

In front of me are a group of big fat sheep.

You say I plagiarized, well, show me the evidence!

TMD, you said I am uneducated and incompetent, but today I will turn into a genius and let you see what it means to be born with all my talents, and to come back after thousands of poems have been scattered!

But no one responded.

Wan Yankang walked towards Li Ke and clasped his fists: "Marquis Kaicheng, let's have some fun?"

Li Ke snorted coldly and turned away.

Although he suspected Wanyan Kang of plagiarism, he had no real evidence. Who knows what happened to him...

If you can't compare with him in terms of poetic talent, a hundred stones of grain will definitely be nothing, but where is the reputation of Marquis Kaicheng? How can he fall so low in front of Princess Qi!

His nature was such that he would always encourage his younger brother to charge into battle if he was unsure of anything.

Wan Yankang walked towards Tu Danguang again: "Brother Tu Dan, are you coming?"

Tu Danguang said angrily: "If you don't understand poetry and prose, why should you bet? If you want to bet, let's have a fight!"

"We'll talk about the martial arts fight another day. Today I'm meeting friends through literature."

Wan Yankang said and raised his fingers at Pulugu: "You? Try?"

Purugu was embarrassed and quenched his saliva.

He could make do with reading poetry in an arty way, but if he really wanted to write poetry, he would only make a fool of himself.

"Master Xu, shall we continue?"

Xu Ye's face turned red, he gritted his teeth and lowered his head in silence.

He has suffered a loss once, how dare he repeat the same mistake easily.

Wanyan Kang was very disappointed.

Turning around and looking at Daxingguo, Ma Liang and Pu San Jiu Jin were there.

Daxingguo was stunned: "Brother Kang, are you still going to bet with us?"

Wanyan Kang said confidently: "Why not make friends through poetry?"

As long as there is food to make money, the emperor will also take the gamble!

Ma Liang smiled bitterly: "Stop making trouble, brother Kang, our brothers, we don't want to fight among ourselves!"

As for Pu San Jiujin, he picked up a piece of snack, stuffed it into his mouth, chewed it and swallowed it, pretending that Wanyan Kang was a transparent person.

Wanyan Kang had no choice but to turn to Wanyan Hui and hand over his hands with a smile: "Princess Hui..."

Wanyanhui's riding whip exploded in her hand, and she said angrily: "Wanyan Kang, you want to be beaten?!"

Wanyan Kang looked around at everyone, returned to the table and drank a glass of wine. Then he smashed the wine glass to the ground. He sneered at Li Ke and others: "Don't you want me to prove my innocence? Come on, I'll wait.

you!"



No matter how Wan Yankang deliberately provoked him, no one responded, so naturally the fight ended.

Then it was time to enter the pot throwing game.

The gameplay is very simple, just throw the arrows into the vase-shaped pot. The one who hits more arrows wins, and the loser drinks the prescribed number of cups.

Because there was no bet, Wan Yankang suddenly lost interest.

He sat there casually, watching everyone enthusiastically taking turns throwing pots, while he drank to himself.

When it was his turn, he casually picked up an arrow and threw it. The arrow fluttered into the air and was still far away from throwing the pot.

Li Ke's group of people laughed and taunted him again, but he didn't care and continued to shoot four arrows in a row. In the end, only one of the arrows hit the target crookedly, and it barely missed the edge and entered the pot. According to the rules, he had to punish himself with four cups.

The drinks of this era are not only bland, but also have a peculiar smell and taste very bad.

But no matter how low the alcohol content was, he couldn't bear to drink too much. After finishing the self-imposed drinking, Wan Yankang obviously felt a little drunk and was in a hazy state.

Li Ke stared closely at Wan Yankang and saw him swaying and arm-in-arm with the neighboring Daxingguo, laughing and acting wildly.

There was a sneer at the corner of his mouth, and he suddenly said: "Little prince, you can't throw the pot. I think you won the poem contest. How about guessing the riddle?"

"There are dozens of riddles hanging on the osmanthus tree. Why don't you and I make a bet? Whoever guesses more correctly within one stick of incense will win."

"Don't worry, I don't care about your BMW either. I can offer you a hundred taels of gold as a bonus. If you win, the hundred taels of gold will be yours. If you lose, the white parrot in your house will be mine!"

"Bet or not?"

One hundred taels of gold, worth at least one thousand guan...

Well, Wan Yankang burped slightly, and he immediately became energetic.

He smacked his lips: "Do you really mean this? Do you regret losing?"

"How can I be a person who goes back on my word? What does a mere hundred taels of gold mean? I can still afford to lose!"

"What you say is unfounded, gold is your proof!" Wan Yankang raised his head and smelled of alcohol.

If you don't see a rabbit, you must not let go of the eagle.

Wanyan Kang suddenly wanted to raise a sea turtle. It is said that this kind of eagle raptor can not only attack swans, but is also a good bird for hunting fat sheep.

Li Ke didn't waste any time and immediately ordered people to get the gold.

Not long after, the golden gold was brought in and placed on Wanyan Kang's desk.

"Oh, this guy came prepared. He has so much gold with him..."

Wanyan Kang stood up slowly and walked around the osmanthus tree.

With his clairvoyant eyes open, the answers to the mystery sealed in the tree were useless to him.

But he was still a little suspicious, why would this guy use a hundred taels of gold to bet on a bird? It was so abnormal, there must be something wrong...

But after thinking about it, I felt that I couldn't lose no matter what because of my clairvoyance, so what if I agreed to him?

The main reason is that the temptation of these one hundred taels of gold is a bit too great.

To be honest, he has never seen so much gold. Can he put on two or three finger-thick gold chains, wear one around his neck, wrap one around his hands, and then stuff another one into his waist, and live like a rich man?

?

"What do you think? Little prince, do you dare? Forget it if you dare not. Come and collect the gold."

"Haha, okay, Marquis of Kaicheng, I'll bet with you on a riddle! If you lose, the bird will be yours, isn't it just a bird..." Wanyan Kang said casually.

Wanyan Hulan's face changed slightly when she heard this.

Few people know that the white parrot was given to Wanyan Hulan by the emperor, and she gave it to Prince Zhao's Mansion. There is actually some story in it...

Others don't know it, but she knows it well.

Li Ke suddenly took aim at the white parrot and naturally had other plans.

A hint of hidden joy flashed in Li Ke's eyes.

Today's banquet, whether it is an open provocation, secret humiliation, or instigating the younger brother to launch repeated "attacks" on Wan Yankang... Everything, no matter whether he wins or loses, is to pave the way for this moment.

And this guy finally fell for it!



A stick of sandalwood ignited.

Wan Yanhui started to sing the riddle according to the rules: "The willows are sparse and windy, type one word."

Li Ke immediately said: "Bin. Polite and polite."

"Seven or eight brothers were sitting around a pillar. When everyone broke up, their clothes were all torn. Guess something."

"garlic."

"It is said that a creature is strangely born. One half of its body has two wings, and the other half has four hooves. The one with long hooves cannot run fast, and the one with wings cannot fly. Type a word."

The first two Li Ke answered very quickly. Wan Yanhui picked the riddle bag from the tree and opened it to reveal the complex puzzle. She originally thought that Li Ke would be stumped, but in the end, he answered the question almost before she even finished her words.

: "Fresh words!"

Everyone was shocked.

Li Ke even answered such a complicated crossword puzzle without thinking, which can only show that... there is a ghost in it!

Wanyan Hui frowned and couldn't help but glance at Wanyan Kang.

Although she didn't like Wanyan Kang, she couldn't stand Li Ke's secret deeds, but there was no evidence. The gamble had already begun and it was impossible to give up halfway.

Li Ke coughed: "Princess Hui, please don't waste time singing riddles!"

Wanyanhui had no choice but to continue to pick the riddle bag from the tree and sing the riddles one by one.

If this continues, Wanyan Kang will undoubtedly lose.
To be continued...
