tears, love

Chapter 24

Concubine Jin covered her lips and said with a smile: "That's kind, since it's my sister's reward, it must not be a vulgar thing, sisters have to be careful!"

The queen smiled disapprovingly and said, "Then I will start to come up with the question first. Everyone listen carefully. This is an anagram, and the answer is 'cut bamboo tube to add water'. I wonder if anyone can guess the answer?"

The concubines immediately started discussing left and right, and an elegant concubine stood up at the end of half-pay and said softly: "Back to sister, is the answer to this mystery a 'hole'?"

The queen smiled immediately and said: "Concubine Xiang is indeed the daughter of a scholar. She is indeed knowledgeable and quick-witted. You guessed it so easily!"

The woman smiled gently and said, "It's just that Xiang'er is lucky!" After finishing speaking, she sat back in her seat obediently.

Then it was Concubine Jin's turn. She stood up, rolled her winking eyes around the long table in the banquet hall, and then said, "My riddle is, "Admiral Zhou Yu at one point, hero Liu Guanzhang at two points, and Cao Cao is a traitor. The very hero is Lu Bu.'”

After the reading, there was a sudden silence below, and everyone looked at each other, but no one stood up to report the answer, and finally the queen spoke up and said: "Your sister's question is really tricky, so you stumped so many people all at once? I don’t know what the answer is? I’ll leave it to my sister to answer it herself!”

Concubine Jin showed a smug expression at the moment, her cherry lips parted slightly, but just as she was about to speak out, I took the first step and whispered, "But the word "needle"?"

Immediately all eyes were focused on me, and even Concubine Jin's eyes instantly changed into astonishment, as if I had seen this riddle there in my memory, but I didn't remember the answer very clearly, and it was just because of I read it intuitively, but judging by Concubine Jin's expression, I guess I guessed it right.

Concubine Jin was stunned for a moment, then she smiled and said, "Princess Side is really smart, the answer to my riddle is indeed the word 'needle'."

In this way, the wine order continued to be passed down.

Then another person stood up and said, "The concubine also has a puzzle planted in her mouth. It's not an apricot or an idiot. If you guess the difficult word, you are not a good scholar!""

"bundle!"

Someone among the concubines answered first, so the repetition was soon transferred to me. The queen smiled and said: "Why don't the concubine side come up with a mystery for everyone to guess?"

This?I’m okay with guessing riddles, but let me be enthralled…

I was in a difficult situation for a while, but when I thought about it, I would not know how to get out of the puzzle. But I know a lot about this kind of brain teaser, so I smiled and said: "Then ladies and gentlemen, listen carefully, Luo Yan's topic is 'A wolf arrived at the North Pole, fell into the into the frozen sea, what became of it when it was scooped up?'”

Uh?Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay again. Seeing that no one could give an answer, they simply explained to themselves: "It's betel nut! Isn't it an ice wolf after a wolf fell into the ice sea? Ice wolf, betel nut, whichever is homophonic!" said After that, he laughed out loud regardless of everyone's reaction.
