A Clash of Gods Chapter 609: Make a bet
Qing Ning and Lord Yu looked at each other and looked at Ling Huxu. Linghuxu said with a smile: "This is the case. The emperor's dormitory has not been repaired for many years. As a courtier, I have spoken to the emperor. Rebuild the dormitory. The emperor takes care of everything, and the dragon body must naturally take care, so in order for the emperor to rest well, the wood of the dormitory must be carefully selected."
Yu Wangye smiled and said: "This should be the case. Xiangye, there is a kind of ancient wood in Liaodong, which is most suitable for use in the dormitory, which can help sleep and recuperate. If it is not abandoned, my country is willing to provide wood for repairing the dormitory."
"Thank you." Ling Huxu arched his hands and smiled: "The ancient wood of the Han Dynasty is naturally unusual, but the emperor has chosen the fragrant wood."
"Scale incense wood?"
Ling Huxu explained: "In fact, this is wood on an island in the East China Sea. Although the island is not large, there are 78,000 people who have become independent nations and Boyang."
Yu Wang nodded: "I also heard of this Boyang country, but a small country in the East China Sea islands."
"Nice." Linghu Xu said: "Boyang's specialty is scented wood. The scent of the wood can last for decades, and it makes people calm and calm. The best thing is to promote sleep. For many years, the emperor had a string of incense wood, which was regarded as a treasure, so this time to build a palace, the emperor meant to use the scale of incense wood in Boyang."
Yu Yu said: "What could go wrong?"
Ling Huxu sighed: "The Boyang Kingdom is not human, so it has been negotiated many times, and they have repeatedly shunned..."
Bei Tangfeng couldn't help but say: "Xiangye, the little Boyang Kingdom, dare to be so rampant. Your Dongqi naval forces are desperate, sending soldiers to fight over. I see what they are talking about."
Yu Yu frowned slightly, Linghu Xu had already sighed: "Although the second prince said there is a way, but the emperor loved the country with benevolence, now we only have the East Qi to seek the Boyang State, not Boyang The country violates our Dongqi, so the force of movement is unreasonable, and our Dongqi is by no means relying on the strong and the weak."
His words seem to be a pun.
Qining finally said: "Mr. Xiang mentioned this matter tonight, could it be that the Boyang State has given your country any problems, so you want to discuss it together?"
Ling Huxu smiled and said: "Jin Yihou is really smart. Yes, we sent a few envoys to negotiate in the past, sincerely, and King Boyang also loosened his tone, but he may feel so easy to say yes. His prestige in the country was impaired, so he asked a question. If we could answer the question, they immediately agreed to provide scale incense."
"Oh?" Qi Ning asked: "What's the problem?"
Linghu Xu said: "Come here!"
As soon as his voice fell, a house servant came in with a piece of wood of the same thickness as the plan. The arms were thin and long, and the arms were straight, and the ends were almost the same size. Everyone looked at each other and made Hu Xu do it. After a gesture, the servant, holding the wood in his hands, first came to Lord Yu, let him see clearly, and then turned around and held the wood to Qi Ning.
Qining smelled a woody scent, knowing that this should be the scale wood, and for a while did not understand what medicine was sold in Linghuxu gourd.
Ling Huxu sighed: "The problem of King Boyang is on this piece of wood. Lord, Jin Yihou, King Boyang asked us to identify which end of this piece of wood is the treetop and which end is the root, I It’s very blunt and I haven’t been able to figure it out. Today, Lord Yu and Jinyi are here, and I just ask the two to help me solve this trouble.”

I immediately said: "Mr. Xiang, this Boyang country is obviously intentionally embarrassing. There is no difference between the two ends of this wood, and it is impossible to judge. If I were to recognize the age of this incense, I might try it. "
"The second prince said so." Ling Huxu said: "Since this King Boyang has a problem, it is naturally not simple, but after all, if I can't give an answer, and I don't say that the emperor's palace will not go smoothly. Repairing is that our face is also not good-looking."
Qining thought that this did not necessarily mean that King Boyang would embarrass Dong Qi, but Dong Qi wanted to test Chu and Han.
If Ling Huxu seriously considers the face of Dong Qi, he will naturally not throw this question to the envoys of Chu and Han to answer. Then if he admits that Dong Qi has no solution, his face will not look good.
Yu Yu is clearly aware of this, but everyone is naturally unspoken.
"Will Lord Ye have a way to identify it?" Ling Huxu looked at Lord Yu with a smile, and the officials, big and small, looked at Lord Yu.
Master Yu Yu thought about it, but he pondered. Although Bogutong was so high today, he let him write poems and essays, but the question raised by Linghu Xu was a bit embarrassing.
Ling Huxu saw this, turned to Qi Ning, and asked, "Can Jinyi wait for insight?"
Qining was calm and calm, smiling: "The elders come first, or please ask Master Yu to answer first."
All the officials at the scene thought that Lord Yu was so knowledgeable and proficient that he could not answer it in a short time. This young man was young and naturally impossible to answer. He seemed to say to Lord Yu Respect, but it is probably because I don’t know how to answer at all, so I’ll excuse it.
Some officials here did not know that the monarchy of the Eastern Qi monarch was going to be repaired, nor did they know that they were looking for Boyang State to trade scale incense wood. Hearing the question of Linghu Xu, everyone looked at the scale incense wood held by the servant To find out what method can be used to identify it.
Being heard Qining’s words, Bei Tangfeng mocked: “Jin Yihou, you don’t have to be so polite. If you don’t know what to do, just say you don’t know what to do, what elders are first, what do you think in your heart? , Don’t you know that the prince?"
Beihan and Nanchu are enemy countries, and both sides don’t look at each other well, and everyone knows it, but Bei Tangfeng is so ridiculous that Qi Ning is so disdainful. It is a few years older than Qi Ning, but his training is obviously not as good as that of Qi Ning. Qi Ning is calm and comfortable from beginning to end.
Qing Ning smiled faintly and said, "May the second prince recognize the ends of the scale incense?"
Beitang Fengdao: "I asked myself that there is no way, but you have no way."
"Oh?" Qi Ning smiled and said: "The second prince is so sure? Otherwise, how about you and me making a bet?"
"What to gamble?"
Qing Ning said: "The second prince was born noble, and his daily life is naturally splendid. I have no other requirements. If I can identify the ends of the wood, can the second prince make fun and sing for all of you here. A song or a dance is fine. How do you know it?"
Beijing Tangfeng is very angry, and I want you to let Lao Tzu sing and dance under the eyes of all eyes. Is it because I want to treat my prince of the Northern Han Dynasty as a cheap song Jiwu Ji, barely controlling emotions, sneering: "If What if you lose?"
Qining raised his hand and said: "But please send the second prince."
Bei Tangfeng's eyes turned and smiled: "This prince is not embarrassing for you, if you lose, I will make you

People cut all your hair buns, do you dare to agree? "
As soon as this statement came out, everyone on the scene was slightly discolored. Lord Yu Yu said in a deep voice: "You can't be embarrassed."
Although Qi Ning proposed to let Bei Tangfeng sing and dance, it meant ridiculing Bei Tangfeng, but Bei Tangfeng offered to let Qi Ning cut her hair, not just ridicule, but a great insult.
In this era, people firmly believe that the parents of body hair and skin, the hair bun is like the head, and the hair bun is cut off, and it is no different from the head cut. In a certain point of view, unless the monk sees the red dust, the hair is cut. It is much more serious than head-cutting, and it is even more humiliating.
Everyone thought that the young people were not convinced of each other, and it was not a strange thing to bet against each other, but the conditions proposed by Bei Tangfeng were extremely demanding, and Qi Ning would not agree.
You know Qi Ning smiled lightly, Yun Danfeng lightly said: "Good!"
Bei Tangfeng's spirit revived and said anxiously: "Everyone heard that, I didn't force him, he agreed to it. Qi Ning, everyone heard clearly, the man's big husband, he said, not bad Backfire."
Qing Ning arched his hands and said: "Everyone, the second prince said very much, the man's big husband, saying nothing, it would be a shameless villain." He got up and said to Linghu: "Xiangye, Please help me prepare a large tank with half a tank of water."
Everyone was stunned. I don’t know what famous place Qi Ning was going to make, but Linghu Xu was slightly bowing his head. After a short command, two people lifted a large cylinder and came in and placed it in the middle. After half a tank of water, Qi Ning glanced at Bei Tangfeng, and then he said to the housekeeper who was holding the wood: "Put the wood in the water tank."
The man looked at Ling Huxu and saw that Ling Huxu nodded. Then he put the wood into the water tank. Qi Ning walked over to the water tank and glanced at it, then he said to Linghu Xu: " Lord, the answer has come out, please come and watch."
Ling Huxu stood up immediately and walked to the water tank. Lord Yu and all the officials also got up and surrounded him. Bei Tangfeng followed Lord Yu and looked at the water tank. He saw the wood in the water tank. Waving, sneering: "Qining, where is the answer?"
"You don't know, it doesn't mean that others don't know." Qi Ning said lightly: "In fact, this problem is not difficult, or even extremely simple. Everything in the world can't be uplifted, turbidity down, light and turbid. The same is true for trees~IndoMTL.com~ The roots are slightly heavier and the tops are lighter." Lifting your finger at the wood in the water tank: "Everyone can see at a glance that the wood is in the water, the ends are uneven, and one end is slightly sunk in the water. , The other end is floating upwards, which section is the root of the tree, which end is the treetop, I don’t think I need to explain it anymore."
As soon as he finished explaining, everyone watched carefully, and saw that the wood had settled down, and it turned out that it was soaked a little deeper in the water. Many people were suddenly enlightened. Some people have exclaimed: "Gao Ming, Gao Ming, and really Gao Ming, it was so simple."
In fact, this is a very simple physical principle. For Qi Ning, who was a man of the two worlds, it was extremely simple, but for people of this era, it is difficult to think of this.
The Beitang wind changed its color, and his eyes turned, sneeringly said: "What clear air rises and turbid air falls, Qi Ning, you are making a mystery, who knows whether it is true or false, can't you say that this is the case."
In fact, some people have the same thoughts as Bei Tangfeng, but they feel that this may not be the case. This is a very simple truth in later generations. At this time, not everyone can understand it. Qi Ning glanced and saw Half of them nodded their heads in admiration, but some were silent, and others showed suspicion. They sighed in their hearts and could only sigh: "Since the second prince doesn't believe it, it's actually very simple to verify."
