Chapter 172 Are you sweating profusely?



After Wen Yu kissed him, she looked at him with a smile: "Man, this is the punishment for your disobedience!"

Jiang Qi tightened his hands on his knees, his face serious, and he sighed, "As the eldest princess, you should keep yourself clean."

Wen Yu raised her eyebrows: "Then this princess disagrees, why don't you go and persuade your brother to keep himself clean?"

"How is that the same? Your Majesty is the Emperor..."

"What's the difference? I am the emperor's sister. If my brother has three thousand concubines, then as his sister, I must have three thousand concubines plus one."

Wen Yu said as she sat back in her seat, picked up the teacup and took a sip, then smiled and said, "After all, a sister should set an example for her brother."

Jiang Qi was shocked by these words: "Princess actually wants a harem of three thousand?"

"No." Wen Yu corrected very strictly, "It's three thousand plus one in the harem."

Jiang Qi: ...

He originally thought that the princess was frivolous and liked to tease men, but today when he heard that the princess had already had sex with General Lu in the palace, and heard her bold words this time, he slowly realized that she was not joking and she was serious.

"Princess……"

"Um?"

Jiang Qi was silent for a moment, and finally fell silent.

He could imagine that if he said anything educational again, the princess would educate him again in the next second, again with her mouth.

He had no doubt at this moment.

The carriage became eerily quiet for a moment, with only the sound of Wen Yu cracking melon seeds.

Liu Chun, who was sitting next to Wen Yu, looked at her nose and pretended not to hear anything, while peeling melon seeds skillfully with his hands.

At this time, Wen Yu was eating the melon seeds peeled by Liu Chun. She rolled her eyes and suddenly said, "As the Minister of Dali Temple, you must be very good at reasoning. Let me ask you a few questions to test you."

Jiang Qi was stunned for a moment, then nodded: "Princess, please ask."

Wen Yu cleared her throat and said, "Two people fell off a cliff at the same time. The dead are called dead people, and what are the living people called? Liuchun can also answer this."

Before Jiang Qi could say anything, Liu Chun excitedly answered: "Princess, this servant knows, it's called the survivor!"

Wen Yu shook her head: "No, Liuchun, what is Lord Jiang's answer?"

Jiang Qi thought for a moment: "The injured?"

Wen Yu continued to shake her head: "That's not right."

"Survivors?"

"wrong."

"…I am a stupid person, please enlighten me, Princess."

Wen Yu smiled and said, "The answer is, call for help."

Liuchun: ...

Jiang Qi: ...

Wen Yu ignored the silence of the two and continued to ask: "Why would a very hungry cat run away when it saw a mouse?"

Jiang Qi's eyebrows twitched slightly, and he answered, "Because the cat ran away to catch mice."

His tone was very confident, as if he had completely figured out the pattern of the question.

"As expected of you, Lord Jiang. You learn so quickly."

"Princess, it's actually very simple. When you are stuck in a problem, you just need to think outside of your usual way of thinking and think about it from another perspective. Then you can easily get the answer. Both questions are quite clever."

Wen Yu: ...

She didn't know that brain teasers were so sophisticated.

"Then I'll continue asking. Ask quickly and answer quickly. If you hesitate, it will be considered that you didn't answer correctly."

Jiang Qi nodded.

"Your father and your mother gave birth to a son, who is neither your older brother nor your younger brother. Who is he?"

Jiang Qi answered very quickly: "It was me, the humble official."

"When you take a bite of an apple and see a worm, it's scary. It's especially scary to see two worms. So how many worms would make you most scared?"

"Half a worm."

Wen Yu raised her eyebrows: "The two carriages collided and fell off the cliff, but no one was injured. Why?"

“Because they are all dead.”

"There were five caves in front of a tiger, and there was a sheep in each cave. Why did he enter the second cave?"

"It can go into any cave it wants to go into."

"In the classroom, all the students are sitting and listening to the class, why is Xiao Ming the only one standing?"

"Xiao Ming is the teacher."

"It takes one stick of incense to feed three children three cakes. How long will it take for ninety children to feed ninety cakes?"

"One stick of incense."

"What does my royal brother want to know from Lance?"

“…”

Jiang Qi was silent for a moment.

Liu Chun on the side was dumbfounded by the rapid questions and answers. Her brain could not keep up at all. She was still trying to understand Wen Yu's question when Jiang Qi had already finished answering it.

She seemed a bit like a fool standing aside.

Liuchun: ...

Wen Yu clapped her hands and said, "You can dodge a question like this. You are worthy of being Lord Jiang. You are really tight-lipped."

Jiang Qi looked at Wen Yu and said, "I don't understand what the princess means."

"Stop pretending. You should have expressed your doubt when I asked you that. It's been so long and you're just pretending to be confused. It's too late."

Jiang Qi's eyes flashed with surprise when he heard this: "I didn't expect the princess to be so sensitive to people's reactions and to be able to make accurate analysis."

"Of course. Nothing can escape the eyes of this princess. It's strange that my brother insisted on giving Lance to me today. After thinking through my genius brain..."

Wen Yu pushed the non-existent glasses on her nose, then stretched out a finger forward, her tone firm, full of wisdom that saw through everything: "New chicken, once, touch hey many times! There is only one truth!"

Jiang Qi: ...

He was silent for a moment, and suddenly looked relieved: "The princess seems to have a talent for solving cases, maybe we can dig deeper..."

“Don’t dig. Just bury this seed deep in my heart. If you dig it out, it will die.”

"No, princess, as long as you train and guide her well..."

"Don't train me. It's a waste of time, money, life, and your passionate heart. My seeds are alive, but your heart is dead."

Jiang Qi: ...

Wen Yu said: "So, answer my question, what does my brother want to know from Lance?"

Jiang Qi apologized, "Please forgive me, Your Majesty, since you didn't tell me, it means the time is not right. I cannot reveal anything."

Wen Yu raised her chin: "Then let me guess? If Lance doesn't want to say it, then he stuffed people into my princess mansion, huh? Could it be a honey trap?"

Jiang Qi: ...

Wen Yu patted his shoulder and said, "Are you sweating profusely, Lord Jiang?"
