The students and scholars were all shocked by the topics presented in this marriage competition, especially when they saw that most of the envoys were scratched by their heads.

Who is not a little pink these days?

Of course, these students and scholars didn't know what they were. They thought it was a question raised by His Highness the Crown Prince, and they thought that His Highness the Crown Prince was really amazing.

But among the ministers and officials of the Ming Dynasty, most of them already understood in their hearts.

Especially after seeing Li Qi.

This is true that Li Qi is Li Shanchang's son, but he is also the loyal and good partner of His Highness the King of Liao.

His Highness of the Liao King went to war with the army several times, and the deputy generals had a list of Li Qi.

Of course, no one would think that His Highness of the Liao King would threaten the position of Prince Zhu Biao. As for the same sentence, if any prince does not accept the prince and wants to compete with the prince for the position of the Eastern Palace, his head would be really stuck in the crack of the door.

So no matter how strong His Highness of the Liao King is, in the eyes of the ministers, His Highness of the Liao King will be the right-hand man of His Highness of the Crown Prince in the future.

Therefore, Li Qi followed His Highness the King of Liao to fight with the army, and no one felt that there was any statement about the King of Liao.

After all, after the Ming Dynasty, they belonged to His Royal Highness, so there were so many twists and turns.

In addition, I heard before that the emperor personally admitted that His Highness the King of Liao was responsible for this matter. In other words, His Highness the Crown Prince was simply pushed to the scene by His Highness the King of Liao. The mastermind behind this scene was His Highness the King of Liao at all.

As for why this is the case, the officials in the Ming Dynasty officialdom, such as Xu Da, Hu Weiyong, Li Shanchang, etc., were all ghostly and genius people. How could they not understand the crux of the problem?

His Highness the King of Liao got close to the envoys of various countries, and now Li Qi is allowed to marry him on the game.

This is clearly what His Highness the King of Liao was deliberately trying to trick the envoys into fulfilling the good things that Li Qi and Princess Lin'an were doing.

As for whether these ministers will speak for the envoys, don’t joke, let’s not talk about whether His Highness the King of Liao can deal with it.

Li Qi is the son of Li Shanchang. Although the left prime minister is Hu Weiyong and Li Shanchang has retreated behind the scenes, the most prestigious among all officials is Li Shanchang.

Who dares to make good things about destroying Li Shan’s family openly?

If you are more courageous and have a little more imagination, you even think that this is a conspiracy between Li Shanchang and His Highness the King of Liao?

Everyone knows it clearly, but I have to say that His Highness the King of Liao's wisdom is really amazing. Who dares to be in trouble with His Highness the King of Liao...

—————

The officials here are very careful, but the competitions are still going to continue.

Zhu Yuanzhang in the stands was happy, but the score was already one game for Goryeo envoy and Li Qi, and the rest were all duck eggs.

However, the rest of the people were actually here to accompany the run. Zhu Qi mainly arranged the Goryeo envoys and helped Li Qi win the competition.

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at the school ground, a group of onlookers were in high spirits. Everyone was waiting for the third round to begin, so he asked Zhu Qi:

"The third brother, the score has been tied now. If you favor Li Qi in the third game, I am afraid that the Goryeo envoy will see something. But if you don't favor, if this Goryeo envoy wins, I will keep my word."

Zhu Qi laughed as soon as he heard this, "What a guy, are you teaching me how to do things?"

But just thinking about this in his mind, he still said respectfully:

"Dad, don't worry, everything is arranged by my child."

The third game began soon over the other side of the competition venue.

However, this time, the Nine-Curve Pearls were brought one by one and distributed to the participants. At the same time, the internal officer loudly explained the rules of the fun.

It’s very simple. Who can connect these nine-curve pearls first and win by saying that!

One of the envoys laughed on the spot:

"Isn't this just needlework? I'm good at it!"

But he hadn't been happy for too long, so he heard the inner official continue to add: But there is a rule that you can't use ordinary needles and threads to penetrate, you must use silk and satin!

What a good guy, use silk to wear the Nine-Curve Pearls? How can I wear this?

There is still a chance for ordinary needlework, but this silk is really gone for a chance.

No chance, but I still need to work hard. Li Chengxu quickly picked up the Nine-Curve Pearl and started working hard. But it turns out that if you want to use silk satin to wear beads, it is really fantastic.

Just when Li Chengxu was at a loss, the inner official who had appeared quietly came again.

When Li Chengxu saw that the inner official was the inner official sent by His Highness the King of Liao in the second game before!

Sure enough, the inner official quietly walked to the side of the Goryeo Envoy Group, then whispered several times with the person next to him, and then sent a small box, and then quietly retreated back.

The envoy quickly walked to Li Chengxu's side with the box, and then whispered a few words. Li Chengxu's eyes lit up and couldn't help shouting on the spot:

"Your Highness, I, Li Chengxu, have a great fortune in my life with such a great friend as you!"

If Li Chengxu had just wanted to use His Highness the King of Liao before, then now he really treated His Highness the King of Liao as a true friend.

In this box, the winning magic weapon for the third game is placed!

Li Chengxu opened the box and placed several ants in it, as well as honey for seducing ants, and the bottles!

Let’s not talk about it, and now we start to do a good job.

However, after Li Chengxu took the ant and started operating, he found that the ant seemed a little different from other ants. Why didn’t it follow Honey!

If I could follow Honey, there would be a ghost.

Because Zhu Qi personally handled these ants. The tentacles on its head and used for sensing have all been specially treated. Not to mention honey, even if you throw it into a honey jar, it may not be able to react!

But Li Chengxu didn't understand these things. He thought it was his own operation problem, so he was so busy.

On the other hand, Li Qi guided the ants to work in an orderly manner.

When the other envoys saw that Li Chengxu and Li Qi were both using ants, they all started looking for ants one by one.

But in addition to ants, they also have to look for honey, and the time spent a lot of time wasted.

Li Qi, who was in action at the beginning, was done at this time.

When Li Qi lit up the beads he had put on, the inner officer there started to announce loudly with quick eyes and hands:

"The final winner, Li Qi!"

As soon as these words were said, the entire school ground began to boil, and everyone began to celebrate the winning Li Qi.

Li Chengxu sighed, and the envoys next to him came over, and they all sighed.

But Li Chengxu quickly cheered up and said:

"Although we were unable to marry a princess, we know His Highness the King of Liao, so we can rely more on it in the future."

The other envoys also had their eyes lit up. Yes, look at how powerful His Highness of the Liao King is today. He helps us without leaving any effort. If it were someone else, how could he get such treatment?

Although I did not marry a princess, if I maintain this kind of friendship with His Highness the King of Liao, it would be of great use in the future.

What's more, the fief of the King of Liao is still in Liaodong. If the Ming Dynasty really recaptured Liaodong, His Highness of Liao will become a vassal in the future.

With the help of His Highness the King of Liao, our Goryeo can take advantage of Liaodong more or less.

Even, taking advantage of His Highness Liao's negligence...

When Li Chengxu thought of this, he made up his mind to establish a good relationship with His Highness the King of Liao. As for the princess, he would not force it.

—————

When the marriage competition came to an end, the embassy groups no longer forced the princess to marry him.

The envoys set out on their way back to their country. Except for the envoys of the Northern and Southern Dynasties in Japan, they said that they would be granted the Ming Dynasty's grace.

But there are two kings in this country of Japan. The Ming Dynasty did not want to get involved in the affairs of Japan at this time, so he only said: "Whoever can stabilize the situation and resolve the Japanese pirate rebellion on the seaside of our Ming Dynasty, we will enthrone who will be the king of Japan."

During this Hongwu dynasty, the Japanese pirate rebellion was still concentrated in the Liaodong region.

It is conceivable that after Zhu Qi annihilated the Northern Yuan fleet, the Japanese pirate rebellion in Liaodong would definitely become more and more serious.

Zhu Yuanzhang was determined to regain the world, and Liaodong was naturally one of his goals. Has the Liao king been sealed?

What he wants is a safe and stable Liaodong, so naturally he doesn't want a serious Liaodong with Japanese turmoil.

As for how Japan will do it in the Northern and Southern Dynasties, that is what Japan does.

But Zhu Qi knew very well that the Southern Dynasties would definitely fail in the end. After all, it was the fifteenth month of the eighth year of Hongwu. In a few years, the Northern Dynasties would reunify Japan.

So Zhu Qi also talked a few more words with the envoys of the Northern Dynasties and developed some friendships.

It’s not that I want to have a good relationship with Japan, but that I really discovered a new continent in the Americas in the future and wanted to open a stable route, Japan’s transit station is essential.

This is the island chain to go to sea. It must be controlled by one's own hands, so there is no reason to make him independent.

As for the Goryeo envoy, he can be said to be the most attentive one. Before leaving, he even gave Zhu Qi a lot of "special products".

Zhu Qi was humble while allowing people to move to the Royal Entertainment Center.

Zhu Yuanzhang had told the truth, he could collect all the money himself, that's all that scare!

Besides, this is not called corruption. I take specialties from foreign friends and develop myself. Can this be called corruption? It is definitely not possible.

Zhu Qi's plan was very successful. At least now he and Li Chengxu are already superficial brothers.

Go to the Royal Entertainment Center, report Zhu Qi's name directly, and then pay a lot of money to the superficial brother.

Before leaving, Li Chengxu held Zhu Qi's hand and reluctantly left. Zhu Qi also repeatedly told him to take good care of his health and to be a vassal of Liaodong in the future and invite him to sit in the first place.

Then Zhu Qi asked a key question:
To be continued...
