Since Li Tai couldn't wait to be abused, Li Zexuan naturally had to satisfy the little fatty's wish.
Li Zexuan walked two steps with his hands behind his back and slowly said,
"Then, Your Highness, please listen to the first question. What are paper and paper afraid of?"
Li Tai laughed and said, "Such a simple question. Li Zexuan, you're bound to lose. Haha, paper and paper are of course afraid of fire! It seems that you're bound to be a follower of the prince's residence. "
Li Zexuan shook his head and said lightly, "Your Highness, you've answered incorrectly."
Li Tai said in disbelief, "Is there another answer? I think you're deliberately acting shamelessly. If you can't give a convincing answer today, I won't forgive you. "
Li Zexuan ignored his threat and said with a smile, "Haha, I don't know if Your Highness has heard of the saying, 'Don't (paper) fear ten thousand, only (paper) fear what if.' The answer to this question is in this sentence, so I said that Your Highness has answered incorrectly. "
Cheng Chumo was stunned for a moment when he heard the answer. Then, he almost laughed out loud. He didn't expect Li Zexuan to be so mischievous and come up with such a tricky question. The people of the Tang Dynasty had never heard of a brain-teaser.
Li Tai was stunned for a moment before he reacted and said angrily, "You're playing word games. It's just a small trick. I've already understood the trick of your question. Quickly come up with the next question."
Haha, you think you've understood, but you don't know that you've just fallen into a big hole. Li Zexuan disagreed and continued, "Then, Your Highness, please listen to the second question. From 1 to 9, which number is the most hardworking and which number is the laziest?"
Li Tai stood up and scratched his head. After thinking for a long time, he still couldn't think of anything. Li Zexuan reminded him from the side, "Don't worry.
"Your Highness, hurry up. It's getting late."
Li Tai waved his hand and said impatiently, "This King can't think of anything. You win this question. Quickly tell me the answer."
"Replying to Your Highness, the answer to this question is 1) the laziest, 2) the most hardworking. As for the reason, I don't know if Your Highness has heard of the saying, 'One (1) does not do two (2) does not rest', hehe."
Another word game. Li Tai slapped his head in annoyance. He didn't think that he would make the same mistake twice. These two questions were very simple. He just had to start from the words themselves and find some idioms related to the questions. Then, he would be able to relate them to the questions.
Li Tai warned himself that he could not give Li Zexuan another chance.
After summing up the lessons of his two failures and making up his mind, Li Tai regained a bit of his confidence and said, "Let's continue with the next question. This King does not believe that I will make the same mistake a third time."
Li Zexuan chuckled. He also knew that these two brain teasers were very easy for people to find a way to solve the questions. With Li Tai's intelligence, he must have found a way to deal with such questions.
However, he did not plan on continuing with this question with Li Tai. He wanted to change the topic. He did not believe that Li Tai would be able to guess it.
"Hehe, since Your Highness is so confident, then please listen to the third question. May I ask why frogs can jump higher than trees?"
After Li Tai heard the question, he quickly searched his mind for an idiom or idiom related to frogs and trees. However, he could not think of anything. He could not help but feel anxious. Seeing that Li Zexuan was about to rush him again, he said angrily,
"This King does not know. Quickly tell me the answer."
Seeing the little fatty in front of him so anxious, Li Zexuan found it quite interesting. He chuckled and said, "Hehe, why can frogs jump higher than trees? That's because frogs can jump. Trees can't jump. Of course, they can jump higher than trees."
"Hahaha …"
Cheng Chumo's face turned red. He could not hold it in any longer and finally laughed out loud.
Li Tai was furious, "You are twisting words. You are clearly asking why frogs can jump higher than trees."
Li Zexuan spread his hands and said with a smile, "Yes, that's what I asked. Is there a problem with the answer?"
Li Tai carefully thought over Li Zexuan's question twice. Only then did he realize that there were actually two ways to understand the question. He had walked into the wrong line of thought from the beginning. This was another word game. However, Li Zexuan changed the way he played and he was tricked again.
However, he could not say that there was a problem with Li Zexuan's answer. If you agree to bet, you must accept defeat. He, Li Tai, still had gambling morals. At this moment, Li Tai was somewhat like a gambler. He said unwillingly,
"You win this question. Continue to the next question."
Li Zexuan originally thought that this little fatty was going to act shamelessly. He did not expect him to admit defeat so straightforwardly. He could not help but look at him in a higher light. He continued, "Well then, Your Highness, please listen to the fourth question. May I ask what part of a person's body is hard to lick and hard to not lick? If you want to sleep comfortably, you must first rub it."
When Cheng Chumo heard this, he staggered and almost fell to the ground. The first thing he thought of was a man's little brother. He really did not expect Li Zexuan to be so dirty. However, Lan 'er was still here. Was it really appropriate for Li Zexuan to ask such a question?
Cheng Chumo looked at Lan 'er worriedly.
Li Tai's first thought was also a man's little brother. Although he was not even ten years old, he was a member of the royal family. At this age, what did he not know?
At that moment, he wanted to blurt out the answer. However, when he saw Lan 'er beside Li Zexuan, he could not bring himself to say it.
He could not help but curse Li Zexuan's shamelessness in his heart. In order to win, he actually came up with such a dirty question. If there were only the few of them here, Li Tai would definitely not have any scruples. However, there was also a delicate little girl like Lan 'er. He really could not bear to say it out loud.
Li Tai's face turned red. In the end, he could only say angrily, "You are shameless. I can't answer, but I don't believe that you dare to say the answer."
Looking at Li Tai's and Cheng Chumo's reactions, Li Zexuan knew that these two fellows had misunderstood. The thoughts of these ancient people were not pure. Li Zexuan thought in his heart.
"Haha, Your Highness, what are you saying? Why would I not dare to say it? The answer to this question is teeth. Looking at Your Highness and Chou Ox's reactions, could it be that you have misunderstood?"
Lan 'er asked curiously, "Brother Chou Ox, what answer were you thinking of?"
Cheng Chumo's face turned red as he said awkwardly, "I didn't misunderstand. The answer I was thinking of was teeth. Yes, teeth."
Lan 'er looked curiously at Li Tai. Li Tai hurriedly waved his hand and said, "This King did not think of an answer. This question is my loss. Li Zexuan, quickly come up with the next question."
This made it seem like he was trying to hide something. Lan 'er's gaze turned even more suspicious, but she did not dare to ask. The impression Li Tai gave her previously was too fierce.
Li Zexuan said with a smile, "Your Highness has already lost four questions. Do you really want to continue?"
He was afraid that if this carried on, Li Tai would fly into a rage out of humiliation. That would not be good. The best outcome would be for Li Tai to take the initiative to end the bet, allowing everyone to reconcile.
However, he had underestimated the persistence of a gambler. Li Tai said with reddened eyes, "Continue. Why? Are you afraid that This King will go back on his word?"
He, Li Tai, had never suffered such a huge loss. He had to turn the tables, otherwise, it would be too embarrassing.
"Alright, in that case, let's continue." Li Zexuan said helplessly.
