Obviously, Mo Jiazi could only have had one girl with him last night. How could there be more than ten girls at the same time? Obviously, only one of them was real.
"Mo Jiazi really has good luck with women!" The crowd could not help but sigh at Mo Jiazi's luck with women. He actually attracted so many girls.
"Didn't they say that the love token that Mo Jiazi gave to the girl was the first type of gold thread? It's hard to tell. "Juren Sun frowned.
The servant in green shook his head and said, "Although gold jewelry is very pure, it looks no different from normal gold jewelry. It's very hard to tell."
Juren Sun did not understand and asked, "Doesn't the Golden Jade Pavilion have their own exclusive logo?"
The servant in green shook his head and said, "Why not? The gold thread is very common jewelry. Almost all the girls in Chang 'an have it. Even the Golden Jade Pavilion doesn't know how many of them have been sold. If a girl really took out the gold thread that she bought from the Golden Jade Pavilion, I'm afraid there's no way to tell."
The crowd fell silent. In this era, there were very limited methods to prevent counterfeiting. If that was the case, there really was no way to tell.
Juren Sun suddenly chuckled and said, "Why are we worrying here? The one who is really worried is Mo Jiazi!"
The crowd roared with laughter.
"Then what do you think Mo Jiazi will do?" Juren Sun's companion laughed.
They thought that the gossip on the night of Shangyuan was already very interesting. They did not expect it to be even more exciting.
"What's so difficult about that? As long as Mo Jiazi shows up, he can just deny it. "One of the customers did not understand.
"I'm afraid that's what these girls want." Juren Sun sighed.
The crowd was puzzled.
"If Mo Jiazi comes out and denies that he protected the person he loves, there will definitely be a woman who insists that she is that woman. She will accuse Mo Jiazi of abandoning her and ruining Mo Jiazi's reputation. If Mo Jiazi reveals the person he loves, it will definitely cause a woman to be criticized by the entire city. That is not what a man should do."
After Scholar Sun finished his analysis, everyone couldn't help but fall silent. Although the Tang Dynasty was open, there was still a barrier between men and women. To the men, this was a romantic story, but to the women, there would definitely be a lot of criticism.
If they were in Mo Jiazi's shoes, they would be in a dilemma.
Soon, the news of the women fighting for a husband outside the Mo manor spread throughout the entire city of Chang 'an. It immediately caused a heated discussion.
Within the Mo clan.
Li Yi stared dumbfoundedly at the dozen or so carriages parked at the entrance. He was just complaining that the Young Master didn't mention the other party's name. Now, more than a dozen people had suddenly appeared.
Clearly, most of them were fake. But what troubled him was that he couldn't refute them at all.
"What do we do now?" Li Yi was at a loss.
"Let's ask Mo Jiazi to come out and see if it's true or not. Won't we know once we see her?" A man in the crowd said.
"That's right. That way, we can give the girl an explanation."
"Could it be that Mo Jiazi wants to abandon her?"
… … …
There were many different opinions in the crowd. Quite a few people were jeering.
Everyone in the Mo clan was solemn. If this matter wasn't handled properly, the Mo clan's reputation would definitely hit rock bottom.
Outside the Mo clan, Wei Sian sat in his carriage and heard the jeering from the crowd. He couldn't help but feel proud.
"Son of the Mo Family, let's see how you're going to escape this time." Wei Sian's face was sinister. When he spread the news about Mo Jiazi's homosexual tendencies, he didn't think that it would be resolved with a single poem.
Since his first plan failed, he came up with a second one. Unwilling to give up, he came up with another one.
"But young master, what if Mo Jiazi really does come out and see them? Won't they be able to tell with a single glance?" Beside Wei Sian, the servant who spread the rumor last night said.
"Come out?" Wei Sian sneered, "Do you think that these girls are afraid of Mo Jiazi coming out? Don't they know that they're fake? Maybe what they want is to see Mo Jiazi. "
Mo Jiazi was famous in Chang 'an. He was like a celebrity in the future. Many people wanted to see him but couldn't. If they could use this opportunity to see Mo Jiazi, it would be exactly what they wanted. This was also why Wei Sian was able to gather so many girls without much effort.
"And even if Mo Jiazi comes out today, I won't even need to find people tomorrow. There will definitely be several times more people coming to the Mo clan." It had to be said that Wei Sian really was quite a genius. He had actually grasped the mentality of the fans of the future.
"Young master is wise!" The servant from the Wei family said in admiration.
At this moment, the commotion outside the Mo clan grew louder and louder. The situation was about to spiral out of control. Wei Sian couldn't help but smile complacently.
With a creak, the doors of the Mo clan opened heavily. A young man in embroidered clothes walked out of the Mo clan. Everyone couldn't help but fall silent. They couldn't help but look at the young man.
"Young master!"
Li Yi immediately looked at Meton worriedly and stood in front of Meton.
Wei Sian's face immediately flushed red with excitement. As long as Mo Jiazi came out, he would fall into his trap.
Meton shook his head and took a firm step forward. Immediately, many pairs of eyes in the carriage looked over, curiously studying Meton.
"Thank you for your kindness. I am ashamed to accept it." Meton bowed towards the carriages. Of course, he knew that it was impossible for Princess Changle to be in the carriage. However, under the gazes of the world, no matter what the reason was, the fact that these women had come out of their own accord was already extremely courageous. The grace of a beauty was the hardest thing to accept!
In the carriage, the women could not help but feel touched. Their actions had placed Meton in an awkward position, but Meton did not blame them.
"Merton, please don't blame us. We've been rude." A clear, pleasant voice rang out from the carriage closest to Meton. Just from the voice, it was possible to imagine that the person in the carriage was a beauty.
"Please come forward, Merton. If Merton sees me and believes that I'm not the person from yesterday, I'll immediately turn around and leave. I won't bother you at all," the pleasant voice said urgently.
Meton shook his head and said: "There's no need to see me. Everyone, please go back!"
Once they met, even if Meton denied it, it would still damage the reputation of these women. These women were only acting on impulse, so Meton naturally had to consider everything.
The woman in the carriage was puzzled: "Merton, are you not afraid that we're the people from yesterday and miss this opportunity?"
Meton sighed and said: "The proof you all used was the golden strands in your hands. However, just by looking at the strands in your hands, I can tell that you're not the people from yesterday."
Everyone was stunned and stared at Meton in disbelief. Even the best craftsmen in the Golden Jade Pavilion couldn't tell the authenticity of these strands, but Mo Jiazi could?
Meton took a step forward and loudly said: "In the Far West, Archimedes, who was comparable to Mo Sheng, also encountered the same problem as today."
"Archimedes?" Everyone was confused for a moment before remembering that this person was Mo Jiazi, the Virtuous Paragon of the Mo Clan from the outer realms during the Western Realm Conference.
"Legend has it that the king of the Far West had a craftsman make him a crown made of pure gold. However, after it was done, the king suspected that the craftsman's crown was not made of pure gold. However, this crown was indeed as heavy as the one given to the craftsman. Did the craftsman embezzle the gold or not? "Meton loudly said.
Everyone was surprised and couldn't help but look at the strands hanging in front of the carriage. These strands were the same as the first one; they were of the same weight and style, making it difficult to distinguish. This was very similar to the situation at that time.
"The king wanted to test the authenticity, but he couldn't destroy the crown. This problem not only baffled the king, but also caused the ministers to look at each other. After a minister suggested it, the king invited Archimedes to examine it. At first, Archimedes also racked his brains, but he couldn't do anything. "
Everyone couldn't help but frown and think hard. They couldn't help but shake their heads and sigh. Just like today, they clearly knew that at most one of these strands was real and the others were fake, but they simply couldn't tell which one was the real one.
"Then how did this outer realm Mo Clan do it?" Someone loudly asked in the crowd.
Everyone had a faint guess in their hearts. Since this Mo Jiazi was able to talk about this matter, then there must be a way to solve today's situation.
After hearing this, Meton immediately revealed a confident smile. Wei Sian, who was in the crowd, suddenly felt his heart sink and knew that this was not good.
Sure enough, Meton loudly said: "One day, Archimedes was taking a bath at home. When he sat in the basin, he saw the water overflowing. Only then did he realize and found a solution."
Meton's narration was very moving and tugged at their heartstrings. Everyone couldn't help but listen.
"He came to the palace and placed his crown and the same weight of pure gold in two basins filled with water. After comparing the amount of water overflowing from the two basins, he found that the basin with the crown overflowed more water than the other basin. This meant that the volume of the crown was larger than the same weight of pure gold, so it proved that the crown was mixed with other metals. "Meton solved the riddle.
Everyone was suddenly enlightened.
Meton proudly said: "Gold is the world's heaviest metal, and the same weight, its volume is the smallest. Similarly, the golden strands are the same. Last night's golden strands were the world's first golden strands, and the volume is the smallest under the same weight. The other strands are not pure gold, and their volume is larger than pure gold. As long as we use this method to test, the results will naturally be clear."
Wei Sian's eyes almost popped out of their sockets. He never thought that Mo Jiazi would be so strange. In this kind of impossible situation, he was still able to turn the tables.
"Mo Jiazi really is Mo Jiazi." Everyone sighed emotionally. As long as Mo Jiazi was present, there was definitely nothing he couldn't do. He could create miracles time and time again.
"Everyone, please! The Mo clan has already ordered the Golden Jade Pavilion to test you one by one. If there is any damage, the Mo clan will pay for it. "Uncle Fu sighed.
However, none of the carriages moved. Sobs rang out from the carriages from time to time. Although they had been incited to come, the most important thing to them was Mo Jiazi. Their only request was to see Mo Jiazi, but this wish had been shattered.
"Is Merton really so heartless? He won't even see us? "A pleasant voice sobbed from the carriage closest to Meton.
