It was all for the sake of throwing the game and finding a powerful backer through this imperial relative.
He hoped that this imperial relative would be smart enough to guess it right away. Otherwise, it would benefit others.
However, if others guessed it, he could just send his thugs to snatch it back.
"It's fine. You can set the question first. Everyone can guess it based on their own ability." Chu Xuanchen's voice carried a strong sense of arrogance.
Everyone can guess?
Suddenly, everyone felt that this noble and handsome young master's face was cold, but he was still very magnanimous.
The skinny monkey was stunned. Wasn't this noble young master too magnanimous? He clearly only wanted him to guess and throw the game for him with the simplest question.
In the end, he actually said that everyone could guess it.
His precious hairpin couldn't be guessed by those poor scholars. Therefore, he could only set the most difficult question to test everyone.
Since this noble young master couldn't get it, he wouldn't let anyone else get it.
He cleared his throat and said, "Since that's the case, then I'll give you a question. I'll give you an ancient poem riddle that no one can solve. Those who have studied lantern riddles should have heard of it before. No one can solve it now. The riddle is: the emperor has it, but not the ministers; the marshal has it, but not the general; the master has it, but not the disciple; the market has it, but not the assembly; the young lady has it, but not the scholar's study. Type a word. "
He had also studied lantern riddles, so he came up with a riddle that no one could solve until now. This way, his hairpin wouldn't be guessed by others.
When everyone heard this, they all racked their brains to think.
"Young Master Jiang, can you guess it?" Yun Ruoyue looked at Jiang Muyu and gave him an encouraging look.
mark(“zhong“);
She hoped that Jiang Muyu would guess it correctly, but she didn't hope that Chu Xuanchen would guess it correctly. For a military general like Chu Xuanchen, his literary skills should be very ordinary, right?
Jiang Muyu thought carefully for a moment. A trace of a smile flashed in his eyes, but on the surface, he sighed and shook his head. "Sorry, I can't guess it."
It was better for him not to get involved in the quarrel between husband and wife.
The others also shook their heads. None of them could guess. They could only look at the hairpin and sigh.
Chu Xuanchen glanced at the magnolia hairpin and said indifferently, "The answer is' Jin ', the word for' Jin '."
As soon as this answer came out, the onlookers sighed.
"Aiya, why didn't I think of the word 'Jin'? There was a scarf for the emperor's' emperor 'character, a scarf for the marshal's' commander 'character, a scarf for the master's' teacher 'character, a scarf for the market's' city 'character, and a scarf for the embroidered curtain. Wasn't the answer the word 'Jin'? I've been guessing that it was an object. "
"This noble young master is really smart. I couldn't tell. I thought rich young masters only knew how to eat, drink, and play, and were uncultured."
"Look at them. Do they look like they're uncultured? He can even guess the riddle that no one can solve. He is a person with real talent. "
When the skinny monkey-spirit heard this, he immediately smiled excitedly. He hurriedly handed the hairpin to Chu Xuanchen respectfully with a fawning expression. "Congratulations, Young Master. You've guessed correctly. This magnolia hairpin is now yours. This one's surname is Qin. I'm the owner of this jade shop. May I know Young Master's name? Would you do me the honor of having a cup of tea with me? "
If you can't bear to part with the child, you can't trap the wolf.
As a businessman, he was most afraid of officials. If he could have the support of an imperial relative, he would be rolling in money. This small hairpin could easily be earned back.
Chu Xuanchen coldly took the hairpin and ignored this Boss Qin.
He went straight to Yun Ruoyue. He suddenly raised his hand and took the cloud hairpin from her head. He coldly stuffed it into Jiang Muyu's hand. "This hairpin is not worthy of her."
