Chapter 676: The Last Question (3)

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

“Before setting the question, I have to make it clear in advance.”

“Please do.” Lin Xiaoyue was still respectful.

“I have no solution to this problem.” Xu Yan said.

As soon as he said this, the hall was in an uproar.

What was that? No answer?

A question without an answer could be used as a test?

Then, how could he determine whether the answer was correct?

Was it wrong to answer or not?

This Xu Yan was as famous as the Imperial Advisor, how could he be so shameless?

Faced with their questioning, Xu Yan’s face did not waver.

When he heard the two princes rebuke the courtiers of Yan and defend his “shameless behavior”, he did not take it seriously.

“Hehe…” Xu Yan suddenly laughed.

The hall instantly fell silent.

Seeing that Lin Xiaoyue’s expression did not change, Xu Yan spoke again.

“Although I don’t have an answer, after Mrs. Li answers, we can verify it and see if the answer is correct.”

“This question was asked by my master before he passed away,” Xu Yan added.

“He was sweating profusely. After studying for more than ten years, I still haven’t been able to solve it.”

Xu Yan said and looked at Liu Wuji.

“Liu should know.”

Liu Wuji nodded with a smile.

“Yes.”

Then, he looked at Lin Xiaoyue with a smile.

What a coincidence.

One of the questions that his granddaughter had given him earlier was exactly the same as the question that Xu Yan’s master had given him.

Yes, it was the nine-square calculation question.

He remembered that Xu Yan’s master had left him a question. “Put the numbers from one to nine into the nine squares, so that the three numbers in the horizontal, vertical, and diagonal squares add up to fifteen.”

He had tried to answer this question before.

However, after trying many times, he still could not unlock it. Later on, he gave up.

Yesterday, when he saw his granddaughter’s question, he was shocked. He didn’t say anything.

Speaking of which, the questions his granddaughter set were even more difficult than the ones left behind by Xu Yan’s master.

He was required to fill the nine numbers from ten to eighteen into a 9×9 grid. The horizontal, vertical, and diagonal numbers in the grid must add up to 42.

Since his granddaughter was able to come up with even more difficult questions, she would not have a problem answering the question.

Liu Wuji withdrew his gaze from Lin Xiaoyue.

Then, he smiled at Xu Yan.

“I’ve always felt regretful that I couldn’t solve the problem. There is no harm in letting Yue’er try.” Liu Wuji said.

As he spoke, he looked at Lin Xiaoyue.

In an instant, everyone’s eyes were focused on Lin Xiaoyue.

What was that? A question that even Master Xu Yan and the Imperial Advior couldn’t solve?

The Imperial Advisor had previously said that Madam Li had already surpassed her master. Was this true?

Hearing Liu Wuji’s words, Xu Yan nodded.

Then, he went forward and borrowed the pen and paper of Lin Xiaoyue and the others to draw a huge nine-palace box on a piece of paper.

After that, he asked Xu Qing to raise the paper and show it to everyone in the hall.

“Not only Madam Li can answer this question, but all the officials of the Great Yan can also try it. If someone answers correctly, the tenth question will be considered a pass.” Xu Yan said.

As soon as he said that, all the officials of the Great Yan became excited.

Although the Chu and Jin Princes were a little dissatisfied, they didn’t say anything.

If Xu Yan and the Imperial Advisor of the Yan Country couldn’t answer the question, even if the ministers of the Great Yan were to participate in the answer, they wouldn’t be able to answer it.

When Emperor Yan saw the nine squares drawn by Xu Yan, he subconsciously glanced at Lin Xiaoyue.ᴛʜɪs ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀ ɪs ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ʙʏ novelenglish.net . Fɪre.nᴇt

He thought that it seemed a little familiar.

It was not only Emperor Yan. The Sixth Princess, Liang Chengcai, and Mo Fei also did the same.

They had seen the questions Lin Xiaoyue had set before.

When the hall became quiet again, Xu Yan said, “fill the numbers from one to nine into this grid so that the three numbers in the horizontal, vertical, and diagonal, add up to fifteen.”

As soon as Xu Yan finished speaking, the Sixth Princess and the others looked at the grid.

Although it was not the same question, it was the same type…

Moreover, the questions that Madam Li had set were even more difficult.

At this moment, everyone was not worried at all.

Others might not be able to solve this question, but Mrs. Li definitely could.

Emperor Yan also looked at the Imperial Advisor.

He understood the way he looked at Lin Xiaoyue.

The Imperial Advisor just said that he couldn’t solve this problem, was it true?

Did Mrs. Li really come up with all those questions by herself?

Emperor Yan smiled and did not think too much about it.

Right now, all they needed to know was that the Great Yan would definitely win this match against Chu Jin..
