A basin of ice water came down, which made Timur look a little clearer.
He looked expressionlessly towards the emperor, bowed again, and said: "Your Majesty, the great Emperor of the Ming Dynasty, foreign ministers have heard that the Ming Dynasty's treasures and treasures are outstanding, and there are many talents in the court. There is a saying in Chagatai Khan It is a difficult problem that no one has been able to solve for hundreds of years. I came to Ming Dynasty this time to see if anyone in the Ming Dynasty can solve this problem. Now we might as well take this problem as a bet, if no one in Ming Dynasty can solve it. Untied, how about we please set the exchange ratio of Ming Dynasty treasure banknotes to our country at one to one?"
Timur's arrogant tone immediately angered all the officials in the hall. Everyone is gearing up, just wanting to teach this rampant Timur a lesson.
When faced with the angry looks of the officials, Timur not only showed no fear at all, but instead faced everyone with contempt, further arousing the officials' anger.
Lao Zhu remained calm and asked calmly: "Then what if I, Da Ming, solve the problem?"
Timur smiled and said: "If someone in the Ming Dynasty can solve it, then the foreign minister will agree to exchange the treasure banknotes with the Ming Dynasty one to five on behalf of the Chagatai Khanate."
"Since you have lost, you should look like you have lost. These countries all exchanged Ming treasure banknotes one to ten. Why did the Chagatai Khanate want to be new and different?" Some officials couldn't stand Timur's arrogance and couldn't stand it. He kept sarcastic.
Faced with the ridicule, Timur did not show any emotion at all. Instead, he retorted: "Aren't the three countries of Korea, Ryukyu and Siam one to five? We, the Chagatai Khanate, are willing to be like these small countries of Zuer and have already surrendered. , why not? Of course, if Ming is not confident, then it is okay not to compare. Then please ask Ming to adjust the exchange ratio of treasure banknotes to one to one!"
Faced with Timur's provocation, some of the officials were naturally dissatisfied and couldn't help but argue with him.
In the end, it was Lao Zhu who waved his hand to stop the quarrel between Baiguan and Timur.
"Prince Timur has come a long way after all. I, Ming Dynasty, will do my duty as a landlord and follow your words."
After all, the Ming Dynasty is the suzerain country. It seems that it can be compared or not, but in fact, there is no room for retreat on such an issue. In this case, it is better to accept it generously and show the magnanimity of the Lord.
Moreover, Lao Zhu is also confident that he has countless civil servants and generals and will not be troubled by this boy.
After a pause, Lao Zhu said confidently: "If Ming Dynasty wins, one to five."
"If the foreign minister is lucky enough to win, let's fight one against one." Timur responded tit for tat, without any intention of giving the Ming Emperor any face.
"Prince Timur is indeed a young man with great energy!" Lao Zhu said with a smile on his lips.
"I will come to the country tomorrow and I will not disappoint the foreign ministers." Timur stared at the emperor closely, his eyes unblinking.
The atmosphere inside Fengtian Hall suddenly became solemn. All the officials who were angry just now could not help but hold their breath and stood quietly watching the development of the situation. As for foreign ministers like Korea, Ryukyu, and Siam, they have long shrunk and wished that everyone would ignore them.
Unlike the indignant officials, Han Du couldn't help but shrink his neck. This Timur's posture shows that he is well prepared. How can he be easy to deal with? Who knows what weird questions he would come up with to embarrass Ming Dynasty. No one is a god and can know all the questions in this world.
Sure enough, just when the hall was quiet.
Timur laughed confidently and said: "The Ming Dynasty is indeed a great kingdom with extraordinary magnanimity. I beg your Majesty the Emperor to call in the entourage of the foreign ministers. They will bring the problems that the foreign ministers want to solve."
"Xuan!"
As Lao Zhu's order was conveyed, soon the Shahakht whom Han Du had met came in carrying a large box.
First he bowed to Lao Zhu, then put down the box and stood aside.
Timur motioned to several people to open the box.
An old man among the entourage did not let anyone else help. Instead, he bowed to the box several times alone before opening the box lightly. The movement was very gentle, as if he was afraid that if he applied too much force, it would be damaged.
As the box opened, a circular base with three equally erected pillars appeared in front of everyone. There are three pillars, two of which are empty, and the only one has a string of gold disks strung on it.
All the officials looked at each other, not knowing what the use of this thing was.
Only Han Du looked at the appearance of this thing and seemed to have some impression in his mind, but he couldn't remember it.
Timur did not leave everyone confused for too long. He stood next to the box and explained: "In the legend of body poison, the great Brahma who created the world left a warning to the world. On a pillar from top to bottom in order of size Stack sixty-four gold discs, and rearrange the discs on another pillar in order of size from the bottom. Moreover, the disc cannot be enlarged on the small disc. Between the three pillars, one can only enlarge the disc at a time. Move a disk. When all the disks are moved from one strung pillar to another, the whole world will be destroyed in endless thunder. If you can move it once every breath, There are 86,400 breaths in a day and 365 days in a year, so I dare to ask the great Ming Emperor, how many years will it take to move all the disks to another pillar?"
After Timur finished speaking, a smile appeared on his lips. The more respectful he is to the Ming Emperor now, the harder he will hit the emperor in the face later.
After hearing this, Lao Zhu's face suddenly became a little ugly, as did the faces of the same officials.
When the officials first heard what Timur said, although they did not think that this number was the simplest sixty-four, they estimated that it was probably tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands.
But after listening to Timur's words, they did not dare to speak without permission.
There are 86,400 breaths in a day and 365 days in a year.
And Timur asked how many years it would take?
In other words, this shouldn't be just one year at least, right? Even if it takes one year to move, how many times will it take? Eighty-six thousand, four hundred times three hundred and sixty-five...how much is this?
Timur stood beside the pillar, looking down at everyone triumphantly.
Han Du could guarantee that at this time, at least half of the officials in the hall were hiding their hands in their sleeves and calculating constantly. The remaining half simply gave up after hearing such numbers.
"Master Lin, I heard that Master Lin is a great scholar. I wonder if it would be convenient for me to inform my subordinates?"
The official named Mr. Lin gave his colleague a fierce look.
