Read The Ultimate Husband by Skykissing wolf Chapter 1164 – No one was sure who had said that as everyone was focused on the jade.
Everyone knew that Westrington was well-known for its jade production. The jade in Yoel’s hands was pure white and flawless, the greatest treasure of all time.
“What an exquisite piece of jade! It would be so beautiful if you could put a string through it and make it into a necklace.”
“Yes, Her Majesty is so beautiful. If this jade were to be made into a pendant for her, it would be a perfect match for a perfect beauty!”
The Empress smiled briefly, hearing the Ministers’ words. Although she was royalty and the ruler of a continent, she was also a woman who loved to be beautiful. The Empress was delighted by the kind words of the Ministers.
At that moment, Yoel smiled as he walked a few steps forward, and raised the jade in his hand, and said, “Your Majesty! This beautiful jade is called the Nine Curves Jade. This is a treasure that is well sought after by everyone in Westrington! Three years ago, when the Westrington continent was still not united, the different clans would always challenge each other. It would bring pride to their clan if they could obtain this jade. Finally, once the Westrington Emperor united everyone, this Nine Curves Jade ended up in the hands of our Emperor!”
Everyone’s face looked serious, and the main hall was in complete silence.
At that moment, Yoel smiled and continued, “The reason for this jade’s name is because of this tiny hole on the surface of the jade. There are nine curves and eighteen turns in the tiny hole. If you wish to wear this beautiful jade on your neck, then you would need to put a thread over the beautiful jade as the tiny hole won’t allow a thread to pass through it. Therefore, till this day, no one has ever worn this beautiful jade on their neck.”
As he spoke, Yoel held the jade and displayed it in front of the Ministers.
Everyone could see that there was a tiny hole in the middle of the beautiful jade. The small hole was not straight, but there were a full eighteen turns.
Yoel laughed and said to the Empress, “Your Majesty, before I arrived at the main hall, I wanted to use a red thread to go through the Nine Curves Jade so that Your Majesty could wear it on her body. However, the thread is too soft, and there was no way for it to get through the tiny hole. I wasn’t born smart; I could not figure out a way to put the red thread through.”
Yoel took out a red thread from his person and said, “However, I heard that there are plenty of resources and wise people at South Cloud World. All the Ministers present are highly intelligent. I believe all of you will know a way to put the thread through.”
The Westrington Emperor gave Yoel a mission on his diplomatic trip to find out the South Cloud World’s real abilities. South Cloud World’s Ministers were all so powerful. He knew in his heart; it was impossible to defeat the South Cloud World with a real battle. However, he could not waste his trip there. He had to humiliate the Ministers of South Cloud World so that he could report that to the Westrington Emperor when he returned.
At that moment, the Ministers broke into discussion instantly.
“This tiny hole had eighteen turns; how could a thread go through it?”
“That’s right, it is impossible.”
Darryl furrowed his brows as he stared at the Nine Curves Jade. He became interested in it.
Using a thread to go through a tiny, curved hole in a beautiful jade would be impossible for an ordinary person. Even cultivators would need to be extremely careful not to use their internal energy. The Nine Curves Jade was extremely fragile and would crack easily if one was not careful.
