Perfect Husband, The Destined One novel Chapter 1164

There was no telling who had said that, which piqued everyone's interest in the jade.

It was well-known that Westrington was rich for its fine jade. 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 pendant."

"Yes, Her Majesty is enchantingly beautiful. If this jade were to be made into a pendant for her, it would be a perfect match!"

The Empress smiled briefly, hearing the officials' words. Although she was royalty and the ruler of a nation, she was also a woman who loved to be beautiful. The Empress was delighted by the flatteries of the officials.

At that moment, Yoel smiled as he walked a few steps forward, 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 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 officials.

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 you could wear it. However, the thread is too soft, and there was no way for it to get through such a 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 pocket and said, "However, I heard that there are plenty of resources and wise people at South Cloud World. All the officials present are highly intelligent. I believe 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 officials 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 officials of South Cloud World so that he could report that to the Westrington

Emperor when he returned.

At that moment, the officials broke into discussion instantly.

"This tiny hole has 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.

Fletcher blushed in embarrassment. "This

He turned to the Empress and said, "Your Majesty, I was not successful just now. I shall try again."

As he said that, Fletcher's head was covered in sweat.

Another moment had passed, and Fletcher still was not successful. He had no choice but to give up unwillingly.

A few other officials tried too, but none of them were successful. The aura in the main hall was full of tension and awkwardness.

All the officials looked defeated as they faced the little Nine Curves Jade. They all had a long face and they did not look like the powerful officials they were. Every one of the officials looked extremely distraught.

The Empress furrowed her brows and looked around before she opened her mouth to speak, "How is it possible that no one could figure out a way?"

There were so many talented people in South Cloud World, but yet all of them were defeated by a piece of jade. If news of this were to spread to the other continents, the South Cloud World royal family would be humiliated.

At that moment, the main hall was in complete silence. Fletcher and the other officials all looked down on the ground, looking ashamed.
