Chapter 144: Seven-clawed Phoenix Jade Pendant

saw Li Chaoxiong unfold the green cloth, revealing an object inside, but it was just a small brocade box. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info Li Chaoxiong pressed the brocade box and saw that there was a jade pendant inside.

A jade pendant that Liu Shuangli has seen, decorated with a dragon and phoenix pattern.

"This is-" Liu Shuangli looked at Li Chaoxiong with suspicious eyes, saw that he just smiled casually, and then turned his head to Xu Zhensheng.

Xu Zhensheng squinted and asked, "Have you seen this Jade Peiliu girl?"

Liu Shuangli nodded, looked at Qin Siyang, and said in surprise: "This jade pendant is similar to Siyang's one." As she spoke, she curiously picked up the jade pendant and looked at it carefully.

"Is it really like that. Xu Zhensheng smiled, took out a jade pendant from his arms, handed it to Liu Shuang and said, "Miss Liu might as well take a look at this one again, compare it with the one in your hand and see what the difference is." ”

Liu Shuangli was shocked again, took the jade pendant handed by Xu Zhensheng and looked at it carefully, and saw that it was really similar to the one Li Chaoxiong took out, and the pattern painted on the jade pendant was exactly the same. If you look at them separately, it is impossible for ordinary people to see any difference between them. It is only when the two pieces are put together and compared in detail that many differences between the two can be discovered.

The two dragon and phoenix jade pendants are carved with the best jade jade. Just pinched it in his hand, he immediately noticed that the jade pendant that Xu Zhensheng took out was rougher, but the one given by Li Chaoxiong felt soft and silky as soon as he touched it, warming people's palms.

Then carefully distinguish with the eyes, Xu Zhensheng gave the jade pendant carving skills are not high, but many of the patterns seem to be in a hurry, and the carver is not all based on the texture of the jade itself to draw, it seems that every knife of the craftsman is just for this pattern, not to increase the color of the jade, not a natural work.

The jade pendant obtained from the Mongolian people, the hard work is very exquisite, and the carving skills are all according to the texture of the jade, each knife will only increase the beauty of the jade, and will never destroy the natural beauty of the jade.

Although the two jade pendants are so different, it cannot be denied that they are highly similar.

"This-" Liu Shuangli looked at this jade pendant, and then at another jade pendant, I really don't know why there are two jade pendants that are the same. Just wondering to herself, she suddenly rose up again, didn't Qin Siyang still have such a jade pendant on his body, then- didn't there be three at once.

Liu Shuangli looked at Qin Siyang with a puzzled expression.

Seeing that Qin Siyang had already leaned closer to look at the two jade pendants in Liu Shuangli's hand, his expression was cold, and there was no expression on his face.

After taking a closer look at the two jade pendants, Qin Siyang turned to Xu Zhensheng and asked in a cold voice, "Where did you get these two jade pendants?" ”

Xu Zhensheng lowered his head and smiled, first pointed to the one with a better jade color that Li Chaoxiong gave from the brocade box, and said, "This one was stolen from the Mongolian people a month ago. Then he pointed to the one he took out later, and said: "This one was last summer, when the prince lived in the Xuanhua bamboo forest, the third prince took the opportunity to peek at the jade pendant on the prince's body, painted the pattern himself, and asked someone to carve it according to the picture." ”

"What-"

Liu Shuangli was stunned for a moment.

"Lord Wang?" Guan was surprised by this title, and the person was stunned for a while.

Qin Siyang's heart sank, and his expression immediately changed.

He didn't wonder that Han Qihai would peek at and imitate the jade pendant on his body, because it was simply unavoidable.

He was horrified at another, the one he had stolen from the Mongols.

"Mengren, how can there be such a jade pendant?"

Qin Siyang was startled, reached out and grabbed the jade pendant that was still in Liu Shuangli's hand, which was said to have been stolen from the Mongolian people, and then looked at it carefully.

"Seven claws!" Qin Siyang exclaimed in surprise.

The picture on this jade pendant is actually a seven-clawed phoenix.

How can it be.

"Lord Wang is not mistaken, it is the seven-clawed phoenix. Xu Zhensheng said.

"What seven-clawed phoenix?" Liu Shuang said strangely.

Xu Zhensheng smiled, took back the jade pendant he handed her from Liu Shuangli's hand, and then said: "If you want to talk about this phoenix claw, it's just a matter of words, Miss Liu can sit down and listen slowly." ”

Seeing that Liu Shuangli obediently pulled Qin Siyang, who was still in fear, to sit down on a chair on the side, and looked at him again, Xu Zhensheng cleared his throat and explained: "It is said that when he was still the prince, the current saint had a chance to get a piece of Qingyun white fat jade that was half an adult's size. This jade is as white as the deep and continuous green silk clouds in the fat, flawless, and can be described as a priceless treasure. It is said that when the saint first got this jade, he was very happy, and wanted to ask someone to carve it into a jade wall or jade screen. Later, after a high-ranking arithmetic saw this jade, he praised it again and again, saying that this jade contains dragon qi and is a holy thing. It indicates that the Holy One will become a generation of Holy Lords. Even the saints should not only use this jade as a home decoration object. Seeing that the Holy One agreed with him, the arithmetic was very happy to explore the heavenly opportunities again, and then told the Holy Lord that although this thing is a holy thing, it cannot exist alone, otherwise the world will not have to be divided for this jade dispute, so it must be divided and existed. Finally, the arithmetic suggested that the saint divide this large Qingyun white fat jade into several small pieces, and then carve it into jade pendants and give them to the princes, so as to connect the dragon veins and survive forever. ”

Speaking of this, Xu Zhensheng looked at everyone in the cave with a smile, and saw that except for Liu Shuangli, the other three were listening to his explanation very seriously, even Li Chaoxiong, obviously didn't know the specific origin of this jade pendant before, and stood aside and listened carefully.

Xu Zhensheng smiled again, and then said: "The saint listened to the words of this counter, and at that time, the eldest son was born, and the saint immediately ordered someone to take a small piece from the Qingyun white fat jade, carve it into a dragon and phoenix pattern jade pendant, and give it to the eldest son. After that, sure enough, every step of the Holy Majesty was smooth. The saint believed the words of the arithmetic, and every time a son was born, he ordered someone to take a small piece of the green cloud white fat jade, carve it into a dragon and phoenix pattern jade pendant, and give it to him personally when he reached the age of one. ”

Speaking of this, Xu Zhensheng exhaled lightly, looked at everyone in the cave again, and saw Qin Siyang clutching the jade pendant stolen from the hands of the Mengren, with a deep expression.

"Because each son of the saint has such a dragon and phoenix pattern jade pendant, in order to distinguish it, and then, the saint specially ordered, except for the jade pendant obtained by the eldest son, the claws of the dragon and phoenix, all of which have four claws on each foot. The jade pendants obtained by the rest of the sons have one claw missing from each of the dragon's claws. On the two feet of the phoenix claws, the jade pendant obtained by the second son is a word foot, which is a two-clawed phoenix, and the jade pendant obtained by the third son is a word on the phoenix claw, and one foot is divided into two claws, which is a three-clawed phoenix. By analogy, the jade pendant obtained by the Seven Princes is, of course, a seven-clawed phoenix. ”

"This-" Liu Shuangli jumped up and looked at Qin Siyang with a deep brow.

Qin Siyang is the Seventh Prince Jinyang King, she has long known this, so the jade pendant held by the boy is of course the seven-clawed phoenix.

But, how could it be, this jade pendant would be in the hands of the Mengren?

Seeing Liu Shuangli looking at him with a frightened expression, Qin Siyang frowned tightly, and reached out to take out the blue purse that hung tightly on his chest.

It was embroidered by Liu Shuangli himself at that time, although Liu Shuangli's embroidery was not very good, but Qin Siyang cherished it very much, and tied it firmly on his chest with a few red silk strong ropes.

And what was in the purse were the two jade pendants that were more precious to him, and later the treasure gold seal that Han Qihai gave him was added.

I saw Qin Siyang take out his purse and take out the dragon and phoenix pattern jade pendant that had been on him from within.

Liu Shuang took a closer look and saw that the two jade pendants were really exactly the same, both were seven-clawed phoenixes.

If you look closely, the two jade pendants are also Qingyun white fat jade.

What's going on?

Liu Shuangli was stupid all of a sudden!

"Can the prince see the difference between the two jades?" asked Xu Zhensheng.

Qin Siyang squeezed the two jades tightly and was silent for a long time. Ning Shen was silent for a long time before he shook his head, indicating that he couldn't tell the difference.

Looking at the boy with a serious expression, Xu Zhensheng also frowned, stepped forward, bowed his head and asked if he could take a look.

Qin Siyang glanced at the man in front of him, nodded, and handed him the two pieces of jade in his hand.

After Xu Zhensheng bowed and saluted, he carefully took the two jade pendants with both hands, and then looked at them carefully.

I can't see the difference at all.

Xu Zhensheng's brows tightened, and he distinguished them extremely carefully for a long time before returning the two jade pendants to Qin Siyang with both hands.

After saluting Qin Siyang again, Xu Zhensheng stood back in his place.

Looking at his two children with a questioning face, Xu Zhensheng sighed deeply and said in a deep voice: "I heard that because the prince is the first son of the current saint who has just obtained the throne, in order to celebrate, all the etiquette is very grand. The jade pendant obtained by the prince when he turned one year old is also the most carefully carved by the craftsman. In terms of the meticulousness of the dragon scales and phoenix feathers, it is not found on all the jade pendants of other princes. Therefore, it can be said that it is the most unrepeatable jade pendant. ”

That being said, but now it's just such a jade pendant, and there are two of them.

Not only is the carving skill the same, but even the jade is the same Qingyun white fat jade. It can be said that it is really impeccable.

"How did you know that the Mongolian people had this jade pendant, and how did they steal it?" Qin Siyang squeezed the two identical jade pendants in his hand tightly, pursed his lips and asked.

Xu Zhensheng replied, "Oh, that's right. In the autumn of last year, after the prince left Xuanhua, the third prince arranged for Ling Feng and Ling Xue to take the two jade pendants copied from the two jade pendants on the prince's body to the area of the hill where the prince was hunted down and killed in Taiyuan at that time, deliberately making the appearance of the jade pendant visible to outsiders, and then put a long line to fish out several traitors in the prince's mansion. Because of this reason, the rumor that the jade pendant that should have been on the prince was left outside the country spread among the people. In order to prevent anyone from making trouble, the second and third sons specially ordered the intelligence of various parts of the Han Mansion to pay attention to this rumor. Sure enough, just after the New Year this year, I received information that someone in Mongolia had seen the jade pendant owned by the prince, but the prince did not know where. Seeing that this rumor spread strangely, the third prince was not at ease, so he went to the Mongolian people to investigate carefully, and really found out that there was a seven-clawed phoenix dragon and phoenix pattern jade pendant. At the same time, I also found out that the Mongolian people are secretly negotiating peace with my Great Zhou, and at the beginning of next month, the first Khan will personally send a delegation to the Great Zhou to negotiate peace, and this seven-clawed phoenix dragon and phoenix pattern jade pendant will also appear on the mission's gift list. When the second and third sons heard the news, they were frightened, afraid that something would really happen, and they had no choice but to secretly steal the rumored seven-clawed phoenix dragon and phoenix pattern jade pendant.
