(One hundred and fourteen) gemstones

Just now, he could flirt with Song Mier with ease, but now, he felt a wave of embarrassment inexplicably. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info However, Shen Zhan hid his embarrassment very well, and Song Mier was only a little shy when he did this kind of thing for the first time, and he didn't debunk him, but he felt more and more happy in his heart, and smiled, revealing two deep dimples on his cheeks, which made people feel more and more sweet.

Shen Zhan's throat tightened, and he coughed unnaturally, "Mi'er, let's continue to watch the next show?" ”

The next show is not exciting, nor is it ugly. As for the gifts, with the comparison between Shen Zhan's rare treasures and Yuan Shufei, Shu Meiren, Qin Guifei, Xianfei and others, it didn't show anything good.

It's just that unlike what gifts Shen Zhan gave at the beginning, he hooked the corners of his mouth with interest, maybe he was tired, or maybe it was other reasons, compared to the gifts offered by the concubines at the back, there was nothing new, or the talents he offered didn't have any intentions, so he was worried to see His Majesty's face sank and didn't speak for a long time, and the queen mother was also calm, as if she didn't see Your Majesty unhappy, she still tasted her own snacks, and when the concubines finished performing, they smiled slightly and said a "good" word. There was no other word.

The concubines simply regretted dying. At first, I thought that I heard that most people would not prepare for the queen's birthday banquet with their hearts, but this year was originally a small birthday, sixteen years old, as if who had passed the age of sixteen, and it was the first year of the queen's birth in the middle palace. And thinking that His Majesty was going to be there, he had an extra mind, and he didn't do too much perfunctory, and tried his best to attract His Majesty.

But who knows, there are so many concubines who seem to be full of energy, and the whole one is more exciting than the other. It's okay to say so-so?!

Those blind concubines, of course, suffered from His Majesty's cold face and the queen's slight smile "good", and it can't be said that they really don't perform well, how bad the gift is, but no matter how expensive the gift is, the performance is high, whether it is used or not, where the heart is used, smart people can see at a glance, these want to be opportunistic or have other purposes, naturally they can't please it.

It was already the middle of the moon, and it seemed that it had been almost two hours, and it was almost the turn of the concubines to perform, and many people's eyes began to fight, and they were not interested in eating in front of them.

This time, Liu Guifei was finally drawn.

Because the concubines at the table opposite Liu Guifei have finished their turns, only Liu Guifei is still beating drums and passing flowers.

Liu Guifei is obviously the first on this side, but it is precisely because of the first that most people are forced by Liu Guifei's prestige, and Liu Guifei will pass it on, and no one will dare to pass it back. And now, there are only a few people, and there is no way to pass it on to Concubine Liu. Finally in the third round, Liu Shuxing got the silk flower.

The main hall was silent for a moment.

Everyone knows that the queen mother and Liu Guifei are not harmonious with each other, and the first conflict occurred when the queen mother and Liu Guifei first entered the palace draft, and that time Liu Guifei lost the battle and left angrily.

Later, the queen mother became the queen, but Liu Guifei, who was proud of her beauty, became a concubine, and Liu Guifei would of course not be able to get over it.

In addition, it is obviously his aunt, and Queen Song, who is not related at all, is much better than himself.

And Your Majesty, it is not the kind of person who favors the concubine and snubs the queen, if you really compare, sometimes Your Majesty is more intimate to the queen than to the concubine. Speaking of which, since the concubine Niangniang entered the palace, there has really been no big mistake, but the queen has been several times, saying that she was poisoned, saying that she killed her palace maid, and even that the Mid-Autumn Festival dinner was not well cooked. The most direct-for-tat palace maid, everyone present still remembers that it is clear that His Majesty is indulging in Concubine Liu, but once Concubine Liu is serious, His Majesty will immediately turn to the queen. After such a big thing happened in the Mid-Autumn Festival, the queen mother only got a grounding punishment, and this grounding, but His Majesty still went to the queen mother every day to eat, what kind of grounding is this? ! Originally, the most fundamental purpose of the punishment of the ban was to make those concubines unable to see the emperor directly, nor could they be fortunate by the emperor's edict, but this queen mother was grounded, the queen mother could not take the initiative to see Your Majesty, and Your Majesty could not edict the queen, but Your Majesty went to the queen's palace every day to eat, what is the difference between this and not being grounded? !

Besides, this time, it is said that the queen and His Majesty had a conflict, and His Majesty has not been to the queen's palace for several days, but he has not deliberately favored any other concubine in the harem, and most of the time he rests in his own bedroom. But you say that the concubine is not favored? In the palace of the concubine, but under the queen, His Majesty goes to the place the most. And the concubine Niangniang usually bullied people, but she didn't see any reaction from His Majesty. Obviously, His Majesty is so towards the queen, but the noble concubine is unscrupulous towards the queen, and His Majesty has not punished him heavily. It's like... It's like neither side helps, and neither side gets involved.

You say, does the concubine hate the queen to the core?

If there is no queen mother, will the concubine become the queen? Could it be that the Queen Mother is not so disgusted with the concubine?

Besides, today, the Queen Mother reprimanded the concubine and her mother's brother and nephew in front of her, and then raised the queen's right-hand Qin Shuya as a concubine, and she greeted the queen mother with cold and warmth, as if she were her own daughter, and the concubine still knelt down in humiliation for a long time! You must know that since entering the palace, everyone has never seen the concubine give a big gift to the queen, and this is the first time!

How can you say that the concubine Niangniang can't hate?!

In the next banquet, the concubine Niangniang sat in the position like a puppet, looking at nothing without expression, you say such a concubine Niangniang, who would dare to pass the silk flowers to her?

But in the end, it ended up in the hands of the concubine.

The concubine took the silk flowers, is it a performance, or is she sitting still?

The eyes of the audience were condensed.

I saw that the concubine Niang Qianyu's hand gently flicked the silk flowers on the table twice, and her slender fingers were painted with scarlet nails, which made the skin on her hands even whiter. She touched the pattern on the silk flower, and her movements were intimate as if she were caressing her lover's body. It took a long time to see her slowly raise her head, her fingers on the silk flowers, but the corners of her mouth hooked up a nonchalant smile.

"Your Majesty, the concubine is stupid, I don't know what kind of things the queen mother likes, I can only guess based on the concubine's daily observations. The concubine saw that the queen mother loved big-colored clothes every day, and loved to match bright-colored gemstones, so the concubine entrusted Zhenyi Pavilion in the capital to find a lot of gemstone rough and loose stones for the queen. First, the queen mother is accustomed to love these colors, and the unpolished rough and unprocessed bare stones are more convenient for the queen mother to make the jewelry she wants. ”

Liu Shuxing said, raised his head, and the Sanxing next to him took an agarwood box from the hand of the Xiaogong people who had been hiding on the edge of the pillar behind him, only to see Sanxing come forward, lower his head, and open the box. For a while, the box was as long as the distance from an adult woman's forearm to her fingers, the upper arm was as wide, and the two palms were relatively deep horizontally, and the inside was divided into six grids, and the gems in each grid were full, and they were scattered with the gems of other grids.

I heard the noble concubine Liu Shuxing continue, "In this box, there are 500 rubies and emeralds, 605 sapphires, 750 golden and green opals, 400 opals, and 300 flower ambers and beeswax in amber. ”

Every time Liu Guifei pronounced the name of a gem, the concubines below made an inhalation sound, and by the time Liu Guifei finished reporting the gems, the concubines below had their eyes lit up.

Is this gift valuable?

If it is important, everyone thinks that it is not enough, how much heart is in this kind of jewelry that is entrusted to a jewelry store to collect.

But if it's expensive, it's really expensive.

Rubys, emeralds, sapphires・・・・・・ even a few small pieces of each one are enough to drive a woman crazy.

And Liu Guifei offered so much, a box full of thousands of gems.

I'm afraid the queen won't be able to use up so many gems in her life!

The concubine is really wealthy, and the gifts in front of her, which one is not inlaid with some gems on the jewelry, can be priceless.

The value of this box of gems is probably not much lower than His Majesty's dozen boxes of gifts.

Liu Guifei waited for everyone to breathe a sigh of relief, and then added: "These gems are all selected from the best quality rough and loose stones. The top half is bare stone, and the rough stone has not been polished well, and there is no luster, so it is hidden at the bottom of the box, but as long as it is polished and carved, it will inevitably shine. Niangniang Mo saw that the number of gems in this box was not much, but it was already all the weight of high-grade gemstones in the capital this year and next year. That is to say, this year and next year, in the capital, except for the hands of Niangniang, there will never be such high-quality rubies, emeralds, sapphires, opals, golden green cat's eyes and amber. We only have the share in the hands of the greedy mother. I also want to congratulate my mother, congratulate my mother, celebrate my birthday, and share the year. ”

Liu Shuxing's tone was light, with a smile, and he said this unhurriedly, and the voice that was still inhaling for the gem just now gradually became smaller, and when Liu Guifei finished speaking, the field was so quiet that the needle could be heard.

And this kind of silence is different from the moment of surprise and stagnation when everyone saw the gem, and the silence of waiting for Liu Guifei to deal with it after leaving the silk flowers, this kind of stillness is more strange and turbulent.

Fools can understand what Concubine Liu just said.

And Song Mier, who was sitting above, had already sunk his face when Liu Shuxing began to introduce the gems, and when Liu Shuxing slowly added and finished speaking, Song Mier's eyebrows, which usually looked at him with a smile, had turned into a piece of ice.

Don't say that you knew in the letter given by the second sister that Zhen Yige robbed Qinghui Pavilion of the supply of gems last month. Yes, not to buy at a high price, nor to negotiate with the place where the gems are supplied, but to grab.

It was the business that Qinghui Pavilion had already negotiated, and the deposit had been paid, so he had to take the gems to pay the final payment, but in half a day, the old gemstone supplier told the principal who went to buy the gems on behalf of Qinghui Pavilion, and this batch of six gems was lost on the way.

The supplier was crying so much, his legs couldn't stand steadily, and he kept talking about paying money to Qinghui Pavilion, the director of Qinghui Pavilion saw that an old man in his fifties was so sad, and he couldn't bear it, so he quickly asked Song Miyi's second sister Song Miyi to explain the cause and effect, and Song Miyi also felt that this was an unintentional mistake, so he only asked for a refund of the deposit.

However, Qinghui Pavilion did not get the supply of gems this year, which means that this year, Qinghui Pavilion has to sell the collections that were not sold before to meet the market, or it can only bear the reality of a large reduction in share and loss of funds.

In fact, there was originally more than such a gemstone supplier, but this supplier has cooperated with Qinghui Pavilion for many years, and the quality of the gemstones is excellent, and the gems taken out this time are even more top-notch. And other suppliers of corresponding gemstones, naturally look for another place.

Who knew there would be such a fork in the way. Ready-made gems may not be found. Unless you go to sea to look for it overseas. But Song Miyi is willing, and his father and mother are unwilling to go to Song Miyi. Song Miyi was itchy for a long time, so he had to send a caravan and stayed, but this caravan came and went, and it would definitely not come back this year, and it would only survive this year.

Song Miyi talked about this matter, but to express to Song Mier her depression that she couldn't go to sea, and in order to enhance her misery, she also explained the type, quality, type and quantity of those gems one by one.

And now, the gems that Liu Shuxing took out are clearly the same as the gems mentioned by his second sister in the letter!

Could this be a coincidence?

Just because Liu Shuxing said such a thing in such a tone and gesture, he would believe that the box gem was not the box in front of him? The loss of that gem has nothing to do with Liu Shuxing?!

What is missing! It was clear that Liu Shuxing snatched this gem from the hands of Qinghui Pavilion!

What Zhen Yi Pavilion, Zhen Yi Pavilion and Qinghui Pavilion have always been well water and do not violate river water, most of the time, Zhen Yi Pavilion also has to respect Qinghui Pavilion for two points, how can it be good to rob people of the business that has been negotiated? It's all a pretext! And with such despicable means! The gem dealer is a liar too!

But that's not all.

The most important thing, no, the worst thing.

1. What did Liu Shuxing rely on to get this box gem?

If you borrow the power of the Liu family, the responsibility is still in the Liu family. It's terrible to be afraid that it is the power of the queen's birthday, and on the grounds of the queen's birthday, I got this box of gems, if it is passed on, people will not say how Zhen Yige is a dog slave, but only how the queen looted the people's fat and people's ointment, for her own birthday, she wants so many expensive gems that she can't use up in her life. Even if it is rumored that Liu Guifei bought it, others will only say that the Song family is powerful, the queen is bullying, and even the grandfather's family will not let go, to what extent was Liu Guifei bullied by the queen's mother, the most flamboyant and gorgeous lady in the capital in the past, when she arrived in the palace, she actually wanted to bow her head to a little queen who did not have a good name? How vicious should this queen be? How bad should this Song family be?

Second, Liu Shuxing got this box of gems, did he buy it, or did he do it in another way?

If you buy it, then it's okay to say, but if you want to come over directly, and then buckle this head to the queen's head, and this gem is really in your hands in the end, don't you only have bitter water to swallow in your stomach? Isn't your reputation going to be bad on the outside? has only been in the palace for more than a year, and the queen is so arrogant, and she will have it in the future? How can she be the mother of the nation?

And if those dependents of the Liu family have already written the admonition and excerpts, just waiting for themselves to take over this box of gems today?

3. This gem is the amount of gems in the capital for two years, and the ladies of the capital, do you guess if you want to tear yourself apart.

No matter how this gem came from or who gave it, now that it is in their own hands, the ladies and girls in the capital have no new jewelry available. Those who can use these gems are all families who are either rich or noble, and this time, they will simply offend the clan, nobles, court wives, and ladies of the capital. Who doesn't know how crazy it can be for a woman to go without new jewelry for two years?!

Fourth, do you pick it up or don't pick it up? What should I do if I take it?

If you take it yourself, do you want to say that it was originally because she coveted this box of gems, hinting at Liu Guifei, so Liu Shuxing had to aggrievedly collect gems for herself? Even if it is Liu Shuxing and the Liu family who take the initiative, if they really accept this gem, they can still say that they are greedy. Even if it's a birthday gift, it can also be a stumbling block.

But if he doesn't accept it, it means that the contradiction between the queen and the concubine is irreconcilable, and the Liu family and the Song family are already on the same page, what can be the reason? Isn't it the emperor's favor and... power?

If it was because of his own reasons, the Song family was given a bad name, how could he go back and face his father? Facing the clansmen who have been maintaining the reputation of the Song family all their lives? Or is it because of this unfounded reason?

Besides, if he doesn't take it, Song Mier is sure in his heart that according to Liu Shuxing's temperament, the next sentence will definitely mock himself for being cowardly as a mouse, in his own palace, at his birthday banquet, he has no courage, and in the future, he will be in this harem, what will he do to suppress others?

But if you really take it, what should you do with this box of gems?

Every step is a trap waiting for you.

Song Mier's heart also cooled down little by little.
