Chapter 187: Benefits
Yun Xiang is good at hidden weapons, not here. The cow hair needle she uses now is still not delicate enough, and it is not very desirable. And she also wants to make more hidden weapons for self-defense, such as rainstorm pear flower needles and other things to defend the people around her.
Having made up her mind, Yun Xiang went to look at other things. There are many kinds of things in Xiao Yan's underground treasure house, from weapons to books, from calligraphy and painting to musical instruments, as well as all kinds of gold and jade gems, antiques and miscellaneous toys, which are simply staggering.
"Senior sister, this is good, you pick a few things and go back to make a dowry." Situ Liufeng brought over a box of pearl jewelry, not to mention the color, it was not small, and it was very round. "You take this, is your sister more than just a good one? Just for her. ”
Yun Xiang saw that it was a pearl phoenix, and the whole body of the pearl phoenix was woven with pale pink beads about the size of three or four inches, with a pale golden bead with a diameter of five centimeters in her mouth, and three strings of pink millet beads below. There is a sea in the extreme south of Great Xia, but Xihua is a purely landlocked country. These pearls are clearly distinguishable as sea pearls, or saltwater pearls. The pearl is so well-proportioned and the workmanship is so fine, the price must be expensive.
Thinking of her sister, Yun Xiang was not polite, and directly took the pearl phoenix into her pocket. "That's good, I like it." If this pearl phoenix appeared at the ceremony, it would definitely cause a sensation. But to be honest, it's not small, it's heavy, and it usually only fits in a box.
"Now, junior sister, this is what I gave you." Situ Liufeng stuffed a small fan to Yun Xiang, "You see, but you like it?" ”
Yun Xiang took the fan. I just feel that the fan is a little heavy. She slowly opened it, only to find that it was a folding fan embroidered with gold and silver thread. Although it was only the size of her two palms, it was a fan woven of silver thread. Embroidered with an atmospheric peony. The end is a local tyrant to the extreme. "Thank you, brother, I like it very much."
"If you really want to thank me, why don't you roast me a leg of lamb in the evening." Situ Liufeng suggested with a smile.
Yun Xiang nodded, "This is easy to do, so let's go out?" ”
"You only got a hairpin for your sister? It's too good to save my brother. He brought over the small wooden box he had just held, "Take all these and keep them as a dowry." ”
"That's too much!" Yun Xiang shook her head. This box of pearl jewelry, all of which are worth a lot of money, especially the one in which is a string of ink-colored pearls the size of a dragon's eye. I'm afraid it's not an exaggeration to say that it's worth a lot of money. She used to only think that her ancestors had left a lot of things, and they were also valuable. As you see, it can't be compared with the treasure house of the senior brother.
"Take it, or keep it as a dowry. It's okay to give it away. It doesn't matter. Xiao Yan's voice came. The man strode in. "It's all dead, it's not a big deal."
Yun Xiang was not pretentious, only nodded and thanked him, and then put it away. "After receiving a heavy gift from my senior brother, I can't just forget it. My brother likes to look at the stars, so I'll give him a good thing to see the stars. ”
Xiao Yan asked with interest, "What is it?" I always have my neck tilted back on weekdays, and I'm really tired. ”
Yun Xiang smiled. "Senior brother, don't worry, you just need to find me a few craftsmen. If only I could remodel the top floor of your stargazing attic. ”
"It's a small thing, I'll arrange it when I go out. But now we have to get out quickly, I have something to explain. "Xiao Yan was originally 'facial paralysis', so he could only guess his emotions from the tone of his voice.
Yun Xiang and Situ Liufeng heard him say solemnly, and followed him to the study.
"Just now there was news from the palace that His Majesty is likely to summon Yun Xiang." Xiao Yan frowned and looked at Yun Xiang, "Your father has improved the grain seeds, and now Great Xia has implemented it." Needless to say, you also know how important food is to a country, right? ”
Yun Xiang nodded, "They want to get grain seeds from me?" ”
Xiao Yan nodded, "That's right." But you don't have to bear it, just say what you have to say. With me, I didn't dare to do anything to you. ”
Yun Xiang's heart was a little warm, and she said with a smile, "I really can't give this grain seed." If nothing else, my family is still in Daxia. My father was also an official in Great Xia. Now that the two countries are on good terms, it's just that, if the situation is bad one day, I'm afraid I will be beaten into a traitor. ”
"You're right." Xiao Yan nodded, "I am familiar with the people of the royal family, and today's personality is good, but it won't be good." But some princes inevitably want this credit. ”
"Senior brother, I think we will inevitably have to shed some blood. If they don't get any benefit, they won't be satisfied. Situ Liufeng sneered twice, "It's all greedy guys." ”
"Don't generalize." Xiao Yan stroked the corner of his clothes, "As long as you don't make any big things like rebellion in the palace, I can keep you safe." ”
Yun Xiang thought for a moment and asked, "Senior brother, you can get to the position you are now, it must be not just because you can divinate small things and the like, right?" Will you measure the fortune of the country? ”
Xiao Yan rarely gently hooked the corners of his mouth, "Yes." But it can only be measured in the next two years. ”
Yun Xiang knew that Xiao Yan's status in Xihua was very high, but it was not very stable. If the prince competes for the throne, he is likely to become the first cannon fodder to be sacrificed. After all, no one wants to hear from him that someone else is the next emperor.
"Senior brother, have you ever thought about going back to Great Xia?" Yun Xiang felt that this senior brother was good, and wanted to dig the foot of the wall, "You are so rich, and you have the ability, you don't want to be a national teacher, it's good to do something, or don't do anything, just enjoy it is enough." ”
Xiao Yan shook his head, "This is what I promised, the unjust case of my Xiao family can be retried back then, and it was advocated by His Majesty and Prince Li." That's why I'm going to be here for eight years, and now I have four years to go. ”
No wonder Prince Li was able to get a letter from his senior brother. "Senior brother, don't worry, if they really want some benefits, I won't let them down." After all, Xiao Yan still has to be here for four years, and it would be really bad if he pushed him into an embarrassing situation because of himself.
It's just that she wants some benefits, Yun Xiang chuckled, there are so many things in her space that can fool people. But she couldn't give away such things as food, and weapons or anything else were even more impossible. If you really meet one day, you will become a fool who sends 'bullets' to the enemy.
"Alright, alright!" Situ Liufeng suddenly interrupted the conversation between Yun Xiang and Xiao Yan, "Yun Xiang, is it time to prepare dinner?" When you go to the palace, you can rest assured that I will give you some good things for you to carry with you to ensure that you will not suffer losses! ”
Yun Xiang saw him sinister and knew what good things they were. It is nothing more than a good medicine for all kinds of yin people he produces. "Okay, then you can prepare more, I may really need it." (To be continued......)
