Concubine Gao hesitated for a moment, but still handed the bead to Gao Mucheng.

Gao Mucheng picked up the beads, rubbed them in his hand a few times, and reluctantly put them down

"This pearl is shiny black, and there is not a single blemish, which is very rare. It is a new tribute to the Pearl Cliff this year, and a total of eighteen are penetrated by gold wires, and the dragon and phoenix are auspicious topaz pendants. ”

"Please also ask Master Honghui to open the light, take the meaning of black gold, and have the effect of warding off evil spirits and calming the gods", Gao Mucheng said, pointing to the string of beads hanging on his chest, "The official family is benevolent and filial, and sent the string of beads to the Queen Mother's palace." ”

Mu Cheng was good at collecting beads when he was young, and when he fell in love at first sight, he asked the Queen Mother for several times, and finally the Queen Mother said that she had already been with others, so she gave up. This kind of black pearl is very rare, and Mu Cheng recognized it when he saw it. ”

The Queen Mother listened and beckoned to Gao Mucheng, Gao Mucheng walked over obediently, and respectfully handed the pearl to the Queen Mother with both hands.

"Ah, the mourning family remembers, there is indeed such a string. Not to mention whether this bead is precious or not, the big black and big gold are not suitable for the little girl's family, so I didn't allow it. Later......"

The Queen Mother said, hesitated for a moment, and looked at Concubine Xiaogao, "Later, for a while, you were not always sick and crooked, saying that you always heard wild cats barking at night, and you couldn't sleep well when you lit Ning Shenxiang, so I sent Mama Gu to send it to you." ”

The little concubine Gao remembered it at this time, and her face changed slightly, "Queen Mother, the concubine is grateful to the Queen Mother Longen, and when she is good, she put this bead into the cage, and she doesn't dare to take it out and use it casually." ”

Later, the county lord got married, and all the sisters in the palace added makeup to the county lord. The concubine rummaged through the cage and didn't find anything good, so she thought of this string of beads, took it as a makeup thing, and gave it away along with the reward of the official family and the queen mother. ”

"It is really wrong for the concubine to transfer the queen mother's reward to the county lord without authorization."

She said and looked at Gao Mucheng, "This young lady, her eyes are good, unlike me, the bead is pinched in my hand, and I don't recognize it." These eighteen identical black pearls are hard to find. ”

"But a single one is not so unusual. Even if it is the county lord's, it is common for this gold wire to be scattered on the ground if it is not strong. Today is the New Year's Eve, and the officials have said that peace is precious. ”

When Gao Mucheng heard this, he chuckled, "What Niangniang said is true, Mu Cheng just saw the object that he had been happy for a long time, and he didn't hold back for a while." ”

As she spoke, she turned around and looked at Chen Wangshu, "County Lord, this bead Mu Cheng likes it so much, maybe stay?" ”

Chen Wangshu felt the gaze of everyone, and sighed a few times in his heart, this person should be impressed for three days.

Gao Mucheng's artillery battle, which has not been seen for a while, has really grown.

None of the people present are stupid, even if it proves that the beads belong to Chen Wangshu? She can completely excuse it and say that it was accidentally lost and stolen...... Or maybe the gold thread is broken. The beads are lying on the ground, and the eighth prince is stepping on them himself, who can blame him?

Whether it was thrown on purpose or not, it is a matter of opinion.

Chen Wangshu turned the jade bracelet on his wrist.

If she wants to defend herself, she has finished telling them, what else is she going to say?

Chen Wangshu smiled, narrowed his eyes, stood up, and asked curiously, "What do the Seventh Imperial Princesses seem to be looking for?" ”

As she spoke, she shook her skirt, the rings on her body clanged, but nothing fell.

The people next to her were confused, Qin Zao'er, who was sitting next to Chen Wangshu, was already angry, she could be regarded as understanding, why Gao Mucheng wanted to sit next to Chen Wangshu, she was here to plant the blame and hide the beads on Chen Wangshu's body.

If Chen Wangshu was stupid, he stood up and talked back about this matter, I am afraid that if it is not a black pearl that is exactly the same as the sole of the Eighth Prince, it will fall down with a crackle.

"Although this black pearl is also superb, it is not in the string that Concubine Gao gave me. Therefore, if the Seventh Princess wants it, she should ask her master. ”

After Chen Wangshu finished speaking, he walked to the main hall and saluted slightly to the little concubine, "Wangshu was frightened a few days ago, and dreamed of strange snakes every day, thanks to the beads given by Concubine Gao, I was able to sleep." ”

"Wangshu turned the beads while reciting Buddhist scriptures silently in his heart. However, I found that there is one thing, the Seventh Princess is afraid that she has remembered that the string of beads is not eighteen, but sixteen. ”

"Speaking of which, there's a beautiful talk in this!"

The official on the seat came to the spirit, "Oh, there is a story in this?" ”

The official said, beckoning to Yan Jue, "You kid, why are you sitting far away?" I was looking for people to drink, but I didn't see you. It's New Year's night, and I've always had to test my sons' homework. ”

"Speaking of which, I've even seen Xiaoba's swordsmanship, and it's time to watch Jue'er in a while."

After the official finished speaking, he pointed at Yan Jue again and said to the Queen Mother, "This kid has grown up in a flash, and when he was a child, he was still peeing in my arms, and he was bold." Now that he knows the etiquette, he won't talk about this kung fu, and Enke also participated in the imperial examination. ”

"If you win the top prize, then you will compare my sons to me."

The Queen Mother was slightly stunned, then covered her mouth and laughed, "In your eyes, Brother Jue is good in everything." Looking at the book and telling the story, what are you doing? Okay, okay, one by one, don't pestle them all. ”

"It's a New Year's holiday, don't let the wine and food get cold."

Chen Wangshu lowered his eyes, glanced at the Queen Mother, and then said, "Zhuya County is rich in pearls, mostly white powder, and very little black. This year, when I started the mussels, I fished them down, and I actually fished out three giant mussels, which were snow-white and flawless. One look at it is that there is a treasure. ”

The fishermen opened it and saw that each of the three giant mussels had six black pearls, round and flawless, with a soft luster. The Buddha has eighteen worlds, which are six roots, six consciousnesses, six dusts, and the bead strings are mostly eighteen sons, which contain Zen. ”

As soon as these eighteen black pearls came out, the Zhuya County Guard immediately set them as tributes and handed them over to a pearl girl named Nange to nourish them, and they were strung with gold threads. As soon as this black pearl arrived, Nan Ge was happy and sad. ”

"It's not difficult to understand the joy, but what about the sorrow? It turned out that Nange's mother was seriously ill and would die soon. Lang Zhong prescribed a prescription to use Jiuhei as a medicine, and Nange found a cuttlefish sheath, black sesame seeds, and black soybeans...... Eight of the nine kinds are collected, but the most important medicine primer is missing. ”

Nange was pure and filial, and secretly took a bead and gave her a mother to treat her illness. If there is one less tribute, how can the county guard not be angry? Of course, it is necessary to cure the great sin of Nange. But at this time, Master Honghui said, I am a Buddha with compassion. ”

"This pearl is not a Buddha bead, but it is precisely because of the pure filial piety of Nange that this pearl has a sense of Zen. Seventeen pieces were not perfect, Master Honghui took one and offered it to the temple. The remaining sixteen were strung into a string, and the dragon and phoenix double round jade pendant fell, which not only fulfilled the filial piety, but also combined with the meaning of the eighteen sons. ”
