Chapter 95: The Gift
Qin Yuanxi stared at the beads for a long time, and suddenly lost interest.
King Konin was visibly fascinated by the treasure he had brought, and only cared about his own enthusiastic explanations.
"Xi'er, this night pearl is precious, I can't find a second one in the whole world, it's been more than thirty years since our royal family, and it was your grandmother who gave it ......to me when she got married."
The aftertaste of the expression seemed to have returned to the time when he was young and high-spirited in a blink of an eye, but Qin Yuanxi frowned.
She pursed her lips and began to peel it short, "Grandmother sent it?" This kind of good thing, I'm afraid it wasn't my aunt and grandmother who took it by themselves for the first time. ”
The atmosphere condensed for a while, and King Ning stretched out his hand and tapped it on Qin Yuanxi's head.
"What do you know, girl, your grandmother agreed later, what does it have to do with sending me?"
King Ning continued to recall, "Actually, there is still a lot of history on this bead, at first it was a tribute from foreign vassals, and it was given to me by your grandmother to treasure, and then it was coquettishly asked by your Aunt Wanyan. Then your grandmother had her birthday, and Wan Yan sent it back, and then your aunt got married and made a dowry, and your aunt finally gave it to me as a birthday gift for my forty years......"
The words were twisted and turned, and King Ning spoke smoothly, which made the two people next to him dizzy, and they didn't have a clue for a while.
But Yan Xuanjie noticed that one of them was wrong, and couldn't help but interject, "Is it my grandmother's dowry for my mother?" Then why didn't my mother leave me ......?"
"Where were you then? Your mother didn't like these objects very much, so she sent them to me. King Ning explained, with a smile on his face, obviously very satisfied with his niece's approach.
Yan Xuanjie realized this, although she was a little uneven, but she had no choice but to admit it.
Seeing that Qin Yuanxi didn't speak, King Ning handed the bead in front of her, "How?" My aunt and grandmother will give you this good thing and apologize to you, so don't worry about the previous incident. ”
Qin Yuanxi was still silent, no matter how greedy she was for money and pleasure, how could the hatred in her heart be so easily written off?
What's more, Qin Yuanxi didn't think much of this bead, and if he made up his mind to make his aunt and grandmother pay the price, he couldn't compromise on it.
The grievance was uneven for a while, and the more tricky her mouth became, "Isn't it just a broken green bead, my aunt and grandmother can't help but despise Xi'er too much......"
"What broken beads?" The treasure he couldn't ask for was evaluated like this, and King Ning's face was angry again.
She reprimanded with a straight face, "You girl doesn't know what to do, this is the only one, you don't know how precious it is." ”
"This is also the emperor's house, if it was forty years ago, our family was poor, don't talk about these, I'm afraid you will see a few copper plates and put them in the mourning hall,"
Yan Xuanjie, who doesn't look down on this kind of object very much, trembled in her heart when she saw this kind of thing at this time, and persuaded slowly, "Yes, this bead looks really beautiful, it's a baby, why does my cousin say that?" ”
Qin Yuanxi secretly disdained the aesthetics of the two in his heart, and made up his mind that he did not want to be with them.
"What's a good treasure, it's just a little green, it's big, it's weird, it looks scared to death, I don't know which mausoleum those foreign feudal lords stole from......"
The faces of the grandfather and grandson froze at the same time.
"What kind of mausoleum thief, Xi'er, you are really... Rat-eyed. ”
King Ning was angry for a while, and he actually put a hat on the emperor's granddaughter for using such a word.
Qin Yuanxi was also angry in his heart, he couldn't bear it, and finally couldn't help but raise his head and sarcastically, "Auntie, have you seen a few treasures, and you just said that I am a mouse?" ”
"Have you ever seen a transparent bead that big like this? Have you ever seen the blood-red one? Have you ever seen a purple bead? ”
"Xi'er is just a county lord, and she doesn't dare to compete with her aunt and grandmother, but she also collects all of these, what's so beautiful about a broken green bead?"
Maybe he was really angry in his heart, Qin Yuanxi's entire face was full of pride and chased after King Ning, who was complacent just now.
But as everyone knows, she was in a hurry to report to her home, and made a few of her precious beads clear in front of the wolf.
The original dissatisfaction and anger on King Ning's face gradually dissipated, until finally his eyes were radiant.
"Xi'er, you... You say you have this kind of night pearl on you? More than one? ”
"That's self-...... Yet..."Qin Yuanxi saw the envy on his aunt's face, and raised his chin arrogantly.
It wasn't until she finished her sentence that she realized that the situation was wrong.
Isn't she a sheep in the mouth of a tiger?
Originally, Qin Yuanxi understood that these good things could not be shown, so as early as two years ago, she didn't get a bead to proclaim, especially her aunt and grandmother who were greedy for money, she never mentioned it.
But now it's good, she has a quick mouth to clean up the bottom of the house.
Seeing the almost greedy smile on his aunt's face, Qin Yuanxi only felt that it was too late, and sighed in his heart that he was stupid.
I struggled to get up, but it was obvious that the restraints around my waist were tighter.
King Ning tilted his head, his face was excited and half suspicious, "I said Xi'er, where did you find so many beads as a county lord?" Better than your grandmother? ”
"Uh...... Auntie, you heard me wrong, I didn't... No..., I lied ......" Qin Yuanxi was apprehensive in his heart, and the smile on his face was very reluctant.
"No?" King Ning's face turned cold, "Xi'er, are you playing me like a monkey?" Did you hear what your sister said? ”
In the last words, he turned his head and asked Yan Xuanjie.
Yan Xuanjie deliberately avoided it, and when she met the stern eyes, she suddenly lost her courage, so she had to whisper, "I...... I heard that..., my cousin said she had a lot of ...... The pearl of the night. ”
"Well, Xi'er, what else do you say? Do you really think I'm a fool? ”
Where is Qin Yuanxi willing to tell the truth, still trying to cover it up, "Aunt and grandmother heard it wrong, where did Xi'er have that ability, just now she was just lying, yes...... Pillars, red pillars......"
The smile on her face faded without a trace after facing King Shangning's increasingly gloomy face, until finally her voice became quieter, and she herself felt that this was too much to take people for fools.
King Ning had already run out of patience, and reached out to break Qin Yuanxi's cheek, "Don't try to quibble, hurry up and say, where are the beads?" ”
“…… Those are not in the palace. Now that the matter has come to this, Qin Yuanxi has to explain in a whisper.
Anyway, she made a plan, even if she told her family background, she wouldn't give one away.
King Ning showed his disbelief and frowned, "Not in the palace?" Where's that? Don't expect to lie to me, little girl. ”
Qin Yuanxi blinked, "In the Eastern Capital..."
"Eastern Capital?" King Ning didn't figure out why she said she was in the Eastern Capital for a while.
Silent for a moment, she proven: "I remember that your caravan of Yunxi Palace is in the Eastern Capital?" ”
"Yes, aunt and grandmother, you are so smart, the Xi'er caravan is in the Eastern Capital, and at the same time there are some assets."
Qin Yuanxi hurriedly opened his mouth, and his words were intentional, and he called Yan Xuanjie secretly sighing and admiring.
