Chapter 267 Auction
What the! Ge Yunzhang's voice was raised, and he frowned and looked at Ji Xiang, as if it was difficult to determine the meaning of that sentence. Auction? What does this mean?
Ji Xiang raised his eyebrows, Huanxi in his arms squinted and yawned, and the kitten stretched out his legs, arched his back, and glanced at Ge Yunzhang. It seems to say, which old thing bothered it.
Stroking the joyful hair, Ji Xiang nodded calmly. Yes, it's an auction. Let the harem ...... No, let those high-ranking families in Kyoto have some blood. She has been out a lot these days, but she has also heard a few cold words.
What Miss Shifu got a golden painting, and which Bodhisattva the queen invited. The people didn't dare to say it, but there were a few civil officials who were not afraid of death, and after a few mentions, they were left aside by His Majesty.
These people all said that they had no money, and the woman felt that everything was fine after being relieved.
She wanted these people to pluck some hair from their bodies and hurt for a while.
Ge Yunzhang was surprised when he understood what he meant, and asked the harem concubines and the minister's family to take out the jewelry for the concubines to buy, and then gave the money to Shencheng.
I have to say that this is a wonderful word that cannot be summed up.
Looking at Ji Xiang carefully, not to mention that Yulongfang has now become the most prosperous shop in Kyoto, even His Majesty is secretly chattering. I came to Ji Xiang this time, hoping that she could contribute more money to solve the urgent need of an empty treasury.
He didn't answer and told Ji Xiang that this matter was decided. Instead, he went back to the palace and asked His Majesty, and then came back to talk to Ji Xiang.
Ji Xiang doesn't like to be arrogant, she knows it, people always like to hit the first bird. Therefore, she will not go to this auction before Xianggong returns, at least, she does not want to organize this auction in her own name.
The next day, under the holy decree, all the ladies took their things to the palace.
Meng Yu'er couldn't dodge it, so she could only pick some inferior ones, planning to take them when the time came. When he saw Ji Xiang, he muttered a few words, very unwilling.
"How did you become so stingy?" Ji Xiang wore decent clothes today, with the purple cloud veil wrapped in the outer layer, with her innocent eyes, it made people feel that the little rabbit had become a spiritual thing, and she was fairy for a while.
She raised her hand, and the jade bracelet slammed into Meng Yu'er's waist, and her jade hook belt was hung with a mandarin duck sachet, and the mandarin duck on it was quite charming. "This is also what the eldest brother gave you?"
She hadn't seen this thing, and Meng Yu'er didn't like to wear it, except for Shi Hui's gift, she really couldn't find any other reason. Meng Yu'er blushed, "No, I embroidered it for Shi Hui." He said it looked so good, and he would wear it all the time, so I thought it would be better to make a pair, so I embroidered one for myself. Inside is borneol and mint, which is perfect for the summer heat. ”
As she spoke, Meng Yu'er raised her head, "If you like it, I can make one for you." ”
Ji Xiang hurriedly shook his head, this is a pair of things, what is she doing with one foot. Seeing that the hour was approaching, she and Meng Yuer hurriedly got into the carriage.
Today, she entered the palace on behalf of the owner of Yulongfang, speaking of which, whether it is in her previous life or in this life, she has never been to the palace.
There was a time in her previous life that she was supposed to go, but her grandmother died, and she felt that there was no end to going alone, so she didn't have that thought.
In Kyoto, she doesn't go out often, so she guards the one-acre three-point field in the yard, and the house is a little house, but at least there is no trouble. Now that she is going to the palace, she is a little nervous, and her flustered palms are sweaty.
As for why, it is impossible to say for a while.
After walking for about half an hour, they finally saw the palace wall.
On the way, I also met acquaintances Xie Keyan and people from the Shi family. Xie Keyan smiled with them, and then lowered the curtain with a heavy heart, and it could be seen that she had been a lot haggard in recent days.
And Mrs. Shi, since she saw her that day, she has restrained a lot, and she didn't rush to find Ji Xiang to claim to be her mother. After thinking about it, she couldn't find a reason, so Ji Xiang thought that she was brewing a bigger conspiracy.
As for the hurried glance, Ji Xiang saw that Shi Zhu.
She is really good-looking and has inherited the good looks of her parents. Ji Xiang touched her cheek, her appearance was really average.
Meng Yu'er leaned over. "Ji Xiang, what's wrong with you?" She poked her head out, but she didn't see anything.
"It's okay, let's get out of the car."
Ren Wusheng drove the car, and when he arrived at the place, he put down a stool. They waited slowly at the palace gate like everyone else.
Miao Ruyi also came, Mrs. Miao was not well, and Li Xiaoniang did something wrong and was grounded. Miao Fu could only let Miao Ruyi come by herself, and behind her was the exceptionally well-behaved Miao Ruyu.
"Ji Ye......" Miao Ru saw that Ji Xiang's eyebrows were dancing, and he was about to rush over with the corner of his skirt. Later, I remembered something, gently grabbed Ruyu, coughed twice, and said in a pretentious gesture: "Mrs. Chen, you are also coming to this royal auction?" ”
Seeing that she had matured a lot, Ji Xiangxin let go of it a little. He nodded, but did not speak. She should be under the Miao rule, and she can't go back on what she said. She smiled at the two of them and went to Xie Keyan's place.
Meng Yu'er sighed, and wiped her face again to tell Miao Ruyi not to be sad. "You also know that Xiangxiang is like this, and besides, you also saw your father's appearance that day......"
This is for Miao Ruyi's goodness, and it can make the relationship less sad in Miao Mansion for the time being.
Miao Ruyu grabbed the clothes of the woman next to her in fear, she glanced at the gorgeous Meng Yu'er, her eyes flickered, and finally shouted in a low voice of grievance: "Sister, I'm hungry." ”
Perhaps because of sympathy for the weak, Meng Yu'er had some pity for Miao Ruyu, and said gently: "Father-in-law Li will take us in later, you wait a while." ”
"You didn't come out of your morning fast?" Meng Yu'er glanced at Ji Xiang over there, and saw Miao Ruyi nodding, and she didn't know what expression to make for a while. "You follow me, Xiangxiang brought a lot of food, let her bring some to you...... Your sister. ”
Ji Xiang always has some snacks in his arms, which is a habit he has developed recently.
In Ling'an, or somewhere else, she's usually busy. In Kyoto, it's very different, and when you are idle all day long, your mouth is light.
Hearing that Miao Ruyi didn't use food, he took out all the things without saying a word. Not much, but enough to fill your stomach. When the meeting arrives, I'm afraid I won't even be able to eat.
She really thinks that to be a noble woman, there are many rules to die.
After chatting for a few words, Gonggong Li came out to lead people in.
Everyone asked the maids around them to present the signs, and when they arrived at Ji Xiang, no one wore clothes, so they gave people the illusion of being bitter outside. Many big ladies didn't know Ji Xiang's appearance, and they all sneered when they saw it at this time, this business flow really couldn't be seen.
Where can a person who was raised by a village woman be honored, what if he can see a little bit of this skin. It's really a butcher general with a village girl shrew, and it's the right one.
Ji Xiang has a good ear, and the ridicule and scolding of those people can naturally be heard. However, there is no need to be angry about anything, they will be trapped in the deep house compound for the rest of their lives, and she won't, this is sadness.
The pattern is different, and it is not a fool's opinion.
Behind the palace wall, there is the road.
The brick-red wall, the flower wall is delicate and beautiful, a few tiles spread out of the sky, and purple flowers look down on this group of innocent or aging women.
The crow magpie flew overhead, and Ji Xiang and Meng Yuer walked last.
Xie Keyan's popularity is really good, and as soon as he came in, he was surrounded by four or five young ladies chattering. Cool is a little unpleasant, especially those people come over with curious eyes when they say a few words.
Miao Ruyi wanted to come over and go together, but was driven forward by Ji Xiang. Meng Yu'er was a little puzzled, "Are you going too far with Ruyi like this?" ”
"It's good for her, stay with me, I don't know who will attract attention." She is Cong Yunpei's side concubine, and she is already jealous, and if she befriends herself again, I am afraid that she will be treated badly.
After walking for about a moment, I entered the Chengde Gate. After walking for half an hour, I arrived at the Fengwei Palace where the queen was.
Ji Xiang muttered in a low voice, how can you not use a sedan chair or carriage for such a long road.
Meng Yuer didn't sweat much, and when the two exchanged heads, a woman as delicate as a lark came to Xie Keyan.
After a while, two more people came in from outside, although Ji Xiang had never seen it, he recognized it by looking at his eyebrows, the woman who was rich and elegant, wearing a smoke-blue long skirt was Liu Yuyi.
I have to say that Liu Yu's lust is a must.
No wonder, after Qiao Sumo left, Liu Yuyi was a famous beauty in Kyoto. Her beauty is domineering, and a single eyebrow can make the enemy collapse.
And next to her was Xie Keyan's mother, Mrs. Xie.
When the two of them came in, they both glanced at Ji Xiang.
Without any emotion and exploration, at the moment of looking at each other, Ji Xiang only felt nervous and did not dare to move.
After a while, Ji Xiang's body lost his numbness.
There were a lot of people in the palace, and Ji Xiang counted forty people casually.
And this still hasn't come together. Before the queen, it was Liu Guifei. She is still noble, and she has a smile on her face that resembles Liu Yuyi, "Xiang'er, good boy, are you here too?" ”
Ji Xiang, who was named, hurriedly stood up, "Guifei Niangniang." ”
"Come on," Concubine Liu didn't care about Ji Xiang's answer at all, she was extraordinarily kind, "I told you that I should be called Aunt Liu." ”
After saying a few words, attracting most of the attention, especially Liu Yuyi, Liu Guifei continued to move forward and sat below the queen's position.
While everyone was whispering, the queen came.
She was majestic, dressed in a golden phoenix, and walked step by step.
Everyone saluted, "Queen Mother, Chitose Chitose Chitose." ”
"Let's be flat."
"Presumably everyone already knows about today's auction. There is not much nonsense in this palace, one by one, the things are palmed, see clearly, set a price, and in the afternoon, it will be presented to people to see, look. After buying, the money will also be sent to Shencheng to protect the health of the people. ”
The queen paused, "Of course, if you fancy something good, you can also buy it on the spot first, and you can take out the money." ”
She glanced at Ji Xiang with deep meaning, this woman's mind is really different, very peculiar.
The first thing, taken out by the little princess, is a set of inlaid agate heads, exquisite workmanship, and is made by a famous craftsman. The things in the palace are naturally exquisite.
As soon as this thing was sold, many ladies rushed to ask for it. Finally, by a fat lady, according to others, it was from the queen's mother's family.
The second one, which is also good, is a box of jewelry. Ji Xiang didn't know the person who gave it, and he was embarrassed to say his name, so he didn't write it down.
……
It took at least two hours to straighten these things up, and she thought it would be auctioned directly, and she slept for a while during this period.
When I woke up again, I saw that the queen's face was not good, and when I asked, it turned out that Mrs. Yu took a hosta and it was done. When it was her turn, she casually took out the new product of Yulongfang, which whitens and removes freckles, and is a kind of mask.
This factory exchange is really good, and it will be new after a while. The people below want it in their hearts, but they are always harder on their lips.
Especially Shi Zhuzhu, "Sister~ Everyone else is taking some genuine goods, but you ...... Isn't it too, too fooling us. ”
