"Shen Chun is the first, Yao Minghui is the second, and Ji Yun is the third." Yan Fang deliberately pondered for a while before answering.

Qiu Qitong smiled slightly and said, "That's right." Father-in-law Yan, as long as you can take out nine things that are particularly meaningful like suspected immortal objects now, you can exchange them for nine suspected immortal objects here with me. ”

"Master, you see, which nine things that are as special as suspected immortals are exchanged for the nine suspected immortals in Dean Qiu?" Yan Fang immediately turned his head to look at Xiao Xuanliang and asked in a low voice.

"The participants in this poetry contest are all students, so it's more appropriate to reward them with school supplies, just exchange the nine pieces of ink jade inkstones I personally fired the year before last." Xiao Xuanliang said softly.

"Yes, I'll go get it." After Yan Fang finished speaking, he directly jumped on the spot and went in the direction of the palace.

After about a quarter of an hour, he returned to his place, with an extra burden in his hand.

He untied the burden first and showed Xiao Xuan a look.

Inside the baggage, it was the nine pieces of ink jade inkstones that Xiao Xuanliang just said.

Xiao Xuanliang's eyes were a little reluctant, and he reached out and touched the nine pieces of ink jade inkstones.

They are made of the finest black jade, and the outer sides and edges are inlaid with purple gold moire, which looks very atmospheric.

This kind of ink jade inkstone, even if it is not made by Xiao Xuanliang himself, but made by an ordinary folk craftsman, at least it can be worth thousands of taels of silver each.

And Xiao Xuanliang rarely makes things by himself, and when he does this occasionally, the things he makes are often given to his relatives and juniors or his most trusted courtiers, and they are not circulated among the people at all.

These ink jade inkstones, all made by him personally, are of great significance, if they are sold on the market, at least they can be worth 100,000 taels of silver each!

That's a lot of money.

However, if the remaining nine suspected immortal objects have extraordinary origins, if they are all real immortal objects, I am afraid that they will be rarer, more valuable, and more useful than Yaoguang hairpins.

Therefore, these nine pieces of ink jade inkstones are worth exchanging for these nine suspected immortal objects.

Xiao Qiongzhi stood beside Xiao Xuanliang, turned his head and looked at the nine ink jade inkstones, and asked Xiao Xuanliang in a low voice: "Grandpa, these ink jade inkstones, are you made of those ink jade that the ambassadors of overseas European countries presented five years ago?" ”

"Yes, Zhi'er has good eyesight!" Xiao Xuanliang nodded with a smile.

"I remember that grandpa Tai made things and liked to make twelve pieces in one go, this time, if you take out nine ink jade inkstones and exchange them for nine suspected immortal objects, then, you only have three pieces left, right?" Xiao Qiongzhi asked again.

"Yes. However, it doesn't matter, when I made this ink jade inkstone last time, there was still some ink jade left that I didn't use up, and I should be able to make up for nine more supplies. Xiao Xuanliang said very calmly.

Xiao Qiongzhi didn't believe it.

She reminded Xiao Xuanliang: "Grandpa, I remember the ambassador of the European Union, at that time, he gave you a total of twenty-two palm-sized pieces of ink jade, and you left twelve pieces, planning to make a black jade inkstone when you have time, and gave me another ten pieces." ”

"Ahem, huh? I forgot. Xiao Xuanliang said with some embarrassment.

"It's okay, when I go home later, I'll ask Hongxing to send you the ten pieces of ink jade you gave me, and when it's convenient for you, you can use them to make ink jade inkstones, so that you can still make twelve ink jade inkstones." Xiao Qiongzhi said with a smile.

"Okay." Xiao Xuan raised his head.

Anyway, the twelve pieces of ink jade inkstones he made were originally intended to be New Year's gifts for Xiao Qiongzhi three months later.

This time, it was exchanged for the nine immortal things that Xiao Qiongzhi liked, and it was worth it.

And if Xiao Qiongzhi is willing to take out the ten pieces of ink jade in his hand and give it to him to use as a black jade inkstone, he can still give twelve pieces of black jade inkstone to Xiao Qiongzhi as a New Year's gift three months later, without considering giving Xiao Qiongzhi other things temporarily, to replace the twelve pieces of ink jade inkstone.

At the same time, Yan Fang handed them over to Qiu Qitong after Xiao Xuanliang had inspected the Moyu inkstones.

After Qiu Qitong got it, he took a closer look at it, and exclaimed at Xiao Xuanliang with a shocked expression: "Your Majesty, your nine pieces of ink jade inkstone are really too valuable!" ”

"It's really precious, but I used it to give it to the talented women of this poetry competition, and it can be regarded as a good place to make the best use of them, it's worth it!" Xiao Xuanliang said in a warm voice.

"Then I thank Your Majesty for all the students who won the first place in the poetry contest this time!" Qiu Qitong was very moved, and immediately bowed deeply to Xiao Xuanliang three times.

In his heart, however, he was particularly jealous of the good fortune of all the students who won the first place in the poetry contest this time.

The ink jade inkstone made by Xiao Xuanliang himself is not only worth at least 100,000 taels of silver, but also has an extraordinary significance.

Because, many years ago, he heard that Xiao Xuanliang likes to make pens and inkstones by himself, and the quality has reached the best level, but he has never had the opportunity to see it.

This time, as far as he knew, it was the first time that Xiao Xuanliang had passed on what he had made to the people.

If it weren't for it, Xiao Xuanliang asked Yan Fang to take out the ink jade inkstone in public this time in exchange for nine suspected immortal objects, and personally explained that he was using it to give it to the talented women of this poetry competition, and he would even plan to secretly find all the students who won the first place after awarding the black jade inkstone, and quietly buy these ink jade inkstones.

It's a pity, it's a pity.

Now, everyone present knows that these nine ink jade inkstones were specially used by Xiao Xuanliang to exchange suspected immortal objects and give them to the nine students who won the first place in this poetry competition.

Then, all the students who won the first place and received the Moyu Yan must only have the share of honestly collecting the Moyu Yan, even if he is willing to pay more money, they must not dare to sell it to him quietly, otherwise, it will be disrespecting Xiao Xuanliang's expectations of them.

He reluctantly put down the ink jade inkstone in his hand, took the remaining nine suspected immortal objects, packed them with a baggage, and handed them over to Yan Fang.

Then, he faced all the people of His Excellency Yanyu and announced loudly: "Today's contest has been successfully concluded, and now, we will immediately enter the stage of awarding prizes in the poetry competition." ”

"Before the awards, we first asked our Mr. Zheng, Mr. Nie, and Mr. Xu to explain to us the reasons for selecting the top three poems in the three groups of ancient style, quatrain, and rhythmic poetry of the three grades."

Speaking of this, he looked at Mr. Zheng, smiled and said: "Mr. Zheng, the top three poems in the first-grade ancient style group, you and Mr. Nie and Mr. Xu have the same opinion, so you will explain the reasons why you chose these three poems and poems to all of us!" ”

Old Mr. Zheng Zheng nodded with a smile and said, "No problem." In fact, the poems in the top 10 of the first-grade Gu Feng this time are all very good works, and I chose ......"
