Chapter XVI Checking
"How's the check?" For a few days, the people sent out by Song Jinyan found hundreds of palace utensils outside the palace. Some utensils are clearly placed in the palace, and the exact same objects have appeared among the people again.
Song Jinyan ordered people to list and check the artifacts that had been found one by one before making plans.
One by one, the utensils found in the folk with the same shape were brought out, and they were filled with the entire imperial study. Father-in-law Su on the side couldn't help but be stunned, who had such great ability.
"Are all the devices in the palace recorded in storage?" Song Jinyan turned his head and asked.
Gonggong Su nodded: "Whether it is foreign diplomatic relations or the annual tribute from various places, as long as it enters the palace, it will be included in the national treasury." One by one, there will never be a mistake. And each item will be appraised by an appraisal officer before it is put into storage, and when it is put into storage, it must be genuine. β
Song Jinyan frowned and nodded: "But if the same utensils appear in the palace and among the people, one of them must be fake." β
Gonggong Su thought for a while and said, "Could it be that someone had bad intentions in the manufacture or transportation of the utensils, secretly wrote down the shape and size of the utensils, found a place to fake, and lied about the royal family's things for profit?" β
However, the truth of the matter was far beyond Song Jinyan's expectations, and after careful investigation, the connoisseur determined that the things in the palace were fakes.
"What, Wen Pinjian, you make it clear." Song Jinyan raised his eyebrows, and a cold light appeared in his eyes.
Wen Zeyan nodded: "Your Majesty, please look at this jade bottle-"
Looking at Wen Zeyan's hand, Song Jinyan only listened: "The authenticity of this jade bottle, the original history of a hundred years, if it is an ordinary jade, it will have long been dull, and this jade bottle is made of the best Lantian jade, the characteristic of Lantian jade is that the jade is warm and moist, and it will last for a long time, but it will reveal a faint blue." β
Wen Zeyan's words changed: "However, although this jade has the shape of the original, it has no god, and the jade body itself only has ordinary yellow light, not the unique blue light of Lantian jade." There is no doubt that this thing is a fake. β
Song Jinyan opened his mouth slightly in surprise, only to hear Wen Zeyan pointing to the neatly placed objects, and telling the reasons why they were fakes one by one.
Song Jinyan's eyes emitted a hint of gloom, looking at Wen Zeyan, Sen said coldly: "Could it be that I have so many things, and they have been exchanged for princes by tanuki unknowingly?" β
Wen Zeyan was stunned for a moment: "If the emperor wants to know, he needs to check none of the utensils one by one, I'm afraid it will take some time." β
Song Jinyan frowned: "How long will it take?" β
Wen Zeyan changed his mind: "If it is a minister, I am afraid it will take more than a month, Weichen is brave, recommend an apprentice, with him on the side, half a month should be able to complete." β
Song Jinyan nodded, and already had a rough judgment in his heart - this matter is not trivial.
Inside the Ylang Temple.
"Today is really a bad move - it actually made her retreat again." Lan Ruoxuan was wearing a cherry-colored flowing cloud pleated skirt, and her indescribable delicate and beautiful posture made it difficult to associate her with such a fierce tone.
"This time the matter is indeed the negligence of the concubine, I didn't expect-"
Lan Ruoxuan waved her hand, the matter between Kou Yunwu and General Nahou was an old thing, and she only knew a thing or two because of her proximity to Kou Shu, and even she forgot about this link, how could Concubine Qiong know?
It's just that. Lan Ruoxuan always felt that something was weird, Concubine Qiong and herself shot at Kou Shu several times, it was like a fist hitting cotton, soft and weak, and it was easily resolved, whether Kou Shu was really lucky, or she hid deeply. Lan Ruoxuan was distracted.
"Yes, today's matter, originally I thought that so many devices outside the palace flowed out, and there were always one or two from the queen's palace, and when the time came, we would beat the water dogs, how did I thinkββ"
Lan Ruoxuan's words changed: "Wasn't the thing outside the palace sent out by you?" β
Concubine Qiong was stunned: "The devices outside the palace have been checked now, there are more than 100 pieces, how can the concubine have such great ability." I just heard about itβ"
"So you're just playing on the subject?" Lan Ruoxuan sneered.
Concubine Qiong showed a hint of embarrassment and nodded.
With a cold snort, Lan Ruoxuan did not speak.
As the spring days pass, the summer lotus flowers in the pond are blooming one after another, and the lotus leaves are spread all over the pond. Kou Shu stood by the lotus pond, fiddling with the lotus canopy in her hand, and watched with interest.
The ripples on the side are a little anxious, and now all the palaces are busy counting whether the belongings in their palaces are missing, if there are any that seem to have been dropped, they can take them to the Appreciation Pavilion for Wen to take a look. If it is judged to be a fake by Wen Pin, you can go to the treasury to choose a new ornament to replace, and many palace concubines run to the appreciation pavilion every day in order to change a few ornaments they like. But her own lady did not seem to care at all.
"Niangniang, you can also go and take a look - in our palace, I see a few things, and they look like they have been dropped."
Kou Shu snorted and laughed, Ripple was so young that he hadn't even seen a few pieces of good jade pendants, but he saw the way to Kou Shu in his palace.
Feeling Kou Shu's teasing, Ripple was also a little embarrassed: "I really don't understand, let's take some things and send them to the Appreciation Pavilion, if people find out that what is in our Changle Palace is actually a fake." Doesn't it make people laugh off their big teeth? β
There is some truth in this, Kou Shu nodded: "You find a few capable eunuchs and carry the things to the Appreciation Pavilion with me." β
At the door of the Appreciation Pavilion, a few little maids stood with their hands down, saw Kou Shu, and then glanced at the things held by a few eunuchs behind them, and stepped forward with some hesitation, "Queen Mother, it's very unfortunate that Wen Pinjian went out." I'm afraid that no one will be able to read your calligraphy and painting for a while. "At the door of the Appreciation Pavilion, a little guy said.
"What about the other tastings?" Ripple frowned, a little unwilling. It was not easy for me to persuade the queen to come, and I didn't want to go home like this.
When the little girl heard this, her waist bent lower, and she said with a sad face: "The queen mother sent calligraphy and paintings, Huang Pinjian can only taste porcelain, Song Pinjian specializes in jade, and only Wen Pinjian can understand it." β
Kou Shu waved her hand, whether it was true or not, it was just the self-deception of the world, she didn't care. If it weren't for the ripples opening her mouth just now, she wouldn't have thought of running this trip at all. Now that it's empty, I don't mind much. Turn around and leave with ripples,
"The queen is slowβ" A voice came from behind Kou Shu, and her voice was as warm as jade, and it sounded extremely comfortable.
Kou Shu paused, and couldn't help but look back.
