Chapter 90: The Clamour
Because of the queen's thousand autumns, the city is very lively these days, and the lights are everywhere.
The carriage stopped at one of the busiest markets on the street, the Emerald Building, the largest antique shop in the city.
"Isn't this place going to be too expensive?" Yun Zhuyue had heard of this place, but rarely came here to check it out before.
Thinking that they were here to go shopping today to choose a birthday gift for the Queen Mother, Yun Zhuyue felt a little distressed about the silver.
"It's okay, this king takes the money."
Qi Moxiao knew what Yun Zhuyue was worried about, and after answering her with a smile, he took her to the Jade Building.
It's just that there are a lot of people who come to this place today to pick up things, Qi Moxiao took the clouds to go in month by month, and then several waves of people poured in.
Some of them carried the chest, which contained the silver tickets and silver on the counter, and clamored for the treasurer to give them the best treasures.
Looking at the places that sell cloth and antiques upstairs, it seems that many people are also buying.
Yun Zhuyue was a little moved by the liveliness here, and couldn't help but turn around and say to Qi Moxiao: "It seems that there are really enough people in this place, where do we start?" ”
Although it is a gift, it is better to have a plan.
In this way, even if they don't pick the gift they want, they can meet each other within the stipulated time.
Qi Moxiao also swept around the things, in fact, Yun Zhuyue was very wise, because he knew that some of these antiques were left by the dead people of the previous dynasty, and it was unlucky for the queen, so he couldn't send this kind of thing.
Because she usually had contact with the queen, Yun Zhuyue knew that the queen liked ancient paintings and other things, and she also searched around here, but found that the more expensive ancient paintings had been bought.
Since the Jade Building has always been in the name of not selling fakes, Yun can only search for some jade and the like month by month.
The queen has never lacked any clothes and jewelry, and after thinking about it, Yun Zhuyue finally took a fancy to a copper coin tree hanging with gold.
This copper coin tree is sparkling and full of dazzling gold, which is very valuable at first sight.
After asking, he knew that this was made with Huang Finance, and Yun Zhuyue was suddenly a little shocked, and he didn't dare to continue asking.
It's just that from beginning to end, it seems that she is the only one here to hand over the gift, Qi Moxiao has never moved, Yun Zhuyue couldn't help but come to him and sit down, frowning and glancing at him: "Why don't you help me choose." ”
After all, he is not the only one who participates in the queen's birthday ceremony, and Qi Moxiao is also going to go, and when the time comes, their palace will not be able to come up with a decent birthday gift, but they are afraid that they will be laughed at by many people on the palace.
From beginning to end, Qi Moxiao was silently watching her choose gifts, seeing that she was so serious, sometimes angry, sometimes thoughtful, her appearance was very cute, but she was more docile than she was fierce before.
At this moment, hearing Yun Zhuyue say this, he pursed his lips and smiled: "It's not that it can't be done, it's just that the copper money tree made of gold has been in this place for so long but no one dares to buy it, do you know why?" ”
Hearing Qi Moxiao say this, Yun Zhuyue knew that there must be a mystery in this, so she was not in a hurry, sat down next to Qi Moxiao, poured a cup of tea, and asked with some curiosity: "Why is this?" ”
Aren't the people of the court paying attention to an arrogant luxury when giving gifts? What's more, this is the queen Qianqiu, how can they not send something valuable.
But seeing Qi Moxiao's eyes flashing, he stared at the golden copper coin tree with some playfulness and said: "The emperor is thrifty and loves the people, who in the court dares to really show his wealth?" ”
Hearing him say this, Yun Zhuyue shook his head with some regret: "But with the conditions of our palace, I can't afford to buy such a big copper coin tree." ”
After all, it's made of gold!
"Do you really like this thing?"
Qi Moxiao asked her rhetorically, and did not continue to ask her if she would buy it.
I heard him say that just now, how dare Yun Zhuyue buy such a damn thing? So she shook her head at Qi Moxiao, and said with a smile: "No need, it's better to be frugal, I heard that the queen has always liked Buddhist scriptures, why don't I go to Wolong Temple and ask her for a Buddhist scripture?" ”
This Buddhist scripture is very rare, not to mention the Buddhist book that has been influenced by fireworks all year round in Wolong Temple!
Something like this is another kind of value, but it's also shabby.
Seeing that she figured it out so quickly, Qi Moxiao couldn't help but nodded in agreement with La: "This king thinks so too, and this king has already asked people to invite a white jade ancient Buddha back in advance, and the ancient Buddha was worshiped in Wolong Temple for a month in advance, so it won't seem that the birthday gift we prepared is too hasty." ”
"So you had a plan!"
Yun Zhuyue's eyes suddenly lit up, but when she thought that he was working hard over there to choose a gift just now, but Qi Moxiao was looking at her playfully here, her face turned red, and she glared at Qi Moxiao angrily: "Okay, you didn't tell me, did you do it on purpose?" ”
The pink fist smashed on Qi Moxiao's shoulder, but it didn't hurt or itch, Qi Moxiao held her hand with a smile, his eyes were full of doting: "Okay, okay, this king knows that he is wrong, this king just wants to see what kind of gift Yue'er will choose for the queen." ”
The two were talking and laughing here, and the atmosphere was very harmonious and warm.
In addition, they were originally handsome men and beauties walking together, like a pair of beautiful people, which naturally attracted a lot of attention.
After chatting for a while, there were many officials who came to choose gifts to salute them, if they continued to stay, Qi Moxiao's selection of gifts here was probably going to leak out.
So after a few perfunctory words to these people, he left here with Yun Zhuyue with him.
But it was too boring to go back to the palace like this, so they simply walked around the city.
Yun Zhuyue hasn't come out for a long time, looking at the bustling street scene on this street, as well as those delicious famous snacks, I can't help but feel a little relaxed.
"If only I could be with the prince like this all the time."
Just as Qi Moxiao was looking around for something, he heard Yun Zhuyue suddenly turn his head and say something to him with emotion.
These words made Qi Moxiao slightly stunned, and then turned his eyes to her with some curiosity: "Why did Yue'er say that?" ”
As he spoke, he shook his head amusedly: "Hasn't this king been with you for the past few days?" ”
It is true that although Yun has been recuperating in Wang Fuzhong during this period of time, Qi Moxiao will come over to accompany her whenever he is free, and the time spent between the two is even more than the time that Qi Moxiao went to the court to deal with things.
Hearing him say this, Yun Zhuyue pursed his lips and said with a smile: "It's nothing, it just feels that everything that has happened recently has gone too well, as if it was a sweet dream." ”
When he said this, a complicated look flashed in his eyes, as if he had expected something, and it seemed that he had not.
But the abruptness that rose in her eyes made Qi Moxiao feel a little uneasy.
This time out of the palace, Cheng Ning has been secretly following them, and there are many guards ambushed here, and everyone around who wants to do something to Qi Moxiao and Yun Zhuyue has been silently solved by them.
In addition, this trip was not Qi Moxiao's temporary intention, but deliberately wanted to take the clouds out month by month to relax.
After all, after they entered the palace, everything they did in the palace had to be restricted, and they were not as free as they were outside the palace.
So he hopes that Yun Zhuyue will be a little happier during this time.
Therefore, when he assisted, he had already planned the route and basically cleared all obstacles.
After they successfully returned to the palace, it was already late.
But Qi Moxiao had to deal with a little thing temporarily, so he didn't accompany Yun Zhuyue for the time being.
It's also a little strange to say, in the past few days, I've been used to having Qi Moxiao by my side, but today he was suddenly gone, and Yun Zhuyue felt lonely sitting alone in the room.
"Green Star."
When sitting in front of the vanity mirror and looking at himself in the mirror, Yun Zhuyue suddenly called out to the green star guarding outside.
Because it was so quiet around here, almost as soon as the clouds were born, Green Star heard a voice coming.
"Princess, what's wrong?"
She hurried forward, looking a little worried.
Yun Zhuyue was stunned for a moment, but then pursed her lips and smiled, lowered her head and shook her head: "It's nothing, I just feel that this room is big, and the space is empty." ”
The princess has been in a good mood these days, and Green Star doesn't know why she suddenly has such a feeling of emotion.
So, she found a topic to chat with Yun Zhuyue, and when Yun Zhuyue was happy, she took out a small box from her arms and handed it to Yun Zhuyue.
"By the way, princess, this is what the prince wants to hand over to you when the prince comes back today."
The prince is very attentive to himself, and often gets some gadgets for her.
But what is there that he didn't personally transfer to himself?
I don't know why, Yun Zhuyue thought of the pottery puppet from last time again.
After smiling unconsciously, Yun Zhuyue took the pottery puppet off the bed, put it in his hand and looked at it, and then raised his eyes and asked Lu Xing: "What did the prince send me?" ”
Seeing her ask, Green Star stepped forward and opened the small box.
Suddenly, a delicate jade hairpin appeared in the small box.
Because there were candles burning in the room, it looked a little bright, and the jade shimmered in the light, very dazzling, and the whole body flowed with a pleasant emerald green, as if there was life in it.
Suddenly, Yun Zhuyue's eyes froze: this hairpin looks familiar......
In the next second, Yun Zhuyue remembered, wasn't this the hairpin she saw in the Jade Building today?
At that time, she saw that the hairpin was simple and the workmanship was very exquisite, so she wanted to buy it and give it to the queen, but after thinking about it, it would be too poor to give only one hairpin, so she finally gave up.
Unexpectedly, Qi Moxiao had been observing her movements and knew that she liked this hairpin.
But weren't they always together back then? When did Qi Moxiao buy this hairpin back?
