Chapter 82: Unknown Origin (1st Update)
Zhao Xiang'er urged, "Sister Youning is leaving, these are all things from the Dingguo Mansion, do you still want to bid here?"
Only then did everyone know that this chubby and delicate beauty was Chen Youning, the strange woman who had to be treated differently by the King of Jin.
They couldn't help but look closely.
The skin is like condensation, the color is like a peach and plum, a pair of eyes are as clear as a lake, and the autumn sky is reflected on the surface of the lake, which is a clean and pure blue.
The clothes on her body are the cloud brocade that has been spreading recently, which is full of brilliance, complementing her clarity and grabbing people's hearts.
The older ladies were mostly appreciative and amazed, and in their eyes, such a fat woman was more blessed and childbearing. If you have a good appearance and a good bearing, it will be perfect.
They understand very well why King Jin, who has never been close to women, looks down on her. How many men can resist such temptation?
But the young girls think differently.
They have jealousy and pickiness in their eyes.
Jin Wang Ye is the spring boudoir dream of countless women, but now he is occupied by this fat and lowly girl in front of him, how can he not make them angry?
Han Youning ignored everyone's scrutiny.
She looked suspicious, pointed to a peacock in the glass box, and asked Han Qingwan, "Cousin, why do you have this step?"
The shape of the step is elegant and chic, there is a peacock with an open screen on the hairpin flower branch, the peacock tail is inlaid with sapphires, and a pair of hanging beads falling at the lower end are two emerald gemstones, emerald green.
Han Qingwan's words just now suppressed the scene, and her heart was much more relaxed, and she deeply felt the deterrent power of the title of Duke Dingguo.
Hearing Han Youning ask, she relied on the confidence her mother gave her and smiled slightly, "What does the county lord mean, why can't I have this step?"
's mother is also the daughter of the dignified Yongning Marquis and the head of the household, and the dowry must be rich, what are these heads?
Han Youning said calmly, "Because this step is made by the Chen family's silver building, and my grandfather designed it, I built a total of two, one for my aunt and one for me."
Whispers erupted all around.
"I just said that this craft is not the same as that in the capital, it turned out to be from Xiangping Mansion."
"Miss Chen's aunt, isn't she the first lady of Dingguo?"
"Isn't this a shake...... Stolen?"
Han Qingwan's face was red and white for a while, this step shake was given to her by her mother, she thought it was her mother's own, but she actually took it from her aunt!
She said unhappily, "The county lord said this out of thin air, is he going to charge me with a crime?"
Han Youning said, "If my cousin doesn't believe it, look at the back of the hairpin, whether there is a word 'vine' engraved on it."
Shopkeeper Ding, who had been observing the situation here, walked over, he glanced at Han Qingwan lightly, and took the key to open the box.
Zhao Xiang'er quickly picked up Bu Shao and carefully examined the back of the peacock.
"There really is a word 'vine'! What else do you say?"
She just said! As soon as Sister Youning spoke, Han Qingwan was fine!
The others cautiously took it over and looked at it, "Oh, that's true......
Han Qingwan secretly regretted that she had only put it away after wearing it once, and the word was so hidden that she didn't notice it at all!
Han Youning said, "If my cousin still doesn't believe me, I can send someone back to bring my hairpin, mine is engraved with the word 'Ning', and it is exactly the same in other places."
Han Qingwan's face turned red, and she said forcefully, "I heard that the eldest aunt and mother are good, or maybe she gave them to you......
Shopkeeper Ding took the step shake to check, he frowned and said, "Miss Han doesn't know, the gems on this step shake are very valuable, especially the pair of emerald gems, which are extremely rare cat's eye emeralds. Even if you don't bid, I'm afraid you won't be able to buy it for 20,000 taels of silver."
There was a sound of inhalation all around.
Such a valuable step shake is a father again
Who will give it away if it is designed by hand?
Shopkeeper Ding continued, "Contemptible people are not talented, and nothing else is good, but Jianbao has some ability. The heads of these exhibits are all made by the same craftsmanship, and since this peacock hairpin is made by the Chen Jia Yin Building, the others are also from the Chen Jia Yin Building."
Shopkeeper Ding has been in charge of Qingchun Building for many years and has a good reputation in Beijing. What he said was a nail in the coffin, and everyone was convinced.
There may really be one piece that may be a gift, but there are so many pieces, and the price is astronomical, then the truth is self-evident.
Everyone discussed, "Oh, I don't dare to buy a head of unknown origin, no matter how beautiful I wear it, I can't wear it."
"Dingguo Gong has not remarried, the first lady's dowry won't be taken care of by the second lady, right?"
"That's the designation, so many good things are cheap for others......
……
Shopkeeper Ding's face was pale, and he said to Han Qingwan, "The contemptible person said in advance that the origin of the treasure must be decent. Now, these shops can't be sold."
Han Qingwan held on to a few cases weakly.
Shopkeeper Ding's words almost concluded in public that her head was stolen. All the people present have noble identities, most of them are relatives of the emperor and the country, and they are Xuanhemen.
If you can't get rid of the suspicion of stealing, I'm afraid that there will be no place to stand in the capital.
She forcibly explained, "My eldest aunt has been immortal for more than ten years, so how do you know what people didn't know about back then? Do you know that my mother didn't ask someone to buy it in Xiangping Mansion?"
Shopkeeper Ding smiled coldly, "Then wait for the young lady to prove the innocence of this face, and then come to Qingchun Building."
He beckoned a few guys to come over and ordered, "Open the box, take out all the heads, and return them to Miss Han."
The guys shouted yes in unison and dispersed.
Shopkeeper Ding clenched his fists and arched his hands, and said apologetically, "Ladies and gentlemen, I apologize, this singing and selling has been canceled today, and all of your expenses will be waived, which can be regarded as a contemptible and reparation with you."
"Shopkeeper Ding is so biased, it is unfair."
There was a clear voice coming from upstairs.
Shopkeeper Ding raised his eyes and saw the third prince Zhao Yin standing in front of the window.
He arched his hand at Zhao Yin, "Your Royal Highness the Third Prince, the contemptible shop has always been impartial, and the contemptible people dare not help anyone."
Zhao Yin sneered, "But all the noble heads, which one has not handled countless masters, you are so presumptuous to judge, how can it be the fair style of Qingchun Building."
Shopkeeper Ding smiled, "Contemptible people don't dare to make judgments, it's just that these heads are precious, and they involve the Duchess of Dingguo, if you don't figure out the origin, who dares to buy it to annoy the Duke of Dingguo?"
Zhao Yin's face was gloomy, the matter was clear, even if the singing and selling continued, no one would come to buy it.
When Han Qingwan saw that the third prince was actually here, hope was ignited in her heart again.
What she needs at this time is the support of such a high-ranking and powerful person to guide public opinion.
