Chapter 296: Relic
The restaurant where the two of them ate was diagonally opposite the Huamanlou, and they asked for a private room on the second floor, just to see the door of the Huamanlou.
ordered a few special side dishes, and the two of them stared at the movement of Huamanlou while eating.
Cang Luochen suddenly remembered that when Fang was in the pawnshop, Yue Junzheng flashed his short sword in front of the shopkeeper, and the snobbish shopkeeper immediately answered the question happily.
"Lord Wang, why did the shopkeeper answer the question happily when he saw this short sword?" Cang Luochen looked at the short sword that Yue Jun was putting aside.
It is said that the shopkeeper of such a big pawnshop must be well-informed, and he will not lose his momentum because someone has flashed his weapon, and the shopkeeper saw that the short sword's eyes lit up as if he had seen some rare treasure, Cang Luochen was a little curious.
Yue Jun was pushing the short sword in front of Cang Luochen.
When Cang Luochen was in the capital, it was rare to see Yue Jun carrying a weapon with him, and since he came to Baicheng, he often carried this short sword.
The iron-clad gold-coated scabbard was inlaid with some precious stones, and it was also of extraordinary value at first glance, but it was impossible for such a big shopkeeper not to have seen good things, so Cang Luochen still didn't understand why the shopkeeper valued this short sword so much.
Yue Junzheng seemed to see Cang Luochen's doubts, and pointed at the sword spike.
Cang Luochen moved his gaze to the sword spike again, and there was a string of slightly yellowed beads on the red silk silk, I couldn't tell what the texture was, but at first glance it was an old object.
Cang Luochen looked at Yue Junzheng suspiciously.
Yue Junzheng slowly put down the chopsticks: "This thing is a relic, the ancestor of the founding of the Yue Dynasty made friends with a high monk, and the monk left one hundred and eight relics after his death, and the ancestor emperor awarded the one hundred and eight relics to the prince who had made meritorious contributions and succeeded to the throne, and then continued to this day." ”
Cang Luochen sounded even more strange, he had only heard that some eminent monks would have relics after their death, but he had never seen it, and today he was fortunate to see such a treasure.
"Since the ancestor emperor rewarded the founding merit and the succession prince, then this one was given by the emperor to the prince?" Cang Luochen asked.
Yue Jun Zhengqing bowed his head: "At this point, there is only this string left in the hands of my father." ”
Speaking of the old emperor, Yue Junzheng's eyes couldn't help but flash a trace of worry.
Leaving the old emperor alone in the capital, although there should not be any danger to his life, but after all, with Prince Shen and Ning Xiang and Concubine Fu, the old emperor's life must not be too comfortable.
Since Yue Junzheng returned to Huaifeng and came to Baicheng, he rarely mentioned the old emperor, even if he talked about the capital court with Cang Luochen, the two of them tacitly rarely mentioned the emperor, because Cang Luochen was afraid that Yue Junzheng would be sad in his heart.
"The emperor is the true dragon son of heaven, and the auspicious people have their own heavenly appearance, so the prince doesn't need to worry." Cang Luochen comforted. But such words of comfort seem very weak at this time.
Cang Luochen was also a little interested in this short sword and relics, and the two of them had nothing to say for a while, only drinking tea, and had been paying attention to the situation of Hua Manlou.
It wasn't until near the evening that the building with the door closed during the day was full of flowers, and finally there was movement.
Xiao Si opened the door from the inside, and after a while, some women stood not far from the door, shaking the champa in her hand, and greeting the passing men with a smile.
Cang Luochen and Yue Junzheng approached, and even two women greeted them very warmly: "Two uncles, please come inside!" ”
