Chapter 40: Sorry, this Taibai Zun is indeed a fake

Xu Ying had never seen such a scene before, and she was so frightened that beads of sweat broke out on her forehead.

"You...you..."

But Liu Zhenying still had the same lazy attitude, half-squinting his eyes and smiling: "Pick up my beads."

This time, Xu Ying did not dare to say anything more.

Dragging her injured leg, she squatted down to pick up the bead, and then looked back at the bead on the wall.

She couldn't dig it out...

In the end, Liu Zhenying stepped forward and took out the beads embedded in the wall seemingly effortlessly, then sat back down with an expressionless expression, returning to his look of not paying attention to anyone.

I don't know if Liu Zhenying's move shocked everyone, but no one dared to provoke her anymore.

Today is Qu Lao’s 80th birthday.

Before the banquet officially started, Qu Lao naturally had to appear in front of everyone.

Naturally, some people would send gifts to Mr. Qu in advance, just to look familiar in front of Mr. Qu.

Even though Liu Zhenying was sitting further away, he could still hear the man's complimenting voice: "Old Qu, I heard that you like the Taibai Zun of the Kang Dynasty. I happened to get such a statue some time ago. It's a waste to put it in my hands.

It is better to borrow flowers and offer them to Buddha, and see if they are a good match for you."

That is a Taibai statue in red robe.

The cowpea red color, smooth and dense texture, and overall roundness make it really valuable.

Obviously, this suits Mr. Qu's wishes very well.

He took it, his half-turbid eyes lit up, and he gave a rare compliment: "This gift...you have given it a lot of thought."

"As long as you like it."

The scene where both host and guest were enjoying themselves made Liu Zhenying glance at him.

Then, she lowered her eyes again and uttered two words with her crimson lips: "Fake."

Although he said this to himself, it was inevitable that he would be heard by others around him.

The man immediately raised his voice: "You actually said that the Taibai Zun in Mr. Qu's hand was fake?"

As soon as these words came out, everyone's eyes were instantly focused on Liu Zhenying.

Either contemptuously or ridiculed.

Naturally, Liu Yuqing didn't expect Liu Zhenying to be so bold, so he subconsciously walked to her side and protected her behind him.

He curled his lips and smiled gently, looking gentle and personable, and helped explain: "I'm sorry, Zhenzhen has just arrived in Nancheng District. He doesn't understand many things very well. Please don't mind my random remarks."

Little did they know that his protective posture, in the eyes of everyone, just confirmed what Liu Qixia just said.

Liu Zhenying and Liu Yuqing have a different kind of ambiguous relationship.

On the other hand, Old Qu's eyes narrowed and he waved to Liu Zhenying calmly: "Girl Liu, did you just say that Taibai Zun is fake?"

Even though he was called by name, Liu Zhenying still sat calmly.

She rolled up her almond-shaped eyes and smiled: "Well, Taibai Zun is fake."

"Then you have to give everyone a good explanation, otherwise you girl will cause trouble at my birthday party."

This seemingly pressurizing attitude is actually indescribably intimate.

What's more, Liu Zhenying didn't show the slightest fear.

She stood up slowly: "First of all, the firing technique of Taibai Zun is difficult to master, and the success rate is extremely low. It is generally only used for royal supplies, so the underglaze is engraved with a group of chi patterns."

What is Tuan Chi Pattern?

It is a legendary dragon without horns, with an open mouth, a curled tail, and a crotch.

"If you look carefully, you can see that the direction of the mouth of this group of chi pattern is wrong, it is towards the tail."

Liu Zhenying tapped Taibai Zun's bottle with his slender fingers, and his fair face showed a hint of profound meaning: "Also, the inscription on the bottom of the bottle is indeed six characters and three lines in regular script, but the vertical characters of 'Zhi' Ti and Na should be connected together, rather than written separately in modern regular script, where the eight classics are written separately."

If Liu Zhenying hadn't mentioned these two things, no one present would have discovered them.

But even so, the man who gave the gift was still unhappy: "I asked someone to specially identify this Taibai Zun. What do you, a little girl, know?"

Liu Zhenying looked into the man's eyes and smiled lightly: "Then it seems you have been deceived."

"How is that possible?"

Of course men don't believe it.

But Qu Lao quietly put Taibai Zun aside.

This attitude can clearly explain a lot of things.

The man put so much effort into this because he wanted to please the Qu family.

But now...

Naturally, he was unwilling to do so.

"Old Qu, I..." Something suddenly occurred to him, and he slapped his leg hard with his hand: "Old Qu, I remember that Miss Ren is here today. She is Mr. Guan's apprentice, and she specializes in cultural relics. Expert, why not let her identify the authenticity?"

Qu Lao naturally had no objection.

Ren Jiajia had heard the commotion here a long time ago, and naturally listened to what Liu Zhenying just said.

At first she didn't believe how capable the young and flamboyant girl in front of her was, but when she got the Taibai Zun in her hands...

All the expressions on her face slowly froze.

After a while, she lowered her eyes and said, "I'm sorry, this Taibai Zun is indeed a fake."

Putting the things on the table, Ren Jiajia took off her gloves and pursed her red lips into a straight line.
