At the end of the song, the wind chime with a veil was a blessing body and returned to the seat.

Then the old Mr. Qi Bo announced the start of the auction banquet.

Of course, the noble girls who were doing well in the old Marquis' Mansion were very dissatisfied with the good intentions of the old Marquis' Mansion. So, at this time, someone was dissatisfied: "Mr. Qi Bo, why is it your granddaughter who only plays a solo song, and the banquet will begin next? Is it a bit unauthorized to do this by Marquis' Mansion? Today's visitors are all guests. For what purpose, you know in your heart that your granddaughter has finished performing. Then, we will give all the noble girls a chance to perform, right?"

The person who spoke was an old man, who looked like he was not low in his official position.

"Old Ge, don't worry, our auction will be held in three stages. At the end of each stage, someone will have to perform. At that time, all the noble ladies can do their best!" Old Qi Bohou said with a slightly stiff smile on his face.

This immortal person likes to be against him on weekdays, but he still has to be like this in such an occasion today. It’s so anger that his liver hurts.

"If you say this, it's pretty good. Otherwise, what does it mean to just let your granddaughter show off in such an occasion? Okay, the auction will start soon. Your Highness has been waiting for a long time!" The old master Zhang said very bluntly.

Humph, don’t look at what Old Qi Bohou said nicely, what three stages and four stages are? Why did he let his granddaughter take the lead? Isn’t that because of preconceived ideas? After his granddaughter played the zither, no matter what he played behind him, he would not impress others. This old fox, hum.

"Okay! The charity auction for the soldiers in the northern border begins now, and the first stage is the auction of objects! This auction is the items donated by the Empress Dowager and the Empress Dowager of each palace. Each item is set at a minimum price. The following ceremony will be carried out by the Eunuch Li next to the Emperor!" Old Qi Bohou resisted the urge to get angry with the Master Zhang and said to everyone.

"..." Then a middle-aged eunuch came up and began to take charge of the auction of the things donated by the empress dowager and the empresses of each palace.

The first thing to auction was a jade bracelet from the Queen Mother. This jade bracelet is a delicate and transparent blood jade, which is obviously a priceless thing. So until this jade bracelet was displayed in front of everyone, everyone was breathing.

"The Queen Mother's dowry back then, the best blood jade starts at 3,000 taels of silver!" Eunuch Li said in a sharp voice.

"Four thousand taels of silver!"

"Four thousand five hundred taels of silver!"

"hiss……"

"This is too expensive, let's look down. We can't afford to introduce this jade bracelet!"

“…”

People in the middle hall were talking about the price. In the end, the jade bracelet was sold for 30,000 taels of silver. Not to mention the officials, they were surprised with the princes. Even Jin Xuan had to admit that there were still many rich people!

Prince Feng Xuansong was also full of excitement and joy. After all, he was involved in this matter from beginning to end. Only the Empress Dowager's jade bracelet came out and sold so much money. Then, if things go well, the soldiers in the northern border would be completely saved.

The third prince Feng Xuansheng didn't expect that the auction would have such an effect. He still remembered how his reaction was when his mother told him about this matter. His father actually agreed to such a ridiculous thing? He didn't dare to believe it at all, and he reluctantly agreed to his mother's words and participated in it. Anyway, the prince could participate, so why can't he wipe out this face?

It was not until now that he truly understood the meaning of this. Fortunately, he participated, otherwise, this time the prince missed his face.

****************************************************************************************************

Looking at the Zhao Yuanwai, who got the blood jade bracelet of the Queen Mother, his old face was full of smiles, as if he had obtained some advantage. His Zhao family has been doing business for generations, and although he has made a lot of money, the Zhao family has not even produced scholars, and no one has obtained a single official position. This is something that the Zhao family has regretted for many years and cannot be changed.

Therefore, the Zhao family has always wanted to improve their identity in terms of identity, but no matter what, they still have no chance of officialdom. Today, at this moment, their Zhao family finally had the first time close contact with such a high-ranking person, even the crown prince, who is the future crown prince, can see it, so Zhao Yuanwai is undoubtedly the happiest person today.

So when he took the jade bracelet in his hand excitedly, he handed it to the servant beside him to properly put it away, and then he continued to sit down below to watch the ceremony. At this time, he only felt that his waist was much straight.

The second, third, fourth, and until the end, the jewelry donated by the queen and concubines were all sold at high prices. Although it was not as high as the Queen Mother's jade bracelet, each piece of jewelry was sold for more than 10,000 taels.

When Eunuch Li saw that the silver had entered the royal family like flowing water, he was happy. After all, he had been under the command of Emperor Qi for many years. Of course, he knew that in the past, he had also held a case of asking the ministers to donate silver, but there was no such scene today. This was the first stage just now!

"The first stage of this charity auction has been completed. The miscellaneous families should first sort out the amount of donations in that stage, so if there is a daughter who wants to perform on stage, it can start!" Eunuch Li also discussed with the old Mrs. Qi Bohou in advance. At the end of each stage, the daughters of the daughters must be given some time to show their talents. So after Eunuch Li announced, he would sort out the donations in the first stage.

Sure enough, Eunuch Li announced that Zhang Ge Lao's granddaughter, Zhang Yingying, danced gracefully in colorful feather clothes. Zhang Yingying was extremely petite, but her body proportions were very good. In addition, her dancing posture was graceful, and it was clearly like an elf who fell in the mortal world dancing.

So all the people in the hall were attracted by Zhang Yingying's dance. Zhang Ge Lao looked at Na Zi Bo Hou with great pride, as if he was demonstrating to him. He showed his authority to the old Na Zi Bo Hou, and then looked at the princes and princes' seats, but they had a faint expression, which made Na Zi Bo Hou's originally rising emotions cold.

The reason why the ministers can still attend the auction banquet for this donation situation today is that they are aimed at the crown princes, princes, and young talents? Although the crown prince already has a concubine, the position of the concubine is still hanging in the air. So what about being the crown prince's concubine? What is the identity of the crown prince? That is the future crown prince, so these court officials actively participated in the auction. Of course, they would not buy anything. They just wanted to participate in it, be able to fight against the Emperor of Great Qi, and help their daughters and granddaughters find a good husband. So this is their purpose here today.

With Zhang Yingying's lead, other noble girls also came forward to show their talents. In their opinion, the earlier they performed, the more they would pay more attention to those young talents, so they rushed to perform on stage.

"Mom, why are you holding me? Haven't you seen the current situation clearly? Everyone is rushing to perform. Isn't Fengling, the lady from the Marquis of Qi Bo's mansion, the first to go on stage to perform? What are the daughter waiting for? If it falls to the end, who else can watch it? Mom..." Pu Jinxue became anxious when she saw the current situation.

There are so many princes in the stands. As long as there is someone who can look at her differently, she will succeed. After all, this is her final turnaround, and she cannot miss it. Pu Jinxuan on the stage can do it, and she can do it as well.

****************************************************************************************************

"Xue'er, can you be too anxious? Have you noticed the situation on the stage just now? Haven't you seen those princes and princes have expressionless faces? There are so many people performing this, and people's aesthetics are naturally tired. Besides, it's not the time to get the highlight. Xue'er, wait a little longer. The young lady of Qi Bohou has already told her mother. Miss Feng Er starts with you, don't want to forget the purpose of our coming now, and you can't ruin things because of a moment of impulse!" Xu pulled Pu Jinxue and said in a low voice.

"Mom, are you serious? You have to know that this is my daughter's last chance. My daughter doesn't want to miss this opportunity!" Pu Jinxue has always listened to Xu's words, so she believed what Xu said at this time.

"When did you cheat on you? Now the first phase of the auction is over. Those people are really too impatient. The good show is coming. Xueer, if you listen to your mother, your mother will not harm you!" Xu patted Pu Jinxue's back of her hand and said.

"Okay, mom, I'll listen to you, let's wait!" Pu Jinxue finally felt relieved and said to Xu.

Pu Jinxue also felt that Xu's words were very reasonable. There were too many people performing now. Even she looked at them and felt that they were not very good, let alone those tall and handsome princes.

Pu Jinxue looked at Feng Xuanyi again. Why couldn't such a handsome man look at her? And Young Master Mu actually has a fiancée. How could Pu Jinxue be a young man? So Pu Jinxue looked at Xiang Jinxuan with a little disappointed and extremely resentful.

Jin Xuan, who was sitting in the stands and trying to keep a low profile, seemed to feel a very strong and resentful look. Following that look, Jin Xuan saw that the person was Pu Jinxue and Xu. Jin Xuan picked up the corner of his mouth. They were really omnipresent. Here, you can still see her two, but what was the look that Pu Jinxue looked at her? It seemed like she had snatched some of her treasures.

Soon, the Eunuch Li walked out with great joy. It turned out that in the first phase, 280,000 taels of silver were raised for the soldiers in the northern border. What a huge sum of money, Eunuch Li could now imagine what the situation would be like after Emperor Qi learned about it.

The next second stage is the imperial treasures of Emperor Qi, the princes, princes and others. Sure enough, after Eunuch Li announced the auction items for the second stage, the people in the entire hall breathed again. The emperor's imperial treasures were not seen at will. Moreover, the emperor's goods, let alone those wealthy merchants, even the officials in the court wanted to compete for them.

First of all, the Emperor Li gave someone to show him a high mountain flowing water painted by Emperor Daqi. This painting was painted by Emperor Daqi in the year when Emperor Daqi ascended the throne, so it was extremely precious. It should have been a priceless treasure, but for the sake of the soldiers in the northern border, Emperor Daqi could only bear the pain and took the painting out for auction, with the lowest price of 10,000 taels of silver.

"Twenty thousand taels of silver!"

"Thirty thousand taels of silver!"

"Fifty thousand taels of silver!"

"..." Everyone snatched the Emperor of Great Zhou again.

"100,000 taels of silver!" It was Mr. Zhao again. At this time, he was even more excited than the last one. So as soon as he opened his mouth, he actually raised the auctioned silver to another level.

After his disruption, everyone in the central hall calmed down. Even Jin Xuan looked at Mr. Zhao very carefully. How much money does he have? 100,000 taels of silver? He looked like he had picked up a bargain. Who is this person?

"Fifteen thousand taels of silver!" After a brief silence, another middle-aged man dressed in a businessman raised his hand and said.

"Hiss! This is such a big deal, and it's an increase of 50,000 taels of silver at once? I think we'll just forget it!"

"The Emperor's Mo Treasure is indeed the most precious!"

"What a pity, what a pity!"
