Chapter 362: Zhu Xi's Gift

As Jiang Chen finished speaking, Zhu Yinian immediately frowned and looked at Ying An unhappy and said, "What do you mean that I can't even bring out a decent gift? Could it be that my filial piety is so unremarkable in your eyes?"

"Not bad! You must make it clear today!"

Cao Sheng, Zeng Jie and others couldn't help but glared at each other.

Originally, especially for Cai Jing's sake, everyone would pretend not to hear this. Ying Andao relied on Cai Jing's power to dare to show off so unrestrainedly.

But he forgot that there was a Jiang Chen who had never met before and hated them and Zhu Xie to death. He directly picked up the matter, attracting the attention of countless noble people.

Seeing this, the censor Chen Cisheng couldn't help but say sarcastically: "Mr. Ying'andao and Zhu Xie were slashing the ground three feet in the south of the Yangtze River. They were all rich enough to rival the country. It's not surprising that they looked down on the gifts we offered!"

Um-

here we go again!

Are you finished?

When Cai Jing heard Zhu Xie's name, he immediately shouted: "Today is the birthday of the Queen and Saint, not in the court. Don't just cause trouble, and it will be a joy of the birthday!"

Jiang Chen smiled and said, "Cai Xiang, don't misunderstand. Xiaguan and others just want to see the generous gifts of Lord Ying and Zhu Xie, and be happy for the Queen and Saint!"

"That's right, that's exactly what it means!"

"Sir, please!"

Zhu Yinian and others immediately started to cheer.

Song Huizong was drinking and talking to the royal family such as Rui Wang Zhao Jin and Fu Wang Zhao Yi. After being attracted by the attention, he immediately sent Wang Li, the personal eunuch who replaced Tan Zhen, to come to ask questions.

After learning about the situation, while being unhappy, he couldn't help but feel curious and expectant, and asked, "What is the birthday celebration offered by Jiangnan this year?"

"When I go back to the official family, I am a set of crowns of the queen and a granite stone!"

A eunuch immediately replied respectfully.

Before he could finish his words, Ying Andao left the line and came under the small high platform where Emperor Huizong of Song and Empress Zheng were, and said:

"I am the Censor of Jiangnan Road, Ying Andao, to pay homage to the official family and the Queen and the Saint!

In addition to escorting 10 million guan of taxes in Beijing, my minister also brought gifts to the officials and the saints on behalf of the governor Zhu Xie and Zhu.

May the official family live long and the queen and saint be long and thousands of years old!”

After Ying Andao said that, he glanced at Jiang Chen with contempt and directly gave the gift.

The first one is the extremely luxurious Queen Crown.

Zhu Wei was decorated with seven golden phoenixes last week. Each golden phoenix was decorated with nine east beads, one cat eye stone, and twenty-one pearls; behind the hat crown, Jindi was inlaid with one cat eye stone, and one cat eye stone on both sides were decorated with sixteen pearls...

After roughly thinking about it, this queen crown alone used more than 300 pearls, and they were all the same size and were dazzlingly brilliant.

As for the queen's crown garment, it is even more beautiful, like a work of art.

Not only were the civil and military officials in the court, but even Emperor Huizong of Song and Empress Zheng were shocked by Zhu Xie's big moves.

"How much money will it cost to spend on this set? I'm afraid it will cost millions of dollars?"

"Oh my god! How much did Zhu Xie shave in Jiangnan?"

He Zhizhong and Zheng Juzhong looked shocked and lost their voices, but anyone with discerning eyes knew that these two old guys had bad intentions.

‘Damn it!

You have to be uncomfortable on a happy day, right?

Cai Jing glared at them in anger, stood up and bowed, "Since the official family, the queen saint, Zhu Xie met the queen saint a few years ago, and learned that the queen saint was reluctant to make the queen's crown robes to save national use, he was unable to feel at ease.

So I invited the best embroiderer in Jiangnan to use the best brocade of my Song Dynasty. After several years of hard work, I finally completed this set of queen crown clothes a few days ago. It was really hard to be loyal to him!"

While speaking, Cai Jing stared at Jiang Chen with a vigilant look on his face, for fear that Jiang Chen would come out to cause trouble.

Jiang Chen did want to make a few sarcastic words, but Song Huizong didn't give him a chance. He nodded immediately with satisfaction and said, "Okay! Is he filial and this set of crowns really compatible with the queen! Why not let the queen change it and let me and my beloved friends see it?"

Um-

Empress Zheng frowned slightly, feeling a little reluctant, and thought to herself: I finally developed a reputation of virtuousness and frugality. If I wear this thing, wouldn’t I have to waste all my previous efforts?

"Could it be that the queen doesn't like it?"

Seeing that Empress Zheng was silent, Song Huizong immediately spoke up and asked questions.

this……

How can I answer this?

Empress Zheng was embarrassed and subconsciously looked at Jiang Chen.

Jiang Chen stepped on his chin and immediately stood up, and beside Cai Jing, bowed and said: "Master, the master's wife is not displeased, but is reluctant to let go. If she wears it, she will be uncomfortable."

When Empress Zheng heard this, she immediately smiled admiringly at Jiang Chen.

"I'm reluctant to give up?"

Song Huizong looked puzzled.

Cai Jing turned his head and said angrily: "All things have been made, why do you think you will not give up? It is a waste of resources to abandon them like this! Jiang Chen, don't guess the best intentions casually!"

He also hoped that Empress Zheng would accept the gift and help Zhu Xie say a few good things to him, so how could he allow Jiang Chen to destroy it?

Jiang Chen shook his head and said, "Cai Xiang, the Queen and Saint are not allowed to make the Queen's crown. It is not because the government and the treasury have no money, but because of their compassion for the people of the world and their respect for the former Empress Huigong (the prince's biological mother).

Although Zhu Xie was filial, it went against the original intention of the Queen Saint. How could you let the Queen Saint wear a more luxurious crown than Queen Huigong?”

"this?"

Cai Jing was stopped.

Empress Zheng smiled at Song Huizong and said, "Liangchen is worthy of being a disciple of the official family. She simply expressed her thoughts. I will never dare to go over my sister!"

"Queen...I, I really found a good queen!"

Song Huizong held Empress Zheng's simple hand with great emotion.

Seeing this, Ying Andao was anxious and stared at Jiang Chen with great resentment. "Master Jiang, since you understand the Queen and Saint so well, what kind of birthday gift did you give?"

"Yes, Lord Jiang is considered a disciple by the official and the queen. I guess the gift he gave is not worse than this crown suit, right?"

Cai Huang, Cai Tao and others immediately argued with Jiang Chen, looking sarcastic.

"That's natural!"

Jiang Chen nodded confidently.

"What? More expensive than such a luxurious crown?"

"Really or not?"

"I don't believe it, absolutely not!"

Cai Jing was stunned!

Song Huizong and everyone present looked expectant.

Ying Andao shook his head wildly with disbelief on his face.

Cai Yan thought of something and sneered: "Jiang Chen, you are not talking about that glass mirror? Although that thing is rare, it is a thousand miles away from this set of queen crowns!"

Jiang Chen shook his head: "A mere common thing, no matter how precious it is, how can it be seen from the master's wife and master's eyes? It's just a big shot, so I'll give you a reward to the master's wife."
