What's the point of picking rocks? The ministers who can stand here are at least the fourth grade.
All the chief officers of the six departments are here.
Wu Zhao just named the Cui family of Qinghe to impeach, but Cui Junsu really didn't take it seriously. He knew that the river was polluted, and it affected the crops. It was not a trivial matter in the Tang Dynasty. People in the Tang Dynasty were much more conscientious than modern people. Cui Junsu also
I personally wrote a letter to my family, and the affected farmers were compensated twice as much grain as the expected maximum yield, and they would also be given replacement land for better quality and an additional 30% increase.
Wu Zhao's impeachment caused him and several other important ministers to think deeply.
The people of the Tang Dynasty were based on fields, which reflected their deep love for the earth. They were also thinking about Wu Zhao's proposal.
Suddenly I saw a row of stones placed there, and I was confused. I didn't understand the meaning of these broken stones.
Wu Zhao knew Li Yuanxing very well, and Li Yuanxing definitely had something private.
"Your Majesty, please order that the few stones that Li Yuanxing has kept privately be taken out. Even if Mingyue doesn't want them, Mingyue must see what treasures can be found in these stones. Isn't this fair?"
"Take it!" Li Er supported Wu Zhao one hundred times. He immediately said to Li Yuanxing: "Wu Lang, take it out and show it to your brother."
"Look! If you look at it, you will definitely snatch her away. I know this girl better than the emperor!" Li Yuanxing was unwilling.
The more unwilling he was, the more Wu Zhao wanted to see it, and encouraged him in front of Empress Changsun: "Sister-in-law, Li Yuanxing didn't bring any gifts to the Holy Emperor or you. He is not a good person!"
"There are gifts!" Li Yuanxing quickly grabbed the topic and shouted to Lu Maofeng: "Bring up my gift!"
Fruits from Lingnan.
No matter the appearance, color or aroma, it is not something that northerners have the opportunity to eat.
The lychee didn't look very good on the outside, but it was extremely delicious on the inside. Even a frugal person like Empress Changsun couldn't praise it enough. Li Er generously wanted to give some to each of the ministers and take them back to his family to taste.
Wu Zhao said at this time: "Your Majesty, those stones are like these lychees. They are ugly on the outside, but there are treasures inside. Although not all of them have them, they are not necessarily what level of treasures they are. So I asked the bad guy Li Yuanxing to store them secretly.
Take it out, let’s take a look first.”
"No!" Li Yuanxing refused without hesitation.
As cunning as Wu Zhao was, Li Yuanxing could be ten times as cunning. This was summed up by the Supreme Emperor Li Yuan.
"Your Majesty, if Li Yuanxing lets us see his treasure, and His Majesty offers silver equal to the weight of the stone, what is the bet?" Wu Zhao was speaking to Li Er, but also to Li Yuanxing.
Again, as cunning as Wu Zhao was, Li Yuanxing could be ten times more cunning.
Li Yuanxing immediately responded: "Gold of equal weight is about the same, but you are too black with silver."
"Just gold!" Wu Zhao immediately patted a stone with his little hand.
"Wu Lang, you are the King of Qin. You cannot go back on your words. Write a note for your brother immediately. The Mingyue Gang will pick a piece for you first!"
Wu Zhao is really evil. She is not targeting Li Yuanxing, but the really wealthy owners of Tang Dynasty and Chang'an.
Li Yuanxing understood, so he stopped hiding it.
"Shen Guan, take out those three pieces. By the way, pick out the stone that I rewarded Captain Gao, and Qiu Xiang's stone, and show them to Your Majesty and the Queen!"
When Lu Maofeng ran to get it, Li Yuanxing said: "Captain Gao picked up a piece under his feet before sailing the ship. He was really lucky. Qiuxiang only picked up a fist-sized piece, but it was in the best condition. In Feizhou
When I went up there, I smashed rocks for several days, but half of them were broken rocks."
"Be content with what you have. Once you have a treasure, you will be secretly happy."
Several wooden boxes, and several others wrapped in cloth.
Captain Gao's piece was only broken open, but the quality inside can be seen.
Wu Zhao squinted his eyes: "This old man has made a fortune."
"Yu Zhen'er estimates the price at about three hundred guan." Li Yuanxing said, taking the piece of Qiuxiang again: "This piece, Yu Zhen'er estimates it at 2,500 guan." After saying that, Li Yuanxing opened a box: "
Girl, you are not allowed to take this piece away. If you put this piece in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, it will be enough for the two countries to fight to the death."
Baoyu, who caused the war between the two countries, made all the important ministers stretch their necks a few inches.
Glass imperial green!
Wu Zhao's eyes were straightened, and the two little hands he stretched out were trembling. This piece will be placed in future generations. If it is priced at 100 million, hundreds of people will dare to throw cash at you.
Li Er and Queen Changsun looked at each other and saw the shock in each other's eyes.
I only knew that Li Yuanxing went to get the precious jade, but he didn't expect it to be so magical. Even the Tang royal family was used to things like blue and white jade and jade, which are really difficult to describe in words.
"What's the other piece?" Wu Zhao shouted at Li Yuanxing.
"Luck, longevity and fortune!" Li Yuanxing said word by word.
No one understands what these three words mean.
Wu Zhao naturally knew: "Green, red, purple! Three-color jade, Li Yuanxing, you are so bad." Wu Zhao punched Li Yuanxing twice and was about to grab the box, but he was hugged by Li Yuanxing.
Li Yuanxing stood up and said with a smile: "You can pick three rough stones based on your ability. If you want them again, use your private money to buy them!"
Wu Zhao took a bite from Li Yuanxing's hand, then took out a bound book, a magnifying glass, and a bright flashlight from Chunlan's bag, and ran towards the stone.
Li Er just laughed.
The piece of imperial green was held by the eunuch and invited all the important officials to see it.
Wang Yuyan and Cui Yanyan were standing far away. After saluting Li Er and Queen Changsun, they sat down in their seats. Wang Yuyan quietly winked at her maid.
Wang Yuyan's maid Yun'er quietly came to Wang Jishan and opened a handkerchief.
It’s hard to describe how precious jadeite is, how valuable this thing is, at least it is much better than the jade on the market in the Tang Dynasty today. In the eyes of the people of the Tang Dynasty, jade is divided into three types, one is the sculpture type, which is the large piece.
The quality of jade is very ordinary. The other type is for sacrificial ritual vessels, which require pure and neat jade color. In fact, many jewelry categories also belong to this type. And the last type is treasure jade, which is the jade and treasure available in the Tang Dynasty.
One in a thousand.
And what Li Yuanxing took out was already beyond the treasure level.
As Yu Zhen'er said, don't underestimate the aristocrats of the Tang Dynasty.
Wang Jishan looked at the piece of jade in Yun'er's hand, which had only the outer stone skin removed. After his face sank slightly, he asked softly: "Is it a reward or a private collection?"
Wang Jishan knew the rules very well. In the Tang Dynasty, only Li Yuanxing dared to say that these were his own because he was the King of Qin.
But the rest of the people did not have Li Yuanxing's reward. Even if they picked it up outside the area designated by Li Yuanxing, it would still be a fault.
This is the rule and etiquette. You are not allowed to take it for yourself and think it is theft. This is not allowed by aristocratic families.
"His Highness rewarded the young lady with three pieces, and two pieces were given out. One piece is this, and the jade master in the palace, Yu Zhen'er, estimated it at 1,400 pieces. The other piece was originally intended to be given to the guards, but it turned out that it was given out.
It's a treasure. Although it's not as good as the piece of fortune and longevity, it's still a good-quality three-color jadeite. I don't dare to put a price on it, so His Highness accepted it and offered it to the Supreme Emperor. He also promised each person a piece of water-type jadeite!" Yun'er reported in a low voice.
.
The first thing Wang Jishan thought of was the rules, not the treasure. The Wang family didn't take Qian Guan Qian seriously yet.
After hearing Yun'er's words, Wang Jishan said: "Go back, I will go and cheer up Princess Mingyue."
"The head of the family, Jade Master Yu Zhen'er, has summarized a few formulas. It's just that it has not been verified. It is just based on the experience of fifty stones that have been opened. The book in the hands of Princess Mingyue, I am afraid that there is a smarter way to choose the rough stone."
After Yun'er finished speaking, she recited those simple and primitive formulas in a low voice.
Wang Jishan nodded. He already had an idea in his mind!
Yun'er retreated, and Wang Jishan came to Li Er: "Your Majesty, this matter is very interesting. According to His Highness King Qin, gold is as heavy as gold, and I want to give it a try!"
"The king and the people have fun together. It's just that it's getting late today. Let's just try one piece. We can have another fun in the palace tomorrow!"
Jade is not a commodity for common people.
In the Tang Dynasty, the royal family came first, and then the big nobles. Not to mention the common people, even the small nobles might not be able to afford it.
But the top-grade treasure-grade jadeite can definitely be used as a family heirloom, a treasure for the prosperous times. If the Wang family does not have a piece of top-grade jadeite, it will really lose their face, so Wang Jishan plans to take a chance on his luck.
Cui Junsu did not move in a hurry. He was observing Wu Zhao. He believed that copying what Wu Zhao had in his hands would be useful.
Soon, Wu Zhao selected the first piece and asked someone to bring it out.
"Mingyue, why is it so small?" Queen Changsun asked puzzledly.
"It's not about the size of jadeite, it's about the quality. Within a few hundred kilograms of stone, if the quality is too poor, it won't be as solid as a piece as big as a pumpkin. Here, Mingyue believes that at least a pair of bracelets can be found. If you are lucky,
, it should be ice type. Glass type is too rare.”
Having said this, Wu Zhao turned back and glanced at Li Yuanxing.
Li Yuanxing pretended not to see it and turned his head away.
"Your Majesty, Li Yuanxing must have something secret!" Wu Zhao said softly.
Li Er shook his head gently, which meant that if he really had a treasure, he would not show it in front of so many people.
The official jade master had been recruited to serve him a long time ago. He was going to open the stone for Wu Zhao in front of Li Er, but Wu Zhao didn't pay much attention to it. What she really cared about was not this. If Li Yuanxing dared to take it out first, he would definitely
It was randomly picked out from the Yuhe River.
Wang Jishan didn't pick it carefully, he just took a rough look and picked out about one piece and five kilograms based on the formula.
"Mr. Wang, do you think it would be appropriate to write down a thousand coins for you?" Lu Maofeng used the exchange ratio between gold and King Qin's money. Wang Jishan nodded: "It's even better. If you round up the number, it will be auspicious."
Lu Maofeng personally carried him to the Jade Master, then pulled up a chair and said, "Mr. Wang, please take a seat."
Only the enslavement mentality of the Qing Dynasty was harmful to people. In the Tang Dynasty, courtiers had seats in front of the emperor, and there was not much servility. (To be continued. Please search Piao Tian Literature, the novel will be better and updated faster!)
