When the emperor saw the jade pendant, his face suddenly sank, "Didn't I decree that all the items confiscated from the Zhenguo Duke's Mansion should be sealed and stored in the warehouse? Why is the jade pendant from the Zhenguo Duke's Mansion still left outside?!"
Eunuch Yuan didn't say anything. The warehouse was a place full of oil and water. Not to mention the household department, even the things in the palace had been exchanged for fake ones.
Xie Boting looked at the emperor, who was stroking the jade pendant and said, "There are three pieces of this kind of jade pendant. They look the same from a distance, but there are actually slight differences. The Duke of Zhen used a piece of jade to make them for his three children."
The piece in his hand belonged to Queen Shen. Queen Shen never left her body during her lifetime. When Queen Shen was buried, the emperor was really reluctant to part with it, so he took it off Queen Shen's body to commemorate her, as if she was still with him.
The second young master of Zhenguo Palace was killed on the battlefield. His body was trampled into mud by Dong Yong's cavalry, and the jade pendant he carried with him was naturally shattered.
This piece belongs to the eldest young master of Zhenguo Palace.
Duke Yuan said fairly, "I will send the jade pendant to the Ministry of Household Affairs and have it hammered again."
The emperor handed the jade pendant to Eunuch Yuan, but just as Eunuch Yuan reached out to catch it, the emperor took it back and threw the jade pendant to Xie Boting. Xie Boting caught it steadily and looked at the emperor in confusion.
The emperor served the tea ceremony and said, "It was left in the Treasury of the Ministry of Revenue. I don't know who got the advantage in the end. The Crown Princess really likes this kind of jade pendant, so I gave it to her."
The emperor still remembered that his wife robbed his jade pendant. Xie Boting felt that the jade pendant was hot to his hands, "I thanked the emperor on behalf of my wife."
Nothing happened, so Xie Boting resigned.
Here Xie Boting left the royal study, and over there Xia Guifei came with the maids to deliver lotus seeds and white fungus soup to the emperor to calm the fire.
Seeing Xie Boting coming out of the royal study in ragged clothes, Concubine Xia's face was cold. She helped the Princess of Nankang to separate the people from Kyoto. Such a good opportunity actually allowed them to come back, and they returned to Beijing unscathed. Prince Zhao's palace was just doing business So incompetent?!
Fortunately, Master Yun has been found, and at least she believes that the palace will still look after her.
Concubine Xia's mood improved a little after she thought this way. When the father-in-law who was guarding the imperial study saw her coming, he already informed the emperor. When Concubine Xia came over, he went directly into the imperial study.
From a distance, she could see the emperor drinking tea. Concubine Xia Guifei, who had been with the emperor for sixteen years, could tell at a glance that the emperor was in a good mood, and not just in a good mood.
She frowned slightly. Didn't she say that the emperor was in a bad mood? How could he be so happy? Even though she had been with the emperor for so many years, she had never seen him in such a good mood several times.
Concubine Xia stepped forward and said, "The emperor is so happy, but what happy event is there? Tell me, let me be happy for you, the emperor."
The emperor was indeed in a good mood, and his heart was overjoyed. Previous dynasties had not been able to solve the problem of people eating salt, but they solved it during his reign. This is a good thing that will go down in history, and it is enough for him to show off in the palace. I spent many days and nights on the flowing water table.
It was Su Tang who turned coarse salt into snow salt. Neither he nor Concubine Qin Xian agreed to let Su Tang go to Yun Yi. It was Concubine Xia who insisted that Su Tang go. The emperor smiled and said, "Recommend the crown prince of Jingnan to the crown prince." Leave the capital to find Yun Yi. You have made great contributions. When Yun Yi and Marquis Zhongyong return to the capital, I will discuss your merits and reward them." This chapter has been completed!
