From now on, the Son of Heaven does not come early

Chapter 490 A Disrespectful Gift
After the dancer girl retreated, Wei Youting came up with a gift list, opened it in front of all the courtiers, and read word by word: "Master Sima Dong Luodong sent the Empress Empress a Nanshan not old pine tree! "

Hearing this, several courtiers couldn't help but smile, Nanshan isn't old pine?The empress is very young, isn't it ridiculous to give this kind of thing to the old lady?As a result, when everyone saw the pine tree, everyone couldn't help being stunned.

It was a pine tree carved out of complete jasper, about half a person tall, the pine needles were clearly visible, the pine cones were carved with the color of jasper itself, and the branches were inlaid with white jade, just like a pine tree hanging Just a little bit of dew, the texture of this jade alone is already priceless, not to mention the superb carving work!
All the ministers couldn't help but gasped and stared dumbfounded.

A small hidden guard climbed to the position of Da Sima. Where did Dong Luo get such a noble thing? Could it be that the emperor gave it in the name of Dong Luo?

Courtiers, look at me, I look at you, with Zhu Nanshan not old and relaxed, no one dares to have the slightest exaggeration.

Yan Jing'an looked at the pine tree made of pearls and whole jade and couldn't help but tsk-tsk-tsk-tsk-tsk, Da Sima was really a big hand, even he couldn't help but feel that this thing was so rare, tsk-tsk tsk-tsk, how could the rest of the people get it for themselves What about the gift?

When Yan Jing'an was ashamed, Wei Youting said again: "Situ Yan Jing'an, Mrs. Yan gave the Empress Empress a set of luminous cups, wishing Empress Huang a long life and boundless life."

Yan Jing'an twitched her eyelids and wanted to cover her face. Compared with this not old pine cup, the luminous cup is simply as good as the sky and the earth?
Now the courtiers couldn't help but sneered, the contrast between the two was really strong, just like the palace compound in Chang'an compared with the earthen and tiled houses in the countryside.

Wei Youting didn't even move his eyelids, and still read the gift list respectfully, until Kars took out his gift, and the courtiers stared with wide eyes again.

It was a gold vessel, made of pure gold and made of huge sycamore wood, with intertwined branches, and the carving was very fine and beautiful. On the sycamore wood stood a huge and gorgeous bird, which looked like a phoenix in the Western Jin Dynasty, but it was slightly different. On the pure gold body, diamonds of various colors are inlaid on the wings and tail feathers of the bird. The large and small diamonds are arranged in various patterns, emitting dazzling light, and a pair of eyes of the bird are dotted on the upper body. For a good black gemstone, under the candlelight, gold and diamonds complement each other, which is too beautiful to behold.

"Prince Xirong gave the empress a phoenix phoenix phoenix tree, wishing the empress good health and the prosperity of the Western Jin Dynasty."

"It's so beautiful..."

The ministers couldn't help whispering to each other, their eyes were full of amazement, this piece of phoenix phoenix tree, the original price of gold is not counted, only the big and small diamonds, coupled with the lifelike craftsmanship, really count A priceless treasure.

Wang Ying's eyes flickered. Jade and so on are things that people in the Western Jin Dynasty are after. People in Miaojiang only recognize gold, so when she saw such a big Fengqi sycamore carved in pure gold, she couldn't help it. Zhu's body and mind were shaken, her eyes showed a look of admiration, but she thought in her heart, if she snatched everything from Ye Xiaoxiao, she must put this Fengqi sycamore in her palace, and return it to the palace. It should be placed in the center so that people can admire it.

And Xiuyi stared at her with wide eyes, only Meng Jiaoen and Lin Lanzhi didn't show much expression.

But Zhu Yunbi quickly put away her surprised expression, snorted coldly with disdain, cursed secretly: "Fox!", then turned her head and stopped looking.

Everyone had different expressions. On the high platform, the little woman sat indifferently, her expression remained unchanged, as if this priceless treasure was just the most common object in her eyes.

Kars was a little surprised by the empress's expression, but Ye Xiaoxiao was not too surprised, gold?She has seen a lot of gems, piled up in mountains at home, and there is no shortage of these things in the palace. The carving is actually not as amazing as Dongluo's immortal pine, so she really is not surprised. But this kind of person made Kars extremely shocked. He has seen many people, but so far he has only seen one person who can remain so calm in front of such a treasure, and that is sitting on the high platform now. little woman.

All the courtiers finished presenting their presents, and the women in the harem also sent their presents one after another. They are already married daughters, so it is not good to give too expensive things. Sending things that are more noble than those of the concubines, so most of the Xiuyis send good brocades, spices and other things for their daughters' households.

Lin Lanzhi gave Ye Xiaoxiao a jewelry dowry, which was made of golden nanmu wood, inlaid with gold and carved with peonies in full bloom. It was noble, elegant and exquisite. Wang Ying gave Ye Xiaoxiao an ivory comb, also inlaid with gold and silver. Luxurious and exquisite, Zhu Yunbi gave a handkerchief, and the others probably had these things too, but among a bunch of gifts from her daughter's house, there was only one thing that was completely different from the others, and it was very eye-catching among the bunch of powder fragrance. middle.

It was a clump of hair, tied with red thread, it was pitch black, smoother than satin, but with a somewhat weird aura, piled on top of a pile of presents.

Ye Xiaoxiao frowned slightly, the courtiers obviously also noticed this thing that shouldn't exist, they all looked weird, you look at me, I look at you.

Su Ziyu glanced at it, stood up with a frown, and asked, "Who is so presumptuous? To give such things to the empress?"

Hair and other things are usually only given between lovers, because there is an old saying that the body, hair and skin are received by the parents, so it is usually used as a private token for a lifetime, and if it is not used as a private token for a lifetime, the hair becomes a gift. The tool of the curse has become a representative of bad luck, and giving people hair is regarded as a conspiracy and malicious intention in the eyes of people in the Western Jin Dynasty and even the whole country.

Ye Xiaoxiao frowned slightly, and glanced at the positions of the repairers below with her peach blossom eyes. Even the meat bun Feng Yuyan's face changed slightly, staring at the women below, how dare someone dare to send her mother's hair as a gift on her mother's birthday? Birthday gift, it seems that some people feel that life is too ordinary!
The originally lively atmosphere in the Xuanzheng Hall dropped to freezing point in an instant, and everyone couldn't help but look serious. This kind of disrespectful behavior of Chi Guoguo challenging the authority of the empress on the empress's birthday is indeed frightening.

Even the three brothers of the Ye family couldn't help frowning and looked at the high platform, but saw their sister glanced at the lock of hair indifferently, and said lightly: "This thing is rare, I don't know who gave it to me Yes, let me also listen to the meaning of this gift?"

send hair?Then you have to give yourself a good explanation, don't think it's your birthday and you won't start killing, this thing is equivalent to curse killing, since it's aimed at her own life, why can't she protect herself and get rid of her future troubles?

A little bit of coolness gradually appeared in Taohua's eyes, and the expression of the tall and aloof little woman became colder and colder, but under the power and influence, it made people tremble even more.
