Chapter 602 Struggle
The poisoning of Princess Yong'an has not been investigated yet. It can be said that everyone in the palace is in danger, fearing that they will be dragged into this muddy water. The court has also become tense because of this incident.
But the aristocratic children who were used to being dissolute didn't care about this.
Even if the outside world is windy and turbulent, as long as there are elders in the clan supporting their heads, they will still entertain cats, dogs, and horses for enjoyment.
The Western Market in the royal capital was as lively as ever. Beside the wide street, a three-story luxurious pavilion stood out.
When you step into the gate, you can see that there are all kinds of antiques and treasures inside, many of which are rare things from foreign countries.
Go up the stairs, pass through the second floor, hand the post in your hand to the guard guarding the stairs, and then enter the highest floor.
Compared with the two floors below, the layout on the third floor is much simpler. There is only a high platform in the middle, and there are seats under it.
However, it is this seemingly simplest floor that is the most difficult and most noble place in this pavilion.
No matter how precious the things sold on the lower two floors are, they are just dead things, but what is sold here are living things.
At this time, there was a cage in the middle of the high platform, with a ferocious and vigorous sea turtle inside. The person in charge of singing and selling said loudly: "Will someone increase the price again?"
He asked three times in a row, but no one in the audience spoke again. He sang: "The top-notch Haidongqing belongs to Shangru Alang!"
After the servants carried the cage away, the singer protracted his voice and pretended to be mysterious: "This next one is even more rare. Dear guests, please seize the opportunity..."
As he spoke, he tapped his palms lightly, and a servant brought up another three-foot-square cage, which was also covered with a layer of black cloth.
Everyone in the audience couldn't help but look at it curiously. The singer-seller chuckled and blinked. He stretched out his hand and pulled, and the black cloth slipped away, revealing the auction items inside.
"Ouch——" Everyone couldn't help but marvel.
In the iron cage, a girl with snow-white skin and beautiful appearance was curled up.
When she raised her head in panic, she happened to reveal her pair of lake-green eyes, with tears in her panicked eyes, just like the surface of the Holy Lake of Gerencuo gently rippling in the breeze, which made people's hearts tremble. Can't help but follow.
The beauty of her face alone was not unusual in the eyes of this group of aristocratic children who were used to seeing all kinds of beauties. What was rare was the pair of lake-green eyes, which reminded people of the water of the holy lake at a glance.
Before the salesman had finished his introduction, someone started bidding impatiently: "I'll pay you five hundred gold!"
"I'll pay eight hundred gold!"
"A thousand gold coins!"
"Fifteen hundred gold!"
……
The price shouts came one after another. At this moment, the person sitting in the middle of the stage raised his hand and shouted: "Five thousand gold!"
Five thousand gold...this is not a small amount.
Everyone looked at each other in shock, but for a moment no one raised their voice to raise the price.
The singer-seller looked at the expressions of everyone in the audience with a smile in his eyes: "Alang of Cai Bang's family offered five thousand gold, but is there anyone who wants to increase the price?"
He paused for a few breaths, saw no one and said with a smile: "In that case, then this girl will go back..."
"Ten thousand gold!"
Before the singer finished his words, a voice came from behind the crowd and echoed in the empty hall.
Ten thousand gold! Everyone was in an uproar. Although this beauty was rare, five thousand gold was already a fortune. Which family could afford such a generous amount!
Looking back, I saw a young man wearing a brocade robe and beads hanging on his waist walking in leisurely.
It turned out to be the only son of the Dalon family! No wonder……
The Dalong clan, like the Nang clan, also belongs to the old Bon religion clan. In the past, they also made a lot of achievements following the reign of the King of Xibo.
The Dalong family was particularly good at doing business. As the old Bon tribe gradually lost ground during the dispute between Buddha and Bon, the Dalong family simply withdrew from the court and focused on business in recent years.
He is an old clan that has been rooted here since ancient times. Even though he has lost power in the court, his connections and power are unparalleled by ordinary merchants. He is more comfortable in doing business. Not only does he have caravans all over Xibo, but also It has contacts with Dazhou, Nanzhao, Niboluo, Tianzhu and other places.
However, the head of the Dalon clan had only one son in his lifetime, which made the other clan members covet the huge family property.
The Dalon family attaches great importance to their only son, and spend a lot of time cultivating him. It's a pity that this son has no talent in business matters.
The head of the Dalon family is helpless and doesn't want him to carry forward the family business. He just hopes that he can barely maintain it and expand the branches of the family earlier. If he drags his old bones, he may be able to hand over the family business to In the hands of grandchildren.
It was also because of this indulgent mentality that he developed an arrogant and domineering temperament. He often did things like bullying others and humiliating women.
Now that he has taken a liking to the green-eyed girl, he must be sure to win her.
I just made a bid for this one... I'm afraid it's hard to talk...
Everyone present does not know that the Cai Bang family and the Na Nang family have always been like fire and water. Now Princess Yong'an, who came to get married in Zhou Dynasty, was poisoned and assassinated in public, and the two princesses were involved, each testifying against the other. Not to mention the two of them or the family behind them, they were the two forces of Tantra and Bon. There has been a lot of friction recently.
The person who had previously bid for five thousand gold was the youngest brother of the second concubine Cai Bang's family. The one who bid ten thousand gold was Dalong Boche, who had always been on good terms with the Nang family's children.
These two are not going to fight here...
Thinking of this, the singer who was originally smiling couldn't help but feel a little moved.
He was about to open his mouth to smooth things over, but Cai Bangduoang interrupted him coldly: "Boche, are you deliberately going against me?"
Dalong Boche shrugged his shoulders and said with a smile: "How can I say that you are against you? In auctions, the highest bidder always wins. This is a truth that even a three-year-old child knows. Doang, you will not pay back Do you want me to teach you?"
"You!" Cai Bangduoang stood up abruptly, the anger spurting out of his eyes almost seemed to be real.
Due to the incident in the palace, Ajie was grounded, and Cai Bangshi became much more cautious in his actions. His family even warned him not to go out and cause trouble.
He had been bored at home for several days. Today, when no one at home was watching, he sneaked out with his followers to relax. Finally, he fell in love with a beauty, but Bo Che came out halfway. If he said he didn't mean it, who would believe it?
Seeing that he was speechless, Dalong Boche couldn't help but smile scornfully, stepped forward and said provocatively: "If you are not convinced, just increase the price, and I will stay with you until the end."
"Oh -" At this point, he suddenly lengthened his voice and stepped forward to take a look at Cai Bang. "Is it possible that you can't afford to raise the price? That's also true. Who doesn't know that you, Cai Bang, were just a poor family before?" , but it was only by relying on your sister to win the favor of the king that I achieved my current status."
He sneered: "You say you are a noble, but you are just relying on women to flatter you. Now that you are wearing rich clothes, some people look like dogs..."
"Boche!" Cai Bangduoang gritted his teeth. Seeing Dalong Boche's contemptuous look, he couldn't help but punch him in the face.
Dalong Boche wanted to dodge, but for some reason he suddenly became numb and unable to move. He received Cai Bangduo'ang's punch with a solid "bang" sound, and then his whole body fell uncontrollably towards the high platform. .
"Boom!" The back of his head hit the edge of the high platform, making a muffled sound.
Before the servants behind Dalong Boche could react, they saw him falling softly, and bright red blood gurgled from the back of his head, soaking the carpet under his feet.
"Ahhhh!" Someone in the crowd screamed, "He's dead!" (End of Chapter)
