After being forced to marry as a substitute, I became famous in the limbo

Chapter 15: Hairpin Auction ([-])
Jiang Ning followed Mu Jingzhao's line of sight, and saw that on Mu Jingzhao's dragon robe, the vivid golden dragon face was imprinted with dots of traces on the apple core.

Her heart skipped a beat, the emperor's clothes must be priceless, she can't afford it.

Before Mu Jingzhao could speak, she hurriedly stepped forward with a smirk, covering the mottled mark on the golden dragon to conceal it.

"Your Majesty! You are still so naughty. I know you want to be a concubine, but you shouldn't bump into concubines in broad daylight!"

Jiang Ning shouted loudly, his voice was so high that everyone in the palace could hear it.

Mu Jingzhao felt so useless, and was about to speak out, but unexpectedly, the crowd who were sitting and chatting in the room rushed out of the door in unison.

"See the emperor." The workers knelt down on the ground.

Such a change made Mu Jingzhao's anger shut back.

"Excuse me." Mu Jingzhao's face was still ugly.

Jiang Ning walked up to Mu Jingzhao in two steps, cleared his throat, and said in a loud voice: "The emperor is concerned about the great efforts you have made to maintain the harmony of the inner court, so he specially came to Leng Palace to participate in the auction with everyone, and listen to everyone's thoughts and wishes. !"

She spoke a long paragraph emotionally, but did not get the expected response for a long time.

The palace man in front of her knelt down on the ground all the time, without turning a glance.

The screen fell into a brief silence.

Jiang Ning, who had witnessed all this, sighed silently.

A stupid emperor like Mu Jingzhao who can offer to buy his own life with money must have no idea how to maintain a relationship with his servants.

But in another way of thinking, he is so stupid that he can buy his own life with money.

Then, it must be very easy to cheat his money.

Thinking of this, Jiang Ning suddenly became enlightened.

With a smile on her face, she continued to flatter her with all her strength, "Your majesty listens to public opinion and is considerate of your servants. You are really a rare wise gentleman! It is an honor for this palace, for everyone, and for the country to have such an emperor." !"

After Jiang Ning's voice fell, he stretched out his hands and began to applaud.

Helpless, she was still holding the apple core she had just eaten, so she couldn't move and couldn't make a sound.

The crowd was still silent.

Jiang Ning turned his head to look in the direction of Zheliu, and mouthed: "Quick—drum—applause—"

Zhe Liu understood, immediately stood up and applauded loudly.

"Having such an emperor is the blessing of the servants and the country!"

The crowd applauded like thunder, and the palace people responded in unison, "Long live the emperor——"

There were bursts of cheers, and Jiang Ning smiled contentedly, then carefully turned to look at Mu Jingzhao behind him.

Seeing the ice and snow melting on Mu Jingzhao's face, he has no time to care about the stains on his body.

Knew it.Jiang Ning secretly praised himself for his wit, this man was made happy, and the money came naturally.

"That's all." Mu Jingzhao cleared his throat, raised his voice, and spoke in a clear voice, "Excuse me. You don't have to be restrained, just do as usual."

The crowd fell silent for a moment.

"Your Majesty, please come inside!"

Following Jiang Ning's words, the crowd automatically made way for Mu Jingzhao.

Under Jiang Ning's leadership, Mu Jingzhao walked into the cold palace.

After the crowd, Zhe Liu and Lu Feng hurriedly followed.

"Why did the emperor come?"

Zhe Liu looked puzzled, she muttered something to herself, and then, she suddenly thought of what Jiang Ning said yesterday.

"It turns out that this is the real rich person that the empress said."

Jiang Ning led Mu Jingzhao to the front of the crowd, grabbed an empty bench and placed it beside Mu Jingzhao.

"Your Majesty, please sit down."

The smile on Mu Jingzhao's face gradually froze, his eyelids twitched as he looked at the short, bare bench beside him.

When did this real dragon emperor, who is under one person and under ten thousand people, sit on such a low bench?

Seeing that Mu Jingzhao was still not moving, Jiang Ning lowered his voice and said, "Of course you have to do a full set of acting. Your majesty is a wise king who is considerate of his servants."

Mu Jingzhao glanced at her, and finally sat down without saying a word.

Mu Jingzhao was tall, and he was wronged on a small wooden bench, looking pitiful and somewhat funny.

"Why do you keep holding this apple core?"

Mu Jingzhao looked up at her, his gaze was right on the bare apple core in Jiang Ning's hand.

Brown spots of different shades appeared on the surface of the apple core, which looked really unsightly.

"The hygienic environment of this cold palace must be maintained by the concubine. It is the most basic thing not to litter."

"Why don't you ask someone to clean it?"

"How much manpower and financial resources will be spent hiring people, and it still can't solve the problem from the root cause."

Jiang Ning looked at him with a more helpless expression. He is obviously a knowledgeable emperor, so why doesn't he understand such a simple truth?

But soon, Jiang Ning understood.

Mu Jingzhao is such a high-ranking person, so he naturally doesn't need to worry about such trivial matters by himself.

He only needs to order to take good care of the sanitation of the palace, knowing that the palace will always be clean and tidy, and that's it.

Jiang Ning stopped talking to him, and walked aside to throw away the apple core in his hand, preparing for the auction not long ago.

After Mu Jingzhao took his seat, the palace people began to return to their seats one after another. From time to time, new palace people walked in talking and laughing, but they quietly closed their mouths when they saw the upright figure in front of the crowd.

Jiang Ning sat down on his chair, quietly waiting for the audience to arrive.

At that time, Mu Jingzhao was still curled up on the small wooden bench with difficulty, restless.

Inexplicably, there was a cry of great revenge in her heart.

Jiang Ning looked at the sky and knew in his heart that the time had come.

She picked up the tea on the side and downed it in a big gulp, cleared her throat, and then stepped down decisively.

"Yesterday, I informed you about the origin of the peacock feather hairpin and about today's auction."

She picked up the peacock feather hairpin at hand, lifted the cover, and put it aside.

"I think everyone has an ideal price in mind." Jiang Ning glanced at the bulging money bags beside everyone in the palace, and smiled even more on his face.

"Not much to say, let's start now."

Jiang Ning dropped the board decisively, "The starting price is one tael of silver."

However, at this moment, under the pressure of Mu Jingzhao, the palace people no longer had the excitement and joy of yesterday.

"The starting price is one tael of silver." Jiang Ning repeated again.

The workers looked at each other in blank dismay, but did not dare to bid.

"Ten taels." At the end of the crowd, Lu Feng replied in a low voice.

Everyone turned their heads to look at Lu Feng, Lu Feng's face turned red from so many stares, and he retracted his neck in embarrassment.

As for Zhe Liu, when he met Lu Feng's face, his face showed a little shyness.

Jiang Ning let out a sigh of relief, and continued to speak with a smile on his face.

"Lu Feng, offer ten taels, is there a higher price?"
