Do you know the long song of laughter?

Chapter 262 Beauty is a disaster
In the end, Liu Waner chose a hairpin, while Minglan chose a pair of earrings.

The hairpin costs one hundred and eighty taels, and the earrings are cheaper at eighty-eight taels.

Although Liu Waner said she wanted Li An to pay when she went out, it was just a joke.

She wouldn't care if it was cheaper, but for something worth nearly two hundred taels, how could she have the nerve to ask Li An to pay for it.

After agreeing on the price and asking the maid to wrap it up, she was ready to tell the maid to pay.

"Didn't I agree that I would pay?"

Li An stopped her and asked Desheng to pay.

"No, if I accept something so expensive from brother Zi Qian, my grandmother will scold me to death when I get back." Liu Waner shook her head quickly.

"Yes, brother Ziqian, we brought money." Minglan also said.

"This is what we agreed on." Li An shook his head.

However, Hepu Nanzhu is a tribute, and the good-quality mined pearls are sent directly to the palace, and only some defective products will flow outside.

The Lord of Jiacheng County looked livid and seemed to be at a disadvantage.

Although Tang's Jewelry Shop is a famous jewelry shop in Bianjing, it doesn't have the ability to get high-quality southern pearls.

Zhao Tong pulled County Chief Jiacheng and whispered a few words in her ear, as if to persuade her.

Li An picked up a pair of pearl pendant earrings from the tray with earrings and said, "Wrap these for me and pay for them together."

At first, Li An was a little surprised when he saw that Jiacheng County Lord had a conflict with others and was at a disadvantage.

Li An saw Liu Waner and Minglan having fun there and didn't know what was going on.

After the maid had packed up the jewelry, the three of them were about to leave when they heard a quarrel coming from outside.

Li An curled his lips. There were no artificial pearls in ancient times. In addition, the conditions in ancient times were limited, so pearls were very expensive.

Just listen to this.

"Your distinguished guest has good taste. This pair of earrings is made of gold and high-quality Hepu Nanzhu. The price is three hundred and twenty taels."

Upon hearing this, the maid happily took the earrings and asked the other maid to quickly get the box.

And Hepu Nanzhu has the reputation of being the best pearl in the world, so it is naturally not cheap.

It's not surprising to hear the name Rong Feiyan.

However, the head of Jiacheng County didn't listen at all. He pushed Zhao Tong away and said to the girl: "Rong Feiyan, let me say it again, give me this set of pearl agate head and face. I can pay double the money, otherwise you won't be able to leave today." !”

Desheng also quickly took out the banknote and paid.

Many guests in the hall were watching the excitement.

Liu Waner even whispered in Minglan's ear that she had taken advantage of her this time, which made Minglan extremely shy.

With doubts, the three of them walked out of the private room and saw County Lord Jiacheng stopping a girl about her age in the hall outside.

However, the two of them often fight, and Li An doesn't pay attention.

Seeing that Li An had already paid, Liu Waner and Minglan couldn't refuse.

Today's official family has no heirs, only one daughter.

But this daughter is already married.

But the girl Jiacheng County Lord stopped had her hair not tied up, and she was obviously not married yet.

As the head of Jiacheng County, there really is no unmarried girl in Bianjing who can challenge her.

But it wouldn’t be surprising if it was Rong Feiyan.

Concubine Rong was the favorite concubine of the official family, and her younger brother Rongxian was given the title of marquis. Although it was only a temporary title and his son had no inheritance rights, he was still a marquis after all.

In addition, the official family also gave Rong Feiyan Huagai as an imperial gift.

Some people may not know much about Huagai.

But in the Three Kingdoms, records about Liu Bei say that there was a big tree in his yard. The big tree had a very strange shape, like a canopy.

Then many people said that this family will have a noble person in the future.

Anyone who has watched some costume TV dramas should have seen it. When the emperor and queen were traveling, someone behind them was holding something like an umbrella. That was the canopy.

In fact, the real canopy was on the roof of a car or sedan, and it was not exclusive to the emperor. According to regulations, the emperor or noble official's car can have an umbrella cover, that is, a canopy.

But in the feudal dynasty, many things were not exclusive to the emperor at first, but gradually the restrictions became larger and larger, and fewer and fewer people could use them.

By the Song Dynasty, although Huagai was not exclusive to the emperor, officials were no longer qualified to use it.

Only the royal family is eligible to use it, and only royal family members such as kings and princesses and above can use it.

Although Princess Pingning has the title of princess, she is not qualified to have a canopy when traveling in the car.

However, the official family gave Rong Feiyan a canopy, which shows the favor of the official family to the Rong family.

If one put aside Prince Yong's status as one of the candidates for the crown prince, the head of Jiacheng County could not even afford to offend Rong Feiyan.

"I heard that the Tang Family Jewelry Shop got some high-quality agate and pearls and made a set of pearl agate headbands. Many people came to buy them, but none of them sold them. I didn't expect that a girl from the Rong family bought them. I heard that this set of headbands and agate headscarves was sold. It's worth thousands of taels. If the Lord of Jiacheng County pays double, wouldn't it be possible to make thousands of taels by changing hands? I will definitely agree," Liu Waner said in a low voice.

"Sister Wan'er, this is no longer about money." Minglan whispered.

"What do you mean?" Liu Waner asked confused.

"With so many people watching here, the reputation of both families is at stake. How could we give in just for a little money?" Minglan said.

Although the conversation between the two was not loud, Li An was nearby and could hear it clearly.

I have to say that Lan understands very clearly that for people who have reached a certain status, face is much more important than money.

What's more, neither the Rong family nor Prince Yong's palace is short of these thousands of taels of silver.

However, Li An felt that the so-called leadership was just an excuse for the fight between Jiacheng County Chief and Rong Feiyan.

The jewelry of Tangjia Jewelry Shop is indeed very unique because it combines the styles of the Tang and Song Dynasties very well.

But regardless of their identity as Rong Feiyan or the head of Jiacheng County, they can easily obtain jewelry made by palace craftsmen, so how could they start a quarrel here because of the same appearance.

Li An feels that the biggest reason is Qi Heng.

During this time, he also heard that the head of Jiacheng County and Rong Feiyan often had quarrels when they met.

In fact, in the original drama, Princess Yong sent someone to kidnap Rong Feiyan, which was a bit unexpected in itself.

If Rong Feiyan just liked Qi Heng, no matter how stupid Princess Yong was, she would not take action against Rong Feiyan.

On the contrary, Mrs. Wu could detect that Qi Heng liked Minglan. Why didn't Princess Yong attack Minglan?

Some people may say that Princess Yong does not feel threatened by Minglan because of her low background.

But this statement is somewhat untenable. After all, Rong Feiyan likes Qi Heng, but the two families are not engaged.

Bian Jing likes Qi Heng a lot, why didn't Princess Yong do anything to others?

Now that the two of them often fight because of Qi Heng, it can be explained.

After fighting for a long time, it is natural to get angry. Princess Yong did this more to vent her anger for her daughter.

It is said that beauty is a disaster for women. Qi Heng explained what it means to be a good man, but it is also a disaster.

Without Qi Heng, Princess Yong would not have taken action against Concubine Rong Yan.

Concubine Rong and her brother would not avenge their sister and help King Yan to rebel.

Without these, King Yong might have sat on the throne, and there would be nothing wrong with Zhao Zongquan.

In this way, Qi Heng can be regarded as overturning the country.

The hall was blocked, and Li An and the others couldn't go out, so they simply watched the excitement from behind.

Through the comments of the people next to him, Li An probably knew what happened.

Rong Feiyan came first and bought the set of pearl and agate headsets.

When they were about to leave, the brother and sister of Jiacheng County Lord came, and the purpose of Jiacheng County Lord was also to have this appearance.

As soon as she entered the door, she started asking. Rong Feiyan passed by and proudly told the Lord Jiacheng County that the things had been bought by her.

The head of Jiacheng County had no dealings with her, but seeing Rong Feiyan's proud look, he stopped her in anger and asked her to hand over her face.

The whole thing seemed to be a coincidence, but whether it was or not, Ang Lee didn't know.
