Chapter 101
As soon as the words fell, Zhang Xuan's face was full of empathy for the sake of the emperor, and that gentle expression made it difficult for people to see that she was specifically setting up a trick for Shangguan Lianniang.Only Shangguan Lianniang could see how much vicious thoughts were hidden in Zhang Xuan's seemingly clear eyes.

Following Zhang Xuan's words, everyone's eyes fell on Shangguan Lianniang.For a long time, Shangguan Lianniang was just a boudoir lady who was proficient in all kinds of piano, chess, calligraphy and painting in the hearts of everyone.If it weren't for the brothel incident before, the door of Zuo Xiang's mansion would have been trampled on.Everyone didn't really believe that Shangguan Lianniang would understand tricks, but with a father like Shangguan Zhenyu, what if he taught him?

Ever since, everyone felt a little bit of luck in their hearts.It's true that they don't want Shangguan Lianniang to shine, but what they are facing now is a foreign enemy. No matter how serious the internal conflict is, they have to close the door and resolve it by themselves, right?

The emperor and everyone else had the same thoughts. He looked at Shangguan Lianniang with majesty in his eyes: "Miss Shangguan, would you like to give it a try?" Although it was a question, the emperor's tone was full of oppression. Shangguan Lianniang is not allowed to refuse.

"Your Majesty..." Shangguan Zhenyu frowned, feeling very worried.Others don't know, but he knows very well that he has never taught Shangguan Lianniang tricks.If Shangguan Lianniang failed, the emperor would definitely hold a grudge. Coupled with Qi Muyuan's threat to the emperor, the emperor might try his best to trouble Qi Muyuan and Shangguan Lianniang in the future.

However, before Shangguan Zhenyu finished speaking, Shangguan Lianniang stood up abruptly.

Shangguan Lianniang was born beautiful, but today she went into the palace and specially dressed up, and when she stood up, everyone realized that Shangguan Lianniang was not as beautiful as a woman in the world today!
Shangguan Lianniang chuckled, and tilted her head to look at Zhang Xuan: "Since Miss Zhang adores my wife so much, how can my wife insult Miss Zhang? Your Majesty, let my wife try."

While speaking, Shangguan Lianniang's whole body seemed to glow with dazzling white light, her aura was sacred and inviolable.

Shangguan Zhenyu wanted to say something, but seeing Shangguan Lianniang's determined expression, he also stopped thinking.

Walking out of the banquet, everyone's eyes followed Shangguan Lianniang's walking.

Looking at Li Huaguo, Shangguan Lianniang said: "My lord, please hold on to the wooden box tightly."

After all, with a flash of silver light, a layer of the wooden box was cut off, revealing the contents inside!Shangguan Lianniang's movements were so fast that everyone didn't see clearly at all, and didn't know what the silver light was, and everything was settled.

But there were also sharp-eyed people who found that the chipped part of the wooden box was smooth and smooth, and guessed that it was made by a sharp weapon.

Li Huaguo stared blankly at the wooden box, and said: "This is the work of Master Xuanjizi, Madam, you actually destroyed it with a knife!"

Because of the shock, Li Huaguo's voice was so loud that everyone present fell into their ears.Although many people had already guessed what method Shangguan Lianniang used, they still couldn't believe what Li Huaguo said.

Who is Xuanjizi, a master of tricks, but now his work has been roughly cut to pieces by a woman with a knife!
Different from everyone's shock, Qi Muyuan was not surprised at all, and even admired in his eyes.Over there, He Yuhua made no secret of his interest!

Shangguan Lianniang looked indifferent, as if she didn't care how much power Xuanjizi had.She lifted the lid of the wooden box, and all the contents inside were immediately revealed to everyone.

It was an extremely exquisitely crafted phoenix hairpin, made of pure gold, and inlaid with an unknown gem that shone with a strange light.Under the illumination of the light, the gemstone is even more shining, which is too beautiful to see.

However, this kind of gem that has never been seen in the eyes of others makes Shangguan Lianniang feel funny.

No one else has seen it, but she has seen it a lot in her previous life.I don't know where He Lianjue found the diamond, but he also knows how to set it on the jewelry.

"It's just an object. If it breaks, it will break. If Master Xuanjizi is really proficient in mechanisms, he probably wouldn't care about this thing that only took a few days to make." Shangguan Lianniang chuckled, not at all. Feeling a little ashamed for his actions.

Hearing her words, everyone came back to their senses and immediately applauded Shangguan Lianniang, even the emperor showed a happy smile.

Aren't you, Xi Cang, proud of having a master like Xuanjizi?But so what, no matter how delicate an object is, it can't beat a girl's knife?Li Huaguo deserved to take this thing to Daxia to show off!
The emperor laughed three times, seeing Li Huaguo's expression as if he had eaten a fly, he was very happy: "It's no wonder that she is Qi Aiqing's wife, she has a quick mind! Since this wooden box was opened by the lady, then the contents inside will belong to you." Madame!"

Seeing the diamond for the first time, the emperor was also a little curious, and was moved to hold it in his hand and observe it carefully.But in order to disgust Li Huaguo and Li Huaguo, no matter how curious the emperor was, he couldn't hold back, it was just a piece of jewelry.

It's just that this piece of jewelry was specially sent by Xi Cang to Da Xia to show his sincerity, and he wanted to tie the two countries together, so it should be worn on the queen's head.Now being given a minister's wife by the emperor, Xi Cang has suffered a dark loss indeed.

The queen's complexion is a little ugly. Which woman doesn't love beautiful jewelry?She thought the emperor would give it to her, but she didn't want to give it to Shangguan Lianniang.In this way, she disliked Shangguan Lianniang even more.

Shangguan Lianniang faced the emperor, and said: "The emperor's gift, the minister's wife is naturally grateful. It's just that this hairpin is exquisite, and it is a tribute sent by Xicang. It should be given to the empress to enjoy, and the minister's wife is ashamed."

It's not that Shangguan Lianniang deliberately disgusted the queen, it's really that she has no use for this thing, it took up space for nothing.Moreover, the phoenix hairpin was given by the emperor, if something goes wrong, it will be an unnecessary trouble, why bother?
The emperor did not expect Shangguan Lianniang to refuse, but the word "tribute" in those words was to please the emperor.Historically, it was only the vassal state that paid tribute to the main state to be called a tribute. Shangguan Lianniang put Xi Cang in an inferior position in one word.

In this way, the emperor now sincerely wants to bestow that phoenix hairpin to Shangguan Lianniang.

"Ma'am, you're welcome, the left and right are just objects."

Objects only...

Hearing these words, Li Huaguo even wanted to die, the diamond on the phoenix hairpin was such a rare thing that Xi Cang spent a lot of effort to find.But in the eyes of Emperor Daxia, it was worthless!
With the emperor's words, Shangguan Lianniang couldn't refuse anymore, so she also accepted.

Then some court ladies went to get the casket in Li Huaguo's hand.Li Huaguo's face was ugly, but he held back and handed the box to the maid.

After the two returned to their seats, He Yuhua raised his glass to Shangguan Lianniang, his eyes were filled with admiration: "The general's wife has such a clever idea, I admire you!"
