Chapter 199
"This harem belongs to the empress, and even more so to the king. You don't want to see who is the first in the king's heart." Concubine Cheng Shu looked away, but still did not move.

"His Royal Highness Sheng Wang is here." The eunuch who greeted him sang loudly.

Zhao Yuanshen walked in in a black suit with silver patterns.His facial features are profound, with sharp edges and corners, and the brows are full of heroic spirit, and his gaze shines brightly.Unlike Zhao Yuanxiang, he has more courage and vigor, and a calmness that does not match his age. He inadvertently reveals the sense of coercion of the superior when walking.

The courtiers and wives who were waiting for the toast to the left and right looked over. Unlike the excitement when Zhao Yuanxiang came, this time it was actually completely silent.The arrival of Zhao Yuanshen seemed to bring the spirit of war on the battlefield, and some people lowered their heads involuntarily after being caught by his gaze.

Xu Jiatong faced Zhao Yuanshen's back and could not see his face. At this moment, she paid more attention to the reactions of Zhao Yu and Queen Wu.

Queen Wu's expression changed when she heard "His Royal Highness Sheng Wang is here", the smile on her face became dry, her eyes dimmed, and a little of the fine wine in her hand even spilled out.On the other hand, Zhao Yu was the complete opposite. It could be seen that in addition to the word "satisfaction" in his eyes, there was also joy. The hale and hearty brilliance in those old eyes quietly bloomed as Zhao Yuanshen approached step by step.

"I have met my father and mother. Today is my mother's birthday banquet. My son is late, so I ask my mother to punish me." Zhao Yuanshen's calm voice was like a magnet, piercing through the barrier in silence and resounding in everyone's ears.

Queen Wu smiled, and her tone became rusty all of a sudden: "It's not too late, it's the right time, what punishment is not punished."

"You are not an untrustworthy person. I know that there must be a reason for you to act like this. You should tell me first." Zhao Yu spoke, playing with a string of rosary beads in his hand.

Zhao Yuanshen's gaze shifted, and it landed steadily on the shining coral tree. In silence, he shifted his gaze back again.

"It was given to me by Yuanxiang, and it's his filial piety." Queen Wu faintly felt that something was wrong, and immediately reminded her with a forceful tone.

Queen Wu didn't want Zhao Yuanshen to continue talking, but although she opened her mouth, she was quite sure, and her eyes shook for a while before she became firm.

Zhao Yuanshen raised his head, looked at Queen Wu's still charming face with complicated expressions, his forehead twitched slightly, and did not speak.

But Zhao Yuanshen's silence and secrecy at the moment became the best words, and someone already looked towards the coral tree.

"Treasures in the world are only owned by a few families. The things I found specially don't seem to be able to catch the eyes of Seventh Brother. I don't know what kind of birthday gift you can give. Is it really better than me?" Zhao Yuanxiang spoke leisurely, insinuating, and there was a lot of disdain in his words.

As soon as Zhao Yuanxiang's words came out, everyone's thoughts immediately came to life. People in the distance were whispering their conjectures, and they exchanged a few glances when they were close.

Xu Jiatong frowned slightly, could it be that the coral tree came from a wrong place, who took it from?The second half of Zhao Yuanxiang's sentence also seemed to be a pun, which seemed to imply that if Zhao Yuanshen could produce such an amazing treasure, it must have been taken from elsewhere.

Then don't laugh at a hundred steps at fifty steps, and simply don't say anything about anyone.If not, then the things that were brought out were not good things, let alone him.

Zhao Yu watched the reactions of the two sons silently, twisted the rosary in his hand faster, smiled silently for a while, and said, "It's not too late, I heard that you went to northern Xinjiang a few days ago, but you have What gain?"

The northern border of Datong is Antai, but the northern border of the Central Plains Dynasty has been plagued by wars for years. Now that the Central Plains is declining, generals and soldiers from subordinate countries are often recruited to conquer.Zhao Yuanshen didn't go there recently, but not long ago, he suddenly went there once, but it was only in a subdued manner, not because he was recruited.

Zhao Yuanshen took a step aside, and four servants brought up a box and a thing covered with a glass cover, and the latter was covered with a piece of red silk satin.The two people in front put the box on the red carpet and opened it. The box was full of silver fox fur.

"It's priceless..." A minister next to him whispered first.

"What's the value? His Royal Highness Sheng Wang's martial arts riding and shooting are even better than before." Some people guessed that Zhao Yuanshen personally dabbled in these.

"Sister Qinge, there is no silver fox in Datong, but is there any in Northern Xinjiang of the Central Plains?" Xu Jiatong asked in a low voice.

Under the low table, Ma Qinge tightly grasped Xu Jiatong's hand and shook it vigorously. She nodded vigorously, gritted her teeth and said: "Except for the northern border, it is the Western Region. There are many barriers along the way, and they are places that cannot be easily reached. Why? No one will take me there? No, I must tell the old man at home, if I don’t go once, I will regret it for the rest of my life..."

It was as if a burst of thunder roared past her head, Xu Jiatong was at a loss for what to say, when there was movement above the jade steps.

It was Zhao Yu who spoke, and he laughed wildly for a while, and he couldn't hide his gratification at all: "There are countless checkpoints to go to northern Xinjiang, you were able to go there without being summoned, and you went back and forth within five days. My son Yingwu! You and your people must have worked day and night to get back, my son's pure filial piety will be revealed day and night!"

"Although I live in the south in Datong, it is rainy and cold in winter. My son hunts silver foxes to make some winter clothes for his mother." Zhao Yuanshen didn't show off, but simply said a few words.

With Zhao Yu's words, everyone praised Zhao Yuanshen for his resourcefulness and heroism, and some even said that he hunted these silver fox furs himself. This kind of filial piety is better than any treasures made by skilled craftsmen.

Zhao Yuanxiang's expression turned cold, his jaw clenched, and he was no longer in high spirits and complacent like before.

"Yeah, Yuan Shen and Yuan Xiang are both filial. It's just that my concubine has been eating vegetarian food and praying to Buddha for a long time. Although this silver fox fur is good, it was obtained by killing. The concubine is not saying that Yuan Shen's birthday gift is not good, but that if the minister The concubine will definitely feel uneasy if she wears them on her body. Why don’t the concubines give them to the king? Yuan Shen, your father’s old wounds will always be sore in winter, and the queen mother will give them to your father. Don’t worry too much. I am relieved." Queen Wu said politely.

Queen Wu did eat fast and recite the Buddha's name, but she also had a few cloaks made of animal skins, and Zhao Yuanshen's gift was the only one she refused.Even if she really doesn't need these things, she shouldn't show him any sympathy in public.

Xu Jiatong thought about what Ma Qinge said, Zhao Yuanshen and Queen Wu were at odds, and even the absurd rumors leaked out, it seemed that it was not groundless.

At this time Zhao Yuanshen turned around, covered the box with his own hands, and turned back immediately.Xu Jiatong subconsciously wanted to see what he looked like, but his face just flashed, and his back was turned to her again.

"Hiss..." Something rang in Xu Jiatong's heart. Just looking at Zhao Yuanshen's back, she didn't feel it. Just now when Zhao Yuanshen closed the box, he bent down and lowered his figure a little bit. She felt a little familiar with that look.

"I understand." Zhao Yuanshen's voice was still steady, as if Queen Wu's words hadn't entered his heart at all.

Zhao Yu glanced at their mother and son, obviously a little displeased with Queen Wu's actions: "Alright, such treasures that can show our great unity and national prestige can only be worn on my body. After a while, you will talk to me, How did you hunt these silver foxes."

Zhao Yu opened his mouth to smooth things over, and everyone naturally had to cooperate. Chengyehou Zhao Yuanpu was always clever, exaggerating how good the silver fox fur was on Zhao Yu's body, and suggested some tailoring styles, even thinking of it as a trick. I need to ask for a few scraps to make the upper.

"Your Majesty loves King Sheng, as outsiders say." Xu Jiatong said in a low voice.

Ma Qinge smiled and smirked mischievously: "I think the king really wants to wear clothes made of silver fox fur. You don't know that when the sea was in trouble, our king was anxious to send a team to the big He robbed those pirates who had just robbed merchant ships from other countries. All the treasures that came back were put into the treasury, and most of them were later repaired to the Qiantang dam. It's still on the case in his imperial study."

The old and the young, the one who handles things absurdly but has big ideas, and the one who is cold on the outside and meticulous in his heart, is a perfect match.However, it can be seen that the most rare thing is that they did not plot against each other, but dealt with others together.

"Your Majesty is also pitiful, she makes you upset just looking at it." Xu Jiatong also shed tears of sympathy for Queen Wu.

At this time, everyone thought that the scene belonging to Zhao Yuanshen was about to end, and they had already forgotten the colored glass cover covered with bright red silk satin.

Zhao Yuanshen lifted his palm, and the silk satin flew into the air, like a flying bird, when it fell, it landed in the hand of the eunuch behind him.

"My son passed through the bandit's lair and killed the sand bandit Cao Ji, so he came to this golden Buddha. After careful inquiry, I found out that this Buddha statue was once a relic of the previous dynasty. When the Great Sage Empress was alive, it was enshrined in the Mingtang. The Mingtang caught fire and flowed into the people. , was obtained by Yidushi, and disappeared afterwards. I only heard that it last appeared in northern Xinjiang. Unexpectedly, it fell into the hands of Cao Ji's thief. This time, the son welcomed the Golden Buddha back and dedicated it to his mother. "Zhao Yuanshen's words were astonishing, and his eyes were fixed on Queen Wu's eyes.

Everyone was shocked. It was shocking to kill Cao Ji, the Sand Bandit who caused headaches for the Emperor of the Central Plains, and welcomed back the Golden Buddha.This was owned by the only empress of the previous dynasty. The emperor of the Central Plains claimed to be a descendant of the previous dynasty. In order to win the hearts of the people, he even changed his family name.Now that we know that the Golden Buddha was lost in northern Xinjiang, many people must have been sent to search for it over the years, but they all returned without success, but Zhao Yuanshen, who only stayed for five days, got it.

"Wang Qing, come and take a look." Zhao Yu said to Wang Qing, Wang Rou's father.

Not only is Wang Qing in charge of the household department, the Wang family has loved antiques since his grandfather's generation, and he also highly respects Buddhist affairs.Speaking of Buddha statues, I am afraid that no one in the Manchu Dynasty is more proficient than him.

Wang Qingzai looked and looked carefully, and even lifted the glass cover to check it carefully.The more he watched, the more excited he became, and suddenly he stepped back three steps, knelt down and kowtowed three times to the golden Buddha.

After that, Wang Qing stood up, knelt down to the top of the jade steps, and shouted: "Golden Buddha comes to Datong, God bless Datong, God bless the king, God bless the empress."

 Writing the scene of Gong Dou was really cool, and I remembered when I wrote "Gong Jia Fu", I was very happy!Please recommend tickets + rewards, hey, there are daily updates of [-] recently, keep going
