68

I'm a little bored. I decided to meet the guests. I don't know what kind of noble he is. I'm still quite curious.

At the door of the front hall, he met Qin Daoran, who was coming out of it. When he saw me, he saluted respectfully first, and then whispered to me, "It's from the palace, Yuqing Palace."

Yuqing Palace? Where does the prince live? Is it the prince coming? What is he doing here? I think of the adventure on New Year's Eve. He didn't find out that I peeked at his adultery and came to settle accounts, did he?

It's useless to meditate here. I decided to go in and have a look.

Open the door and sit on the main seat of the hall with a magnificent woman. She is slightly fat and looks like she has been well-fed for a long time. She has a calm temperament, showing the demeanor of being born in a large family. It is extremely noble and calm, and the view is admirable. This person is either someone else, or the crown princess Shi Shi, whom he saw at the palace banquet.

At that time, she had been sitting quietly beside the prince. It was easy for ordinary people to ignore her, but I didn't. I was attracted by her calmness and looked at her twice, so now I recognize her at once.

I stepped forward and saluted her.

She smiled gently when she saw me and said in a gentle and somewhat rigid voice, "Chuntao, is it also called Taoer? I'll just call you Tao'er!"

I nodded, but I was a little surprised. The two of us don't seem to know each other that well, do we? I didn't even say anything! Is it because Kangxi called me Taoer, so she also called me?

I sat in her right seat and said, "The crown princess is noble, and she usually takes care of the big and small things of the whole Yuqing Palace. When idle people can't see the crown princess easily, it's a great honor for Taoer to see the crown princess in the house today!"

I want to know why she suddenly came to the Nine Brother's House.

The crown princess smiled, picked up the tea and took a sip, and said, "Tao'er is really cute. No wonder Jiudi is so precious to you! These days, the women in the palace are clamoring for him to take you to the palace to play with them for a few days, but he said that you are young and don't know the rules of the palace, and you are afraid that you will cause trouble for him. Be sure to wait for him to finish and then take you to the palace. She covered her mouth and smiled and continued, "In my opinion, the ninth brother is reluctant to send this man to the palace. Only when he puts it in his own house can he rest assured."

Oh? These days, the boring women in the palace want me to go to the palace to accompany them to relieve their boredom, and let Yin Zhen push them? Thank you, my dear husband. You are really my confidant! If I really enter the palace, I will not be regarded by those women as monkeys performing in the circus, giving them wine tasting, treasure appreciation and so on every day.

I laughed and said, "What did the Crown Princess say? How can the ninth master not bear to part with me? I'm lazy and stupid. I can't do anything wrong except playful things. It's usually better to be managed by him. If I enter the palace, he is afraid that I will commit this problem again and humiliate him!"

The crown princess smiled and said, "Your husband and wife even speak in the same tone!" Then he turned to the topic: "I'm here today to ask Taoer to do me a favor and identify a baby for me. I don't know if Taoer can help me. With that, she took out a white magnolia from her sleeve. Please help me see the color and color of this mutton fat jade Zanzi..." She hesitated for a moment and finally said, "Possible origin."

It turned out to be here to identify treasures.

I had a good impression of the crown princess, so I took Zandzi happily and looked at it carefully.

This color is white and pure, slightly transparent, very much like mutton white jade, but it feels better than mutton jade. It is like fat, like paste, condensed and moist, delicate and pure, and there are traces of brushing.

I raised my head and said to the crown princess, "This is not mutton jade."

The princess was shocked and asked inexplicably, "Isn't it mutton jade? This color is so pure white and warm. Why is it not mutton jade?

The best white hibiscus stone is often mistaken for mutton fat jade, and it is inevitable for people who don't know how to make mistakes.

I patiently guided, "Princess, what kind of stone is similar to mutton jade?"

She thought for a moment and said, "White agate?" He shook his head again to deny his statement: "Agate does not have such a fine touch as curd."

She can't even remember the hibiscus stone? What a strange!

I thought about it carefully in my heart. Ah, I suddenly remembered that hibiscus stone was first mined in the late Ming Dynasty and early Qing Dynasties. At first, it was not paid much attention to it. It was not until the Qianlong period that it gradually became famous in the world.

No wonder the crown princess did not know that she was famous in later generations and almost subverted the jade culture for thousands of years, and developed a new view of "precious stone but light jade".

Most of the dignitaries at this time have never heard of Hibiscus Stone at all!

I patted my forehead and said, "Concubine, forgive me. Tao'er forgot that the princess was born in a famous family and had never seen such an ordinary folk stone. This Zan stone material is picked from the mountain next to Shoushan Village in Fujian Province, which is called Hibiscus Stone. This stone is a treasure in the hibiscus stone--the general cave hibiscus stone. It looks like jade, and the touch is better than jade, which is its main feature.

The princess said, "Hibiscus stone? I have never heard of it! However, the stone is of excellent quality, which is almost comparable to jade.

This princess also seems to be knowledgeable, but she has never seen this stone.

I nodded and said, "It's a good product, but it's a pity..."

The Crown Princess said strangely, "What a pity? How to understand Tao'er's words?

"I mean, it's a pity that the material is so good, but the carving is very rough." I picked up Zanzi with two fingers and pointed it to the crown princess. You see, this knife work (to be continued, if you want to know what will happen, please log in., more chapters, support the author, support the genuine reading!)

c The line is not smooth and fine enough, and the technique is a little clumsy. It's not the clumsiness of natural carving, but the feeling of clumsiness caused by strange techniques. If a fine knife is added to these two positions, the appearance of the magnolia flower will be greatly improved.

The crown princess nodded frequently. She said, "So, does this thing come from the folk?"

I was stunned. She seemed to care very much about the origin of this thing.

I looked at her face and said carefully, "This stone comes from Shoushan Village, Fujian Province, and the carving is not much like the method in the palace."

The crown princess nodded intentional, turned to start a family business with me, and no longer mentioned Zanzi's matter, which made me relieved.

It seems that the crown princess is also a good person to observe the color. She saw that I was careful about this problem, so she turned the topic.

Princess and Princess chatted with me for a while before driving back to the palace.

It is not easy for a woman living in the palace to leave the palace once. Is such an inconspicuous thing worth coming out? I don't know what's involved in this thing. I have some doubts.

Suddenly, I remembered that I brought out a piece of paper from Tai□ on New Year's Eve that day. After returning home, Yin Zhen hurriedly asked me to go to Changluxuan. I didn't have time to look carefully, so I put it in my practice room.

I hurried back to my Lingxue Pavilion. In the past few days during the Spring Festival, Yin Zhen left me in Changluxuan, and I didn't have time to come back to see it at all.

I opened the box of paper, and it was still lying quietly at the bottom of the box, and no one moved.

I took it out, opened the origami, took a breath of cold air.

It's not scary, it's a surprise!

It is rectangular, vertical, and slightly larger than the palm of the hand. The paper is yellow, which shows that it is a long time ago. There are ancient engraved words and patterns on it. The first row is the pattern of ten copper coins; in the middle is a little vague, and you can see a "jiao", a "jia", a "chuan" and a connected "consistent literary province" words; at the bottom is a row of portraits and architectural patterns, which look like the clothes of the Song Dynasty people.

How can it be like the world's first note in the world that I have seen pictures in modern times? If it is really a Chengdu Jiaozi, then it is priceless. This kind of paper money was initiated by 16 private banks at that time. It was only issued by merchants, and the printing volume was very small. Very few have been passed down to later generations. It is said that the only one that has been handed down is collected by a Japanese. And this hand in my hand, looking at the printed format, is obviously earlier than the age of the official handi in the Japanese collection.

It seems that the palace did not enter in vain this time. In addition to getting a rare black pearl, it also unexpectedly harvested the world's earliest banknote.

I re-collected it. This time it is extremely careful, because if this Jiaozi can survive, it will make a huge contribution to the Chinese archaeological culture of later generations.

It suddenly occurred to me that the son was originally in the hands of the prince, but why didn't he see it in later generations?

Was it the loss of this cultural relic caused by the prince's loss of power, or was it destroyed or even burned by the later invaded Eight-Nation Alliance like treasures in countless palaces?

The real reason is no longer verified, but when I came here, I got this heirloom by chance. I must be responsible to the Chinese people, preserve this thing, and strive to pass it on to future generations.

As soon as I put this thing away, I heard Xiaohe report again that there was another person from Princess Hejing's house in the east of the city, and he also wanted to see me.

What's going on today? In the past, the nest was rusty and moldy in the house, but no one paid attention to it. Why did someone keep asking to see me today?

I went to the front hall and asked me to identify the treasure.

I made an appraisal, and it was time to turn the lamp.

After a while, Yin Yu came back, and he sent someone to call me to Chang Lvxuan.

As soon as I heard that it was him, I was relieved. When Xiao He came to me, he thought there was something for me to appraise the treasure!

I hummed the song easily and swung into Chang Lvxuan's study. At this time, Yin Zhen was here.

Yin Zhen sat in front of the case, saw me, and waved to me to go there. As soon as I went there, I was caught on my lap by him. He hugged me and asked, "How is Taoer at home today?"

I leaned against his arms and nodded.

He raised my chin, stared at me with cunning eyes, and said, "The little female wolf's ability to identify treasures is very famous. Today, several people want me to take you to their house as a guest. I think the main thing is that I want you to help them find their new baby. What does Taoer mean?

He asked me what I meant? That is to say, he has agreed, otherwise he won't ask me at all and go back.

I said, "What can Taoer mean? Of course, everything is up to me!"

He bent the corners of his mouth and pointed his finger at my nose and said, "Only Xiao Taoer knows my mind best in this house!"

I smiled. In addition to having children, the value of ancient women was limited to this. I secretly drank medicine and didn't give birth to a baby for him. If I don't behave well, I'm afraid there will be no merit.

He picked up two silk packages from the case and said, "Taoer will taste them."

Hearing this, I almost fainted in his arms. Why is it treasure appreciation again?

Yin Zhen took me to several noble mansions in the capital as guests, and the treasures identified were quite valuable. There are two of them that I almost want to leave on the spot, but in view of Yin Zhen's consistent ** power, I still didn't dare to take action in front of him.

After that, more and more people asked me to help Baobao by visiting or inviting me to visit the house. Yin Zhen began to get a little annoyed.

Once when he was with the eighth brother and others, he said, "These guys, baby, keep it at home. You have to ask my Taoer to identify what's going on!" He turned around me and smiled and said, "My Taoer is still a treasure. She needs to keep it well. How can she always take it out to appraise the treasure?"

His actions made me blush. This invisible prodigal son dares to do so in front of people!

The eighth brother was not surprised and smiled lightly, and the two bad guys began to make fun of us and mentioned topics such as the golden house of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty.
