Happy Little Scholar

【92zw】 "Your Majesty, don't you go out and take a look?"

In the Chongyuan Hall, among the curtains, the Queen came over holding the Crown Princess's hand and asked with a smile.

Emperor Jing shook his head and said, "If I go out, they won't be able to let me go. We'll wait until all the Liuli is sold."

Changde walked in from outside, bowed and said, "Your Majesty, the largest glazed Buddha statue has been bought by Fahua Temple for 30,000 taels of silver."

"Thirty thousand taels..."

A sneer appeared on Emperor Jing's face, and he said: "When I allocate 30,000 taels of military expenses to the Ministry of War, I must carefully consider it. These monks are such a big deal..."

"Qin'er, let's go out, it's very noisy here." The queen took the princess's hand and said with a smile: "Which glass jewelry do you like, tell the queen, and she will ask them to bring it over."

"No, my dear, I want to see my husband..."

The Queen clapped her hand and said, "Okay, the appreciation meeting will be over later, I will send someone to call him over."

Outside the curtain, a guard said to several monks who came over: "Masters, I'm sorry, this glass seems to be what the imperial concubine wants and is not for sale today."

"What?" At that moment, the expressions of the two monks changed.

For them, these glazed Buddha statues are the most important thing in the temple today. Fortunately, the Buddha statues are huge and expensive. Ordinary dignitaries cannot afford them, and few people will compete with them.

However, these Buddha statues are still too few. Dozens of temples are competing for ten glazed statues. Originally, there are many monks and few Buddha statues. Several large temples have already allocated them, but the imperial concubine suddenly wants to go to one, so someone must be empty-handed. And return------Who wants to be the monk who returns empty-handed?

"Amitabha..." One of the masters uttered the Buddha's name and said, "In that case..."

The monks breathed a sigh of relief. As long as someone quit, their Buddha statues would be saved.

The old monk looked solemn and said, "In that case, I, Wanhua Temple, will pay an additional five thousand taels for the Peacock King next to me."

A monk's expression suddenly changed and he said, "I'm afraid this is inappropriate. Didn't we agree that this Peacock King belongs to our Thousand Buddhas Temple?"

The old monk shook his head and said: "Amitabha, Your Majesty has said that the one with the highest price will get it. There is nothing wrong with what I did."

The monk gritted his teeth and said, "I will add another five thousand taels to Thousand Buddha Temple!"

…

…

The crowds in the hall were clearly visible, and around the few booths there were all bare heads.

On these booths, there are naturally Buddha statues and beads.

As for the glass jewelry, most of them were women. Of course, there were also many men around them.

On weekdays, His Majesty and the Queen invite banquets separately. Today's glass appreciation meeting is one of the very few occasions where men and women are not separated.

"Miaoyu, do you have any jewelry that you like? My second brother bought it for you." Chen Chong stood beside the white-haired woman and asked with a smile.

The woman shook her head and said, "As long as the jewelry can be worn, as long as three thousand taels can do a lot of things, forget it."

Chen Chong waved his hand and said, "You don't have to worry about that. Just tell the second brother which one you like."

The white-haired woman smiled and said, "If I don't like it, let's go over there and have a look."

Chen Chong nodded, and after the white-haired woman turned around, he waved to the person next to him, "Miaoyu just looked at this hairpin for a long time and bought it."

Chen Qing waved his hand and said, "I know, you go and accompany her."

"Three thousand taels."

"Three thousand five hundred taels." A young man stood next to the booth, glanced at the woman next to him, and said helplessly.

Hearing a voice coming from beside him, he was stunned for a moment. When he turned around, his expression changed and he immediately said, "Sorry, I made a mistake just now. We don't want this hairpin anymore."

The eunuch looked at it, and saw that many people around him who were eager to try had retreated, and said helplessly: "Three thousand taels for the first time..., three thousand taels for the second time..., three thousand taels for the third time---- --Congratulations to Mr. Chen, you can take this hairpin. Remember to send the money to the palace within three days."

"Su Su, do you plan to buy one back?" A woman named Shen Su stood at a certain platform, and a woman beside her asked softly.

"I won't buy it." She shook her head. It was easy to buy it, but how to explain it to her grandparents when she went back was the trouble.

"Yes, it's too expensive. Let's just take a look." The woman next to her glanced around, pointed not far away and said, "That Buddha statue over there is so beautiful, let's go and take a look..."

"Miaoyu, this Buddha statue looks pretty good. Would you like my second brother to buy it for you and put it in the Buddhist hall at home?"

The white-haired woman looked back at the middle-aged man and said helplessly: "No need, second brother. This Buddha statue costs twenty thousand taels of silver. Worshiping the Buddha requires sincerity. There is no need for such luxury."

Chen Chong waved his hand and said, "I just want to buy it because I am sincere."

He walked over and said, "The Chen Guogong Mansion wants this Buddha statue."

The imperial guard looked helpless and said, "Master Chen, this Buddha statue is what the imperial concubine wants."

"The Imperial Concubine?" Chen Chong frowned. If it were someone else, he could easily fight for it, but if it were the Imperial Concubine, it would be a bit difficult.

The guard pointed to one side and said, "Master Chen, there is another statue over there. Do you want to take a look?"

Several monks who were bidding looked over at the same time, making the guard tremble.

The white-haired woman walked closer to look at the Buddha statue, and a young woman came over from behind.

"What a beautiful Buddha statue..."

The woman exclaimed softly, and was about to get closer, when suddenly a huge force came from behind, causing her body to fall forward.

She almost crashed into the white-haired woman, who then crashed directly into the exhibition stand and fell to the ground.

Bang!

The incident happened suddenly, and a crisp sound rang out in the hall. Several guards around looked down and their faces turned pale instantly.

"Su Su!" A figure beside her immediately helped the woman up.

"Miao Yu, are you okay?" Chen Chong looked back and immediately rushed forward, asking anxiously.

Seeing blood oozing from the palm of the white-haired woman's hand, his face changed, and he immediately said: "Imperial Physician, call the imperial physician!"

"Broken, broken..."

A guard looked at the broken Buddha statue on the ground, his face pale and bloodless, and said in a trembling voice.

The glass statue worth 20,000 taels was broken, and it was the glass statue chosen by the imperial concubine. Who of the guards who were responsible for guarding it could take this responsibility?

The woman named Su Su also turned pale, and hurried to the white-haired woman and said, "I'm sorry, I'm so sorry, are you okay?"

"Imperial physician, where is the imperial physician!" Chen Chong pushed the woman away, his eyes bloodshot, and shouted loudly.

A figure walked out of the crowd, squatted down, held up the white-haired woman's hand and looked at it, saying: "It's just a slight scratch, it's okay."

Li Yi looked back at Li Mingzhu and asked: "Do you have a clean handkerchief?"

"I have!"

The woman named Susu immediately took out a handkerchief from her arms. Li Yi picked out a few tiny pieces of glass fragments and bandaged her simply, saying: "The imperial doctor will be here soon. After cleaning the wound, re-bandage it with clean gauze. Remember not to touch water in the next few days..."

Chen Chong glanced at Li Yi, his face turned cold, but he didn't say anything. He stood up, looked at the woman and asked: "What were you doing just now!"

"I, I..." The woman named Susu turned pale, shocked by his momentum, and couldn't speak.

"Mr. Chen is a dignified official, why does he have to bully a weak woman."

Li Xuan raised his eyebrows. Since this woman is very likely to be Shen Shu's sister and a member of the Shen family, he naturally couldn't remain silent.
