Chapter 475, Betting on Top Grade Yellow Jade



Chapter 475, Betting on Top Grade Huang Fei

"Have you not seen the water of the Yellow River coming from the sky, rushing to the sea and never returning?"

Qian Shiyue chewed on this poem carefully, and she seemed to see the surging river water in front of her eyes, rushing and roaring towards the sea.

Such a magnificent picture can be sketched out with just one line of poetry, which shows the strength of her writing and the overflowing talent.

She held the brush in her hand and wrote down the beautiful characters repeatedly, but she rejected them one by one and then crossed them out!

Her pretty face was tangled and embarrassed.

No matter how she wrote, it was not right, and no words were worthy of such a poem.

Princess Liuli raised her face with a proud look, "It seems that the talented women of you Great Xia Dynasty are just like this. This poem is just something that I casually thought of, but it stumped you all."

That's right.

She is the only girl of destiny.

None of these paper people can match her!

"That's not right." Xia Wanwan shook her head and looked at Princess Liuli like a fool.

Princess Liuli frowned, "Why is it wrong?"

"Sister Qian is not wrong, she is thinking, what good will it be for you to win! It was you who declared war, and the spoils and conditions were not mentioned. How dare Sister Qian write it?"

Xia Wanwan said crisply.

At the beginning, there was no condition for winning or losing. He just came up and competed with a poem. He just wanted to show off the wisdom of the ancients that he copied and let himself be in the limelight.

It was a matter of face for both countries. If Donglin did not take the initiative to put forward the conditions and the spoils of winning or losing, who would not hesitate to accept the challenge?

It seems that the logical thinking of this Princess Liuli is not very good.

Yes, what kind of logic can a person who relies on the poems he memorized to show off have.

Xia Wanwan's words immediately gave Qian Shiyue a stepping stone.

After Qian Shiyue realized this problem, she did not write, but just raised her head silently to look at Princess Liuli and the King of Donglin.

She didn't know what would happen if she lost, so how could she pick up the pen so carelessly.

"You Donglin people, you wouldn't be so stingy that you don't even have any spoils of war, right? It's such a big country, not a poor and cold place, can't you even produce something good? It's better to state the conditions first and then let Miss Qian write it down!"

Minister Liu finally found the opportunity, and he immediately spoke up to help.

This group of Donglin people caused his Ministry of Rites to mess up their work, and he would never let them off easily!

The face of the King of Donglin sank, he clapped his hands, and soon someone brought up a stone.

No, it's not an ordinary stone.

It's a jadeite rough stone that is bigger than a human head. The stone skin has been peeled off, revealing the extremely transparent water quality and color of the jadeite.

This is.

This is a piece of top-grade yellow jadeite!!!

The person who was most excited when seeing this yellow jadeite for the first time was Concubine Jing, who was addicted to gambling in the harem of the Great Xia Emperor!

Concubine Jing almost rushed forward, but fortunately the palace maid held her back and she did not step out.

She pointed at the yellow jadeite and said excitedly, "I have been gambling on jadeite for more than ten years, and I have never seen yellow jadeite of such quality. It is golden yellow all over, with rich colors. Usually, yellow jadeite the size of a fingernail is extremely difficult to find."

"Not to mention such a big one? So big!"

Concubine Jing used her hands to measure the size of the jadeite in front of her.

She was simply stunned.

“You know, the jade used by dignitaries on weekdays is usually green and white, and purple and spring-colored ones are relatively rare. Generally, there is colorless with some kind, or color without some kind.”

“If green, white, and purple can be of ice quality, they are also priceless. However, this piece of yellow jade is not only a rare one, but also of ice quality or above. Such a big piece can be made into a lot of jewelry!”

Concubine Jing continued, her eyes lingering on the piece of yellow jade.

Such a good thing, she would be rich if she could get a ring egg-shaped one!

What she said was very pertinent.

There were also many women who looked at the piece of yellow jade in amazement, and suddenly felt that the green jade they were wearing was tacky.

Although the empress dowager had seen many luxurious things, she couldn’t help but be slightly stunned.

This is a big deal!

Although they are not short of it in Daxia!

The King of Donglin said with a smile, "This piece of jade is extremely rare in Donglin, not to mention Daxia. Since you have people who know the goods in Daxia, I will not introduce it in detail."

Then, the King of Donglin clapped his hands again, and a man walked to his side.

The King continued, "The best things must be paired with the best carvers. This is the most outstanding carver in Donglin. If the ladies of Daxia can win the glass, then this jade will be given to Daxia. Daxia can only tell the carver how to carve it."

As soon as these words came out, the people present were talking about it.

Liu Wan said calmly, "Give them jade, then give them jade, but why do they need their carvers to carve it? What do they want to do?"

"You're right. Even if we win, the carvers will tamper with the jade and carve something shameful on it. Isn't that another slap on our dynasty's face?"

Xia Siheng's face was solemn. He took a sip of wine and thought about how to deal with it. m.ζíNgYúΤxT.иεΤ

"Not only that, I can also promise a condition to the winner." The King of Donglin smiled, with a plan in his eyes, and turned to look at the carver.

The carver nodded.

They spent a lot of thought to humiliate the Great Xia Dynasty.

Something was hidden in the yellow jade. As long as the carving was successful, the words belonging to Donglin would emerge, which would give the Great Xia Dynasty a bad impression.

The whole audience was immediately excited.

This was a condition from a foreign ruler. Who would dare to accept it?

If you really accepted it, it would be treason. If you didn't accept it, it would be disrespectful to the distinguished guest. It was a dilemma. Isn't this putting Miss Qian on the fire?

Everyone was sweating.

Qian Shiyue's hand holding the pen was already sweating. She was very nervous and couldn't move forward or backward.

Such a timeless verse, no matter how she corrected it, it would be inferior.

If she lost, she would lose the face of the Great Xia Dynasty.

If she won, she would be roasted on the fire by the Donglin people, giving them the opportunity to humiliate the Great Xia.

She showed an embarrassment and looked up at the Queen Mother. The

Queen Mother nodded at her.

Qian Shiyue picked up the pen and wrote again, but she didn't know how to write after writing just three words.

This poem is amazing!

"Hahaha, you are a talented woman, but you can't even do this!" Princess Liuli and the envoys behind her all laughed out loud.

Qian Shiyue gritted her teeth and responded with a sentence "Don't you see the dead tree flowers blooming from the ground, and the flowers blooming towards the sky."

They are both about scenery, so it should be considered correct.

The moment the rice paper was lifted up, the whole room burst into applause.

"She is indeed a talented woman, the dead tree blossoms, from the ground to the sky, what a lively poem!" Liu Wan affirmed it.

But after Xia Wanwan read it carefully, she shook her head slightly, "It's far from it!"

Compared with Li Bai's original work, it is far worse.

If she doesn't take action, the Great Xia Dynasty is really going to lose.
