"Sir, the divine dagger 'Heaven's Cry' you ordered has been delivered."
Mu Qing's eyelids twitched, and when the woman in white came in with a plate, smiled politely and respectfully at them and handed them the dagger, Mu Qing was speechless for a long time.
When she looked at it closer, it was pitch black. She couldn't tell how this thing looked like a divine dagger!
After Baili Feiyue took out 20,500 taels of silver notes and gave them to the woman, the woman handed the deed and dagger to them and politely withdrew.
Mu Qing took it from Baili Feiyue and just wanted to pull it out to see if there was anything else.
However, despite Mu Qing's strength, she couldn't pull it out even after trying several times. She pulled so hard that veins popped out, but the thing didn't even crack.
"What the hell is this?" Mu Qing rolled his eyes in disbelief. "I can't even pull it out. Ling Jing, you loser, with the strength in your little hands, did you buy a piece of scrap metal?"
Even if it is scrap iron, with such a small amount, it wouldn't fetch much money!
Baili Feiyue took it from her, pulled it out tentatively, and threw the dagger into Mu Qing's hand, "Then I'll give it to you."
"Why...why don't you just give me the banknotes you used to buy this thing!"
Although Mu Qing couldn't describe this dagger in words...
But this was a gift from Ling Jing. Damn, even if it was just a piece of scrap metal, she was still... very happy to put it in her boots.
After all, if she didn't accept more than 20,000 taels of silver, Ling Jing would probably regret it so much that she would vomit blood.
And in the top VIP seats on the third floor, a man sitting in the shadows looked at the platform below with an obscure look in his eyes, "The person who bought this dagger... has good taste."
His voice was elegant and clear, which was pleasant to hear, but it was just like a slight cold wind that blew up raindrops and hit other people, so cold and thin!
The guard standing next to him said respectfully, "Master, please check it out."
The man waved his hand calmly, "No need."
"Yes." The guard respectfully stepped aside again.
At this time, another person who looked like a guard walked in silently, bowed his head respectfully and said, "Master, I just received a letter from a carrier pigeon saying that Princess Qingli followed us to Dajing."
The man was silent for a while, and it was hard to tell whether he was happy or angry. He ordered, "Find her and look for her." He then said calmly, "If she gets into trouble, throw her back to Xiyue."
"Yes, Master."
At this moment, there was another "clang" sound from the booth below, and the sound of the gong drew everyone's attention again.
"The treasure just now has been auctioned off. Although everyone thinks that 'Heaven's Cry' is fake, there are still people who know the value of it and love it, just like the VIP on the second floor who fell in love with 'Heaven's Cry' at first sight! It doesn't matter if you didn't buy it. We have a lot of treasures in today's auction. For the ones that come later... please make a purchase after you have seen them carefully. Otherwise, if you are not careful, you will miss out on this treasure and regret it for the rest of your life."
As soon as Qianqian's words came out, everyone's attention was shifted to the treasure behind, and the atmosphere in the venue suddenly climbed up again.
Only Baili Feiyue and Mu Qing were on the second floor. Mu Qing felt that Qianqian's words were simply mocking them for buying a piece of broken iron.
But seeing that Baili Feiyue looked like she didn't care, Mu Qing didn't know what to say to her. She thought to herself that if she treated Ling Jing to a few good meals, Ling Jing's heart, which was bleeding from buying scrap metal, would be relieved a little.
And because the first item was sold for an extremely high price of 20,500 taels, it was a good start and the auction started again!
All of a sudden, dazzling exquisite swords, sparkling jewels, exquisite ornaments, rare wild animals and so on, all kinds of things were auctioned off, driving the people below crazy.
There are also rare medicinal materials.
They are indeed rare, but Baili Feiyue lost interest after just one look. They are rare, but it is not cost-effective and not worthwhile to spend that little money to buy those medicinal herbs here, although they are rare, they are not unique.
It's not like she's really stupid and rich. Even if she has quite a bit of money, she's not stupid enough to spend a huge amount of money to buy medicinal herbs that are not worth the price at all.
As for the other treasures, they are indeed treasures, but she just can't muster up any interest in them.
As for the VIP seats above his head, which had previously attracted his attention, no one bid for anything.
She had previously guessed that it might be Changsun Wuji, but now she feels more and more that it is not the case.
Could it be Emperor Jing?
Just as she was thinking this, Mu Qing next to her bumped into her again, "Ling Jing, aren't those herbs good? Others are rushing to buy them, why don't you bid?" Then she suddenly thought of something, "Did you bid for the dagger before but didn't bring enough money?"
Thinking of this, Mu Qing regretted that it took her so long to react. She was about to grab the Ganoderma lucidum on the stand that was about to be auctioned off. Baili Feiyue stopped her, "If you spend money to grab it, you are really stupid and rich."
"Is it fake?"
"No, it's just not worth the price. Besides, I already have these herbs, and it's useless to spend a lot of money to get them now."
Mu Qing was not stupid. After hearing what Baili Feiyue said, she decided not to fight for it. She thought that if she met someone Baili Feiyue liked, she would fight for her.
Just as I was about to say something else, a formal door outside was pushed open without permission. A very sarcastic voice sounded, "Heh, Ling Jing, you are such a bitch after all."
Mu Qing and Baili Feiyue looked out at once. Mu Qing was stunned for a moment and then said rudely, "Ling Yanran?! Did you take the wrong medicine?!"
Baili Feiyue was also a little surprised. Wasn't Ling Yanran still under house arrest? She was actually at this auction?
But no matter how she came...
"If I were you, I would just get out of here."
Ling Yanran smiled slightly. Was this bitch threatening her?
Oh, what is there for her to be afraid of now? She is going to marry Changsun Jue, she has lost brother Xun, and she has completely fallen out of favor with her father. Is she still afraid of Ling Jing's threats?
However, she would not stay here with this bitch for long. She just passed by outside and heard some similar voices inside. When she came in, she saw that it was indeed this bitch.
He looked at Baili Feiyue meaningfully, sneered, and turned away.
"Fuck." Mu Qing cursed.
Although Ling Yanran failed to harm Baili Feiyue last time and was framed and lost her virginity to Changsun Jue, this matter was suppressed by Ling Sheng and almost no one outside knew about it.
Mu Qing didn't know either, but Ling Yanran broke off the engagement with Shangguan Xun of the Prime Minister's Mansion, and the Prince of Qi's Mansion went to the General's Mansion to pay a betrothal gift of the standard for a concubine. After all, those betrothal gifts were brought all the way and could not be hidden from others.
A while ago, the people of Kyoto discussed privately how Fifth Miss Ling would be marrying into Prince Qi's palace in the blink of an eye, but they couldn't come to any conclusion.
Although she didn't know what happened, Mu Qing knew that Ling Yanran and Baili Feiyue had always been at odds. Now Ling Yanran came in and cursed, then sneered and left.
That smile was so sinister that Mu Qing got goosebumps and cursed.
Thinking about it, it's not right. Maybe he has come up with some trick to plot against Ling Jing again! The last palace banquet is still fresh in my mind! Mu Qing stood up, "I'll go take a look."
