"Where is the arrogant disdain?"
"It's like a dove trying to take over a magpie's nest, pretending to be so..."
At this point, Xia Chujian was shocked and said, "Could it be that this queen is fake?! But, she doesn't look like her at all!"
In her eyes, this queen was no different from the queens she had seen on TV and the Internet before!
A portrait can be faked, but demeanor and aura are almost impossible to fake.
However, Xia Chujian was not entirely sure, after all, her eyes were not rulers...
Qi Lu gave her a positive answer: "Master, this queen is not fake, she is the real Queen Li Fengen."
"But the hairpin she's wearing is really fake."
"Although the jadeite of this fake hairpin may be of the same grade as your two real hairpins, the value of jadeite as an artwork is not determined by the quality of the raw stone."
"From a raw stone to a work of art, or even a treasure, the difference is more than just a jade carving master."
Xia Chujian nodded, not quite understanding, and said, "Anyway, Qilu, what you mean is that the queen is wearing a wig hairpin, and the real one is with me."
"But, I got the 'Phoenix Roaring Nine Springs' from Bai Cuiwei..."
That day, she took Bai Cuiwei to Li Fu's tomb to pay tribute.
According to local customs, she wanted to bury Li Fu with one of Bai Cuiwei's hairpins, which was a ritual for engaged couples.
As a result, when she opened Bai Cuiwei's small bag, she saw the hairpin at first sight.
At first she thought it was the same "Feng Ming Jiu Tian" that she picked up at the explosion site.
But Qilu told her that it was slightly different, but it was a pair with the "Phoenix Singing in the Nine Heavens".
The one in Bai Cuiwei's bag is called "Phoenix Roaring in the Nine Springs". Such a precious hairpin is definitely not owned by the Bai family. Bai Cuiwei was born in a branch of the Bai family and her family background is very ordinary.
So where did she get it from?
Bai Cuiwei once said that this hairpin was given to her by Li Fu.
Xia Chujian also learned from Li Fu's video recording that the antique hairpin with the inscription "Phoenix Roaring in the Nine Springs" was bought by him from the black market on Shaofu Star.
Xia Chujian said thoughtfully, "Qilu, could it be that Li Fu actually gave this antique hairpin with the Phoenix Roaring to the Nine Springs to the fake Bai Cuiwei, or the fake Princess Tan Tai Jing?"
"But when Tan Tai Jing leaves the palace and uses Bai Cuiwei's identity, she has to put on a full show."
"So, all the things Li Fu gave to 'Bai Cuiwei' should be placed with the real Bai Cuiwei."
"That way, if by some unfortunate chance Li Fu encounters the real 'Bai Cuiwei', she can handle it and prevent Li Fu from discovering the truth."
"Also, Bai Cuiwei said that the fake princess, Tan Tai Jing, promised her that after Li Fu died, all of Li Fu's things would be given to Bai Cuiwei. She doesn't want anything."
Qi Lu said, "Master is right! This is how it should be!"
Xia Chujian thought, whatever it is, it is true. There must not be so many twists and turns in the database of this little thing Qilu about the relationships between men and women.
She was able to figure it out simply because she read too many online novels...
There are so many stories, and there is always some of the author's true feelings in them.
Especially the subtle transitions in the relationship between men and women.
Because humans cannot write anything beyond their cognition.
Especially when it comes to human relationships.
Xia Chujian firmly believed in this.
She then analyzed, "If this is the truth, then there is one thing I don't understand."
"Why is there such an antique hairpin in the black market of Shaofu Star?"
"And judging by the price, the person who sold this hairpin probably doesn't know the value of it at all."
"Just sell it as an ordinary hairpin."
"Otherwise, Li Fu simply can't afford it."
Qi Lu's childish voice confidently analyzed, "Could it be that the appearance of this antique hairpin is somewhat deceptive?"
"People who don't know the value of jade would think that the black spot on the phoenix's eye is a flaw on the jade, so they would think that this thing is worthless."
"It's possible that it was sold cheaply as an ordinary jade hairpin."
Xia Chujian shook her head. "I don't think so... Even someone who doesn't know the jade well wouldn't think it's a flaw when they see this exquisitely lifelike, almost like the finishing touch."
"There must be other reasons that led to this antique hairpin being sold at such a low price."
"Also, I think what we consider a bargain price might be that this antique hairpin should have been worth 1 billion Beichen coins."
"But it only sold for one million Beichen coins."
"But for ordinary people, one million Beichen coins is still a huge sum of money..."
Qi Lu said in a childish voice with a hint of regret, "Master's analysis makes sense. It's a pity that there are no surveillance cameras in the black market on Shaofu Star."
"Otherwise, if we retrieve it, Qilu can help the master analyze it more carefully."
