Chapter 1806: Tang Bao's gift to Shi Liu
On the altar, Pomegranate slowly stood up.
With their palms facing the sky, they danced a worship dance to the sound of mysterious drums.
Tang Bao looked at Shi Liu.
The pomegranate seems to be integrated with the heaven and earth, and its figure is infinitely tall and mysterious.
Tang Bao's mood became excited.
This is her sister Pomegranate!
Tang Bao suddenly felt that this was what her sister Shi Liu deserved!
It turns out that this is Sister Pomegranate's destiny and mission.
Tang Bao seemed to be thinking about something.
After the dance ended, a glimmer of relief flashed in the high priest's eyes.
The people under the altar looked at Pomegranate with fanatical admiration on their faces.
The high priest frowned, bent down, and was the first to salute the pomegranate.
"Greetings to the high priest!" The high priest's voice seemed to resound through heaven and earth.
As the high priest finished speaking, thunderous cheers rang out.
"Meet the High Priest!"
"Meet the High Priest..."
People kowtowed and worshiped.
Pomegranate stood steadily on the altar, with countless subjects kneeling at his feet.
However, Shi Liu's gaze was directed towards Tang Bao.
There is gratitude, joy, excitement, and determination...
Tang Bao made a heart shape with her hands to Shi Liu and smiled brightly.
A smile slowly appeared on Shi Liu's face, and she made a heart shape to Tang Bao.
For a moment, the sacred and noble color that enveloped the pomegranate seemed to dissipate with the pomegranate's playful movement.
The people still bowing at the altar: "..."
"Su Tang, the princess of Dayan, congratulates the high priest for receiving the grace of heaven and bringing blessings to all people!" Tang Bao said loudly, her voice clear and pleasant.
After saying that, he waved to the back.
Led by Da Pan and Er Pan, large boxes were carried over one after another.
Each large box was tied with red silk and covered with red paper with large characters indicating the contents.
Everyone present stared at the red paper on the box with wide eyes.
Gradually, everyone's hearts began to beat wildly and could no longer be suppressed.
Five thousand taels of gold... five thousand taels... five thousand taels...
How many five thousand taels are there?
Ten thousand taels of silver... ten thousand taels... ten thousand taels...
Sulamo... too many to count...
Everyone present was speechless.
Too many...just too many!
The boxes in the front contained gold and silver, while the boxes in the back contained jewelry, calligraphy and paintings, antiques, jade, medicinal herbs, and silk...
The court officials and wealthy businessmen looked at the box behind them, their eyes widened and their heads started buzzing.
That Doucai white tiger vase with cloud pattern is his family heirloom...
That large screen depicting mountains, rivers, and flowers was his mother's favorite ornament when she was alive...
That gold and emerald crown was passed down from his great-grandfather...
…
The court officials and wealthy businessmen stared with wide eyes, shouting in their hearts, wishing they could snatch the things in the box.
But they didn't dare.
Woohoo...they are such losers...
They exchanged these things for silver to buy the antidote for Xiaoyao Powder...
Woohoo... They are so sorry to their ancestors...
Woohoo... Little Princess of Dayan, what are you doing?
Letting them see but not touch, isn't this tearing out their hearts?
However, soon, a strange thought arose in these people's minds.
Could these be gifts for the high priest?
Otherwise, why is there a red silk tied on it?
No, impossible!
Who would be willing to give away such a large fortune?
Are you stupid?
Logically speaking, if this situation happened at any other time, everyone would know that it must be a gift.
But, is it now? Is it?
Who gives so many gifts?
Throughout history, who has ever seen such a generous gift?
Who has seen it? Who has seen it?
If Queen Mingli of Western Qin knew what these people were thinking, she would definitely tell them loudly that they were just surprised by what they had never seen before!
She has seen it!
Her sister Fuya gave it to her just like that!
"Aunt, the gifts have been delivered." Da Pan said to Tang Bao in a loud voice.
Tang Bao nodded.
Then, he looked at Shi Liu and said in a light voice, "Sister Shi Liu, these are my gifts to congratulate you on inheriting the position of high priest. You must accept them, Sister Shi Liu."
After saying that, he signaled Da Pan and Er Pan to read the gift list.
Da Pan and Er Pan stopped and glanced at everyone present with pride. Seeing that everyone looked shocked, they felt that the atmosphere was almost tense. Then they opened the red booklet in their hands at the same time and started reading aloud.
"Six hundred and twenty-seven thousand eight hundred taels of gold!"
"Seven million seven hundred and thirty thousand taels of silver!"
"Twenty-four night-shining pearls!"
"Forty-two boxes of South Sea pearls!"
"ruby……"
For a moment, the entire front of the altar was filled with the clear voices of Da Pan and Er Pan.
These sounds were like heavy hammers, hitting everyone's heart.
Sulamo is above!
Is what they heard true?
So many treasures are actually gifts for the high priest?
The little princess of Dayan is so generous!
Their high priest has become rich!
No! It was their southern Xinjiang wealth that was saved!
This thought came to everyone's mind.
They dared not speak, fearing that once they did, these would become false and imagined.
Even the common people had heard the news that the wealth in the hands of the court officials and wealthy businessmen in southern Xinjiang had all fallen into the hands of the young princess of Dayan.
Although these are none of their business, they do not want their country's wealth to become the property of other countries.
Even ordinary people have a sense of family and country.
They are also worried that the national strength of southern Xinjiang will be weakened, and that their country will be bullied by other countries if it becomes weak.
Now, the little princess just waved her hand and gave all these riches to the high priest!
Giving it to the high priest means it’s just going back to their southern border!
Because of the high priest, their wealth in southern Xinjiang was preserved!
At this time, even the king of Southern Xinjiang was shocked by Tang Bao's generosity.
If he had known that the young princess of Dayan would give all these treasures to the high priest, why would he have sent someone to use the beauty trap? He ended up being a laughing stock in vain.
The King of Southern Xinjiang rubbed his chest to prevent his heart from accidentally jumping out.
His eyes involuntarily looked towards the former high priest.
The former high priest had already walked down from the altar, his jade-like figure emanating a peaceful aura, as if he was not surprised at all by all this.
The King of Southern Xinjiang: "..."
Suddenly, he felt that what they did in the hall that day was just like a group of clowns in the eyes of the former high priest.
The King of Southern Xinjiang gave a bitter smile.
He is only fit to be a background board.
Southern Xinjiang is always under the control of the High Priest.
The King of Southern Xinjiang looked at Tang Bao again.
The little girl was wearing an exquisite lavender dress and a princess's crown on her head. She stood there like the scorching sun in the sky, making people dare not look directly at her.
The King of Southern Xinjiang sighed secretly. It was no wonder that his son was not worthy of others. With such a character and such a temperament, his son was not worthy of others.
At this moment, the King of Southern Xinjiang completely gave up the idea of letting his son continue to show his presence in front of Tang Bao.
