Chapter 526 Her Things

In the palace, the auction continues.

As more lots were put on the market, rounds of intense competition ensued.

Since Si Linglong had arranged the order in ascending order based on the value of the donated items at the beginning, there were two items that were auctioned off later that had people bidding silently.

But obviously, due to the enthusiasm of bidding, the prices are basically several times higher than the price of the items themselves.

The next two silent bids were both defeated by the called bid.

"The bid price is much higher. The price on the silent bid card is still conservative. If we get an item we like, we'll probably have to bid for it."

At the right seat, Mrs. Shi said this to her husband in a low voice.

In addition to Mrs. Shi, many people present also realized that the numbers they wrote down earlier were conservative. After all, when they wrote down the silent bid, they were moved by the singing and consciously relaxed their hands.

But afterwards, the bidding atmosphere was so intense that everyone relaxed unconsciously.

This also resulted in the bid price being far higher than people expected.

This was exactly the effect Si Linglong wanted. She silently calculated the prices of the first few items in her mind and felt that her shouting today was well-deserved.

[It feels so good to get some free stuff. 】

[Today's small goal - bald them! ]

After taking a sip of the throat-soothing sweet tea handed to her by the assistant beside her, Si Linglong moved on to the next item. When she saw the tray brought over by the palace maid, she raised her eyebrows slightly.

"The next lot is donated by this palace, the Nine-flower Moon Rat White Sable Fur Coat."

As Si Linglong spoke, she gently stroked the fur on the collar of the mink coat with her silk gloves. "This mink coat was made by the most skilled embroiderer in the palace. The nine flowers represent the soul in full bloom. This white mink was made by the emperor himself. The fur is smooth to the touch, warm and windproof. More importantly, it is unique."

As Si Linglong spoke, she seemed to remember something and took out a pair of gloves made of mink from her mink fur coat.

"These gloves are made of rabbit fur. They come as a set with the mink coat. They are a small gift. They keep you warm and are not easy to take off."

As Si Linglong spoke, she put one of the gloves on her hand.

The eyes of the ladies on both sides suddenly brightened up again.

This is another one they have never seen before!

Unlike the silk gloves that Lang Zhaoyi originally wore with all five fingers clearly separated, these rabbit fur gloves only separated the thumb and gathered the remaining four fingers into one piece. Although the method was obviously simple, the rabbit fur gloves were already furry and cute. When Lang Zhaoyi moved, he looked as adorable as an animal waving.

The young ladies were all very moved.

Although the older ladies were much calmer, when I thought of my daughters at home, I felt that they must like it too.

So, after Si Linglong announced the starting price and the amount of each bid, several ladies immediately raised their signs to compete for it. Soon, the price reached three thousand taels.

Not to mention the value of the sable fur itself, just the fact that the sable was furred by the emperor himself meant they had no choice but to pay for it.

What’s more, it comes with a pair of free gloves!

Soon, a lady felt that raising the cards again and again was realistic, so she just opened her mouth and called out a price.

"Three thousand eight hundred taels!"

The moment she shouted, everyone's eyes turned to look at her. The lady was a little embarrassed at first, but soon she became righteous.

There's no rule against shouting directly, right?

Si Linglong originally considered that these ladies and officials were relatively reserved, so she did not specifically mention the rules of bidding on one's own initiative. However, she did not expect that someone would bid on their own initiative. She immediately smiled and pointed at that lady.

"Madam No. 13 bids 3,800 taels! Is there anyone who can offer a higher price than 3,800 taels?!"

Perhaps Si Linglong's tacit attitude inspired the other ladies present, and someone immediately called out the price, "Four thousand taels!"

"Four thousand three hundred taels!"

"Four thousand five hundred taels!"

"Five thousand taels!"

Si Linglong really liked this behavior of consciously bidding high, and she became excited. "Five thousand taels! Madam No. 13 has already bid five thousand taels!! Does anyone else want to raise the price? If no one raises the price, then five thousand taels for the first time, five thousand taels for the second time, five thousand taels for the third time..."

Before he could finish his words three times, a familiar male voice suddenly came from the seat.

"Ten thousand taels."

A deep and pleasant male voice, with the majesty of a superior, the moment the words came out, all the people who were originally bidding in the hall fell silent, and turned their heads to look at the last person who shouted.

On the main seat, Helian Yue rested one hand on the handle and casually played with a jade ring with the other hand. His whole posture revealed a leisurely laziness. When his phoenix eyes swept across, they revealed a majesty that made people dare not look directly at him. Only when Si Linglong met his eyes could she clearly see some interest in his eyes.

Si Linglong was speechless.

[Why are you here to join in the fun?! ]

Helian Yue raised his eyebrows, looking righteous and confident.

There is no rule that prohibits emperors from bidding at charity auctions.

He also has money in his private vault.

What's more.

How could he let others take away the things she had used?
