Chapter 143 Bandits
Yes, murder and robbery.
Do they have goods?
Zhu Huaizhen first reflected on himself.
Her hair was haphazardly combed, unremarkable. Her hairpin was a half-worn silver hairpin, worth only a few taels of silver. Her riding coat with arrow sleeves was made of fine gauze, a soft texture and inexpensive.
So, the problem is not with her.
Looking at Tu Mi and Lou Li, they are similar to her and do not show off their wealth.
Okay, let’s take a look at Chen Mingan and Zhao Lianer.
Zhu Huaizhen didn't take the initiative to look at it, she just wanted to think about it.
Chen Ming'an was fine. The most expensive item on his body was a white jade hairpin carved with magpie and plum patterns, which was worth about one hundred taels of silver. There was no need for him to be a bandit and kill people for the goods.
As for Zhao Lian'er, she favored pearl hairpins. It was rumored that the Nine Phoenix-Encircled Pearl Hairpin, adorned with red gold and pearls, was crafted at great expense by a skilled craftsman for her coming-of-age ceremony, commissioned by the Nan Chu empress, who, despite his many unjust deeds, would ultimately bring his own downfall. It was also said that the Eight Treasures Jade Chrysanthemum Hairpin, carved from icy jade with a chrysanthemum pattern, was inlaid with the Eight Treasures of Buddhism: the vase, the canopy, the twin fish, the lotus, the right-hand conch, the auspicious knot, the victory banner, and the Dharma wheel. It was said to be a gift from Concubine Bai Chen, a gift of great care. It was also said that the honey-colored crystal hairpin, exquisitely crafted, elegant, and unique, was designed by Chen Ming'an himself and was also worn at her coming-of-age ceremony.
Wow, three pearl hairpins, quite flashy.
However, now there are thirty bandits who are determined to win.
Zhu Huaizhen glanced at Bai Chenfei casually.
Damn, the culprit is Bai Chenfei.
Not long after leaving Southern Yan, Concubine Bai Chen couldn't wait to resume her favorite, ornate hairpins. Examples included a butterfly-in-love flower, pomegranate, and ruyi tortoise-shell silk-wrapped gold hairpin, a red gold filigree hairpin with rubies, a bat-patterned gold hairpin with glazed beads and trembling branches, a nine-turn red gold hairpin with two phoenixes inlaid with jade and seven treasures, a gold filigree hairpin with two phoenixes inlaid with rubies and kingfisher feathers, a gold-threaded hairpin with five treasures and a peacock-shaped hairpin inlaid with oriental pearls, a rose quartz twin crabapple with wings and jade phoenix hairpin, a burnt blue peony crystal hairpin, a four-butterfly gold hairpin inlaid with red, blue, and green sapphire beads, and an emerald red gold hairpin with phoenix beads. Surely these wouldn't attract the attention of bandits?
Moreover, Concubine Bai Chen was holding a valuable item tightly, which revealed a copper gilt enamel jewelry box inlaid with pearls and turquoise, which was also very expensive.
Hey, Zhu Huaizhen could imagine that the jewelry box was filled with the earrings that Bai Chenfei often used. Lady Nanchu loved wearing earrings the most, and she would like to wear three earrings in one ear.
For example, white jade twisted wire ring with agate earrings, silver-plated gold-plated kingfisher inlaid with red and yellow rice beads earrings with peace and happiness for all years, kingfisher inlaid with green jade earrings, gold filigree butterfly peach blossom pattern inlaid with gems earrings, gold filigree inlaid with gems lotus pond small scene pattern tower-shaped gourd ring, spherical hollow gold earrings with gems, gold inlaid crystal purple eggplant earrings, gold filigree inlaid jade butterfly chasing plum blossom earrings, gold inlaid jade gourd-shaped earrings, pure gold auspicious and abundant jade pendant earrings, etc. The bandits are going to rob a lot of money this time.
"This is Princess Ronghua of Nanwu. She is carrying the treasure of the Great Zhou. If you want to rob her of her money and her body, just kidnap her!" In desperation, Concubine Bai Chen shouted while hiding behind Zhu Huaishu.
After hearing this, Zhu Huaishu shook his head helplessly at Zhu Huaizhen.
Unfortunately, Zhu Huaizhen will not sympathize with Bai Chenfei.
She also raised her voice and shouted, "Everyone, this is the successor to the Southern Wu, who later became the Consort of the Southern Yan. She still has such charm. Her bundle contains hairpins, such as the gold hairpin inlaid with tourmaline gemstones, pearls, and jade flowers and leaves, the silver-plated gilded kingfisher earrings with pearls and goldfish, the silver-plated gilded square jade hairpin, the white jade hairpin with lotus and mandarin duck patterns, the silver-gilt hollowed-out double-piece hairpin with intertwined floral patterns, the hollowed-out flower-head curling grass and floral pattern cylindrical large gold hairpin, the three-layer hollowed-out butterfly-shaped gold hairpin, the gold filigree inlaid glass sea house hairpin, the silver-plated gilt filigree dragon-shaped hairpin with pearls, the gold filigree inlaid gemstone kiwi-presenting peach hairpin, and so on. Adding them together is priceless!"
Hehe, after hearing this, the bandits became more excited and rushed towards Bai Chenfei together.
