Chapter 385: Tomb Pearls
Fang Jizhong quickly approached the emperor.
"Mr. Chen Qing's ancestral home is Baiyan Village, but it is said that this village was not called this first. It was called Guojiazhuang. It seemed that people with the surname Guo died overnight, so someone proposed to change their name."
"Why is it called Baiyan Village?"
Fang Jizhong shook his head, "I don't know this. I have asked someone to inquire about it. Now the Chen family is taking care of Baiyan Village and the surrounding area. Now, it's almost thirty years."
The emperor nodded and looked up and down at Fang Jizhong.
"Parent Fang, you have seen my children grow up. Who do you think can be a great task?"
Fang Jizhong knelt down with a wry smile, spread his hands and said:
"Your Majesty is in a dilemma, and I can't understand it. However, these princes are all your flesh and blood. I am a superficial ordinary child. I think Your Majesty can live, and these princes can be filial. What else can I have to worry about in this way?"
"At you get up, I just asked, you have followed me since I was a child, and I know this friendship. But the prince seemed to be too smooth, and he thought I didn't know, and it was really hateful to have these conspiracies under his nose.
The queen is even more so. Although she doesn't care about anything, eats vegetarian food and chants Buddha all day long, and asks Concubine Xian and others to manage the harem, there is actually no sign of her? I just saw that she was in a state of peace because she was not satisfied with Taishi Cao's death, so she was so tolerant. She really thought that she was dead?”
Fang Jizhong was so arrogant that he didn't dare to breathe, but just lowered his head and didn't say anything.
The emperor stood up, walked a few steps back and forth, and looked at Fang Jizhong's order:
"Send someone to check what's going on in Baiyan Village. In addition, the position of Concubine Xian is really worthy of further entry. I inform the Ministry of Internal Affairs to prepare to enthrone Concubine Xian as the Imperial Concubine, the Sixth Princess as Princess Yongle, and the Sixth Princess is promulgated to the Sixth Palace, and choose the day to enthrone the enthronement ceremony."
Fang Jizhong knelt down and said yes, and quickly turned around and left the East Warehouse. When the cold wind in early spring was blowing outside, he felt the chill on his back. Several eunuchs quickly came up to wait for the call.
"Master Gan, what do you want to tell the little one to do?"
Fang Jizhong nodded, "You four are here to guard Your Majesty. If you don't have any important matters, don't affect Your Majesty's comments. You four are going to the Interior Office with our family."
The next day, as soon as Zhou Heng got up, Boss Xue pushed the door and came in.
He would not be as polite as Qu Ziping. He pushed the door and put down the hot water, held a stack of clothes in front of Zhou Heng.
Zhou Heng looked up and down, with a look of confusion on his face.
"If you don't have New Year or Festival, what should you do in such a brocade dress?"
Boss Xue said reluctantly: "Qu Ziping asked me to hurry up and call you up, saying that someone from the Xianwang Mansion was here. The boy who came to give gifts last time, his name was Wei."
Zhou Heng was stunned and thought about it for a moment.
"Chief Wei Siwen?"
Boss Xue clapped his hands, "That's right, that's the name. Qu Ziping handed me these things and asked me to ask if you see you?"
Zhou Heng nodded, "You go and invite someone in, it's okay to meet him."
Boss Xue hurried out, Zhou Heng changed into his clothes, finished washing up, and quickly walked towards the main hall in the front yard.
Qu Ziping was having tea when he saw Zhou Heng, and he quickly greeted him.
Wei Siwen, who was sitting, also quickly stood up and bowed to Zhou Heng with a smile.
"Wei Siwen has met the judge of the Zhou Yuan."
Zhou Heng returned the gift and the two sat down.
"Last time during the Chinese New Year, Wei Changshi happened to be away from here. I feel really embarrassed."
"You are polite to the judgment of the Zhou Yuan. Wei has always admired the medical skills of the judgment of the Zhou Yuan. I saw him today. I didn't expect that the judgment of the Zhou Yuan was so young, which made Wei ashamed."
Zhou Heng picked up the teacup and took a sip, then looked at Wei Siwen.
"I wonder if the Chief Wei is here today, but what instructions does the Virtuous King have?"
Wei Siwen waved his hand quickly, "The wise king got an object and found it particularly interesting. He asked Wei to come over and give it to the judge of the Zhou Yuan."
As he said that, he clapped his hands, and then two people came into the yard, carrying a huge box and put it in the hall.
Wei Siwen stood up and opened the box, and there were brocade boxes inside.
Zhou Heng narrowed his eyes slightly, and did not move but looked at Wei Siwen.
"I don't know this is"
Wei Siwen quickly picked up a brocade box and slowly opened it. There were six pearls neatly placed inside. The beige pearls were all the size of quail eggs, round and without any color, with a faint light, and it looked like the best pearls.
"It is said that when the ancestor of the wise king was building the embankment, he accidentally dug an ancient tomb. I don't know if it was the tomb of the emperor. He also found this treasure pit next to the tomb and sent the things back to the capital. His Majesty left the gold utensils and other ones to Lord Chen Qing.
Lord Chen Qing lived in Shaanxi for a long time and did not send it back. He asked someone to send the things to the Xianwang. The Xianwang felt that this thing was too yin, but Zhou Yuan was judged to be good at making medicine, so he asked Wei to send it. If it could be used, it would benefit the people."
Zhou Heng closed the lid of the brocade box and looked at Wei Siwen and smiled.
He really should applaud him when giving gifts. Obviously, what benefits did the wise king get after Zhang Fuling entered the palace yesterday? This is considered to be a way to express his favor. He did not hit people with a smile on his face, and there was no reason to give something back.
"Then I'm thankful for the kindness of King Xian's heart. Wei Changshi asked him to sit down. I wonder if the King Xian and Concubine Xian will be happy in the past few days?"
Wei Siwen hurriedly clasped his fists and said, "Yesterday, His Majesty had announced the Six Palaces that the imperial concubines will be held soon for Empress Xian, and the Sixth Princess was also promoted to Princess Yongle. The Xianwang was really happy and asked Wei to report a letter to the Zhou Yuan. At that time, the Xianwang Mansion will hold a banquet. Please be sure to attend the Zhou Yuan. Wei will go to the Prince's Mansion later to report the matter."
Zhou Heng glanced at the huge box. The King of Wise had really put a lot of effort into allowing him to accept it.
It seems that the emperor's canonization was for the crown prince. Although it was the benefit of Concubine Xian and the Sixth Princess, the biggest beneficiary was the wise king.
Besides, the Emperor Changsun had a chance to appear in Beishan before, and the Prince's Mansion has been in trouble recently.
A Chen Wenchi was lost. Although Wen Shu was not implicated, he was forced to get sick. The emperor and Changsun were disliked by the empress dowager. There was another news today, and the wise king must be happy.
Zhou Heng smiled, "It's not peaceful to come in from Beijing. Zhou also wants to visit Miss Zhang's condition in Huichuntang, so he has to trouble Shi Changshi Wei to convey his gratitude to Zhou."
Wei Siwen quickly bowed and saluted, stood up and walked to Zhou Heng with a respectful look on his face, as if Zhou Heng was standing in front of him, an official like a Shangshu.
"The Zhou Court has a heavy judgment. Wei will say goodbye first and do not disturb the Zhou Court's hard work. We will have a date later!"
As Wei Siwen was about to leave, Zhou Heng quickly got up and called Qu Ziping to see him off.
Boss Xue had entered the hall at some point, stood behind Zhou Heng, looked at the box on the ground, and frowned slightly.
"These things were sent by the wise king?"
Zhou Heng nodded, sat down and picked up the tea and took a few sips. Boss Xue lifted the box and looked at it, looking disgusted.
"The man said, this was dug from the ancient tomb. Why don't you dislike it? How unlucky it is? I think it's better not to ask for it!"
As Boss Xue was about to move the box, Zhou Heng was startled and quickly spoke out to stop him.
"Are you stupid? The pearls from the ancient tombs are boxed in such a box, and the size is so even. Let's look at the luster. If you get it from the ancient tombs, it will at least not be so luster."
When Boss Xue heard this, he quickly opened the box. The pearls were neatly placed inside. Sure enough, the luster was soft and the surface was smooth. He picked it up and sniffed it, and it seemed to have a faint smell of salty and fishy smell.
"It smells a bit salty and fishy, what's going on?"
Zhou Heng walked over, glanced at him, picked up the box and handed it to Boss Xue.
Immediately, I found that there was a brocade box underneath it. Zhou Heng paused his finger. According to his past experience, this wise king had definitely studied the gift giving.
The brocade box below seemed to be bigger than the one above. Zhou Heng bent down and wanted to move it out, but when he hugged the brocade box, he didn't move. Boss Xue looked at it at this moment.
