The Peerless Concubine of the King's Favorite

Chapter 37 each with their own minds

It's best not to know.Anyway, people in Quannan Chu don't know about it, and it's not surprising that she doesn't know about it.If it is said that it is known but cannot be verified, then the consequences will be unimaginable.

Zhao Chenggao's heart trembled when he met that gloomy gaze.Those star eyes are like the most beautiful gemstones in the world, and people can't help but want to find out.Even, at this moment, Zhao Shenggao felt in his heart that the brilliance of the strange treasure was covered by those eyes.

"Master." Xu Shi noticed Zhao Chenggao's unusual silence, and Yin Ji who was standing behind him reminded him in a low voice.

Zhao Chenggao suppressed the strangeness in his heart, smiled faintly, and said, "If Miss Chu knows, you might as well tell me." The tone was casual, as if ordinary people were talking, and no royal affairs were involved.

The different attitudes before and after made Chu Qing secretly frown.Which side does the third prince want to stand on?
Leaving aside the third prince who puzzled her, her clear eyes fell on the rough diamond, and she said as if nostalgic: "Diamond, also known as diamond. It is a natural ore produced in the high temperature environment deep in the soil. The environment is very harsh, and every piece of rough stone can be encountered but not sought. Because of its mystery and rarity, it is usually regarded as a symbol of bravery, power, status and dignity. In the folk, because of its immortality, it is also regarded as A symbol of fidelity that bears witness to the bond between man and woman."

She didn't speak very carefully, not because she deliberately concealed it, but because she couldn't tell a group of ancients the molecular structure, chemical composition, etc. of diamonds.

Even so, though.Her words also amazed the people present. When they cast their eyes on the fist-sized diamond, their eyes were no longer different, and they were a little more awed.

"Although this rough diamond has not been polished, its size and dialysis are very rare, and it is indeed a rare treasure." Chu Qing withdrew his gaze, and finally concluded.

Everyone was shocked.

In addition to being shocked by the meaning of Chu Qing's words, there was also surprise in his heart, when did the daughter of the Chu family become so generous and knowledgeable.Unconsciously, many people who had contacts with the Chu family firm on weekdays cast their eyes on Chu Zhengyang.

As everyone knows, Miss Chu's father is also full of excitement.What excited me was not Chu Qing's response, but the lingering coldness surrounding the seat of the Hu family.

Looking up again, looking at the daughter who was indifferent, Chu Zhengyang looked puzzled, and had more expectations for the mysterious daughter in his heart.

Diamonds... a rare treasure that has never appeared on the land of Southern Chu.Representing power, dignity and eternity, aren't these what the emperor wants?

Chu Qing's words were like a stone falling into a pond, causing ripples.Regardless of the authenticity of her words, but at least, this result is what the royal family wanted.

Hu Furong's eyes were gloomy, and her inexplicable hatred for Chu Qing increased.

At this time, Zhao Shenggao, who recovered from the silence, said lightly, "How does Ms. Chu prove what she said?"

Yes, the words are good words, but how to prove it?

Zhao Shenggao's words made everyone wake up from the shock caused by Chu Qing, and looked at her with playful eyes again, waiting for the next step.If she can't prove what she said, I'm afraid...

Unfortunately, they did not see the look of panic on Chu Qing's face. Instead, they saw her smiling sweetly and saying casually, "One of the characteristics of diamonds is that they are extremely hard, and there is nothing in the world that can be destroyed. To prove it, I have to ask the guards on both sides to chop with the swords around their waists to see if there are any traces."

"Bold and clear, can this kind of treasure be hacked casually?"

"Ignorant women and children, what nonsense!"

Before Zhao Shenggao could speak, the venue was already full of accusations.Standing in the midst of these curses like surround sound, Chu Qing's expression seemed to be listening to a symphony, which was pleasing to the eye.

"A Li." Chu Zhengyang was also startled by Chu Qing's boldness, and couldn't help but speak.

"Father will just wait." Chu Zhengyang's treatment was naturally different from others, so Chu Qing calmed him down.

In this way, Chu Zhengyang had no choice but to remain silent and wait patiently.

Chop it, chop it, if it's broken, your clear head will be gone.Hu Furong, who didn't make a sound, sneered in her heart, and her eyes were a little more expectant, wishing that the guards would quickly follow Chu Qing's words.

A light cough came from the top, and the surroundings were suddenly silent.Those glaring people just now lowered the corners of their eyes and stopped talking.

"Miss Chu, do you know what will happen to you if the treasure is damaged?" Zhao Shenggao said with concern.

Chu Qing smiled lightly: "Chu Qing's life is worth it."

Zhao Chenggao's clear eyes flickered, he suddenly laughed, touched the corner of his mouth with a handkerchief, waved his wide sleeve, and the guard who had been waiting for the order raised his knife and slashed at the diamond.

This came suddenly, and with the sound of the knife falling, many people stood up from their seats and looked at the diamond impatiently.

hiss--

The sound of gasping came and went, and the scene that caught everyone's eyes stunned everyone.

"It's not damaged at all?"

"Could it be true what the daughter of the Chu family said?"

Chu Qing smiled slightly, and that smile was full of wisdom and confidence.The results that had been released made Chu Zhengyang sit down on his seat, and his back was already dripping with cold sweat.Looking at the straight back of the daughter next to her, the emotions that surged in her heart were complicated and difficult to understand.

The two guards who were ordered to execute were relieved to see that the treasure was not damaged. One of them was holding a diamond and the other was holding a steel knife. damaged."

This sentence once again shocked the audience.This treasure can actually damage Ouchi Steel Knife.Who doesn't know that Ouchi Baodao is a treasure that cuts iron like mud?
Hu Furong and Hu Boyi looked at each other, their eyes were a little stinging.

This result made Zhao Chenggao look at Chu Qing with an inexplicable gleam in his eyes, and saw his sleeves move slightly, and the ethereal voice sounded again: "Your Majesty has a decree, if someone can tell what the treasure is, then I will Give a plaque written by the imperial pen, "Wisdom Eyes and Treasures", which can be hung in the business name."

Smart eyes and treasures!Royal pen handwriting!
This time, no matter how the Chu family felt, the Hu family knew what they had lost.And the owners of other firms also looked at the Chu family father and daughter with eyes of envy and jealousy.

Eyes and treasures?This is a good sign.Chu Qing raised her eyebrows and smiled.

"Get out! Get out of here!"

The roar and the sound of broken porcelain were intertwined, so that the maids and servants of the Hu family did not dare to approach the young lady who was in a rage.No one knew why the well-behaved young lady was so irritable when she came back from attending the third prince's banquet.

Could it be that something happened during the banquet that displeased the lady?
