Chapter 1328： pearl

When Yao Shuibi saw Xiao Ziye, he knelt and bowed.

Although she had taken refuge in Hua Jinmo, the son of King Ling, Xiao Ziye was the prince after all.

There should be no less respectable etiquette on this aspect.

"Get up." Xiao Ziye said lightly.

He came to save her, but not for her.

In fact, Yao Shuibi's life and death, he doesn't care at all.

But Yao Shuibi is still a bit capable after all. If she was given to Hua Jinmo for nothing, he would not agree.

Zhao Yuanjing said: "Prince Xiao, people are here. As long as you leave the money, you can take her away. Also, don't forget to ask your soldiers to leave Canglan Town, and my people will take over Canglan Town. ."

Xiao Ziye smiled, took a sandalwood box from his entourage, put it on the table, and said, "Please open it up and take a look."

Liu Dequan stepped forward and opened the box.

Inside is a stack of silver tickets.

Zhao Yuanjing picked up the silver ticket, with a layer of pearls under the box.

Each one is round and big.

They are neatly arranged together, a bit dazzling.

Zhao Yuanjing glanced at Xiao Ziye.

Xiao Ziye smiled and said: "Twenty silver notes, each one hundred thousand taels, a total of two million taels."

"What do these pearls mean?" Zhao Yuanjing asked.

"Oh, those. Looking at the box in space, just put some pearls in. Just treat it as a small gift for the empress." Xiao Ziye looked at Yun Dai, "I don't know what kind of jewelry the empress likes. Gold, jade, gem, or pearl?"

Yun Dai probed a box of beautiful pearls, reached out to take it, picked up one and looked at it, and smiled: "No matter gold gems or pearls, as long as they are shiny and beautiful, I like them."

Xiao Ziye smiled.

Zhao Yuanjing stretched out his hand, snapped the box closed, and said coldly, "No."

"Why?" Yun Dai held the box, "It's rare to see so many pearls of the same size at once. If it were made into a chain, it would be good."

Zhao Yuanjing's eyes narrowed slightly.

There was already a bit of anger in his eyes.

But he didn't say any more to ask her to put the box down.

In the presence of Prince Bei Qi, he did not want to have verbal discomfort with his queen.

"Take people away," Zhao Yuanjing said coldly, "I am still busy here, so I won't entertain Prince Xiao."

Xiao Ziye didn't care much about the emperor's moodiness.

He said: "In addition, Gu also wants to discuss the artillery deal with the emperor."

"I said, I'll discuss this later." Zhao Yuanjing finished speaking coldly, and left.

It was originally scheduled to discuss together today, but Zhao Yuanjing obviously doesn't want to talk about it now.

Let the Prince Beiqi dry here directly.

Xiao Ziye frowned, looked at Yun Dai, and smiled: "Since the empress loves pearls, I will send more people to you in the future."

Yun Dai hurriedly waved her hand: "No need. Prince Xiao has already given many gifts to this palace."

The day he first came, he gave her a gift, a precious painting.

Then he gave away a national treasure of the Northern Qi Dynasty, Zhaoye Lion Pony.

Today is another box of rare pearls.

Yun Dai felt that this Prince Xiao was kind to herself too much.

No wonder Zhao Yuanjing is jealous.

Prince Xiao smiled and said: "The emperor seems to be in a bad mood. Regarding the artillery deal... the empress also knows that the situation in Beiqi is relatively tense now. I still want to finish the deal earlier and return as soon as possible."
