The best county magistrate

The next day, at 1:00 p.m.

The door of Zijinzhai was open, welcoming distinguished guest after distinguished guest.

In Room No. 1, Emperor Jianwen and Concubine Shu and Concubine Xian were seated, sipping tea and chatting about family matters.

The eldest prince originally wanted to help his sister with some trivial matters, but Zhao Xue thought he was in the way and sent him here to stand there stupidly.

"My dear, today's occasion is not common. You should take a good look and learn more."

After hearing his father say this, although he disagreed in his heart, he did not dare to show any expression on his face.

I could only nod in response.

I don't know if Sister Gu Li will come. If I could talk to her for a while...

Just as he was thinking this, Gu Li and her second uncle Gu Sanshi appeared in the hall.

Zhao Yanli's eyes lit up, and his mind quickly thought of what excuse he could use to meet her.

As more and more people took their seats, Concubine Xian looked at the people below and said with a smile, "This is really comparable to a grand court meeting."

Concubine Shu also nodded with a smile, "The three ministries of Zhongshu, Shangshu, and Menxia are basically all here."

"I just don't know who lives in the eight rooms A, 2, 3, B, and C!" Emperor Jianwen sighed.

"The royal sister must know. How about I go find her and talk to her?" Zhao Yanli seemed to have found an opportunity to leave and said excitedly.

Concubine Xian glanced at him. This boy was listless just now, how come he suddenly became energetic?

I followed his gaze and looked down the hall.

Many famous ladies from the capital city also came. Could it be that her prince has fallen in love for the first time?

When she looked carefully, her eyes were fixed on a girl wearing a veil.

Concubine Xian couldn't help but nodded. She should look good, and the family that received an invitation from Zijinzhai must be strong.

If the girl is both talented and virtuous and has good character, it is almost time to arrange for her to be a concubine for the prince.

"You kid stay here and watch today. You are not allowed to go anywhere. Those outside are all my beloved ministers. If they see you, they will inevitably gossip about you..."

Following the scolding of Emperor Jianwen, Zhao Yanli had no choice but to play coward. After all, besides being afraid of Yang Xuanchen, the person he feared most was his own father.

When the lights in the other eight private rooms were turned on and the hall was full, it suddenly became dark.

Just when everyone was in a daze, a beam of light appeared on the stage.

"Good evening, distinguished guests!"

"My surname is Yang, my name is Xuanchen, and I am the host and auctioneer for tonight."

"Welcome to Zijinzhai. Without further ado, let's get started!"

When the lights dimmed again, whispers began in the hall.

"I told you it was Master Xiao Yang, and you still don't believe me? Come on, give me ten taels of silver."

A chubby businessman smiled and stretched out his hand to a skinny businessman.

"Here, here you go, just ten taels of silver."

"I heard that the items being auctioned at Zijinzhai today are extraordinary."

The fat businessman nodded. "I heard that these are unprecedented items, including food, drink and daily necessities."

"Buy some to play with?"

The thin businessman sighed, "Haven't you seen so many high-ranking officials and wealthy businessmen? Let's just join in the fun and have a look. Why don't you compete with them for money?"

"The birthday star hanged himself, is his life too long?"

The conversation between the two was only a small part of it, and more topics still revolved around Yang Xuanchen and the auction items.

offstage.

Yang Xuanchen and Zhao Xue looked at each other and felt that the opening had whetted everyone's appetite, so the main show could begin.

As the melodious piano music sounded, the curtain on the stage slowly opened.

Next came two women wearing tight corsets and holding soft swords. They looked heroic with curvy figures, and their exquisite makeup under the bright lights was even more eye-catching.

"Peach Blossom Fairy, you can't escape today!"

"Humph, you want to keep me here with your Earth Realm cultivation? Jiuli, you are dreaming!"

Everyone present was stunned for a moment.

What’s going on? Isn’t this an auction?

How did these two heroines get in?

Emma, ​​that's not right. What the hell is this piano sound?

In the private room No. 3 of the Jiazi Pavilion, Grand Tutor Murong frowned. Isn't this the song that our little girl Qingluan has been practicing these days?

No wonder the girl didn’t follow me into the private room, it turns out she had arrived a long time ago.

Murong Qingluan's piano music changed, and the two women on the stage changed their sword moves continuously.

Everyone present realized then that it wasn't some female hero who broke into the auction, but rather the two of them were acting out a play of young men and women from the martial arts world.

Just when everyone was watching with great interest, the sound of the piano suddenly slowed down, and Jiuli stood still with his sword raised.

The lights on the stage gradually dimmed, and the bright lights followed the Peach Blossom Fairy.

She took off the wine jug from her waist and unscrewed the cap. Instantly, the VIPs in the front row smelled a strong aroma of wine.

Some wine lovers widened their eyes at this moment, "Good! Good wine!"

At this time, the clear voice of Peach Blossom Fairy rang out, "Nectar and Jade Liquor!"

"The capital city is full of silk pipes, half of which are in the rivers and lakes and half in the clouds."

"This wine should only be found in heaven, and it is rare to drink it on earth."

"The nectar is full of love, gentlemen, listen to the dragon's roar."

When she finished speaking, the stage lit up again, and Taohuaxian and Jiuli fought again.

This time the sword moves are more gorgeous and more brilliant, showing the heroism and tenderness of the women of the martial arts world.

The Peach Blossom Fairy, with wine in her hand, was drinking while dancing with her sword, which made the distinguished guests below intoxicated.

"If I could marry a heroine like this, I would have no regrets in this life!" Someone shouted.

Then there was another scream from his direction. It seemed that the wife of the man just now yelled, "You already have five concubines. Can you handle marrying another one? Ah?"

There was a burst of laughter in Zijinzhai. As the laughter faded, the performance on the stage came to an end.

When the piano music stopped, the heroine left the stage and Yang Xuanchen came on stage.

"The first item of this auction is the nectar!"

"This wine is different from the Mengxian wine that everyone has drunk. It is stronger and has a purer taste. It also has a sauce aroma. The taste is soft and dense, and the aftertaste is long."

"Come on, serve a cup to the distinguished guests, everyone can try it first!"

He stood on the stage with a smile as warm as spring breeze, waiting for everyone to taste the fine wine.

At this time, the people sitting in the front row finished their glasses first, and their expressions looked very shocked.

"This wine is only found in heaven, and it is rare to drink it on earth!"

"Good! Great, it's really good wine!"

"May I ask Master Xiao Yang if this wine comes from Shenxianju?"

Yang Xuanchen did not answer questions like these, but just said with a smile: "I am only responsible for this auction. If you have any questions, we can talk in detail later, haha."

Then he gave a look that said "you understand" to him, and the person who asked the question instantly understood and smiled slyly.

After everyone finished drinking, Yang Xuanchen cleared his throat and said, "Then the auction begins!"

As they spoke, two beautiful women wearing strange gowns that were slit all the way to the top of their thighs walked onto the stage, carrying two exquisite glass bottles.

"The price of the wine is one jin per bottle. The starting price is one hundred taels of silver. There are only two hundred jin available tonight."

As soon as he finished speaking, someone in the audience shouted, "I'll give you one hundred taels of silver!"

Yang Xuanchen glanced at him and said with a smile: "Don't worry, Master Chen, I haven't finished yet!"

"The brewing process of Qiongjiang Yuye Liquor is complicated. It takes three years to brew about 300 kilograms. We were able to brew 200 kilograms this time, which is the best effort made by Zijinzhai."

"After this batch of wine is sold, there will be no more fine wine in the next three years!"

"so……"

Yang Xuanchen deliberately dragged out the syllables, and then said: "So its preciousness is beyond doubt, right?"

When the people in the audience heard him say this, many of them couldn't help but gasp.

I originally thought that with a volume of 200 kilograms, basically everyone present could bid for one or two kilograms, but after he said that, the competition would become extremely fierce.

once three years!

Only 200 kilograms are available!

Whoever can bid for this wine will be so proud!

When friends and relatives get together and visit their superiors to give them gifts, I think it's a matter of face!

This isn't just wine, this is supreme honor!

"One thousand taels! I'll give you one thousand taels!" The one who shouted was the Minister of the Central Secretariat Chi Yanyu.

boom!

This one thousand taels undoubtedly threw a huge rock onto the surface of the lake called Zijinzhai, causing huge waves!

"It can be bought for one thousand taels?"

"I'll give you two thousand taels!"

Shangshu Ling Yu Shuping shouted.
