Chapter 873 Heart-piercing Theory

Chapter 873 Heart-piercing Theory

Shen Xia played with the child in the yard for a while.

Then he returned to his own yard.

Song Jiang had already changed his clothes and was waiting in the main hall in the front yard.

Looking at Shen Xia coming over.

"Xia Xia is ready."

Shen Xia nodded: "Okay."

Song Jiang knew that his behavior was wrong.

So nothing was said.

Just followed Shen Xia out.

Because it was not yet dinner time when we entered the palace.

Song Jiang would definitely not enter the harem.

So Song Jiang and Xiao Bei went to the former dynasty together.

Shen Xia divided the things into two parts.

One copy was sent by Song Jiang to the previous dynasty, to the emperor.

But he took the things to the Queen's Yiku Palace.

The time when Shen Xia arrived.

The Queen already has several wives here.

Madam Xu, Madam Su, and Old Madam Fu were all here, as well as some young ladies from aristocratic families.

But Shen Xia was very calm.

Following him is Ruyi.

Shen Xia took a look and saw that Concubine Rong was not there.

This means the disease has not yet been cured!

Mrs. Qin is not here either.

However, Concubine Yi and Princess Xiyue are both here.

In fact, palace dinners are usually attended by concubines and above, while women in the harem below the rank of concubine will not attend.

Even at ordinary palace banquets, only those with higher ranks are eligible to attend.

Those of lower rank could only show their faces when they paid their respects to the Queen.

Otherwise, you can't see outsiders.

I will be trapped in this cannibalistic palace for the rest of my life.

The queen saw Shen Xia coming.

He smiled and said, "Anping is here, come and sit down."

The queen couldn't wait for Shen Xia to perform the ceremony.

The queen had someone arrange a seat for him very close to the front.

Right next to Princess Xiyue.

Even Miss Fu was in the lower position.

In fact, this position is similar, as she already has the status of a princess.

But some people are still unhappy.

For example, Concubine Yi.

However, Shen Xia didn't pay attention to her expression.

The queen smiled and asked softly, "Why didn't you come to the palace today?"

Shen Xia hurriedly bowed and replied respectfully: "Reporting to the Queen, my mother has always liked quietness, so she rarely goes out on weekdays."

The queen nodded slightly and continued, "That makes sense. My aunt has been alone these years and has rarely gone out except to burn incense and pray for blessings."

"But now that you're back, Anping, you can persuade your aunt to go out and walk around more often, so that she won't be too lonely staying in the house all day."

The queen really respected the eldest princess.

Back then, if it weren't for the strong support of Her Royal Highness the Princess, the Emperor might not have been able to sit firmly on the supreme throne.

While the queen was talking to Shen Xia, she suddenly saw a palace maid behind Shen Xia carrying something, so she asked curiously, "What is that?"

Seeing this, Shen Xia smiled slightly and replied slowly: "My lady, this is the Longevity Bell."

After saying this, she waved her hand and signaled the palace servants to move the Changsheng Bell a little closer.

After the Changsheng Bell was placed in the hall, Shen Xia turned to look at Ruyi. Ruyi understood what he meant and stepped forward to gently uncover the brocade covering the Changsheng Bell.

Naturally, the Queen Mother had heard of this Longevity Bell.

After all, that watch shop had been open in the capital for many days and its reputation was well-known even in the imperial palace.

Everyone is very interested in new things, so there are more opportunities to talk about them.

Most young ladies from wealthy families are competitive and want to be the first to own new and unique things.

Of course, many of the ladies and girls present here also have bought some at home.

It's just that they don't know who owns this store.

"Is this the clock they were talking about?" The Queen looked at the clock in front of her curiously, which was more accurate than an hourglass or a water drop, and exclaimed, "This is really a rare item!"

Shen Xia smiled and nodded, explaining, "Yes, Queen. This clock is not only more accurate than an hourglass or a water drop, but it is also very convenient to use. You only need to adjust it once a month."

Why do we need to adjust it once a month?

Because the calendar at that time was calculated based on the lunar calendar, there was no distinction between the lunar calendar and the solar calendar.

There is a date on it, and the date is always the 31st, while the lunar calendar only has the 29th and 30th.

So you have to adjust it manually on the first day of the month.

The Queen carefully observed the clock, which was as tall as a person. The more she looked at it, the more magical it seemed to her. She couldn't help but ask, "Did you buy this wonderful thing?"

Shen Xia quickly shook his head and replied, "No, this clock is a new gadget that my third brother learned when he was doing business in the West. He thought it was quite practical, so he brought some back and studied it himself. Then he found out something and opened a store called "Time and Years" in the city."

When everyone heard this, they immediately understood.

It turns out that the shop called "Time and Space" in the capital is actually the property of Princess Anping!

As soon as the news came out, many people present couldn't help but feel a variety of emotions, some were envious, some were jealous.

After all, this clock is very expensive!

Although Beauty Manufacturing was not owned by Princess Anping alone, the business of that shop was also making a lot of money and making huge profits.

In addition to this clock, the legendary flourishing flowers are also the property of Princess Anping.

As a result, it is really difficult for people to estimate how much wealth this Princess Anping possesses.

Rumor has it that the money in the national treasury is not as much as Princess Anping's financial resources.

Of course, these things were spread by everyone, but Shen Xia herself didn't know.

You know, the orders for "Years and Time" have been scheduled for the coming year, and many people have placed orders, but have not received the goods.

Everyone is a little impatient.

Moreover, a clock this big would cost more than two thousand taels.

Even such a small pocket watch costs more than one hundred taels.

But the only advantage is that it can be maintained if it breaks down.

The maintenance period is three years.

But this thing is indeed much more convenient.

So there are too many people buying it.

The queen had only heard of it, but didn't know how to recognize it.

Just looking at the unfamiliar numbers above.

Shen Xia then spoke patiently.

Of course, I didn’t know half of the people present.

So I listened very carefully.

At this time, Concubine Yi spoke calmly: "This Princess Anping is really a deity! Everything she does is unique in the world. I think her industry must be rich enough to rival a country!"

Concubine Yi looked at her tight pockets.

Of course, when I knew that Shengshi Fanhua was Princess Anping, I was jealous to death.

After all, that colorful glazed gauze is worth a fortune.

Later, another movie called "Beauty Maker" was made.

She had heard of this clock, but she couldn't leave the palace, so her mother bought one for her.

It's just a small one.

She really likes it because it is convenient.

I didn't expect that all these things belonged to her.

It pissed her off so much.

What Concubine Yi said was really heartbreaking.
