Chapter 577: Principal bet
She sighed again, if she hadn't been for Princess Li, she would have been mingling with the emperor and living a happy life.
How did she know that the reason Hongyuan Emperor was willing to reward her was to save face in front of the ministers.
Moreover, Emperor Hongyuan knew that he was only temporarily storing the gold in Prince Li's Mansion, and he would kill Chu Xuanchen and take it back sooner or later.
That's why it is so generous.
"The concubine, thank you, the emperor Longen." After Yun Ruoyue finished the salute, she was ready to return to her seat.
At this time, Feng Wu on the opposite side refused to accept it.
She stood up coldly, her eyes staring at Yun Ruoyue, "Princess Li, this princess also has a treasure here, this princess has a jade box with a lock made of thousand-year-old cold iron on it, this jade Inside the box is a top-quality night pearl from the East China Sea. If you have the ability, you can open the lock and take out the night pearl inside, and this princess will offer the night pearl with both hands, how about?"
Yun Ruoyue was taken aback, the best night pearl?
Someone next to him immediately said, "Fifth princesses actually have Ye Mingzhu? This Ye Mingzhu is very rare, and less than three have been unearthed in a hundred years. She actually took the Ye Mingzhu out as a bet?"
"I heard that the night pearl is very bright and emits beautiful fluorescence. It shines at night and can replace candles and light a room. Within a hundred steps, you can see every hair, hold it in your mouth, and protect it. The corpse does not melt. Such a treasure is really invaluable, a rare treasure, and only the richest man in a country can afford it."
Hearing the science popularization of the ministers, Yun Ruoyue raised her eyebrows, "What do you mean, princess, do you want to bet against this princess?"
"Naturally." Feng Wu finished speaking, and took a jade box from the servant.
When she took out the jade box, she immediately shocked everyone.
I saw that this was a square jade box made of jadeite. The jade box was full of luminous green with crystal clear green light. It looked very moist and looked like a very expensive jade.
There was an iron lock hung on the jade box, the lock was dark black, and it was rusty and weathered.
In this jade box, is there really Ye Mingzhu?
Feng Lingtian also looked at Yun Ruoyue coldly, he wanted to see if she could open the jade box.
At this time, Feng Wu said: "Princess Li, this princess is betting with you, if you can open this lock and take out the Ye Mingzhu inside, I will give this Ye Mingzhu to you. If you can't open it, you have to be public. Kneel down, knock me a hundred beeps, and apologize to my Tianshengguo!"
As soon as this remark came out, everyone suddenly exclaimed.
"I know this jade box. The lock on this box is made of thousand-year-old cold iron. The design of the lock cylinder inside is very complicated. No matter how powerful a locksmith is, it can't be opened!"
"Yes, this is a peerless jade box, a treasure of the Tiansheng Kingdom. It is said that tens of thousands of people tried to open this lock, but in the end it was in vain. This lock is the most powerful craftsman. It can't be opened, let alone not at all. Princess Li who is proficient in unlocking."
"Tianshengguo used this jade box to bet with others and won a lot of treasures. Many people who wanted to get the peerless pearl in it used the Wanguan family wealth and the Feng family to bet, and they all fell to the point of bankruptcy."
"What is bankruptcy? In the past, the Lord of the Donglin Kingdom was greedy for this jewel of the night, so he used a city of his own to bet against the Lord of the Tiansheng Kingdom, saying that within three days, there must be talents and craftsmen in their country. He was able to open this jade box. In the end, he lost, let alone three days, it was thirty days, and no one could open it, so the Lord of the East Forest country lost a city!"
