"Mother! Why? She actually dared to sell her dowry publicly, which is so embarrassing for father. Why didn't you let him know?" Shen Yue was unwilling to give up. She finally caught Shen Yu doing such a big mistake. She must tell father and let him know how wrong it was for not letting her marry Prince Zhuo! !

"What do you know! Let's get out of here quickly." After Mrs. Shen finished speaking, she took her daughter and wanted to leave the crowd, but they had been secretly watched by the guards of the palace. Whether it was them or the person who reported the news, it was too late to leave.

At this time, the front of Prince Zhuo's Mansion was so crowded that it was not enough to describe it. Even the streets next door were filled with people. Only a small path was tacitly left in the middle of the road. People kept shuttling back and forth in it, reporting every move on the platform to everyone.

Shen Yu went on stage for the "first time" today. She wore a deep red dress with gold embroidery on the collar and a dark gold belt that outlined her slender waist. The audience discovered for the first time that the princess had extremely beautiful facial features, but her appearance and temperament were rather delicate. Against the backdrop of the heavily embroidered fabric, her small face looked particularly charming, which was impressive at first sight.

How could such a beauty not be well-known before? She is not much worse than the rumored most beautiful woman in Luo City, Xu Yaying. Prince Zhuo is really lucky, as the two women related to him are both stunning.

The princess said, "Thank you for coming today. The emperor and the prince care about the people on the border. Although I am a woman in the harem, I also want to do my best. Before I got married, my father told me that when my mother married him, she had a dowry of ten miles. This dowry not only witnessed their steadfast love until death, but also showed the love of my mother's family. Now, it is also the confidence for me to marry into my husband's family as their daughter."

"Dad once said that if there is a need in the future, I can sell my dowry to help Zhuocheng overcome difficulties. He said that if my mother Su knew about this, she would be proud of me because I have not failed the Su family's century-old spirit, nor have I failed the teachings of the love of his life."

"Oh, that's right! The princess is also the granddaughter of Master Su."

"Thinking back then, Lord Shen had to work hard to get a third place in the imperial examination in order to marry Madam Shen."

"Lord Shen must have been very reluctant to marry his only beloved daughter to the North."

Seeing that the audience was almost in sync, Shen Yu continued, "Our prince once said that selling the treasures in the palace to merchants would save trouble and effort, and would also bring greater profits, but this sale and purchase would increase the purchasing costs for the people, so he wanted to promote this grand event. The prince wanted to help Zhuocheng, where he was born, but he also did not forget to repay Luocheng, which raised him. More importantly, he also wanted to repay the emperor for raising him. This is the original intention of this auction. Thank you all for your support."

The warmth grew wildly in his heart like weeds. Lu Yingxing felt that his wife was really too bold. Not only did she mention the Su Mansion, but she also openly helped to build momentum for the Zhuo Palace... She was indeed the most suitable princess for him.

Shen Yu on the stage had a much simpler idea: I'll give you the credit, and I'll also give you the trouble, hehe.

After exchanging glances with the guards in the audience and confirming that Shen Nian had arrived, Fu Yunxiu began the auction. "Now open the first box. Even the seal of the Shen Mansion is still there. It seems that the princess has too much dowry? She hasn't had time to check it yet? Haha."

Fu Yunxiu made a joke and the audience burst into laughter.

"For this first box, the dowry list of the princess reads: a pair of glazed carved blood jade bracelets, a Chaoyang eight-treasure jade hairpin, a white jade Ruyi hairpin inlaid with gems, a red gold hairpin inlaid with emerald sapphires, a golden Begonia jade hairpin, and a red coral glazed Su hairpin."

"These treasures look quite old. Look at the luster of the gold and the style. They should be from about 20 years ago. According to the current market value, the starting price would probably be more than 2,000 taels, and most of them would probably cost more than 10,000 taels."

Everyone: "!!!!!"

In order to allow the audience to see more clearly, the accessories were fixed on special black trays by six models and displayed vertically back and forth on the catwalk.

The crowd all craned their necks to look at it. Although most people could only see the rough outline, the golden color and the luxurious shape showed that it was definitely an ordinary item. Moreover, the dowry from the mansion of Su Taifu, the head of the aristocratic family, was already the best addition to this batch of dowry, not to mention that a hairpin was worth ten thousand taels! !

The onlookers were discussing the matter, and the guests who were eligible to bid were competing to bid. In the end, the transaction price was no less than six thousand taels.

Just when Fu Yunxiu was about to hand over the Red Coral Glazed Su Buyao to the winning bidder's servant, he suddenly looked embarrassed and seemed to be hesitant to speak...

Shen Yu clapped his hands crazily in his heart, and was extremely satisfied with his acting skills! He is indeed a good friend of Mr. Lu!

The wife of the Minister of the Central Secretariat was eagerly waiting for it. She had known about this hairpin when she was still a girl. It was the last work of the deceased old craftsman of "Feng Xi Ge" before his retirement. It took several years to polish it, and the coral and glass were cleverly wrapped together with extraordinary inlay technology, bringing out the potential of the two materials to the extreme. Whether it is texture, materials or technology, it is first-class.

Seeing that Shopkeeper Fu looked embarrassed and ordered his servants to go to the audience, Shen Yu took the initiative to ask, "Shopkeeper Fu, is there something wrong with this hairpin?"

"Please wait a moment, Princess. Let me let other shopkeepers of Zhenbaozhai come up to confirm and then answer your questions," Shopkeeper Fu answered truthfully.

Shen Yu nodded, then looked at the wife of the Minister of the Central Secretariat and apologized, "I'm sorry, madam. I guess the jewelry may have been stored for too long and has been slightly damaged. Since my mother passed away, I have moved to Lingzhu Temple. This batch of dowry has been sealed in the Shen Mansion. Because of the rush of time, I only saw the real thing today for the first time. But don't worry, I will definitely pay for the repair costs."

Mrs. Li, the Minister of the Central Secretariat, stood up immediately. She was also one of the 'Seven Fairies' and knew yesterday that Shen Yu was one of the only few black cards. She had a natural affinity for her. And seeing that someone from the 'Yuyi Pavilion' was so polite and responsible, her favorability towards her soared immediately.

"Princess Zhuo, you are too kind. This hairpin is one of the treasures I have dreamed of since I was young. I knew it was a dowry for the eldest daughter of the Su family. I thought I would never see it again in my lifetime. But today I accidentally bought it. It can be regarded as the fulfillment of my old dream that I dared not even dream of when I was a girl. Princess, don't say it's just a little damaged. I wouldn't mind even if it broke into two pieces."

Shen Yu waved his hand after hearing this, "Although Madam is generous, I cannot let you suffer any loss. Don't worry, I will bear all the repair costs."

These few words made the audience couldn't help but applaud. The princess is such a good person, so honest and beautiful, she deserves applause! !

"what?"

Suddenly there was a discordant voice.

"Look at this, how did the red coral on this hairpin turn into chicken blood jade?"
