The Regent's Tender Darling

Lin Jiaojiao was more interested in what Chen Qian was doing outside. After all, she was just a woman who had been trapped in a big house her entire life, and was not as knowledgeable as her cousin.

At least in his previous life, he lived in the yard all his life.

Most of what she has seen and heard is through books, which is always less interesting than seeing it with her own eyes.

She looked at her wrist. Such a fine jade was indeed a tribute, but now it was in her hand.

Her cousin, the Chen family, loves her very much. In her previous life, she actually brought the Chen family to such end. In this life, she will definitely not let anything happen to the Chen family!

Chen Qian, who was sitting next to her, was looking at her cousin all the time. She felt... strange.

In her memory, the cousin was not only lively and cute, but also very squeamish. She was also a disobedient troublemaker from time to time, and was often spanked by her.

But now Jiaojiao seems to have changed, she has become a lady, and she looks like the well-behaved young ladies in Hangzhou.

Before this, when she gave things to her cousin, her cousin never thought of rejecting them because they were valuable.

Maybe it's because my cousin has grown up and is living in the capital, so there are more rules, or maybe it's been a long time since I last saw her, so we grew apart.

Xuemei looked at it carefully from the side, her eyes shining, and finally couldn't help but say: "I'm afraid this kind of jadeite is rare to see in a hundred years."

Chen Qian, who had been secretly sizing up Lin Jiaojiao, was stunned after hearing this, and then retorted: "What is rare in this? The Yaoer Kingdom is rich in jade, but the truly rare thing in a century is the Purple Jade Guanyin. It’s been a hundred years, even if it’s been ten thousand years, I can’t find anything that good.”

"Purple Jade Guanyin?" Lin Jiaojiao had seen it in a book, so she said, "Isn't that a rumor? No one has ever seen it."

The book says: As tall as a strong man, lifelike, Guanyin's pure white jade vase, green willow in the center, purple shirt, white body, not like a jade sculpture, there is no such masterpiece in the world.

It came from the hands of Master Liusha, who died in the thirty-fifth year of Tianyuan. He died of exhausting his efforts for Purple Jade Guanyin.

This is the original text she saw in the book. No one in the world has seen such a natural thing, and she doesn't know whether it is true or not. It is said that Yaoer Kingdom paid tribute to Danan, but Danan did not have such tribute at all.

"Just because you haven't seen it doesn't mean you don't have it. I visited Master Yuwen, the disciple of Master Liusha of the Yaoer Kingdom, and it is indeed true. However, the purple jade Guanyin was snatched away after leaving the Yaoer Kingdom. It once appeared on the black market. Now, the royal family of Nao'er Kingdom and the Southern Imperial Court are looking for the Purple Jade Guanyin."

Chen Qian said it seriously, not just talking nonsense. And Lin Jiaojiao knew that her cousin had never been a person who liked to make up stories.

It seems that this Purple Jade Guanyin really exists. If anyone can get it, he will be able to buy half of the Southern Ocean.

Even a family as big as the Chen family had to spend a lot of money to afford the Purple Jade Guanyin.

So she didn't think anyone would buy this purple jade Guanyin.

After all, this thing is too good to be sold easily. It may be sold at a low price in the end, but even at a low price, it is still a sum of money that no one can count.

Thinking of this, Lin Jiaojiao felt vaguely uneasy. If this thing fell into the hands of someone with evil intentions, she was afraid that this Purple Jade Guanyin would no longer be Guanyin.

As Chen Qian was talking, he seemed to have thought of something interesting, and continued: "Don't tell me, I have been doing business for so many years, and I encountered a strange thing this time when I went to Yaoer Kingdom."

These words brought Lin Jiaojiao back from her thoughts. When she took a look, she realized that Xuemei was staring at her cousin seriously with wide eyes. It seemed that the two of them had already talked a lot while she was thinking about something.

Just like when they were children, when her cousin came back from a long trip, she and Xuemei would always lie down at the table and listen to her cousin tell interesting stories.

"Something strange?" She also looked at Chen Qian curiously, waiting for the next step.
