856: C856 It's Called Dark Silver Ice

C856 It's Called Dark Silver Ice

The flesh of the grape fruit was plump and melted instantly, giving off an indescribably sweet feeling.

After leisurely eating a few grapes, Gao Fei stood up from the stairs. The two eunuchs beside him quickly turned around, waved their whisk and prepared to enter the main hall.

There were not many eunuchs in the palace, only a few dozen people. After all, from past generations, King of Loulan was a female and did not need any service from the Three Palaces, Six Houses, and 72 Consort. The only reason why there were eunuchs was that they continued the Han Dynasty's rules and regulations, which had a greater formal meaning.

Furthermore, these people did not enter the palace because they had been circumcised. They all had hidden ailments and could not marry and have children. Thus, they came to the palace to be eunuchs and mess around. It could be said that they were using trash.

Gao Fei didn't turn around. He held onto the railing on both sides of the stairs and walked down.

The two eunuchs felt it was strange and hurriedly followed her. "Prince Consort, where are you going?"

"I want to go for a walk."

Gao Fei raised his head and looked at the street outside the plaza's noontime gate: "Let's go for a walk on the street."

Although he was still muddle-headed, he was not a person who could stand loneliness. He had been lying on the bed during his recovery, and now that he could walk, he could no longer hold it in. He could not help but take a walk on the street.

When Gao Fei said he wanted to walk around casually, the two eunuchs jumped in fright and hurriedly tried to stop him. "Prince Consort, you haven't recovered yet. How could you?"

Gao Fei raised his hand to interrupt the eunuch: "I know my physical condition very well. It's not as serious as you say. I was just walking around."

Seeing that Gao Fei refused to listen and insisted on going out, the two eunuchs looked at each other and placed the tray on the steps. One of them turned around and walked away quickly while the other followed beside Gao Fei.

Gao Fei didn't care about it. He walked down the long stairs slowly and walked out of the noontime gate.

The street outside the palace was the most bustling one in Lou Lan's country. It was about fifty meters wide, with restaurants, food stores, and jewelry stores on both sides of the street. There were ox-carts, palanquins, and people riding on donkeys and walking on foot.

If it was only Gao Fei who was strolling on the streets, perhaps no one would notice him. However, there was a eunuch by his side. As long as his eyes were not blind, anyone with intelligence would be able to guess his identity. After all, King of Loulan had already 'announced' that he had raised a prince consort in the palace.

Naturally, everyone wouldn't kneel on the ground to greet him just because he was his consort. At most, they would only bow slightly after meeting him, respectfully inviting him to leave first.

He walked around with his hands behind his back, looking at a piece of porcelain, and then asked about the price of the pottery pot. Half an hour later, he slowly arrived in front of a small jewelry store and casually picked up a jade pendant.

Underground, Lou Lan only had a black rock mountain and most of the jade pendants were black jade. In the outside world, black jade was very valuable, but in the outside world, it was worth a lot of money.

Seeing someone pick up a black jade pendant, the old man with wrinkles all over his face laughed like a chrysanthemum: "Dear guest, have you taken a fancy to this jade pendant? "This is the authentic Black Dragon Jade!"

When the old man said this, he saw that there was a eunuch behind Gao Fei. His smile froze on his face and he suddenly knew who Gao Fei was running into. He quickly took a step back and lowered his head as he muttered, "I greet Lord Prince Consort."

"You're welcome, I'm just taking a casual look."

Gao Fei was not used to being treated with such respect. He smiled as he held the jade in his hand, looked at the sun and praised, "This piece of jade is of good quality, crystal clear, warm and glossy, with a cotton-like pattern on the inside. It should be a high-quality black jade."

In Gao Fei's impression, he had been in contact with jade before, so he had some knowledge of appraising jade. Picking up this jade pendant, based on the perception and observation of his hands, he was sure that it was a good piece of jade.

When the old man heard Prince Consort praise the jade he was selling, he was overjoyed. "Sir Prince Consort, if you think this jade is good, then you can take it. It's not worth money."

"Hehe, how can you buy things without paying? I'm not buying it, I'm just looking around. "

Gao Fei chuckled and hung the jade on the shelf. He casually asked, "What's the name of this black jade?"

The old man replied, "Reporting to Lord Prince Consort, Black Jade's name is Yinbing."

"Yinbing? The jade is black, why do you call it Yinbing? "

After hearing these two words, Gao Fei suddenly had a strange feeling, but he couldn't say it. He frowned and put it down and started asking why it was called Yinbing.

According to Gao Fei's understanding, Yinbing was silver and white ice. If some kind of jade stone called this name, then it meant that the jade stone eye was at least silver white, like ice.

However, this piece of jade was black, completely black, and didn't seem to have any experience with silver.

The little old man smiled as he explained, "Lord Prince Consort, the reason why the black jade is called Yinbing is not because of its color, but because of the material inside."

The name of the material used to make the black jade was Yinbing, a common knowledge known to the public in the underground world.

The little old man specialized in selling jade pendants, so of course he knew more than others. He began to show off his jade pendant and said to the sun, "Lord Prince Consort, please take a look, although this jade pendant is black, there are white cotton patterns on the inside. It looks like a frozen lake, so the name of this jade is Yinbing."

"Oh, so that's how Yinbing's name came about."

Gao Fei suddenly smiled and asked with interest, "Then, does this Yinbing have good or bad points?"

"Of course there are. Yinbing is divided into three types, one is above ground level and the other is hidden in those blackstones. These kinds of blackstones are the easiest to find, so we call it Surface Yinbing and it's the cheapest."

The old man said confidently, "As for the second method, it belongs to the shallow mines. We need to dig a few meters down the mines. As for Yinbing's jade stone, it is hidden underground. Compared to Yinbing on the surface, it is not exposed to the wind or the sun, so it is much warmer. It's called light Yinbing, so it is relatively more expensive. "

To be able to spread the knowledge of jade for the Prince Consort was an honor for the little old man, so he explained very clearly: "The best kind of jade is Yinbing, it comes from tens or even hundreds of meters underground, and it even comes from the underground river. After being mined, the jade will be dark in color, as if there was a layer of oil floating on top of it. However, the cotton pattern inside the jade will be snow-white and clear, and can even form the shape of a mountain, a forest, or even a human face. "

"This kind of black jade is the best in Yinbing's world, especially in the underground river. It can only be found, not sought. Because it's deep underground, it's also called Yinbing. Price …"

The moment the old man said this, Gao Fei's expression changed: "Yinbing?"

The old man nodded, "Yes, it's called Deep Yinbing. This kind of deep Yinbing is not only the best amongst the black jade, but also a king among all the jade stones like Tian Bai, Huang Yu and the others. Therefore, according to the legends, this deep Yinbing comes from the Heavenly Dao of the Six Daos and is used before the Heavenly Emperor Palace.

Just as the old man was full of energy, he saw Lord Prince Consort grab his head with both hands and squat down on the ground with a pained expression on his face. He was immediately frightened out of his wits.

Subconsciously, he reached out to help him up. Following behind Gao Fei, the eunuch swept his horsetail whisk, then abruptly slapped his hand as he screamed: "Take off your stolen hands! Prince Consort Ma, Prince Consort Ma, what's wrong with you? "

As soon as the eunuch called out, the surrounding pedestrians looked over and were about to surround him. However, they immediately dispersed, hiding as far as they could. It was as if a plague had suddenly broken out here.

They did not dare to come over because they had seen the eunuch and recognized the prince consort.

Prince Consort Ma's face was suddenly filled with pain as he clutched his head and squatted there. Who knew what would happen? If he surrounded them to watch the show, the eunuchs would mistake him for someone who wanted to hurt Prince Consort.

Only the old man who sold the jade pendant was trembling in fear. He didn't dare to leave, and eventually fell to his knees on the ground with a thump.

"Men! Quickly report to the palace that the Prince Consort is sick!"

The eunuch screamed as he threw away the Buddhist dust to help Gao Fei. Cold sweat broke out on his face as he was extremely regretful. 'I shouldn't have let Prince Consort come to the streets. If something happens to me, won't Her Majesty The Queen skin me alive?'

It was better if the eunuchs did not call out for him. With that, half the people on the street ran off with their hands behind their heads.

"Deep Yinbing, Lily, Deep, Deep, Yinbing! Why does this name sound so familiar? It seems like it's a person's name, and it accompanied me the entire time. But how come I can't think of who this person is! "

When the old man said the name 'Deep Yinbing', a light suddenly flashed across Gao Fei's mind. He vaguely remembered a person, but as he continued to think, his head felt as if it was about to split open.

The more it hurt, the more the name became more and more blurry, but he continued to hold on to the name, hoping to think of something from it. In the end, his face became as frightening as golden paper, and he wanted to vomit, but in the end, his vision went black, and he fell to the ground with a crash.

Just when the passersby were dodging one after another, a woman with a bamboo basket, a big belly, and a black veil on her head ran over and helped the eunuch up so that he could sit on the ground.

"Thank you, thank you."

The eunuch thanked her and looked up. The woman had already taken off her veil, revealing a delicate and pretty face.

He was stunned for a moment before recognizing the pregnant woman. "Ah, you're Shui'er!"

The woman called Shui'er didn't answer the eunuch. She only placed Gao Feiping back on the ground and pinched one of his men, saying, "Eunuch, go quickly and call for someone. I'll help you look after Prince Consort's horse!"

"This, this …"

The eunuch was really worried about Shui'er taking care of Gao Fei. However, he had no one else to take care of, so he could only stomp his feet in anger. He turned around and ran towards the palace with the intention of calling a few guards.2

The eunuch had just run a few steps when he heard the thundering sound of horse hooves at the end of the street behind him. Turning his head to look, he saw a white horse galloping over, and from afar, he could see the man on the horse wearing a black robe and a bronze mask.

It was the queen of the underground lake, Moxie Zhengdong.

The white horse was as fast as lightning, almost in a blink of an eye, but the horse did not slow down at all. Just as the eunuch was about to pull the reins, King of Loulan let out a soft shout and flew down.

The white horse let out a long hiss, but it did not stop and continued on its way.
