The divine doctor's concubine emptied the palace and went into exile

Chapter 392 The auction begins

"Today there are a total of thirty items for auction, and each one is extremely valuable." She waved her jade hand lightly, and a maid came forward with a herb on a tray.

Shang Ruoyi glanced at the herb. What was so precious about it? It was just a common detoxifying herb, and she had a handful of it in her space.

"This is a detoxifying herb that can only grow in extremely cold places. It can cure all kinds of poisons. It is the favorite herb of the divine doctor. It is called Crane Grass. The starting price is one hundred taels."

Ordinary people cannot use this kind of herb. It will only be effective if it is made into pills or boiled.

Many medical families came today, so this herb is very popular.

"One hundred and fifty taels."

"One hundred and eighty taels."

"One hundred and ninety taels."

The sound of bidding continued.

Jun Luoyun was sitting on the fourth floor, looking at the herb, a bright light flashed across his eyes.

"Father, I want this herb."

The King of the City waved his hand, and the guards behind him walked outside and whispered, "Five hundred taels."

Five hundred taels!

The crowd couldn't help but be shocked.

Although this herb is rare, it is not worth five hundred taels!

Three hundred taels is already the limit.

"I heard that Princess Luoyun is not only beautiful, but also has great medical skills. I'm sure this herb was given to her by the prince."

"Considering the love that the City King has for Princess Luoyun, what is this little bit of silver?"

Shang Ruoyi raised her eyebrows slightly when she heard this. Her biological father was really nice to Jun Luoyun's adopted daughter!

"Five hundred taels, is there anyone who can offer a higher price?"

Jun Luoyun raised his chin slightly, this herb must be his.

"Five hundred taels once, five hundred taels twice, five hundred taels..."

Before he finished speaking, he heard a lazy voice coming from the second floor: "Five hundred and one taels."

"puff!"

How many?

Five hundred and one taels?

The targeted intention was too obvious. Who didn't know that the person sitting in the room on the fourth floor was the City King?

"The guest in the room that just raised the price must be the one that the City King mistakenly recognized earlier!"

"seems like it."

Everyone's eyes were on that room. The Seventh Prince in the room was sweating profusely. He said in horror: "Are you crazy? Are you trying to steal something from my uncle?"

Shang Ruoyi shrugged disapprovingly: "I like that herb too, why, is that not okay?"

"Okay, but you have to know who you are robbing from!"

"I know!" Shang Ruoyi smiled. "If others can't bid for things that the City Prince likes, then what's the point of holding this auction? Is it to let us see the financial strength of the City Prince's Mansion? Or to see how favored a certain princess in the City Prince's Mansion is? If that's the case, then this auction house shouldn't be auctioning things, but should be setting up a stage to perform a play, to let everyone in the world see how much the City Prince dotes on that adopted daughter."

Shang Ruoyi did not lower her voice intentionally, and the soundproofing in the room was not very good, so everyone could hear her words clearly.

At this moment, everyone in the meeting hall was stunned. No one thought that someone would be so bold as to say such outrageous words.

Set up a stage to perform a play?

Isn't this just a blatant insult?

Jun Luoyun sat in the room with a sullen face.

Adopted daughter.

These are the two words she hates the most.

She is obviously the most favored princess in the City Prince's Mansion, why is she called an adopted daughter?

"Father, someone actually said that. It's obvious that they don't take our City Prince's Mansion seriously." She said angrily, "Father, you must not let her go!"

The King of the City raised his brows slightly. He didn't know how long it had been since someone said this to him. Normally, he should be angry, but for some reason, he couldn't get angry.

"There's nothing wrong with what she said. This auction is supposed to allow people to compete fairly. The highest bidder wins. If you want it, just raise the price."

Jun Luoyun said coldly: "Eight hundred taels."

Shang Ruoyi smiled and half-lay on the couch: "Eight hundred and one taels."

hiss!

Targeting! Naked targeting!

"One thousand taels!"

"One thousand and one taels." Shang Ruoyi took a bite of the dessert and said lightly.

The seventh prince next to him had silently moved his chair away, fearing that the emperor's uncle would rush in and hurt innocent people.

She is so bold that she even dares to challenge the emperor's uncle. Isn't she afraid that the emperor's uncle will get angry and slap her to death?

Jun Luoyun was so angry that he jumped up and down, clenched his fists tightly, and said in a deep voice: "Father, this person did it on purpose!"

"Yeah." The City King nodded. The brat must have done it on purpose. He agreed with her, but he was not angry at all in his heart. He even thought her behavior was extremely interesting.

Seeing that he just agreed casually and had no intention of getting angry, Jun Luoyun could not help but said in a cold voice: "Father, this man is so rude and does not take our City Palace seriously at all. This is in the Western Regions. Disrespecting you is disrespecting the Western Regions royal family, which is a capital crime."

"I just said that this is an auction. If you like it, just raise the price. It's not like our palace can't afford such a small amount of money."

Jun Luoyun clenched his fist, looked at the herb, and said loudly: "Two thousand taels!"

Two thousand taels!

A plant worth only three hundred taels was auctioned off for a high price of two thousand taels. Everyone was astonished. Wan Qing on the platform was delighted. The first lot sold so well, which was really a very good omen.

When Shang Ruoyi heard the figure of two thousand taels, she whispered, "Your uncle is really willing to spend money!"

"His adopted daughter is also a daughter, so he is willing to give her up."

Shang Ruoyi heard this, her lips curled slightly, and she smiled and said, "Since the princess likes it, I won't argue with you."

When Jun Luoyun heard her say this, a victorious smile appeared on his face. "You are worthy enough to compete with this princess!"

Soon, a maid brought the herbs into the room. Jun Luoyun looked at the herbs and felt extremely satisfied.

Shang Ruoyi looked indifferent and turned her gaze to the next item.

"Why don't you take pictures?" The Seventh Prince asked in a low voice, "You are a doctor, don't you need the herbs for detoxification?"

"This crane grass is different from other herbs. The medicinal effects of other herbs can still be preserved after being exposed to the sun and air-dried, but this is not the case with crane grass." This crane grass must be picked fresh to be used as medicine. Those that are air-dried, such as the one Jun Luoyun bought today, have no medicinal value.

When the Seventh Prince heard this, he exclaimed, "You know that the air-dried ones have no medicinal value, why did you still take them?"

"I like it. I have plenty of money. Is that not okay?"

How could the Seventh Prince dare to say anything after hearing what she said? He only prayed that if he really angered the Emperor's uncle, he would not be beaten together with him.

The next few items were all sold at a good price. Wan Qing was very happy and her eyes would fall on Shang Ruoyi's private room from time to time.
