C25 (2/2)
There seemed to be an extremely faint medicinal fragrance coming from the man, or perhaps from that private room.
Bai Zheng felt that this smell was very familiar, but she could not recall where she had smelled the medicinal fragrance before.
”Five thousand!” Feng Jingyi suddenly raised his number plate, and signaled a servant by the side to shout.
The Treasure-collecting Tower fell into a momentary silence, but very quickly, a voice sounded from the third floor: ”Five thousand and one hundred silver.”
Feng Jingyi's face changed instantly.
Bai Zheng retracted her spirit, looked at Feng Jingyi, and then looked at the room where the voice came from, as if she had thought of something, and asked: ”Is that Third Prince?”
Feng Jingyi nodded.
Bai Zheng comforted her while smiling: ”Even though Fifth Prince may not be able to do as you wish, Bai Zheng feels that Third Prince would probably not be able to get the Phoenix Sound Zither today.”
As if to verify Bai Zheng's words, following after, a voice came from the other side of the third floor: ”Five thousand five hundred silver.”
Feng Jingyi suddenly raised his head and looked in the direction of the sound in shock.
That's the crown prince!
Bai Zheng smiled. After all, she had just made it clear that the Chu Family was being plotted against by someone, and that someone wanted to dump Feng Jingye's filth, and that Feng Jingye was currently fuming at the top of his head.
I'm afraid that if Feng Jingxuan wants anything more, Feng Jingye will fight with him until the end.
The Treasure-collecting Tower quieted down once again. The price of 5000 taels of silver had already reached a high point. Many people could only sigh in admiration.
Even the Auctioneer below still did not make a sound.
The pretty girl walked forward once again and covered Feng Yin Qin with the red flannel. Only then did she walk up to the third floor with the zither in her hands.
After this event, Feng Jingyi had completely lost all interest in participating in the auction. He lowered his head to drink his tea, no longer paying any attention to the treasures that had just come out.
Bai Zheng watched the several matches with great interest, then her gaze uncontrollably stopped at the room that she had never participated in before.
Where exactly had he smelled that medicinal fragrance before? Was it from the many chemical experiments in his previous life, or were they memories that belonged to Bai Zheng? Or was this so-called familiarity just an illusion?
”What are you looking at?” Feng Jingyi suddenly walked to her side, and followed his gaze. Are you looking at Young Master Soong's room? ”
Bai Zheng's heart jumped at the sudden voice, but her expression did not change, and only laughed: ”Bai Zheng is weird, since this Young Master Soong has money, why are no one participating in these auctions?”
”Because he has seen too many good things, these ordinary treasures are nothing in his eyes.” Feng Jingyi returned to his seat and replied indifferently.
”I see that not only the Young Master Soong, even the friend beside him has never participated in today's excitement. It's also because I've seen a lot of good things. Indeed, rich people all around them are rich people. ” Bai Zheng lamented.
Feng Jingyi's gaze swept across Bai Zheng's face: ”Miss Bai doesn't recognize Marquis Dingyuan?”
Bai Zheng said in realization, ”Dingyuan? ”In that case, your highness did indeed call that young master that way in the private room just now. However, that young master doesn't seem to have a very good physique.”
Feng Jingyi nodded his head, his eyes flashed with an undetectable look of sorrow.
Bai Zheng sighed, ”What a pity, this Marquis Dingyuan looks so young, but her body is already so weak.”
Feng Jingyi lowered his head, the candle light casting a shadow on his face, making it hard for people to see his expression.
A piece of Sichuan muslin cut off the noise outside, and the room fell into silence, the only sound being the crackling of the candle wick.
Just when Bai Zheng thought that Feng Jingyi wouldn't speak, she heard his hoarse and obscure voice.
”I originally thought that everyone in Yongding City knew about him.”
