Chapter 935 Only You Are Deserving

As soon as the words came out, a look of confusion flashed in the man's eyes.

If it is ten percent small, it is too small.

But he still turned his head and called Su Peisheng in.

After a while, Su Peisheng came in holding a water-blue enamel jewelry box.

When he walked outside the screen, he handed the jewelry box to Banmei.

After Banmei took it, she walked into the screen and knelt beside the bed.

And open the jewelry box.

All of a sudden, Ruoyin felt a radiant light shining towards her, almost blinding her eyes.

A pair of eyes also closed reflexively when the box was opened.

When she opened her eyes again, she carefully looked at the jewelry box.

Only then did I realize that there were diamond rings of different styles.

There are round, drop-shaped, heart-shaped, crown-shaped, rectangular, square...

As for the size, there are quail eggs, pigeon eggs, soybean size.

At a glance, it seems that soybeans are the smallest kind.

In the end, she counted them, and there were a total of twenty or so.

Ruoyin raised his head and asked in a daze, "Your Majesty, what are you going to do?"

"Since you don't like the one that was given to you just now, then pick one from here and wear it." His voice was flat, but there was a domineering vigor.

It seems that no matter what, she must choose one to wear today.

Ruoyin didn't know why he was so persistent.

But for the sake of his rare thoughtfulness, he carefully looked at the diamond ring in the jewelry box.

Ruoyin is not a high-profile person.

When it comes to jewelry, she has always asked for something that suits her, and then looks good.

Therefore, those quail eggs and pigeon eggs have been excluded by her for the first time.

Her eyes only choose between those "soybeans".

Not long after, she slightly possessed herself, and took out a square diamond ring from the jewelry box.

The main diamond is about 2 carats, without any other decorations and names around it.

The ring is platinum inlaid with fine diamonds.

It looks simple and atmospheric, yet elegant.

Moreover, she tried it directly on the ring finger of her right hand.

Ruoyin put his right hand under the light for a closer look, nodded in satisfaction and said, "Well, this princess is still pretty, simple and grand, just about half the size of my finger, very suitable for concubines. "

At this moment, she felt joy from the bottom of her heart.

Because she picked out jewelry that suits her.

This diamond ring is just the right size.

Under the candlelight, it is as crystal clear as transparent dew, emitting a pure light.

However, the fourth master on the side didn't think so.

He looked at the ring on the woman's finger with a puzzled expression.

No matter from which angle he looked at it, he couldn't appreciate this so-called princess party.

To him, it was nothing more than a square stone.

Not as good as that big, shiny, heart-shaped diamond ring.

The fourth master, who has always been outspoken, couldn't help but venomously said: "I have to say, the queen's vision and taste are really bad."

Hearing this, Ruoyin, who was just immersed in joy, twitched the corners of his mouth slightly.

I said in my heart that you are a straight man of steel, what do you know?

She didn't say that he didn't understand women's taste, but he had the nerve to speak venomously.

Ruoyin rolled his eyes in his heart.

Forget it, for the sake of the jewelry he gave her, I don't know as much as him.

She just raised her head and smiled at the man, "Your Majesty, why did you suddenly think of giving away your concubine?"

But when she asked what she said, fourth master sat by the bed and didn't speak.

It was just a pair of eyes, giving the slave in the room a cold look.

In the end, it was Su Peisheng who caught the eye, and hurriedly took Banmei and the other servants out.

When only Ruoyin and fourth master were left in the room, the man coughed lightly and said calmly, "I heard that this diamond is also called diamond, and it is a kind of ore mined by foreigners. They say that diamonds are the tears of gods. Diamonds are listed as the sun among planetary gems. Some even say that diamonds are fragments of stars scattered on the ground, and they are an auspicious gem."

After saying that, the man paused for a while, and then continued: "They also said that women love diamonds, so I ordered someone to pick some good ones for you."

As for the sayings about love between children, he omitted them all.

At this moment, Ruoyin couldn't help twitching the corners of his mouth when he heard fourth master's words.

In this Qing Dynasty, diamonds have not yet been mined.

It's just some foreigners from abroad, missionaries, who brought diamonds to China to sell.

Because things are rare and expensive, and diamonds are indeed more eye-catching than other jewelry.

Therefore, some princes and nobles regard diamonds as a symbol of social status.

Which noble girl, if she wears a piece of jewelry studded with diamonds, she will be the envy of the people around her.

Also, because diamonds are precious.

In this dynasty where men are superior to women, basically women can't afford it by themselves and need men to give it to them.

But because of the high price, many men can only give one for a lifetime.

Even if you spend your whole life's family property, you can't give away diamond jewelry.

That's why it's said that "one piece will last forever", "only one piece will be given away in a lifetime", and so on.

But when the fourth master gave it away, it was a dozen.

This... She doesn't even know what to say.

"Your Majesty, how about this, the concubine has already chosen this one, and let them return the rest, or send it to the warehouse."

"No, these are meant to be given to you together." The man said without hesitation.

"But my concubine only has one pair of hands, how can I wear so many?" Ruoyin said distressedly.

"Don't you have ten fingers?"

Ruoyin: "..."

Could it be possible to let her wear all ten fingers? That would be too...inhumane!

"It's really impossible, you can change it every day, anyway, I will never take back what I gave you." The man said coldly, and added at the end, "And this one in your hand, since you wear it, you are not allowed to wear it." Take it off."

If it's ugly, let's be ugly, since she likes it, then let her be.

Listening to fourth master's domineering orders, Ruoyin finally remembered the fear of being dominated by fourth master to give gifts many years ago.

At that time, he carved a wooden comb for her by himself, but she rejected him.

Ever since, he was thrown into the lake directly.

He really answered his words: I will never take back what I give you, but you can throw it away.

If she would not accept these jewelries, I'm afraid he would really order someone to throw them all out, right?

"The concubine thanked the emperor first, but..." Ruoyin looked at the quail egg that the fourth master gave her first, and said weakly: "This diamond ring is too precious, and the concubine also wears it." No, it’s better to just return this one, or put this one in the warehouse.”

She doesn't know how to wear such a precious thing, and it would suck for ashes to put it in Yongshou Palace.

"Empress, do you know that there was no concubine system in the Qing Dynasty, but after Huang Kao established the concubine system, he divided the harem concubines into nine levels, among which the queen belongs to no rank, because the queen is a super class and unique , and there can only be one.”

As he said that, he looked at the heart-shaped diamond ring the size of a quail egg, and said, "Coincidentally, there is only one of this thing in the world. Therefore, only you are worthy of it."
