But obviously, the man wasn't willing to give up. He looked at Huo Jingchen and continued, "Huo, I wonder if this embroidery was taken by you? "
For a moment, everyone's eyes fell on Huo Jingchen.
Huo Jingchen raised his eyes and glanced at him. His gaze was deep. "No. "
Gu Anhui's expression immediately relaxed a little. Seeing that Huo Jingchen had publicly denied that he had taken the embroidery for Zhao Siqing, she felt much better.
Whether it was to protect Zhao Siqing or for the sake of the overall situation.
Huo Jingchen had at least publicly disowned his relationship with Zhao Siqing.
Gu Anhui looked up at Zhao Siqing. As long as this embroidery had nothing to do with Huo Jingchen, she was waiting to see old madam huo fly into a rage and chase Zhao Siqing away.
Gu Anhui's eyes brightened at the thought of this.
Her gaze fell on Zhao Siqing, and the smile in her eyes grew wider.
She did not know if she would be able to remain so calm later. When Madam Huo ordered someone to drag her out, she would be in a sorry state.
At the thought of this, Gu Anhui spoke again, "regardless of the origin of this embroidery and its value, since it is a birthday gift from Miss Zhao to Madam Huo, it must be a token of her appreciation. "
Madam Huo patted her hand, seemingly satisfied. "Huihui's words are right. Etiquette is not important. The most important thing is to have this token of appreciation. "
"Old Madam, I've heard that the embroidery of this piece is very good. Why don't we take this opportunity today to let everyone see it? " Gu Anhui said gently, her eyes filled with anticipation.
"Alright, since Huihui has said so, then this old woman will watch and observe with everyone. Miss Zhao, do you have any objections? " Old Madam Huo's gaze landed on Zhao Siqing as she spoke in a deep voice.
Zhao Siqing smiled and said gently, "guests should follow the host. Moreover, this gift is for old Madam's birthday. Naturally, it will be at old Madam's disposal. "
Upon hearing this, old Madam Huo smiled and said, "in that case, get someone to carry it up. "
Immediately, four servants each lifted a corner and moved the three-meter-long embroidery to the front of everyone.
The embroidery was covered with a dark red velvet cloth. Old Madam Huo stood up and personally lifted the velvet cloth.
What entered their eyes was a magnificent and majestic landscape. The Majestic Mountains and vast rivers whistled in response, and the sun was round and Golden. It only made people's hearts tremble when they saw it, and it was exceptionally spacious.
Gu Anhui's line of sight immediately began to search for this embroidery. The reason why this "splendid landscape" could be auctioned off at such a sky-high price was not only because the ancestor of the embroidered lady had once worked for the empress dowager in the palace, but also because the embroidery was under the changing lights The words "enjoy your family forever, live a long life without Borders" would appear.
It was rumored that this was because the embroidered lady had used a special type of embroidery thread and needlework, so it would not appear normally. Only when the light reached a certain level would these words appear, thus giving the embroidery a layer of mysterious color.
At that time, she had also wanted to bid for this embroidery to give to old Madam Huo. However, after she snatched the jade Buddha, the embroidery fell into Zhao Siqing's hands.
However, she wanted to curry favor with old Madam Huo She would not let her have her way!
Gu Anhui walked around the embroidery for a long time and kept adjusting the angle. Only then did she vaguely see the words 'heaven' and 'none' appearing on the embroidery. The corners of her lips could not help but curl up a little.
'The heavens will destroy the earth, and there will be no complete corpse! '!
Zhao Siqing probably would not have thought that she had bribed the embroidery lady to change the words on this embroidery.
