Hua Yan asked his friend casually "Brother, that young man who caused a scene right now. It is the second master of the Gao family. Right?"
Xie Jing Shen looked at the stage below. And said "the prime minister Gao must have something up on his sleeve. He must have sent the second young master of his family for some reason."
"Still that young man acted like he owned this place. Which does not add up at all." Hua Yan said.
"There are many ways to make a person show something. No one cares if it's a scam or not. Only the reaction matters."
Hua Yan looked at his sworn brother who is talking a lot these days. Usually Xie Jing Shen doesn't talk much. He always keeps cold face all year around. However after he returned from the Yongjin he looked as if he is awaiting something.
If he saw his brother concerned about something he really liked to solve it. But no matter how much he pestered Xie Jing Shen that guy didn't reveal anything about it.
He can only sigh for himself. After all he respected that guy's personal space. This word was something he learned from his cousin. Remembering his cousin he wondered if that girl had come here.
She said she wanted something from the auction this time.
Hua Yan looked at the auction felt bored. He asked Xie Jing Shen " why did you come here anyway?. You are not interested in the items that are auctioned this time."
Xie Jing Shen snorted coldly. "did this duke asked you to come with this duke?"
Hua Yan had nothing to do so he shamelessly tagged with his brother.
"I wanted to come here. You know I can't let you go alone after all." Hua Yan shamelessly found himself an excuse.
Xie Jing Shen ignored him and focused on below.
After all he came here for a reason. He heard from his latest report that the person who left a mark on his heart will be appearing in this place. He wanted to catch a glimpse of that person so he came here to this place.
In the auction the final stage had arrived. In the private rooms all the big shot had their purpose finally arrive. The final high light of the event is the nine reflective mirror. When auctioneer bought forward the item all the guests looked eagerly at the thing covered in red cloth.
When Gu Mei Ya saw the item her hands are already itching to grab it. Her royal father liked those item with sparkly stuff. A very strange hobby for a man.
Her father emperor liked sparkly things. Especially if its carved in to shape. Gu Mei Ya can never understand it.
Even when she asked eunuch Gao who is been with her father emperor for a longest time couldn't decipher the hobby.
She looked at the stuff.
The auctioneer could pick up the excitement in the atmosphere of the auction house. "Dear guests today's final product is the nine reflective mirror."
She pulled the red cloth. Showing item. Everyone inhaled sharply. The item was in the shape of a tree. From a golden tree stem sprouted nine trunks. Each in pure gold. On the end of each trunk a mirror in pure bronze carved in. the entire mirror are polished until one can see the reflection of oneself clearly.
It really is beautiful. And over the trunks delicate carvings of the leaves and flowers decorated.
Gu Mei Ya smiled as she watched the nine reflective mirror.
