Stand-in eunuch: I pamper the harem for the emperor

Chapter 482 Choosing Diamonds

"Master Xiang, is the bag filled with jade?"

Xuanyuan Lingyu asked with a smile.

"no!"

Lu Hao shook his head again.

"If it's not emerald, it's pearl!"

Xuanyuan Lingyu made a bold guess.

"Neither!"

Lu Hao smiled and continued to shake his head.

"Master Prime Minister, the bag isn't filled with diamonds, is it?"

Nangong Ruoxue asked loudly.

Lu Hao was slightly stunned, thinking that this princess was knowledgeable and courageous!

Seeing that Lu Hao did not deny it, everyone suddenly realized that there must be diamonds inside.

However, there are too few diamonds. How can there be such a bag?
"Congratulations to Princess Thirteen, you got the answer right! You can be the first to choose."

Lu Hao happily revealed the answer.

"Are they really diamonds? How come you have so many diamonds?"

Nangong Ruoxue was so excited that she jumped up and down.

"Of course it's diamonds. Come here, bring some big jade plates."

Lu Hao ordered loudly.

Soon, ten jade plates were placed on the table.

This kind of white jade plate is about the same size as a plate. If it is used to hold other things, it cannot be turned much. However, if it is used to hold diamonds, it will be different.

Lu Hao took the bag and walked to the first jade plate, immediately attracting everyone's attention.

The bag was opened and tilted slightly, and crystal clear diamonds, like crystal pearls, fell into the jade plate.

Under the light of the lights, colorful lights shone, and it seemed that the lights of the entire hall were dimmed.

In the main hall, everyone held their breath and looked at the diamonds of different sizes in the jade plate. Their minds were buzzing and they were completely dead.

Many beauties are now so excited that they are shaking and covering their mouths for fear of screaming.

As for the men, it was the first time they saw so many diamonds. Their eyes were so wide that they almost fell off.

"Wow! It's really a diamond!"

Nangong Ruoxue screamed.

Everyone suddenly woke up and quickly suppressed their frantic heartbeats to avoid making a fool of themselves.

One jade plate with diamonds was scary enough, but Lu Hao quickly filled all ten jade plates.

There are diamonds of different sizes, and the big ones naturally attract everyone’s attention.

"Princess Thirteen, I keep my word. You guessed it right. You are the first to choose, but you can only choose one."

Lu Hao said with a smile.

"Then I want the biggest one."

Nangong Ruoxue saw the largest diamond at a glance.

She stepped forward and directly picked the largest diamond, which was about the size of her thumb. She was so excited that she danced with joy, hugged Lu Hao, and kissed him hard.

The entire hall suddenly fell into deathly silence.

"Cough cough cough..."

Lu Hao coughed a few times in embarrassment, and then everyone came back to their senses.

"Next, I started to read the name. When I read the name, I quickly came up to pick, but I can only pick one!"

Lu Hao reiterated the rules again.

"Tantai Xiyao, Chen Yuhuan, Dong Xiaowan, Xiao Yuner..."

Lu Hao called out the first wave of people to be selected on stage.

There is no doubt that a queen and three noble concubines were naturally the first to be selected on stage.

Chen Yuhuan and Dong Xiaowan were very excited and went on stage to select diamonds in person.

This was given to them by Lu Hao, so naturally they had to choose the one they liked.

"Ruoxue, come and help me choose." Chen Yuhuan asked Nangong Ruoxue to help her.

After all, there are so many diamonds in ten jade plates, and they are of different sizes. How to distinguish the value of them probably requires the princess of the Sui Empire to be an expert.

In fact, the diamond chosen by Nangong Ruoxue was about the size of a thumb, while the diamonds chosen by the other four beauties were only slightly smaller.

However, for diamonds measured in carats, the difference in value is huge even with a small size.

"The following are, Liu Rufeng, Situ Tianyin, Xuanyuan Lingyu, Liu Ruxu, Dong Xiaojun, Wu Qingyu, Xia Wei, Nalan Xiuting..."

Lu Hao called out the list for the second wave.

Anyone with a discerning eye knows that these beauties are basically all his concubines, so there is nothing wrong with choosing them first.

Besides, these people are core members of the Lu Family Army, and Lu Hao will definitely not treat them badly.

Xia Wei and Nalan Xiuting were surprised and overjoyed, and felt extremely grateful to Lu Hao.

In fact, there are so many diamonds, even if a few beauties choose a few big ones, there are still many big diamonds to choose from.

"The following are Tantai Mingyue and his wife, the six ministers, the six ministers..."

Lu Hao called the third wave of personnel list.

These people are all high-level officials of the Imperial Military Aircraft Department and the core of the Imperial regime.

Tantai Mingyue and his wife were so happy that they could not open their mouths from ear to ear when they thought that their daughter was about to become a queen and could also choose diamonds in advance.

The six ministers and ministers are the principal and deputy positions of the six ministers. They should also have this honor and feel very happy.

After all, the chief and deputy positions of the six ministers are all men, so the diamonds are naturally chosen for the wives.

Lu Hao let them take such a precious gift back, and his wife must have been extremely happy.

"The following are the deputy generals, staff generals, and army generals of the two armies, and the important personnel of the six departments..."

Lu Hao called out the fourth wave of people.

There were a large number of people, and they were also the largest group of people. They all came on stage and started to choose the diamonds they wanted.

Among the remaining personnel, except for the servants brought and the eunuchs and maids in the palace, there were not many people.

However, the people who can come to the dinner are naturally not ordinary people, such as Xia Wei's father Xia Peilin, General Xue Yue's wife and a pair of children.

Lu Hao asked Xia Peilin to come on stage to choose diamonds, which made him so excited that he almost cried.

Of course, as the widow of General Xue Yue, Lu Hao awarded Xue Yue the Marquis of Zhongyi, and Mrs. Xue was naturally the Marquis's wife. Together with her daughter Xue Yunxi and the young Marquis Xue Yunjie, she was also qualified to go on stage to select diamonds.

A family of three came hand in hand. Xue Yunxi walked directly in front of Lu Hao and bowed slightly.

"Little girl, thank you Prime Minister for avenging your father!"

Xue Yunxi said loudly.

"Miss Xue, I told you that I would avenge General Xue Yue. I didn't lie to you."

Lu Hao was extremely angry.

"The Prime Minister has kept his word, and our Xue family is deeply grateful!"

Xue Yunxi bowed slightly again.

"I take my son with me, and my daughter thanks the prime minister again!"

Mrs. Xue also came forward with her son.

"Mrs. Xue is too polite, avenging General Xue Yue is the duty of the prime minister."

Lu Hao was now humble.

"Yunjie pays homage to the Prime Minister!"

Although Xue Yunjie is not old, he is still very sensible.

"Little Marquis, after the prime minister ascends the throne and proclaims himself emperor, he will establish the empire's military academy. When the time comes, you can come to the military academy to study."

Lu Hao wanted to train him.

After all, this boy is a loyal minister and worthy of his training.

"Military academy? Are you learning to march and fight?"

Xue Yunjie asked.

"Yes, you are learning about marching, fighting, strategy and tactics. I really want to train you to be a general like your father!"

Lu Hao did not hide his intentions.
