Chapter 693: Clues

"Over at the inn, there are more than a dozen." Bai Ling added on the side.

When the Nine Princes heard about the number, the hanging ones fell first.

These black pearls are naturally not enough to make medicine for the Queen Mother.

In the Imperial Doctor's pharmacy, one black pearl is initially added every five days, and then one black pearl is added every five days.

As long as the remaining black pearls can be delivered within a month, you can start treating the Queen Mother today.

The royal family of the Western Han Kingdom is naturally also searching for black pearls, but the quantity is small and the quality is not as good as the one in front of them, so they have been delaying the Queen Mother's illness.

"Okay, this king will report to the royal brother and buy the black pearl in your hand at the price of ten thousand taels of silver. The 100,000 taels of silver tickets are deposits. The Nine Princes handed over the ninety thousand taels of silver tickets, and the bronzed skin had a reddish glow that was almost undetectable.

The Nine Princes are the god of war of the Western Han Kingdom, but they are not good at management.

If it weren't for the fact that the Nine Princes had been fond of carving since he was a child, and the auction house didn't dare to accept his commission, the 100,000 taels of silver would not have been able to come out.

Shangguan Yu had heard a little about the Nine Princes, and knew that almost all the output of his property was used to take care of those disabled soldiers and the families of the fallen soldiers, so he had a good impression of him.

"We believe that the Nine Princes will do what they say, the deposit does not have to be delivered, and when all the black pearls are delivered, we can ask the court to settle them together." Shangguan Yu pushed the silver ticket over and said sincerely: "Duan has heard about the deeds of the Nine Princes, and he also sincerely admires the Nine Princes. These silver tickets, there are more people, more than we husband and wife. ”

"I didn't expect Duan Gongzi to be a benevolent person, hahaha!" The Ninth Prince was not polite, and directly put the silver ticket and a few black pearls into his sleeve pocket, "Both, can you take this king to get the black pearl now?" ”

"Please wait a while, my wife has done business with the auction house, and the payment has not yet been settled." Shangguan Yu said.

"Mrs. Ling, it's different, the two are a match made in heaven." The Nine Princes are in a good mood, so naturally they don't mind complimenting a few words.

The three of them exchanged a few more pleasantries, and the atmosphere was good.

After a short time, the steward knocked on the door again, and came to Bai Ling with a silver ticket and a deed.

Because of the relationship between the Nine Princes, the steward used his authority to give Bai Ling the greatest discount.

For auction items, only 10% of the commission will be charged.

Although there were no black pearls in the bag of pearls, they were all accepted for six thousand taels of silver each, which was definitely the highest price.

It's just that he came to the auction house to 'fish', and by the way, hundreds of thousands of taels of silver came in, Bai Ling always smiled, and Shangguan Yu was spoiled.

It made the nine princes, who had never married a princess so far, have the idea of wanting to get married.

But this is just an idea, the Ninth Prince has always hated women for trouble, but he didn't dare to marry one back, and he would cry and wipe his tears at every turn.

"Shangguan, you went to see the Ninth Prince today, but do you think he will help us find a master?" In the dead of night, the husband and wife enter the space to talk, and there is no need to take precautions.

"No, it won't." Shangguan Yu said firmly: "The Nine Princes are human beings, and it is true that he has the blood of a soldier, but he is also a member of the royal family. Even if he didn't agree with the practice of imprisoning Shang Lao, he would not oppose the royal family and let Shang Lao go. ”

"The most important thing is that the Nine Princes have made great achievements, and the Emperor of the Western Han Kingdom will definitely guard against him, maybe the Nine Princes don't know where Shang Lao's location is."

Bai Ling frowned, he searched in Kyoto for a few days, but he didn't find any clues, which was really anxious.

"If the emperor imprisons the master, will he imprison people in the palace?" Bai Ling's eyes widened suddenly, "Black Pearl, this prescription must have been prescribed by the master!" ”

"Are you sure?" Shangguan Yu asked.

"Hmm." Bai Ling nodded heavily, "When the master was in Nanshan Village, he once mentioned a prescription to me, that is, he needed black pearls as a medicine guide. At that time, the master also said that although this prescription is good, it is worth a fortune. There are very few people who can use it, even if they have silver, they can't buy so many black pearls. ”

"Because I couldn't make this prescription, the master has always been very sorry, so I gave the master a bag of black pearls, and told the master that if someone really needs to use this recipe to save people one day, I can provide black pearls."

The more Bai Ling said, the more he felt that this recipe must have been written by Shang Lao.

After all, there are not many people who dare to write such a prescription, and ordinary people will not easily think of using such a large number of black pearls to save people.

"Let's go to the palace." Shangguan Yu said solemnly.

"Well, if the master can prescribe this prescription, it must have been diagnosed and treated by the Queen Mother. If the Empress Dowager of the Western Han Dynasty really got a strange disease, presumably the emperor would not let the master be guarded by the miracle doctor, and he would not be at ease. Bai Ling guessed.

The two came to an agreement that no matter how reliable this guess was, they had to give it a try.

Bai Ling couldn't wait to confirm the authenticity, so he urged the space to go to the direction of the palace.

The layout of the imperial palace of the Western Han Kingdom is roughly similar to that of the Eastern Han Kingdom, so it is not very difficult for Bai Ling to find the Cining Palace where the Queen Mother lives.

However, after looking around Cining Palace for a few laps, Bai Ling almost fled, and there was no trace of Shang Lao.

"Maybe Shang Lao is in the Imperial Palace, not Cining Palace." Seeing that Bai Ling was in a hurry, Shangguan Yu analyzed: "The emperor of the Western Han Dynasty has put Shang Lao under house arrest, and there must be secrets that no one knows, so he should not worry about letting Shang Lao be exposed." ”

"Well, let's keep looking. As long as the master is in the palace, he will definitely be able to find it. Bai Lingdao.

Before there were clues, Shang Lao could not be found, and Bai Ling was not so anxious.

Now that he suspects that Shang Lao is imprisoned in the palace, but he still can't find Shang Lao, Bai Ling is afraid that something will happen to Shang Lao or be sent somewhere else.

The Western Han Kingdom is so big, how difficult is it to find a person without a goal?

Eastern Han Kingdom, Yang Mansion.

Today is the day of the little guy's washing, and naturally some relatives and friends will come to congratulate him.

Regardless of whether everyone sincerely congratulates them or not, there must always be face-saving exchanges.

And those who were still secretly squeezing the Bai family to speak out, after Princess Han came to say hello in person and had a good conversation with the Bai family, no one dared to say a bad word.

"The people in this capital are all turning corners when they speak, and the people who listen are tired and panicked." Taking advantage of the fact that there were few people around him, the Bailiu clan whispered to Princess Han.

"If you don't like it, then you won't associate with them. When you enter Beijing, you don't say that you will go to the palace to live for a few days, and when this is spread, I think I don't want to see you and your father-in-law. I'm alone, and I don't even have anyone to talk to. "Princess Han is in front of the Bailiu clan, naturally she will not hold the princess's shelf, and she can't see that she is a princess at all.

"When the grass is out of confinement, I will go to your place for a few days. When I go back to the village, everyone can boast that I have lived in the palace. Bai Liu smiled and agreed.

On the Yang family's side, there is only Mrs. Yang's in-laws who are a generation apart, and the Bailiu family is not without a person who can speak.

It's just that Baicao is still in confinement, and Bailiu is afraid that his daughter will be wronged in confinement, so he is willing to leave.

"That's decided, as soon as the grass comes out of confinement, I will come directly to you to stay, but don't find any more reasons to push me." Princess Han said loudly.

Princess Han was sincerely invited, but this sentence was also said to others.

It is extremely important for a woman to be confined, in case there is another person who does not open her eyes, and if she wants to take this opportunity to give Yang Fansai people, it also depends on her Princess Han is agree.

Baicao was pregnant before, and Mrs. Yang was afraid that the child would make a mistake, so she stopped everything.

But now in the confinement, Yang Fan is still in the capital, and Baicao can't have sex with Yang Fan, Princess Han is really afraid that Mrs. Yang can't think about it, so she has to give Yang Fan a concubine.

If Yang Fan married someone else, Princess Han didn't worry about it, but it was her daughter-in-law's own sister, in order to keep her daughter-in-law from being idle, she put her mind on having an heir with Shangguan Yu earlier, and Princess Han also had to protect the white grass a little.
