Thinking of this, it seemed that Gu Zhihua had finally calmed down, and the frustration of being hit by Gu Yan and Shen Zhongbai had been reduced a lot, and he turned around and left.

Gu Yan turned her head, Shen Qianshan was sitting in the pavilion with something in her hand, looking at the lotus pond in front of her, as if she was feeding the fish.

walked over to greet Shen Qianshan, he put down the things in his hand, looked at Gu Yan for a long time, and finally said, "You and I don't have to be so polite. ”

Then he pointed to the stone stool opposite, Gu Yan was stunned for a moment, so she had to sit down.

"Since the prince is here today, it just so happens that I need the prince's help with something, can you ......" Gu Yan said while looking at Shen Qianshan expectantly, the latter's eyes were originally looking around, as if she was enjoying the scenery of this mansion, she originally wanted Shen Qianshan to ask what was the matter, but she didn't expect Shen Qianshan to nod directly and said, "Okay." ”

"The courtier hasn't said anything yet, and the prince agreed?" Gu Yan asked in surprise.

Shen Qianshan turned his head and met Gu Yan's eyes, and said very affectionately: "As long as you ask for it, it's fine." ”

Gu Yan didn't take Shen Qianshan's words to heart, and his reaction was always a little strange recently, as if he was hinting at her.

In the evening, Shen Qianshan and Gu Yan both changed into black clothes, one person and one horse towards the Suxin Hall with Suxin Grass, this palace is the same as Shen Qianshan's Xiaoyao Palace, both in the deep mountains.

There are often such palaces in the deep mountains of the capital, which are generally used as a place for the cultivation of the prince, and the emperor or the imperial concubine will come over during the summer vacation, but there are also many palaces that have their own housekeeping skills.

Gu Yan didn't know these things before, but Shen Qianshan talked to her along the way.

In the evening, the horses of the two people were tied to the edge of the tree under the mountain, Shen Qianshan raised his head and moved his chin, and then said lightly: "Follow this road to the Suxin Palace, and the Suxin Grass you are looking for is over there." ”

Gu Yan stretched out her hand and knocked on her leg, even feeling as if this leg was not her own, the road was far away, and she was able to persevere, which made her feel a little surprised.

The road to the mountain was winding, I didn't know what the smell of flowers was around, it was very fragrant and light, and it smelled very comfortable, Shen Qianshan walked beside Gu Yan, for fear that she would fall down the mountain because of fatigue.

It was already getting dark, the blackness was spreading, and the fog was rising at a speed that could be seen by the naked eye, and finally the whole mountain was enveloped.

There was the chirping of small insects, and it seemed that the surroundings were more quiet. Shen Qianshan turned his head and asked softly, "How do you know that the Soul Grass can cure the plague?" ”

Gu Yan was probably tired from walking, sat on the stone on the side, and said casually: "If that Suxin Grass can't detoxify, the people of Suxin Hall won't be so precious." ”

This sounds like answering the question, but Shen Qianshan doesn't care so much anyway, no matter what the method is now, whether it is useful or not, he has to try it, I don't know which decision can change the current situation, this is also why Shen Qianshan followed immediately after hearing Gu Yan's proposal.

Although he was nervous about Gu Yan in his heart, Shen Qianshan was no less worried about this country than Gu Yan.

After walking for a while, the road finally widened, and then on the top of the hill not far away was a black building, which was so grand that it lurked like a wild beast in the quiet of the night, with its mouth wide open. Waiting for the prey to fall into the net.

Gu Yan stood at the door and found that the door was closed, and since she had already walked here, no matter what the situation was inside, she had to walk in hard.

Shen Qianshan seemed to sense Gu Yan's nervousness, so he stretched out his hand and motioned for her to put her hand up, but he didn't expect that after she just glanced at it, she walked in first.

The cyan gate is very solemn, at this time because it is already dark, after entering, it is a long corridor paved with stones, the buildings on both sides are very stylish, at the end of the stone road, is a large hall, Gu Yan didn't care about the strange eyes of the people around her, and walked to the main hall with Shen Qianshan.

On the chair in the middle of the main hall, there was a middle-aged man, who was wearing cyan clothes, which were very similar to the clothes of other people in this hall, and it should be the uniform clothing of this Suxin Palace.

Standing in this hall, the surrounding lights flickered, stretching Gu Yan's shadow very long. The hall is very empty, surrounded by tables and chairs, at a glance you know that it is for guests, the man is sitting there, playing with a bead in his hand, because of a long time of playing, the bead shines with a different light, in this somewhat dark hall, showing a different light, people can't take their eyes off.

The man slowly raised his head, squinted his eyes, and glanced around Gu Yan and Shen Qianshan, this is a man about forty years old, his appearance is not outstanding, and he does not even have the domineering and aura that he should have when sitting in that position.

When Gu Yan met that man's eyes, she already knew the man's personality in her heart.

The man's age was there, and he didn't look very reliable. Looking at people's eyes is very casual, it seems to be a little arrogant, if this man is the master of this Suxin Palace, it is basically a little difficult to get Suxin Grass today.

The man withdrew his eyes, then played with his beads again, and said casually, "What is the matter with the two of you coming to my Suxin Palace?" ”

In fact, the man's words are very problematic, people who can come to the Suxin Palace, for the sake of its Suxin Palace's several herbs, no matter what kind of palace it is, there is a trump card in the hand, in order to have a place in this capital, it just so happens that the Suxin Palace is such a palace, among which there are a few herbs that can be said to be a panacea, many diseases are added to the pills with these herbs, and there is no problem with any disease.

Of course, he only has the most number in his heart, there are many people who come to this Suxin Palace, and men are no longer strange, whether it is the royal family or the common people, or businessmen, there are many people who want herbal medicine, and here, there is no need to give face.

Shen Qianshan said to the man: "It's indeed a bit presumptuous to come this time, but because there is a plague in the capital, I heard that the Suxin grass in the palace has the effect of relieving the plague, so I ......."

Before Shen Qianshan's words were finished, the man sneered, put the beads in his hand on the table, looked up at the ceiling helplessly, and said, "The people who come to my Suxin Hall want these herbs, if they are given, won't everyone come and ask for them?" If we don't give it, it seems that our Suxin Temple doesn't know how to save people at all, so in fact, it is very difficult for us to do it. ”

After speaking, he turned his head to look at Shen Qianshan, as if he was deliberately mentioning him.

How could Shen Qianshan not know what this meant? So he said to the man, "What do you want?" ”

The man found that Shen Qianshan was not a fool, among the people who came before, there were too few and too few of his hints to understand him, and even if someone understood the hint, they could not meet their own requirements.

"What can you give me?" The man asked rhetorically.

Shen Qianshan stood there quietly looking at the man, when he met the man's eyes, he was very quiet, there was no flinch in it, his financial resources in the capital were okay, and his ability was naturally there, as long as this man's requirements were not too excessive, he could give it a try.

"If your request is worthy of the Herb of Soul, I can grant you." Shen Qianshan said.

It was useless to always hesitate here, so Shen Qianshan decided to take the initiative and ask what this man meant.

As soon as the man heard Shen Qianshan's words, he knew that this person who came was not a simple small character, since he wanted to relieve the plague, then he must be a royal person.

It's better to take this opportunity to extort a good sum of money, so that the brothers of Su Xindian can live a good life.

The man made up his mind, and his face suddenly changed to a face, and he said to Shen Qianshan: "We don't want much, how about 100,000 taels of silver?" ”

This is really a lion's mouth, this kind of shameless words This hall master is embarrassed to say it, so that Shen Qianshan is embarrassed, even if he is embarrassed to ask for it, Shen Qianshan is embarrassed to give it.

Of course, 100,000 taels of silver was nothing to Shen Qianshan, but he had to ensure that this hall master could really give him the Soul Grass, not something else.

"If you can give me enough healing herbs, I can think about it." Shen Qianshan said slowly, he raised his eyes and saw that it was the hall master, and the man's expression did not look very good.

There seems to be some conspiracy in it.

Sure enough, the man smiled and said, "I can't give you the Soul Grass, you need to get it yourself, it grows in the mountain behind us, the road is winding and steep, and there are poisonous insects and beasts on the mountain, but it is not easy to get it." ”

Is this for Shen Qianshan to take Gu Yan to get it by himself? How many of what the hall master said were true, and he suddenly had a feeling that he had been deceived.

Turning her head to look at Gu Yan, at this time she was the only one who decided whether to continue or go back.

Gu Yan looked coldly at the lord of the upper hall and asked indifferently: "You are the talker, if we get the Wishing Grass, will it be ours?" ”

The hall master nodded: "Of course, as long as you give me 100,000 taels of silver." ”

Gu Yan didn't have so much money anyway, but what the hall master meant was that after they paid the money, they had to go up the mountain to collect medicine by themselves, which was completely embarrassing them, in fact, the original intention of the hall master was not to give medicine at all, and he was deliberately making it difficult, and anyone could see this kind of little trick.

Silent, Gu Yan frowned and nodded, and said to the hall master, "Lead the way." ”

The hall master didn't expect this girl to agree, in fact, to be honest, this was originally a fire pit, if they came out alive, they must have to take the silver, if they died in it, then it had nothing to do with the Suxin Palace.

After all, the right to choose is theirs.
