"Brother has got a good treasure now, but even now I still don't understand. What kind of precious medicinal material can be offered at such a high price? If the princess hadn't brought enough silver today, I'm afraid the price would have been even higher. High." Although Gu Qiang has always had no worries about food and clothing, she still has some ideas about silver taels. When her brother called out the price of ten thousand taels, she was shocked enough. She didn't expect that the princess would actually It would be doubled. If Gusu Liang hadn't asked him to directly increase it to 50,000, you wouldn't believe it, so a little thing is worth so much.
Gu Huaian put down the box, "Mr. Gusu, wait a minute, I will send someone to deliver fifty thousand taels of silver notes. Gu took this medicinal material without courtesy." Gu Huaian knew that this thing was very important to Gusu Lianglai. There is no point in saying it at all, so I dare to speak boldly.
Gu Suliang looked at Gu Huai'an and said, "That doesn't matter, this thing is not important to me anyway." But this Princess Si Yin is quite strange. She is obviously Shen Zhongbai's younger sister, how come she has such a businesslike air? It was a fluke that he could help Gu Qiang today. If the princess continued to ask for a price, even he might not be able to get it right.
Shen Zhongbai returned to the palace, and the little eunuch beside him quickly brought up the painting. Shen Zhongbai's expression changed and he took it.
He had just sent someone to get this painting and calligraphy back. He originally thought it was just a coincidence, but he didn't expect that when he actually saw the painting, Shen Zhongbai began to feel something was wrong.
"Is this painting the one Gu Suran put up for bidding just now?" Shen Zhongbai spread the painting on his desk. The painting on the painting is indeed a scene in the paddock. He remembers it very clearly. He often goes there. Although I don’t know if the person in the painting who can’t see clearly is me in the place in the painting, this scene is really familiar to me.
"Eunuch Li, come here and take a look at this painting."
Eunuch Li has been with him since he was a child, and he also followed him when hunting. If it were him, he might still be able to remember who probably painted this painting.
"Your Majesty, isn't it you who is painted in this painting?" Eunuch Li smiled and stepped back.
Shen Zhongbai didn't understand what Eunuch Li meant, "How can you be so sure that the person in this painting is me?"
"Your Majesty, when my servant accompanied you to the hunting ground in the past, you would always go to the woods next to the hunting ground to sit for a while at the end of the hunt. At that time, the servant would go to the emperor during lunch. This picture I see this scene often, so I will naturally feel that the person in the painting is you, the emperor."
"Oh?" Shen Zhongbai originally thought it was a similar scene, but he didn't expect that the person in the painting was actually himself. No wonder when he just took out the painting, he felt a little familiar, until After someone took the picture, he sent someone to buy it back.
"Then who painted this painting, and why is it in Gu Suran's hands?"
After Princess Siyin returned to the palace, she felt a little unwilling. That talent was something she was interested in. However, the person named Gu Suran didn't seem to be such a difficult person to talk to. If they could I can take half of the medicinal powder and give it to him according to the price.
"Jade, pack your things and come out of the palace with me."
Shen Siyin also had a good temper. He packed up the banknotes in his hand in a hurry, only to find that it was not enough for fifty thousand taels. He couldn't go to the emperor to ask for it. If he knew about it, he would have to go find it again. Gu Suran must have blamed herself again. She wanted to go, but she decided to go to Shen Qiangwei.
"Twenty thousand? Yes, yes, but what does the princess want with so many banknotes?" When Shen Siyin just returned to the palace, most of the women in the palace who were about the same as her grandmother did not know her identity. The Nanmai Club was talking behind their backs. It wasn't until someone was punished by Shen Qiangwei that everyone knew Shen Siyin's identity. Shen Siyin really didn't have a good impression of other women in the public. The only one who had a good impression was probably Shen Qiangwei. .
"It's nothing, just lend it to me first, and I'll ask Brother Huang to pay it back to you later. Are you still afraid that I'll run away?" Shen Siyin looked at the person in front of him, patted his chest and promised, " A monk can't escape from the temple if I run away. If I run away, you can ask my brother for the money."
Shen Qiangwei turned around and walked to her cabinet, "What the princess said is obvious. I am just worried about the princess and have no other intentions."
After Shen Simian got the money, he left the palace and had to find Gu Suran as soon as possible. Didn't he say that he didn't understand pharmacology at all? It would be terrible if he just resold the medicine.
Gu Su Ran's name has been known to everyone in Kyoto recently. Shen Siyin had just left the palace and after asking a few people, he found Gu Su Ran's location.
Ever since something like that happened before, Gu Suliang had replaced most of the people in Lingyin Pavilion with his own people. Seeing Shen Siyin's attitude of looking for Gu Suran as soon as he entered the door, the guys from Lingyin Pavilion They were also more careful, "Girl, our second young master is not here right now. Please wait a moment. Our second young master will be back soon."
It was not a busy time, so Gu Suliang stayed upstairs and did not come down. When he heard the voice calling Gu Suran below, he opened the door of his room and walked down.
The cashier in the hall had sharp eyes and pointed in the direction of Shen Siyin with his eyes. Gu Su Liang understood immediately. When Gu Su Ran said that he wanted to share medicinal materials with Princess Si Yin, Shen Zhongbai did not let the princess Accepting it, the princess was still a little unwilling. That's why I came to the door.
"This girl, I don't know where my brother offended the girl, so that she came to his door?"
"No, no, are you Gu Su Ran's brother? We are just friends, I just want to buy something from him." Gu Su Liang smiled at Shen Siyin, and it was not much different from what he expected. It's just that this princess came to their door. For them, they didn't know whether it was a good thing or a bad thing.
Gu Qiang and Gu Huaian walked into the Lingyin Pavilion talking and laughing. After entering the hall, they noticed that the atmosphere was a little different from the past. As expected, Gu Su Liang was quietly making tea on the side, and Shen Siyin was sitting on the side. , seemed to have been waiting for a long time, "Her Royal Highness the Princess is here, what do you want to do?"
Gu Suran hated Shen Zhongbai to the extreme. This Shen Siyin was Shen Zhongbai's sister. She was still not sure what kind of person Shen Siyin was, so naturally she couldn't get too close. But at this time, Shen Siyin was looking for I came to this place probably because of the medicinal materials.
"I brought 50,000 taels of silver notes, can you just give me what you have in your hand?" Shen Siyin stood up and blinked at Gu Qiang. If it were another man, he might still be a little moved. It's a pity that Gu Qiang didn't take this trick and saluted in the direction of Shen Siyin.
"Your Highness, the solution to the matter, I have already said before. If the princess wants this medicinal material, she can share some of it with me, but I will never sell it. I will never sell it. I also said so. It is very clear that as a businessman, if you buy something worth 50,000 yuan, you will never give it away at the original price." Gu Qiang looked at the somewhat unruly princess in front of her. If he really intended to buy this thing, thinking about it now, it would definitely be... I just brought fifty thousand taels.
"You, please don't give me a toast or drink as a penalty. If I really want this thing, I can buy it for free!" Shen Simin also became arrogant. After all, it was something he fell in love with at first sight. , just watching it get into the hands of others, Nanda would be a little unwilling to accept it.
"The princess is the emperor's sister. You can do whatever you want. You don't have to worry about what I think." Gu Qiang doesn't like to deal with unruly people. Even if the princess is young, she can't be so unruly and willful. Even Shen Zhongbai, She also didn't dare to touch the people of the Gusu family easily. This princess would go too far.
"Okay, since you won't give it, I won't be polite. Come here and smash it for me!" Shen Siyin actually didn't want to know what happened to Lingyin Pavilion. After all, he only had two followers with him. She just wanted to scare them. Gusu Liang saw her bluff, put down the tea cup in her hand, and stood up.
"Princess, if you want to cause trouble, please come here fully prepared next time. We are waiting for you at any time." Gu Suliang still had a faint smile on his face, "If you are not ready yet, we will make trouble soon." It’s dinner, let’s come back tomorrow.”
Gusu Liang could see that the princess had no ill intentions and just wanted the medicinal materials, so he was not ready to really fight her, so he just gave up with a few words of ridicule.
"Si Yin, why are you here?"
Gu Qiang originally thought that Gu Suliang would get angry, but she didn't expect that the two people were not tit for tat. The familiar voice behind them sounded again at this moment. Seeing Shen Siyin's attitude softening all of a sudden, Gu Qiang secretly smiled in her heart. It seems that there is something good to watch now.
Shen Zhongbai was originally in the palace, looking at the painting on the desk and talking about it. Thinking about what Eunuch Li just said, the more Ye thought about the moon, he felt uncomfortable, so he packed up and left the palace. Unexpectedly, he Sister, here too.
"The common people bow to the emperor."
As soon as Shen Zhongbai entered the door, he saw Shen Siyin's two entourages unsheathing their swords and facing Gu Su Liang opposite. He understood that his sister must have lost her temper again and came to cause trouble for Gu Su Ran. .
