Song Shuwan was speechless: "It's not that they can't be impressed, but these medicinal materials don't have much effect on them."
With that said, Song Shuwan explained the difficulties faced by the people of Ningyuan City. She had some opinions about Bai Chu, but those opinions were not to the point where she didn't even want to answer the questions.
Bai Chu frowned even more when he learned that this place was besieged: "Can't Pei Huan solve this problem?"
Song Shuwan said softly: "It should be able to be solved, but the prince has some arrangements, so I delayed it."
Hearing this, Bai Chu didn't say anything, just picked up the teacup at hand and sipped the tea.
After a while, Song Shuwan proposed to leave: "I still have some things to deal with, so I won't delay here."
Bai Chu nodded, hesitation flashing across his face: "Wan'er, can you..."
"Can it be anything?"
"Can you ask uncle to send a few people to follow you?"
When their eyes met, Bai Chu opened his mouth and sighed: "If you don't want to, my uncle won't force you."
Song Shuwan pursed her lips, and after a while she finally rejected Bai Chu: "I already have people arranged by the prince, so I won't bother my uncle."
Hearing this, Bai Chu nodded: "I understand."
After leaving, Song Shuwan couldn't help but look back again, her thoughts turning around, but she didn't say anything.
Baicao tilted her head slightly and asked in a low voice: "The Crown Princess is a little reluctant to leave?"
Song Shuwan looked over in surprise: "Don't give up? How did you see that I don't want to give up?"
"If the Crown Princess is willing to give up, why would she look back?"
Song Shuwan was silent and sighed after a long time.
"Just think that I'm reluctant to give up and go to Xuanyu Pavilion."
"yes."
Half an hour later, a carriage stopped in front of the Xuanyu Pavilion. Song Shuwan put her feet on the ground and looked up at the pavilion in front of her. A slight surprise flashed on her face. She thought that the Xuanyu Pavilion would be a very luxurious place, but she didn't.
Thinking that the Xuanyu Pavilion was dusty and only had one floor, you could clearly see the layout inside just by standing at the door.
What is Feiyuan's purpose in asking her to come here?
While Song Shuwan was hesitating, a waiter walked out and said hello with a smile.
"Is this lady coming to Xuanyu Pavilion for dinner?"
Song Shuwan came back to her senses and shook her head gently: "I'm here to resolve the doubts in my heart."
The waiter smiled: "But Miss Feiyuan asked Madam to come?"
Song Shuwan was not surprised that Fei Yuan's name came out of the waiter's mouth: "Yes, she said, I can solve the doubts in my heart when I get here."
The clerk turned sideways: "I don't know if Madam's doubts can be answered, but Miss Feiyuan said that there must be Madam's answer here. Please follow me."
Song Shuwan followed the waiter into the Xuanyu Pavilion. After walking dozens of steps inside, the waiter pushed open a wall. Behind the wall was a narrow path, dark and deep.
Unexpectedly, there is another mystery in Xuanyu Pavilion.
Song Shuwan paused, turned her head and asked, "Where does this road lead?"
"The real Xuanyu Pavilion."
Just six words made Song Shuwan's heart arouse. Looking at the entrance that was so close, she hesitated between entering or not.
At this moment, a male voice came from behind.
"Since Madam is here, why are you standing at the door?"
Song Shuwan came back to her senses and caught a glimpse of the man who appeared. Her eyes widened instantly: "Wen..."
Before she could say the word "Yixiu", her words were interrupted.
Wen Yixiu smiled and greeted: "Madam, long time no see."
Song Shuwan was silent, and after a few moments she coughed lightly: "It's been a long time indeed. I wonder how the young master is doing lately?"
"Thank you for your worries, madam. Everything is fine."
Song Shuwan twitched her lips: "That's good."
The two chatted and acted as if they were old friends reunited after a long separation.
The waiter's eyes wandered, and after a subtle pause, he led the two of them into the path at the same time. After walking for about a stick of incense, the front suddenly became brighter, and then a courtyard appeared.
The next moment, the waiter saluted the two of them: "The younger one has brought you two here. You can go the rest of the way by yourself until you reach the end."
Song Shuwan glanced at him, thanked him, and left first.
Wen Yixiu paused on the spot, with a twinkle in his eyes. After a moment, he turned around and left Xuanyu Pavilion directly.
On the other side, Song Shuwan walked to the end mentioned by the waiter and found that it was a small room with only enough room for a table and two chairs, and an old man was already sitting on one of the chairs.
When Song Shuwan was looking at the old man, the old man said: "Madam, please sit down."
Song Shuwan pursed her lips and walked slowly to sit opposite the old man: "The old man should know why I am here today, right?"
The old man nodded: "I know that here is the answer Madam wants, but before that, I need Madam to come up with something in exchange."
While talking, the old man put an envelope on the table.
Song Shuwan's gaze moved downward slightly, and then she raised her eyes again: "What does the old man want from me in exchange?"
"Is Prince Pei's leg really cured?"
Song Shuwan was stunned. Can this be regarded as a condition of exchange?
She frowned, thought for a moment and then said: "Many people in Ningyuan City already know about Prince Pei's leg."
The old man shook his head: "The news about Ning Yuancheng belongs to Ning Yuancheng. Those are rumors. What I, Xuanyu Pavilion, want are solid facts."
I see.
Song Shuwan lowered her eyes and was about to answer when a faint sound came.
"I am here myself, wouldn't it be better to ask me directly?"
There was no emotion in his cold voice. The moment he finished speaking, Pei Huan appeared behind Song Shuwan, and with him was Wen Yixiu.
Song Shuwan turned around, glanced across the two of them, and stood up slowly: "Why is the Crown Prince here?"
Pei Huan said calmly: "If I didn't come, you might not be able to get out of the Xuanyu Pavilion today, right? Mr. Qi?"
The old man behind the table smiled: "Prince Pei is joking, my Xuanyu Pavilion is open for business, how can I leave people behind?"
Pei Huan sneered: "Everyone who knows what is going on in Xuanyu Pavilion knows. There is no need to pretend to be in front of me. Just take out the things. I don't want to waste time here. You'd better not let me waste time."
The surroundings fell into silence, and Mr. Qi's expression changed back and forth.
After a while, he said with a smile: "Prince Pei has spoken, and we are bound to listen. Come and get the tiger talisman."
Tiger charm?
Song Shuwan's forehead jumped when she saw a waiter running out and handing Pei Huan a box.
Pei Huan didn't take it in his hand, but handed it to Wen Yixiu.
"As for the envelope, please give it to me, Mr. Qi."
Mr. Qi's face instantly distorted. He pressed the button several times to refuse, and finally squeezed out the word "ok" from between his teeth.
Half an hour later, Song Shuwan followed Pei Huan back to the inn. As soon as he entered the house, Pei Huan asked, "Why are you going to Xuanyu Pavilion?"
