Then the crown prince of Song Dynasty went into Zuixian Tower by himself and let everyone know that he was awake, so that Li Jiming could escape, so that the Duke of Song Dynasty would not let Li Jiming go if they got the prescription.
When dealing with such villains, you can only proceed with caution.
After chewing one fruit, Su Tang passed the time by reading a book. After finishing one book, he took another half.
Outside, the maid came in and said, "Prince Princess, it's time for lunch. Can you bring the food now?"
Su Tang said, "Wait a little longer."
Knowing that she was impatient, Xie Boting would definitely come back to have lunch with her.
As soon as he finished speaking, Banxia heard familiar footsteps, "The prince is back."
Su Tang looked up and saw Xie Boting walking in through the bead curtain. Even after watching it for several months, she could not get tired of seeing this face.
The maid retreated, and Su Tang asked Xie Boting, "Is the matter finished?"
Xie Boting pinched Su Tang's nose and said, "Isn't it all under your control?"
Su Tang stretched out his hand and said, "Where's the medical fee?"
Xie Boting took out a stack of banknotes from his arms and put them in Su Tang's hand.
Su Tang was shocked by the thickness of the banknote. She counted it once, then counted it again, and then looked up at Xie Boting, "One hundred thousand taels?"
"Yeah," Xie Boting nodded lightly.
Su Tang smiled and said, "I thought fifty thousand taels was enough, but I didn't expect you to ask for so much more for me."
Xie Boting, "..."
Why did he ask for more for her?
Seeing Su Tang happily counting the banknotes, Xie Boting asked her, "How much do you think it will cost to build a thousand-man cavalry?"
"Three to fifty thousand taels," Su Tang said.
"..."
Xie Baiting helped his forehead.
Su Tang looked at her, "Isn't it enough?"
Xie Boting said, "The war horses used by the iron cavalry are more expensive than ordinary horses. One horse costs sixty or seventy taels. Adding losses, food and grass, etc., one hundred thousand two is enough to cover the expenses of one thousand iron cavalry for three years."
Su Tang was embarrassed.
She knew that the iron cavalry cost a lot, but she didn't expect it to be so expensive. Fortunately, she didn't directly say fifty thousand taels, otherwise she would only have enough to form an iron cavalry of 500 people.
Su Tang handed the banknote to Xie Boting.
Xie Boting asked, "What can you do for me?"
"Form the Iron Cavalry," Su Tang blurted out.
Xie Boting raised his hand to his forehead. He knew that the money was cheap and he didn't feel bad about spending it, but his wife took it for granted. "If you form an iron cavalry without the permission of the emperor, you should suspect that I, the Prince of Jingnan, have evil intentions."
Already."
"Besides, my father will not ask for your money."
What a hassle.
Su Tang said, "Let's talk about it later."
Su Tang handed the banknote to Banxia and asked Banxia to take it and put it away.
The maid brought the food into the house, and Su Tang and Xie Boting sat down to eat.
While eating the food, Su Tang asked Xie Boting, "I haven't bothered to make ice in the past two days. I don't know how Prince Xin'an and the others are doing?"
Xie Boting was about to tell Su Tang about this when he said, "They did a good job. On my way back, I happened to see them eagerly dragging the ice cubes they made into the palace to show off to the emperor."
"They also asked me to bring you a message, the Emperor's reward, and they will deliver it to you shortly." This chapter has been completed!
