Chapter 157 It's Not Enough
The content of the letter left by the old Taoist Du'an to Su Shixia is actually very simple.

In addition to writing a few nonsense words about him going to work to let Su Shixia not think about him too much, it then succinctly stated the deal between him and Qin Yi.

Qin Yi gave the old Taoist priest 3000 taels of silver, and promised that as long as the matter is done, he can give Su Shixia the token that can call the guards around him, and even the Pingxi Palace will be under Su Shixia's management in the future .

And his request is - find a way to cut off the Qin family's surveillance of him, and transfer him to the renovated Pingxi Palace when the time is right.

Su Shixia really didn't want to go back to the Qin family. She was worried about how to lure the Qin family out so that she could take the opportunity to accomplish her goal.

Who knew that she hadn't figured out how to act yet, the Qin family formed a group and came to her door on their own initiative.

She will not miss such a good opportunity.

Before coming to Prince Pingxi's mansion, she asked Suqiu to go to Qin's house to report to Xun Qing and the others, and that's how the good show of "mantis catching cicada and oriole behind" happened just now.

Xun Qing and Shi Jun are also well aware of Qin Yi's deal with the old Taoist priest.

Seeing that Su Shixia took the initiative to ask for a reward, Shi Jun immediately stepped forward and handed a token to Su Shixia respectfully.

Su Shixia took the token in his hand and carefully looked at it curiously.

Shi Jun's words were originally very arrogant, but his eyes casually swept over Mr. Mo beside Su Shixia, his expression froze slightly, and he added another sentence uncomfortably.

"It's not just a problem, it's a big problem."

Su Shixia sneered: "I'm also really curious, what heinous thing did Qin Yi do, what kind of difficult person did he provoke, and he insisted on killing him so lingeringly."

Su Shixia stared at the topographic map with lowered eyes, because when she talked about business, her expression became serious.

She raised her eyebrows slightly, and carefully stroked the token with her fingertips, and immediately realized that those gorgeous patterns were just deceptive appearances.

Su Shixia reminded again.

"The subordinates are the best among them, but other people's skills are not much worse than the subordinates. Compared with ordinary guards, they are all elites who can fight one against five."

"Princess, this is the token that can call the guards around the prince."

"Since this is my territory from now on, I naturally have to step on the ground first."

"Back to the princess, in Shangjing City, there are 300 personal guards who can cooperate at any time, and another 1000 people are outside the city. If there is an emergency, as long as a signal is sent, they can immediately enter the city to respond."

Seeing that it was just an ordinary copper-cast waist card, one side was engraved with the word "Yi", and the other side was only carved with some gorgeous and complicated patterns, at first glance, there was nothing special about it.

After Shi Jun said those words, he lowered his head. Su Shixia couldn't see the expression on his face clearly, but felt that he was embarrassed, so he smiled and comforted him.

"Cough, cough, cough!"

After confirming that the token was genuine, Su Shixia put the token into the space contentedly.

Su Shixia said in a deep voice: "And that magic circle can kill people."

Shi Jun also gave her an answer at this time.

Shi Jun said: "If you can use us anywhere in the future, as long as someone brings this token, the subordinates will bring someone to come immediately!"

"That's right, this palace has also been tampered with."

Under the pattern, there are actually engraved inscriptions. Obviously, those inscriptions are the key to verify the authenticity of the token.

"I've told you several times, you should call me master."

"The reason why I specially asked the Qin family to come here today is firstly to test their attitude, and secondly because your master promised before that as long as I do what he asked, the Pingxi Palace will belong to me in the future. Tube."

"Ah."

Su Shixia glanced at them suspiciously, "What do you mean by this reaction? I'll give him ten taels of silver a month, isn't that too little?"

"How many people are there in Qin Yi's personal guard?"

Su Shixia interrupted them expressionlessly.

"That...Princess, my subordinates have a minimum of 50 taels of silver per month, and there will be additional money if there are missions and meritorious service."

Shi Jun nodded to indicate that he knew all of this. Seeing that Su Shixia was still frowning and staring at the topographic map of the palace, he felt a chill in his heart, and asked urgently in disbelief: "Princess, why did you suddenly mention this? Could it be that this new palace also……"

"I know that."

"Of course, the ordinary guards mentioned by this subordinate refer to those guards from other palaces. Those people...including subordinates, our skills are completely incomparable to the guard next to you. We are even worse. Far."

Mr. Mo bent his lips slightly, "Ten taels of silver per month is indeed a big price."

She really didn't want to continue talking about the embarrassing topic of monthly money, so she directly opened the topographic map of the palace, and asked Shi Jun and Xun Qing to look at it, so that they could turn their attention to the map.

"That's your business."

Su Shixia snorted, and then asked again, "Then how are their skills? How are they better than you?"

Shi Jun shuddered violently when he thought of the scene when Su Shixia asked him to dig up the bones in the middle of the night, and then nodded vigorously, "I remember."

Xun Qing also coughed lightly, "The monthly money of my subordinates is basically used to deduct some rare medicinal materials, but if you really count it carefully, every month..."

Su Shixia looked up at Shi Jun.

Shi Jun didn't dare to look at Su Shixia, he just lowered his head and spoke in embarrassment.

"Qin Yi is a prince no matter what. For the sake of his face, he can't afford to give you less monthly money. This is a premium due to his status! I am a woman, and it is not as easy to make money as he is. Don't use me to fight He compares."

Mr. Mo said with a half smile but not a smile: "The princess is the most generous, I know that."

Su Shixia said, then turned to look at Mr. Mo and emphasized, "compared with ordinary people, it is very conscientious to give you ten taels a month, and it is a sky-high price!"

Mr. Mo at the side sensitively sensed that something was wrong with her tone, so he couldn't help raising his eyebrows and asked, "You don't seem very happy, what's wrong? Is there something wrong with this house?"

"Do you still remember the things I asked you to dig out in the Zhongyonghou Mansion?"

"He's the guard I hired with a lot of money, so his strength is naturally not bad, otherwise I wouldn't want to spend so much money on him."

"This number... is neither too many nor too few."

As soon as Mr. Mo said this, both Shi Jun and Xun Qing coughed violently as if they were suddenly choked.

"Although I didn't make it clear to you at the time, didn't my brother take the initiative to help break the formation before? You should all know that the bones dug out are actually a foundation of the formation."

"really."

Su Shixia frowned and said: "It's also strange. The capital city is said to be big or small, but I have encountered three places like this magic circle. This is really..."

Su Shixia had just finished speaking halfway, but her words froze suddenly.

"Pingxi Prince's Mansion, Zhongyonghou's Mansion, Yuwang's Mansion, and even... Changyihou's Mansion... everywhere? No, no, not enough!"

Su Shixia murmured a few times, her eyes suddenly became fierce, and she suddenly raised her eyes to look at Shi Jun, "Do you have a topographic map of the entire capital in your hand?"
