After about an hour, 218 returned to Lihua Tower.
[Mr. Nianchen, I've already found out that the boss behind this Lihua Tower is the eldest prince.]
[Also, that old procuress just now told the Crown Prince how handsome and talented Nian Chenjun was. They were also plotting to make you their mistress and give you to someone else.]
218 told Gu Nianchen everything he had heard.
This is the situation that Gu Nianchen wants to see, but who to give it to is a problem.
【Have you said who to send it to? 】
Gu Nianchen looked at 218 and asked, and the latter shook his head.
[They directly said they gave it to him. I don't know if it was Luo Yujun. Luo Yujun was not mentioned in their conversation.]
[Okay, go back to the Sea of Consciousness space first.]
[Okay, Nian Chenjun. 】
Gu Nianchen thought for a moment. Although 218 did not hear them talking about Bai Luoyu, according to the past story line, Bai Luoyu was the most likely person.
Of course, whether it is true or not doesn’t affect Gu Nianchen’s actions much. He will definitely go to Bai Luoyu to protect him.
In the original storyline, Bai Luoyu has never been married.
Girls from well-matched families were unwilling to marry Bai Luoyu, even though his father was Prince Bai. However, he was an uneducated and incapable prince.
There were also some who had ulterior motives, and the old prince didn't like them either. Plus, Bai Luoyu himself didn't want to get married, so this saved him a lot of trouble.
He glanced outside and saw that it was not yet dark. There was still some time before the store opened in the evening. Gu Nianchen had nothing to do, so he simply went back to bed and fell asleep.
Gu Nianchen didn't wake up until the servant came to ask him to get up and dress up, and then he woke up in a daze.
The servant entered the room and said mysteriously to Gu Nianchen:
"Get up quickly and dress up, we have a distinguished guest."
"Who is it?"
Gu Nianchen was puzzled. At this time... the distinguished guest... could it be the eldest prince?
"How would I know? If I tell you to go, then go quickly. This distinguished guest is someone that even Mama Li can't afford to offend. If you go late, you might not only get whipped twice, but you might even lose your head."
Although the servant did not know the specific identity of the visitor, from the room he stayed in and the fact that Li's mother was personally serving him, he knew who the mysterious boss behind the scenes was, a big shot in Yangcheng.
"Oh, okay, thank you."
Gu Nianchen thanked him and sat up, already 90% certain that it was the eldest prince.
He didn't expect that the eldest prince was so anxious. Logically, he should have been allowed to recuperate before offering himself.
After washing and tidying himself up, Gu Nianchen followed the servant waiting at the door upstairs.
The servant led him all the way to a separate attic on the fifth floor.
This location is very hidden. According to the layout, the attic cannot be seen from the outside unless you come in from the inside through the darkroom or go to the roof.
But there were people secretly guarding places like this everywhere, and we were discovered before we even got there.
"Mother Li, the person is here."
The servant stood at the door and said.
"Come in."
Mother Li's voice came from inside, and the servant nodded to Gu Nianchen and left.
Gu Nianchen pushed the door open and walked in.
As soon as he entered, there was a screen, and Gu Nianchen couldn't see the people inside.
Only vague human figures can be seen.
"What's your name?"
When that person spoke, it was obvious that he was lowering his voice, changing his original tone.
Gu Nianchen bowed and replied, "Scholar Gu Nianchen."
"Well, would you like to work for me?"
Gu Nianchen paused and pretended to be confused.
"I'm asking you a question, why don't you answer it quickly?"
When Mother Li saw that Gu Nianchen didn't respond, she became anxious and started to urge him.
"I don't know what I need to do next?"
"You are so bold! I'm giving you face by asking you. You also ask me what to do. I'll do whatever you're told to do."
Seeing that Gu Nianchen dared to ask back, Mother Li scolded him.
Gu Nianchen quickly bowed his head respectfully.
"Well, it's okay to ask. Prince Bai from the palace will be here tonight, and I will recommend you to him. All you have to do is please Prince Bai. As for what I need you to do in the future, I will let you know."
After the man finished speaking, he paused, as if waiting for Gu Nianchen's reply.
Gu Nianchen hesitated to speak, and the man laughed:
"I forgot to mention that if this works out, everything Prince Bai gives you will be yours alone, and Lihualou will also give you one thousand taels of silver every month."
Hearing about the benefits of the supplement, Gu Nianchen bowed and thanked him:
"I will follow your orders, sir."
"Hahaha, okay, I like people who love money. Go back and behave well tonight. I wish you success."
"Yes, I'll take my leave."
Gu Nianchen retreated.
It was confirmed at once that Bai Luoyu would come in the evening, so all he had to do was be chosen by Bai Luoyu from the crowd.
As for being the eldest prince's insider, it is more to his liking. If he wants to deal with Bai Luoyu, he will know it in advance, so that he can take better precautions.
After returning to the room, Gu Nianchen did not continue lying down, but stood in front of the desk to practice calligraphy.
Gradually the room darkened, the candles outside were lit, and the entire Lihua Building was illuminated.
The guests had not arrived yet, so Gu Nianchen walked out. With the candlelight turned on, the Lihua Tower looked even more luxurious.
Everywhere there are red-based, gold-painted carved beams and painted buildings, and the tulle sways gently, resembling a dancing girl.
"Sir, a distinguished guest will be arriving soon. Madam Li wants you to prepare well."
A servant came running over to remind Gu Nianchen.
