Chapter 341
"Lord Li, please don't stand on ceremony with this old servant. The Prince instructed me to take good care of you," Liu Ming said with a smile.
However, at this moment, Liu Ming thought that Li Tianyou had gone to help rescue his young master.
"Where is your prince?" Li Tianyou asked, frowning.
He didn't see Xu Heming today.
"Lord Li, please don't be offended. The Prince left the city early this morning. Perhaps the Emperor has some important business to attend to," Liu Ming quickly explained with a smile.
"Oh dear, this is bad!" Li Tianyou then realized that he had missed the morning court session.
As he spoke, he was about to stand up. He had to go to the morning court session; otherwise, the emperor might misunderstand him and think he was being disrespectful.
"Father, what are you doing?" Li Zhiwei quickly stepped forward to help Li Tianyou, who was trying to put on his shoes.
"Oh dear, I have to go to the morning court. I didn't ask the Emperor for leave yesterday. What if the Emperor blames me?" Li Tianyou didn't care about the salary, but he was afraid that the Emperor would think that his behavior was wrong and punish him. If this implicated his wife and daughter, that would not be good.
"Lord Li, rest assured, Your Highness, I have already consulted with the Emperor on your behalf. The Emperor said that you should rest well before attending the morning court session," Liu Ming quickly said.
"Really?" Li Tianyou was still somewhat skeptical. Wasn't it said that Xu Heming had left the city early in the morning?
How can I ask the Emperor for leave now?
“It’s true, my lord went to the palace last night and spoke to the Emperor about it,” Liu Ming added.
"Father, now that the Prince has made arrangements for this matter, you should rest well." Li Zhiwei helped Li Tianyou sit down first.
Seeing that Li Tianyou was otherwise unharmed except for his pale complexion, I breathed a sigh of relief.
"I'm fine." Li Tianyou felt that he was also suffering in silence.
But he really was fine.
He was just a little hungry, but after eating that millet porridge, he felt much better.
"You still say you're fine? Do you know how scared you were of your daughter?" Li Zhiwei looked at her father, her voice full of dependence.
"It's my fault, Father." Li Tianyou felt bad seeing his daughter like this.
Fortunately, he was alright today; otherwise, he wouldn't know how to explain it to his wife and daughter.
Lanhuai Prince's Mansion
"Your Highness, we've already investigated. The Prince went to the Cheng family yesterday, but his expression has been rather unpleasant ever since he left," Fangcao said to Huo Yunzhi.
“Yesterday, the prince clearly went out to secure Qinlou for me. Judging from his demeanor yesterday, it seems he didn’t manage to buy Qinlou back.” Huo Yunzhi said casually while trimming the green plants beside her.
"Consort, is Qin Lou really that necessary?" Fangcao asked, somewhat puzzled. In her opinion, Qin Lou was nothing more than a run-down restaurant.
"What do you know? I have my reasons for wanting that brothel. Besides, a small brothel is nothing to Your Highness." Huo Yunzhi felt that the Cheng family must have said something else to displease the Prince.
"In that case, why don't you wait until the Prince awards the land deed for the Qin Tower to you, Consort?" Fangcao asked, puzzled.
"What do you know?" Huo Yunzhi naturally had enough money to buy that brothel, but her ability to buy it and the fact that Prince Lan Huai gave it to her were two different things.
Besides, why would she insist on spending her own money to buy that restaurant?
Wouldn't it be better to have Prince Lan Huai spend his money to buy her a restaurant?
However, it seems that Lan Huaiwang is not so great after all, as he cannot even conquer Qinlou.
