Chapter 196 A Visit to Express Gratitude



Looking around, Li Chang'an didn't see that familiar figure, so he randomly asked one of the shop assistants.

I found out that the guy was on the second floor.

So the two of them went up to the second floor together, and then, as the shop assistant had told them, they came to a room that had previously been used for storing goods.

The room has changed dramatically. Not only is there a plaque hanging outside with the three gilded characters "Spring Breeze Pavilion" on it, but it also has a hidden world inside.

Compared to the outside, the furnishings inside are even better.

Looking at the room full of flowering vines and the wafting fragrance, Li Chang'an couldn't help but feel annoyed.

Even more outrageous, there was a beautiful woman sitting next to him playing the piano.

I am truly convinced of that person's character.

At this moment, Tao Yaojun was sitting cross-legged on the wooden couch, with a chessboard in front of her.

The person was still dressed in light pink clothes, with her hair loosely tied up with a white jade hairpin, broad shoulders, narrow waist, and a face like a peach blossom.

However, he was frowning slightly, looking thoughtful, as if he was troubled by some problem.

Opposite Tao Yaojun sat a young man in green robes, wearing a jeweled crown, with a smile in his eyes and a smug look on his face.

Isn't that Liang Xuanjing?

Li Chang'an couldn't help but raise his eyebrows slightly.

It's really unexpected that these two have become friends after not seeing each other for so long!

It seems I was overthinking things. I originally thought that managing the brocade workshop would cause trouble for Tao Yaojun, but now it seems that he is still quite happy!

Liang Xuanjing was the first person to notice Li Chang'an entering.

Upon seeing that the visitor was Li Chang'an, he immediately stood up and greeted him with a smile in his eyes. He then bowed slightly and said, "Oh, what a coincidence that Your Highness has also taken the time to come?"

Li Chang'an nodded slightly to Liang Xuanjing, then walked towards Tao Yaojun.

The man seemed oblivious, stroking his chin with a slight frown, as if he were deeply troubled.

After a moment, he suddenly looked up and said, "I really didn't expect this... um?"

Upon seeing the person sitting in front of him, Tao Yaojun almost stopped speaking. His brow twitched, and he turned to look, only to find Liang Xuanjing and Zhuque standing silently to the side, also watching him.

"Oh, what a rare guest! Young Master Liang, you're really being unfair! You've given me such a difficult problem, and yet you went all the way over to His Highness without even calling me?"

Upon hearing this, Liang Xuanjing shrugged, as if the matter had nothing to do with him, and then said righteously, "You didn't hear the noise yourself, so you can't blame me!"

Upon hearing this, Tao Yaojun couldn't help but pout, then lightly clicked her tongue. She then nimbly jumped off the wooden couch and walked up to Li Chang'an, smiling lightly, "Your Highness, did you come here today to inspect the work? How is it? Doesn't it feel refreshing to be here?"

After saying that, Tao Yaojun opened her arms wide, looking very smug.

Apart from Liang Xuanjing, Li Chang'an and Zhuque were both petrified on the spot.

Then Li Chang'an said helplessly, "If you like it, that's fine."

Upon hearing this, Tao Yaojun's smile froze, and then she said incredulously, "What, doesn't Your Highness think that this brocade workshop has become much more vibrant after my renovation?"

Li Chang'an was utterly speechless, but could only nod faintly and reply, "Indeed, extremely vivid."

"To be honest, I think I might be born to do this. Ever since I changed the environment here, business has been much better than before!"

Tao Yaojun reported her work achievements to Li Chang'an with a smug look on her face.

"It's obvious that if business were a complete mess, you wouldn't have the time to leisurely hide here and play chess."

Li Chang'an couldn't help but purse his lips, then glanced at Liang Xuanjing beside him and suddenly felt that these two unreliable people were a perfect match.

Liang Xuanjing naturally felt the other person's gaze and immediately waved his hand, saying, "Don't misunderstand, my coming here today is purely coincidental. My father has been keeping a close eye on me these past few days, and I haven't been able to go out to play for a long time!"

Upon hearing this, Li Chang'an couldn't help but sigh and rub her forehead in exasperation. She secretly thought to herself, "This guy really is a carefree person with nothing to his name, which I really envy."

"That's right, that's right. It's all thanks to Young Master Liang for playing chess with me, otherwise I would have been bored to death! All I do is look at accounts, select goods, and check inventory, and I'm losing more hair than before..."

Taoyao-jun couldn't help but start complaining.

Li Chang'an didn't want to waste any more time chatting with these two, so she changed the subject and said, "I haven't had time to come and thank you the other day. It just so happens that Young Master Liang is here today, so how about we go have a meal together? I've already booked a private room at Xikelou. You can just go there at noon."

After hearing Li Chang'an's words, Tao Yaojun's face lit up with joy, and she immediately agreed, "Then thank you very much for your hospitality today, Your Highness. Please allow me to tidy up and I will be there in a moment."

Watching the person hurriedly leave, Li Chang'an and Zhuque were once again stunned and speechless.

He's already made it so exquisite, how much more do you need to clean it up?

Perhaps I've been living too carelessly!

Thinking of this, Li Chang'an couldn't help but shake his head helplessly, and then said to Liang Xuanjing beside him, "I have some things to do, see you later."

After saying this, Li Chang'an was about to leave, but unexpectedly Liang Xuanjing suddenly followed him, saying in a solemn manner, "If Your Highness is going to leave, please take me with you."

Aren't you going to wait here?

Li Chang'an couldn't help but raise an eyebrow and ask.

Liang Xuanjing shrugged helplessly again, then pouted and complained, "Forget it, it'll probably take him an hour to get ready. I don't have the patience to wait!"

Seeing the helpless expression on the person in front of him, which was no less than his own, Li Chang'an couldn't help but chuckle and then nodded.

The three of them left the brocade workshop together, and then Li Chang'an went directly to Jin Lane in the north of the city.

After getting off the carriage and walking a short distance, a large cluster of houses suddenly appeared before us. Above the main gate in the center hung a prominent plaque with the words "Liu Mansion" written in regular script.

Immediately, Li Chang'an stepped forward and knocked on the door.

The door opened shortly afterward, and a servant came out. Seeing Li Chang'an and his party, he asked with some surprise, "Who are you looking for?"

Is your young lady at home?

Li Chang'an asked the question.
