Gu Yunni thought for a moment and said, "Alright, Mingyu will feel more at ease if you go over there. Come with me."
After Gu Yunni and the Imperial Master finished their meal, they packed up their things and left the mansion.
When Sheng Mingyu got the news, his face turned grim, but he felt much more relieved than before.
With the Imperial Master following Gu Yunni, there shouldn't be any major problems.
When she first arrived at the brothel, Gu Yunni saw her mother dressed very beautifully. She was in her thirties and was wearing a pink dress.
The room was filled with the strong smell of powder, which made Gu Yunni cough again and again.
Just now, my mother had a shy look on her face, but when she saw Gu Yunni, she became serious again and personally helped her walk forward.
"Don't be offended, Princess. This is how it is in brothels. If you're not feeling well, don't go out for the next few days. You're just a figurehead anyway, and I won't let you see any guests."
"Nothing, I'm just not used to it for the time being. I can't stay away from you forever, I'm afraid it will arouse suspicion. If you have anything, feel free to come to me."
Gu Yunni looked around the room, sat down next to the dressing table, and gave her mother a lot of instructions before letting her leave.
The Imperial Master walked around the room with a smile on his face.
"You know what? Sheng Mingyu does have some influence in Jiangnan. I just don't know whose influence he's borrowing. It's not easy to force his way into such a big brothel."
The Imperial Master poured the tea and sat on the couch to enjoy it.
Gu Yunni raised an eyebrow, "Really? Can't this thing be opened whenever you want? As long as there is a pretty girl."
The Imperial Master looked over in surprise and told her about this.
"Of course it can't be opened easily unless there's someone powerful behind it. Even the dining area is like this, let alone such a large brothel? Do you think Sheng Mingyu has influence in other places?"
It was only after he came to Kyoto that he learned about such rules.
"I don't know, but I'm guessing it's quite a few. Do you think Boss Liu will come to this brothel? If a courtesan suddenly appears, will anyone be suspicious?"
Gu Yunni shook her head and had no intention of spying on Sheng Mingyu's power.
Although they were an engaged couple, she had never thought that they would have such a lack of boundaries.
"Isn't he said to be lustful? If a courtesan with a stunning appearance were to show up, he would probably be very interested. You just wait here, she will be here in a few days."
The Imperial Master enjoyed the wine and didn't take it seriously at all.
After chatting with Gu Yunni for a few words, the Imperial Master couldn't wait to run out of the house. "Okay, you stay in the house. I'll go out for a walk. I haven't been to a place like this for a long time. I'm still a little uncomfortable."
Gu Yunni looked at him with disgust from behind, she never expected that the Imperial Master would linger in a brothel.
The Imperial Master looked back and met those eyes. His expression suddenly turned grim and he couldn't help but explain.
"Don't look at me like that! I'm doing serious work, I'm just listening to music and drinking tea!"
Who says you have to do that kind of thing when you go to a brothel?
Gu Yunni ignored him and sat alone in the room for the entire day without gaining anything.
When she was dozing off, the door was pushed open from the outside. Sheng Mingyu was standing in the light, staring at her in a daze.
"What? You can't stay here for just one day? Do you want to go back with me? Let's get someone else."
Sheng Mingyu's tone was no longer as cold as yesterday, but it wasn't particularly good either. Gu Yunni smiled awkwardly.
"No need. We've already held out here for one day. It doesn't matter if we hold out a few more days. Besides, the Imperial Master told me that Boss Liu will probably be here in a few days."
"Hmph!" Sheng Mingyu's face became even uglier, but he couldn't curse, so he slammed the door and went into the house to sit down.
The two were silent for a long time, and Sheng Mingyu took the initiative to speak, "Didn't you say you would have dinner with me? I'm here to have dinner with you."
"oh……"
Mo Qing opened the door with a group of people and placed the food on the table one by one.
Gu Yunni sat down, face to face with Sheng Mingyu, and didn't say a word during the entire meal. She almost suffered from indigestion from eating so much.
Seeing her cautious look, Sheng Mingyu finally softened his heart. "This prince has already arranged everything. Boss Liu will probably be here tonight. Just take care of yourself and knock him out. This prince will find someone to take over his business."
He lost again in this game.
"If you find anything wrong, just call for help. I'm in the next room and will come right over."
Gu Yunni nodded quietly and didn't say another word except "OK".
Sheng Mingyu moved to Gu Yunni's side, holding her hand and coaxing her gently, "What's wrong? Are you still angry with me about what happened yesterday? I was indeed a little angry yesterday, so I threw the things down. Didn't I ask Mo Qing to get the sound transmission talisman back today? Don't be angry."
"No, it was me who made you angry yesterday. Just don't be angry with me."
Gu Yunni didn't take it to heart. This kind of thing was not something they could decide.
"Since you're not angry, why don't you ask me about my specific plans? Haven't you always been most interested in these things? You must still be angry."
Sheng Mingyu didn't understand. Women's minds are really hard to guess.
Gu Yunni smiled and took Sheng Mingyu's hand.
"I just think your plan is flawless. What's there to ask? Besides, I don't understand those things either. Asking would only cause you more trouble. As long as you think it's okay, that's fine."
It was only since yesterday that she found the correct way for the two of them to get along with each other. They should both bow their heads appropriately and not be so willful.
Sheng Mingyu finally smiled and held her in his arms.
"This prince has already contacted Boss Liu's eldest son. He's an upright man who despises his father's behavior. Furthermore, his mother was killed by Boss Wang. There's no need to worry about him turning against us. If he can control Boss Liu, he can ascend to the throne smoothly."
Sheng Mingyu explained the plan in detail, and Gu Yunni was shocked. "Didn't we just finalize the plan last night? How come you've done so much?"
"When I heard you say that yesterday, I knew you wouldn't change your mind easily. I had no choice but to arrange everything. You've invested so much, so of course we have to make sure everything is foolproof."
Although Sheng Mingyu said it easily, he stayed up all night yesterday.
If he wasn't afraid that Gu Yunni would find out, he wouldn't have just let Mo Qing deliver the things today.
"I...will discuss everything with you from now on. I won't make decisions on my own anymore. I already know what I did last night was wrong."
Gu Yunni slowly raised her head, her eyes filled with emotion.
"Also, I need to explain to you about the brothel. In the past few years, I have planted intelligence gathering points in various places, but they are not easily contacted. This is why this prince has never known what happened in Jiangnan."
"I understand. I believe you..."
Sheng Mingyu looked at Gu Yunni tenderly and reached out to touch her hair. The two were getting closer and closer. Just when their lips were about to touch, the Imperial Master rushed in from outside and pushed the door open.
