Drunk Bamboo

"This is a good idea! The prince has been through hundreds of battles and has strict military discipline. Let him be frustrated and he will know what military orders are like and what the battlefield is like!"

Lord Gu slammed the table in applause.

After a while, he showed worry again:

"However, the prince has never been close to others. I wonder if you are willing?"

Xie Yuzhu agreed first: "Your Highness, your righteous act of raising money is extremely righteous. My prince is most fond of such a man of integrity and will definitely agree."

Lord Gu clasped his fists in thanks and said, "Then I'll have to trouble the princess to say a few good words to the prince."

Xie Yuzhu nodded slightly.

I was thinking, I wonder if this is a trap for Gu Suiyi?

As soon as it got dark, Xie Yuzhu changed into men's clothes, dressed like a scholar, and came to Yongxing Marquis' Mansion to pick up Gu Suiyi.

Yun Ling stopped the carriage and stepped forward to report. Soon, Gu Suiyi came running out, waving a folding fan.

With a smile on his face, he got on the carriage:

"What trick did the princess use to make my father, who is so hard-hearted, loosen up..."

When he lifted the curtain and saw Xie Yuzhu's outfit, he was immediately stunned.

"Don't you recognize me, Master Gu?"

Gu Suiyi put away his folding fan, coughed lightly, sat down next to her, and asked in surprise, "Why are you wearing men's clothes, Princess?"

He smiled and said, "I wore it specially to invite the prince to dinner. It's cheap."

"This is more conspicuous." Gu Suiyi glanced at her and looked at her for a while. "I don't care about reputation. Whether it's infamous or famous, it's all against my will. I finally asked for the grace of His Majesty, but my father ruined it. Tell me, how can I escape from the Marquis' Mansion in this life?"

Gu Suiyi shook his head: "No, if the princess was here, I would have escaped."

Xie Yuzhu just smiled and said nothing.

Gu Suiyi's eyes widened as he guessed, "Could it be that the princess is disguised to secretly send me out of Zhongdu?!"

Xie Yuzhu stopped laughing and said, "Is it possible that the prince has been locked up by the Marquis for too long and has started to have wild thoughts? I just simply invited the prince to have a simple meal."

Suspiciously asked, "Is it just as simple as having a meal?"

He really couldn't understand Xie Yuzhu.

Xie Yuzhu asked: "What are you thinking about?"

Holding his chin, he smiled confidently: "I know I am born to be suave, handsome and elegant..."

Before he could finish his narcissistic speech, Xie Yuzhu took over the conversation, she really couldn't bear to listen any more.

"I told the Marquis that when my prince is done with the Loushan case and comes back home, I will let you learn martial arts from him. Hearing about the real dangers and bloodshed of the battlefield will scare your courage so that you can calm down. I also advised you a few more times before I agreed to let you out."

As soon as these words came out, Gu Suiyi's doubts disappeared, and he said excitedly: "Really! The prince agreed to let me follow?!"

Xie Yuzhu said seriously, "The prince dislikes arrogant and narcissistic people the most. I wanted to tell the prince about the hard work of the prince in raising money this time, but the prince is so self-proclaimed and romantic that I'm afraid he is not suitable to be with the prince. I'm afraid that the prince will be in a bad mood one day and can't stop himself, and it will be bad if someone dies. The prince should get off the car and pretend that I have never been to the marquis' mansion."

Then he sighed softly, looking regretful.

Gu Suiyi was now anxious and hurriedly apologized:

"No, no, I'm wrong. The princess is very generous. She is beautiful and kind-hearted, so she is the best kind of person! I am blind and my heart is blinded by greed, so I am talking nonsense. The prince is handsome and heroic, and the princess has such a tall and suave man by her side. How can I be in the princess's eyes with my appearance?"

"Everything is up to the princess. I will obey her respectfully! As long as the princess allows me to follow the prince, I will obey her in everything."

Xie Yuzhu looked at him and said, "Listen to my instructions?"

He nodded suddenly: "Yes, whatever the princess says is what I will absolutely obey!"

Only then did Xie Yuzhu nod.

If she hadn't needed Gu Suiyi at Taohua Tower this time, she wouldn't have tried every possible means to please Lord Gu and gone through such a long detour to bring him out.

Or maybe there are too few people I know around me.

Gu Suiyi's joy did not last long. When he saw Taohua Tower, his mentality suddenly collapsed.

"This is……"

"We're here. This is the place. The prince should be very familiar with this place, right?"

Gu Suiyi stood there in a daze, not moving for a long time.

No wonder she is wearing men's clothing, is the princess going to visit a brothel? !

Xie Yuzhu patted his shoulder and urged, "Why are you standing there? I'll treat you, you lead the way!"

She finally got rid of Lao Liu and persuaded Yun Ling, so she could come to Taohua Tower. Gu Suiyi couldn't let her down.

Gu Suiyi came back to his senses, stopped in front of her, and shook his head and waved his hands desperately: "No, no, no, Princess, this is Taohua Tower! If the prince knew that I brought you into Taohua Tower, he would definitely kill me!"

Xie Yuzhu whispered in her ear: "I can get in without you."

Gu Suiyi thought about it and still felt that it was inappropriate.

Even though he had often wandered here before, he had never seen a woman coming here, let alone a princess.

If the prince knew that he was taking the princess to a brothel, he would definitely kill him!

"No, no, Princess, please go back quickly. This is not a place for you to come."

He pulled up her sleeve and was about to get on the carriage.

Xie Yuzhu shook off his hand and warned: "If men can come, why can't women? My legs are on my body, you can't stop me."

"Gu Suiyi, I asked you to come with me because I thought you could protect me. If you don't come with me, and something happens to me in there, the prince will not let you go if he finds out."

Gu Suiyi was stunned again.

This is my own fault.

It would be wrong not to go in with him!

Gu Suiyi patiently asked, "Princess, what exactly do you want to do in Taohua Tower?"

Xie Yuzhu smiled and said, "I just want to see what the Taohua Tower, which is famous in Zhongdu, looks like."

Having said that, he walked around Gu Suiyi and swaggered into Taohua Tower.

Gu Suiyi slapped his head, looking miserable.

"Hey! What kind of princess is this! Visiting a brothel!"

Then he followed: "Wait for me, Mr. Xie!"

Private room on the second floor.

There was a table full of delicious food and good wine, and Gu Suiyi was surrounded by women, smiling and looking very suave.

This should have been the most familiar and comfortable place for him, but today he felt very uncomfortable and wanted to leave immediately.

Although he was smiling, his eyes were always on the "young master" Xie Yuzhu beside him.

I'm afraid something might happen to her.

Mudan, one of the four most beautiful courtesans in Taohua Tower, snuggled up to Gu Suiyi and said coyly, "Mr. Gu, you haven't been to Taohua Tower for a long time. Did you forget about us after receiving the imperial edict?"

Gu Suiyi drank his wine and said jokingly, "Aren't you here to see all the sisters?"

Mudan glanced at the quiet and well-behaved Xie Yuzhu and said, "Why did you bring a little brother with you? He has a handsome face and will surely be handsome in a few years."

He turned around and asked Gu Suiyi in a low voice: "Mr. Gu, what is the purpose of bringing a young lady here?"

Gu Suiyi smiled casually: "Young married ladies, if you want to learn how to capture a man's heart from your sisters, just cooperate with them."

Shaoyao, who was sitting on the other side, also heard it and said with a smile: "We understand."

Cooperating in acting is what the girls in Taohualou are best at.

Xie Yuzhu looked around, his attention focused on the surrounding environment, and he didn't care about Gu Suiyi and the girls' teasing.

Gu Suiyi introduced: "This is my cousin, a scholar. This is his first time to Taohua Tower. I brought him here to see what's out there. Sisters, please be merciful and don't scare my cousin."
