Chapter 33 Wangtian Tower
Gu Yunyao used to be in the villa, and his grandfather hired many tutors, some were old-fashioned and strict, and some looked gentle but were actually strict.
For this reason, she can switch seamlessly between modes such as showing weakness, admitting mistakes, feeling guilty, and crying.
No matter how strict the teacher is, he will be defeated when faced with a weak and pitiful girl.
Only grandpa knows how "naughty" this granddaughter is.
Shen Munan abruptly changed the subject: "Where did you ask me to accompany you?"
"West of the city, Wangtian Tower."
Shen Munan: "..."
"Why go there?"
"The prince means that he knows what kind of business is done there?"
"Not only I know this, but many people know that Wangtian Tower, as its name suggests, is about seeing secrets from heaven, selling information, and knowing everything."
Only then did Gu Yunyao understand that Wangtianlou meant something, but she didn't see the meaning from the name.
"What news are you buying?"
"A Taoist priest," Gu Yunyao said, "This Taoist priest is a monk, but he doesn't think about doing good. He has a bad mouth and harms others."
Shen Munan heard her take the initiative to speak out, unlike when she faced the "killer" last night and had to wait for the killer to ask.
I felt a little happy for a moment.
"That's right," Shen Munan nodded, "However, the prices for shopping at Wangtianlou are not low. Do you have the money?"
Gu Yunyao sighed: "I don't have any money, but I heard that you can exchange items for information there. I thought about it and I can exchange it for scented mist."
"What fragrance?" Shen Munan's eyes narrowed.
"It's the scented mist I used for the prince last night."
Shen Munan continued in one breath: "Didn't you say that you asked me to accompany you and then give the thing to me? Now you want to exchange it for news?"
"But I don't have anything else. The prince also said that Wangtianlou News is expensive, and I have no money, so I can only exchange it. When I recover, I can have another bottle."
Shen Munan gave a short laugh: "You want me to pay for your inquiry, right?"
Gu Yunyao blinked innocently: "It's unfair. I don't know the road. I just asked the prince to help guide me. I don't want to take advantage of you."
She really didn't have this idea at first, but this morning Shen Munan went to pick her up from the house with great fanfare, and she had to show off her claws.
Shen Munan was secretly angry.
Piang Gu Yunyao was right, her things were all very strange. The small medicine bottle from last night, the anesthetic needle, and the fragrance mist that he had not yet received all made him feel fresh and curious.
While we were talking, we went to Wangtian Tower.
Gu Yunyao got out of the car and looked up. The building was seven stories high. In this period, except for temples, pagodas and the like, it was really rare for ordinary buildings to be built to such a high height.
The building is so tall that it looks like a mighty god standing tall and imposing.
A black plaque has large gilt characters written in the shape of dancing dragons and phoenixes.
Look at the sky tower.
As soon as they arrived, a young man in white clothes and plain robe walked out. He had fine features and looked elegant.
"How many of them are you buying or selling?"
Gu Yunyao glanced at him, he was more refined than the average waiter.
"purchase ."
"Follow me to the second floor."
Shen Munan was in front, Gu Yunyao was behind, and they followed the waiter up to the second floor.
Gu Yunyao looked around without leaving any trace. The layout of the building was exquisite and ingenious. It seemed that there were organs and activities everywhere.
She had played with a model of this kind of small building before, but there was still a gap between the model and the real thing.
Shen Munan seemed to have no intention of looking at her, and saw that her expression was calm, without any surprise or curiosity.
The shopkeeper came out of the room and saw Shen Munan who had just arrived on the second floor. His eyes quickly flashed with surprise. Just as he was about to step forward to greet him, Shen Munan made a gesture.
The shopkeeper smiled slightly and asked the waiter to step aside and greet him personally.
"What news does the lady want to buy?"
"A Taoist priest, Taoist Master Lingxu."
The shopkeeper's face didn't change: "Okay, when will the lady want it?"
"Of course, the faster, the better."
"If it's slow, it will take seven days; if it's fast, it can be obtained within two days."
Gu Yunyao didn't expect it to go so smoothly and that the other party was so refreshing.
"I want quick news, but I don't want to exchange it for information. How much does this cost? The shopkeeper can give me a price."
The shopkeeper is confused, exchanging things for information? When did Wangtianlou have such a rule?
But his expression remained normal, and he thought for a moment: "Three hundred taels."
"Everything is detailed. From birth to now, everything has been investigated clearly."
Gu Yunyao glanced at Shen Munan: "Give me money."
Shen Munan: "..."
Shopkeeper: "..."
Master, what does this mean? You dislike their bad business these days, so you invite customers here yourself?
It is said that they have made a lot of money this month, even more than last month.
Shen Munan looked back at Qiu Feng: "Give me money."
There was a storm in Qiu Feng's mind. He had no clue at all and was even more confused than the shopkeeper. He twisted out three hundred-tael silver notes with his fingers and handed them to the shopkeeper heartbrokenly.
The shopkeeper received the check and didn't know whether to be happy or unhappy.
Gu Yunyao was in a good mood: "Shopkeeper, since you received news so quickly, how about I write a poem for you Wangtianlou?"
The shopkeeper was stunned.
Shen Munan asked: "Can you also write poetry? You don't know any limericks, do you?"
The news he found was that Miss Gu had not liked studying since she was a child. Especially after General Gu disappeared, no one cared about her studying.
"Lergerine is also poetry." Gu Yunyao raised her chin slightly, "Shopkeeper, prepare some pen and ink."
"good."
The shopkeeper brought a pen and paper, but Gu Yunyao didn't take it: "I said, you write."
"The dangerous building is a hundred feet high. You can pick the stars with your hands. You dare not speak loudly for fear of frightening the heavens."
The shopkeeper stopped writing and looked up at Gu Yunyao in surprise.
Appreciation flashed in Shen Munan's eyes: "Miss Gu Er really surprised me."
"I just saw that this building is very high, and suddenly I came to poetry."
The shopkeeper clapped his hands: "My lady has outstanding literary talent, I admire her. I will definitely write it down in the hall on the first floor in the future."
Gu Yunyao nodded slightly. Once the matter was done, he could leave.
Just as she turned her eyes, she paused again: "Shopkeeper, can you find out the news about my father? If you can, I'm willing to pay any amount."
The shopkeeper was stunned, Shen Munan's eyes were dark, and there was no trace of happiness or anger.
"I'm very sorry about General Gu. If there is any news, we will do our best to investigate."
Gu Yunyao smiled bitterly: "Thank you very much."
Back on the carriage, Shen Munan saw that she was in a bad mood and said for the first time: "The imperial court has been investigating your father's affairs in the past few years. Although it has not paid as much attention to it as in the past two years, it has not stopped. "
After a pause, he added: "If you become Princess Qin, you will definitely investigate again."
Gu Yunyao glanced at him: "Is the prince trying to comfort me? Or is he reminding me to fulfill my promise as soon as possible?"
Shen Munan was about to deny it, but Gu Yunyao added: "Actually, I'm also very surprised. Lu Chuanlin obviously doesn't like me. Even without this elopement incident, he was also very dissatisfied with me, but he turned around and said Not only that, but not only that, the Duke's wife also came to visit."
