Chapter 198

Luo Chu frowned, eldest princess?
How did she know about him and find him?
Luo Chu paused and said to the guard beside him: "Go to the shopkeeper and ask him to open a private room, and then go and invite the people downstairs who you asked to inform into the private room."

The guard cupped his hands and said "yes".

Sitting in the corner downstairs, Qin Shuhuang did not bring any of his maids when he went out today, but only brought Xuan Cang and a few personal guards with him.

She was dressed in riding clothes and drank tea calmly, without any anxious look on her face.

Not long after, the teahouse owner came over with a smile, bowed and said respectfully: "Noble sir, I have a guest who would like to invite you to the private room to chat with me. This guest said his surname is Luo."

Qin Shuhuang stood up and followed the shopkeeper who led the way.

Not long after, the shopkeeper brought Qin Shuhuang to the door of a private room on the third floor.

The shopkeeper made an inviting gesture to Qin Shuhuang and left.

There was a guard guarding the door. Seeing Qin Shuhuang coming, he pushed the door of the private room open and invited Qin Shuhuang in.

Just when Xuan Cang was about to follow, the guard raised his sword to stop Xuan Cang. Before Qin Shuhuang could speak, Luo Chu inside said, "Don't stop me. We are here today as distinguished guests."

After hearing Luo Chu's words, the guard immediately withdrew his sword.

The private room was not big, and Luo Chu was the only one sitting there. Xuan Cang glanced at it and winked at the guards behind him. The rest of the people did not follow him in, but stayed at the door of the private room to guard.

When Qin Shuhuang and Xuan Cang entered the private room, the guard guarding the door closed the door.

In the private room, Luo Chu sat with his back to the door.

When the footsteps behind him stopped, Luo Chucai stood up and turned around to salute Qin Shuhuang, "Luo welcomes Her Royal Highness the Eldest Princess, Her Royal Highness the Eldest Princess please!"

Qin Shuhuang glanced at Luo Chu. Hot tea had been brewed and snacks were placed on the table next to him, and he was waiting for her to take a seat.

Putting his past and present lives together, this was the first time Qin Shuhuang had contact with Mr. Luo.

Although there was still a trace of curiosity in his heart, his face remained calm as usual. Qin Shuhuang nodded to Luo Chu and walked to sit opposite him.

After sitting down, Luo Chu personally poured tea for Qin Shuhuang, "I don't know how the eldest princess recognized me."

We are all smart people and are not easy to deceive. At this time, it is better to tell the truth than to tell lies that are full of loopholes.

Qin Shuhuang smiled and said, "I sent someone to follow Mr. Luo."

Only in this way can we know the whereabouts of Luo Chu as soon as possible.

Luo Chu just smiled softly at the answer given by Qin Shuhuang and did not find it strange at all, "Your Highness is a noble person. It would be inappropriate to spend energy on following an ordinary person like me, Luo. If something happens to Luo, Your Highness will It’s time to take responsibility.”

"I remember that Mr. Luo also followed me." Qin Shuhuang responded unhurriedly and blocked Luo Chu's words with one sentence.

Both of them had followed each other, so this matter was settled and there was no need to mention it again.

This was Luo Chu's first real contact with the Princess Wu. He had always thought that the princess had been carried away by love and would be "drinking her blood and peeling off her skin" by the Gu family, eating her up bit by bit. It was really a pity.

But they suddenly divorced and did so many things.

That time when he followed Qin Shuhuang, he saw a different side of Qin Shuhuang.

Now, he can be sure that the eldest princess is not out of her mind, but is keeping a low profile in the Gu family for the sake of "counterattack and rise" during this period!
Luo Chu took a sip of the tea in front of him and said, "I wonder what your highness would do if you found me today?"

Qin Shuhuang rubbed the side of the cup in front of him and suddenly looked up at Luo Chu. Qin Shuhuang's almond-shaped eyes were bright and clear, like a bottomless pool, "I want to cooperate with Mr. Luo." Luo Chu said slightly. Surprised, obviously not guessing the answer.

"Cooperation? What does Your Highness want to cooperate with?"

Qin Shuhuang picked up the tea cup and took a sip, "I want to cooperate with Mr. Luo to destroy the marriage between the imperial court and Beidi."

Luo Chu's originally calm expression flashed with panic for a moment, and was quickly covered up by him.

He laughed, as if he thought Qin Shuhuang's words were nonsense, "Your Highness, you must know that Luo is a member of the Regent. The Regent advocates peace, so how could Luo betray the Regent."

Qin Shuhuang raised the corner of her mouth and did not answer Luo Chu's words, but said: "Concubine Liu Gui only wants King Ping to ascend to the throne. She does not really regard the fifth princess as her biological daughter, but King Ping still has a brother-sister relationship, so she should be reluctant to see it. Fifth sister, let’s fill the wolf’s den like this.”

Luo Chu could no longer maintain the indifferent look on his face.

The eldest princess just made it clear that he was from King Ping and not from the regent. It would be meaningless for him to quibble any more and it would only make the eldest princess look down on him.

"His Highness has sharp eyes, Luo admires him!"

"What about the cooperation I mentioned?"

"Luo is willing to cooperate! He is also willing to help His Highness ruin the marriage."

Qin Shuhuang nodded with satisfaction, "I hope Mr. Luo and the fourth emperor brother keep their word. I had a cup of tea with Mr. Luo today, and I will invite you back next time."

The matter was settled and Qin Shuhuang's goal was achieved, so he did not stay any longer and left with Xuan Cang and his guards.

After Qin Shuhuang left, Luo Chu sat in the elegant room and couldn't calm down for a long time.

He couldn't think of any flaw in him that allowed the eldest princess to discover his true identity.

He had been at the Regent's Palace all day, and so far he was sure that the Regent had not suspected that he was working for someone else.

Suddenly, Luo Chu, who looked solemn, laughed, and the guards guarding the door were so shocked that they couldn't help but look back.

He didn't sell himself to Prince Ping. If he found a more suitable master, why didn't he try to find another one?It happened that he was already dissatisfied with some of Prince Ping's practices and ideas.

Then it is better to regard this opportunity as a pledge of fame!

After Qin Shuhuang left the teahouse, he did not go back directly to the eldest princess's mansion. Instead, he asked the coachman to go around the restaurant owned by Bai Lingge.

Opposite the restaurant is a bookstore. Qin Shuhuang and Xuan Cang entered the bookstore and went up to the quiet small study room provided for guests on the second floor.

Through the window of the study room, you can have a panoramic view of the restaurant opposite.

Bai Lingge's restaurant has officially opened.

But unlike before the flood, the restaurant was packed with guests. At this time, the restaurant was crowded. Two waiters kept soliciting passersby at the door. There was also a [-]% discount message at the door of the restaurant, but still no customers came in to take a look.

The waiter who kept shouting at the door was tired and leaned on the pillar in front of the door weakly.

When the shopkeeper inside saw it, he came out and scolded him twice. The waiter immediately cheered up again, but after two quarters of an hour, the same thing happened again.

The boy in the bookstore knocked on the door and came in to deliver tea. Qin Shuhuang asked the boy, "Little boy, the restaurant opposite used to be very busy, why is there no one now?"

The tea boy rolled his eyes at the restaurant opposite and said: "Noble man, please don't go to the opposite restaurant. The opposite party is a very evil person. Not to mention the price, the quality of the dishes has deteriorated. In the past two days, I almost gave the two young masters diarrhea. Half a life removed.”
