When the prince made arrangements, Li Chen had already gone upstairs with two women, one in each arm.

In a place like that, money talks.

Li Chen's demeanor and attire didn't look like those of a poor person at all, so the service at this brothel was truly meticulous.

Not only was there an endless stream of good wine and delicious food, but even the several women present had faces full of flattery and obsequiousness, wishing they could immediately shed their clothes and throw themselves into Li Chen's arms.

Li Chen jokingly interacted with them, and after the dishes were served, he casually took out a silver ingot and tossed it to the attendant serving the food. He said, “This young master wants to have a good discussion about the philosophy of life with these beautiful ladies here. From now on, no one is allowed to enter this room. Otherwise, not only will there be no reward, but also punishment. Did you hear me”

This light and airy phrase, coupled with such a generous gesture, almost brought to life the character of a carefree, prodigal son.

That young servant, with both hands full of silver, had a look of surprise and nonchalance on his face. He chuckled and said, "Sir, rest assured, I'll personally bring a few lads to guard the door, ensuring not even a fly can get in."

At this point, Li Chen had already buried his face in a woman's chest. He didn't raise his head, only waving his hand to dismiss the servant.

The little servant bowed respectfully and exited the room, kindly closing the door behind him.

Almost the instant the door was shut, Xu Wei, who had been standing behind Li Chen the whole time, suddenly made his move. He grabbed both women by their necks with one hand each.

But Xiaozi didn't have Xu Wei's reach, but still managed to draw a dagger and pressed it against the third woman's throat.

"Don't speak! Make a sound and I'll kill you all immediately!" Xu Wei hissed in a low voice.

Three women were so frightened that their faces turned pale, they trembled with fear, but they didn't dare to make a sound.

At this point, Li Chen had already stood up. He didn't even glance at the three dusty women who had just been engaged in a heated argument with him, and directly exchanged clothes with Xiao Chuanzi.

At this moment, the servant who had gone out the door was true to his word and had indeed called two porters to stand guard at the entrance.

At that very moment, two burly men strode in.

The little houseboy glanced at them, instantly realizing that while these two weren't easy to mess with, they definitely weren't wealthy. They looked more like thugs or bodyguards than anything else.

But unexpectedly, the two burly men walked straight up to them. Before the servant could speak, one of the strongmen pulled out a token from his waist and said in a deep voice, "Don't speak, scram. Say another word and you die."

The little servant's eyes widened. He could only see the gleaming golden badge on the strong man's waist. Although he didn't recognize many characters, he had to know three words in order to survive in Jincheng, words that were even more important than his own name.

That is the name Ning Wangfu, three characters.

The little servant had clearly seen the three characters, and he was so frightened that he didn't dare to fart. He didn't say a word and ran away directly.

After the three men left, two burly men exchanged glances and took their place at the door.

Everyone, including the owner of this brothel, thought these two were the young master from inside. No one would suspect them, and even if they did, no one would dare to ask.

The three words, "Ning Wangfu," carried more weight in Jincheng than any law.

And those two burly men, seeming to guard the place, were actually leaning in, ears pricked, listening for any sound from within the room.

When they heard the giggling and rustling of clothes coming from inside, the two of them exchanged glances and simultaneously cursed inwardly: "Beasts."y satisfied.Of course, Li Chen didn't break his promise about the table of food. Otherwise, he would have to feed Yelu Guzanqi with two steamed buns every day again. When someone from Liao arrived to...
