Inside Listening Rain Tower, the guards at the door immediately bowed in greeting upon seeing Li Tiangang.
Li Tiangang went straight to the seventh floor; his gaze swept the area but did not catch sight of his second uncle, which only fueled his anger.
He turned back downstairs and asked, "Where is the old man?"
"The old Marquis seems to have gone fishing."
"Where is he fishing?"
"This servant does not know."
Li Tiangang was furious. Since childhood, he had heard that this second uncle was loose in discipline, not getting along with his father's brothers, and it was indeed the case.
The man's duty was to guard Listening Rain Tower, yet he was nowhere to be seen, and even when intending to find him, he couldn't be located.
Seeing his angry face, the guard became frightened and, as if thinking of something, hastily said, "My lord, this lowly one thinks he knows a place the old Marquis might go to."
"What place?"
