Dugu Jingyao is reborn as Li Chu's beloved

The large group of people came out of West Street again and got on the carriages.

This time, Chu Xinyu was sensible and let the frightened Dugu Jingyue sit next to Dugu Jingyao. There was no angry expression on her face, and she even felt a little sorry for Dugu Jingyue.

Wei Jiayan also looked at her daughter beside her with great satisfaction: It seems that she has become much more sensible, not bad, not bad.

Since Chu Xinyu gave up her seat to her, Liu Jingyue did not hesitate and sat next to Dugu Jingyao, and leaned forward and kept leaning on her all the way.

Perhaps they were a little tired after a whole day of sightseeing, so the women in the car were either really asleep or resting their eyes.

When the man got in the car, Dugu Xin grabbed Li Chu and asked him about what had happened just now.

However, when Li Chu arrived, they had already caught the thief, but they hadn't handed him over to the authorities. Moreover, Li Chu promised Dugu Xin that he would never let the thief off easily!

Just like that, Dugu Xin stopped asking questions and they all rested in the car.

In less than two quarters of an hour, we returned to the posthouse.

Li Chu opened his eyes as soon as the carriage stopped. Dugu Xin and Chu Xiaoyi had been in the military camp for many years just to recuperate, and Chu Xinghan also went to the military camp often for training.

The remaining two were really sleepy and didn't wake up even after the car stopped.

The situation was similar for the women's car. Only Wei Jiayan and Dugu Jingyao were awake, and the other three were asleep. When the car stopped suddenly, the other two did not wake up, but Liu Jingyue was awakened.

Maybe because a stampede almost happened just now, Dugu Jingyao was a little frightened. She felt the person next to her tremble noticeably.

Dugu Jingyao patted Dugu Jingyue's shoulder and said, "It's okay, Yue'er, we've arrived at the inn."

Because of the change in Dugu Jingyao's movements, Li Ruo on the other side also woke up.

Wei Jiayan saw that her daughter was still sleeping soundly and did not have the heart to wake her up. However, since they had arrived at the destination, she still gently stroked Chu Xinyu's head and said softly, "Yu'er, wake up. We have arrived at the inn."

Chu Xinyu also slowly rubbed her eyes and woke up.

Everyone in one car got out of the car as soon as they were sober, while everyone in the other car got out early and waited for the women without urging them.

Only after seeing that all the female relatives had gotten off the carriage did they enter the inn together.

After sending them all to their respective residences, Li Chu said, "We've been out and about all day, and everyone's tired. Let's go to bed early. Tomorrow is the Emperor's birthday, so we'll see you tomorrow!"

After saying this, Li Chu took Li Neng and Li Ruo back to the Eastern Palace. After the two were sent back to the Eastern Palace safely, he also returned to the palace.

This day was indeed very tiring, but thinking that I had played the hero and saved the beauty, the corners of my mouth couldn't help but rise.

But when he thought of the thief today, Li Chu's face became gloomier again.

I thought to myself: It's all my fault. If I hadn't let Jingyao and Jingyue out of my sight, this wouldn't have happened. I was so angry!

Then, while closing his eyes to rest, he asked Feng Shengyi, "How is the thief?"

Feng Shengyi said in a reassuring tone, "Don't worry, Your Highness. I've already sent someone to take the thief to the government office, and have them treat him well!"

Hearing this, Li Chu breathed a sigh of relief.

In the evening, Dugu Xin's family and Chu Xiaoyi's family finished their dinner and went to bed soon after.

However, what happened during the day left a bit of a shadow on Liu Jingyue, so when Dugu Jingyao lay down on the bed and was about to fall asleep, she heard a knock on the door.

Dugu Jingyao frowned slightly, but still asked, "Who is it?"

Shi Jian said: "Princess, it's the little princess who has arrived."

The little princess was none other than Dugu Jingyue. Since there were two princesses in the mansion, it would seem strange to call her Princess Yining, so Dugu Jingyao was the elder princess and Dugu Jingyue was the younger princess.

When she heard that it was Dugu Jingyue, Dugu Jingyao immediately became alert: "Let Yue'er in!"

Hearing this, Shi Jian pushed the door open and closed it again after Liu Jingyue entered the room.

Liu Jingyue walked quietly to the bed. Dugu Jingyao got angry when she saw that she was wearing pajamas again and casually put on a cloak.

I'm angry that Dugu Jingyue is disobedient. I've already told her about it before, why doesn't she change?

Dugu Jingyao frowned slightly and asked, "It's even darker outside, so why are you wearing such thin clothes?"

Liu Jingyue knew she was in the wrong, so she lowered her head and said, "Sister, I know I was wrong, but I can't sleep in bed. I keep thinking about the scene of everyone rushing up to me today!"

Dugu Jingyao softened her attitude upon hearing this and beckoned Dugu Jingyue to come up. "You promised me you wouldn't wear such skimpy clothes again. Since you've broken your promise, I'll have to punish Zhishu and Shili after the palace banquet tomorrow. Is that okay with you?"

Liu Jingyue thought to herself, "That's it! This is what's going on?" I was so caught up in my fear that I forgot about it. I just mentioned that those two little girls had been trying to persuade me to wear more clothes.

But he had promised Dugu Jingyao before, so he had to keep his promise. He could only plead, "Well, sister, can you please make the punishment lighter for protecting me today?"

Dugu Jingyao looked at Dugu Jingyue and couldn't help but shake her head. "You're thinking of begging for mercy now. What were you doing before? Forget it. Considering their loyalty to their master, I'll give them a lighter punishment. But I can't let them off lightly every time. Remember that?"

Liu Jingyue raised three fingers and said, "I swear, I really remember it!"

Dugu Jingyao held down her finger, fearing she would say something earth-shattering and heartbreaking: "Alright, go to sleep! Tomorrow is the Emperor's birthday, so don't get up too late!"

After that, the two of them lay down together. Dugu Jingyao even tucked the corner of the quilt for Dugu Jingyue before falling asleep. As expected, they had a good night's sleep.
