Dugu Jingyao is reborn as Li Chu's beloved

When they walked in, they saw their father sitting there, and their faces showed surprise. However, they still maintained the etiquette, bowing to the Crown Prince and Crown Princess first, and then walked to their respective seats and sat down.

In fact, since they had a full day, they didn't miss their father particularly much. Especially Liu Jingyue, she hadn't had a single moment of leisure all day...

After waking up in the morning, she first enjoyed breakfast at the Crown Princess's place, then began teaching makeup lessons to Aunt Xu and the Crown Princess's personal maids. However, using only the props she brought wasn't enough; after all, with so many people using them, they would quickly run out. Therefore, after lunch, she had the materials collected, as ordered by the Crown Princess, and she specially created a hall for Liu Jingyue to create these items.

Just after she finished making a set of brushes, she returned to Mingxiang Pavilion and was summoned to Zhaoyang Palace. It can be said that her schedule was very tight, and it was a very colorful day.

Liu Jingyue’s current thought is that it is too tiring for her to do it alone, so she will hire someone to do it with her in the future. However, she has to hire her own people because these are secret recipes and cannot be leaked!

However, some people noticed that Li Chu, Chu Xinghan and Chu Xingchen did not show up. This person was none other than Li Ruo!

Li Ruo asked in confusion, "Uncle, why didn't my brother and my two cousins come?"

Chu Xiaoyi answered truthfully, "Today, your uncle Dugu and I were busy writing memorials and had no time to take care of them. We were afraid they would be bored, so we let them go out and have some fun."

When she heard that they were actually going out to play, Li Ruo pouted and thought: How come these people only know how to go out to play and don’t take us with them? I’m so angry!

The prince saw Li Ruo's expression and guessed that she might be unhappy because she couldn't leave the palace to play. This girl was really spoiled. She was not satisfied with having someone to play with and insisted on leaving the palace.

Thinking of this, the Crown Prince couldn't help but sigh, muttering to himself, "It seems he and the Crown Princess have spoiled her too much. She doesn't like to learn music, chess, calligraphy, or painting, and only knows how to play. How can she be like a princess? It really damages the reputation of the royal family."

Chu Xiaoyi could tell that Li Ruo was angry, so he quickly coaxed her, "Okay, Ruo'er, don't be angry. If there's a chance in the future, when they go out to play again, they'll definitely take you guys with them."

Hearing this, Li Ruo's anger finally subsided a little. She smiled and said to Chu Xiaoyi, "Uncle, you must keep your word!"

However, Chu Xiaoyi felt a bit embarrassed. After all, the princesses' travels weren't his decision. He looked up, glanced at the Crown Prince and Crown Princess, then turned back to Li Ruo's expectant gaze and explained helplessly, "Ruo'er, I, your uncle, would love to keep my promise, but the problem is, my say on whether you can leave the palace isn't final!" As he spoke, he deliberately glanced at the Crown Prince and Crown Princess.

Li Ruo was very unhappy when she heard Chu Xiaoyi say that he could not decide whether she could leave the palace, but she also understood that this was indeed not something Chu Xiaoyi could decide.

She knew that her ability to leave the palace depended entirely on the wishes of her father and mother, and that her uncle had no power to allow her to do so. Although somewhat disappointed, Li Ruo accepted this fact and consoled herself by saying that her father and mother loved her very much and would probably agree to her request to leave the palace to play.

However, Li Ruo was very angry about being abandoned by her eldest brother and two cousins. She secretly took note of this and decided to teach them a lesson when she had the chance.

Meanwhile, a group of people who had just finished their stroll along West Street were heading towards East Street when they suddenly sneezed. After the sneeze, they looked at each other, puzzled as to why.

Only Chu Xingchen raised a question: "Is someone talking about us behind our backs?" The other two were unable to explain this situation, so they decided not to dwell on it and just pretend nothing had happened.

Soon, they arrived at East Street. After an afternoon of shopping, everyone was starving, so they headed straight for Tianxianglou.

This time, on the recommendation of the waiter, they changed to a few special dishes and ordered two pots of the famous peach blossom wine and osmanthus wine.

Li Chu didn't want to order anything at first, after all, he had overslept last time because he drank too much. But then he looked at the expectant eyes of the two brothers and thought: It's just two pots of wine, it should be fine. What's more, he didn't know Chu Xingchen, but Chu Xinghan was a big drinker, and these two pots of wine might not be enough to fill his stomach...

Soon all the dishes were served. After they had eaten most of the dishes on the table and were about 70% full, Li Chu asked someone to bring up peach blossom wine and osmanthus wine. After all, it is not easy to get drunk if you eat something before drinking alcohol.

However, Li Chu hadn't calculated everything, but he hadn't figured out that Chu Xingchen wasn't old enough for his family to drink. When the peach blossom wine and osmanthus wine came up, the aroma of the wine filled the air.

Chu Xingchen watched the two of them drinking happily, taking turns drinking. He didn't say anything, but looked at his brother with expectant eyes. Seeing no result, he looked at Li Chu.

Li Chu could only say: "Xingchen, you should ask your brother, I can't do anything about this..."

In the end, Chu Xinghan saw his younger brother almost crying just to taste some wine, and he felt that he was a bit useless.

In the end, in order to prevent his brother from being embarrassed, he agreed, but said: "You can drink, but only one drink."

After saying that, Chu Xingchen nodded continuously. In order to prevent him from drinking too much, Chu Xinghan poured him some wine himself.

Chu Xingchen was not in a hurry. He first sniffed it, and then took small sips. Li Chu and Chu Xinghan had already drunk two cups before he was willing to finish this one...

Seeing him like this, Li Chu and Chu Xinghan couldn't help but laugh.

And something even more unexpected happened. Not to mention Li Chu, even Chu Xinghan was stunned. As they were chatting, they saw Chu Xingchen's face gradually flushed because he had drunk alcohol for the first time. Then he fell directly on the table... Yes, there was no sign at all. The few of them were still chatting and laughing the previous second, and the next second, he collapsed...

Li Chu and Chu Xinghan were startled at first, but soon they heard the sound of even breathing, and from time to time they would say, "It tastes good, I want more!"

The two of them felt relieved and came down. It turned out that it was nothing else but drunk?

Chu Xinghan couldn't help but hold his forehead and said, "Father, Mother, and I can all drink, but how come this kid is so drunk after just one glass? How shameful! I should have stopped him from drinking earlier. Now, if Father finds out when he gets home, it'll be all over!"

Li Chu first comforted him: "It's good this way. After all, this way we know that he is not a drinker. He can either choose to practice or stop drinking..." After that, he drank another glass.
