Dugu Jingyao is reborn as Li Chu's beloved

Li Chu hurried back to the palace and walked towards the study at top speed. Once inside, he walked straight to the desk, grabbed the brush on the table, dipped it in ink, and began to write furiously.

He frowned slightly, his expression solemn, as if pouring all his thoughts into his pen. Soon, a letter with sincere words and beautiful handwriting was completed.

Li Chu gently blew away the ink that had not yet dried on the paper, then carefully rolled the letter paper into a small paper tube and carefully stuffed it into a small bamboo tube prepared on the side.

After doing all this, he took a deep breath, calmed himself down, and then shouted loudly: "Feng Shengyi!" His voice was loud and urgent, instantly breaking the original tranquility in the study.

A moment later, only the sound of light footsteps could be heard approaching from afar. Soon, Feng Shengyi appeared at the door of the study. He bowed respectfully to Li Chu and asked, "Your Highness, what do you want to see me about?" His words were filled with a hint of doubt and curiosity.

Li Chu glanced at Feng Shengyi, then handed him the small bamboo tube containing the letter and instructed, "Send this letter to the Yunnan Palace immediately by carrier pigeon. There must not be any delay!"

Feng Shengyi was a bit surprised when he heard this. They had just sent a letter to the Yunnan Palace yesterday, so why were they sending another one today? And this time, they were even using an urgent method like carrier pigeons.

Despite his doubts, he knew that Li Chu was always prudent and measured in his actions, and that there must be a reason for such an arrangement. So he didn't ask any more questions, but just nodded and said "yes", then walked forward to take the small bamboo tube from Li Chu's hand, bowed again, and turned to leave the study.

After about an incense stick of time, Feng Shengyi returned to the study like a gust of wind. He came before Li Chu, bowed and reported: "Your Highness, the letter just now has been sent by carrier pigeon. Please rest assured."

At this moment, Li Chu had his eyes tightly closed, one hand gently kneading his brow, as if he was thinking about something important. After hearing Feng Shengyi's report, he nodded slightly, indicating that he understood. At the same time, he slowly opened his eyes and said, "Okay, I understand. This matter has been handled well. You can go down and rest first."

Upon hearing the order, Feng Shengyi bowed to Li Chu again, then tiptoed out of the study, fearing to disturb their prince.

The legend of the flying pigeon truly lived up to its reputation; its speed was truly astonishing! In just three days, the white pigeon carrying the important letter had arrived accurately at the Yunnan Palace.

When Dugu Jingyao received the letter delivered by carrier pigeon, she was filled with surprise and confusion. She had never imagined that the usually steady Li Chu would choose such an urgent method to contact her. Could something extremely urgent have happened?

With such doubts in mind, Dugu Jingyao carefully opened the small and exquisite bamboo tube and took out the neatly rolled letter paper.

At first, Dugu Jingyao was full of anticipation, and she couldn't wait to know what Li Chu said in the letter.

However, as she read deeper, her expression gradually grew more solemn. Her once bright eyes began to dim, replaced by increasingly dark clouds.

Shi Jian, standing nearby, had been paying close attention to her princess's expression. Seeing this, she couldn't help but feel worried. Finally, Shi Jian couldn't help but ask, "Princess, is there something wrong with Prince Guangping? Why do you look so grim?"

Dugu Jingyao did not answer Shi Jian's question immediately. She just sighed deeply, then slowly handed the letter she had finished reading to Shi Jian and said softly, "Read it for yourself, and you will understand."

Shi Jian wanted to refuse, but Dugu Jingyao asked her to read it, so she took it and quickly read it. The general meaning was: Tell Dugu Jingyao that the Crown Prince and the Crown Princess intend to give him two more people. However, Li Chu was reluctant, but being in the royal family had some constraints, so he might have to choose. However, he promised that he would not have any feelings for the remaining people and hoped that Dugu Jingyao would understand.

Dugu Jingyao could indeed understand. After all, she had experienced it once in her previous life and knew that Li Chu was under a lot of pressure. If nothing unexpected happened, he would still inherit the throne in the future. If he inherited the throne, how could there not be those beautiful women in the harem?

After reading the letter, Shi Jian looked at Dugu Jingyao with some distress and said, "Princess, you haven't even entered the family yet, and the Crown Prince and Crown Princess are already thinking about adding someone to Prince Guangping's harem. What are we going to do in the future?"

Dugu Jingyao shook her head, because she had experienced a lifetime, as long as Li Chu was still the same as in the previous life, then no matter how many women there were in the harem, they were at most tools for him to have children, and Li Chu did not have much feelings for them.

She said, "It doesn't matter. Marrying into the royal family doesn't mean I can expect them to be alone for the rest of their lives. As long as I can always have a place in his heart, it will be worth my marriage."

Shi Jian said with some distress: "The princess used to be such a carefree and carefree person, but now she has to suffer such injustice..."

Dugu Jingyao stopped Shi Jian from speaking: "Forget it, who made me fall in love with a royal descendant? This may be my fate!"

After saying that, he took out a pen and paper, wrote a reply letter, and asked Shijian to send it back to Prince Guangping's Mansion by carrier pigeon.

She was just thankful that as long as the selection was completed before they arrived in Chang'an, at least Shen Zhenzhu would not marry Li Chu, at least she and Shen Zhenzhu would not become enemies, at least Li Chu would still love her the most. This was enough, and she didn't dare to hope for anything else.
