Dugu Jingyao is reborn as Li Chu's beloved

Dugu Yan thought it was Concubine Wu. Although he was also surprised, he said sternly, "Is it you, bitch?" Concubine Wu shook her hands like rattles and said, "No, it's not me, it's not me!" Dugu Yan actually thought it was impossible for her to be like this. After all, she was probably the stupidest of the three women. So he said, "You know him." Concubine Wu shook her head first, then nodded. Dugu Yan was very upset when he saw her like this: "You nod and shake your head, what do you mean?" Concubine Wu said, "I saw this man coming out of the Madam's courtyard one night after dinner when I was strolling in the garden. I thought he was the manager of one of the shops in the mansion. After all, the mansion was managed by Madam, so I didn't take it seriously."

Hearing this, An Jialan thought: This is bad. I can only quickly accuse Wu of slandering her. Panicked, she slammed the table and stood up, "You bitch, stop slandering me!" Then she knelt and kowtowed to Dugu Xin, Dugu Yan, and Dugu Jingyao, saying, "It was this bitch who slandered me. It has nothing to do with me!" But she didn't expect that her son had also seen this person in and out of her yard.

Dugu Xin, Dugu Yan, Dugu Jingyao, and even Dugu Moyan all looked at her with strange eyes. The thief had been silent since entering. It was Dugu Xin who had ordered Xunfeng to seal his acupuncture points first, but now that it was his turn to speak, Dugu Xin said, "Xunfeng, release it." The man wanted to blame the concubine surnamed Xu, but just as he was about to speak, he remembered Xunfeng's method of torture that left no trace. He couldn't just die, so unlike An Jialan's expectations, the thief directly said, "It was Madam Dugu who asked me to kidnap the whole family!"

An Jialan was stunned by these words. How could this be different from her own arrangements? But she didn't have time to think about it. She could only point at the man and say, "Don't talk nonsense! When did I ever let you kidnap someone?" The thief replied, "I still have the silver you gave me and the things you asked me to deliver to the palace on time!" Dugu Yan was about to speak when Dugu Jingyao said, "Shijian, have someone bring the things up!"

Soon, a servant arrived with a wooden box and opened it, revealing silver bills and several small bottles. Dugu Xin slammed his teacup on the table and said, "Sister-in-law, I don't know how Yao'er and I have wronged you to such an extent that you would want to harm me!" Seeing the situation was hopeless, An Jialan sat down on the ground with tears streaming down her face, eyes closed. "I don't want to do that either. I'm thinking about the Dugu family too. Are Yao'er and Yue'er going to inherit the title of King of Yunnan?"

Dugu Yan heard this and slapped her in the face: "You stupid woman! Did you know that my elder brother had already told me that he would adopt our Yan'er, and that Yan'er would inherit the title after my elder brother's death?" After hearing Dugu Yan's words, everyone except Dugu Xin and Dugu Jingyao, who knew the truth, was stunned. An Jialan also laughed and murmured softly: "Haha, it turns out that I was doing something unnecessary."

Dugu Xin ignored her and said, "No matter what the reason, my sister-in-law has already committed the crime of harming others. Apart from anything else, you poisoned the princess who was personally appointed by His Majesty. For this reason alone, she cannot escape punishment!" Although Dugu Yan said that An Jialan was a vicious woman, he still loved and respected her in his heart, so he pleaded, "Brother, although Jialan did something wrong, she did not cause irreparable harm to Yaoer after all. For my sake, can you give her a lighter punishment? I will definitely discipline her well!" Dugu Xin snorted coldly, "Second brother, didn't you hear what I just said? She murdered not only my daughter and your niece, but also the princess of the current dynasty. Even if she is brought to the government office, she will be sentenced severely!"

Just then, a man arrived and said, "Your Highness, you have a point, but we are family after all. Can you please be more lenient?" An Jialan was delighted to hear the voice. It was her father. It was none other than An Jialan's father, An Aoxuan. Seeing An Jialan even consider calling for help, Dugu Jingyao thought he wasn't too foolish.
