Dugu Jingyao is reborn as Li Chu's beloved

Shi Siming felt that Mrs. Shi might be a little worried about his proposal, so he decided to prepare a surprise for her in the next two days, and then talk about the divorce agreement after she was coaxed.

The next day, Mrs. Shi took care of all the affairs before Shi Siming went to court as usual. The only difference was that Mrs. Shi did not greet him with a smile as usual.

Shi Siming knew that it would not be easy for her husband to accept the divorce, so she comforted Mrs. Shi with a few words during breakfast.

Upon hearing this, although Madam Shi was simple-minded, she was not a fool. She said to Shi Siming, "Even if you can get rid of the Yunnan Palace and not marry the current Princess Guangping, there are many women of nobler birth than me. By then..."

Shi Siming understood immediately. His wife was afraid that if they divorced now, he would no longer care about her after he succeeded. He laughed heartily and said, "Don't worry, Rou'er. You and I have been married for many years. I will never leave you alone, no matter what."

Seeing that his wife was still a little unhappy, he said, "Rou'er, don't think too much. Why don't you invite some friends to your house, or go and have a chat with your sisters instead of thinking about it here."

Mrs. Shi nodded and said nothing. Seeing that it was getting late, Shi Siming went to court.

As for Mrs. Shi, after Shi Siming went to court, she returned to her room, closed the door and did not allow anyone to disturb her.

Caiyun was still a little worried. After all, in the past, no matter what happened, Mrs. Shi would never lock herself in the room. But she did not dare to disobey Mrs. Shi's orders.

He could only wait anxiously outside the door, thinking that if the lady didn't come out for too long, he would break in even if he had to be punished.

Fortunately, she was overthinking it. About two quarters of an hour later, Mrs. Shi called Caiyun: "Caiyun, come in."

When Caiyun heard Mrs. Shi's call, she hurried into the house.

After entering the house, Madam Shi handed Caiyun two letters and instructed her carefully: "Send one to the Xin Mansion and one to the Guo Mansion quickly! Also, go call the secret guards. I have something to tell them."

Caiyun received the order, and although she was confused, she still agreed and prepared to do it. She first sent a message to the secret guards, and then went to the Guo Mansion and the Xin Mansion.

On the other side, at the Shi Mansion, Mrs. Shi met with the secret guard in the flower hall.

The secret guard rushed forward and saluted respectfully, then asked, "I wonder why Madam wants to see me here?"

Mrs. Shi sat at the head of the table, sipped her tea, and said, "Yesterday, I asked you to follow the master to that place. Are you sure you can lead your men to rescue the woman you saw being kidnapped?"

The secret guard answered truthfully, "It seems that there are not many guards in the mansion in the open. I wonder if there are more in the dark. Moreover, although I went there, I didn't see where the woman was imprisoned. So I may need to go and investigate again. If there are really no people in the dark, and if I can find out where the woman is imprisoned, then I can determine whether other people's support is needed."

Madam Shi nodded slightly and said, "Okay, then you can go check it out again tonight. If you need support, tell me and I'll find someone to help you, but you have to rescue the person for me!"

The secret guard said respectfully, "Yes, ma'am, I will prepare it right away."

After completing the instructions, Caiyun also delivered the two letters, but she stayed at the Xin Mansion for a while longer, waiting until Mrs. Xin finished reading the letters before returning home.

After returning to the Shi Mansion, Caiyun went straight to Mrs. Shi's courtyard.

Seeing Caiyun coming back, Mrs. Shi asked, "Caiyun is back. Is everything settled?"

Caiyun nodded and replied, "Yes, Madam, I have already delivered the things. Our Madam has something else for me to tell you."

Mrs. Shi asked curiously, "Oh? What did mother say?"

Caiyun told Madam Shi everything she had said: "Our Madam said that since you have made your decision, Madam and Master will definitely support you with all their strength. Even if you end up falling out with Shi Siming, we are not afraid. It's just a pity that you have to go through pain, and the young master and young lady will have to go through the pain of separation from their flesh and blood."

Madam Shi said, "It's better to know the truth now than to be kept in the dark by Shi Siming! As for Yi'er and Qing'er, we can let them choose whether to follow me or Shi Siming..."

On the other side, Mrs. Guo received the letter and opened it. After reading it, she was overjoyed to know that Xin Yunrou, also known as Mrs. Shi, wanted to save Dugu Jingyao. She then wrote back: "Rou'er, if you need anything, please tell me. I will do my best to help you. I will make sure that your wish comes true and that you stay away from the unfaithful man."

After writing the letter, Mrs. Guo asked someone to deliver it to the Shi Mansion. After Mrs. Shi received the letter.

When I saw Mrs. Guo's reply, I felt a warm feeling in my heart. Fortunately, she still has her family and close friends. Then I felt relieved.

After Madam Guo delivered the letter to the Shi residence, she told Guo Ziyi about the matter when he returned home. Guo Ziyi was delighted to hear this, as this meant their plan was one-third successful. He hugged Madam Guo and said, "My dear wife! If our plan succeeds this time, you will be the first to achieve it!"

Madam Guo blushed and retorted, "Master, what are you talking about? This isn't just for you, Master, but also for the Guangping Palace. Even more so, it might even save the people from disaster! Naturally, I have no choice but to do it."

Guo Ziyi tightened his grip and said, "Madam, wait for me to come back for dinner tonight. I will first explain this matter to the Prince of Guangping and the Prince of Yunnan so that they can be prepared."

Mrs. Guo naturally agreed to everything, so Guo Ziyi secretly invited Dugu Xin and Li Chu to a secret house. When they arrived, Guo Ziyi bowed to them.

Dugu Xin sat down and said, "Ziyi, what's the matter that brought us here in such a hurry?"

Guo Ziyi said, "The fish has taken the bait!"

Li Chu didn't expect things to go so smoothly, so he asked, "When do we start?"

Guo Ziyi said, "It's estimated that within the next two days, they have already sent people to investigate the situation. I have also had people set up some traps in the dark, so that we can send people to go together just in case."

Li Chu finally smiled and said, "Great! If this succeeds, you two will be the first to achieve this. I will definitely speak well of you in front of Grandfather Emperor and Father."

Guo Ziyi said modestly: "This is my humble duty."

Dugu Xin smiled and said, "You don't need to be modest, just accept what you have to endure!"

Guo Ziyi then said, "Then I would like to thank you, Your Highnesses!"

Soon, several people dispersed and went in different directions.

At night, Madam Shi's secret guards set out again to investigate the situation. There were about three or four of them, climbing walls and climbing rooftops, searching for Dugu Jingyao according to the map they had drawn up earlier.

When they went there, they found that there seemed to be more guards tonight than yesterday, so they became more cautious.

They started a search centered on the main room where they saw Dugu Jingyao yesterday, and finally found Dugu Jingyao's trace after two quarters of an hour. However, they also found another woman in the same room, who was none other than Liu Jingyue.

However, they had never seen this person before, so they didn't know if he needed to be rescued. But that didn't matter. They would go back and report to the lady, and she would make the decision.

After they marked their location, they prepared to retreat. However, they were ambushed on their way back after leaving Shi Mansion. The enemy's martial arts were no worse than theirs, and there were quite a few of them.

However, these people did not kill them. They probably intended to capture them alive, which gave them the opportunity to escape successfully.

Seeing that they escaped successfully, the people in the dark smiled with satisfaction. That's right, Mrs. Shi would probably ask them for help and reinforcements, so that they could legitimately insert their own people to prevent any accidents from happening.
