Dugu Jingyao is reborn as Li Chu's beloved

In the evening, when night fell, Li Chu took Dugu Jingyao away from the Palace of Prince of Yunnan. After returning to the Palace of Prince of Guangping, Dugu Jingyao took off her maid costume and changed back into her normal princess costume.

Li Chu first went to the study to arrange another matter that Dugu Jingyao had told him, and then went to Wangyuexuan after the arrangement was completed.

At this time, Dugu Jingyao had already washed up, changed into pajamas, and put on an outer coat. She was leaning on the chaise longue reading a book.

After Li Chu entered, Shi Jian and Si Jian tactfully withdrew. Approaching Dugu Jingyao, Li Chu slowly sat down beside her and asked, "Have you taken out the silver needle?"

Dugu Jingyao nodded and said, "You still don't believe in Lin Zhi's medical skills?"

Li Chu said, "Of course I believe it, but it must be very painful to remove the silver needle from your body, right?"

Dugu Jingyao nodded first, then shook her head. Li Chu was confused: "Does it hurt or not?"

Dugu Jingyao said, "It definitely still hurts a little, but now I don't have to worry about controlling the needles anymore. If you think about it, that little bit of pain is worth it."

Li Chu still felt a little distressed, leaned over and hugged Dugu Jingyao and said: "Ayao, you have suffered."

Dugu Jingyao smiled and said, "It's nothing. If we can really stop Shi Siming and his men from rebelling, not only will we avoid war, but we'll also save lives, right?"

Li Chu felt even more distressed for Dugu Jingyao's understanding of the bigger picture: "Although I am a prince and should love the people of the world, I love one person more."

After hearing Li Chu's confession, Dugu Jingyao was deeply moved. She couldn't help but kiss Li Chu on the cheek lightly.

Li Chu looked at Dugu Jingyao, his eyes gradually becoming hot, thinking: Yesterday, there was a silver needle in A Yao's body, and I couldn't act rashly. I didn't expect that today she would...

Dugu Jingyao seemed to be melted by Li Chu's gaze, but this time, it was not Li Chu who took the initiative, but Dugu Jingyao kissed Li Chu directly.

Li Chu was made even more itchy by this sudden action, so he deepened the kiss and then "executed" Dugu Jingyao on the imperial concubine couch...

Shi Jian and Si Jian, who were standing at the door, blushed when they heard the noise from inside. About half an hour passed before the noise gradually died down.

On the other side, in the Shi Mansion, Shi Siming has been coaxing Xin Yunrou to sign the divorce papers in the past two days. The family just came back from shopping and bought a lot of things, all of which were paid for by Shi Siming.

After returning to Xin Yunrou's yard and washing up, Shi Siming suddenly hugged Xin Yunrou from behind and said, "Rou'er, I'm so lucky to have you as my wife."

Although Xin Yunrou was simple, she was not stupid. How could she not know that Shi Siming's kindness to her in the past two days was just to make her willingly sign the divorce agreement? So she rolled her eyes but said, "I am also very happy to have met you in this life."

Shi Siming felt that the groundwork had been laid over the past two days, so he released Xin Yunrou's hand, turned her body around and said, "Rou'er, for the sake of our future, let's pretend to divorce and deceive the princess first. After that, I will marry you and let you sit in that honorable position."

Xin Yunrou acted very touched, but inwardly she was about to roll her eyes. She said, "Okay, Ah Ming, I believe you. But to prevent you from changing your mind, why don't you write a clause in the divorce agreement that you give the children to me first. When you can marry me, I will definitely bring the two children back with you. What do you think?"

Shi Siming hesitated for a moment, then thought that Xin Yunrou just wanted a guarantee. He had originally wanted to pretend to divorce her, so it was fine. He hugged Xin Yunrou again and said, "Okay, let's do as Rou'er wishes!"

Then he asked someone to bring paper and pen, and Shi Siming wrote the divorce agreement on the spot and signed it.

Xin Yunrou confirmed it again and again, and only signed hesitantly after Shi Siming's repeated assurances.

The moment she signed the document, Xin Yunrou felt relieved. After all, what Shi Siming was going to do would result in the confiscation of property and the extermination of the entire family if she was not careful. Now that the child was with her, he should not be affected.

In this way, the two of them slept in their clothes, each with their own thoughts.

At the Shi Mansion in the suburbs, after Yu Da returned, Zhang Jinxin felt that he could not just sit there and wait for death. He had to put the blame on Yu Da and Qian San. Since that was the case, he had to make the matter a reality.

She whispered a few words into the ear of her maid Ling'er, and Ling'er said, "Yes, I will do it later."

Just when Yu Da and Qian San thought they had escaped danger, Ling'er knocked on their doors. Yu Da asked warily, "Who is it?"

Ling'er said: "It's me, Ling'er beside the master."

Yu Da heard that it was someone close to the master, so he went to open the door. After opening the door, Yu Da asked, "Miss Ling'er, does the master have any instructions?"

Ling'er said with a smile on her face: "Nothing, it's just that the master wants us to look again to see if the person who came here left any clues."

Although Yu Da felt that something was wrong, he couldn't put his finger on it, so he said, "In that case, I'll take the girl with me."

Ling'er thought: Well, then I'll solve them one by one, so that I don't have to team up with two people and make it difficult for me to deal with them.

Yu Da took Ling'er to the door of the room where Dugu Jingyao and Liu Jingyue were imprisoned. Ling'er took out a dagger without saying a word. Just when she was about to succeed, Yu Da dodged it and turned around and asked, "Miss Ling'er, what are you doing?"

Seeing that she had failed, Ling'er stopped worrying about it. She had to complete the task assigned to her by Zhang Jinxin, so that she could survive.

Ling'er sneered and said, "Oh, of course I want you to die. Not only you, but your good brother must die too!" Then she continued to attack with a dagger without saying a word. Yu Da dodged several times in a row, but was eventually defeated by Ling'er and was stabbed several times.

After seeing Yu Da fall to the ground and close his eyes, he walked over and touched his nose to confirm that he was not breathing. Then he pretended to be anxious and went to look for Qian San.

When Qian San saw the blood on Ling'er's body, he asked, "Miss Ling'er, what happened? Where is my elder brother?"

Ling'er pretended to be scared: "Someone just attacked me and Brother Yu. Brother Yu was stabbed in order to save me. I quickly ran over to ask you for help. Brother Qian, please come with me to take a look!"

When Qian San heard this, he followed Ling'er without saying a word. When Qian San saw Yu Da lying in a pool of blood, tears immediately flowed down his face. He knelt beside Yu Da and touched his nose to check his breath. He was about to run to call the court doctor, but unexpectedly, Ling'er fell to the ground behind him.

Looking again, there was a man in black standing behind Ling'er. This man was none other than the secret guard of Prince Guangping's palace. Yu Da, who was lying on the ground, also opened his eyes and stood up.

Qian San's pupils trembled with shock at the scene before him. He asked, "Brother, are you okay?"

Yu Da said, "Don't worry, your brother is fine, this blood is just a blood clot." Qian San was confused when he heard it, and the next scene made him even more confused. The "Yu Da" in front of him actually tore off his face and turned into another person.

This person was none other than Feng Shengyi. He patted Qian San on the shoulder and said, "Don't worry, I have already rescued your Yu Da in advance."

Feng Shengyi then walked over to look at Ling'er lying on the ground, and then touched her face. Sure enough, there was something strange. He tore off the skin of this "Ling'er" without hesitation, and sure enough, underneath this skin was a familiar face - He Lingyi.

Another secret guard who knocked He Lingyi down asked Feng Shengyi, "Sir, what should we do with her?"

Feng Shengyi chuckled and said, "Humph, since it's her, then let's do as Your Highness wishes and sever her tendons. This way, she will suffer more than death."

The royal secret guards were indeed extraordinary. They did not ask for reasons and just followed orders. In no time, they cut the tendons of He Lingyi's hands and feet.

Seeing that everything was almost packed, he said to Qian San, "Qian San, let's go. Your brother is waiting for you." So the two of them took Qian San and the unconscious He Lingyi to the roof and left the Shi Mansion in the suburbs.

If Liu Jingyue knew the whole process, she would probably sigh and say, "It turns out that the ancient people were all drama queens!"
