Dugu Jingyao is reborn as Li Chu's beloved

After going back and forth several times, Dugu Jingyao seemed to have gotten used to it. Li Chu would always stay and do it a few more times every night, so gradually she didn't feel as tired as before.

Today is the third day since the two concubines got married, and they have to go back to their parents' homes. However, there is only one Li Chu, so he doesn't go to either family to avoid favoritism.

In addition, today is the day Zheng Wan enters the mansion, so it is even less likely that the groom Li Chu will go to other mansions.

Cui Caiping and Li Wanqing did not want to get involved today, and in fact, it had nothing to do with them. The only person Zheng Wan was meeting on the day she entered the palace was the princess, and they didn't even need to show up, so they would not make themselves unhappy. It would be better for them to go home and reunite with their family.

Inside the Prince Guangping's mansion, because there were only three days left, the red silk and red lanterns were still hanging. After all, taking them down and putting them up again would take quite a while.

In Dugu Jingyao's bedroom, the two of them had gotten up early today and had a morning exercise together, exchanging swordsmanship. This attracted the maids in Wangyue Pavilion and the servants outside to stop and watch. After the exercise, they received a round of applause.

The two men smiled at each other when they heard the applause, and then they each took the handkerchief to wipe the sweat off their face. After wiping, Li Chu pretended to be serious and glanced around and said, "Don't you have to work anymore?" Although he said this, there was a smile in his eyes.

Therefore, these maids and servants were not too scared. They just bowed and took their leave. After Li Chu brought Dugu Jingyao into the house, they gathered in groups of three or five and whispered, "Your Highness and the Princess are such a perfect match." "Yes, yes, they are simply a perfect match!" and other envious words.

After the two people in the inner room washed up, Dugu Jingyao personally changed Li Chu's clothes and helped him comb his hair.

Li Chu, on the other hand, was enjoying this moment. As Dugu Jingyao helped him put on his clothes, he said, "Ayao, you seem to be in good physical condition today. It seems that I will have to work harder in the future."

Dugu Jingyao seemed to be used to Li Chu's teasing, so she walked behind him, deliberately tightened her belt and said, "You should let me go tonight. After all, today is the day you take a concubine, and I can't always monopolize you."

After saying that, he muttered softly: "Although... I really want to..."

However, the room was very quiet, so Li Chu still heard it. After the belt was tied, Li Chu turned around and held Dugu Jingyao's shoulders and said, "Since you want to do it, then do it. Don't be so restrained."

Dugu Jingyao blushed at Li Chu's words and said, "Forget it, forget it. There's still a lot of time to go. One or two days won't make a difference."

After finishing for Li Chu, Dugu Jingyao drove Li Chu out and said, "You can go out first after you finish packing. I haven't finished packing yet."

Li Chu pretended to be disappointed and said, "A Yao is chasing me away?"

Dugu Jingyao couldn't help but laugh and said, "It's getting late. Zheng Wan should be here soon, and I haven't packed yet! Get out now!"

After saying that, Dugu Jingyao pushed her out without Li Chu having any chance to explain. Li Chu smiled helplessly and shook his head. Without saying anything else, he went to the front yard. Looking at the time, he knew that he should have picked up someone from Zheng's house.

Dugu Jingyao did not wear the "domineering queen makeup" today, but a more elegant one. She chose a green skirt and did not wear complicated jewelry. She just chose some simple accessories and added the hairpin made by Li Chu for her.

After packing up, he headed towards the main hall.

In the Cui Mansion, Cui Caiping was somewhat patient when she returned home and saw her father, but when Lady Han Guo brought her back to her courtyard, she could no longer hold back her tears after just a few words.

Mrs. Han Guo was naturally heartbroken. She hugged Cui Caiping and said, "My son, what's wrong? Are you being bullied?"

So Cui Caiping choked up and recounted what had happened in the palace in the past two days.

Lady Han Guo was furious and asked, "What? Li Wanqing has already gone to bed with him, but you haven't? How could Li Chu humiliate you like this?"

Cui Caiping sobbed, "Zheng Wan is coming into the mansion today. I'm afraid she'll sleep with me tonight, and I won't. That would be so embarrassing!"

Madam Han Guo thought for a moment and said, "Let's see what happens today. Don't irritate Li Chu again. After all, it's the day he takes a concubine. If he goes to Dugu Jingyao, you can still try to stop him, but if he goes to Zheng Wan, you can't stop him."

Cui Caiping was dissatisfied and asked, "Why? She's just a young lady, should I give way to her?"

Madam Han Guo poked Cui Caiping's stubborn head and said, "You are so foolish. A little impatience can ruin a big plan, don't you understand? There is still a long time to go. When you are able to serve the emperor in bed, I will prepare a secret recipe for conceiving a child for you. Drink it in advance. If you give birth to a boy, Li Chu will naturally value you more."

Upon hearing this, Cui Caiping wiped her tears with a handkerchief, a slight smile appeared on her face as she said, "It has to be you, mother. It's Ping'er who was too anxious."

After that, the two of them turned to talk about other topics.

At the Li Mansion, Li Mi and Madam Li had been waiting at the door for a long time. When Madam Li saw that it was the carriage from Prince Guangping's Mansion, she was so excited that she almost cried.

Li Wanqing missed her parents, but she tried to control her longing and got out of the car and bowed politely. Then Madam Li took Li Wanqing's arm and entered the mansion.

When they arrived at the main hall, Madam Li saw that her daughter looked unwell, so she asked, "Wan'er, why do you look unwell? Did you not get enough rest, or did someone bully you?"

Li Mi immediately interrupted Madam Li: "Madam, please be careful with your words. Your Highness is a gentleman, and the Princess is virtuous. How could they bully Wan'er?"

Upon hearing this, Li Wanqing smiled and said, "Mother is worrying too much. She probably woke up early today because she wanted to go home and see Mom and Dad earlier."

Madam Li was unhappy with Li Mi's siding with outsiders, but even if His Highness and the Princess treated her daughter poorly, did she really have to go to their house to argue? Obviously, that wouldn't work, so she asked, "As long as Wan'er isn't being bullied, I'm glad. How do His Highness and the Princess treat you?"

Li Wanqing told Li Mi and Madam Li the truth about what had happened in the past two days.

Upon hearing this, Madam Li said, "That's fine. As long as His Highness and the Princess are on your side, that's fine. But Cui Caiping is going too far. She relies on her favored aunt and uncle to not take others seriously!"

However, Li Wanqing also said, "Don't worry, mother. I will be careful in the future. The princess is very kind and honest. The day after the night with her, she told me the truth. His Highness and the princess have discussed that they want a legitimate son first before allowing us to have children. So after the night with her, His Highness's guard Feng Shengyi will deliver the contraceptive soup. However, I secretly sent someone to check the residue in the contraceptive soup. It is relatively mild and will not harm the body."

Although Li Mi felt sorry for his daughter, it was understandable. After all, the hierarchy between legitimate and illegitimate children in the royal family was still important. Otherwise, it would be suspected of fratricide. So he said, "Wan'er, don't worry. His Highness and the Princess are both trustworthy people. You are still young, and it would be better for your health if you give birth a little later."

Upon hearing this, Madam Li's originally somewhat angry expression softened slightly. "Your father has a point," she said. "When the princess gives birth to a legitimate son, I'll find you a good prescription to nourish your body. If you can have a son, His Highness will value you even more."

Li Wanqing actually thought so too. Since she couldn't give birth to a first son, she would give birth to a second one. Or when the prince is born and the next one comes, the first son born at that time would generally be regarded as a noble son. At that time, it would depend on each person's ability.

Back at Prince Guangping's mansion, Zheng Wan had already arrived at the gate. Amidst the singing of the bridesmaids, she stepped into the main hall, bowed to Li Chu and Dugu Jingyao, and was escorted back to Luting Pavilion. It was the concubine banquet, and the two of them tried hard to maintain a smile as they greeted the guests.

In the evening, when the banquet was over, Li Chu was forced to drink a lot of wine again. Dugu Jingyao ordered people to prepare sobering soup for him. She also drank a lot herself and drank a bowl.

After repeated dissuasion from Dugu Jingyao, Li Chu was finally driven to Luting Pavilion.

Cui Caiping and Li Wanqing also returned to the palace after the banquet was over.

Although Li Chu was reluctant, he still went to Luting Pavilion and completed the remaining steps. He then reluctantly had sex with Zheng Wan and almost fell asleep.

But as to why they had clearly promised He Lingyi to enter the mansion before, but not this time, it was very simple. Because of the crime she committed, the two of them could naturally ignore it, but the Dali Temple could not. She was also on the list of people to be beheaded, and the grass on her grave was probably two feet high now.
