Dugu Jingyao is reborn as Li Chu's beloved

Chu Xinghan came to Li Chu and said, "Cousin, you are finally here. I have been waiting for you for two days. Mother said you would arrive in these two days." Li Chu followed Chu Xinghan and rode slowly on horseback. If you ask why Li Ruo didn't come out, it was because they had been on the road for a long time. She had to ride a horse at first, and later she was too tired, so she returned to the carriage and was sleeping soundly at this time.

Li Chu said, "It's not easy for me to go on a long journey. I took Ruo'er with me and played and walked along the way, which delayed me for some time. But fortunately, there is still time." Chu Xinghan joked, "I didn't expect that my cousin is also a playful person. But fortunately, Princess Yi'an's birthday is still a few days away. I can have a good rest today and tomorrow. After I have rested, I will take you around the city." Li Chu smiled and agreed. They chatted for a while on the way and soon arrived at the Zhennan Marquis Mansion.

Because Chu Xinghan had sent someone back to the mansion to report in advance, the wife of the Marquis of Zhennan and the Marquis of Zhennan were already waiting at the door. Li Chu and Chu Xinghan dismounted, and the Marquis of Zhennan and his wife immediately came out with their servants to greet them. Just as the couple was about to pay their respects to Li Chu, Li Chu personally helped them up and said, "Aunt and uncle are family, so there's no need to be polite. We're here incognito this time, so there's no need to be formal. Just call me Chu'er."

The Marquis of Zhennan immediately agreed. His wife, noticing that Li Chu was the only one present, thought their plans had changed, so she asked, "Chu'er, why are you here alone? Where's Ruo'er? Your mother wrote to say she's here too." Li Chu smiled and said, "She insisted on riding a horse, but ended up getting too tired and got back in the carriage. I guess she's still asleep."

The wife of the Marquis of Zhennan also covered her mouth and smiled: "It seems that he is also a naughty boy. I think he can play with the children in my family." Then she called her youngest son and daughter who were following behind her: "Chen'er, Yu'er, come and meet your cousin."

(The wife of Marquis Zhennan has two sons and one daughter. The eldest son Chu Xinghan is 12 years old, the second son Chu Xingchen is 9 years old, and the eldest daughter Chu Xinyu is 6 years old.) The two little ones saluted Li Chu in a proper manner: "How are you, cousin." After this greeting, Li Ruo in the car woke up from her sleep. The maid Chunyu looked at her princess and said, "Princess, are you awake? We seem to have arrived at the Marquis Zhennan's Mansion." Li Ruo stretched and then reacted: "Ah? Why didn't you call me! Help me fix my bun!" Chunyu quickly fixed Li Ruo's bun at Li Ruo's hurried urging before getting off the car.

Because she had been riding a horse, she had not changed out of her disguised clothes. Li Ruo quickly walked over to Li Chu's side, her face a little red, but she saluted to the Marquis of Zhennan and his wife without any hesitation: "Aunt, uncle, I'm so sorry, Ruo'er overslept." The wife of the Marquis of Zhennan said: "It's okay, it's okay. You must be tired after such a long journey. Let's go into the mansion first and talk inside." So the few of them entered the mansion of the Marquis of Zhennan, surrounded by servants.

Elsewhere, at the Prince of Yunnan's Mansion, Si Jian was reporting today's situation to Dugu Jingyao. "It seems Princess Yining didn't go out with the Young Master and Prince Chu today. Instead, Princess Yining went directly to the Dugu Mansion. Because it's safer there, I had our people waiting outside the mansion." Dugu Jingyao was puzzled. Logically, Chu Xinghan liked Yue'er very much and should have done everything possible to interact with her. How could he be absent? Perhaps he really had something to do? Never mind, why think so much? At this moment, Dugu Jingyue brought people to Banmengxuan.
