Dugu Jingyao is reborn as Li Chu's beloved

Although Dugu Xin felt proud after hearing this, he also wondered if Li Chu had any feelings for his daughter. However, judging from his daughter's behavior, she seemed to have some feelings for Li Chu. Even if that was the case, it wouldn't work. He had to investigate carefully!

Dugu Xin said, "My dear nephew, to be honest, I only have these two daughters. Although Yao'er is a little naughty and different from ordinary girls, and likes to wield swords and guns, I actually love her the most. Mo Yan knows this!" Dugu Moyan nodded and agreed, "That's right, my uncle almost dotes on Yao'er to the sky!"

Li Chu smiled faintly and said, "Oh? Really? Why is it that when we went out for an outing together the other day, I felt that Jingyao was calm, composed, and methodical, even better than me."

Dugu Moyan thought for a moment and said, "But what Your Highness said is indeed right. Since she fell into the water, Yao'er seems to have become a different person. She is no longer as noisy as before! Now Yao'er seems to be more experienced than her uncle!"

Although Dugu Xin also felt that what they said made sense, he had actually made some guesses and had tested it himself, but it was indeed Yao'er. Whether it was the sword skills she practiced or the things she had done in the past, she knew everything about it and it was impossible for her to be replaced by someone else, so he just thought that Yao'er had become mature and stable!

Dugu Moyan noticed something was wrong with Li Chu: "Your Highness, you don't like Yao'er, do you? You praise her like a flower! Haha!" Although Li Chu appeared calm, when Dugu Moyan mentioned that he liked Jingyao, he seemed a little flustered. Li Chu thought to himself: Do I really like Jingyao? Then he denied it, "No, no, no, I just admire her!"

Seeing that Li Chu hadn't said anything for a long time, Dugu Xin thought that Mo Yan must have hit the nail on the head, so he asked tentatively, "Nephew, do you really like Yao'er?" Li Chu replied, "Uncle, I... I just admire Jingyao!" Dugu Xin thought to himself: If you admit that you like Yao'er, I will respect you as a man! Since you don't admit it, then give up the chance to get close to Yao'er!

Dugu Xin asked again, "Do you really not like Yao'er?" Li Chu blushed a little when asked. Li Chu felt that this was a feeling he had never had before. After thinking about it, he realized that he had, no, he had, a girl who was drowning when he was a child. He also felt a sense of déjà vu in Jingyao and inexplicably wanted to get close to her. Could it be that he really liked Jingyao?

Dugu Xin knew from seeing his face blush that this guy was probably really in love with Yao'er! So he said, "Nephew, whether you like Yao'er or not is irrelevant. I am interested in your person. Why don't you stay for lunch?"

Li Chu quickly returned to his normal state and said, "That's great, thank you in advance, uncle!" Dugu Xin said, "These are all trivial matters. Mo Yan, go talk to the kitchen and ask them to prepare a few more of their specialties and warm up some wine!"

Dugu Moyan thought to himself, "Oh no! Uncle is going to drink with His Royal Highness the Prince of Guangping." He silently prayed for Li Chu. After all, his uncle's alcohol tolerance was such that ten people with average alcohol tolerance would be lucky to outdrink him! Then he went out and ordered the kitchen to prepare food and wine.

The two remaining people in the main hall finally settled down to business. Dugu Xin, far away in Yunnan, could obtain some intelligence about the previous dynasty, but it was still far away. So he asked, "My dear nephew, my place is remote, and I haven't been to the court for a long time. However, I heard that the Crown Princess was almost framed, but it was eventually cleared."

Li Chu said, "What my uncle said is true. This incident did happen, but the culprit has been apprehended. It's Zhang Liangdi. No, it should be Lady Zhang now. It was her family who wanted to frame my mother. Fortunately, Lord Guo Ziyi found evidence!"

Dugu Xin exclaimed, "Oh? Guo Ziyi? When did he learn to investigate cases?" Li Chu replied, "I heard him say it was because someone was giving him advice." Dugu Xin finally understood. "No wonder. I remember when he was under my command, although he was good at military tactics and smart, he wasn't proficient in this area! I wonder who this expert is?"
