Dugu Jingyao asked Shijian to prepare a bowl of hangover soup for Li Chu and Dugu Moyan. If it weren't for the fact that this was in the palace and Li Chu was a stranger, she would have watched the two of them drink the hangover soup with her own eyes! Although she often went to the military camp to eat, drink and practice martial arts with those soldiers, Li Chu was a little different after all, so forget it! So she ordered Shijian: "Shijian, after you deliver the hangover soup, you must watch them drink it. Remember, you must drink it!" Shijian obeyed the order and went to Dugu Moyan's room with the food box containing the hangover soup.

Shi Jian knocked on the door. Dugu Moyan asked when she saw it was Shi Jian, "Why are you here, Miss Shi Jian? Does your princess have any instructions?" Shi Jian walked in and put the food box on the table. She looked up and found Feng Shengyi there. She felt a little shy, but it passed quickly. She quickly sorted out her emotions and said to Dugu Moyan, "Look at what Master Tang said. What instructions could the princess have? It's just that Your Highness and Master Tang were forced to drink a lot by the prince, so I asked this servant to prepare some sobering soup. I'm afraid you'll have a headache after you sober up. After all, the prince's collection of wine is easy to get drunk. You should know this, Master Tang!"

Dugu Moyan thought about it and realized that it was indeed the case. At first, my uncle took me out for social events and drinking, and I always woke up with a headache. But as I drank more, I seemed to feel better now. I didn't get drunk so easily. But he still said to Shi Jian, "Okay, then thank Yao'er on behalf of His Highness and me!"

After Dugu Moyan finished speaking, he thought Shi Jian had left, but he didn't expect her to still be there. Dugu Moyan asked again, "What's wrong, Shi Jian? Is there anything else?" Shi Jian said, "Master, the princess said she was afraid you wouldn't drink the hangover soup because you didn't drink enough, so she ordered me to watch you drink it."

Dugu Moyan wondered: Is this Yao'er the worm in his stomach? She actually knew I didn't want to drink the hangover soup. Although he was puzzled, he didn't hesitate. After all, his uncle did get a headache after sobering up. So, without further argument, he drank it all in one gulp.

Shi Jian should have waited until Li Chu finished drinking before leaving, but he didn't stay. After all, he was a prince, the son of the crown prince. How could a maid like him have the right to watch him drink the hangover soup? He also knew that the royal family was afraid of assassination. Since the young master had already drunk it and there was no problem, and he had just emphasized that the prince would have a headache after sobering up after drinking too much, then Guard Feng would at most be cautious and test it for poison. For the sake of his prince's health, he would also give it to His Royal Highness the Prince of Guangping!

The facts were indeed similar to what Shi Jian had expected. The only difference was that Feng Shengyi did not test for poison. He knew that their prince was always cautious and rarely drank outside. However, he drank so much in the Yunnan Palace. He knew that the prince trusted the Dugu family very much. So, with the help of Dugu Moyan, they fed Li Chu a hangover soup. After Li Chu finished drinking the hangover soup, Dugu Moyan went to the study to find Dugu Xin, and then said goodbye, saying that he wanted to go back to the palace to rest, and Dugu Xin agreed.

Dugu Xin was still considering the possibility that Li Chu might be drunk, but what if she was just pretending? After all, weren't the royal family members the best at playing dumb? But after hearing Mo Yan say that it took two people working together to get Li Chu to drink the hangover soup, and that during the process, Li Chu kept saying, "Uncle, drink!" and then, "Uncle... Uncle, I can't drink any more!" It didn't seem like she was pretending, so Dugu Xin finally realized that Li Chu was probably speaking the truth after drinking!

Dugu Xin felt that it was pointless to think so much now. He would wait until the boy sobered up before talking to him. He was afraid that he would deny it after sobering up! Forget it, he should go and rest for a while, so Dugu Xin also went back to the bedroom to take a nap.

It wasn't until late afternoon that Li Chu slowly woke up. Seeing the unfamiliar scene before him, he thought he had been kidnapped. However, seeing Feng Shengyi made him feel more at ease. Li Chu said in a slightly hoarse voice, "Feng Shengyi, what time is it now?"

When Feng Shengyi saw that their prince had finally woken up, he almost suspected that the Dugu family had added something to the wine or the sobering soup. How come no one else was in trouble while his prince slept for so long?

Feng Shengyi heard Li Chu's hoarse voice and poured him some water, saying, "Your Highness, it's already noon." He then poured the water and handed it to Li Chu. Li Chu felt his throat soothe after drinking the water, but he still felt a little dizzy. He said, "This alcohol is quite strong. I slept for so long!"

Feng Shengyi said, "Isn't it? I see that Prince Yunnan and Young Master Dugu are fine, and the princess sobered up quickly. I thought they had drugged Your Highness's wine!"

Li Chu also caught a glimpse of the details and asked, "You said the princess is sober? Ruo'er was also drunk?" Feng Shengyi realized that he seemed to have let something slip: "No, no, Your Highness heard it wrong. I said that the princess woke up quickly because she was a little tired from playing in the afternoon and took a short nap in the palace."

Li Chu knew Feng Shengyi was trying hard to make amends, so he said to him, "Feng Shengyi, you've been with me for quite some time, haven't you?" Feng Shengyi was a little confused and simply replied, "Yes, Your Highness!" Li Chu sneered and said, "Humph, since you've been with me for quite some time, you should know. You understand me, and I understand you, too. Do you think I can't tell you're lying?"

Feng Shengyi was so frightened that he immediately knelt down and apologized: "Your Highness, please forgive me. I didn't mean to lie. It's just that the princess was afraid that you would be angry, so I..."

Li Chu rubbed his head and said, "Forget it, I'll let you off this time. How's Ruo'er?" Feng Shengyi said, "The princess should be in the back garden with Princess Yining, right?" Seeing Li Chu rubbing his head, Feng Shengyi said, "Your Highness, do you have a headache?"

Li Chu said, "My head doesn't hurt, but I feel a little dizzy." Feng Shengyi thought to himself: It seems that the hangover soup is really effective! So he said, "Your Highness, you really drank a lot of wine. It was Master Dugu and I who helped you back to health. Later, Princess Yi'an sent her maid Shijian to bring you the hangover soup. Otherwise, I heard that the King of Yunnan's wine can make you drunk. You will have a headache after you wake up!"

Li Chu thought to himself: I didn't expect Jingyao to be so brave and careful. Li Chu thought for a moment and said, "We've been in the palace for quite a long time today. You go and ask someone to take Ruo'er back to the Zhennan Marquis's Mansion. I'll go find the King of Yunnan and the King of Yunnan to say thank you and say goodbye." Feng Shengyi took the order and left.

Li Chu returned to the main hall under the guidance of Dugu's servant, and asked the servant to inform the King of Yunnan.
