Dugu Jingyao is reborn as Li Chu's beloved

Li Chu said, "Ruo'er, do you really want Jingyao to come to Chang'an to teach you?" Li Ruo nodded repeatedly and said, "Of course, I really want to learn well, and Sister Jingyao is very patient. Plus, Sister Jingyao's status is suitable. Otherwise, my father and mother would definitely not find another teacher for me. Even if they did, they would all be men, and it wouldn't be appropriate for a man to teach me!"

Li Chu also thought so, but if they asked Dugu Jingyao to go back with them this time, it might be too late. So he said to Li Ruo, "Ruo'er, I understand what you mean, but I'm afraid it's too late for Jingyao to go back to Chang'an with us this time. After all, time is a bit tight. First, we haven't told the King of Yunnan about this matter yet. Second, the King of Yunnan and his men don't have a residence in Chang'an. If they go there, they will either have to stay at the post station or in the palace. Jingyao can't live in the palace forever, so we need to think it over."

Li Ruo wondered if her brother had spoken to Sister Jingyao beforehand. Otherwise, why would they say the same thing? So Li Ruo asked Li Chu, "Brother, what's going on between you and Sister Jingyao?" Before Li Ruo could finish, Li Chu interrupted with a guilty conscience, "What's going on?"

Li Ruo asked, "Why do you two both give the same reason why Sister Jingyao can't go to Chang'an right now? Did you two collude in advance?"

Li Chu hadn't actually expected Jingyao to share the same idea as him. He didn't know whether to say they were in sync or that their analytical thinking was the same. Thinking of this, he smiled.

Li Ruo, standing by, wondered what her brother was laughing at. She grabbed Li Chu's sleeve and shook it, saying, "Brother, what are you laughing at? Are you listening to me?"

Li Chu came back to his senses and said to Li Ruo, "Alright, stop being so petty! I do have an idea. In five months it will be the Emperor's birthday. Logically, the King of Yunnan should go to Chang'an to celebrate. If we go then, we might still have time. Then we can find a way to talk to Father and Mother about letting Jingyao teach you martial arts. If the Emperor or Father give the order, then maybe we can stay in Chang'an and teach you!"

Li Ruo was very happy after hearing this. It seemed that Sister Jingyao could be put on the agenda to enter Chang'an, so she said to Li Chu: "Then I will tell Sister Jingyao about this arrangement when I go to practice martial arts with her tomorrow!"

Seeing that her problem had been solved, Li Ruo thanked Li Chu and went to her room. Li Chu shook his head and thought: When will she grow up? Then he thought: This is good, I hope Ruoer will always be an innocent little princess.

After Li Ruo returned to her room, she asked Ruhua to massage her legs according to the massage techniques that Si Jian taught her in the morning, hoping that she could still practice martial arts tomorrow.

On the other side, in the Yunnan Palace, Dugu Jingyao was also reviewing what happened at this time point in her previous life. However, Yunnan was too far away from Chang'an, so not much happened to Chang'an in her previous life.

Then, an idea suddenly struck me. It seemed that the Emperor's birthday would be in five months. In my previous life, my father had gone to Chang'an to celebrate the Emperor's birthday, but I didn't know what I was thinking, so I asked to stay at home in Yunnan... This seemed like a good opportunity. I would tell my father that I was going to Chang'an this time! Thinking of this, I felt much better.
