Dugu Jingyao is reborn as Li Chu's beloved

Chapter 368 Reunion



Chapter 368 Reunion

Dugu Xin just realized what Dugu Moyan said as if he had just woken up from a dream, and nodded hurriedly in response: "Yes, yes, yes, oh, look at your father's memory, he is only concerned about the joy in his heart. Come on, let's go into the house first, and then we can talk in detail inside!" Before he finished speaking, he couldn't wait to walk towards the house.

Dugu Jingyao and Liu Jingyue saw this, smiled at each other, and then quickly walked forward, gently holding Dugu Xin's arms on the left and right, like two dependent little birds, surrounding him and walking towards Jiangxuexuan together.

Soon, the group arrived at Jiangxuexuan. However, unexpectedly, upon entering the room, Dugu Xin and the others were surprised to find two familiar figures standing inside. One of them was Murong Linzhi, whom Feng Shengyi had specially invited earlier; the other was undoubtedly Shen Zhenzhu.

When Dugu Jingyao saw this scene, a happy smile appeared on her face. She first looked at Murong Linzhi with a smile, and then turned her gaze to Shen Zhenzhu, and asked curiously: "I know the reason why Linzhi came here. But... Zhenzhu, why are you here too?" There was a hint of doubt in her words.

Shen Zhenzhu was unhappy about this and pretended to be angry and asked, "Why can Lin Zhi come, but I can't? I'm your best friend too!"

Dugu Jingyao quickly explained with a smile: "Of course, I just didn't expect it."

Shen Zhenzhu vaguely noticed that the two sisters' wrists were wrapped in gauze, so she asked, "Are you okay? I wanted to come to your house to find you two days after you were tied up, but the prince couldn't hide it anymore, so he told me."

Dugu Jingyao glanced at Dugu Moyan, who touched his nose awkwardly. Seeing this, Shen Zhenzhu said, "Don't blame the prince. I forced him to answer."

Dugu Jingyao seemed to smell a hint of gossip and said jealously, "Hey, I didn't say anything, and you're already protecting Zhenzhu?"

Of course, Dugu Xin, standing by, also understood Dugu Jingyao's implication and pondered: "Although the Shen family's official position is relatively low, it doesn't matter. Mo Yan will be the King of Yunnan in the future. And I heard that Shen Zhenzhu is a famously talented woman. One is talented in literature, the other in martial arts. If they could marry, they would be a perfect match!"

Shen Zhenzhu pouted coquettishly, her cheeks flushed like clouds, and she whispered shyly: "Oh, Jingyao, don't tease me like this, I'm not like what you said." Her watery eyes turned gently, as if she had thousands of words to say but couldn't.

At this moment, Dugu Xin, who had been immersed in his own thoughts, was suddenly brought back to reality by Shen Zhenzhu's gentle words. He raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a kind smile, and said slowly: "Haha, it's really rare that someone is willing to stand up and speak for this brat, hahaha!"

Dugu Jingyao was furious when she heard this. She pouted and muttered with a hint of dissatisfaction, "Daddy, what do you mean by this? Do you think I'm too harsh on my brother?"

Dugu Xin looked at his daughter's adorable appearance and couldn't help but laugh out loud again, saying aloud, "Hahahaha, isn't that right? My daughter Yao'er does have a bit of a temper sometimes."

Upon hearing this, Dugu Jingyao was so angry that she put her hands on her hips, stamped her feet, and said coquettishly: "Hmph, Daddy, you are really getting more and more excessive! No matter what happened in the past, you always sided with your daughter unconditionally. Why did you suddenly change your mind now?" Her bright big eyes widened, her face full of grievance and unwillingness.

Dugu Xin laughed out loud and said, "Hahaha, dear Yao'er, please give your father and your brother some face!"

Dugu Jingyao then laughed and said, "Hehe, I was just kidding. Of course I have to give face to my father and brother. Okay, okay, why are you all standing? Come and sit down!"

Everyone else was seated, but Murong Linzhi didn't. She was worried about what Feng Shengyi had told her, so she said, "Jingyao, Jingyue, let me take your pulses."

Liu Jingyue had no objection of course, because it was the disciple of the miracle doctor who was taking her pulse.

Dugu Jingyao glanced at Murong Linzhi, as if hinting her not to tell Dugu Xin and others about the silver needle in her body. Murong Linzhi also responded with a look that said "don't worry".

Then he began to check their pulses one by one, starting with Liu Jingyue. Murong Linzhi felt her pulse carefully for a while and then said with a smile: "Jingyue is fine, she just suffered some skin injuries." Liu Jingyue looked like "That's good, that's good", which made everyone laugh.

Then he came to Dugu Jingyao. Murong Linzhi held his breath and carefully felt Dugu Jingyao's pulse. It could be seen from her pulse that although the silver needle did not approach her heart meridian, it had consumed a lot of energy on her body because she had been using internal force to control it.

But she still showed a decent smile and said: "Jingyao's body is a little weak, but it's okay. I will prescribe a prescription for her and she will be fine after taking it."

Hearing this, Dugu Xin and Dugu Moyan both breathed a sigh of relief. Dugu Xin thought to himself: Fortunately, his two daughters have returned safely, otherwise it would be more painful than tearing out his heart! But even so, he would make Shi Siming and Zhang pay the price for kidnapping his daughters!

After Murong Linzhi sat back down, Dugu Jingyao thought of what she had said to Li Chu yesterday, so she looked at Shen Zhenzhu and said, "Zhenzhu, it just so happens that you are here today. There is something I need to tell you."

Seeing Dugu Jingyao suddenly become serious, Shen Zhenzhu also became serious and asked, "What's the matter?"

Dugu Jingyao said, "Now that Yue'er and I have been rescued, it's a good thing for the Prince of Yunnan's Mansion and the Prince of Guangping's Mansion, or rather, it's only a good thing for the Prince of Guangping's Mansion. But it's a dangerous thing for the Shen Mansion."

Dugu Moyan looked at Dugu Jingyao suspiciously and asked, "Yao'er, what do you mean by this?"

Dugu Jingyao continued to explain, "We are from the Yunnan Palace, and even if Shi Siming kidnapped us, it was to threaten Dad to send troops to help them. If they knew about the existence of the Qilin Order, then the Shen Mansion would be in danger."

Dugu Xin understood Dugu Jingyao's meaning and said, "Yao'er, you are saying that our Dugu family must meet any request of the person holding the Qilin Order. Therefore, they may want to seize the Qilin Order and require us to send troops."

Dugu Jingyao nodded and said, "That's what Daddy meant. It's just that Uncle Shen is a censor and his position is not high, so I'm afraid they won't be as concerned about the high position and power of the Yunnan Palace as they are, and they might just kill people to seize the order."

Murong Linzhi was a little surprised: "This... Is there really no law under the Crown Prince's feet?"

Liu Jingyue chuckled and said, "Sister Lin Zhi, they are people who are going to do big things. They even dared to kidnap us in broad daylight. How can they care about the law?"

Hearing this, Murong Linzhi felt that this was also true. Shen Zhenzhu, who was standing by, was even more worried about the safety of her family, so she asked, "Then... what should we do?"

Dugu Jingyao comforted Shen Zhenzhu and said, "Zhenzhu, don't be afraid. I told His Highness about this idea yesterday. He said he would send someone to secretly protect the safety of your mansion."

Then he glanced at Dugu Moyan and said with a smile, "Besides, even if there's no Guangping Palace, don't we still have the Yunnan Palace? Daddy, brother, can you please give me some advice?"

Dugu Xin stood up and said, "The Shen family is our savior, so we must repay them. We cannot let this Qilin Order harm the Shen family. Don't worry, Zhenzhu, your uncle will also send the few trusted people he brought with him to protect the safety of the Shen Mansion."

Seeing Dugu Xin's statement, Dugu Moyan also echoed: "Father is right. The Shen family has done us a favor. Even if you don't tell us, we will protect your safety."

Dugu Jingyao smiled and said, "Since Li Chu has arranged people to protect us in secret, why don't you arrange for some people to go to the Shen Mansion to serve as servants and maids? This way, there will be no conflict. We will have people both in the open and in the dark, so they won't be able to succeed easily!"

Dugu Xin nodded and said, "Well, I also think this method is feasible. I will ask Xunfeng to arrange for someone to go to the Shen Mansion later."

Dugu Jingyao nodded, and Shen Zhenzhu stood up and saluted, saying, "Thank you all for your hard work and planning for our Shen family."

Dugu Jingyao quickly signaled Shi Jian to help Shen Zhenzhu up and said, "Zhenzhu, what are you doing? Apart from anything else, this trouble of yours is partly caused by our Yunnan Palace. Plus, our two families have such a good relationship, we certainly can't just watch you die!"

Shen Zhenzhu was helped up by Shi Jian and sat back in her seat. She said, "Thank you all for that."

After this matter was decided, Dugu Jingyao said to Dugu Xin, "Dad, I still have something to say to Lin Zhi and Zhenzhu. Shall we go back to my bedroom first?"

Dugu Xin was not unwilling to obey, so he just said: "Go ahead!"

Then Dugu Jingyao walked to Shen Zhenzhu and Murong Linzhi, turned around and bowed to Dugu Xin to take her leave, and took Liu Jingyue away with her.

Dugu Xin shook his head helplessly, thinking: I have to pamper my own daughter! So he got up and called Dugu Moyan to go to the study to discuss who to send to the Shen Mansion.
