Chapter 365 The Princess is Back!
Several secret guards left the city again before curfew. Fortunately, they arrived in time. Although they were seriously injured, they were still alive and could be saved.
However, the journey back to the city was still quite a distance, and they feared the man was beyond saving after such a long journey. So they loaded the man onto a carriage and headed to the nearest dilapidated temple. Fortunately, one of them had learned medical skills, and they eventually saved him. However, that wasn't the main point. The main point was to return to Prince Guangping's mansion.
At the Prince Guangping's mansion, Li Chu led his men to ambush the secret guards who came to rescue people, and then he returned to the Prince Guangping's mansion at full speed. However, because it was a secret operation, it did not alert other people in the mansion, so no one knew that he had left the mansion.
So he and Feng Shengyi both climbed over the wall into the palace and returned to the Chenxiang Pavilion. They quickly took off their outer black clothes and put on their casual clothes underneath.
When the servant outside saw that it was Dugu Jingyao and Liu Jingyue who had returned, he naturally hurriedly took the two masters into the mansion.
He quickly sent someone to inform Li Chu, and also notified Shi Jian, Si Jian, and the other maids in Wangyuexuan to prepare hot water and clean clothes. For a moment, the entire Guangping Palace became brightly lit and bustling.
The messenger hurried to the Chenxiang Pavilion. Feng Shengyi had just changed his clothes and came out. Seeing the servant panting, he asked, "What's the matter? Why are you in such a hurry? His Highness has already rested. If you disturb him, be careful and be punished!"
The servant took a deep breath and said with a smile, "If it weren't for something important, how could I dare to disturb Your Highness at this time? And this is not only a big deal, but also a happy occasion!"
Feng Shengyi feigned curiosity and asked, "What exactly is going on? Don't keep me in suspense, or I'll have His Highness punish you severely!"
The servant smiled and said, "It's the princess who has returned!"
Feng Shengyi exclaimed, "What? The princess is back? This is indeed a great event. Take this, I'll report it to His Highness!"
The servant took the silver coins with a smile and said, "Thank you, Guard Feng. The princess and the princess should have returned to Wangyuexuan by now. Your Highness can go directly to Wangyuexuan."
Feng Shengyi nodded. Before he even entered the room, he heard Li Chu's voice: "Feng Shengyi, what's going on? Why is it so noisy outside?"
Feng Shengyi knocked on the door upon hearing this. After receiving permission, he quickly walked into the bedroom and bowed, saying, "Congratulations, Your Highness! The Princess and the Princess are back!"
Li Chu couldn't wait to rush out when he heard that, but Feng Shengyi told him to be patient, as there were other people outside. Li Chu then realized that it was a bit fake for him to appear in front of everyone in such a hurry.
So he raised his voice and said, "Are you serious? Quick! Change your clothes for me. I'll go check it out right away!"
About a quarter of an hour later, Li Chu hurried out of Chenxiang Pavilion with Feng Shengyi and headed for Wangyue Pavilion. His steps were brisk along the way and he soon arrived at Wangyue Pavilion.
Looking at the busy figures in Wangyuexuan, Li Chu had a feeling that it was not real. After all, Dugu Jingyao was not in the mansion these days, and Wangyuexuan had been deserted. Now that the owner of Wangyuexuan was back, it finally became popular.
When they entered Wangyuexuan, everyone was so busy that they didn't notice the arrival of Li Chu and Feng Shengyi at first. They only saw them when Shijian came out to fetch water.
With a smile in her eyes, she stepped forward and saluted Li Chu, saying, "Greetings to His Royal Highness Prince Guangping!"
Li Chu finally came to his senses and asked, "Where is your princess?"
Shi Jian replied: "Your Highness, the princess and the young princess are bathing..."
Li Chu smiled and said, "Then let the two sisters take a bath first. I will go to the bedroom to wait for her."
Shi Jian agreed and then went to the bathroom with water.
Liu Jingyue couldn't help but sigh as she soaked in the hot bath: "Ah! It feels so good! Please help me wash my hair. It's all tangled from not taking a bath for so many days!"
The other people present couldn't help but laugh, and Si Jian even volunteered to help Liu Jingyue wash her hair, and the atmosphere was cheerful.
Shi Jian brought hot water and asked the two of them to carry it on their backs. Then he went to Dugu Jingyao and washed her hair, whispering, "Prince Guangping is here. He said he's waiting for you in the bedroom."
Although the sound was not loud, the bathroom was so small and there were not many people in it, so Liu Jingyue naturally heard it. So she said tactfully, "Sister, then hurry up and don't keep my brother-in-law waiting. I'll finish my shower and ask Si Jian to help me apply the medicine."
Hearing this, Dugu Jingyao smiled knowingly and said, "Then Si Jian, Yue'er will be left to you."
Si Jian quickly said, "This is my job. It's so polite of you to say that, Princess! I'm going to be angry!" After saying that, he pouted in pretending to be angry.
This scene made everyone laugh again.
But on the other side, Dugu Jingyao didn't have time to soak for a while. She asked Shi Jian to help her wash her hair and wash her body again. Then she got up, dried herself, changed into pajamas, put on a cloak and went out.
In the bedroom, although Li Chu said he was not in a hurry, his heart ached when he thought of the scars on his wrists and ankles when he saw Dugu Jingyao last time, so he seemed a little uneasy.
Soon, Dugu Jingyao returned to the bedroom. The moment they saw each other, they could no longer hold back and hugged each other. Shi Jian quietly left the bedroom, closed the door, and left space for the two.
