Dugu Jingyao is reborn as Li Chu's beloved

Chapter 269: Yunnan Palace Resettlement 2

Since Murong Linzhi did not bring any maids with him on this trip, Dugu Jingyao immediately instructed Shi Jian beside him, "Quickly arrange for two smart maids to serve you well."

Soon, two well-trained, dignified maids arrived. Dugu Jingyao nodded slightly and said softly to Murong Linzhi, "Linzhi, these two maids will stay with you for the time being. If you need anything, just tell them." After saying this, Dugu Jingyao also carefully instructed the two maids to take good care of Murong Linzhi.

The two maids responded respectfully. Murong Linzhi was filled with gratitude and quickly bowed to express his gratitude: "Thank you, Jingyao, for your thoughtfulness. I will always remember this kindness."

Upon hearing this, Dugu Jingyao simply smiled and gently waved her hand, responding, "Lin Zhi, you're being too formal. We're sisters, so why should we be so polite? Since I invited you here, I'll take full responsibility for all your matters."

Then, she raised her jade hand and pointed to the right, continuing, "My Banmengxuan is right to your right. When you've rested, you might as well come and talk to me. It will also allow us two sisters to get closer."

After hearing this, Murong Linzhi smiled and nodded, agreeing. She then stood quietly, watching Dugu Jingyao walk further and further away until her figure disappeared. Only then did she turn around and slowly walk towards Anran Residence with her two maids.

Back in the room, Murong Linzhi secretly sighed that it was a great blessing in his life to be able to meet such a kind-hearted and hospitable person like Dugu Jingyao.

After Liu Jingyue returned to Shuxiangxie, she didn't care about her manners at all. After all, she was home, back to her own territory, why was she still so pretentious!

So she threw her shoes aside and threw herself on the bed. Zhishu called Shili and pulled Liu Jingyue up together, saying, "Hey, Princess, you should lie down later. Wash up and change clothes before going to bed!"

Zhishu first ordered someone to prepare hot water. Since everyone in the mansion knew that the princesses would be returning in the next two days, hot water was always on hand. Once the hot water was ready, Zhishu and Shili immediately pulled Liu Jingyue up from the bed and dragged her to the bathroom.

When Liu Jingyue was taken off her clothes by the two men and pulled into the bathtub, Liu Jingyue sighed, "It's so comfortable!" as if all the fatigue from the journey had been washed away.

She let Zhishu and Shili rub her back, add water, and so on, while she closed her eyes and enjoyed it very much. If Zhishu hadn't seen that it had been quite a while, Liu Jingyue might have fallen asleep in the tub...

After getting ready and changing into comfortable pajamas, Liu Jingyue could no longer contain her fatigue and quickly fell asleep, cuddling up to her large bed. Zhishu stepped forward to tuck in the corners of Liu Jingyue's quilt, then he and Shili withdrew, also preparing to rest for a while.

On the other side, in Banmengxuan, Dugu Jingyao returned to the familiar courtyard. She did not rush to hug her bed like Liu Jingyue, but asked Si Jian to prepare hot water and asked Shi Jian to help her grind ink. She was going to write a letter to Li Chu to report her safety.

After Shi Jian ground the ink, Dugu Jingyao picked up the pen and wrote: "We have arrived safely in Yunnan, don't worry!"

To ensure the letter reached Chang'an quickly, she decided to write only a short sentence and then send it by carrier pigeon, which should be faster. She rolled up the letter, placed it in a small bamboo tube, and handed it to Shi Jian. She instructed, "Hurry and deliver this letter to Chang'an, the Prince of Guangping's palace."

Shi Jian obeyed the order. She knew that her princess was anxious, so she did not dare to delay. She asked Si Jian to help Dugu Jingyao bathe while she went to deliver the letter first.

Soon, Shi Jian returned to Banmengxuan and told Dugu Jingyao that he had delivered the letter. Dugu Jingyao hummed softly in the bathtub and said nothing more.

Shi Jian saw that there was only a faint red mark on the place where Dugu Jingyao was originally injured, so he said, "Princess, the aloe vera gel used by the little princess is really effective. There is no scar left, only a faint mark. I think it will disappear after using it again!"

Dugu Jingyao closed her eyes and smiled: "Yes, Yue'er is really talented in this area. I have just washed it and will apply some more later. I will go to sleep for a while."

Shi Jian agreed, and Dugu Jingyao opened her eyes, got out of the bathtub, changed her clothes, returned to the dormitory, lay on the bed, and rested peacefully.

Although Su Ci and Hong Rui served in Liyun Courtyard, they were not familiar with the palace, so Dugu Jingyao also arranged two maids for Shen Zhenzhu.

And now, it was used. Hong Rui was a little timid at first, and when she saw one of them, she asked, "Excuse me, young lady, where can I get some hot water?"

The maid's name was Dujuan. She smiled and said, "Sister, you can just call me Dujuan. We have prepared hot water. Please move over, Miss Shen."

Hongrui was grateful in her heart: "Thank you, Sister Dujuan. I will go and call the young lady right away."

Soon, Hongrui returned to the inner room and said, "Miss, the people in the palace have prepared hot water."

Shen Zhenzhu was a little worried that Su Ci had been spoiled by her and was now speaking without restraint. But after hearing Hong Rui's reply, she reluctantly put the matter behind her. Su Ci felt a little aggrieved and didn't dare to say anything.

Before Shen Zhenzhu went to the bathhouse, she said to Su Ci, "You don't have to come with me. Go pack up your things and reflect on how you can keep your mouth shut!"

Su Ci felt annoyed. After all, her young lady was always kind and had never spoken so harshly to her. But she knew that the young lady was doing it for her own good, so she simply went back to pack her bags.

About a quarter of an hour later, Shen Zhenzhu had finished packing and went back to her room to rest.

Meanwhile, Murong Linzhi, unused to being waited on, nearly fell asleep in the tub after soaking in it for so long. Luckily, the maid assigned to her, Miyou, noticed Murong Linzhi hadn't come out for a long time and knocked on the door to remind him. The knock startled Murong Linzhi awake, and he got up, packed up, and went back to his room to lie down and rest.
