Dugu Jingyao is reborn as Li Chu's beloved

Chapter 266 Arrived in Yunnan Smoothly

This time, the group's journey seemed particularly leisurely, as they played to their heart's content while slowly moving forward. To be more precise, they stopped and rested, playing and walking.

You know, for Shen Zhenzhu, this was her first long-distance carriage journey. Although the four of them often laughed and joked with each other during the long journey, the long and bumpy road finally made Shen Zhenzhu feel a little overwhelmed, and soon she began to feel motion sickness...

As for Liu Jingyue, her situation wasn't much better. It had been about two months since her last long-distance carriage ride, and embarking on another such journey now inevitably caused some discomfort.

Fortunately, they had Murong Linzhi with them this time. Murong Linzhi was thoughtful and had a unique way of taking care of people. In addition, Liu Jingyue occasionally contributed some wonderful modern tricks, so even if they needed to rest and adjust during the journey, they didn't have to stay in the same place for a long time.

Although they visited many interesting places along the way, Dugu Jingyao and Liu Jingyue both felt a strong sense of homesickness.

After some discussion, they finally decided to take the water route, just as they had on their way to Chang'an. This would shorten the journey and allow everyone to relax a little. And so, after more than twenty days of travel, they finally arrived in Yunnan without any problems.

Perhaps Dugu Xin also missed his two precious daughters. On this day, when they stepped into Yunnan, not only was Dugu Moyan waiting there to greet them, but Dugu Xin himself also came out in person to welcome their return.

In the early morning hours, a beautifully decorated carriage slowly made its way along a winding road. The wheels creaked softly, as if betraying the exhaustion and length of the journey. Finally, the carriage came to a stop on a flat, open surface.

The guard Xunfeng, who had been following the carriage, quickly stepped forward and contacted General Dugu Xin, who had been waiting in front for a long time.

Everyone in the carriage was particularly excited because today was their last day home, so they all got up early and started their journey. After a long journey, everyone was already sleeping in the carriage in various postures.

Dugu Xin watched Xun Feng approaching quickly, his eyes first falling on his slightly plump figure. He couldn't help but think to himself, it seems they didn't suffer much hardship along the way, otherwise Xun Feng wouldn't look so comfortable.

However, despite receiving Xunfeng's letter to report his safety, Dugu Xin was still worried about his two precious daughters. When he looked around but couldn't find his daughters, his brows furrowed tightly and he asked anxiously, "Xunfeng, where are Yao'er and Yue'er? Why can't I see them?"

Xun Feng seemed prepared, and with a hint of a smile on his face, he replied, "Your Highness, I'm sure the two princesses are homesick and have been up since before dawn. They might not show up yet, so I guess... they're still asleep!"

Dugu Xin felt a surge of pity after hearing this. He knew full well that his two daughters must have endured a great deal of hardship along the way. Thinking of this, he quickly said to Xun Feng, "If that's the case, then let's not wake them up for now. Let's go back to the mansion first. We can wake them up once we reach the gate."

Xunfeng nodded respectfully, then turned and waved to the group behind him, signaling them to continue forward. With that, the small group once again set out on the road to the Yunnan Palace. The sound of horse hooves echoed across the empty streets, leaving behind traces of both deep and shallow tracks.

On the other side, in the prosperous and bustling city of Chang'an, the mastermind behind the scenes was filled with resentment and unwillingness after learning that Dugu Jingyao and his group had set off again to return to Yunnan.

Fortunately, however, the method she employed this time was a deeply sinister "love poison." Even if Dugu Jingyao managed to survive, she would never again be able to compete with her own daughter. With this in mind, the mastermind abandoned the idea of sending another assassination attempt. After all, if they acted too hastily, they might accidentally reveal their identity.

However, her beloved daughter was a person of quick temper. When she heard the news, she instantly became furious and started to vent her anger in the house without saying a word.

She smashed all the porcelain in the house to pieces, cursing as she did so: "Damn bitch! How can she be so lucky that she can't die like this? It's so hateful! It's all because of her that I can't become the Princess of Guangping!" Such unbearable words kept pouring out of her mouth.

The lady felt a splitting headache upon learning her daughter was throwing a tantrum again. But she was helpless. After all, this was her only child. Ultimately, it was all her fault for being overly indulgent, pampering the child to the point where she was now. Not only was her personality naive, but whenever she encountered something unpleasant, she would resort to such extreme means to vent her emotions...

After a moment's silence, the lady sighed helplessly and said slowly, "Forget it, come with me to take a look." After that, she walked towards where her daughter was with heavy steps.

When the lady arrived, her daughter was already exhausted and panting. She sat on the couch and drank water in big gulps to steady her breathing and extinguish her inner anger.

When the lady saw the broken porcelain pieces all over the floor, she sent someone in to clean up the mess first. She also arranged for someone to apply medicine to the maids who were injured by the broken porcelain pieces. After that, she sent the other maids away.

The girl's eyes immediately filled with tears. She ran to her mother sobbing, "Why isn't that bitch dead?"

The lady was still a little wary of what her daughter said and said, "My daughter, please keep your voice down!"

The girl continued to cry, but she listened to her mother's advice and said, "But I really can't accept it. She is about to die, and I am getting closer and closer to the position of Princess Guangping!"

The lady comforted the girl, saying, "My child, don't worry. I said I would find a way for you, and I will definitely find a way for you."

The girl persisted, saying, "You said before that His Royal Highness Prince Guangping and the genius doctor's apprentice had gone, and that she was in great danger, but she's still alive!"

The lady thought it was time to teach her a lesson, so she said to the girl, "I didn't know she could escape this disaster. But..."

The lady paused, and the girl asked, "But what?"

The lady lowered her voice and whispered a few words in the girl's ear. The girl exclaimed in surprise, "What? It's actually..." Before she could finish her words, her mother covered her mouth.

The lady made a hushing gesture and said, "Shh, keep your voice down. Do you want everyone to know that you did this for your mother?"

The girl realized something and quickly shut up.

The lady said, "If the poison is cured, it would prove that Dugu Jingyao has lost her chastity. Do you think the royal family would choose a woman who has lost her chastity as their daughter-in-law?"

The girl finally understood and wiped her tears with a handkerchief, saying, "Mother, you are right. It is my fault for losing my temper with you."

The lady felt that the boy was teachable, and then said, "I will slowly teach you the ways of the harem from now on. It's all my fault for raising you so naive."

The girl snuggled in the lady's arms and said coquettishly, "It's all my fault. I'm sorry for making you worry. I will study hard in the future."

The lady nodded with satisfaction, hugged the girl and said, "You will have to make your own way in the future. I can't be with you all the time and help you like I do today."

The girl nodded and responded, "I know, mother. I will try my best to be the Princess of Guangping!" It seemed that the position of Princess of Guangping was already in her pocket... It's a pity that they were just talking to themselves.
