Chapter 528 Li Dan, Murong and Lin Zhi meet again
After Dugu Jingyao and the others left the main hall, the Queen returned to her bedroom and couldn't help but sigh, "It seems I didn't choose the wrong person. If Jingyao were a man, her mind would definitely be different."
Nanny Xu also echoed, "Yes, the Princess of Chu is very insightful! Having such a princess is a great help to His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu."
The Queen agreed with Aunt Xu's point of view and said, "Yes, that's true. By the way, Aunt Xu, please help me check whether Miss Murong who came today is married or whether she has any marriage talks with other families. If not, I think she would be a good choice to be Princess Neng'er." Aunt Xu smiled and agreed.
Dugu Jingyao and Murong Linzhi, who were walking out, met Li Neng and Li Ruo who came to pay their respects.
Although Li Shen's temperament was not as calm as Li Chu's, he was still stronger than Li Ruo. Li Ruo skipped to Dugu Jingyao, bowed and said, "Greetings to the Emperor's sister-in-law."
Li Neng then came over and said, "Greetings to the Emperor's sister-in-law."
Murong Linzhi also bowed and said, "This servant pays respects to the two Your Highnesses."
Li Ruo tilted her head to glance at Murong Linzhi who was bowing and said, "Sister, please get up quickly! Sister-in-law, who is this sister? I remember seeing this sister at your wedding with your brother, and at Shi'er and Ying'er's full moon banquet."
Dugu Jingyao pulled Murong Linzhi to the front and introduced her, "This is my best friend, Murong Linzhi, the disciple of the Divine Doctor Gongsun."
Li Ruo looked at Murong Linzhi in surprise and said, "So it's Sister Murong! I've heard a lot about you. You're so amazing!"
Murong Linzhi said, "Princess, you are too kind."
Li Ruo said, "Sister Murong, don't be so modest. Treating illnesses and saving lives requires real skills. How can you say that you are praising me? Brother Emperor, don't you agree?"
As a result, there was no response from Li Neng. Li Ruo looked back and saw Li Neng staring at Murong Linzhi with wide eyes, as if he was disappointed in his son. He ran up to Li Neng and hit him.
Li Neng finally came to his senses and said, "Ouch, can you be a little gentler? You are murdering your own brother!"
Li Ruo asked with ulterior motives, "Who told you to ignore me and only look at your pretty sister?"
Li Neng's face actually turned red after what Li Ruo said. Dugu Jingyao said, "Oh, it seems Ruo'er is right! Brother Neng was so busy looking at Lin Zhi that he couldn't hear Ruo'er talking."
After being teased by Dugu Jingyao, Li Neng's face turned red all the way to his ears. Even Murong Linzhi felt a little embarrassed. She pulled Dugu Jingyao's sleeve with her hand to signal her to stop talking.
Li Neng said, "Empress Sister-in-law, it's okay that Ruo'er is teasing me, but why are you with her? You two can chat, I'll go in first." After saying that, he quickly walked away.
Li Ruo saw this and quickly said, "Hey, Third Brother, wait for me! Sister-in-law, I'm leaving now. I'll visit you at the mansion another day."
Dugu Jingyao said hello to the two siblings and left the palace.
When Li Neng and Li Ruo met the queen, Li Ruo vividly imitated what had just happened outside to the queen.
Li Neng's heart, which had finally calmed down, began to ripple again, and his face turned slightly red.
Seeing Li Neng like this, how could the Queen not know that her youngest son seemed to like Miss Murong? In this case, she had to ask Madam Xu to investigate quickly. If no one had been chosen, the next time she arranged to choose a concubine for Neng, she would definitely choose Miss Murong as the princess!
Outside the palace, Dugu Jingyao first sent Murong Linzhi back to the palace, and then walked back. Halfway through, Dugu Jingyao asked the driver to change the route to the Yunnan Palace.
At the Yunnan Palace, even Dugu Moyan and Shen Zhenzhu did not expect Dugu Jingyao to come. After all, Dugu Jingyao's whereabouts had always been watched in recent times.
However, Dugu Moyan and Shen Zhenzhu still went to the door to greet Dugu Jingyao.
Dugu Moyan said, "What a rare visitor, Yao'er, it's been a long time since you came back to visit."
Dugu Jingyao was a little speechless and replied: "What you said is true. Although the prince is not in the palace, as the princess, I can't always go back to my parents' home, right?"
Shen Zhenzhu naturally supported Dugu Jingyao: "Yes, husband, Jingyao is right. What woman always goes back to her parents' home? Look, I rarely go back to my parents' home after I got married."
Dugu Moyan was quickly defeated by the two men's back-and-forth: "Okay, okay, it's my fault, I was wrong. Now that you're here, come in!"
Only then did Dugu Jingyao bring her two children into the mansion with Dugu Moyan and Shen Zhenzhu.
After they sat down, Dugu Moyan asked, "Why didn't you send a message instead of coming here in person? No one is following you?"
Dugu Jingyao said, "So what if someone follows me? Aren't you even allowing me to go back to my parents' home? Besides, it's just on the way."
Dugu Moyan was a little skeptical and asked, "Is it really just a stopover?"
Dugu Jingyao smiled slightly and said, "Of course there are other things."
Dugu Moyan asked with an expression that said, "Just as I expected," "Tell me, what's going on this time?"
Dugu Jingyao told Dugu Moyan and Shen Zhenzhu what had just happened in the palace, but concealed the specific condition of Emperor Suzong.
Shen Zhenzhu was a little worried: "The enemy is in the dark, and we are in the light. If the person who poisoned the emperor knew that you and Lin Zhi already knew that His Majesty was poisoned, would he be afraid that you would interfere with the plan and want to get rid of you?"
Dugu Jingyao said: "That's why I'm worried about this, brother."
Dugu Moyan was gradually getting used to the intrigues and deceptions in Chang'an City. He would naturally help his sister, so he asked, "What do you need me to do?"
Dugu Jingyao said, "I'm fine. I'm in the Chu Palace, and I still have the secret guards left by Li Chu. I also have Shi Jian and Si Jian by my side, so it's not easy for those behind the scenes to touch me. But Lin Zhi's situation is different. I can't send anyone from the Chu Palace, so I want to ask my brother to send someone to secretly protect Lin Zhi. Of course, I will also send Si Jian to protect Lin Zhi personally."
Dugu Moyan heard this and said, "Okay, I'll arrange for someone to go there later, Yao'er can rest assured."
Dugu Jingyao smiled flatteringly and said, "I knew it was right to find you, brother!"
Although Dugu Moyan said, "Don't flatter me," he was still very happy to be praised by Dugu Jingyao.
After this matter was agreed upon, Dugu Moyan and Shen Zhenzhu played with Li Shi and Li Ying, who had just woken up, for a while before sending Dugu Jingyao and the others away.
