Dugu Jingyao is reborn as Li Chu's beloved

Chapter 371: Discovering the Dugu Sisters Being Rescued

Around noon, Li Chu also came out of the palace and went straight to the Palace of Prince of Yunnan. To outsiders, it seemed that he was going to visit his father-in-law, but in fact he was going to pick up the princess and bring her back to the palace.

However, after leaving the court, Li Chu and the prince went to the Shangshufang to report to the emperor. Everything went smoothly as planned. Now the sisters Dugu Jingyao and Liu Jingyue have been taken back to the mansion, but they have punished the two sisters.

Although the emperor and the crown prince were relieved to hear this, they were also extremely angry in their hearts. Shi Siming and Zhang Jinxin were so bold that they not only kidnapped people from the street in broad daylight, but also punished them in private.

The emperor even said, "Chu'er, when everyone is informed that Jingyao and Jingyue have been brought back to the palace, I will comfort them and severely punish Shi Siming and Zhang!"

After receiving the emperor's assurance, Li Chu felt relieved. He finished his official duties early, reported the matter to the Crown Princess, and then could not wait to leave the palace to look for Dugu Jingyao, the princess who had been "missing for many days."

Because Feng Shengyi was left in the palace today, Li Chu rode into the palace alone. Fortunately, the Yunnan Palace was close by, and it only took about a quarter of an hour to arrive there by horse.

He dismounted, handed the horse to the servant, and entered the palace of the King of Yunnan without saying a word. Although he was very anxious to see Dugu Jingyao, it did not affect his upbringing since childhood, so he still politely saluted Dugu Xin first.

Dugu Xin also knew Li Chu's urgency, so he exempted him from the formalities and asked him to sit down. After Li Chu sat down, he asked, "How did Miss Murong...look after you..."

Liu Jingyue knew that Li Chu actually wanted to ask about Dugu Jingyao's health, so she spoke first, "Don't worry, brother-in-law, we are all fine." She took out two prescriptions written by Murong Linzhi and said, "Sister Linzhi wrote a prescription for us two to recuperate."

Liu Jingyue glanced at a prescription with Jingyao's name written on it and handed it to Zhishu. Zhishu understood and took the prescription and handed it to Shijian.

Dugu Xin heard this and said, "Yuer, give your brother the prescription when he comes back. Have him make another copy and send someone to another pharmacy to get the medicine."

Liu Jingyue naturally agreed readily. As expected, just as Dugu Moyan finished speaking, he returned and entered the main hall. Seeing Li Chu, he said, "Brother-in-law is here too, to pick up Yao'er?"

Li Chu said, "Father, brother and A Yao haven't had a good talk for a long time. We can take Yao'er away later."

Dugu Xin said with satisfaction in his eyes: "Haha, in that case, let's have lunch here and go back later when it's dark."

Dugu Jingyao naturally wanted this to happen, after all, she would not have many opportunities to reunite with her family in the future. Li Chu could see that Dugu Jingyao wanted to spend more time with her family, so he gladly accepted the proposal. The family had a harmonious and warm lunch together.

Meanwhile, in the suburban Shi Mansion, the atmosphere was as if they were facing a formidable enemy. Early in the morning, when Yu Da and Qian San woke up and found themselves leaning against the wall again, they knew something was amiss. Sure enough, when they entered the house, they found it was completely deserted.

Qian San was so loud that he almost cried out, but Yu Da was quick to cover his mouth and whispered, "Keep your voice down! Do you want everyone to know about this?"

Qian San finally fell silent, and then asked anxiously: "Brother, what should we do? If they are both lost, I'm afraid we won't have an easy time either..." Thinking about the way their kind-looking but cruel master dealt with people, he couldn't help but shudder.

Yu Da saw Qian San's fear and said to him, "Don't be afraid yet. Let me think about what to do."

Qian San knew that Yu Da had a good brain and was a clever person, so he nodded and stopped disturbing Yu Da's thinking.

Yu Dasi thought about it for a long time, but he couldn't think of a good way. He could only say: "Even if I can hide it for a while, I can't hide it forever. I will go and explain the situation to the master."

Qian San was a bit stupid, but he could still figure out that if they lost the person, their master would not let them go. So he tried to dissuade them: "Brother, the master will not let us go!"

Yu Da was also helpless, and sighed: "Hey, even if we don't tell her, if we are discovered, do you think she will let us go?"

Qian San couldn't think of any solution, but he still said, "Brother, why don't we delay it for a while? At least the master didn't come yesterday. If he doesn't come today either, no one should notice, right?"

Yu Da pondered Qian San's words and thought: "That does make sense, but if Lord Shi finds them when he arrives, will they be able to escape?" "Maybe Lord Shi will just kill them to vent his anger."

Thinking of this, Yu Da felt that his future was bleak... He said to Qian San: "Even if we can hide it from the master, when Master Shi finds out that the person is missing, we will be blamed..."

In the end, Yu Da decided to tell his master first so that he could take countermeasures. He then went to Zhang Jinxin's courtyard alone.

When Zhang Jinxin heard that it was Yu Da who came, she thought that either Dugu Jingyao or Liu Jingyue was feeling unwell again. Last time, that little bitch Dugu Jingyao had complained to Shi Siming, so this time she might as well ask what was going on!

So she said to the maid who brought the news, "Let him in!" and she continued to lean on the beauty couch and take a nap.

After Yu Da came in, he bowed to Zhang. Zhang rubbed her temples and said, "Tell me, is it Dugu Jingyao or Dugu Jingyue who's causing trouble again?"

Yu Da stammered, "This...this..."

Zhang Jinxin said impatiently, "Just say what you want to say. Why are you hesitating?"

Yu Dayi gritted his teeth, stamped his feet and replied, "It's them two who are missing!"

Zhang Jinxin suddenly became much more sober and said, "What do you mean they are missing? Are you two useless? Look, you even let two little girls run away!" As he said that, he pushed the teacup on the table to the ground.

Yu Da quickly knelt down and said, "It's my fault that I'm incompetent. The person who came here is very skilled in martial arts. When I wanted to ask for help, I was ambushed and knocked unconscious..."

Zhang Jinxin asked desperately, "Have you searched everywhere around here?"

Yu Da replied, "Not yet. As soon as we woke up, we went into the house to check and reported back after we were done."

Zhang Jinxin asked, "When were you attacked?"

Yu Da replied: "Last night..."

Zhang Jinxin knew that after such a long time, he must have run far away, so he said, "What a waste! Get out!"

Yu Da didn't expect that his master would let them go so easily? What he didn't know was that Zhang Jinxin would not let them go easily behind their backs.
