His Royal Highness Prince Wu Ling, who was once ruthless and invincible on the battlefield, is now extremely cautious in front of the Qin family, fearing that if he makes a wrong move, the Qin family will snatch his wife from him.
Qin Qingyao did not go to bed, but squatted beside the bed, lifted up Dugu Yu's trouser legs, and saw his knees.
Although I had already taken a bath, the bruises from kneeling all night were still obvious, and the skin on the outside was a little frostbitten. After soaking in hot water, my knees became swollen.
Qin Qingyao felt extremely distressed. This big fool had to kneel all night!
No one will see you in the middle of the night, and no one will know if you're slacking off.
She really never dreamed that Dugu Yu would do this for her. She was so moved that she burst into tears. Did she think that the clouds would finally clear and the moon would appear? It was really a blessing from heaven!
She lowered her head and gently kissed Dugu Yu's swollen knee. Dugu Yu lay on the bed, his hands unconsciously clenched.
The feeling on my knees was very strange. It was slightly cold at first, then became warm and went all the way to my chest.
He suddenly remembered that Qin Qingyao had injured her hand before and she said, "Husband, kiss me and it won't hurt."
He thought she was going crazy.
He now realized that what she said was true.
When someone takes on your pain with their heartache, any torture will seem insignificant.
Dugu Yu sat up, bent down, picked up Qin Qingyao who was squatting beside the bed, stuffed her into the quilt, and hugged her.
Qin Qingyao was suddenly picked up and held in a tight embrace, not knowing how to react.
"Hubby? What's wrong with you?"
Dugu Yu hugged her and buried his face in her chest, not letting her see any expression.
Just when Qin Qingyao thought she would not get an answer, Dugu Yu's muffled voice came from her chest, "I just want to hug you."
Qin Qingyao: "..."
Dugu Yu could actually be this clingy sometimes? It's like red rain from the sky!
Qin Qingyao looked at the head with loose hair on her chest and thought of a large dog acting coquettishly.
She hesitantly raised one hand, and cautiously and lightly patted the back of his head.
No response?
Then he took another shot.
Dugu Yu just rubbed his face against her chest and did not resist.
Qin Qingyao covered her mouth and chuckled, then she boldly put her hand on the back of Dugu Yu's head and stroked his hair.
In less than five minutes, Dugu Yu fell asleep.
Then Qin Qingyao also took a nap.
He slept until almost evening, and at lunch time, no one from the Qin family dared to call Qin Qingyao to eat.
Everyone knows that Prince Wu Ling is catching up on his sleep, so why bother asking what the Third Miss is doing in there? How shameless!
Minister Qin really felt that Qin Qingyao had lost all his face. The saying "Girls cannot be kept at home when they grow up" was absolutely true.
Considering her situation, it’s a blessing that Dugu Yu didn’t write a letter of divorce, otherwise she would have begged him to take it back desperately, and the Qin family would be even more embarrassed!
When it was almost dark, Dugu Yu woke up first, awakened by Qin Qingyao's rumbling stomach.
He slept very deeply and was a little dazed when he woke up. He looked around for a long time before he remembered that he was sleeping in Qin Qingyao's boudoir.
"Qingqing, Qingqing, don't sleep anymore, get up and eat."
Qin Qingyao didn't know if she was dreaming of a big meal. She smacked her lips and licked her lips with her little pink tongue, which made Dugu Yu laugh out loud.
After he put on his clothes, he picked up Qin Qingyao and started to serve her. It was not that he didn't want her to sleep, but this was not the palace, and he was afraid that if the two of them were too unscrupulous, Lord Qin would have an opinion.
If you want to sleep, you can go back to the palace and sleep however you want, no one will dare to object.
Qin Qingyao went downstairs and washed her face before she finally woke up completely.
As soon as I opened the door, the nanny was waiting at the door, "Your Highness, Princess, the master and the mistress are waiting for you two to have dinner."
When they heard this, they felt that something was wrong, and they quickly ran towards the restaurant hand in hand.
Wow, at the Qin family’s dining table, there were not only Minister Qin and his wife, but also the main wife’s three sons, three daughters-in-law, two daughters, and two sons-in-law. They were all elders, just waiting for the two younger ones.
Not to mention Dugu Yu, even Qin Qingyao felt her scalp tingling. "Hey, Dad, Mom, Brother, Sister-in-law, Sister, and Brother-in-law, hello!"
Dugu Yu, "Hello, Dad and Mom, Hello, Brother, Sister-in-law, Sister, and Brother-in-law."
The Qin family, "..."
Minister Qin straightened his back and cleared his throat. "Hurry up and take a seat. It's time to eat!"
"yes!"
Dugu Yu thought about it carefully and realized that he had never had such a formal family meal together.
It's different from a palace banquet, visiting someone else's home, or eating out with subordinates.
The scene was as grand as if he was hosting a dinner party to celebrate his return home three days ago.
There were fourteen people at the table. Qin Qingyao was so hungry that he just kept eating, while the others seemed to be using Dugu Yu as a side dish, stealing glances at him from time to time, as if he were a precious animal.
Dugu Yu didn't know they were looking at him, he just didn't know why they were looking at him.
So try to behave generously and appropriately, and be a qualified son-in-law and a considerate husband.
Not only did he pick up some food for Qin Qingyao, he also spontaneously picked up a big chicken leg for Qin Shangshu.
Looking at Minister Qin's rosy and smiling face, he secretly gave himself a thumbs-up in his heart, thinking that he had flattered the right person.
In fact, getting along with the Qin family is not as difficult as imagined. Their personalities are really similar to Qin Qingyao's, and they are particularly easy to satisfy.
But he didn't know that the Qin family was so united today, and they seemed to be apologizing to him.
Although the Qin family was firm in their attitude at the beginning and had a fierce quarrel with him, after calming down and solving the problem, they began to feel that they had gone too far.
It is really unbearable to ask a prince to apologize to them. What if they offend Dugu Yu and he takes revenge on them later? What should they do then?
Especially Qin Yuelu, when he came back and learned about the whole thing, it was like a bolt from the blue. He talked a lot of nonsense in front of Qin Shangshu, and Qin Shangshu felt that he was a heinous criminal.
But wasn't he doing that for his daughter's own good? If King Wu Ling wanted to settle the score with him later, he would be too petty!
At dinner time, everyone was waiting for the two of them, just to see Dugu Yu's attitude.
As a result, not only were they not angry or annoyed, but they were polite to Minister Qin. They called out to everyone in the circle, making them feel terrified and frightened.
Seeing Dugu Yu being so respectful, Minister Qin started to show off again. He threw all Qin Yuelu's theories about hierarchy out of the window, and acted like the head of the family.
Dugu Yu finally understood that the Qin family is soft-hearted and does not respond to harshness. Even though Minister Qin is so old, he still needs to be coaxed. He needs to learn to be thick-skinned!
After finishing the meal, Minister Qin pretended to lecture and comment on the group, asking how this person's life was, how that person's work was, and whether anyone had any troubles that needed to be solved.
When talking about the case in Qin Yuefeng's hands, he said with a dark face that he was not doing his job well. The person had not been caught for several months and he had let down the emperor's trust.
Qin Qingyao secretly curled her lips and said, "How dare you talk about others? You were in a bad mood today and didn't even go to the morning court. Let's see how you are going to explain to the emperor tomorrow!"
Qin Yuefeng was very receptive and felt ashamed of what his father said.
Qin Qingyao thought about it and realized that if the flower thief had not been caught by Dugu Yu early on, then that part of the plot would have happened immediately.
But didn’t that collapse a few months ago? So what case are they talking about?
Minister Qin, "Girls shouldn't get involved in men's affairs!"
Qin Qingyao rolled his eyes to the sky. Dugu Yu said, "Brother, if you have any difficulties, just tell me. If you can't persuade me, I can still help."
Qin Yuefeng gave him a grateful smile and said, "Actually, it's the murderous maniac who has been causing trouble around Yulin City for the past two months."
"He's a skilled martial artist who comes and goes without a trace, specializing in killing women who are engaged. Four days ago, he committed a crime in the city. The victim was the fiancée of the fourth young master of the family of Lord Zhao, the governor of the Nine Gates."
"The New Year is approaching, and the people in the city are in a state of panic. Even the families of high-ranking officials are not spared. The emperor is furious and demands that we apprehend the criminal before the New Year."
"But he committed the crime so decisively and without leaving any clues. Even now, we don't even know who the other party is."
Qin Qingyao was immediately shocked. Damn, this plot sounded familiar. The flower thief is gone, and now he has become a murderer?
The entire flower thief incident not only enhanced the righteous image of the heroine Lin Xiafeng, but also added a strong stroke of color to the brutal image of Dugu Yu, and also promoted the relationship between Prince Duan and Lin Xiafeng.
But that was a flower thief. Lin Xiafeng, the most beautiful woman, was seduced while taking a bath. What should she do now?
It's unknown whether this murderer has suffered some kind of psychological trauma, but he only kills engaged women. Could it be that Lin Xiafeng arranged a marriage for someone to lure him into the trap?
Qin Qingyao was so focused on the plot that she didn't listen to what they were discussing. When she came to her senses, her father was already chasing them away.
What happened? He was fine just now. Who messed with him again?
The young couple was kicked out of the Qin family's gate. Qin Qingyao was very upset. Her father was too arrogant. Was it so difficult for him to just say that he forgave Dugu Yu and allowed her to go home with Dugu Yu?
He even has to put on an expression as if he doesn't want to see you and tells you to get out of here. How childish!
The two were kicked out, and the Qin Mansion didn't even arrange a carriage for them.
It was late at night, the streets were cold and deserted.
Qin Qingyao and Dugu Yu clasped their fingers together, and she leaned on him with a boneless look, resting her chin on his arm. She stared at Dugu Yu's face without even looking at the road.
The more you look at it, the more handsome it becomes!
"Husband~"
"Um?"
"I don't want to leave."
Dugu Yu felt uncomfortable, thinking that Qin Qingyao didn't want to go back to the palace with him, but the next thing she said was, "Carry me on your back!"
