For example, the flower thief disappeared and a murderer came. For example, the elopement plot collapsed, but Liu Shiyuan still made his and Miss Qin San's trivial matters known to everyone, and finally died.
For example, she should have been a lonely and lonely supporting role and died miserably in the end, but she successfully won all the love of the second male lead, and then a mentally ill enemy jumped out and killed her directly!
After Dugu Yu left the court, he saw Prince Yi, with a serious face, blocking Prince Duan and asking, "Who hurt my daughter yesterday? What were you doing when you were away?"
Prince Duan truly felt wronged. Why had he gone there? Hadn't he already reported to the Emperor at court this morning? Besides, hadn't An Li gone into the mountains alone and been injured by a wild beast? Why was he to blame?
"Uncle, please calm down..."
Dugu Yu snorted coldly, ignored the old man Prince Yi, and ignored Ling Jingxuan's eyes for help. He turned around and hurriedly left the palace, and rushed home in a carriage.
After arriving home, he was afraid of disturbing Qin Qingyao's rest, so he didn't let the servants say anything and sneaked in like a thief.
After entering, the sleeping face was not as imagined. Qin Qingyao was leaning against the head of the bed, with pale lips and sweat on his forehead, looking very nervous, helpless and confused.
He walked past before Qin Qingyao could come to her senses, and then he saw the words written on the paper.
Drugged him? What drug?
"Qingqing~"
"Ah? You're back."
"Yeah." Dugu Yu sat down on the edge of the bed, reached out and smoothed the hair behind Qin Qingyao's head, then hooked her over and kissed her on the forehead.
After his lips left her forehead, he pointed at the paper and asked, "What is this?"
Qin Qingyao, "..."
She looked at Dugu Yu's eyes and thought for a while, then said seriously, "Oh, I just remembered that someone will drug you on the 28th, you have to be careful."
Dugu Yu nodded, believing in what Qin Qingyao said. "I know, I will be careful. Don't say anything."
After getting up and washing up, Qin Qingyao went to eat with Dugu Yu. In order to take care of her throat, the table was full of light liquid food, which made Qin Qingyao sweat.
Their chef is so bold. Even if she can’t eat, the prince has to eat too.
But Dugu Yu didn't seem to have any objection.
"You asked them to do that?"
"Well, you can't eat anything else for now. Whatever you want to eat, I'll have them make it for you once your throat is better."
Qin Qingyao was suddenly moved and distressed, "Then you have to eat too."
I have to take care of her and worry about military affairs at the same time, how can I not eat enough!
Dugu Yu, "Will you watch me eat? Come on, eat. I'll eat with you. If you can eat your fill, so can I. When you're healed, let the kitchen prepare something delicious for you!"
Qin Qingyao really wasn't being pretentious. She didn't feel like crying even when Ling Anli was almost strangled to death yesterday, but now her nose was sore.
Dugu Yu poured a bowl of lean meat porridge and handed it to her, "Why are you looking at me? Eat."
…
After Qin Qingyao's companions came back, no one told anyone about her injury, because Princess Anli was also injured at the same time, and everyone thought too much about it.
They dared not spread gossip about the royal family. What if Prince Yi really investigated and did not dare to attack Prince Wu Ling's Mansion, but instead punished them for failing to protect them?
So even the Qin family didn't know that their beloved daughter was almost dead.
She has been quietly recuperating at home these two days, and Dugu Yu has been with her all the time. When he goes to the study to handle official business, Qin Qingyao is beside him reading, daydreaming, and thinking about things.
Neither of them said anything, but they felt an indescribable sense of security and satisfaction in their hearts.
April 28
After Dugu Yu left the court, he greeted his colleagues politely and planned to rush back to the palace to have dinner with Qin Qingyao.
But as soon as he walked out of the hall, he was stopped by Prince Duan and others who were well prepared.
"Dugu, I'm grateful to you all for your contribution to my father's commendation today. Please don't refuse me this time. Give me a chance and let's go to Wangjiang Tower tonight and have a few drinks together."
After saying that, he added, "Don't worry, it's definitely just drinking, there won't be any women involved."
After all, the last time he brought those women with him, not only did he not get to drink, but it also ended up being very embarrassing. Ling Jingxuan has learned his lesson.
What Dugu Yu was thinking about at this moment was not whether there was a woman or not, but what Qin Qingyao said, that someone would drug him today.
It turned out that they were waiting for him here. If he didn't have an injured wife to take care of at home, he would really want to go to the banquet and see for himself who was so bold as to plot against him.
"Thank you for your kindness, Your Highness Prince Duan. However, the princess has been in poor health recently, and I am worried about her being alone at home. So, you can go first this time. I will host you next time to apologize."
Dugu Yu's natural look of going home to take care of Qin Qingyao really dropped everyone's jaws.
Why does it feel like his doting on the princess has reached a new level? And now it seems to have far exceeded the scope of his doting on the princess. It seems that he is more dependent on the princess and can't leave her anymore...
Of course, everyone only dares to complain about this kind of thing in their hearts, and no one dares to say it out loud. Who would believe it if they said it out loud?
In fact, Ling Jingxuan mainly wanted to thank Dugu Yu for helping him in the court, even though he was just stating the facts and was genuinely concerned about the people, not to support him.
However, Dugu Yu never took credit for anything in the court, so all the credit went to him, and Prince Duan was sincerely grateful to him.
If they were to meet Dugu Yu alone, not only would they be worried that he wouldn't show up, they would also be worried that others would imagine things and spread rumors, saying that they were forming cliques.
Now they finally have a reason and everyone agrees except him. Ling Jingxuan will certainly not let him go easily.
"How is the princess's injury? Is it serious? It was my negligence that caused the princess's accidental injury. If Dugu doesn't mind, why don't we go to the palace to visit the princess today?"
Lu Hui immediately joined in, "Your Highness Prince Duan is right. If we drink at the palace, the prince can take care of the princess, and the princess won't have to worry about you getting drunk outside. Isn't that killing two birds with one stone?"
"Prince Wu Ling will not be reluctant to part with the fine wine in his mansion?"
Dugu Yu frowned and thought about it. This group of people seemed determined not to stop until they had a drink. If he spoiled their fun too much, it would be really disrespectful to Prince Duan.
What Lu Hui said made sense. It was not like he couldn't produce a few jars of wine.
"Of course there's no problem with you coming to my house to drink, but it can only be done at noon today. If there's too much noise in the house at night, it will affect the princess's rest and recovery."
Ling Jingxuan tried hard to hold back his laughter. Why did he feel that Dugu Yu, who was so serious in emphasizing that the princess's rest should not be disturbed, was somewhat cute?
However, when he thought that he actually found King Wu Ling cute, he felt a little disgusted.
"Don't worry, there will be no problem at noon. And I will definitely help you keep an eye on them. No one is allowed to get drunk and make a lot of noise."
Dugu Yu was finally satisfied. "Then you can come later. I'll go back and tell the kitchen to prepare the food and wine."
Not to mention Prince Duan, even the people around him were stunned. Looking at Prince Wu Ling's receding back, the corners of their mouths couldn't stop twitching.
Which prince would personally go to the kitchen to instruct on what dishes to prepare? Isn't it just a matter of finding someone to give instructions?
King Wu Ling has been really... confusing lately. It feels like he's become a completely different person!
Of course, Dugu Yu didn't need to personally give orders for preparing snacks, but Qin Qingyao would definitely not come to the table to drink with them. He had to give orders on what to cook for the princess!
After Dugu Yu returned home, he told the palace that there would be guests at noon. After quickly preparing the meal, he went to tell Qin Qingyao that someone would come to his house for lunch.
Qin Qingyao finally asked the question she was most curious about, "Since Ling Jingxuan wanted to thank you, why didn't he go to his place, but instead drank at our house?"
Dugu Yu said as if to take credit for it, "I don't want to go out with them tonight. Didn't you say someone would drug me? Let them come to my house. I want to see who dares to act presumptuously in my Wuling Palace!"
Qin Qingyao was sweating profusely. "Husband, it is said that the person who acted so recklessly in the palace was none other than me, your wife..."
You said that if you followed them to Wangjiang Tower to drink, nothing would happen. Even if you were controlled by the plot, I would never chase you there and drug you.
But if you come home... Qin Qingyao is really afraid that she will lose control of herself again...
"Qingqing, what are you thinking? Don't you want them to come home? If not..."
"No, no, no, how could that be? Am I such a stingy person? You guys drink yours, don't worry about me, I can just eat my own food in the living room."
"Then I'll have dinner with you first, and then go drink with them."
Qin Qingyao said, "Goodbye. It would be embarrassing if others knew about this. They would gossip about it."
Dugu Yu was very confident and said, "I don't care what they say."
Qin Qingyao hugged Dugu Yu's neck with amusement and kissed him twice on the face. "Be good, you are the prince, and you are the host. It's not right to leave the guests aside. Don't let people say that our palace doesn't know the rules, okay?"
"oh."
Qin Qingyao reached out and patted Dugu Yu's head, and then was suddenly hugged tightly and took two deep breaths...
Prince Duan and his men came very enthusiastically, and although they said there were no women, they came with women.
They had said they were coming to see the princess's injuries, but it wouldn't be appropriate for a group of grown men to come and see her, right? So they very considerately called Lin Xiafeng, Ming Ruoxi, and Qi Luoyuan along.
This seems to be more polite.
They didn't call Princess Anli because it was said that she was also recuperating in the palace. In order not to give Prince Yi's Palace any chance to talk, they visited Princess Wuling here at noon, and in the evening they had to go to Prince Yi's Palace to visit Princess Anli.
This way we treat everyone equally!
So, in order to accommodate Dugu Yu, they went through a lot of trouble to have a drink. If Dugu Yu made any further suggestions, it would seem that he was very ungrateful.
But Dugu Yu really has an opinion. Wasn’t it agreed that there would be no women?
