Chapter 328: Leaving Letter
"Xiaomeng, come and drink the Anshen Soup." Jing Yisu used a spoon to cool down and handed it to Dugu Xiaomeng's mouth.
Dugu Xiaomeng put the soup spoon and the soup bowl on the tea stool, "Auntie, I'm pretty good now. I don't need to calm my mind. Is it better for my aunt? I should also drink more calming my mind soup to nourish my body."
"Auntie is pretty good. Don't worry, Xiaomeng, it's your father..." Jing Yisu immediately turned from joy to sadness and she burst into tears. She was very worried about Dugu Ruyuan these days, and she couldn't think of tea and meal all day long and couldn't sleep at night.
"Auntie, don't Dad believe me yet?" Dugu Xiaomeng was also very worried. She had already been begging the prince once, but there was no news.
"There is no news at all, especially Concubine Jing is also missing. Your aunt is now very lonely and helpless." Jing Yisu became more and more sad as she spoke, and she actually cried in her arms.
"Auntie, don't cry? I've been begging the prince once before, and my father should be back soon." Dugu Xiaomeng comforted, but she wasn't sure when her father would be released from the underworld.
"When did you go? Why don't you tell me?" Jing Yisu immediately stopped crying. She didn't want Dugu Xiaomeng to have any contact with the prince. Although there were many uncertain factors about the marriage, as long as there was a little hope, she wanted to work hard for her beloved daughter's lifelong happiness, so she could not allow Dugu Xiaomeng and the prince to have any feelings, not a single thing.
"Just a few days ago, I didn't know if the prince would agree to help me, so I didn't tell my aunt."
"Xiaomeng should stay in the mansion to prepare for the marriage. Don't think about anything else. With the aunt here, don't worry about everything." Jing Yisu regained her calmness and rationality, and she had to follow the original plan.
"Auntie, our previous plan..." Dugu Xiaomeng was afraid that Concubine Jing would not be able to find it, so she would have lost her plan.
"It's going as usual, Xiaomeng doesn't have to worry, just take care of yourself, just leave the rest of the matter to your aunt." Jing Yisu nodded vigorously as if comforting herself.
"Auntie, I'll beg the prince again?" Dugu Xiaomeng didn't give up. Now she couldn't count on anyone except Shen Yiyu.
"No, don't go, there's an aunt, when my sister returns to the palace, everything will be on track." Jing Yisu patted Dugu Xiaomeng's shoulder and comforted her.
"Okay." Dugu Xiaomeng saw the dazedness in her aunt's eyes. She didn't believe that the marriage could still proceed according to the original plan. At this moment, she could only choose to leave and could not wait so hopelessly.
So Dugu Xiaomeng picked up a pen and wrote a letter from Feng Li's home, which was considered an explanation and a confession. Her heart was full of her dissatisfaction with the marriage. Let's go out for the time being to relax. Don't worry about her or look for her. If she adjusts her mood, she will naturally come back.
Dugu Xiaomeng simply packed up some clothes and placed the letter on the bed, and immediately left Dugu Mansion. At this moment, the more she was away from Dugu Mansion, the more she felt more comfortable, as if the imprisoned bird had finally escaped from the cage.
Dugu Xiaomeng wandered in the market with joy, curious about the delicious food and fun. She hadn't felt this relaxed feeling for a long time. When others saw her carrying a small bag, they always asked her if she came from another place and whether to recommend the emperor to her for fun. She also felt that her words and deeds were a bit too obvious, so she should find a place to stay quietly, so she was going to the prince's mansion for another trip.
"Brother Prince, are you busy?" Dugu Xiaomeng tiptoed into the prince's bedroom.
"Xiaomeng, why are you here?" Shen Yiyu was still staying in bed, but he didn't expect that he would be blocked in the quilt by Dugu Xiaomeng.
"Brother, how did I ask you last time?" Dugu Xiaomeng and Shen Yiyu were separated by only one screen.
"Ah, I've been begging my elder brother before, I'm waiting for the letter, don't come in~" Shen Yiyu saw that Dugu Xiaomeng had no intention of stopping, and he stopped him while wearing clothes.
"Okay, I just want to inquire about the situation, and I have no intention of urging my brother." Dugu Xiaomeng explained in a low voice.
"Who can't be in a hurry if my father encounters such a thing?" Shen Yiyu understood Dugu Xiaomeng's anxious mood.
"Brother, I'm really worried, otherwise I wouldn't have come to the prince's mansion to disturb my brother's purity." Dugu Xiaomeng stroked the bag on his shoulders and looked at Shen Yiyu pitifully.
"Sister, are you?" Shen Yiyu was confused.
"Brother, I just had a fight with my aunt, and I ran out in anger for a moment. I was desperate and came to ask for help from you." Dugu Xiaomeng became more and more aggrieved as she spoke, and she began to shed tears. She understood that the prince could not stand the pity of a woman, so she had to pretend to be weak and weak to make him sympathize.
"If my sister doesn't dislike it, I'll stay in my mansion for a while. I'll find a way to pick up Lord Dugu from the underworld as soon as possible, so that you can return to the mansion openly." Shen Yiyu thought Dugu Xiaomeng was bullied by her aunt to the point of running away from home because her father was not in the mansion.
"Brother is so considerate. I'm not polite to me. For a while, I have no other place to accommodate, so I'll bother me." Dugu Xiaomeng clasped her fists and thanked her. She wanted to stay in the prince's mansion, to find a safe and reliable residence, and to watch the prince's movements well. She felt that if the prince was willing to work hard for her father, she would have been released from the underworld long ago.
"Sister, have you had breakfast?" Shen Yiyu rubbed his eyes and walked out from behind the screen. On weekdays, he was a close maid changing clothes for him. Today, Dugu Xiaomeng caught him, so he had to change clothes by himself.
"Not yet, Guang was angry early in the morning." Dugu Xiaomeng pretended to be angry.
"Then let's have breakfast first, and then my sister will accompany me to listen to the play? I have made another new movie, and I haven't rehearsed it yet." As soon as Shen Yiyu mentioned his play, his eyes were shining.
"Brother Yu, didn't you just agree to help me find out about my father's situation?" Dugu Xiaomeng pouted and glared at Shen Yiyu.
"Look at me, I forgot what I said, sister, don't mind, my memory is really not very good now." Shen Yiyu could only keep the things he was interested in in mind.
For people and things, there is no one who cannot remember, but only about things that do not care about.
"The noble man forgets things more. As the crown prince, his brother is naturally a little busier than ordinary people." Dugu Xiaomeng helped him find a reason. Although she didn't even believe that Shen Yiyu could be busy with the important things, she felt that maybe he would throw this matter behind his mind when he came to beg the crown prince last time.
"Sister, then this is the case. I immediately go to the palace to beg my father. You just have breakfast and then have a good rest." Shen Yiyu said seriously.
"Not eating breakfast is bad for your health, brother, don't be in a hurry." Although Dugu Xiaomeng was already anxious, she could only show her calmness.
