There is a happy inn in the capital.

Chapter 236 Yu Ying Returns to Beijing

The next day, Li Shuchen woke up feeling great and squatted in the yard brushing her teeth.

Then Yiling walked in carrying a small basket.

Li Shuchen stared at the small basket and grinned, then spoke directly.

"Yiling, you can come whenever you want, but you don't need to bring me anything delicious. I'm not greedy."

They don't care whether they've swallowed the foam or not.

Upon hearing this, Yi Ling stopped in her tracks, her face slightly flushed, and said, "Shu Chen, there's no food in here. If you want something to eat, I'll give you a hundred taels of silver. You can go buy it yourself, okay?"

Li Shuchen frowned after hearing this. "If it's not food, then what is it?"

After quickly washing up, I jogged to the pavilion and rummaged through the basket...

"Yiling, what are you embroidering this red cloth for? And you brought all sorts of different colored threads, are you going to make a pillow for it?"

Upon hearing this, Yiling blushed even more and whispered, "I'm embroidering a red veil."

Upon hearing this, Li Shuchen quickly withdrew his hand from the red cloth: "What, a red veil? Is it the red veil worn by the bride on her wedding day?"

Yiling blushed and nodded.

After understanding, Li Shuchen chuckled and sat down.

"You have to embroider the red veil yourself? I thought it was done by embroiderers."

Yi Ling smiled and said, "On the wedding day, all the brides' red veils are embroidered by the brides themselves, symbolizing a happy and fulfilling marriage, and cannot be done by someone else."

Li Shuchen nodded, resting her chin on her hand: "Oh, I see."

Glug~ Glug glug~~

Li Shuchen's stomach kept rumbling, and he laughed awkwardly.

"Yiling, you've arrived so early. Have you had breakfast yet?"

Yiling took out a silver note from her waist and said, "I've already used it. Shuchen, take this hundred taels of silver to buy breakfast."

Li Shuchen pushed the silver note back: "A breakfast doesn't need a hundred taels of silver. Yiling, keep it as part of your dowry. I'm going to buy breakfast."

"it is good"

The girl, her face beaming with smiles, skipped and hopped outside. Suddenly, she was drawn to a pretty little flower, forgot her hunger, and stopped to admire it.

What beautiful flowers! May you live a peaceful and happy life.

Turning around, I suddenly found myself in a warm, broad, and strong embrace.

Li Shuchen was completely stunned and couldn't recover for a long time.

That familiar scent of moonlight... it's Yu Ying! Yu Ying is back! Thank goodness, Yu Ying is finally back!

Li Shuchen hugged Liang Yuying tightly.

Liang Yuying felt the girl in her arms respond, and her arms tightened even more.

"Cough cough cough, Yuying, it's too tight."

Hearing Li Shuchen cough, Liang Yuying hurriedly released her arm.

"sorry"

Li Shuchen smiled as he looked at the familiar face, "Yuying, you don't need to apologize to me. It's been eight months, and you're finally back."

Looking at the distinguished-looking stranger, Yiling already had a guess in her mind. She happily stood up and asked...

"Shu Chen, who is this?"

Liang Yuying looked up when she heard the voice. Where did this girl come from? And she was so alluring! She was annoyed.

Li Shuchen walked towards Yi Ling, intending to introduce the two of them.

Unexpectedly, after taking only one step, Liang Yuying grabbed him tightly.

Li Shuchen stood there helplessly and said, "Yiling, this is General Zhenshe, Liang Yuying."

Yiling received the answer and happily met Liang Yuying's gaze. She was about to bow and greet her when she noticed the unfriendly look in Liang Yuying's eyes.

This is,,,

"So it was to intimidate the General. I apologize for not greeting you properly."

Liang Yuying coldly replied, "No problem."

Yiling didn't care whether she was cold or not, and hurriedly asked

"General Liang, has the army all returned?"

Liang Yuying remained silent, unwilling to speak.

Li Shuchen tugged at Liang Yuying's sleeve.

"Yu Ying, do you have a man under your command named Song Yuhe? His martial arts skills should be quite good."

Liang Yuying lowered her head and replied, "Yes, he is a Light Cavalry General."

Li Shuchen: "A Light Cavalry General? A sixth-rank official, impressive! He's Yiling's sweetheart, and he's going to marry her after he comes back. Let's all go to their wedding banquet together then!"

Upon hearing this, Liang Yuying's expression softened considerably, and she smiled.

"it is good"

Yi Ling bowed and said, "In that case, I will not disturb your gathering any longer. I will take my leave."

Li Shuchen: "Yiling, come again when you have time."

After Yiling left

Liang Yuying suddenly felt dizzy and her body involuntarily slumped downwards.

"Yingzhu"

Upon hearing this, Li Shuchen quickly turned around and hugged him.

"Yu Ying, Yu Ying"

Liang Yuying's eyes were closed and she was unconscious.

Li Shuchen hurriedly said, "Grape, quickly go and fetch Doctor Sun."

"Yes, miss"

Li Shuchen quickly helped Liang Yuying into the house and laid her down, then used a warm cloth to wipe the cold sweat from her face.

It's all her fault for being too happy and not noticing that Yu Ying was unwell.

But why did she fall into a coma? And the timing of her return to the capital is wrong; she was supposed to arrive in the capital at the end of March. Something must have happened in between.

Li Shuchen asked the girl beside him, "I remember your name is Zizhu, right?"

Zizhu: "Yes, Miss Li."

Li Shuchen continued, "What have you been through? Why did you arrive in the capital so late?"

Zizhu nodded and remained silent.

Li Shuchen said urgently, "Speak quickly, what can't you say?"

Zizhu stammered, "Master Ying forbade us to say."

Li Shuchen raised his hand and swore: "Heaven, earth, you, and I know this. You secretly tell me, and I won't tell your mistress, I promise."

Zizhu frowned and said, "No, Miss Li, Master Ying has explicitly forbidden us from telling you."

Li Shuchen crossed his arms and snorted.

"Explicitly forbid it? If you don't tell, I'll tell Yuying when she wakes up that you've told me everything. If you do tell, I won't tell Yuying."

Zizhu stamped her foot anxiously: "It really won't work! Yingzhu also said that no matter how much Miss Li threatens us, we can't say a word!"

Li Shuchen clicked her tongue upon hearing this. Yu Ying understood her quite well, but it was no use; she was determined to find out about this.

Concentrate your mind, Little Jizi, put a Bewitching Mantra Pill into my palm.

[The Bewitching Mantra Pill has been administered; host has spent 100 taels of silver.]

Li Shuchen pinched a pill between his fingers and instantly placed it into Zizhu's mouth. He then lifted her chin, allowing the Bewitching Mantra Pill to successfully enter Zizhu's body.

Her pupils then began to dilate.

Li Shuchen asked, "Tell me, why did your Yingzhu faint?"

Zizhu: "Your Highness, Your Highness was ambushed by an assassin on your way back to the capital. A sword pierced your chest, and the wound was only an inch away from your heart."

Upon hearing this, Li Shuchen frowned deeply. An assassin could have injured Yu Ying? How skilled would an assassin have to be to do that?

"Have you caught the assassin?"

Zizhu: "No, the assassin was extremely skilled; he escaped."

Li Shuchen: "What are the characteristics of that assassin?"

Zizhu: "Yingzhu said he has a demon eye tattooed on his forehead."

Li Shuchen: "Your Yingzhu is injured, why don't you get healed before returning to the capital?"

Zizhu: "The Princess Ying returned to the capital as quickly as possible, ignoring all our advice. She only rested for five days before setting off back."

Li Shuchen: "Why? Did the Emperor give her an order?"

Zizhu: "No, it was Yingzhu herself who was in a hurry to return, and Zizhu doesn't know why."

After asking the question, Li Shuchen slapped Zizhu on the shoulder, and Zizhu instantly fainted. She caught Zizhu and placed her on the couch, whispering...

"Go to sleep, nothing just happened."
