Chapter 864 The Nightmare Comes Again
The maid Yunxiang was standing by the couch, looking at Da Ye’s smile so hard that she was so angry that she felt a little panicked.
This second lady is afraid that she is really out of reach. She is so sick that she can't speak on weekdays, but when she hears that the third lady is gone, she can actually laugh out loud. Although her voice is hoarse as a man and sounds like a ghost, she is at least better than being unable to speak during the day.
But she didn't think this was a sign of improvement, but instead felt it was a bit like a reflection of the reflex. It was the news of the third lady's death that stimulated her nerves, so she was temporarily cheered up. However, this dead air could not be concealed. No matter how good the news was, it could not offset the fact that she was terminally ill, and no matter how good the news was, it could not take her dead air away.
The second wife has not had much time left, and Yunxiang knew that she was dragging her hands, and she couldn't guarantee that Da Ye could see the sun tomorrow. Her biggest wish now is that Da Ye could delay Da Ye for a few more days, and the funeral of the third lady is being handled. If another mistress dies at this time and the two of them die at the same time, the fame of Duke Wen's mansion will be great again.
The Guo family said that Bai Xingyan was useful, and the Duke of Wenguo still had what they wanted. Now is definitely not a good time to completely collapse the Duke of Wenguo. So the Guo family took advantage of the request of Da Ye and stuffed two concubines into the Bai family. Yunxiang knew that as long as Da Ye swallowed this tone, Li and Shao would definitely become their new master.
Bai Yanyu was happy when she died. Even though she knew she would not live long, she was happy to be able to take a cushion before she died. Moreover, Bai Yanyu's relationship with Bai Heran is still so close. Bai Yanyu's death was definitely a painful blow to Bai Heran. How could this make her unhappy?
But Da Ye's heart became sad again.
She began to think about her body, saying that she was still sober at the moment. She wanted to think carefully about why she suddenly became like this. But Bai Zhenzhen was angry at the door of the mansion and vomited blood. How could she become so sick?
She began to suspect that the people around her were the first to bear the brunt of Yunxiang. This maid was the one she trusted the most because she came from the Guo family, so she never had any precautions against Yunxiang. She would let Yunxiang know anything that even if she was seriously ill, she was always waiting by her side. Of course, except for the occasional Shaw Brothers of Lee, and occasionally Meiguo.
Da Ye looked at Yunxiang, and the more he looked at him, the more he felt that this girl was deeply thoughtful, and the more he looked at her, the more he felt that this girl was very suspicious.
Her eyes made Yunxiang feel so swollen. Yunxiang could almost guess Daye's psychology, but she didn't want to defend herself, because it was meaningless to argue anything now. So what if you doubt it? So what if you don't doubt it? This person is not far from death. She was a waste of her words and saying more. But Yunxiang was also thinking about the same question as Daye: Why is this disease so serious? What exactly caused this?
There is another fragrance that penetrates the cracks of the window and doors. It is light and will make people feel very smelly.
She knew that the eldest young master was burning incense again. The incense for two hours a day has not stopped in the past few days. It was said that it was to pray for his wife, but since he burned the incense, his wife's illness not only did not recover, but instead became worse and worse.
Yunxiang's heart skipped a beat and her eyes suddenly widened. She seemed to understand the reason why Da Ye couldn't afford to get sick, but she didn't dare to think about it. After all, they are mother and son! But other than that, what other reasons can explain Da Ye's illness?
But then again, what is the motivation for the eldest young master to do this?
Bai Huayan was confused and couldn't sleep well. The ghost stories told by Qingcao lined up in her dreams. After struggling for a long time, she finally couldn't hold on. She woke up with a shock.
But after waking up, she found that the atmosphere was even more terrifying than when she was asleep. Because the funeral was being held in the mansion, all the yards were hung with white cloth, and she was no exception. Bai Huayan opened her eyes and saw a big white flower by the window, which scared her so much that she almost fainted.
Qingcao quickly comforted her and told her that the mansion was holding a funeral for the third lady. Bai Huayan suddenly became energetic, jumped high and got off the ground, shouting that she wanted to go to watch the fun and see what Bai Yanyu had died like.
But when she heard that Bai Yanyu's body was not found and was still soaked in Yunmeng Lake, she no longer had the courage to watch the fun. She rolled onto the ground and crawled onto the bed, covered the quilt on her head, and kept muttering: Don't come to find me, don't come to find me, this time it wasn't me who harmed you, you fell into the lake by yourself, it's not my business.
Qingcao thought that this was because she knew that the fifth lady had never left the house, and the third lady's death really had nothing to do with her. Otherwise, for the fifth lady's behavior, I would personally suspect that the third lady was killed by her.
Qingcao felt a little sad. The third lady was very good. She said nothing but disappeared, and it was not so weird. The master only said that she would hold a funeral, but she didn't say a word to check why the third lady fell into the lake. She only knew that she was crying sadly, but she never thought about comforting Aunt Lin who fainted several times in Xiangyuan.
This Wenguo Duke Mansion is abnormal, but it will be abnormal from the master.
That night, the entire Wenguo Duke's Mansion was not peaceful except for Jinrong Courtyard.
Mrs. Li was forced to burn paper, and then hurried back to her yard. She wanted to sleep for a while but couldn't fall asleep. The more she thought about Bai Yanyu's affairs, the more she became more afraid, so she simply went to Shaw's house and slept with Shaw's.
Bai Xingyan was still staying in Wutong Garden, frightened, dreaming and waking up for a while, and never calmed down for a moment.
Before going to bed, Fusheng told him that he had inquired about the second lady's news. Someone saw that the second lady came into the city and came back with the fifth prince. He seemed to be injured and was carried by the fifth prince. He didn't know what happened later, and he didn't know where the second lady went.
Bai Xingyan felt a thrill in his heart. When he returned to Beijing with the fifth prince, why did the two of them get together? Didn’t Bai Heran hate the fifth prince? Are they not enemies? How could they come back with one on their backs?
How can I not have nightmares when I sleep with such questions? The most terrifying thing is that in this nightmare, he was soaked in water again, just like before, whether it was a dream or a waking up, he was dragged out of Wutong Garden and dragged to the edge of Yunmeng Lake, and then someone picked up his feet, and pierced his head down into the ice hole.
Bai Xingyan felt that he was about to die. The water in Yunmeng Lake was ice and black, as terrifying as a bottomless abyss. Every time he plunged into the water, he felt like he had entered hell and could never be restored.
He was so familiar with this feeling that before Bai Heran found Hongwang, he experienced such a terrible disaster almost every night.
Be conscious, knowing that you are being dragged away by someone, knowing that you are being thrown into the water. But you can't struggle, resist, or speak, and you can't even open your eyes. You are half-wakeful, half-clear and half-confused, until you wake up the next day, if you didn't see the water all over your body, you still can't tell whether it's a real experience or a dream.
I thought that with Hongwang's return, as he confessed to Bai Heran that he had to drown the child because of the incident between Concubine Li Xian and the fifth prince. Bai Heran had already forgiven him and no longer tormented him like this.
But unexpectedly, this experience came back this night and experienced it again, which made him miserable.
The water of Yunmeng Lake is particularly cold, and it is so cold that Bai Xingyan feels extremely frightened when he thinks of his third daughter. When he thinks that his third daughter is still in a corner of Yunmeng Lake at this moment, he doesn't know where to soak in Yunmeng Lake.
Unfortunately, in the dream, who can wake him up? No matter how cold or afraid he is, he will suffer. Until the person who was holding his ankle was full of appetite, he dragged him up again, dragged him back from Yunmeng Lake back to Wutong Garden, and then threw him back to the bed.
Bai Xingyan fell asleep again in a daze. When he woke up again, he struggled to sit up before dawn, and then he realized that his whole body was hurt. There were injuries caused by those slaves on his body, and now he felt that the original injuries were even more painful.
I remembered the nightmare just now. He was dragged to Yunmeng Lake. He was sunk into the lake. He was picked up again. He was dragged to him.
He reached out and touched himself, touched the bed, it was all wet, and his heart was cold at that time.
It's over, this is the Tao again. Bai Heran is not coming back. She has been back tomorrow, but she hasn't shown up and has been secretly trying to use her ultimate move! Okay, the ultimate move is still an old trick, an old trick that he will never forget.
Bai Xingyan was scared. He had experienced the despair of trying hard to wake up but couldn't wake up anyway, and also the fear of not knowing whether it was a dream or reality. He didn't want to do it again. If he had thought that there would be such an incident, he would never push Bai Yanyu into the lake and drown him. Even if he strangled him to death with his own hands and dug a hole and buried him, he would not have chosen this way of death!
Bai Xingyan regretted it. He killed the wrong way, but how could he forget this?
Now that he was finished, Bai Heran's evil girl gave him this trick. When is this the leader? He wouldn't be soaked in water every night, and he's till he dies? Hongwang's matter has been solved for half a year, and he has only been sleeping for half a year. Is it going to be repeated because of Bai Yanyu's death?
Fusheng! Fusheng! He opened his throat and shouted, Fusheng, Fusheng!
Outside the door, Fu Shengfulai ran in together. Since this incident happened, the two of them had basically never slept. As soon as they closed their eyes, they looked at Bai Yanyu, or it was the beginning of spring. In addition, Bai Xingyan was not at ease, so the two of them simply stopped sleeping and stayed outside Bai Xingyan's door, and could still gain a reputation of loyalty to protect the Lord.
Seeing that both of them came in, Bai Xingyan breathed a sigh of relief and waved to them: Come here, I have something to do with you.
