Chapter 854 That’s not a dream
Chapter 854 That’s not a dream
Shen Shuyi did not mention that he was going to Liangzhou. After all, the journey was long, and since he was injured, he couldn't help but worry.
After carefully considering his arrangements and making sure nothing was missing, Shen Shuyi lay down on the bed.
Perhaps because she was going to travel tomorrow, she had trouble sleeping.
She tossed and turned for a long time, until dawn finally approached, when she finally fell into a deep sleep.
Shen Shuyi didn't get up too early. Although she had to hurry on her way, she felt that a few days' journey wouldn't make much sense without a little more time.
*
On the other side, the Sixth Prince's Mansion.
After Xiao Tingshan vomited blood and fainted in the hall, he did not wake up for a long time.
Although Doctor Zhang and others gave him acupuncture and administered herbal medicine, his condition was still not good.
As for the poisonous insect, Xiao Tingshan never gave it to anyone because no one could be trusted. Instead, he often fed it himself.
Xiao Tingshan slept for a long time.
The only difference from before was that this time, Lou Yulan did not come to take care of her without taking off her clothes. Instead, Shen Jingyu came over to ask a few questions, gave instructions to the servants, and then left.
Lou Yulan is now distraught and hates both Shen Jingyu and Xiao Tingshan.
She had hardly seen her twin children since their third birthday. She had worked so hard and carried them for ten months, but in the end, she ended up with nothing.
Since Xiao Tingshan refused to give in, she could only look at Shen Jingyu's face. She went to pay her respects to Shen Jingyu every day and served her by her side, just hoping that she would show mercy and let her see the child once.
But even if she made Shen Jingyu very happy, she only let her take a look from a distance. Want to hug the child? That's simply a dream!
Therefore, Lou Yulan now wishes Shen Jingyu to die more than anyone else. Only when she dies will Xiao Tingshan return her children to her.
Unfortunately, Shen Jingyu was never a fool. She didn't dare to act rashly because she was afraid that if she failed, she would never see her child again, or even that Shen Jingyu would abuse her child...
Lou Yulan had lost a lot of weight, while Xiao Tingshan was immersed in a long dream.
Those disjointed dream fragments finally became connected.
He seemed to see another life of his in a dream.
In the dream, as he had planned, he failed to marry Shen Jingyu, but married Shen Shuyi as he wished. Although Shen Shuyi had no one to help her, that woman was as powerful as in this life.
Maybe he had never cared about her or loved her, and as long as he treated her well, she would be willing to work hard for him.
And in the dream, she really did so. Not only did she block the fatal sword for him, she also asked Mr. Liancheng to help him, and even planned every step for him, turning him from a frail, powerless prince into the most respected and favored son of Emperor Qianwu.
Xiao Tingshan looked at his rough yet dazzling life in the dream, and his heart was filled with emotion.
It was not until he saw that he and Lou Yulan had deceived her and raised the two children under her wing that he became increasingly dissatisfied with her and became suspicious of her.
He also saw that Xiao Mingjin poisoned her food every day, and that he became more suspicious and cold towards her because of Lou Yulan's instigation.
He saw that at the end, Emperor Qianwu was seriously ill, and when he was closest to that position, he died under the knife of King Zhao.
He died with hatred and resentment in his heart.
And so is she.
"It's not like that...it's not like that..." Xiao Tingshan shook his head desperately, trying to break free from something.
However, his face became paler and his forehead was covered with beads of sweat.
He struggled and opened his mouth with difficulty, his voice hoarse. After a long time, he finally opened his eyes and woke up from his dream.
"Your Highness!" Songbai helped him up worriedly and quickly brought him a glass of water.
Xiao Tingshan's eyes were dull and he felt dazed.
What was that dream about?
Could it be that it wasn't a dream? Was it his other life?
Xiao Tingshan started coughing violently, and Song Ren said anxiously, "The imperial physician told you to drink this bowl of medicine when you wake up."
Xiao Tingshan shook his head: "I want to go see Shen Shuyi!"
He understood, he understood why she treated him like that, why she targeted him again and again.
He couldn't figure out what he had done wrong to make her hate him so much.
It turned out that it wasn’t something he did wrong in this life, it was that dream…it was the dream in which he was wrong…no, maybe that wasn’t a dream.
Xiao Tingshan didn't know what it was, but he finally understood why Shen Shuyi hated him so much.
"Prepare the car, I want to go to Xie's house!" Xiao Tingshan said urgently.
Song Ren hesitated to speak, and all he got was: "You have to wait until dawn."
Xiao Tingshan calmed down a bit and turned to look at the sky. The night was dark and silent. It was indeed not dawn yet.
"Where's Lou Yulan? Where's Shen Jingyu! Why don't they come to take care of me when I'm so sick!" Xiao Tingshan spoke dissatisfiedly, a little irritable.
In the dream, when he was still a down-and-out prince of a marquisate, it was Shen Shuyi who took care of him without leaving him, and of course, Lou Yulan also did the same.
But now, why have they changed one by one?
"I'll go and call him right away." Song Ren said in a low voice.
"Wait, just call Lou Yulan over!" Xiao Tingshan stood up with difficulty, looking dazed.
In the dream, Shen Jingyu married Xiao Yuncheng. She died very early and never got to sit in that position as she wished.
On the contrary, Lou Yulan's love for him increased after his status as a prince was restored.
Xiao Tingshan sat on the edge of the bed, thinking about his dream in a daze.
Until Lou Yulan came slowly in a light orange dress: "Greetings, Your Highness, Your Highness asked me to come here, I wonder why..."
"Come here." Xiao Tingshan waved to her.
Lou Yulan sat obediently beside him. Xiao Tingshan held her hand and said slowly, "I'm so sick, why don't you come to take care of me?"
Lou Yulan looked a little forced, and said immediately: "I thought Your Highness was taken care of by Sister Jingyu. Now my two children are in Sister Jingyu's care, and I dare not make her unhappy..."
As she spoke, Lou Yulan lowered her eyes with tears in them, and I felt pity for her.
Unexpectedly, the next moment, Xiao Tingshan grabbed her neck fiercely, his eyes bloodshot: "Why did you instigate the relationship between me and Shuyi!"
Lou Yulan's eyes were filled with fear and she was breathing with difficulty. She didn't understand what he was saying.
Xiao Tingshan said angrily: "If it weren't for you, how could I have ended up like this!"
Lou Yulan grabbed his hand and tried to struggle free. Her face flushed: "Ahem... Your Highness... Your Highness..."
She didn't understand what he was saying!
Xiao Tingshan's eyes were filled with hatred and viciousness. He stared at Lou Yulan for a long while until her face turned purple, and then he suddenly let her go.
Lou Yulan fell to the ground, gasping and coughing heavily.
Xiao Tingshan's breathing was unstable and his condition was not much better.
He leaned against the head of the bed, closed his eyes, and thought of the dream again.
If it weren't for Lou Yulan's instigation, he wouldn't have treated Shen Shuyi like that in the first place, and now she would definitely be planning everything for him!
