Chapter 45 Falling into a Dream



After traveling for half a month, Cheng Yan finally returned to the imperial city, and the carriage stopped in front of Prince Cheng's mansion.

"Master, we have arrived at the palace." A figure outside the carriage said.

Cheng Yan was startled awake and subconsciously looked down at the person in his arms. Seeing that Lin Mo was still unconscious, he felt instantly disappointed.

"Ying San, please invite the imperial physician over within a quarter of an hour." Cheng Yan carried Lin Mo out of the carriage and said coldly.

"Yes, master." Another secret guard suddenly appeared beside the carriage. Ying San disappeared again after receiving the order.

Wrapping Lin Mo in a thick cloak, Cheng Yan carried him and walked quickly into the palace. The housekeeper, who knew from the secret guards that the prince would be back today, was waiting at the door early in the morning. When he saw the prince appear, the old housekeeper's eyes instantly turned red.

"Your Highness..." The old butler hurried forward.

"Uncle Fu... have someone prepare some hot water."

Cheng Yan was very kind to Uncle Fu, who had taken care of him and his brother since childhood, but he was not in the mood to reminisce with Uncle Fu. He just told him something and then quickly walked back to his bedroom with him in his arms.

"Yingyi, wait..." Uncle Fu felt confused when he saw the prince leaving in such a hurry with someone in his arms. Seeing that the head of the shadow guards wanted to disappear in front of him again, he quickly called him.

Ying Yi: “…”

"What is the relationship between the boy in the prince's arms and the prince? How come the prince disappeared for a year and brought back a boy when he came back?" The old butler looked around and saw that there was no one, so he asked in a low voice.

Uncle Fu was also aware of the prince's disappearance at the border. A few days ago, he received news from the shadow guard that the prince would return home today, so the old housekeeper had naturally been preparing for a long time.

Unexpectedly, the prince brought back another surprise this time. I used to worry that he wouldn’t be able to marry a princess when he got older, but maybe I don’t have to worry about that now.

"That's Wang Fu." Ying Yi said concisely.

"Wang Fu?! Hey, wait a minute, why does he look so thin? And he was carried in by the prince, is he sick?" The old housekeeper was delighted when he heard this. Seeing Ying Yi wanted to leave again, he quickly stopped him and continued to ask.

The prince would definitely not tell this old man about these things. If he wants to know about that guy, he must go through the prince's shadow guard.

"Mr. Wang has been in a coma for half a month." Ying Yi said, and left immediately without waiting for the old butler to react.

“In coma for half a month?! It was so serious... why did he pass away? I haven’t finished asking. No, we have to ask the imperial physician to come and take a look..." The old butler hurried in, muttering to himself.

Before the old butler sent someone to invite the imperial physician over, he saw the imperial physician Chen from the palace being brought over by the shadow guards.

"Huh? What's wrong with you? You kidnapped me without saying a word. Do you know that you will be in danger of losing your head when the emperor finds out? You even broke into the palace wearing a mask. Are you an assassin..." The old doctor with a white beard took a few breaths and started to lecture the man without taking a good look at the surroundings.

Ying San heard his chattering. His expression couldn't be seen because of the mask, but his pursed lips showed that he was in a bad mood.

If Wang Fu's condition wasn't serious, Ying San wouldn't have brought the nagging Chen Imperial Physician here. He was simply annoying, just like the old housekeeper.

Of course, no one knows Ying San’s inner thoughts.

"Master, the imperial physician has been invited." Ying San fixed the imperial physician Chen who was moving around with one hand, raised his hand to knock on the door and said in a cold voice.

"Let him in." Cheng Yan's voice came from inside the room.

"Imperial Physician Chen, thank you for coming here. Our prince's condition is a bit special, so the prince asked you to come here so urgently." The old butler who came over waved his hand and asked Ying San to leave first, then explained to Imperial Physician Chen.

"So it's Butler Fu. Since His Royal Highness Prince Cheng asked me to come, it's fine." The old imperial physician took a closer look and realized that it was the butler of Prince Cheng's mansion. He also knew where this place was.

Prince Cheng is the younger brother of the current emperor, and the emperor will not refuse any request from Prince Cheng. Besides, Prince Cheng is tyrannical, and except for the emperor and His Highness Jin Yuan, he is cold to everyone else. Naturally, the old imperial physician dare not act rashly in front of His Highness Prince Cheng.

However, shouldn't His Royal Highness Prince Cheng be outside the Great Wall at this time? It would be fine if he came back, but he actually brought back the prince's wife. The old imperial physician wanted to see what kind of boy would like Prince Cheng, who could stop a child from crying.

After Cheng Yan wiped Lin Mo's clothes, he carried him back to the bed and let him lean on him. After covering him with a quilt, he wiped his hair gently.

After his hair was dried, she carefully put him down. Not long after, Imperial Physician Chen opened the door and came in.

"Your Highness Prince Cheng." Old Imperial Physician Chen walked in with a medicine box slung over his shoulder, stopped not far from him and saluted.

"Well, come and see how he is." Cheng Yan said coldly without looking at him.

The old imperial physician looked up at His Royal Highness Prince Cheng who was sitting beside the bed and hurried over.

After the imperial physician left, Cheng Yan's straight back instantly bent down. Cheng Yan buried his face in his palm, and a decadent atmosphere surrounded him.

"Momo... please wake up soon..."

After Lin Mo dealt with everyone, he felt himself leaving his body, and then floated away before he could react.

Where to go next? The underworld? It is said that people who have killed many people will go to hell after death. Perhaps, he will go to the eighteenth level of hell... Lin Mo allowed an unknown force to pull him forward.

It doesn't matter if he goes to hell, he has to go and see if the dead are there, so that he won't have to worry about toys in the future. Lin Mo's mouth corners slightly raised, and the scarlet in his eyes became brighter.

After floating for an unknown amount of time, Lin Mo suddenly saw a bright light in front of his eyes, which made him close his eyes. When he felt that the glare was no longer there, Lin Mo opened his eyes, but after seeing everything in front of him, he froze.

The scarlet in Lin Mo's eyes slowly faded away, the corners of his lips that had been raised slowly dropped, and the strange aura surrounding him instantly disappeared.

"Momo, where are you hiding again? Big brother is home, come out quickly!"

Lin Mo was awakened by the sudden sound and ran towards the sound uncontrollably.

The second brother's voice...

When Lin Mo saw the familiar figure, his nose felt sore and his vision gradually blurred, "Second brother..."

"What's wrong? Momo, why are you crying? Were you bullied by someone at school?" The young man in a white suit saw his younger brother and walked over quickly. Seeing his younger brother crying, Lin Xiu panicked instantly and hurriedly helped wipe the tears from his face.

"I just fell asleep in the garden and had a dream. I dreamt that my eldest brother and second brother left me and I chased them but I couldn't catch up with you..." Lin Mo hugged his second brother and choked up.

"Momo, be good. Dreams are the opposite of what they used to be. How could your eldest and second brothers abandon you?" The young man touched his brother's head and comforted him gently.

"Momo, why are you crying?" a deep voice sounded.

"Brother..." Lin Mo looked up and saw his brother in military uniform walking towards him.

Lin Mo raised his hand to wipe away his tears, walked over to hug his brother, rubbed his brother's clothes, and wiped away the tears that were about to fall.

"Momo had a nightmare just now. He dreamed that we abandoned him." The second brother came over and said helplessly.

"I won't abandon you." The eldest brother touched Lin Mo's head and comforted him. His voice was cold, but Lin Mo felt very warm.

Yes, I won’t abandon you. Even if you turn into a zombie, you will still remember to come find me... Lin Mo rested his head on his eldest brother’s shoulder, smiling and crying.

"Okay, Dad and Mom made dinner tonight, let's go back quickly." said the second brother.

"Hmm..." Lin Mo wiped away his tears and slowly let go of his brother's hand.

Lin Mo followed his two brothers out of the garden, but subconsciously looked back when he walked into the door of the villa.

"Momo, what are you looking at?"

"No, maybe I was too sleepy..." Lin Mo turned around and shook his head, then suppressed the discomfort in his heart and walked into the house with his second brother.

He must have been half asleep, otherwise how could he feel that someone was waiting for him? His two brothers and his parents were all at home.

He must have fallen asleep, Lin Mo said to himself. At this moment, he only remembered that he had dealt with all his enemies and was then sent back to his family by some force.

Outside the bedroom, the maid brought out the food intact, and seeing the old butler standing outside the door, she knelt down to greet him.

"Your Highness still doesn't want to eat?" asked the old butler, after taking a look at the food in the maid's hand.

In fact, you can tell without asking that the positions of the items on the plate have not changed.

The old housekeeper waved her hand to let her leave, then opened the door and walked in quietly.

"Your Highness, there is news from the palace that the Emperor is summoning you." The old butler stopped not far from Cheng Yan and said softly.

"...I understand. Uncle Fu, please go out first." Cheng Yan held Lin Mo's hand, motionless, and it took him a long time to come back to his senses.

"Your Highness, please listen to my advice. You haven't slept for three days. If you continue like this, your body will not be able to bear it. You don't want to collapse when your husband wakes up, do you?" The old butler hesitated for a long time, and finally couldn't help but speak out.

Uncle Fu felt a little resentful towards Lin Mo who was lying on the bed. If it weren't for this brother, the prince wouldn't have become like this. The emperor probably knew about the prince's current situation. He might have to consider the position of the prince's wife. Besides, he wasn't on the royal jade plate.

"Well, go out." There was no emotion in Cheng Yan's voice.

The old butler couldn't say much and could only leave first.

"Momo...you've been sleeping for so long, why don't you wake up?" Cheng Yan said in a hoarse voice.

Lin Mo, who was making dumplings with his elder and second brothers, paused, looked around, his eyes blank.

"Momo, what's wrong? What are you looking for?" The second brother tilted his head and asked in confusion.

"I felt like someone was calling me just now..." Lin Mo said hesitantly, and the voice was quite familiar, as if he had heard it somewhere before.

"You must be hallucinating. Who is calling you?" the second brother laughed.

"Maybe..." Lin Mo nodded, but he felt a little uncomfortable in his heart, as if he had forgotten something important.

After finishing dinner with his family, Lin Mo prepared to go upstairs to rest.

"Momo, the weather will get cold tonight, remember to turn on the air conditioner." The eldest brother reminded.

"Momo, put your hands in here, I'll warm them up for you..."

When Lin Mo heard his elder brother's words, a familiar voice suddenly rang in his mind. He blinked his eyes, and tears fell without warning, dripping onto the back of his hand.

Lin Mo lowered his head and looked at the wetness on the back of his hand, his eyes somewhat confused.

"Momo, did you hear that?" the eldest brother asked.

"Got it, big brother." Lin Mo put down his hand, responded without turning back, and continued to go upstairs.

Did he forget someone important? I always feel uncomfortable every time I hear that voice.
