Chapter 274 Entering Yilian’s Dream
Jingzhe couldn't remember how many times his prince had asked this question.
He reaffirmed, "I have confirmed with the capital that the emperor is fine and not unconscious."
There was no sound in the carriage again.
Shi Yu hugged Wei Qingyan with a worried look on his face.
In the past, Xiao Yan lost his seal of merit and would fall into a coma due to loss of vitality. As long as he had skin contact with her, he could replenish his vitality and wake up.
Now that the Seal of Merit is on Xiao Yan's body, there should be no loss of vitality. Even if vitality is lost, the Seal of Merit can replenish it in time.
Therefore, he repeatedly asked the emperor whether he was okay. If he was unconscious due to loss of vitality, even the Merit Seal could not make up for it, and the emperor would definitely be affected.
But now the emperor is fine, which means Xiao Yan is in a coma and has nothing to do with his life.
Was he drowsy because he was exhausted? But if so, it had been five days, and he should have gotten enough sleep to recover.
Faced with Wei Qingyan's unknown coma, he was helpless.
Gently stroking Wei Qingyan's face, he coaxed her in a low voice, "Xiaoyan, wake up now that you've had a good sleep. Your husband is timid and can't stand being frightened."
For the first time, he realized his own weakness and felt extremely frustrated.
Ordinary doctors were of no use to Xiao Yan, and without the seal of merit, he was also of no use to Xiao Yan.
The only thing he could do now was to take Xiao Yan back to the capital as soon as possible, hoping that the emperor's purple aura could wake Xiao Yan up.
"Faster!"
He gave an order outside the carriage, closed his eyes and hugged the person in his arms tighter.
Jingzhe knew that the prince was anxious, so he took over the position of the groom himself. With a whip, the whole team sped up.
Leng San led the National Protection Army and escorted Ge Feizhou and others to follow behind the team. Seeing that the people in front were speeding up, they also sped up.
This time he left the capital in the name of suppressing bandits, but in fact he was protecting the Crown Princess.
But that day, the Crown Princess ordered him to be responsible for capturing Ge Feizhou and others to report to the bandits, while she and Prince Rong went to chase Princess Yanran.
When he came back, the Crown Princess was unconscious and Princess Yanran was nowhere to be seen.
Prince Rong explained that Princess Yanran went to Ganzhou to seek medical treatment, but encountered bandits on the way and was killed by them, with no trace of her body left.
How could he be fooled so easily? He secretly investigated and found that Princess Yanran, whose face was disfigured, was half-dead. She was being watched by the secret guards of Prince Rong's Mansion and was hiding in Lord Yu's carriage.
Being a straightforward person, he wanted to get to the bottom of it.
Prince Rong only told him that when the Crown Princess woke up, she would tell him everything, and now he just had to obey his orders.
He followed the order given by the Crown Princess before she fell into a coma and escorted the "bandit" back to the capital.
But several days have passed and the Crown Princess has not woken up yet. What happened to her?
Leng San's brows were furrowed with anxiety.
Wei Qingyan, who was worried about by everyone, slept in a daze and didn't know how long he had been sleeping.
When she woke up, she was standing under an apricot tree with a small ball on the ground in front of her.
The little girl turned her back to him, digging the ground with her bottom sticking out, muttering, "Wait until I set up a formation and bury Daddy's hair here, then Daddy will love me as much as he loves my brothers.
By then, Daddy will definitely hold me in his arms. Maybe if he’s happy he’ll even give me a name. With a name, they won’t yell at me or call me that motherless dog.
But how can I get Daddy’s hair…”
The little dumpling kept mumbling, seeming a little distressed.
Wei Qingyan listened attentively for a while and asked, "What are you doing?"
The little girl stopped what she was doing, looked up at the source of the voice, pursed her lips and said nothing.
He was not looking in the direction of Wei Qingyan, but at a boy of eight or nine years old not far away. The boy asked Wei Qingyan the same question.
Seeing that the little dumpling didn't answer, he smiled and said, "Tell me what you are doing, maybe I can help you get daddy's hair."
Little Dumpling recognized the boy, who was his father's favorite son.
Hearing this, his brows lit up with joy, "Really?"
The boy nodded. "Of course. When Daddy was at home, I would go to his room every day to pay my respects. It wouldn't be difficult to get his hair."
This made the little girl look gloomy. "When Daddy likes me, I can go to his room every day..."
Thinking of something, he asked, "Will you really help me get Daddy's hair?"
The boy nodded. "I'm your brother. I keep my word. Of course I'll help you."
"Then lower your head." The little boy stood up, walked to the boy, and whispered on tiptoe, "I want to make a formation that will make Dad like it..."
A gleam of light flashed across the boy's eyes. After listening, he patted the little boy's shoulder and said, "Although it's a bit absurd, you are my brother. I will definitely get the hair for you."
Wei Qingyan had already seen the little girl's appearance clearly at this time. The red lotus between his eyebrows made Wei Qingyan realize that this was the lotus from his childhood.
Then this boy must be the late Emperor Shi Dehou who deceived Yilian. She hurriedly said to the little girl, "Don't listen to him, he is lying to you."
But no one could hear what she said.
She could only follow the boy into another courtyard, and sure enough, she saw the boy pulling two strands of hair from an old servant's head.
After getting the hair, the little girl happily buried it in the dug hole and carefully filled the hole with soil.
That night, he giggled several times in his sleep.
The next day, he followed the boy to his father's yard, hoping the formation would work. He followed the boy and crisply called out, "Daddy."
The man who was called "Daddy" froze, and then his face turned cold. He shouted at the little boy, "Get out."
The smile in the little girl's eyes turned into loss, and then turned into mist. As she climbed over the high threshold, tears fell on it.
Perhaps the threshold was too high, or perhaps it was uncomfortable, but the little boy fell to the ground when he climbed over it. The old servant whose hair had been pulled out couldn't bear it, so he hurried forward, picked him up, and brushed the dust off his clothes.
The boy saw everything.
At night, he secretly went to Xiaotuanzi's room and asked, "Is there something wrong with your formation?"
The little boy shook his head blankly. He didn't know either. He only knew that this formation had this function.
The boy handed him a bag of snacks and soothed him, "It's okay, let's try a few more times. You tell me what to do and I'll help you. Even if you fail, you still have me. I'll treat you well in the future."
After the boy saw the change in the old servant's attitude towards the little girl, he no longer dared to give the little girl hair from his family members, and instead brought in hair from outside.
Little Tuanzi was locked up at home all day long and had no contact with people outside, so naturally he had no idea that he had been deceived by his so-called brother.
Wei Qingyan looked angry and anxious.
Shi Dehou is such a bad bastard at such a young age. I really want to beat him up.
But she understood that she was dreaming of Yilian's childhood. In this dream, she was just a spectator and could do nothing.
So, she could only watch Xiaotuanzi lead Shi Dehou to set up formations again and again, and watch Shi Dehou secretly practice in private.
Watching the little dumpling secretly wiping away tears because he still didn't get his father's love, and watching Shi Dehou repeatedly trying to get information from the little dumpling, trying to trick him into giving him magic.
What makes people happy is that although little Tuanzi is only three years old and has no idea about his abilities, he also knows that some things cannot be easily told to others.
Shi Dehou could only treat Xiaotuanzi better and better. Under Shi Dehou's hypocrisy, the little child became more and more trusting and dependent on the only brother who was good to him.
Wei Qingyan watched in a hurry the process of Shi Dehou deceiving all the magic skills. This shameless villain pretended to be critically ill and deceived Xiao Tuanzi into using the method of possessing another's body when Xiao Tuanzi regarded him as her only emotional support.
What puzzled Wei Qingyan was that Xiaotuanzi didn't know any witchcraft, and had never taught Shi Dehou the techniques of witchcraft. So who did he learn it from?
How did he come up with the idea of taking over Shi Yu's body, and how did he know about Shi Yu's birth, and how did he plot against Lin Jinzhi so early and make arrangements to steal the child?
