Chapter 378: Even if we are ghosts, we must be husband and wife
Chapter 378: Even if we are ghosts, we must be husband and wife
Daiyu looked at her delicate face, which now looked very haggard. She kept yawning and her eyes seemed almost unable to open. She looked listless and exhausted.
Siyu is already weak, so I guess she won't be able to help much in the next few days.
As a result, during the time when she and the first wife were away from home, all the affairs of the mansion, big and small, must have fallen on Jiaorou's shoulders alone.
In addition, since the prince had gotten into this kind of trouble, Jiaorou had to take care of him day and night.
Thinking of this, Daiyu suppressed her inner sorrow, forced out a smile, and whispered to Jiaorou:
"Sister, now that I'm back, I'll take care of things here. You should go back and have some rest!"
However, Jiaorou looked at Daiyu's increasingly bulging belly. She was already six months pregnant. How could she let a pregnant woman take care of her?
She hurriedly shook her head and comforted Daiyu with a smile on her face:
"Sister, don't worry about me, I'm not tired at all.
But you, who are pregnant and tired from all the journey, need a good rest!
Go back to your room and rest in peace!"
As the two were trying to refuse each other, they suddenly heard a faint cry from the bed: "Yu'er..."
Although the sound was small, it was very clear in the quiet room.
Daiyu and Jiaorou were both startled when they heard this, and hurriedly turned around and walked quickly to the bed.
But the prince's eyes were still closed, his face was as pale as paper, only his lips were trembling slightly, as if he was still immersed in a dream.
He uttered another intermittent cry:
"Yu'er..."
Afterwards, he fell into a coma again and no longer made any sound.
Daiyu immediately grabbed the prince's hand and asked anxiously, "Master, what's wrong with you? Come and talk to Yu'er!"
Unexpectedly, no matter how Daiyu shouted, the prince fell into coma again.
Daiyu gently pushed Jiaorou out and said softly, "Sister, you'd better go and rest quickly. I'm here!"
How could Jiao Rou not know the relationship between them? They haven't seen each other for so long, and now this kind of thing happened!
She shook her head helplessly, then moved closer to Daiyu and said in a low voice:
"Sister, you are pregnant with twins now, you must not act so stubbornly!
If anything happens, be sure to call Xiao Luzi for help!"
After saying this, she looked at Daiyu tenderly and worriedly for a few times, then slowly turned around and left.
After Jiaorou left, Daiyu tiptoed to the door and closed it carefully.
When she came to the bedside, her eyes involuntarily fell on the prince.
The prince's face was as pale as paper, and his originally handsome face now looked very haggard.
Daiyu felt as if her heart was being cut by a knife, and her eyes instantly became moist.
"Your Majesty..."
Daiyu couldn't help but murmur softly. She really wanted to tell him that if she could love the prince less, she wouldn't be so miserable!
At the moment when the prince tried his best to protect himself, his figure had turned into an indestructible fortress!
As she thought about it, Daiyu slowly reached out, gently took the prince's hand, and carefully placed it on her cheek.
Feeling the faint warmth from the prince's palm, Daiyu's tears couldn't stop sliding down her cheeks, drop by drop, soon soaking the white gauze wrapped around the prince's wound.
Although she knew that the prince could not hear in his coma, Daiyu still kissed his father's forehead and whispered in his ear:
"The crescent moon shines on the nine continents!
Your Majesty, Yu'er is back!
Don’t worry, we will never be separated in this life or the next!
If you live, I live too. If you die, I will follow you and become your ghost husband and wife!"
After saying that, she picked up a chopstick, dipped it in some water and used it to moisten the prince's lips.
Afraid that the night would be cold, she took a thick quilt from the cabinet and covered the prince with it.
After a while, Daiyu also leaned against the prince and slowly fell asleep.
Cai Lian sat quietly beside the bed, her eyes fixed on Hongxuan lying on the bed.
Her eyes were a little dull. She slowly stretched out a hand and patted Hongxuan's body very stiffly, as if she wanted him to fall asleep quickly.
However, her heart had already flown away to the sky, and she was thinking silently.
"I don't know how the master is doing now?" Cai Lian was secretly worried.
She knew very well that although the First Lady had a quick temper and a strong character, she was not actually a vicious person.
On the contrary, the eldest wife just longed for the prince's love too much!
Now the rumor is all over the palace. They say that the eldest wife was unwilling to be kicked out of the palace, so she injured the prince!
At this moment, a soft whisper came from Hongxuan's mouth: "Mother..."
These two words were like a flash of lightning that streaked across the night sky, instantly striking Cai Lian's soft heart.
She quickly leaned over, put her ear close to Hongxuan's mouth, and touched Hongxuan's forehead with her hand, fearing that he was feeling unwell.
Seeing that the child was fine, she patted Hongxuan's body gently and said softly:
"Xuan'er, be good. Aunt Cailian is here with you all the time."
Not long after, Cai Lian noticed that Hong Xuan's breathing gradually became steady and rhythmic, and her originally tense face slowly relaxed.
Hongxuan has completely fallen into a sweet dream.
So, she quietly pulled over the thin blanket beside her, carefully covered Hongxuan with it, and then sat quietly by the bed.
I was secretly thinking about how to get in touch with the first wife.
Suddenly, a figure appeared in Cai Lian’s mind—Xiao Lingzi.
He was a servant and had easy access to the palace, and he also knew where the eldest wife was.
However, these days, I don’t know what Xiao Lingzi is busy with, and I haven’t seen him for a long time.
"Hey……"
Cai Lian couldn't help but sigh, feeling that the child without a mother was so pitiful!
Forget it, I'll ask Xiao Lingzi for help tomorrow.
The eldest wife was still in a coma.
She lay quietly on the bed in the inn, her eyes closed, her face as pale as paper, still in a deep coma.
It was as if I was sleeping in a nightmare from which I could not wake up.
Several maids stayed by her bedside day and night.
In the outer room, the adoptive father of the eldest wife sat on a chair with a serious expression on his face, his brows furrowed, and his eyes revealed a deep murderous intent.
He has been here for several days since the accident with the eldest lady, without closing his eyes.
These days, he spared no expense in sending his men to look for famous doctors to treat the patient.
The dagger stabbed Bijun in the heart.
The doctor tried his best to pull out the dagger, but the eldest wife remained unconscious every day, struggling to hold on with only her last breath.
When her adoptive father thought about how his young master had committed suicide because of heartbreak and lost his mind, he hated himself for being soft-hearted.
At this moment, he was pacing back and forth in the outer room in a distracted manner, holding the pipe tightly in his hand, taking big puffs, and the air was surrounded by smoke.
He hated her so much in his heart. Bijun had mentioned that vixen of a woman several times, causing the prince to indulge in revelry every night!
He hated that he hadn't torn her into pieces that day! He hated that he hadn't let her go to hell with the child!
It was she who ruined all his plans. Bijun was driven out of the palace, and now she has committed suicide! If it weren't for her...
"Sir, sir, come and see, the young lady is awake..."
The girls in the room shouted excitedly.
The eldest wife's adoptive father suddenly brightened up and shouted happily:
"Bi-jun finally woke up!"
