Chapter 351 Who is the Young Master?
Chapter 351 Who is the Young Master?
Just as Daiyu was in a trance, a sharp-eyed maid suddenly noticed that her eyelids moved slightly, and she woke up. She couldn't help but exclaimed in surprise:
"Oh, look, the girl is awake!
Hurry up, hurry up and bring the girl a cup of hot tea."
As she called out, the other maids in the room all moved and quickly gathered around Daiyu's bed like a swarm of busy bees.
At this moment, Daiyu felt weak all over, but seeing so many maids surrounding her, it was not good to continue staying in bed, so she had to force herself to raise her head and try to sit up.
However, before she could fully straighten her back, the maid who had first instructed others to pour tea hurried forward.
He reached out and held her down, saying softly:
"Don't worry, young lady. Our master has specifically instructed that since you are pregnant, you should rest in bed as much as possible."
After saying this, the girl gracefully took a cup of steaming hot tea and handed it to Daiyu with a smile.
Daiyu gratefully took the tea, took two sips, and then looked at the thoughtful girl in front of her.
She had a pretty face, especially her curved eyes, which were bright and charming, making her unforgettable.
After the maids helped Daiyu wash up, everyone was about to leave.
Daiyu gently called out to the little girl who had a very charming smile and eyes.
She leaned forward slightly, and the maid saw this and quickly brought a soft backrest and placed it behind Daiyu.
After Daiyu sat down, she slowly scanned the furnishings in the room, a faint smile appeared on her lips, and then she turned to look at the girl. She asked softly:
"Little girl, can you tell me where this is?"
Upon hearing this, the little girl pursed her lips and said to Daiyu in a soft voice:
"Miss, my master has specifically instructed us servants to serve you wholeheartedly.
But you don't have to worry about other things!"
After saying this, the girl moved lightly like a lotus swaying in the wind and slowly left.
Daiyu, on the other hand, felt bewildered and lost.
The scene of that day involuntarily emerged in her mind
——The sky was filled with flying snow, the night was as dark and thick as ink, and the biting cold wind made it almost impossible for people to stand steadily, as if they would be swept away by the wind at the next moment.
Originally, she wanted to go south to find Xiangyun and the others.
However, the weather was not good and the severe cold made it difficult for her to move around during her pregnancy.
What's worse is that she was penniless at the time and didn't even have any money to carry with her.
My stomach was rumbling with hunger.
She didn't have a single ounce of silver on her, not even enough money to stay in a hotel or eat.
Daiyu subconsciously reached out to touch the gold locket inlaid with jade that she wore around her neck.
This gold lock still gleamed faintly in the dim light. I imagine it should be worth a few taels of silver...
She secretly thought about finding a pawnshop to exchange the gold lock for cash as an emergency measure.
But today is the first day of the Lunar New Year, and every household is celebrating the festival. She walked all day, and found that all the shops on both sides of the street were closed without exception.
Just when she was filled with melancholy, suddenly, a faint shouting voice came into her ears.
She subconsciously raised her head and looked around, and saw that Baoyu was walking towards her!
In an instant, Daiyu felt like being struck by lightning, her heart instantly rose to her throat, and a feeling of panic instantly filled her entire heart.
She was afraid that he would notice how miserable she was, so she quickly turned around and dodged into an alley.
However, perhaps because he was too nervous or did not eat properly, he had only walked a few steps when his eyes suddenly started spinning and he fainted without any warning.
She seemed to be in a chaotic and misty world, her consciousness was blurred, and she felt light and dazed.
In that dreamlike state, she seemed to possess a pair of nimble and light wings, allowing her to soar freely in the vast sky.
Daiyu felt just as she was in a daze when a pair of warm hands kept touching her forehead.
As if she was meeting an old friend, Daiyu was not on guard at all and slept peacefully for a long time.
Daiyu then remembered what happened in the palace. She was framed for no apparent reason and then kicked out...
The forced smile on her face was no longer visible, and she was still in tears!
Not for anything else, just for the man I loved in my best years!
Daiyu gently wiped her tears and looked at her bulging belly. She sobbed and said softly to the child in her belly:
"My child, you must be good and make your mother proud!"
After a while, the maids brought Daiyu food, cakes, and rice dumplings made with fermented glutinous rice for the New Year...
After a while, Daiyu had finished her meal, and the pretty little girl told Daiyu her name was Furong. After Furong helped Daiyu take some pregnancy-maintaining medicine, she fell asleep quietly again.
At the Prince of Beijing's Mansion, the eldest wife and her companions arranged shifts to attend to the prince's illness.
It happened that the eldest wife was serving us tonight.
She sat on a chair beside the bed, looking at the drowsy, pale prince.
The prince has been in a coma for several days. Today, the emperor sent a royal physician over. The physician smiled and said:
"The prince's fever has subsided. He will wake up in a few hours!"
The eldest wife gently touched the prince's forehead, then touched her own forehead, muttering to herself:
"Hmm, it seems the fever has gone down!"
So she fed the prince a glass of water, then lay down beside his bed and fell asleep in a daze.
The prince lay quietly on the sickbed, his face as pale as paper, his eyes closed, still in a coma.
At this moment, he seemed to be in a strange and terrifying dream, and felt like he had fallen into a bottomless ice cave.
Then he felt like he was in the crater of a blazing volcano, burning him painfully.
This torture of ice and fire made the prince feel as if all his essence had been drained away, and he floated lifelessly in the air.
He was like a wandering soul that had lost its master, drifting around aimlessly.
Suddenly, a familiar figure appeared in front of him. It was Ruxue, whom he had not seen for a long time.
Seeing this, the prince was overjoyed and hurriedly reached out to grab Ruxue's little hand.
However, when he finally held Ruxue's hand, he found that he could not see her face clearly no matter what, and could only feel the chill emanating from her.
The anxious prince ignored everything else and anxiously shouted to Ruxue, "Ruxue, please come back soon! I miss you so much!"
However, Ruxue turned her back and slowly said:
"Your Majesty, your palace has become a distant past for Ruxue.
Ruxue now can never go back there.
My Lord, please cherish the person in front of you and don’t let others down again…”
Before she finished her words, Ruxue's figure began to gradually become blurred and disappeared into the air bit by bit.
Just like the melted snow on the ground, it disappeared without a trace in the blink of an eye, leaving no trace.
The prince shouted anxiously, "Ruxue, Ruxue, don't go!"
Unexpectedly, this loud shouting woke up the eldest wife beside him: Ruxue, wasn't that my fault? She died in childbirth...
The eldest wife was so frightened that her soul was scared out of her body. In this quiet night, it seemed as if there were a pair of sharp eyes staring at her outside. The eldest wife couldn't help but shiver.
