Chapter 299 Dreamland
Chapter 299 Dreamland
Song Yunxi herself didn't realize when her relationship with Ye Xuanke became so close that they were like bad friends.
[Is this the retribution for the crickets that taunted him too much? That can't be right? ]
Ye Xuan Ke: Do you know that you have too many crickets against me?
Ye Xuanqi watched the two of them bickering with a smile on his face. Although Ye Xuanling was envious, he couldn't get a word in.
Ever since Ye Xuanyu heard what Song Yunxi was thinking about him last time, he was so shocked that he fell ill despite his already weak constitution.
This time when he was seriously ill, his father did not send the imperial physician to Prince Huai's mansion to treat him. None of his brothers who used to visit him showed up, and even his mother did not send anyone to ask about him.
Ye Xuanyu felt that he was abandoned by everyone because of that witch Song Yunxi.
Only Song Muxue came to visit him secretly, and every time she came to cry because he was sick, her eyes turned red.
This made Ye Xuanyu even more certain that Song Muxue was the only one who truly cared about him.
He couldn't help but blame himself in his heart. After listening to the voice of that evil woman in the palace that day, he actually began to doubt Song Muxue. He deserved to die!
"Brother Yu, you fell ill because of me. You must get better soon, otherwise... otherwise I don't know how to atone for my sins."
Whenever he thought of the undisguised worry in Song Muxue's eyes, Ye Xuanyu felt warm in his heart. Even with such a weak body, he felt that life was full of hope and sunshine.
Because of Song Muxue, he has the courage to live well.
Until one day, Song Muxue came to visit him again.
Seeing that she was always frowning and worried, Ye Xuanyu was quite worried.
"Mu Xue, is Shen Zhikang treating you badly?"
Mu Xue was schemed against by the evil woman Song Yunxi, and it was already very unfair for her to marry Shen Zhikang as a concubine. If he dared to let Mu Xue down, she would never let him go even if she had to do everything she could.
"Brother Yu, you misunderstood. He treats me very well."
Especially recently, he has been very considerate to her, bringing her back to the time when their relationship was the most intimate.
Knowing that she was doing well, Ye Xuanyu felt disappointed but also happy for her.
Song Yunxi was quite troubled. "I just heard that there have been constant floods in the south this year, and Hezhou has suffered from drought, resulting in a total crop failure. Brother Zhikang has been trying to find a solution to at least ensure that we can get through the next year safely, but he has looked through the county annals over the years and has not been able to find a solution."
"What's so difficult about this?"
Ye Xuanyu immediately said, "I have traveled all over Jin'an over the years and have a better understanding of the situations in various places. When I had nothing to do, I happened to compile a book on how to deal with various disasters in various places. I also cultivated some crops suitable for growing in arid areas like Hezhou. You can show it to Master Shen. Maybe it will inspire him to think of a countermeasure."
Hearing this, Song Muxue's eyes lit up: "In that case, I will thank Brother Yu on behalf of Brother Zhikang!"
She just remembered recently that it was this book compiled by Ye Xuanyu in her previous life, which played a crucial role in Shen Zhikang's complete rise in the court and the Sixth Prince's extremely high reputation among the people.
There is also Ye Xuanyu, the seemingly most useless one among the princes, but he completely cuts off Ye Xuanqi's retreat.
After thinking of all this, she hurried to Prince Huai's Mansion to visit Ye Xuanyu, trying her best to keep him firmly under her control.
Ye Xuanyu was just about to ask someone to go to the study to get the book for Song Muxue, but was interrupted by a sudden headache.
"Mu Xue, I... I came to the capital in a hurry this time and didn't bring the book with me. I will send a letter back and ask someone to send it to the capital as fast as possible."
Song Muxue was disappointed that she didn't get the book after making this special trip, but she didn't show it. Instead, she said considerately, "The most important thing is that Brother Yu needs to take care of his health first. Nothing else is more important than you."
Song Muxue's words made him feel a strong sense of guilt.
The book catalog was clearly in the study, but he didn't know how he could have lied to Song Muxue.
After Song Muxue left that day, he was troubled by guilt and decided to send the book to her the next day, but that night he was trapped in a terrible dream.
In the dream, Song Yunxi broke her leg in order to save Shen Zhikang. While she was unconscious due to the broken leg, Shen Zhikang and Song Muxue schemed to destroy all her cultivation and internal strength, and even completely crippled her legs which could have been healed, making her a complete useless person.
Afterwards, he was framed by Song Muxue and caught in bed with Ye Xuanqi and expelled from the Song family. Finally, he was murdered tragically on the farm.
Song Muxue was able to maneuver between the brothers with ease. She used Ye Xuanling to make huge fortune for them and then turned him into a eunuch and threw him into Nanfeng Pavilion, where he was humiliated and died.
They used Ye Xuan Ke to fight for them on the battlefield, but they colluded with the second prince of Bei Chu and caused the destruction of the entire army. After Ye Xuan Ke was pierced through the heart by thousands of swords, his head was cut off by the enemy and made into a wine vessel.
Ye Xuanqi was used and then torn into pieces.
He himself was not much better. He did all kinds of bad things for her. For her sake, he even ignored the common people and tampered with the dike, causing it to burst and leaving corpses all over the ground.
Song Muxue asked Jiang Yan'an to poison the cakes he brought into the palace. He watched helplessly as his mother ate his cakes and died with blood coming out of all her orifices.
And after he was completely exploited, he was turned into a human pig.
"I just gave a little bit of hypocritical charity, but this fool crawled to my feet like a dog and tried to please me. It's ridiculous!"
This was the last sentence Song Muxue said to him.
In the dream, Ye Xuanrong ascended the throne, but he was just a puppet. The one who really held the power was Shen Zhikang. He was promoted from prime minister to regent, and Song Muxue also became the regent princess, who was more glorious than the queen.
But they still refused to give up. They destroyed the Ye family's empire, and every part of Jin'an became a living hell.
The person who finally stood up to protect Jin'an and the Ye family's kingdom was Ye Youran. Such a timid and cowardly woman died so tragically and was insulted by the enemy after her death.
Ye Xuanyu was awakened by this dream. Everything in the dream was exactly the same as what Song Yunxi had thought, including the fact that Ye Xuanrong was the illegitimate child of Concubine Shen and her lover.
"what did I do?"
Ye Xuanyu looked at his hands. There was clearly nothing on them, but he could see that they were covered in blood.
He felt guilty towards his father, his mother, his brothers, his ancestors of the Ye family, and even more so towards his status as a prince and the people of Jin'an.
Ye Xuanyu suddenly became quiet as if his soul was drained out, which made Song Yunxi alert.
He leaned close to Ye Xuanqi's ear and said, "Ye Xuanyu is acting so abnormally. Do you think he is up to something bad?"
Without waiting for Ye Xuanqi to answer, Song Yunxi warned him very seriously: "Anyway, stay away from him. How can a man who can harm his own mother be a good person? Don't let him come to harm you in the name of brotherhood!"
