Lin Daiyu's Rebirth

Chapter 142 Daiyu is gone

"Zijuan, why haven't you gotten in yet?" Xiangyun shouted from inside the carriage.

After hearing the voice, Zijuan did not delay any longer. She gave the thing in her hand to the little monk and wanted to leave.

At this moment, Jiang Yuchen, who had been silent, suddenly raised his head and stared at Zijuan.

He didn't come back to his senses until the accompanying monk pulled him away, but his eyes were still on Zijuan, as if he had something to say.

However, Jiang Yuchen finally just called out softly: "Miss Zijuan..."

His tone was hesitant and reluctant, as if he wanted to say something but didn't know how to start.

He really wanted to ask how Xiangyun was doing, but he couldn't express it because of his current identity and situation.

But his eyes always stayed on Zijuan, and his complicated expression moved people.

However, everything has changed.

The former Xiangyun has become Mr. Yu's concubine, and he has become a monk with hair uncut.

"Zijuan, it's time for us to go!" Xiangyun shouted again in the carriage!

Jiang Yuchen could no longer control his reluctance. He suddenly rushed towards the carriage, but stopped in a daze.

As fate would have it, they met again in such a scene, but everything had changed and they could no longer communicate or confide in each other.

When Zijuan heard Xiangyun's voice, she was slightly shocked, fearing that Xiangyun would get out of the car.

She hurriedly stopped Jiang Yuchen again, fearing that he would run to the carriage to look for Xiangyun.

Zijuan tried hard to hold Jiang Yuchen, but when she looked up, she found that Jiang Yuchen was crying silently.

She had no choice but to gently let go of his hand and went to the other side of the car.

I thought, let them be, at least we can say goodbye properly and clear up the misunderstanding.

Jiang Yuchen stood quietly in front of the carriage, his eyes as if attracted by a magnet, fixed firmly on the carriage body, and did not move away for a long time.

His heart was like a wild horse that had broken free from its reins. He wanted to rush into the car, take a closer look at Xiangyun, the woman he thought about day and night, and ask her if she was okay.

However, he finally restrained himself, slowly turned around, and walked to Zijuan, his eyes full of reluctance and attachment.

Jiang Yuchen took a deep breath and said softly, "Miss Zijuan, take good care of her. We'll meet again later."

After saying that, his gaze fell on the carriage again. He reached out and gently stroked the body of the carriage, as if that was Xiangyun in his heart.

His fingers were gesturing gently in the air, as if he was writing something, or as if he was recalling every moment he spent with Xiangyun.

Finally, he put his hand to his lips, kissed it gently, then turned and left, leaving behind a lonely and desolate back.

Zijuan watched him walk further and further away, and had no choice but to get on the carriage.

Xiangyun was already sleepy. She sat next to Xueyan and dozed off by the window.

Seeing Zijuan, Xueyan waved at her gently.

Xueyan also recognized that it was Jiang Yuchen's voice.

However, due to the fatigue of the journey and pregnancy, Xiangyun has been in a daze.

So she didn't notice Zijuan's conversation with others outside the carriage just now.

She thought he was just a monk begging for alms, but she didn't expect that this person was Jiang Yuchen.

The carriage gradually drove away. Zijuan opened the curtain of the carriage and found that Jiang Yuchen had disappeared without a trace.

"Zijuan, are we almost in Yangzhou?" Xiangyun suddenly opened her eyes and gently touched her belly with her hand.

"Yeah, we're almost there. We'll be home soon! Miss Yun, if you're tired, just close your eyes and have a good rest!"

Zijuan gently comforted Xiangyun, after all, she was pregnant.

Xiangyun drank some water, Zijuan changed her cushion to a comfortable one, and she fell into a deep sleep again.

"Miss, Miss..." Daiyu slowly opened her eyes, only to find the old lady in the courtyard in front of her.

"Grandma, where is this?"

Daiyu then remembered that she had found a secret passage last night. She was so happy that she thought it would lead to the palace, but she didn't expect to see her mother-in-law here.

Daiyu wondered if the secret passage went around in a circle, or was it still in the courtyard?

"Girl, this is a main road!" The old woman said with a smile on her face, her eyes slightly narrowed, looking at Daiyu gently.

"What……"

When Daiyu heard this, she opened her mouth in astonishment, her eyes full of disbelief, and stared at the old woman.

The old woman smiled and nodded, and replied softly, "We've known each other for a while now. Tell me where you want to go!"

Her voice seemed to have a kind of magic that made people believe what she said involuntarily.

"But I want to go back to the palace..." Daiyu lowered her head and said softly.

"Your husband is fighting on the border, why are you going back to that jealous place?" The mother-in-law suddenly looked at Daiyu angrily.

Daiyu had no choice but to tell her: "I also want to see the prince, but women are not allowed on the battlefield!"

"You are so beautiful, girl!"

The old woman looked at Daiyu, shook her head angrily, then turned and left.

After a while, she came back in a carriage.

The old woman came to Daiyu and said righteously, "I know you want to go back to the palace, but you must understand that now is not the time to be willful.

If you want to go back to the palace, just tell the coachman and he will be there in a few hours!

But if you still think about that man, then go with him!

I just hope you won’t regret your decision today!"

After saying these words, the old woman left without looking back.

Daiyu was left standing there alone, feeling very conflicted.

The old woman suddenly turned around at the front of the road and glanced at Daiyu.

He ran back and continued, “If you want to go to the border to find the prince, he can also take you there safely.

But the journey is long, so you have to think carefully!"

Lin Daiyu looked at the old woman's departing back, feeling confused.

She didn't know how to choose, on one side was the palace, and on the other side was the prince.

Finally, she decided to go find the prince, so she got on a carriage and set off for the border.

"Your Highness, Yu'er is here..."

Daiyu cried out softly in her heart. She was very worried about Xiaowan and Xiaoling.

However, her position in the palace seemed to be particularly awkward since the prince left, and she didn't know how to face it all if she went back now.

"Xiaoling, Xiaowan, I'm sorry for putting you through this..."

Daiyu suddenly felt guilty, but she was helpless.

She could only go to the prince and stay there for a while.

"Girl, don't come back! Please don't come back!"

Xiaoling curled up in a dark and damp corner, her heart filled with fear and worry.

Ever since Daiyu disappeared, she has been imprisoned here by the First Lady. No one knows how many days have passed, nor does anyone know what has happened outside.

Her body was covered with wounds, and every wound caused her unbearable pain, but she didn't dare to scream out and could only grit her teeth and endure it.

Her face was covered with bruises and bloodstains, and her originally beautiful face became haggard.

Despite suffering such torture, Xiaoling still silently prayed that Daiyu would be safe.

She knew that she was just a maid and could not change the current situation, but she hoped that the girl could stay away from danger and not be hurt.

She closed her eyes and recalled every moment she spent with the girl.

It was because she met Daiyu that she was no longer sold from one family to another, nor was she beaten and scolded every day. Although she was a maid, she lived a stable life.

And now, she knew clearly that Daiyu was framed but she was powerless to do anything, and the girl disappeared inexplicably.

Xiaoling couldn't help but shed tears, she felt extremely remorseful and guilty.

"Girl, are you doing well? I'm so worried about you!"
