Chapter 407: Chapter 407: Discussing the Secrets of Heilong Mountain Again

“Alright! You don’t need to handle this matter. I’m going to discuss it with Zhang Peng first, then we’ll move on.”

Di Yelei turned to walk outside. Halfway there, he turned back again.

After a moment of silence, he spoke in a low voice, “In the next few days, you should just rest at home. As for others, just say…say that you were tired from climbing the mountain and slightly affected your pregnancy, so you need to rest for a few days. We will talk about the others once I have the results. Do you understand?”

“Yes, please remember to be very careful when you are investigating…” Liu Sisi carefully instructed.

Although she felt Di Yelei couldn’t find anything, this move at least instinctively gave her a sense of safety: “If you’re in danger, whether you find anything or not, remember to retreat immediately. Promise me!”

“Alright, I promise you. Be a good girl!”

In the midst of their conversation, suddenly he bent down, biting down fiercely on her lips, passionately and wildly kissing her.

His force made Liu Sisi’s chest ache painfully.

He easily pried open her teeth, swiping his tongue around her mouth, leaving a silver sheen. He then let go of her, panting heavily.

His gaze was incredibly deep, and the sight of the enchanting Liu Sisi in front of him seemed to arouse his primal desire.

Taking a deep breath, he resolutely turned around and left the room quickly, quickly mounting a horse and disappearing at the entrance of the courtyard.

The snow on this day was incredibly heavy!

The heavy snow completely blocked everything in sight; when looking up, only the surrounding area could be seen clearly.

At night, Di Yelei didn’t come back.

Liu Sisi lay in bed tossing and turning, thinking about things.

Holding this mink fur long banner, carefully recalling the look in the former Crown Prince’s eyes towards her, Liu Sisi recalled the scenes of their visits to Black Dragon Mountain several times. A vague thought quickly flashed through her mind. This thought passed too quickly for her to grasp, she had no time to consider it clearly.

Where exactly did it go wrong?

Half asleep, she drifted back to sleep again.

Like every time when Di Yelei was not by her side, nightmares found her again.

But this time, the nightmares had changed!

The person wielding a knife in her dream changed into the former Crown Prince. He appeared much younger in the dream, while she was herself. It seemed as if she said something, crying hysterically. However, in the end, he lifted the dagger in his hand, showing a ferocious face, and stabbed it down…

“Ah!….”

Liu Sisi struggled again in her nightmare. Surprisingly, this nightmare didn’t stop at this point.

The scene in her dream changed, as if she had become a bystander. She saw herself being stabbed in the chest, fresh blood was flowing out, and the unstoppable fresh blood flowed rapidly, dyeing the surrounding white snow into a bright red.

The crimson red was even brighter than the red plum, dazzlingly bright, so red that it hurt her eyes, almost blinding her.

“Ah! …cough, cough, cough…”

She sat up abruptly from the head of the bed! Finally, she woke up from the nightmare, her body was already soaked with sweat. It took her quite a while to fully wake up from the dream. She lifted her hand to cover her face, but found it wet.

She couldn’t tell whether this was sweat or tears!

She cleansed herself of the sweat and changed her wet clothes for dry ones before lying down again.

Why did the dream suddenly change like this today? Not only it got longer, but the characters in it had also completely changed!

The only thing that hadn’t changed was the dagger.

The dagger, with one large and three small pearls embedded in its handle!

Could it be that this is not a dream at all, but something that really happened in the past? However, the original body is clearly still alive, and that deep stab into the heart – even if Hua Tuo was alive, he couldn’t possibly save her!

Perhaps, she should look for that dagger. Such a valuable item is definitely not something an ordinary family can afford!

At this thought, she couldn’t sit still any longer. She sat up from the bed, dressed, ground ink, and brushed, drawing the dagger from her dream.

Only then did she lie down again with peace of mind, waiting for the appropriate opportunity. She must find out if this dagger really exists!

The next day and the day after, Liu Sisi did not go out, she was anxiously waiting for news from Di Yelei.

Guihua came over every day, chatting with Liu Sisi. However, Zhang Peng also went out with Di Yelei, the two of them were equally anxious.

Besides these two, Liu Zhi’er’s situation was not any better, the family often sat together in silence.

Luckily, there were some kids playing in the courtyard, which added much joy to the Di family.

On the afternoon of the third day, Di Yelei came back.

Only when he dismounted did Liu Sisi notice that although he looked ragged, his spirit seemed fine.

Without even stopping to take a sip of water, he said: “Zhang Peng and I checked carefully, and we did find some clues. However, these clues were obtained too easily. It’s as if someone deliberately put them there, waiting for us two to discover…”

Di Yelei furrowed his brows, hesitating, not wanting to say it.

“Are you trying to kill me with suspense! What did you find? Go on, say it!” Liu Sisi glared at him, urging him on.

Di Yelei took a sip of water: “Regarding the former Crown Prince, many aspects of it involved imperial court secrets, so naturally, it was hard to investigate. But, we did find quite a few documents. Like I said, it was like someone deliberately let us discover them… back then, when the former Crown Prince was escaping, he took a woman with him, this woman’s surname was Lin, named Xin’er.”

“Lin Xin’er?”

“Yes! Lin Xin’er was intelligent and beautiful, she was favored deeply by the former Crown Prince. It can be said that she had monopolized his favor. What the imperial family has always dreaded the most, is this kind of sole favoritism. The former Crown Prince’s favoritism for her naturally aroused the displeasure of the Crown Princess Consort. Consequently, while the late Emperor was seriously ill, she began to arrange everything, planning to bypass the former Crown Prince and directly make her son the Emperor after the death of the late Emperor. It was for this reason that the former Crown Prince was pushed to the forefront.” freewebnoveℓ.com

“Intrigues and conflicts are common in the imperial family. Disputes within the court factions result in either you die or I die. The former Crown Prince was facing ambitious brothers on the one hand, and on the other, the Crown Princess Consort held him back. After the late Emperor died, the situation got out of hand. After a series of twists and turns, the former Crown Prince finally fled. Yet, even in such a situation, he took this woman named Lin Xin’er with him, and escaped the imperial court, eventually settling on Black Dragon Mountain.”

“The matter did not end there. The current emperor raised the banner of capturing the prince and led his troops in pursuit, chasing all the way to Black Dragon Mountain. No one knows the specifics of their conversation, but from then on, Black Dragon Mountain became a secret of the imperial court and was heavily concealed. And this woman named Lin Xin’er was pregnant at this time.”
