Within a hazy image, countless black figures entered the palace. The faces of these black figures were so malevolent that each of them had a demonic face with fierce teeth, causing Yue Chan to tremble.
Sweat soaked her clothes as she fidgeted uneasily. Beneath the ghost mask, there was a pair of cold and merciless eyes, just like the ones she had seen in the imperial palace of the Great Concord, those who had caused the death of her mother's wife.
"Child, son …"
Yue Chanjuan called out softly, sweating profusely.
Amidst the rising flames, a clear infant's cry sounded out. A pair of chubby little hands tried to grab onto something, but they were unable to do so.
"Son, my son …"
The flames grew bigger and bigger, and those cold Ghost-Masked People added fuel to the fire, smiling at her sinisterly and maliciously.
"No, don't …"
Surrounding the cradle, flames were rising. The baby was struggling, its small face was roasted by the flames, revealing a deep red. Its desperate black eyes looked over at her, and it stretched out its hand.
"No, don't …"
Yue Chan suddenly sat up, her clothes drenched in cold sweat. It had been a long time since she had a nightmare, and she had never felt such a sense of danger.
Tonight, however, she felt a sense of unease in her heart, and the sense of alarm and unease that she hadn't felt in a long time lingered in her heart.
"He'll be fine. With Tuoba Fei here, he'll definitely be fine."
Silence reigned in the chamber. Under the dim light of the lamp, the painting was lying on the table, seemingly asleep.
Yue Chanjuan felt uneasy in her heart. She slowly supported herself on the ground and put on the fox fur coat. Without disturbing the painting, she walked towards the baby's room.
The nightmare and unease in her heart just now made her want to take a look at her child.
Not wanting to alarm anyone, she supported herself against the wall with trembling hands and walked slowly into the back hall. The baby's room was set up in one of the rooms in the back hall.
Gentle rays of light shone from the room, causing Yue Chanjuan's heart to loosen slightly. There should be someone watching over the baby's room day and night, so how could there be any accidents. She was just too anxious and anxious.
"It's better if I go in and take a look. I'm relieved to see that my son is sleeping peacefully."
Pushing the door open, Yue Chanjuan staggered and fell heavily onto the ground at the door.
The cradle was completely empty. The Wu Lanzhu sisters were lying on the floor, and the room had a faint, sleeping scent.
As the door opened, air flowed in, and the smell entered Yue Chanjuan's nostrils, causing her to lose all her originally delicate strength and hope.
"Child, my child …"
He bit his tongue to keep himself awake. "Someone, someone …"
However, her consciousness became more and more hazy, and the fragrance was lingering at the tip of her nose. When she thought about it, she felt weak all over, and her head tilted to the side, fainting at the door.
"Child, my son …"
Yue Chanjuan stretched out her hand, trying to grab onto something tightly. A warm hand appeared in her hand, giving her some comfort.
"Big Dipper, Big Dipper …"
"My son!"
Yue Chanjuan abruptly sat up, then fell onto the couch.
"Big Qin, calm down."
The jade book grabbed Yue Chanjuan's hand and used a silk handkerchief to wipe the sweat off Yue Chanjuan's forehead.
"Child, where is the child? What happened? "
"Big Qin, it's nothing. You just had a nightmare, so you need to rest and get some sleep."
"Dream?" Was it a dream? "
Yue Chanjuan leaned powerlessly against the headboard, her eyes roaming the surroundings. The scene just now was too real. Was it really a dream?
Her body was still hurting slightly. She stretched out her hand to touch it and remembered that she had gone to the nursery to look for the child. When she saw that the child had disappeared from the nursery, the Wu Lan sisters fell to the ground.
"No, it's not a dream!"
Yue Chanjuan lifted her eyes and stared at Jade Book. "How dare you lie to me?"
"I wouldn't dare, this servant wouldn't dare."
Yu Shu frantically knelt in front of the bed, deeply lowering her head.
"Nothing happened?"
The jade book lowered its head and did not answer. Yue Chanjuan raised her eyes, and the window frame became bright. The crystal lamp in the room had already been extinguished, and the sun had already risen.
"Why didn't you answer me?"
Yue Chanjuan angrily hit the bed heavily with her hands. Yu Shu reached out and placed her hands on the bed, Yue Chanjuan's fists smashed into Yu Shu's hands.
"Please calm your anger, Big Dipper. Your servant deserves to die."
"It is your servant's fault. Your servant deserves to die. Please grant me punishment."
His eyes were red and swollen, and he kneeled down in front of the couch and kowtowed heavily.
Yue Chan took a deep breath and said angrily, "Speak, what happened? Where is the Prince? "
"Reporting to the Great Qin, last night, an assassin entered the royal courtyard. The prince sent people to capture the assassin."
"The child was taken?"
Jade book and the two people who knew the painting looked at each other. They did not know what had happened. Last night, it was the Wu Lan sisters who took care of the child.
"This servant doesn't know. Last night, the Wu Lan sisters were watching over the little prince, and they still haven't woken up."
Yue Chanjuan's scent was relatively light, but she had just finished producing it and could not use it as she pleased. The people that Tuoba Fei left behind also ordered for Big Bai to rest and sleep, so they did not give her any medicine.
The Wu Lanzhu sisters had used some medicine, and because the incense was too tyrannical, the Wu Lanzhu sisters had always been in the room, inhaling too much of it. Thus, when they went to take a look earlier, they had yet to wake up.
"Let's go and see if those two have woken up. Is there any news of our child?"
"Not yet …"
The voices of the two were very low. They did not know what had happened last night and did not dare to speak carelessly. Their eyes were red and their heads were lowered. They did not dare to say anything.
They all knew that the disappearance of the little prince was inextricably linked to the assassin the day before. However, after being alarmed by the white dog, when they went to check, they found that Yue Chan Juan had fainted at the entrance of the baby's room.
"Go ask around."
"Yes, your servant will go right away. Do not worry about Big Qin. With Prince here, I presume nothing will happen."
Yue Chanjuan was extremely worried, but she was completely powerless, her mind was muddled, and she could not move. She could only order her jade book to inquire about the news.
The more concerned she was, the more confused she became. Yue Chanjuan had never thought that after she had fainted, Yu Shu should have already inquired about the news.
"Knowledge Painting, who was the assassin last night? What is your intention in kidnapping the little prince? "
"This, this servant does not know, nor do I dare to casually guess."
Yue Chanjuan became even more agitated upon hearing these words. She became even more upset as she said, "If you have something to say, just say it. Don't stutter. Even if you say something wrong, I won't blame you." Now that my heart is in disarray, you can say whatever you want. "
"Yes, this servant will guess, or perhaps it's only by entering the royal court at night that I don't know."
"Solu Lianshan?"
Yue Chan couldn't help but ponder. It wasn't impossible for that pig-head to be alone, but he should be in the northern border right now.
"Could it be …"
Yue Chanjuan could not help but have her face change drastically when this thought appeared in her mind. If the child was really taken away by Solu Lian Mountain, then the child would be in great danger.
