Chapter 189: Waking up from a dream and screaming
Liu Da and Xiao Shunzi looked at each other.
“Who’s going out?
Could it be that the Marquis has recovered from his illness?
Can you go to the morning court now?
That’s not right either!
The morning court session wouldn't be so quiet and silent, right?" Xiao Shunzi scratched the back of his head, looking confused.
The two men closed the two doors, one on the left and one on the right.
Liu Da thought for a moment and said to Xiao Shunzi, "You stay here and listen to the door. I'll go in and see who went out so early.
Just go out. The door is open so wide and you don’t even bother to close it.
If a thief comes in, even he won’t know.” Liu Da said as he walked inside.
Xiao Shunzi nodded in response, sat down on a long bench on the side of the gate, listening to the noise and guarding the door.
Liu Da turned around the screen wall and walked towards the mansion.
Before he had taken a few steps, Liu Da suddenly stopped and looked towards the main hall.
At first, Liu Da thought he had seen it wrong.
He rubbed his eyes and looked over again, and his eyes immediately widened in shock!
If you throw an egg into that big mouth, it probably won’t even touch the upper and lower lips!
what happened?
I saw the door of the main hall was wide open, and the hall was empty...
When Liu Da came to his senses, he rushed into the main hall in two steps. When he took another look, he was dumbfounded...
In the main hall, only the gray brick floor, white walls, and, oh, the roof remained.
Other than that...there's nothing else!
At this time, Liu Da was so frightened that he was shaking all over.
He felt... he felt like he was still in a dream and hadn't woken up yet, and he was having a nightmare!
Liu Da pinched his thigh hard, hiss... it hurts!
Not a dream.
This is... this is...
Liu Da ran to the second hall.
The second hall was also empty. Not only were there no tables or chairs, there wasn't even a useless piece of paper!
This... this... this marquis' mansion... was robbed?
But...but what kind of thief could have taken out all the things here? They haven’t heard any sound yet!
At this moment, Liu Da was standing here, shaking like a ball.
They are guarding the gate.
The gates were wide open, and they knew not;
They didn't even know that so many things were lost in the mansion.
This……
Liu Da raised his hand and touched his neck. This... this neck...
Liu Da’s first thought was to run away by himself!
Run away quickly and far away!
But then I thought again, my indenture contract is a death contract!
If I run away, I will be a fugitive slave, and once I am caught... I will still be dead!
Ugh!
Liu Da held onto the door frame, thinking again and again, and right now he really had no idea what was going on in this mansion!
Liu Da finally decided to go in and report to his master first.
Just relying on the reputation of Marquis Qinxing's Mansion and the family name of the future Princess Yu, there should be no problem in reporting to the police and catching the thief, right?
I don’t know whether the Marquis can wake up today. Now the only one who is awake and capable of taking charge in the Marquis’ Mansion is the Madam!
I can only go and report to my wife first.
Liu Da moved his legs, which felt like they were filled with lead, towards the Qimei Courtyard in the back house.
Before he could move to Qimei Courtyard, he heard several screams coming from Yiantang!
That hoarse scream, heard in this peaceful and quiet morning, seemed particularly terrifying and harsh!
When Liu Da heard the scream, he was about to turn around and run to Yian Hall to see what was going on there.
Before he had taken a few steps, several screams came from the courtyard behind him!
Liu Da stopped and looked towards Yi'antang, then towards Qimeiyuan, and then towards Yi'antang again...
This...this...what is going on?
Which place should he go first?
Liu Da stood there thinking quickly. Since problems had occurred in both places, and the only sober and capable master in the mansion was his wife, he should go and report to his wife first!
Thinking this, Liu Da turned around and ran towards Qimeiyuan again.
At this time in the Qimei Courtyard.
Yin woke up, she was woken by the cold.
Yin had a long dream. She dreamed that she fell into an icy lake.
There was ice on the lake. When I fell into it, I felt freezing cold all over and a feeling of suffocation.
She struggled desperately...struggled...
Just when she felt like she was freezing, she suddenly woke up.
Yin sat up suddenly.
She opened her eyes wide in disbelief!
I am... where am I?
You are clearly sleeping in your own bedroom?
But here...where is this?
Empty ground, empty walls...
Looking at myself again, I was just sitting on the ground, with Qiu Gui and Chun Tao stumbling around beside me.
This is... this is... what is going on?
Yin was so frightened that she was shaking all over.
With trembling hands, she pushed Qiugui and Chuntao beside her to wake up.
Qiu Gui and Chun Tao were woken up by Yin. They opened their eyes suddenly and saw Yin in front of them. They sat up quickly and said, "Madam..."
"lady……"
"Madam, what's going on with us?" Yin said in a trembling voice.
Qiu Gui was puzzled.
She just felt very cold and then she realized that she was holding on to the ground.
No wonder I felt so cold. It turned out...it turned out that my wife, Chuntao and I were all lying on the ground just now.
Qiu Gui opened her eyes wide in shock and looked around...
"Madam, this... this..."
Looking at the empty house in front of them, the master and his servants were all shocked and stood there, not knowing where they were for a moment.
