Chapter 132: The Crown Prince (3)
Ye Sui looked at Chen Shu, she felt complicated. With a low voice she said: “I dreamed that I became the Prince Consort, that day was my wedding day with the Crown Prince…”
Chen Shu was startled but continued to listen carefully. Ye Sui gently and peacefully told him about the Xia Zhou Dynasty.
The Crown Prince’s big wedding, this wedding that had attracted worldwide attention.
In the crisis of war, the Crown Prince put on a suit of armour and entered the battlefield, so far away from the East Palace.
The Prince Consort sat alone in the deep East Palace, wearing a wedding gown and staying up all night.
……
Time flew by in an instant and now they were in reality.
Chen Shu understood how Ye Sui was feeling, Ye Sui had such dreams three times in total. The first dream could be considered as a coincidence, but what about the second and the third time?
For the third time, Ye Sui also dreamed that she became the Prince Consort. Rather than a dream it was more like she was seeing her previous life.
Chen Shu looked deeply at Ye Sui, suddenly he asked “What do you think these dreams mean?”
Ye Sui was silent for a few seconds, and then said: “I’m not sure, I just feel a little sad and feel a little uncomfortable.”
Since that time, she never had that dream. She wanted to know what would happen next, but she was afraid to know.
Chen Shu held Ye Sui’s hands and the two interlocked their fingers. This was enough to calm Ye Sui down.
Chen Shu looked at Ye Sui, and asked her: “Do you think I was the Crown Prince of Xia Zhou Dynasty?”
Ye Sui nooded, and then shook her head: “I hope you are, but I don’t hope you are.”
If it turned out that Chen Shu was the Crown Prince, it means that the two of them did have fate in their previous life, and they were more deeply connected than they thought.
However, it was said in history that when the Crown Prince was very young, he died in battle and the East Palace was also burned down. It was obvious that the fate of the two did not end very well.
Both of them obviously thought about this. They hadn’t spoken for a long time and the atmosphere was a bit dull.
Chen Shu: “Do you think that the Imperial Concubine waited for the Crown Prince?”
Ye Sui: “Of course I hope that she waited for him.” But….
The fire that wiped out everything, destroyed the East Palace, and probably burned the Prince Consort to death. Ye Sui did not dare to think about the final outcome of the Prince Consort.
The Prince Consort and the Crown Prince were obviously newlyweds. On the wedding night, the Crown Prince was forced to put on his armor and rushed to the battlefield. While the other was wearing a wedding gown, waited until the candle burned out, but she never closed her eyes.
Will the ending be the same once again, will the two be separated once again?
Chen Shu thought about this. He knew that even if this was really something that happened to the two of them in their previous lives, why would Ye Sui suddenly start dreaming so frequently recently after such a long time?
Unless… there was something that was waiting for them to be solved.
Such as the Xia Zhou Palace Museum.
Chen Shu told Ye Sui about his thoughts, Ye Sui also felt strange, and she thought about it for a moment: “You mean, we are going to the Xia Zhou Palace Museum?”
Chen Shu nodded: “As long as we go there, we will know what exactly happened.”
Ye Sui thought to herself, the ghost who bowed down, the loyal general, the sword that never rusted and the regretful wedding.
Somehow, these things always carried grief and pain. Ye Sui could feel the gunpowder smoke filling in the air. Also, the feeling of helplessness of heartbreak and sadness.
Her dreams were just one scene after another, as if it was the incarnation of her and Chen Shu from the previous lives. This may be a sign for them to explore the past that had been covered with dust for a long time.
If one wanted to solve a puzzle, they would have to go to where the puzzle started. Which was going to the Xia Zhou Palace Museum to find the truth and unravel the fog of their previous lives.
It was late at night, but Ye Sui and Chen Shu didn’t wait any longer, they stood up together in mutual understanding and walked out together. Then the two got into the car and drove into the dark night.
The night was very dark, there were almost no people on the road, and it was extremely quiet. Chen Shu drove the car and Ye Sui sat beside him. Along the way, the two did not say a word.
After a while, they arrived at Xia Zhou Dynasty Museum. Ye Sui and Chen Shu got out from the car and walked towards the door and the two were stunned.
The door was closed tightly and the door was locked with a dark black firm lock, firmly locking the mysterious Xia Zhou Palace inside.
Wouldn’t let anyone get a glimpse of even a tiny bit.
Apart from the door, outside the door was a cold night, and inside the door was the deep Xia Zhou Palace. If they wanted to know more about their past lives, they had to go in.
But how do they get in?
At this moment, there was a “click” sound heard in the air, and the door lock opened. The sound was particularly clear in the silent spring night.
The black lock fell on the ground with a dull sound, and then “creak” the door suddenly opened. When the door slowly opened, it gradually revealed the whole picture inside.
Chen Shu and Ye Sui looked at each other and both of them were surprised. It looked like someone was helping them.
Perhaps, the ghost was helping them.
Ye Sui didn’t see the ghost, she faced the air and said softly; “Thank you.” Her voice was scattered in the night breeze and soon faded.
After Ye Sui and Chen Shu entered, there was a dark shadow on the big tree behind them who bowed to them.
Chen Shu and Ye Sui walked in and ready to go to the East Palace.
They didn’t notice the dark shadows faintly appeared in the night behind them. There were ghosts holding chinese zither, palace ladies ghosts under the swings, eunuch ghosts in the corner of the palace…
They were all ghosts who stayed here after the Xia Zhou Dynasty fell. The ghosts looked at the shadow of Chen Shu and Ye Sui, they recognized their identities, and their expressions were horrified.
Ye Sui passed by the corridor, where there was a thin ghost. As they passed by, the ghost in the corridor knelt down quietly and bowed,
Ye Sui was thinking about something inside her heart, but she didn’t see them, so she kept walking forward with great concentration.
Ye Sui and Chen Shu walked along, seeing them, the ghosts sank their shoulders, their bodies slowly fell to the ground, their heads hanging as they bowed to Ye Sui and Chen Shu.
As they moved forward, it was all such a scene, and the attitude was extremely respectful.
Even if Chen Shu and Ye Sui didn’t see them, even if the two of them had already walked far away, the ghosts still maintained this posture, and they hadn’t gotten up for a long time.
Because the ghosts knew that the Crown Prince and his wife were still here, it was the ghosts’ own way to welcome these two unrivalled identities who had returned to the Xia Zhou Palace.
Chen Shu and Ye Sui were ignorant of these things. They stepped on the cold and hard ground and walked forward step by step, with complex thoughts in their hearts.
The more they walked into the mysterious and distant palace, the more their heart felt heavy. The moment when they walked into the East Palace, the two felt even more pain in their heads.
At this moment, the two had arrived at the East Palace. Ye Sui looked over and was stunned.
There was a sword lying in the center of the floor quietly and motionless. As if it was asleep in the dark night.
Ye Sui was startled, wasn’t this the general sword? Wasn’t it in the museum? How did it get in here?
This sword once followed the General Gu to fight on the battlefield and it had long been soaked in the blood of countless people. From nearby, she could already detect the iron-blooded breath and the bitter killing intent.
Murderous aura, ominous look and the moment Chen Shu and Ye Sui walked in, it all stopped in an instant. At this time, the sword was very respectful, as if it bowed its head for both of them.
The sword seemed to notice the arrival of someone, and the body of the sword suddenly trembled slightly, “buzzing”.
At this moment, the sword suddenly unsheathed and flew into the air. Then, it went down vertically and stabbed itself in the ground.
At the same time, a black shadow appeared on the sword, his back was straight, his expression was sharp and his eyes looked at Chen Shu with full of excitement.
General Gu knelt on the ground while holding the sword. He looked at Chen Shu with tears in his eyes. He opened his mouth and spit out silent words.
Ye Sui was stupefied, did she misread his lips? The general ghost said two words.
Crown Prince.
The general ghost actually called Chen Shu the Crown Prince!
Ye Sui didn’t have the time to think deeply. At this moment, a dark shadow appeared beside the general ghost, it was the minister ghost. The minister ghost saw Chen Shu and his eyes were shocked.
Suddenly, the ghost minister bowed his head, his body fell to the ground. His voice was raised high, sorrowful and excited, clearly filled in the empty East Palace.
“The minister welcomes the Crown Prince!”
