The princess returns strongly, and the divorced regent is busy chasing his wife

"How could you fail, useless bastard, and let that bastard escape?"

At Tingfengxuan, Li Xueluo heard her maid report that the assassins sent to kill Ouyang Ling had failed.

She was so angry that she took it out on the maids and old women in the room.

"What a bunch of rubbish! If it doesn't work this time, I'm afraid that bastard is prepared, so it won't be easy to take action next time."

"Have those people been dealt with?"

"Don't worry, master. It has been dealt with," said Nanny Sun, the leading Nanny in charge of contacting the assassins.

"That's good, you guys go out now."

Li Xueluo sat down on the chair in frustration, holding her head with her hands and rubbing her temples. She was so angry that she had a headache.

"Madam, would you like to ask the court physician to come and see you?" Nanny Sun asked tentatively.

"No, I want to rest, wait for me to rest."

"Okay," he told the maid who was supposed to help with the washing and dressing.

Li Xueluo washed up and lay down on the bed.

I was tired after a day and fell asleep in a short while.

It was a dark and windy night. A dark shadow avoided the guards in the mansion and sneaked into Li Xueluo's bedroom in Tingfengxuan.

The man in black saw that Li Xueluo was already fast asleep.

He walked to the bed and pressed Li Xueluo's acupoints.

He casually took out a bottle from his body and poured all the medicine in the bottle into Li Xueluo's mouth.

Then he watched Li swallow it before quietly untying the acupoints of the woman on the bed.

The corners of his lips raised in satisfaction before leaving the room.

The next day, in the Duke's Mansion, a scream was heard from the mistress' room.

"Don't come over here, don't come over here. I don't want to kill you. You are the one who blocked my way. You deserve to die, bitch."

Dingxiang, the maid who was guarding the door at night, heard the lady's scream in the room, and hurriedly pushed the door open to check on her master.

"Madam, madam, what's wrong with you?"

"Lilac, Lilac, there's a ghost, that bitch is here to take my life,"

"Madam, Madam, don't be afraid, you are having a nightmare."

"No, Ding Xiang is real, she is right next to you, look quickly"

The woman on the bed hid in the corner of the bed like a madman, holding the quilt in her hands, looking in the direction of Dingxiang in horror.

It was as if there was really someone standing next to Dingxiang.

Dingxiang saw the lady's appearance and felt that something was wrong.

He ran out quickly and called the nanny in charge of the yard.

"Madam, it seems like she is possessed by evil spirits. Please go and have a look."

Nanny Sun was dragged by Dingxiang and trotted all the way to the lady's bedroom.

"Madam, Madam, I am Madam Sun, please look at me."

Nanny Sun stepped forward and hugged the frightened Li Xueluo.

"Save me, save me, that woman is here, she's here to take my life."

"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid. How can there be a ghost in broad daylight? You must be dreaming."

Nanny Sun comforted the woman who was screaming like crazy on the bed with warmth, just like she was comforting a child.

"Mammy, I think we should ask the court doctor to come and take a look. There's something wrong with the madam's condition," reminded Dingxiang beside her.

Nanny Sun looked at the woman in her arms on the bed.

He lowered his head and thought for a while, then said, "Go and invite the second young lady over and let her decide."

"Yes, Dingxiang ran all the way to invite Ouyang Miaoyin."

After a while, Ouyang Miaoyin trotted all the way and hurriedly came to Tingfengxuan.

"Mother...Mother, what's wrong with you?"

Ouyang Miaoyin, who had just entered the room, saw her mother with disheveled hair huddled in a corner beside the bed, her eyes filled with fear and confusion, and she was shouting and talking nonsense.

I instantly felt that something was wrong. My mother didn't seem to be frightened by a nightmare, but rather like a mentally ill person.

Ouyang Miaoyin did not dare to delay and ordered the maid beside her: "Go and get the palace doctor quickly."

"Lilac, go and guard the door. If dad comes back from court, bring him here quickly."

The maid who received the order hurried to carry out the lady's instructions.

"Mother...look at me, I am Yin'er, what's wrong with you?"

"Weren't you fine yesterday?"

"How come I became like this after waking up from a nap?"

Ouyang Miaoyin looked at her mother on the bed with a look of heartache and asked in disbelief.

After a while, the palace doctor came running in in a panic, carrying his small medicine box.

"Doctor, can you please take a look at what's wrong with my wife?"

The court doctor reached out hurriedly and held Li Xueluo's wrist.

After half a cup of tea, the doctor let go of his pulse-taking hand.

He said solemnly, "Madam is not poisoned, her pulse is stable, I really can't tell what disease she has."

"It should be a nightmare. I'll prescribe some tranquilizers for you so you can have a good sleep and see how you feel when you wake up."

"Thank you, doctor,"

Ouyang Miaoling signaled with her eyes to the maid beside her to follow the court doctor to get the medicine.

"Mother, what happened to you?"

"I hope you're okay"

Ouyang Miaoyin clasped her hands together and prayed to God to bless her mother to get better soon.

Duke Lu, who had just returned from court, had just stepped into the mansion when Ding Xiang, who was waiting at the door, came forward to report.

The lady is ill, and please go and visit her, Your Majesty.

Duke Lu didn't even have time to change his clothes before he followed his maid to Tingfengxuan to see Li Xueluo.

"Yin'er, what happened to your mother?"

Ouyang Ze, who had just stepped into the bedroom door of Tingfengxuan, asked hurriedly.

"Daddy, please look at Mommy, no one recognizes me anymore"

"There is a ghost, there is a ghost, you bitch, you deserve to die, please let me go, don't kill me,"

Li Xueluo buried her head in the quilt, still shouting for mercy.

Duke Lu looked at his daughter in front of him with a puzzled look.

"Yin'er, what happened to your mother? Have you asked a doctor to come and take a look?"

"Dad, the doctor came here and couldn't find out what's wrong with Mom. Please save Mom."

Ouyang Miaoyin took out a handkerchief and wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes while crying.

"Yin'er, don't worry and don't cry. Daddy will go and ask the emperor and the imperial physician to come and treat your mother."

"Take good care of your mother first, Daddy will be back soon"

"Okay, Daddy, go ahead and don't worry."

Duke Lu anxiously left the courtyard of Tingfengxuan and went to the palace to ask for the imperial physician.

The news that the lady had gone mad due to a nightmare quickly spread to every corner of the Duke's Mansion, and people in the mansion were talking about it.

In the Shihua Pavilion, Sifan was talking excitedly about the news he had heard.

"Master, I heard from people in the mansion that Madam Li has gone crazy. They said she was scared crazy by a nightmare."

"I kept saying, 'Bitch, don't come over here. I didn't mean to kill you. Don't come over here. Don't kill me.'"

"Master, do you think she has done many evil things and the little ghost is here to seek revenge on her?"

"Sifan, tell me, who did she kill?" Ouyang Miaoling asked, hearing something wrong in Sifan's words.

"I'm not sure. I just heard from people in the mansion that Madam was afraid that someone would come to take his life."

Ouyang Miaoling had a bad feeling in her heart, wondering if what the woman said was related to her mother.

Her mother was the legitimate daughter of the general's mansion. She married the current duke and became the legitimate wife of the duke's mansion.

Because the General's Mansion was falsely accused of collaborating with the enemy, the General was beheaded and everyone else in the mansion was exiled.

Her mother also disappeared at the same time, after which the Duke of Lu married Li Xueluo, the illegitimate daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion, as his second wife.

Could it be that my mother’s disappearance is related to my second wife Li Xueluo?
