Both worlds are like dreams

Chapter 238 New Cage

But after so many days, there is still no news. I don't know how he is recovering.

Xue Huang took a sip of the wine in the jar, but spat it out the next moment, "Pfft, pfft, pfft..."

Mo Yunchen was also startled by her. He was a little surprised to see her wrinkled face. "What's wrong with you?"

Xue Huang frowned and sniffed the wine jar again, "It's so bitter!"

Mo Yunchen took the wine jar from her and tasted the peach blossom wine. He didn't spit it out like Xue Huang did, but he froze there, his face turning green. After a long while, he finally spoke, "What did you ask Duan Yun to add to it?"

"Lemon!" Xue Huang quickly drank a few sips of Rouge Drunk to dilute the bitter taste of the wine. "Will your subordinate take this opportunity to retaliate against me? How much lemon juice did you put in this?"

"He doesn't have the courage."

Xue Huang opened the other jars of peach blossom wine and smelled them. Without exception, they all had a bitter taste. "It seems that the lemons are not ripe. It's a pity to waste these jars of wine." Xue Huang put away the remaining jars of Rouge Wine, as if she was afraid that Mo Yunchen would snatch them from her. She treasured them very much.

Mo Yunchen found it funny, and the corners of his mouth slightly raised, but then dropped again as if he had thought of something. "Back to the question just now, do you think Taiji Hall will have the answer I want?"

"I really don't know," Xue Huang raised an eyebrow, "How about you take me to see it?"

"Want to take this opportunity to escape?"

"How can I escape if you are guarding me so closely?" Xue Huang smiled faintly, "Could it be that you don't have confidence in yourself?"

"This kind of provocation has no effect on me."

"So what works for you?"

Mo Yunchen looked into her clear eyes and said nothing.

Xue Huang did not continue to ask, and continued to drink. After drinking several bottles in a row, she felt sleepy. But she kept drinking, as if she wanted to get herself drunk.

From here you can clearly see the lights of Shangyang City, but the warmth seems very far away.

Someone was setting off fireworks on the shore again. Under the bright starry sky, the fireworks were gorgeous and dazzling. Xue Huang thought of the fireworks that Gu Qinglan had set off for her that day. A faint smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, and her originally indifferent eyes were also tinged with color.

Mo Yunchen looked at the light in her eyes and unconsciously looked at the fireworks, probably knowing what she was thinking. He drank the wine in the jar, and the smile on his lips was filled with a hint of cold sarcasm.

Xue Huang sat there watching the fireworks for a long time. She didn't notice when Mo Yunchen left.

She took a jar of peach blossom wine and tasted it again. It was very bitter! It was because the lemons were not ripe enough and too much lemon juice was added, which made it sour and bitter.

But she didn't vomit, she forced herself to drink it.

She looked at the night sky, and her memory came to Guigu.

There are seasonal flowers, plants and trees growing in Guigu all year round, and the most blooming ones in spring are naturally peach blossoms.

At this time, Mr. Guigu would personally lead them to pick peach blossoms to make wine. Every year, they would brew hundreds of jars of wine and drink it until the fruits were ripe.

At that time they would use various fruits to make wine, and then drink it when osmanthus flowers were in full bloom. In winter, they would naturally make wine with snow water and plum blossoms.

In short, Guigu has all kinds of wine all year round.

Those novel wine recipes were taught to Xuehuang by the young man. He taught her to add lemon juice to peach blossom wine, and also taught her to make wine with roses and lychees.

But at that time, she preferred to roam the jungle with Su Linjin, and lychees were not easy to buy, so the most brewed thing she made was peach blossom wine with lemon juice.

But she didn't like it very much, because it was not sweet after adding lemon juice, but Wei Yunzhou liked it very much.

But one time, she lost a bet with Su Linjin and was tricked by him into playing a trick on Wei Yunzhou, so Xue Huang added the juice of two unripe lemons into the peach blossom wine.

Wei Yunzhou's face was full of excitement after drinking the jar of wine, but he said nothing at that time.

But later during a meal, she and Su Linjin were "fortunate" enough to taste the wine.

At that time, the two of them suffered for a whole day and lost their sense of taste, and this was naturally the work of Wei Yunzhou. A gentleman's revenge is never too late.

Her second uncle is even more cruel than the two of them.

So when Xue Huang tasted this familiar flavor today, she was very sure that Wei Yunzhou did it on purpose.

This means that her message has reached Shanhemen and Wei Yunzhou has responded.

Then the next step is to wait patiently.

But she waited for three days in peace and tranquility, and no one from Shanhe Gate showed up.

Instead, Mo Yunchen wanted to imprison her in another place.

Xue Huang was a little confused. Could it be that he had seen through her little trick, or was it that the people from Shanhe Gate were approaching here, so he had to change places?

"Let's go." Mo Yunchen said.

Xue Huang sat in the chair without moving, "Where are you taking me?"

“It’s a place you’ll like.”

"I definitely won't like being anywhere with you."

"Then you have to learn to adapt." Mo Yunchen looked at her with a smile, "Because you will spend the rest of your life by my side."

"I want to know why you suddenly took me away from here?"

"you do not need to know."

Xue Huang still didn't move, "Will the new cage still have the same treatment as here?"

Mo Yunchen laughed, "Of course, I won't treat you unfairly."

"That's fine." Xue Huang stood up and walked out, "It's all the same anyway."

Xue Huang followed him out of the villa gate, looking at the Bi Bo Lake in front of her, she felt that the scenery had never been so open as it was now. She took a greedy breath, feeling that the air outside the villa was bright and free.

But before she could take a few more glances, she was dragged onto the boat by Mo Yunchen. He pressed her into the cabin and took her away.

Judging from the direction, it doesn't look like it's leaving the lakeshore, but rather is heading towards a relatively remote courtyard at the foot of the mountain.

Xue Huang looked outside from the window and saw only mountain villas passing by in front of her.

Birds kept flying over the lake. Xue Huang wanted to take a closer look, but as soon as she moved, Mo Yunchen grabbed her arm tightly.

Xue Huang frowned slightly, and said as she shook her head, "What are you doing? Let me go!"

Mo Yunchen held her tightly, his deep eyes turned cold, "Three years ago, you would rather jump down than go with me in order to escape."

"You really reminded me," Xue Huang sneered, "I'll have to think about where to jump to get away from you someday."

"Absolutely impossible."

"You can't lock me up forever." Xue Huang raised her eyebrows. "If you use me to hurt the people I care about, I will never do what you want, even if I die. But as long as I'm alive, I will definitely escape. Unless..."

"Unless what?"

"You can switch sides." Xue Huang looked at him with a half-smile. "As for you, support the fifth prince to become the crown prince, so that Emperor Ling will no longer pursue the crimes of the remaining Beiyuan party, and overthrow Shen Congfeng. I can consider helping you convince them."

Mo Yunchen smiled coldly, "It sounds fair. But the priorities are reversed."

Xue Huang rolled her eyes and thought: You are quite good at calculating! Just dream on!

Just based on the hatred between him and Beiyuan, this is an impossible thing. And we can't expect him to overthrow Shen Congfeng. Even if he has this plan, after Shen Congfeng falls, he will definitely become the next Shen Congfeng. After all, he has always had his own ambitions.

"Let go!" Xue Huang glanced at the hand on her arm. "If I really want to die, I have plenty of ways to do it, not just jumping into the river."

Mo Yunchen's face was grim, and he tightened his grip on her hand, "Your life is mine. If you don't recognize this, then from now on, I will make you live a life worse than death."

Xue Huang was not afraid of him at all. She looked calm and said in a cold tone, "It's no use trying to scare me. After all, I've seen your cruelty before."

After all, is there anything more tragic than being used by someone you trusted and then killed by your own hands?

In fact, Xue Huang could empathize with the unwillingness and hatred she felt when she said those words after Ju Men. "We will never meet again in this life and eternity." How much hatred must she have to say such heartless words?

But now, she has become the bird in his cage again. Will she repeat the same mistakes? Or will she become part of the layers of bones in his secret room?

Mo Yunchen looked at her eyes, and he felt that she was looking at an old friend. Her eyes seemed to suppress her dissatisfaction and resentment towards him, but he couldn't understand why she was so cold.

This is also what makes Xue Huang feel sad. He was the one who killed her, but why did he think of her? Why did he forget everything, but it turned into a nightmare and haunted her?

"Why are you looking at me like that?"

Xue Huang looked away and smiled faintly, "Nothing, I'm not looking at you."

Mo Yunchen slowly let go of her and remained silent.

The boat soon reached the shore. Xue Huang followed behind him and silently came to the door of a small courtyard.

The layout of this house was actually not much different from where she lived, except that there was a tall osmanthus tree with a swing hanging on it. Under the osmanthus tree, there was a hot spring that was steaming.

This courtyard is also surrounded by water, but it is close to the foot of the mountain. If you can get through the water, you can get ashore and escape all the way to the mountain.

Mo Yunchen seemed to know what she was thinking, and said coldly, "There are dozens of secret guards around this yard. If you make any move to escape, they will show up, and you won't be able to get away."

Xue Huang ignored his words and walked into the yard consciously. The yard was not very big, and was similar to where she lived before, only a little more refined.

But in her eyes, they were just prisons.

Mo Yun looked at her silently and left, closing the courtyard door tightly behind him. But Xue Huang just didn't believe in evil, and she had to make trouble for those secret guards.

She opened the gate and just took a step out when she saw two people jumping out from the tree.
