As the wedding approached, her fiancé, Lu Yun, preferred to shave his head and become a monk rather than marry Qi Yuning.
Princess Qi instantly became the laughingstock of Shengjing.
T...
Ning Wen listened to Lu Yun's words and said, "Ningning, what's going on?"
Qi Yuning said helplessly: "He just said bad words in the mourning hall, and was taught a lesson by my eldest brother and Lu Ze. When he woke up, he suffered from amnesia and could not remember his past. He only remembered that he saved Shen Nian from the water last night, and he insisted that Shen Nian was his wife..."
Ning Wen said: "I have heard people talk about amnesia, and I also met a person with amnesia who later became insane. He was so young, what a pity. Yu An and Lu Shizi were too harsh."
Qi Yuning looked at Lu Yun, who was holding the child and smiling happily, and said, "He deserves it."
Ning Wen said: "Even if he is talking nonsense, you shouldn't hit him on the head. I remember that he often sneaked into the palace to play. What should we do if this good child becomes crazy?"
"Ahem, ahem, ahem!"
Shen Nian on the bed coughed, and Lu Yunlian stepped forward and said, "Madam, are you awake? Our son looks exactly like me!"
When Shen Nian saw the child in Lu Yun's hand, she took Han'er and held her tightly in her arms, then took two steps back and looked at Lu Yun warily, "This is not your son, this is my son with my husband."
Lu Yun said, "I remember holding him in my arms. He is my son. Look at his little nose and eyes. He looks so much like me."
Qi Yuning came forward and took a look. "There is nothing similar. Lu Yun, this is a woman's room. Get out now."
Lu Yun didn't leave and said, "This is my wife's room, why should I go out?"
Qi Yuning stepped forward and grabbed the collar of Lu Yun's robe, "Follow me!"
Lu Yun held Shen Nian’s sleeve tightly, “I won’t leave, you can’t separate me from my wife.”
Seeing Lu Yun tightly grasping her sleeves, Shen Nian said helplessly: "Prince Lu, have you had enough of making trouble? I am not your wife. If you want to go crazy, please go somewhere else."
Lu Yun said with tears in his eyes: "My wife, did I do something wrong that you won't forgive me? If you are not my wife, why do you have a pair of jade pendants around your neck?"
Lu Yun took out a hollow jade token from his neck. He took it off, reached out to hold the round jade token exposed outside of Shen Nian, and put them together perfectly.
Lu Yun said, "This is a pair of phoenix jade pendants. The outer one is the phoenix, and the round jade pendant inside is the phoenix. This is a family heirloom left by my grandfather to my parents. My parents also left it to me, asking me to give the phoenix jade pendant inside to my wife. I have the phoenix jade pendant, and you have the phoenix jade pendant, so you are my wife."
Qi Yuning was quite curious when she saw Lu Yun taking out the jade token like a magic trick, "You guys are wearing the same set of jade tokens."
Shen Nian looked down and saw the jade tokens that were put together, then looked at Ning Wen, "Stepmother."
Qi Yuning also looked at Ning Wen and asked, "What's going on?"
Ning Wen said, "When the little prince was young, he sneaked into the palace to play. He saw me staring at the jade plaque and asked for it. This jade plaque was given by your grandfather as a wedding gift for me and your fourth uncle, and he also wanted to pass it down as a family heirloom..."
Qi Yuning looked at the quality of the jade plate. This jade plate was indeed a priceless gem.
Ning Wen said, "At that time, your fourth uncle had passed away. I saw that the young prince really liked these two jade plaques, so I gave them to him and told him that they were heirlooms passed down from your grandfather. I asked him to give the jade pendant to his future wife. He also said at that time that he would give the round jade plaque inside to you..."
Qi Yuning had some recollection. At that time, Lu Yun, who was only five years old, wanted to give her a jade pendant, but Qi Yuning did not like to play with Lu Yun at that time, so she did not accept it.
Young children always want to play with those older than themselves, but older children also dislike their younger brothers and sisters.
Ning Wen said: "At that time you said you didn't want the jade pendant from the young prince, and the young prince was very sad and cried secretly in my courtyard. Nian Nian was a sensible child, and seeing that the young prince couldn't give away the jade pendant, she comforted him and said that this jade pendant was beautiful, could it be given to her?
After the young prince put the jade pendant on Nian Nian, she stopped crying, and Nian Nian has been wearing the jade pendant ever since. "
When Lu Yun heard what they said, he shook his head and said, "That's not true. This is the jade token that my grandfather gave to my parents. After my wife and I got married, my parents gave this jade token to us. You really are my wife. I am not mistaken!"
Qi Yuning felt a little headache. Unfortunately, he still had the jade token from his childhood as evidence. This little bald guy Lu Yun would probably believe his wild imagination even more.
Shen Nian took off the jade token from her neck and gave it to Lu Yun, “I’m not your wife, and I don’t want your jade token, so go away!”
Lu Yun held the jade token together, his hands trembling, "My wife, do you really not want me?"
Shen Nian said: “You get out!”
Lu Yun said with a heartache: "My wife..."
Qi Yuning dragged the still sad Lu Yun out of Chen Nian's room and met Lu Ze who was waiting outside the room and said, "We don't know when Qin Zhen's troops will arrive. We need to find a few more people to send him back to North City."
"I won't go back. I swear to be with my wife till death!"
Lu Ze looked at Lu Yun and frowned, "You haven't gotten married yet."
Lu Yun asked, "If I hadn't gotten married, why would the heirloom jade pendant my grandfather gave me be around my wife's neck?"
Lu Ze asked, "How come I don't know what heirloom jade plaque my grandfather left behind?"
Qi Yuning explained to Lu Ze: "He has lost his soul and gone insane. His memory is completely disordered, but he is still so stubborn."
Lu Ze looked at Lu Yun helplessly and said, "Go back to North City first."
Lu Yun shook his head and said, "I won't go back. I want to be with my wife. I only remember my wife."
Lu Ze said, "It's late at night now, and the doctor also said that Shen Nian should have a good rest. You should go to bed with me first, and we will talk tomorrow morning."
Lu Ze only hopes that Lu Yun will recall his past and future when he wakes up.
Lu Yun said: "Sleeping with you? I don't want to sleep with you, I want to sleep with my wife!"
Qi Yuning: “…”
Lu Ze really had no other choice, so he ordered someone to find Bai Manniang's maid and ask her if she had any more sleeping pills. After getting the pills, he gave Lu Yun a cup of tea, and then he stopped making a fuss and started to rest well.
Seeing Lu Yun was knocked unconscious, Qi Yuning said to Lu Ze, "I'm sorry, my brother was too reckless."
Lu Ze said, "Don't blame me, Brother Qi. I didn't go easy on him before. You don't have to worry too much. Even if he has forgotten the past, we can tell him slowly. But I'm afraid that Qin Zhen's troops will arrive soon. We have to send him to the North City first to feel at ease."
Qi Yuning nodded and said, "Yes."
Lu Ze called his eight secret guards and gave the drug to Deqing, asking Deqing to give Lu Yun the drug when he woke up and send Lu Yun back to North City first.
Lu Ze thought that since his parents were in Beicheng, Lu Yun would be able to recover his memory quickly if he could reminisce about the past with them more often.
…
Three days later, the sky was very gloomy, and white and yellow paper money were flying all over the sky.
The soldiers held up rows of white banners, and Han'er, who was still in his infancy, was wrapped in a white cloth and held in Chen Nian's arms, and the group went to the cemetery for the funeral.
Qi Yuning was beside Shen Nian, and seeing her painful expression, he sighed softly.
When the coffin arrived at the cemetery, Shen Nian cried heartbreakingly when she saw Huang Rui's coffin being buried, and even Han'er cried out loudly.
Qi Yuning felt very uncomfortable watching this scene.
Seeing Deqing rushing over, she was startled and even went to Lu Ze's side. Deqing came forward and knelt in front of Lu Ze and said, "My lord, the young prince didn't drink the drug I gave him and ran away. I don't know where he went!"
Over there, a soldier in armor rode a fast horse and said, "Report! Your Majesty, Qin Zhen has arrived in Qinzhou with 100,000 soldiers and horses, and will reach the border of Longzhou in two days."
After Qi Yu'an offered incense to Huang Tao and Huang Rui, he did not dare to delay and went back to deploy the war.
Seeing Lu Ze's worry, Qi Yuning said, "Lu Yun is smart. Although he has forgotten the past, I believe he will be safe and sound."
