"Xie Jia, it seems your master has lost his memory. Let Physician Zhang examine him first. If he can't find anything wrong, then take him back to the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion and let Mr. Li examine him." Ye Jingchen made a quick decision.

Xie Chang'an, in his amnesiac state, is clearly not suitable to stay in the Eastern Palace. Putting aside everything else, just his self-proclaimed title alone would be a pretext for the emperor to use to launch an attack if he found out.

Moreover, Xie Chang'an was a suspicious person to begin with. After losing the memories of nearly twenty years of living together, he was nothing more than an enemy to Xie Chang'an.

No matter what he says to Xie Chang'an now, Xie Chang'an will not believe him.

So it would be better to send Xie Chang'an home and let his family tell him what has happened over the years; he would be more likely to accept it that way.

"Yes," Xie Jia replied.

He could now see that the Lord's condition was clearly not right.

However, which good person suffers from selective amnesia?

He even refers to himself as "朕" (the imperial "I"). Does His Majesty think the Duke of Zhenguo's family is having too good a life now?

"As a secret guard, one who betrays his master shall die!" Xie Chang'an looked coldly at Xie Jia.

"Don't worry about what he says, he's not thinking straight right now," Ye Jingchen said to Xie Jia.

"You're nothing but a piece of trash—"

"Xie Jia, help your master change his clothes. Physician Zhang should be arriving soon," Ye Jingchen interrupted Xie Chang'an before he could finish speaking and gave the order.

Now that things have come to this, hasn't Xie Chang'an noticed that the two of them are still in the same bed? Doesn't he feel awkward about it?

Reminded by Ye Jingchen, Xie Chang'an finally realized what was happening and jumped off the bed as if his pants were on fire.

Their clothes were both hanging on the clothes rack, mixed together. These clothes all looked unfamiliar, and Xie Chang'an had no idea which clothes were his.

Following Ye Jingchen's instructions, Xie Jia took out Xie Chang'an's clothes and handed them to him.

While Xie Chang'an was getting dressed, Ye Jingchen also got out of bed to get dressed. As they walked, Xie Chang'an noticed that not only on his neck, but also on many other exposed areas of his skin, there were suggestive marks.

Although he had never experienced these things himself, he had seen quite a few. With so many marks left on his body, one could imagine how intense their lovemaking must have been!

The thought of Ye Jingchen lying next to him with such marks made Xie Chang'an feel uncomfortable all over.

When he finished dressing and discovered that Ye Jingchen's clothes were exactly the same style and embroidery as his own, only the color was different, his expression turned even uglier.

"I don't like this outfit. Change it!" Xie Chang'an ordered Xie Jia.

Xie Jia quickly looked at Ye Jingchen.

Seeing Xie Jia's reaction, Xie Chang'an's face darkened to the point of being dripping with gloom.

"Princess Consort, this is the palace of Dayuan. Here, only the Emperor can refer to himself as '朕' (Zhen). If you don't want to implicate the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion, it would be best if you never used that word again," Ye Jingchen said to Xie Chang'an with a smile.

Xie Chang'an looked at the smiling Ye Jingchen and a thought struck him.

It has to be said that the Ye Jingchen in front of him looks much more pleasing to the eye than the Ye Jingchen in his memory.

However, Xie Chang'an was annoyed by his constant calling her "Crown Princess" and wanted to sew his mouth shut.

How could she possibly marry a man?

"Don't call me Crown Princess, or I'll kill you!" Xie Chang'an said in a deep voice, his face full of disgust.

Ye Jingchen and Xie Chang'an stared at each other for a moment, then Ye Jingchen put his hands behind his back, pinched the soft flesh of his left arm hard with his right hand, and his eyes instantly filled with tears.

He blinked hard again, and his eyes immediately turned red.

"Who was it that kept pestering me for a title before? Now that you've got it, you don't cherish it anymore?" he questioned, his eyes red, looking at Xie Chang'an as if he were a heartless man.

Xie Chang'an's forehead veins throbbed.

He retracted his previous thought that Ye Jingchen was pleasing to the eye!

"Your Highness, Imperial Physician Zhang has arrived." Just then, Fangfei's voice rang out from outside the door.

"Please invite him in." Ye Jingchen glanced at the furious Xie Chang'an with a half-smile, then found a chair and sat down.

Fangfei helped the old imperial physician into the bedchamber and was surprised to find that the two masters, who usually liked to stick together, were sitting at opposite ends of the table today. His Highness was looking at the Crown Princess, but the Crown Princess did not fix her gaze on His Highness as usual. Instead, she looked elsewhere and exuded an aura that kept strangers away.

That's really amazing!

"Imperial Physician Zhang, please examine the Crown Princess first. It seems she has some memory problems," Ye Jingchen said to the old imperial physician.

Fangfei helped Imperial Physician Zhang to Xie Chang'an.

"Greetings to the Crown Princess!" Fangfei didn't pay special respects to Ye Jingchen, but instead greeted Xie Chang'an first, because she knew that Xie Chang'an liked to hear them call him 'Crown Princess,' and that he would reward them with silver when he was happy.

Of course, the most important reason is that His Highness dotes on the Crown Princess and knows that she cares about her status, so he specifically instructed them to treat her as the true mistress of the Eastern Palace.

"Your Highness, please extend your hand so that this old minister may take your pulse," the old imperial physician said to Xie Chang'an.

Hearing these people calling her "Crown Princess" so casually, Xie Chang'an was furious.

If Ye Jingchen hadn't mentioned the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion earlier, which made him somewhat concerned, he would have definitely killed all of them!

"Imperial Physician Zhang is the best physician in the palace. His medical skills are superb, on par with Mr. Li," Ye Jingchen said with a smile when he saw that Xie Chang'an was not cooperating.

Xie Chang'an didn't think there was anything wrong with his memory; he just felt that there was something wrong with the people around him. But when Ye Jingchen said that this imperial physician's medical skills were actually on par with Mr. Li's, he became somewhat tempted.

He suffers from a chronic illness, so it's a good opportunity to see if this imperial physician can offer any useful advice.

With that thought in mind, he reached out his hand.

After taking his pulse for a moment, Imperial Physician Zhang withdrew his hand and said to Ye Jingchen, "Your Highness, the Crown Princess is in good health and there is no problem at all."

"Quack doctor!" Xie Chang'an said with some disappointment and sarcasm.

"Don't take it personally, Physician Zhang. He's got some mental issues right now," Ye Jingchen said with a smile.

Physician Zhang could now see that Xie Chang'an's condition was somewhat abnormal, and said with shame, "It is because this old minister's medical skills are not good enough that I cannot diagnose the Crown Princess's problem."

"Xie Jia, take your master back to the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion," Ye Jingchen instructed.

Although he wanted to personally escort Xie Chang'an to the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion, given Xie Chang'an's current state, he would likely be very resistant to him. He decided to keep his distance for now and wait until Xie Chang'an had met his family and calmed down before trying to help him regain his memory.

Hearing about the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion again from Ye Jingchen, Xie Chang'an didn't want to stay here a moment longer. He immediately walked quickly out of the bedroom, and Xie Jia followed closely behind.
