Chapter 77: Xiaolu's memory has recovered 5%. Why do I believe others but not others?

The next day, Qin Yuqing handed a brocade bag to the fourth princess, Qin Qinqin, and said, "Fourth sister, keep this and open it when necessary."

Hearing this, Qin Qinqin curiously took the brocade bag, examined it carefully, and said, "This is quite novel." Then, Qin Qinqin stepped forward, hugged Qin Yuqing, and whispered in her ear, "Sixth Sister, please tell Pu Qinghe that he ran away last night and left me without finishing my words."

"I will chase him to the ends of the earth. There's no use running away."

Qin Yuqing nodded, patted Qin Qinqin on the back and said, "Don't worry, Fourth Sister."

After saying goodbye to everyone, Qin Yuqing got on a carriage and headed for Cangzhou with some food and herbs.

This time, it was Park Qinghe who was driving the carriage with a cold face and acting as the coachman, while Chuntao sat beside him.

In the carriage, Qin Yuqing and Xiaolu sat side by side, and Lord Chen sat on the other side, looking at Qin Yuqing with loving eyes.

"Over the years, it is our Baili family and the Chen family who have let you down." After a long time, Lord Chen spoke and apologized to Qin Yuqing again.

Qin Yuqing is not a shy person. Now that she knows that they have their own reasons, she will not hold on to this matter.

Besides, if she really wants to apologize, she shouldn't apologize to her, but to the heroine of the original book. After all, she has not experienced the grievances that the heroine of the original book has suffered. On the contrary, she lives a good life in modern times.

"It's okay." Qin Yuqing looked at the little deer beside him. Since they were once a big family, they must know something about Alhan's affairs.

So, does Lord Chen know something about Xiaolu and Xiaowu?

"Sir Chen, there is something I want to ask you." According to seniority, Qin Yuqing should call him uncle, but Qin Yuqing couldn't say it, always feeling a little uncomfortable.

Maybe it’s because she is not the heroine of the original book, so she cannot occupy this family relationship, even if they may be twins.

"Just say it, as long as it is something I know and can say, I will tell you everything I know." There was a flash of disappointment in Lord Chen's eyes, but it was quickly concealed.

He understood Qin Yuqing's feelings. Before coming, he knew about Qin Yuqing's life in the palace. Being able to sit with him and talk peacefully at this moment was something that Lord Chen had not expected.

"It's about the High Priest of Arhan. I once interrogated an Arhan man in Yanyun City. Not long ago, the High Priest of Arhan died unexpectedly. Have you heard any rumors?"

Xiaolu looked at Qin Yuqing in surprise. She subconsciously grabbed Qin Yuqing's sleeve. She was a little afraid to hear the news, but she also wanted to know what had happened.

Is it the same as what that person said, that it is her and her brother's fault?

"I know a little bit. There is a river in the west of our dynasty that runs through Dayin and Arhan. It is called the Liujing River." Lord Chen said slowly.

"The Baili family is in charge of waterway commerce and is extremely well-informed about the news on the waterways."

Flowing Crystal River?

If I remember correctly, Park Qinghe once said that he was picked up in Liujing River.

"Last year, a sad atmosphere came from Liujing River." Lord Chen said in a low voice. Seeing the puzzled looks of Qin Yuqing and Xiaolu, he explained.

"Rivers actually have their own feelings. Perhaps this is strange to you, but it is normal to me."

"Like last year's Liujing River, it represents sorrow, while the Chan and Luo rivers are silent cries for help and painful wails."

Qin Yuqing nodded. Perhaps this was what it meant to deal with something for a long time, creating an emotional connection that ordinary people could not understand or perceive.

"Last year, I traveled along the Flowing Crystal River all the way to Arhan and rescued a pair of twins along the way. One of the girls looked quite similar to the one next to the Sixth Princess."

Xiaolu opened her eyes wide. She had no memory of anything. She pointed at herself and asked, "Me?"

"That's right." Lord Chen smiled at Xiaolu. "It was raining heavily, but I like to travel in rainy weather. As soon as I arrived at the river, I saw two unconscious people. They looked similar and were close to Arhan, so I guessed they were Arhan's twins."

"Looking at their clothing, which is much more elaborate than that of the average Arhan, I can guess that these twins hold a high status in Arhan. Yet, they are covered in wounds, as if they were being chased and accidentally fell into the river while fleeing."

"Originally, this matter was not something I should be involved in, but the river wanted to entrust the children to me. Both the Baili family and the Chen family will abide by the water's wishes, so I hid the children in the boat."

Lord Chen picked up the tea beside him. His mouth was dry from his talk, so he took a sip and continued, "Sure enough, a group of people soon came to the boat along the river. Probably because this is the territory of the Great Yin, and the Baili family's boats all have the family crest, they just asked me if I had seen a pair of twins."

"I told them I hadn't seen anything, and they left. I think they didn't want to alert Dayin, so I was able to successfully keep the twins a secret."

"But when I returned to the boat, there was no trace of the twins. Now I think they woke up while I was negotiating and ran away in fear."

Xiaolu shook her head. She nervously tugged at the corner of Qin Yuqing's clothes and said, "Xiaolu doesn't remember."

Qin Yuqing rubbed Xiaolu's head comfortingly. She could feel Xiaolu's uneasiness, which was the uneasiness about the loss of memory. What Lord Chen said did not sound like a lie. Something must have happened during this period.

"If the twins had fallen unconscious near the river, it would have been impossible for those searching for them to search along the river. This suggests that the twins had fallen unconscious somewhere else and were then carried here by the water."

Lord Chen nodded, and looked at Qin Yuqing with an increasingly gratified look: "That's right. I know I shouldn't meddle in other people's business, but I was really curious, so I went upstream against the current, and sure enough, I saw some traces."

"That's a very high cliff, and there are some cloth strips hanging above it." Lord Chen took out a small cloth bag and explained, "I heard about the goddess and the divine messenger in the capital not long ago. I always felt that it was related to the twins, so I brought it with me this time when I came to Ling County."

The small cloth bag was handed directly to Xiaolu. She looked at Qin Yuqing with some fear, and there was confusion in her eyes that she didn't even notice.

"Take a look first. After all, it is related to your memory. Don't you and your brother always want to get your memory back?" Qin Yuqing noticed Xiaolu's uneasiness and comforted her.

Xiaolu nodded, she opened the cloth bag and saw the remaining yellowed clothes inside. In an instant, a golden light flashed in her eyes.

Some complex and vast memories appeared in her mind.

"don't want!"

“Why are you killing us?”

"The death of the high priest has nothing to do with us!"

The little deer shook his head in fear, kept saying strange words, and waved his hands in a defensive posture.

Qin Yuqing hugged Xiaolu, who was trapped in a nightmare, and kept comforting him, "It's okay, it's all over."

The deer grabbed Qin Yuqing's hand and bit it hard.

Qin Yuqing gasped in pain and frowned. What happened between Xiaolu and Xiaowu that made her have such a big reaction when she thought about it?

"Princess, what's wrong with you?" Chuntao's worried voice came immediately.

"Did Chen bully you? I'll kill him." Park Qinghe also said.

"It's okay. The deer is not in the right condition. You guys keep driving." Qin Yuqing said immediately. She and Lord Chen controlled the deer with force.

At this moment, the deer's eyes were bloodshot, revealing fear, but more of it was the grievance of being slandered.

"There's something fishy about the high priest's death. Why do you believe what those outsiders say?"

"My brother and I were born in Arhan and raised by the High Priest. How could we do anything to harm the High Priest?"

"Don't kill us!"

Realizing that this couldn't go on any longer, Qin Yuqing picked up the tea beside him and poured it directly on Xiaolu's face. Looking at the other's trembling body, he said coldly.

"Look carefully where this is."

The touch of the ice-cold tea stimulated Xiaolu. Her eyes focused briefly, and she spoke in a halting voice, "Princess, it's the Sixth Princess."

Qin Yuqing picked up another bowl of tea and poured it on him again: "If you can't get out, I think you don't have to follow me."

Lord Chen looked at Qin Yuqing with complicated eyes. Qin Yuqing's appearance at this moment gave him a sense of familiarity, as if this was her real appearance.

The fawn trembled continuously, and its pupils focused again.

"Yes, stay with the princess."

But the next moment, the pupils dilated again, the deer's face gradually turned pale, and its breathing became rapid.

"don't want!"

Xiaolu subconsciously grabbed Qin Yuqing's hand, and his pupils focused again.

"Fawn and brother, stay with the princess."

"Safety."

This repeated more than ten times, and the deer's mood gradually stabilized. Although his body was still shaking, his consciousness was clear and he knew exactly where he was.

"Princess, I'm sorry." Xiaolu saw the wound on Qin Yuqing's arm and lowered his head guiltily to apologize.

Qin Yuqing patted Xiaolu's head: "What did you see?"

Xiaolu unconsciously reached out to grab Qin Yuqing's sleeve, but remembered that he had just bitten her, so he withdrew his hand.

But the next moment, Qin Yuqing naturally stretched out her hand, let Xiaolu grab her arm, and motioned her to speak out.

Xiaolu stared at the sleeve in her hand in a daze. She suddenly laughed. Qin Yuqing's sleeve gave her a great sense of security. She took a deep breath and said.

"The deer saw a group of people, holding weapons, chasing my brother and me." The deer's voice trembled. "They said that my brother and I killed the high priest, and that our presence led to his death."

"My brother and I didn't even have a chance to explain before they pushed us onto the cliff. They said they were going to capture us and bring us back to be presented to the adults."

"However, my brother and I disagreed, saying that they believed outsiders and not me and me. In the end, my brother and I had no choice but to jump off the cliff and fall into the Flowing Crystal River."

Qin Yuqing nodded, thinking back to what Master Chen had said, and asked Xiaolu, "Do you have any impression of who this master is?"

The deer shook his head honestly and said, "I only remember a small fragment just now, but I'm sure my brother and I, who jumped off the cliff, know who this adult is referring to."

After hearing Xiaolu's words, Master Chen said thoughtfully, "These two children probably had no memories when they woke up. They were afraid of the unfamiliar environment, and they might have seen the people who persecuted them. So they ran away out of fear."

Qin Yuqing had a rough guess about this adult.

It’s most likely Yu Bingyan.

Yu Bingyan, who was still suffering from diarrhea in the capital, sneezed for no apparent reason, and as a result, he felt a warm and extremely sharp stinging sensation in his vagina.

Looking at the disgusted eyes of the servants in the mansion was more painful than killing him.

But it is said that when you sneeze, someone is thinking about you.

Sure enough, his little Aruan still couldn't bear to leave him.
