"The food in the imperial kitchen is getting worse and worse. This doesn't even taste as good as the one I ate when I was a kid."

"You always followed the Fourth Princess when you were little, so the meals you ate were naturally made in her small kitchen. They must be better than the ones made by the common people." Lu Anyuan saw that she didn't eat much, so he took off the purse from his waist and pushed it to Xu Yixing.

"Oh, pickled plums? You like to eat this too!" Xu Yixing was so happy, because Yi Yan didn't like sour things, and there would be no plum snacks in her room, and he hadn't eaten it for a long time.

"Hmm, authentic!" Xu Yixing took a bite. This was his favorite flavor. He never expected Lu Anyuan to have the same taste as him. "Hiss, you're not imitating me in eating plums, are you?"

"Who said you're the only one who likes to eat it?" Lu Anyuan took back his purse and chewed one, but it was really sour. After eating it for so long, he still couldn't get used to it.

"Okay, okay, if it's not true, then it's not true. I just didn't expect Ying Fei to let us go so quickly. Why didn't you ask a little longer?"

"You've already poked her lungs, and you still expect her to say anything more?"

"Then who asked her to ridicule my family first?"

"Alas!" Lu Anyuan stood up, signaling that the dishes could be cleared away. He glanced outside a few times before saying, "Concubine Ying and the Second Prince aren't as affable as they were up there. You should be more careful with your words in the future, and don't let anyone catch you."

"I see. There is no such thing as a simple person in your family."

"How can the royal family be simple? We'll go around the three concubines' palaces later, and then you can go home."

"What a miserable life!" Xu Yixing tidied up his clothes. Fortunately, the shoes he wore today fit his feet, otherwise he would be exhausted from walking.

The remaining three palaces were all in the south, so it didn't take much effort. Even the Empress and Consort Ying didn't bother them, let alone the remaining three. But after a quick formality, Xu Yixing's exercise for the day was finally over.

When he was about to leave the palace, Xu Yixing looked into the distance and saw some dilapidated palaces in the south, which were completely out of place with the surrounding environment.

"What is that place?"

Lu Anyuan looked over and his expression changed slightly.

"The cold palace is unlucky. Let's go. I'll take you back."

Xu Yixing knew that the Cold Palace was not a specific palace, but a general term for palaces that had fallen into disrepair. Furthermore, all the concubines who had made mistakes were sent to those palaces. With the people and the place being in disrepair, everyone avoided them.

"Have I been to that place before?" Xu Yixing squinted his eyes and looked over there. He seemed to have some memories, but he couldn't remember clearly.

"How is that possible? That place is haunted in broad daylight. How could you go to such a place?" God bless her, don't dare let her think of that at this time, otherwise the marriage will be cancelled sooner or later.

"Tsk!" Xu Yixing had been about to get on the cart, but now he sat directly on the shaft. His feet wobbled, unable to reach the ground. This was actually quite unruly, but since they were all on the same side, no one said anything.

"Your Highness, I always feel like there's something wrong with my brain."

"Why do you say that?" Lu Anyuan stood opposite her, blocking her view of the cold palace.

"I always feel like my memories of the past are very confused. It seems like it happened, but it seems like I'm dreaming. For example, the sugarcane juice incident you mentioned, if it were someone else, they would definitely remember it very clearly. After all, knocking over something sent by the Empress Dowager in the upper study is a serious crime, right?"

Xu Yixing scratched his head: "But I really don't have any impression at all, and I don't remember seeing you at that time."

"That's because you were still a child at that time, it's normal that you can't remember it." Oh my god, it would be troublesome if you remembered it.

"No."

Xu Yixing shook her head. She had never doubted her memory before, and she had always thought that no one could remember things from their childhood. But after inheriting Yi Yan's memories, she found that Yi Yan could remember things clearly, at least more clearly than she could.

Moreover, she saw some of her figures in Yi Yan's memories, but Yi Yan remembered those things, but she didn't. Yi Yan was even younger than herself at that time, so how could he remember them?

For example, Yi Yan's memory suggested that her sister had been seriously ill, but Xu Yixing had no recollection of this. She had always been in excellent health, rarely suffering from headaches or fevers, so how could she possibly be seriously ill?

"I can't explain it, it's just very strange." Xu Yixing didn't plan to tell Lu Anyuan that he inherited Yi Yan's memories, otherwise it would be bad if the private affairs between the two of them were dug up again.

"You're just too smart, and you have too many things on your mind, that's why this happens. Just relax and stop overthinking. Maybe it will be fine in a year or two."

"Okay, let's go home!" Xu Yixing said, then suddenly turned around and asked Lu Anyuan, "Was that really the first time we met?"

This frightened Lu Anyuan so much that he immediately said with full confidence: "Yes, I am very sure that I have never seen you before."

"If you say so, then so be it." She got into the carriage. Lu Anyuan had originally wanted to see her off, but now there was no need for that.

Lu Anyuan was worried that she would look at him again, and it would be troublesome if she remembered it.

"Ah Da, you're going to pass a message to Mr. Yao today. Besides asking about Madam Sun's condition, please also ask for my opinion on whether there is any medicine that can completely erase a person's memory."

Lu Anyuan was too scared. If she remembered what he had done to her, how would she react?

Xu Yixing returned home exhausted. He quickly replied to his father and went back to his room to sleep.

When he woke up, it was already dark. Xu Yixing called out Ying Jiu and asked him very seriously.

"You didn't go to the palace with me today, but did you go to see Shadow 4? Do you think there's any medicine that can make a person lose their memory for a period of time?"

Ying Jiu had indeed not gone there today. That was the imperial palace, with strict security and many experts. If the shadow guard showed up, he would probably be shot like a hedgehog immediately.

"Well... isn't that a drug?"

"I'm not talking about that kind of loss. For example, if a person is already twenty years old and wants to erase his memories before the age of ten, but the rest of his memories remain intact, is it possible?"

"Impossible, there is no such medicine." Although Ying Jiu was not proficient in poisons, he had never heard of this kind of medicine.

"I also said it's impossible..."

"However, if we give that person drugs when he's ten years old so that he forgets all his previous memories, then his later memories won't be affected. Doesn't that make sense?"

"What?"
