Ye Wanqing uttered an "ah" and said coquettishly, "Your Highness the Prince Regent is the one who is so majestic."
She hesitated slightly, thinking carefully about the scene before Shen Xu fainted, when he raised his weapon and asked them to let go of Pei Zhiyuan, and said, "I see that he treats you very well and takes good care of you."
Shen Xu uttered a soft "oh" and raised his lips slightly.
Having lost her memory for four years, she once again thought of herself as the hated prince of Tingnan Marquisate. When she heard that someone liked her and treated her well, she felt secretly delighted.
Her face flushed slightly. "You...you go and call His Royal Highness the Regent in. I have something to ask him."
Ye Wanqing smiled and nodded, opened the door and called Pei Zhiyuan in.
As soon as Pei Zhiyuan entered the room, he strode to the bedside, hugged Shen Xu's body, and said anxiously: "Do you really not remember me? Do you remember the promise you made to me? You said you would never leave me..."
"Your Highness, the Prince Regent?" Shen Xu let Pei Zhiyuan hold her tightly. She reached out and patted his back, saying soothingly, "Don't worry, I just don't remember you for now. I'll remember everything sooner or later."
Pei Zhiyuan paused, and couldn't help but become nervous. "So, are you going back to the Southern Territory?"
Shen Xu nodded, "My family is all in the southern border..."
She let go of Pei Zhiyuan, and looked at the man in front of her with her beautiful cat eyes, smiling, "Do you want to go back to the southern border with me and meet my family?
By the way, have I met your family? I don’t remember anything now. Tell me what happened in the past four years…”
Pei Zhiyuan looked into her clear and expectant eyes and nodded blankly. He told her everything that happened after he met her, but he concealed the fact that Song Lin was with her.
He knew that she was very smart and would notice some clues sooner or later, so he did not hide Song Lin, but erased the feelings between them.
Shen Xu lifted up his trouser leg and gently stroked the scar on his calf. "Don't tell my brother Yan about this. If he knew I was pecked by an eagle, he would laugh at me."
"Who dares to laugh at my princess?" Pei Zhiyuan held her body lovingly. Their experience was much richer than that between her and Song Lin. He was fully qualified to replace her.
Shen Xu held his hand, and suddenly thought of something, breaking free from his embrace, "Pei Zhiyuan, tell me, I got married two years ago, why am I not pregnant?"
Pei Zhiyuan's expression was stern and his eyes were slightly flustered.
"We are busy governing the country. If you want, we can have children first."
Shen Xu suddenly realized, "That makes sense. Fortunately, I don't have children. I have recovered my memory now. We have different political positions.
Helping you is like repaying your life-saving grace. I also have the mission of restoring my country. Let's get divorced."
"What!" Pei Zhiyuan was stunned. "Then we..."
Shen Xu interrupted him and explained, "This is Yanyang Country's internal affairs. I don't want to involve you..."
“Miss Shen, are we just going to let go of our relationship of all these years?”
"sorry……"
"Don't tell me you're sorry."
"But I didn't remember my own position at the beginning, that's why I was with you..."
Pei Zhiyuan thought for a moment and said solemnly: "Let's go to the imperial court of Yanyang Kingdom together, and I will help your brother seize the throne.
It doesn't matter if you lost your memory, let's start over, okay? Just think of it as meeting me again."
“No, if Haoyue Country rashly sends troops, it will become a diplomatic issue between the two countries.
Even if peace is restored in the future, conflicts and contradictions will arise among the people.”
"Then don't send troops. I..." Pei Zhiyuan was silent for a moment, as if he had made a great decision, "I will go to the southern border with you."
"Pei Zhiyuan?" Shen Xu looked at Pei Zhiyuan in surprise.
"Wherever you go, I'll go. You promised me you wouldn't abandon me, you wouldn't leave me."
Looking at Pei Zhiyuan's anxious and sincere eyes, Shen Xu's mood was very complicated, "I'm not worthy of your humbleness..."
"It's worth it. You saved my life. Without you, I'm nothing."
"No..." Shen Xu suppressed the guilt in his eyes and swallowed the words "I really don't remember who you are". After a long while, he said in a hoarse voice: "Okay, I won't leave you."
…
The group rested in Xiling City for two days. Shen Xu met Jiang Yu and they hit it off immediately. They spent the whole day together exchanging academic experiences.
"Brother Jiang Yu, that's great. How did you come up with the idea of using steam to brake machinery?" Shen Xu couldn't help but admire the blueprint.
Jiang Yu scratched his head shyly and said that he discovered it by accident. He would not have succeeded so quickly. It was mainly due to the financial and material support from his brother Yi.
"Brother Yi...you and Fu Yi get along really well."
"Yes, Sister Axu, Brother Yi is actually a very easygoing person. He doesn't look very fierce at all. He often brings us gifts."
Xie Ning'er held her chin and stretched out her hand, with a beautiful starlight cat's eye bracelet hanging on her wrist.
Shen Xu smiled lightly, "That Fu Yi is quite thoughtful."
"By the way, Sister Xu, did you design this weapon?" Xie Ning'er picked up the air gun that Shen Xu had placed on the table and studied it carefully.
"So impressive, what's the principle behind it?"
Shen Xu picked up the gun and looked at it, then slowly disassembled it and said as he studied it, “This shouldn’t be my design, I’m not sure about it.
However, it seems to have a damper mechanism inside. Once it is filled with air and compressed, it can generate a huge propulsion force, rapidly ejecting the projectile inside and causing damage."
Jiang Yu nodded and praised the exquisite design.
He said that the Southern Border Army and the Yanyang Army were now fighting at Nanguan. The Yanyang Army had a force of 600,000, more than twice the number of the Southern Border Army. If the Southern Border Army had such equipment, it was believed that the stalemate of the long battle would be broken soon.
Shen Xu smiled, patted Jiang Yu on the shoulder, and said that the war would be over soon, and by then he would lay his steam trains to every corner of the world.
By then, Haoyue Kingdom and Yanyang Kingdom will form a research alliance, and all technologies that promote world development will be brought to the stage.
"Sister Axu, are you really determined to help Haoyue Country?"
Hearing her say this, Jiang Yu seemed a little embarrassed.
Shen Xu smiled and said, "Brother Jiang Yu, what was our original purpose in studying those things in that courtyard day and night?
My purpose is very simple, I just want to have more joy and less sadness under the clear sky and blue clouds.
Pei Zhiyuan... I feel like he's a good person. He said he wanted to help me, and I also want to help him.
My brother, who brought all the things we hid in the backyard out into the sunlight, must have had the same purpose."
