Chapter 13
Li Ningyun told Marquis Wu'an about what had happened recently in the capital and the fact that Lady Guo Wang was now paralyzed in bed.
He also told Marquis Wu'an about how he had poisoned Lady Guo Wang.
Marquis Wu'an looked at Li Ningyun in shock: "My dear, how could you do such a thing?"
Li Ningyun shook his head and dropped another bombshell: "Dad, Guo An is not dead."
Marquis Wu An jumped up from his chair. "What did you say? Girl, you said Guo An is not dead!?"
Li Ningyun nodded: "I went to see him on the way here."
Marquis Wu'an quickly pressed the issue, "What's his current situation? Why hasn't he returned in half a year? Is something holding him back?"
"Dad, don't be anxious. Let me tell you slowly. I had a dream before. I dreamed of some things. The dream was very real, so real that I felt it was a warning from God. Sure enough, the next day I received the news that Guo An's body was gone, and what happened next was exactly the same as in my dream.
Guo Wangshi scolded her father-in-law who came to deliver the imperial edict and tried to comfort her. I subconsciously tried to persuade him a few times, but Guo Wangshi accused me of seducing her father-in-law.
Upon hearing this, Marquis Wu'an slammed the table and said, "How dare you, Guo Wangshi, humiliate my daughter like this! Are you bullying me because my Li family has no one left? Don't be afraid, my daughter. I will send someone to your in-laws' house to vent your anger on you."
Li Ningyun patted Wu'an Hou's arm soothingly. "Father, why are you so irritable? My mother-in-law is still lying in bed. What if you go there and beat her up again?"
Marquis Wu'an:...Uh, I forgot about this.
Wu Anhou touched his nose awkwardly and sat down again: "My daughter, go on."
Li Ningyun nodded: "Then I fed her a kind of medicine that I bought in the temple for fun. But don't worry, Dad, that medicine is not fatal. I just wanted to scare her.
Now that Guo An is gone from the General's Mansion, it has become a place where anyone can trample on it at will. If it weren't for the fact that I am your legitimate daughter, we would probably all be sleeping on the street now.
It’s good that she’s like this now, so she doesn’t have to go out and get into trouble.”
Marquis Wu'an nodded subconsciously.
But I feel like something is not right.
Li Ningyun continued, "Later, I left the capital on the pretext of seeking a renowned doctor for my mother-in-law and came to the border, hoping to verify whether what I had dreamt about was real."
Wu Anhou was puzzled: "What happened in your dream? Did it mean that Guo An didn't die?"
Li Ningyun nodded: "Yes, in the dream, Guo An was not dead, but he lost his memory. He was saved by a woman, and they fell in love and got married. Three years later, Guo An regained his memory and returned to the general's mansion with his child..."
Li Ningyun kept talking without caring whether his father could digest these things.
Just spill the beans.
Then he looked at the stunned Marquis Wu'an.
"Father, that's why you need to make plans early. Everything I said before has been verified, and it's all true. If you follow the dream, the next emperor will be the Fifth Prince. Then your situation will be dangerous."
Wu An Hou took a deep breath and said seriously, "My daughter, you must keep this matter to yourself. Don't tell anyone. Even in your sleep, you can't utter a single word. Remember this!"
Li Ningyun nodded: "I understand, Dad."
"By the way, Dad, you don't have to worry about Guo An. I have a way with him."
Wu Anhou was curious: "What do you have in mind?"
Li Ningyun approached slyly and whispered to Marquis Wu'an, "I disfigured Guo An and took away everything that could prove his identity. So even if he remembered, it would be useless to go to the capital. He is now a refugee with nothing to prove his identity."
Marquis Wu'an: "..."
He looked at the girl in front of him with a slightly sly smile, raised his hand and gently tapped her forehead.
"You, just be naughty."
Well, my daughter was killed by Guo An in her previous life, and all the more than 300 lives in Wu'an Marquis Mansion were also killed.
Now my daughter must be blessed by God and can predict the future, otherwise her fate would probably be the same as in the dream. Then even killing Guo An would not be enough to pay for her life. What's wrong with bullying her now?
It can be said that Marquis Wu'an dotes on his daughter without any bottom line.
In other words, the original owner's personality was like her mother's.
She was a gentle and virtuous girl, which is why she was not spoiled by Marquis Wu'an and turned into a little devil.
But then again, if he really had that kind of personality, there probably wouldn't be any need for Li Ningyun to come.
The original owner could have whipped the two of them out on the day Guo An brought Yu Chun'er to his house.
After Li Ningyun gave Wu'an Hou a shot of prevention, he planned to go back.
Although Marquis Wu'an was reluctant to let his daughter go, he also knew that the weather in this frontier was bitterly cold and his daughter would suffer here.
So she sent Li Ningyun off with red eyes.
Li Ningyun was a little amused: "Dad, it's not that serious, it's not that serious. Hurry up and collect your gold beans. They can't turn into pearls, it's such a waste."
Marquis Wu'an: "..."
This naughty kid!
After bidding farewell to Marquis Wu'an, Li Ningyun returned to the heroine's village and reunited with the guards.
But Guo's mother was not awake at this time.
Before leaving, Li Ningyun also told the group of guards that there was no need to give special care to Guo's mother.
She has asked an elderly widow in the village to help take care of Guo's mother.
The guards obeyed the eldest lady's words.
Originally, when Li Ningyun planned to move freely, the guards disagreed. After all, if anything happened to the young lady, how would they explain to their own lord?
Then Li Ningyun took action without saying a word and knocked down the twenty or so guards he brought with him.
Guards: “…”
Well, we are little losers. The lady doesn't need our protection. In comparison, she may need us more.
The guards breathed a sigh of relief when they saw Li Ningyun return: "Miss, you are finally back."
Li Ningyun nodded: "What's going on with those two next door?"
Although the guards didn't understand why the young lady asked them to monitor the young couple across the street, they didn't ask any further questions and instead dutifully followed their instructions. "Miss, besides farming and cooking, they occasionally go up the mountain to chop firewood. And that man seems to have some kung fu skills, but for some reason, he doesn't seem to be able to use them. I once saw him carrying water, and when he lifted the bucket, he didn't control his strength well, and the water directly poured over him."
Li Ningyun nodded. Guo An had lost his memory, and all his actions now were based on instinct.
Or the stimulation from people around you.
For example, daily life.
Because he saw the behavior of people around him, he subconsciously imitated and learned from them.
But so far, he has not come into contact with anyone who knows martial arts.
He didn't know where his strength came from.
Before, it was because he was physically injured.
Violent movements can cause the wound to become irritated.
So he would subconsciously slow down his movements.
Now it’s because of the effect of the recovery pill that Li Ningyun fed him.
Guo An's injuries have completely recovered.
So he stopped restraining his strength, and this happened.
"By the way, Miss, I heard from that woman earlier that a doctor would come this afternoon to remove the gauze from that man's face and check on how his facial injuries are healing."
Li Ningyun perked up when he heard that: "Okay, I understand. You guys go and have a rest. You don't have to keep an eye on me."
"yes."
In the afternoon, Li Ningyun lay on the roof of Yu Chuner's house to watch the show.
Below are Guo An, Yu Chuner, and an elderly doctor.
The old doctor slowly removed the gauze on Guo An's face with his hands.
Yu Chuner said to the old doctor from the same village with a nervous look on her face: "Uncle Guo, please be gentle."
Seeing this, Guo An jokingly said to Yu Chuner, "I'm not nervous at all, why are you nervous?"
For some reason, Guo An's intuition told him that he was still quite good-looking.
He was very confident that his appearance would make the girl in front of him fall in love with him completely.
Yu Chun'er blushed at the teasing: "Who, who is nervous about you? I'm not!"
Guo An jokingly tried to comfort the angry little woman in front of him: "Okay, okay, it's me who's nervous. Our Chun'er isn't nervous."
The old doctor beside him frowned.
If he remembered correctly, the daughter of the old Yu family was not engaged yet, right?
Now she is flirting with a stranger so unscrupulously in front of me, a stranger. Does she still want to keep this reputation?
Doesn’t the Yu family care?
The old doctor couldn't bear it any longer and said politely, "Chun'er, why don't you go out and wait?"
Yu Chun'er didn't understand what the old doctor meant but said, "It's okay, Uncle Guo. I can't calm down if I wait outside. I'll stay here. I can feel more at ease."
The old doctor: “…”
Guo An chuckled: "Don't be nervous, I can feel it in my own body. I feel that my face has recovered."
"Yeah." Yu Chun'er agreed, but her fists clenched involuntarily.
Old Doctor: ...
The old doctor stopped trying to persuade her. She was not his granddaughter, so he couldn't do much about it.
So as not to annoy people by talking too much.
The moment the gauze was removed.
Yu Chun'er stood there in a daze.
He looked at Guo An with disbelief.
Guo An thought Yu Chuner was impressed by his handsome appearance.
So he raised his eyebrows and looked at Yu Chun'er with that extremely greasy look: "Woman, are you satisfied with what you see?"
Yu Chuner: "..."
Yu Chuner really couldn't accept that she had been flirting with such an ugly person for so many days.
The chin is so pointed that it can be used as a nail, the eyes are so narrow that they are disgusting, and the nose is so sunken that it is almost non-existent.
All of this was hitting Yu Chuner's fragile heart.
What's going on?
Why is he so ugly??
When I rescued him, judging from the fabric he was wearing, I knew he must be a rich man.
But now, not only has the rich man lost his memory, but he also looks like such a wretched man?
Yu Chuner suffered a great blow physically and mentally.
She couldn't even help but dry heave.
"vomit……"
Seeing this, Guo An hurried over and wanted to support Yu Chun'er: "Chun'er, what's wrong with you? Are you feeling uncomfortable?"
But before he could touch Yu Chun'er, he was pushed away by her. Then Yu Chun'er said sternly: "Don't touch me! Stay away from me!"
Guo An was puzzled: "Chun'er, what's wrong with you? I am a piece of wood, your wood."
Yu Chun'er couldn't stand it anymore, so she ran out immediately.
Guo An looked at Yu Chun'er who ran out, then looked at the old doctor beside him, and said with grievance: "Uncle Guo, what happened to Chun'er?"
Old Doctor: ...
Don't look at me like that, I'm scared too...
"I don't know either. Your face has recovered. I'll leave first."
After the old doctor finished speaking, he took his bamboo medicine box and left without looking back.
The speed was as if there was a ghost chasing after him.
Guo An frowned in confusion.
He reached out and touched his face: "What's wrong?"
Then he went to the water tank, filled a basin with clean water, and then looked into the water.
The moment he saw his reflection in the water, Guo An's heart collapsed: "What the hell is this?!"
Guo An really couldn't accept his own appearance.
Although he lost his memory, he subconsciously felt that he shouldn't look like this.
Li Ningyun hid on the roof and watched the series of events unfolding below, almost laughing like crazy.
Especially the words that came out of Guo An's mouth when he saw his reflection in the water.
She couldn't help herself and quickly returned to her room, laughing out loud.
The guards outside were all a little puzzled: Did the young lady see some funny joke when she went out?
Little did they know that their young lady with a bad taste had turned the male protagonist of this dimension into an ugly monster.
After watching the excitement, Li Ningyun rushed to the capital with a group of guards.
Li Ningyun did not take Guo Wangshi back.
Instead, he used the special skills he had acquired from other worlds to create a paper man that looked like Guo Wangshi.
Brought it back to the capital.
On the way back, Li Ningyun discovered a very interesting person.
Li Ningyun became interested and walked over to his stall.
The man had a square face and looked very decent.
With his silver beard and hair, and the Taoist robe he was wearing, he looked even more like an immortal.
This man saw Li Ningyun standing in front of the stall, looked her up and down, smiled, stroked his beard and then said slowly: "Madam, what can I do for you?"
Li Ningyun was very interested: "Sir, you are right, but I have a favor to ask."
The middle-aged man looked at Li Ningyun with a smile, his demeanor truly immortal. "Madam, please speak."
Li Ningyun: "My mother-in-law is seriously ill. I want to find a medicine to relieve her pain. Does sir have any idea?"
"Madam, you are truly kind. However, birth, old age, sickness, and death are all determined by fate. Judging from your face, your mother is destined to have this calamity. However, as long as you can get through it, you will naturally live a rich and stable life in the future."
Li Ningyun smiled: "What if we can't get across?"
The middle-aged man seemed to be surprised by Li Ningyun's question. He was stunned for a moment and subconsciously put his hands together and said, "Amitabha."
Li Ningyun suppressed a smile and said, "Sir, you are chanting the Buddha's name."
The middle-aged man was stunned and put down his clasped hands awkwardly.
I don’t know how to ease the awkward atmosphere.
Li Ningyun smiled and changed the subject, "What's your name, sir?"
Middle-aged man: "My surname is Wang, and my given name is He."
Li Ningyun nodded and said, "Mr. Wang, I have a favor to ask. I hope you can go to the capital with me. This is the deposit. I will give you a generous gift later."
Li Ningyun took out a silver note worth one hundred taels as he spoke.
Wang He was a little hesitant at first, but after glancing at the amount on the banknote that Li Ningyun handed over, he nodded quickly: "Madam, just let me know if you have any instructions."
