Xuanyuan Zhan instinctively raised his hand to fight, but when he saw the face of the person on the bed in a second, he suddenly withdrew his attack: "General!"
Xuanyuan Zhan looked at Su Renzhong with surprise, no longer wanting to fight him, but Su Renzhong's offensive did not stop at all: "I am not the Great General, you have mistaken me for someone else."
Looking at Su Renzhong, who was a complete stranger to him, Xuanyuan Zhan became even more puzzled: "You really don't recognize me? I am Xuanyuan Zhan, the Holy King of Eastern Chu, and also your son-in-law."
Logically, even if he hadn't paid attention to him before, he should have heard of his name. Although he grew up in Xiangnan, Bai Fuya had always been active in the capital. Anyone living in the capital should know him.
Moreover, Su Renzhong is a general; he couldn't possibly be unaware of these royal affairs, and he should at least recognize him.
But why does he still seem like a stranger to him even though he has introduced himself twice?
Su Renzhong's attacks showed no signs of abating. He stared at Xuan Yuanzhan for two seconds, then snorted, "I'm not even married yet, so where would I get a daughter, let alone a son-in-law!"
What daughter, what son-in-law? Now even this little thief can fool him!
However, this little thief's martial arts skills are quite impressive. He could tell that the thief wasn't using his full strength against him, and might even have only used 20% of his power. But even that 20% was enough for him to handle.
He considered himself to be quite skilled in martial arts; many assassins and bodyguards had tried to kill him before, but none of them were a match for him. However, compared to the petty thief before him, his martial arts seemed to be far inferior.
This made him suspicious of the thief's purpose in coming here. It seemed that he was not here to assassinate him, otherwise he would not have used only 20% of his strength to deal with him. Was he just here to deceive him? But what was his purpose?
Just as Su Renzhong was wondering, Xuan Yuanzhan no longer wanted to fight him. He used three-tenths of his strength and directly knocked Su Renzhong back a few steps.
Su Renzhong was almost injured internally by the shock. He staggered several steps before he managed to regain his balance and looked at Xuan Yuanzhan in shock.
Such formidable skill! Who is this little thief? He's so young, yet he possesses such power!
"To be honest, I had no intention of fighting you. I only used three-tenths of my strength just now, so if we were to really fight, you would be no match for me at all," Xuan Yuanzhan kindly explained.
This once again greatly surprised Su Renzhong.
He only used three-tenths of his strength just now. If he had used his full strength, killing him would have been a piece of cake.
Moreover, he could tell that even if he only used three-tenths of his strength, he was still concentrating all the force on himself; otherwise, even using only three-tenths of his strength would have resulted in serious injury.
It's clear that he really didn't want to hurt him!
Su Renzhong squinted and looked Xuan Yuanzhan up and down: "Who exactly are you?"
This young man is skilled in martial arts, good-looking, and tall enough. It's a pity he doesn't have a daughter, otherwise it wouldn't be impossible to take him as a son-in-law!
If Xuanyuan Zhan knew that Su Renzhong had accepted him so quickly, he would probably be very happy. Unfortunately, he couldn't hear Su Renzhong's true feelings.
Xuanyuan Zhan looked at Su Renzhong's unfamiliar gaze and was also very puzzled.
He had seen General Su before; this appearance and physique were clearly those of General Su. Moreover, they had already verified through various channels that General Su was a member of the Northern Wei royal family, so there was no doubt that the person in the Northern Wei palace at this moment was General Su.
But why doesn't he recognize him anymore?
It doesn't matter if I don't know him, the most important thing is that he said he has never been married and has no daughter, which is too strange!
As if remembering something, Xuanyuan Zhan took out the love charm that Duanmu Junyu had given him from his pocket: "Do you still remember this?"
“This is…” Su Renzhong immediately took the jade pendant, examined it carefully, and then took off the jade pendant from his own neck. The two jade pendants could be set together perfectly to become the same jade pendant.
"Your Highness?" Just as Su Renzhong was surprised that Xuanyuan Zhan had a love charm made of the exact same material as his, a guard knocked on the door: "Are you alright?"
Xuanyuan Zhan lowered his voice and said, "If you want to know where this love pendant came from, or if you have any doubts about your current situation, then please don't expose me."
Su Renzhong narrowed his eyes again and said in a loud voice, "It's nothing. I'll get up and have a glass of water. You may leave."
"Yes." The guard outside seemed relieved and immediately withdrew.
Xuan Yuanzhan also breathed a sigh of relief; it seemed there was still much to talk about.
Su Renzhong tilted his head towards Xuan Yuanzhan: "Sit down and let's talk."
The two sat down at the table together, and Su Renzhong poured Xuan Yuanzhan a glass of water: "It's not convenient to brew new tea now, so please make do with this overnight tea."
Xuan Yuanzhan stared at the leftover tea that Su Renzhong handed him, and for some reason felt that he was deliberately retaliating against the slap he had just received.
"Ahem~" Xuan Yuanzhan didn't dare to drink the overnight tea after all. He coughed and looked at Su Renzhong, saying, "Let's talk business."
Before Su Renzhong could speak, Xuan Yuanzhan lowered his voice and said, "This love charm was given to you by your wife. It should be a token between you and her. You should recognize this love charm, right?"
Xuan Yuanzhan's words shocked Su Renzhong once again.
His wife?
Why doesn't he have any recollection of it?
But this love pendant is clearly made of the same material as the love pendant around his neck, and the size is just right to make a love pendant together.
These are indeed the same jade pendants made from the same piece of jade, but why does he have no recollection of having a wife?
He just said he has a daughter?
Looking at Su Renzhong's confused expression, Xuan Yuanzhan seemed to realize something and was suddenly startled: "You...you wouldn't have lost your memory, would you?"
Otherwise, how could he not recognize this jade pendant?
Even if he doesn't recognize him, he should at least remember his wife and children, right? But judging from his appearance, he seems to have no recollection of anything.
"Amnesia?" Su Renzhong frowned. He really didn't remember what had happened before. Did he have amnesia?
Seeing his condition, Xuan Yuanzhan became anxious: "It seems you really have lost your memory! But Ning'er knows medicine. Come with me, I will take you to see your wife and your two children, they will help you regain your memory."
Previously, her mother's amnesia was cured by her master, so Ning'er should be able to cure the general's amnesia as well.
This couple has really had a tough time; they take turns claiming to have amnesia!
Xuan Yuanzhan's words shocked Su Renzhong once again.
The wife and her two children?
So, does that mean he not only has a wife and daughter, but also a son?
But is what this kid is saying true?
Xuanyuan Zhan seemed to sense his doubt and stood up, saying, "Once you come with me to see them, you will understand that what I said is true!"
