Chapter 214 She Forgot About You

After Chu Yu returned to Beijing, Zhao Zhuoxi arranged for her to examine Jiang Jiu.

This day was supposed to be the day Jiang Jiu started learning palace rules.

Unexpectedly, without waiting for Jiang Jiu's request, Zhao Zhuoxi let her rest for another three days.

Jiang Jiu couldn't get what he wanted, and he was really stuck in the house and couldn't get out.

"Princess, this room is the warmest in the palace in winter. It is said that the whole room is covered with peppercorns to keep it warm. It is specially used for the queen to live in during the winter. That's why it is called the Pepper Room."

Jiang Jiu felt a little bored staying in the room, so Taohua told him all the news, big and small, she had heard since entering the palace.

Jiang Jiu is a modern man, and he knows the origin of the palace as soon as he hears the name.

She knew it on the first day she moved in, because this palace was not only warm, but also closest to the emperor's bedroom.

While cracking melon seeds, a charcoal fire was burning in the house. There was a chilly wind outside, but Jiang Jiu not only did not feel cold, he felt stuffy and opened the window.

Yunshu came in from outside carrying a plate of snacks.

"Princess, I just ran into Eunuch Yiyun. He said that His Majesty has invited the best doctor in Daning to see the princess."

Jiang Jiu raised his eyebrows: "I'm not sick, why do I need to hire so many doctors all day long?"

Yun Shu smiled and explained, "Of course it's to help the princess recover."

"Didn't you hear everyone say that His Majesty canceled the selection for next year, saying that it would be enough to have only one woman, the princess, in the harem."

"If the princess is not in good health, how can she give birth to children for His Majesty?"

Jiang Jiu was shocked: "What? He cancelled next year's talent show? Why?"

Yunshu was delighted that her master had won the emperor's favor, and from now on they would be able to walk around the harem as they pleased.

"Of course it's the beloved princess."

Jiang Jiu thought back to the days since she entered the palace. The emperor was indeed good to her, but it was not to the point of doting.

Besides, the emperor is unlucky in marrying wives, so she doesn’t want to marry him for fear that she will die soon.

"The emperor's favor comes a little inexplicably. Every time I feel that he looks at me, he is always looking at someone else through my eyes."

Jiang Jiu is not a fool, she can feel Zhao Zhuoxi's deep affection.

But this affection is not for her.

Therefore, Jiang Jiu remained sober and wanted to leave the palace from beginning to end.

It's just that during this period of time, she always had some messy dreams, which hindered her from leaving.

Sure enough, not long after, Master Yiyun came in person, bringing a young woman with him.

"Princess, this is the doctor His Majesty has specially invited for you."

As soon as Jiang Jiu saw the woman in front of her, she felt familiar, but what attracted her more was her slightly bulging belly.

"Are you pregnant? You are being dragged here by the Emperor to see me even though you are pregnant. It's really hard work for you. Come on, sit down and talk."

Chu Yu raised her eyebrows. The tone of this girl's voice was indeed very similar to Jiang Jiu's.

She sat opposite Jiang Jiu and asked Jiang Jiu to stretch out his arm.

After taking the patient's pulse carefully, I came to the same conclusion as Dr. Zhang Yu.

It is said that Jiang Jiu suffers from insomnia and nightmares, and is weak, so he needs to rest.

Jiang Jiu likes to rest quietly, and pouted, "How long will it take? Maybe tomorrow, His Majesty will send a governess to teach me the rules."

Chu Yu raised her eyebrows: "The princess is already like this, what rules are there to teach her? Besides, the princess is the future queen, your rules are the rules, who can teach who..."

Jiang Jiu was a little embarrassed: "That's what you said, but I don't want to be the queen, and I don't want to marry the emperor..."

Chu Yu was a little surprised: "Why? Isn't it good to marry the emperor? You are the queen who rules the country, an honor that many women can't even hope for."

Jiang Jiu pursed his lips and said, "The emperor is very good, a nice person, very handsome, good at martial arts, and the emperor is supreme, but he is the emperor, and there are countless beauties in the harem. I don't want to force a man with so many women."

I have the same idea as her.

Chu Yu added: "But the emperor cancelled the beauty pageant yesterday, saying that from now on there will only be one princess in the harem..."

Jiang Jiu was in a dilemma: "That's why I feel even more guilty. If he was an ordinary man, I might consider it, but he is the emperor after all, and he gave up his harem for me. Isn't that putting me on the grill?"

"Your Majesty, having children is a matter of state and very important. If I can't have one or if something unexpected happens, all the ministers will blame me. I can't handle it."

It is a good thing to have three thousand favors on one body.

But the best things can turn into bad things.

Who knows, one day he might become a demon that brings disaster to the country and the people.

Go and see Concubine Yang, go and see Su Daji.

Which one of them is not favored by the emperor?

Chu Yu understood her predicament but was powerless to do anything, so he patted her hands.

"You are weak and need to recuperate. I will give you acupuncture at noon when the Yang energy is at its strongest. Now I will report to His Majesty and then prescribe medicine for you..."

I don’t know how Chu Yu gave Jiang Jiu the acupuncture. As soon as she left, Jiang Jiu fell sleepy again.

After Chu Yu showed it to Jiang Jiu, she went straight back to Yu's study.

"Miss Chuyu, how is she? Is she okay?"

As soon as Zhao Zhuoxi saw her come in, he put down the memorial.

Chu Yu pondered for a moment and said, "Your Majesty, it could be her. She has also been resurrected through a corpse, but she has no memory of her past, and her temper and personality are much more lively than before..."

There was a hint of sadness in Zhao Zhuoxi's eyes.

"It's all my fault. I was the one who caused her to be poisoned by the strange poison from the Western Regions. She lost her memory and forgot about me."

"Miss Chuyu, can it still be cured?"

Chu Yu shook her head gently: "The soul that has been resurrected from a corpse is unstable and has caused great damage to the body. If she is not properly taken care of, she may not live past the age of 30. If this is the result your majesty wants, I can use acupuncture to awaken her memory..."

"What? Can't live past 30? How is that possible?" Zhao Zhuoxi never thought that recovering his memory would cause such great damage to his body.

After thinking hard for a moment, Zhao Zhuoxi made a decision.

"Then don't awaken her memory. I hope she can live a long life and grow old with me."

Chu Yu asked again: "Even if she no longer likes Your Majesty from now on, does it matter?"

Zhao Zhuoxi felt distressed, but he couldn't just watch Jiang Jiu have health problems.

"Is there any other solution?"

Chu Yu shook her head: "Her original body had suffered too much of a blow, and was seized because she couldn't bear it for a while. Her soul was unstable and her body was not able to bear it. This is the side effect of hating to leave. Hate to leave, hate to leave. If you don't say goodbye to the past, how can you start over?"

Zhao Zhuoxi felt heartbroken when he thought of the loving days he had spent with Jiang Jiu.

"What can I do to make her love me like before?"

Chu Yu sighed. In fact, she was not optimistic about Zhao Zhuoxi at first. After all, he was a member of the royal family, and he was cruel and ruthless, and regarded human life as worthless.

I didn't expect Zhao Zhuoxi to be so affectionate.

"If Your Majesty treats her with sincerity, perhaps Your Majesty can make her fall in love with you again."

Fall in love with him again...

Just as Zhao Zhuoxi was thinking about it, suddenly, an urgent report came from the Ministry of War.

"Report, Your Majesty, urgent news from 800 miles away, Nanli country sent 300,000 troops to attack our Daning..."
