An Qingran did not ask them to stand up immediately. She ignored Lou Wanyue's surprised look and continued, "This is Dongfang Run's wife, the daughter of Prime Minister Lou. This is his son, who has now been named the Crown Prince..."
Such an identity, whoever reveals it, will not scare the common people. I wish all the candidates good luck in the exam!
Sweat broke out on Mr. Zhong's face. "My daughter's words and actions just now were offensive. Please don't blame her, Madam. If you do, blame me for not disciplining her properly..."
"If I were to blame, I wouldn't have waited until now. In fact, I could have concealed my true identity, but this is unfair to Dongfang Run. He lost his memory in order to save me, so I owe him something. Now that I have found him, it is time for me to repay him. No matter what, we are going to take him back to Beijing. I have told you the truth, old man. I hope you can persuade Zhong Min'er. If she wants to continue to be Dongfang Run's wife, she must also return to Beijing with us. Do you understand?"
"I understand, I understand. I understand."
"Stand up and take a seat." An Qingran rarely showed off her power. Lou Wanyue looked at her and her expression relaxed. She had never expected An Qingran to act this way. She couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. She only heard An Qingran continue, "Tomorrow, we will pick up Dongfang Run and Zhong Min'er. I think you still need time to pack your luggage, so we will leave first and won't bother you anymore."
An Qingran finished speaking. Lou Wanyue didn't know what she meant. After leaving the Zhong Mansion, An Qingran said, "Didn't you see that? Dongfang Run doesn't remember us at all now. We need to give him a night to digest these things. Let's pick him up tomorrow."
"But what if he doesn't want to go back to Beijing with us? Do we still have to use force?"
"With Master Zhong here, he can't do that." An Qingran smiled, "Because I think if we stay any longer, Zhong Min'er will do something. We don't have time to watch the show with her, and it's not easy to punish her, so let them spend their time on their own. If she still doesn't learn practical skills, don't blame us."
"Everything is fine, but I'm just afraid that Dongfang Run won't stand on our side at that time..." Lou Wanyue didn't know why, but she felt less sad and a little uneasy. Before, she was still thinking about all the things she couldn't accept, but now that she saw them, she was afraid that he would abandon her and her son again.
Will he?
"Dongfang Run has no memories of the past. He is just an ordinary person. Can't you see that? He wants to hug Xin'er very much. If Zhong Min'er hadn't been beside him, you would have recognized each other long ago. But I still think that it is better for us to let him remember everything by himself than to tell him everything. So, bring him back to Beijing first. Don't worry about when his memory will recover. It is very likely that after returning to the Prince Shou's Mansion, he will love Zhong Min'er even more. You have to let it go." An Qingran sighed.
She never thought that one day she would have to persuade her cousin about this matter.
With Dongfang Run's personality, he would only marry one wife.
Lou Wanyue felt a little relieved after hearing this.
The two returned to the inn, planning to spend the night there.
Dinner is just over.
Dongfang Run asked for a meeting.
An Qingran and Lou Wanyue didn't expect this.
The two couldn't help but feel uneasy.
When Dongfang Run came in, he looked at them without greeting them, which made An Qingran feel a little relieved: "Dongfang Run, you are finally here."
"I came to see you to clarify some things." Dongfang Run didn't have much expression on his face, he just said calmly.
It seems that even if a person loses his memory, his original personality does not change much.
Lou Wanyue held the armrests of the chair tightly, and her body was shaking because of the force.
Dongfang Run looked at Lou Wanyue and was somewhat moved. He knew that the relationship between him and the haggard woman in front of him must be unusual. In other words, he believed what they said, that she was his wife.
But why is there no trace of her in my mind?
But why do I feel so sad about this queen?
He calmed down, sat down, and looked at Lou Wanyue: "You are my wife? And I am a chosen criminal, so, I want to ask, where are the Shou Wang and his wife now?"
When Lou Wanyue heard him ask her this, she immediately stood up and said, "The emperor has shown mercy and forgiven all my sins, but I am not allowed to return to the capital for life. My parents are in good health now, and my father is also a teacher. My mother is just worried every day because she has no news from you..."
At this point, she couldn't continue, and tears fell. Dongfang Run's expression didn't change much: "So you said I am Dongfang Run, besides the same appearance, do you have other evidence? For example, do you know the marks on my body? We are husband and wife, you should know, right?"
Lou Wanyue was stunned when she heard this. They were indeed husband and wife, but how could they be the same as other couples?
They slept together for several nights, all because of the effect of the drugs. Now she doesn’t know if he has any affection for her at all. If he recovers his memory, he might not treat her as well as he treats Zhong Min'er.
Yes, the tenderness in my memory was all because I was pregnant and he took good care of me.
Seeing Lou Wanyue in a daze, An Qingran was also worried about her. It was reasonable for Dongfang Run to ask this question. For a person with amnesia, even a little bit of evidence would make him feel safer.
If no evidence can be produced, we can only go and pick up Prince Shou and his wife as well as Dongfang Ruoxue.
Princess Shou must have evidence, and besides, mother and son are connected by heart, so maybe he can recover his memory directly.
Finally, Lou Wanyue spoke softly: "There is a cinnabar mole the size of a grain of rice under your left shoulder."
Hearing this, Dongfang Run nodded: "It seems that you are really my wife..."
When he said this, he was no longer calm and stood up: "Can I see the child?"
Lou Wanyue nodded quickly, turned around and went into the house, and took out Xin'er who was sleeping soundly. Xin'er frowned and pouted because she was disturbed. Just as she was about to cry, she suddenly looked at Dongfang Run. He was also stunned and blinked his eyes: "Daddy?"
"Hey." Dongfang Run answered and took the child. Dongfang Xin hugged Dongfang Run's neck and refused to let go. The father and son are truly connected.
Lou Wanyue was surprised and happy, just crying. Dongfang Run stretched out his other arm, wanting to hold her waist, but for some reason, his arm quickly dropped down and he did not hug her.
Lou Wanyue, who was crying with joy, did not see this scene, but An Qingran, who was watching it clearly, sighed secretly. It seemed that her cousin still had a long way to go, and it might not be easy.
Dongfang Xin's attachment to Dongfang Run was touching, and Dongfang Run's expression was just as sad: "What's your name?"
"Xin'er."
"Okay, Xin'er, tell me, are you usually... well-behaved?" Dongfang Run asked gently, but there was a moment of sobbing in his voice, which was still heard by An Qingran.
She couldn't help but smile.
Xin'er answered in a baby voice, but An Qingran didn't hear clearly. However, Dongfang Run smiled. He hugged Xin'er and suddenly turned to look at An Qingran: "Queen..."
An Qingran waited for him to ask.
He seemed to have no idea what to say, and after a while he said, "Tomorrow, when do we set off?"
"You decide." An Qingran had a smile on her face.
"Is Chenshi available?"
"Of course... Zhong Min'er, are you okay now?" An Qingran asked.
Dongfang Run was embarrassed for a moment when talking about Zhong Heer. He glanced at Lou Wanyue and said, "She is fine. She is going to go back to Beijing with us... I remember everything that happened during this period. It was not her fault. I was confused."
Like explaining.
Lou Wanyue nodded slightly upon hearing this: "As long as you are alive, it's fine. It doesn't matter what happens. I don't know how happy my parents are."
"Yeah." Dongfang Run hummed calmly and then looked at An Qingran, "Can I go visit my parents?"
"Of course you can, but you have to return to the capital first. The Prince Shou's Mansion has been cleaned up and is waiting for you to return."
An Qingran smiled.
Dongfang Run handed Xin'er to Lou Wanyue: "Then I will go back and pack my luggage now..."
Unexpectedly, Xin'er didn't let go, but just held his arm and looked at him and smiled, as if she thought her father was playing with him.
Finally, Lou Wanyue cruelly tore off the child's hand, and Dongfang Run left amid Xin'er's crying.
Xin'er cried for a long time before she calmed down. No one knew what Lou Wanyue was thinking and she remained very quiet.
An Qingran didn't say anything either.
The next day.
The carriage stopped in front of the Zhong Mansion.
Mr. and Mrs. Zhong were waiting outside early in the morning, with tear marks on their faces, but they dared not show their sorrow. They forced themselves to smile and busy themselves with moving things into the car. Zhong Min'er, however, kept crying. She cried every time she saw something. All the things were moved into the car, many of which were useless, such as the pillow and the stool. Dongfang Run stood aside, frowning slightly. There was nothing he could do.
He has become accustomed to Zhong Run's identity and will not change it in a short time.
It was not until An Qingran and the others arrived that Zhong Miner reluctantly knelt on the ground with the others. An Qingran certainly would not let her kneel, as she was pregnant. She looked at the things in the carriages and smiled, "You don't have to bring these things."
"Your Majesty, I'm used to these things. If I go back to Prince Shou's Mansion and they aren't available, I'll have to buy them now." Zhong Min'er felt that everything she brought with her were treasures. The stool was made of mahogany and the pillow was made of jade, but she just didn't want to say it.
Shouwang Mansion, the residence of a criminal, what can there be?
In the past, she didn't know how she suffered. She had heard people say before that it was not so easy to pardon a person who had committed a crime. All the servants in the house would be confiscated, and not even a blade of grass would be left.
The more she thought about it, the more aggrieved she felt. How could she have imagined that the person she saved was the Prince of Shou? If she had known this, she would never have married him so easily.
Moreover, I came here originally to find a son-in-law, and now I have to go to the capital. My sister is not married yet, and she is only fourteen or fifteen years old. If I leave, how can she take on the responsibility of taking care of our parents?
The more she thought about it, the sadder she became.
The tears couldn't stop flowing again.
A pink-dressed girl slowly walked out of the yard. She stuffed a package into Zhong Miner's arms and said, "Sister, although the capital is not far away, we don't know when we can meet again. This is Ling'er's own savings, as well as some jewelry and new clothes. Sister, you can use it to get by."
Zhong Min'er didn't want to accept it, but Zhong Ling'er insisted: "Sister, my parents and I are doing well at home, and we have so many businesses at home. When you go back..."
She glanced at Dongfang Run, Lou Wanyue and the others, and didn't say the following words.
In fact, Zhong Min'er had cried all night yesterday. Although she knew that Dongfang Run was the former prince, he was a criminal who had just been pardoned by the emperor. What could he leave behind? She had a life of luxury at home, and she didn't know what kind of suffering she would endure if she passed away. Moreover, she had a wife whose memory had not yet recovered. She didn't know if his wife would deal with her.
Moreover, the queen and that woman were in the same camp. She was just a merchant's daughter, with no power or influence, but she had money, and she believed that the silver and silk she brought with her would definitely be of use.
Lou Wanyue stood there with a unhappy look on her face. Even though she was a co-wife, she still entered the palace first. Now, she was completely ignored by her. If it weren't for her good family education, she really couldn't help it.
"My daughter, it's okay. If you need anything, your parents will send you there. It's not far, just a day's journey..." After all, Old Master Zhong has seen the world. How could he let his daughter go on making a fuss like this? Not to mention the crowd of onlookers, they wouldn't care anyway. Now, she is giving the prime minister's daughter a hard time. After she gets married, will they treat her well?
For example, she is pregnant now, but the other person's son is already so big. No matter from which aspect, she should be more cautious.
Zhong Miner looked at everyone, then looked at Dongfang Run: "I'm not feeling well, I want to ride in a carriage with you."
"Daddy." Dongfang Xin opened his little hands towards Dongfang Run, looking forward to it.
Dongfang Run was silent.
But he finally walked over and held Dongfang Hongxin in his arms. Dongfang Xin hugged his neck with great care, drooling from laughing. He turned around and looked at Lou Wanyue: "Mother..."
His eyes were full of contentment and boasting.
Lou Wanyue was about to approach, but she saw Zhong Min'er coming up, holding her waist and approaching, she cried out, and pulled Dongfang Run's arm: "Husband, my stomach hurts a little."
Dongfang Run was shocked when he heard this: "What's wrong? Why did it start to hurt? Didn't the doctor say it was fine last night?"
After he asked a series of questions, Lou Wanyue, who was standing beside him, showed a trace of sadness and forbearance in her eyes. She took Dongfang Xin. When Dongfang Run handed the child to her, there was a little apology in her eyes. Lou Wanyue just smiled at him gently: "She is pregnant now, so don't be careless."
The Zhong couple also came forward and immediately asked someone to call a doctor. At the same time, they apologized to An Qingran who was sitting in the carriage and made various apologies. How could an ordinary person get to see the queen?
They are very blessed people.
An Qingran didn't bother with them, but simply ordered someone to drive the carriage to the post station ahead to wait for them.
