After confirming that Chu Huaizhi not only had no grudge against her, but actually cared about her life, Jiang Li instantly became bolder and raised her hand to grab his sleeve when he was about to leave.
Chu Huaizhi's gaze fell on the hand that was grabbing his sleeve.
That hand was like white jade, and the slender and delicate fingers formed a sharp contrast with the jet-black sleeves. As she raised her hand, the sleeve of her inner garment slid down, revealing a wrist as white as fat.
Jiang Li was a little scared when she met Chu Huaizhi's deep eyes, and hurriedly explained: "That assassin is very vicious, I am afraid he will come to assassinate again."
"As long as Your Majesty doesn't run around alone, with the Shadow Guards here, no one can hurt you."
Chu Huaizhi looked at Jiang Li calmly, and his eyes that seemed to be able to see through everything made Jiang Li feel guilty.
"But I can only feel at ease when my uncle is by my side."
Jiang Li added one more sentence at the end, but Chu Huaizhi still had no expression on his face.
Seeing this, Jiang Li had no choice but to let go of her hand in disappointment, but she did not forget to smooth out the wrinkles on Chu Huaizhi's sleeves that she had caused.
"Uncle, let's go."
Jiang Li left these four words and put her hand into the quilt. She turned around silently, leaving Chu Huaizhi with a lonely back.
Chu Huaizhi took a deep look at the petite and slender figure on the bed, then turned and left.
Hearing no movement behind her, Jiang Li turned her head and looked around, and found that she was the only one left in the huge palace.
Jiang Li breathed a sigh of relief. She had finally sent this evil spirit away! "Xiao Duo, why hasn't the memory of this body been transmitted yet?"
Jiang Li, who had no memory at all, hurriedly called Xiao Duo, fearing that she would be exposed accidentally.
[Host, Oops! There are some minor problems with the system! ]
Xiaoduo's words that something bad was going to happen made Jiang Li's heart tighten instantly.
"What little problem?"
Xiaoduo operated the electronic hand for a while, and finally took back the virtual screen in disappointment.
[Host, the memory of this body has been lost. This small world has to be created by the host himself.]
Jiang Li suddenly sat up from the bed: "What? Lost your memory?"
[That’s right, the original body hit his head when he died, and the system didn’t have time to save his memory…]
Jiang Li: “…”
She played by herself? How could she play without any memory?! [Well, this is a small mistake of the system. As compensation, the host will be given an extra 1,000 points after this small world is completed!]
But now that things have come to this, there is no point in saying anything. I have no choice but to go ahead for the sake of the extra thousand points.
"make a deal."
[Then Xiaoduo will retreat first. The host can summon you at any time if you need anything! ]
After Xiaoduo disappeared from her sea of consciousness, Jiang Li pursed her lips. When she was about to stand up, she suddenly felt a chill under her hands.
Jiang Li subconsciously looked down and saw the medicine left by Chu Huaizhi.
Judging from Chu Huaizhi's reaction just now, he should be on the same front with me. As long as he is not an enemy, it will be fine.
Jiang Li held the porcelain bottle in her hand and looked at it. At this time, a maid came in hurriedly from outside the hall.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, are you all right?"
After hearing the voice, Jiang Li quickly lay down on the bed and turned to look at the person who came.
The visitor was a nanny who looked to be in her forties. The moment she saw Jiang Li, the worry in her eyes almost overflowed.
Since she had no memory of this body, Jiang Li didn't know the identity of the person who came and could only wait and see what happened.
The nanny came straight to the bed and looked at the wound on Jiang Li's forehead with a distressed look on her face.
"It's no longer a big deal."
"Your Majesty, you must never go out alone again. Now that Your Majesty has just ascended the throne, there are so many eyes watching you. If anything happens to Your Majesty, how will I explain it to the Queen?"
The nanny wiped her tears as she spoke. Her whole heart was focused on Jiang Li's wound and she did not notice the inquiry in Jiang Li's eyes.
"Your Majesty, are there any other injuries besides the forehead? Let me take a look!"
As the nanny spoke, she was about to pull Jiang Li's quilt, intending to check if she had any other wounds on her body.
Jiang Li pulled the quilt with a vigilant look on her face, not letting the nanny touch it.
The nanny was stunned, and then she noticed the defensiveness in Jiang Li's eyes: "Your Majesty, what's wrong with you?"
Jiang Li pretended to have a headache and held her forehead: "Who are you?"
The maid was stunned: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, what's wrong with you? How come you don't even recognize this old servant?"
"I hit my head, so I can't remember some things clearly."
"Oh, what should I do? I'll call Doctor Xu over right now!"
The nanny slapped her thigh anxiously and ordered someone to call the imperial physician.
"Wait a moment." Jiang Li quickly grabbed the nanny's sleeve and said, "Don't make my amnesia public, lest someone make a fuss about it."
"Yes, yes, this matter cannot be made public!"
After calming down, the nanny nodded, then looked at Jiang Li: "Now everyone in the palace is eyeing your majesty covetously. Your majesty's amnesia must not be known to anyone. In order to prevent others from noticing anything unusual, this old servant will sort out the current situation for your majesty!"
The nanny got straight to the point and told Jiang Li the current situation in detail.
From the nanny, Jiang Li learned that the nanny in front of her, Zhou, had been serving beside her mother, Empress Zhuang, and was Empress Zhuang's confidant.
The birth dates of Nanny Zhou's eldest sister-in-law and Jiang Li's mother, Empress Dowager Zhuang, were only two days apart. It was Nanny Zhou who brought the baby boy born by her sister-in-law to the palace in advance and saved the lives of Jiang Li and Empress Zhuang.
Now, apart from Jiang Li herself, the only people who know the secret of her female identity are Nanny Zhou and Doctor Xu.
Although the late emperor had three thousand beauties, due to the turmoil in the harem, not many of his descendants survived.
Including Jiang Li, there were only twelve princes and five princesses.
Empress Zhuang had no children, and the position of crown prince had always been vacant. In order to compete for the position, the remaining eleven princes fought fiercely.
In the end, the fight was to the death, with both sides suffering losses.
Only seven princes survived the battle for the throne.
Later, Jiang Li was born as the emperor's legitimate son, but because she was cowardly by nature and not cut out for an emperor, the seven surviving princes did not take her seriously.
Later, plague and cholera were rampant in the Dayan Dynasty. Two of the seven princes died, and five princes were injured, disabled, or sick in the struggle.
Before the previous emperor passed away, Jiang Li was the only intact prince left.
By then, the late emperor had already regretted his decision, but his time was approaching and he could not care less. In order to preserve the throne of the Jiang family, he had to pass it to Jiang Li.
Although the other five princes had physical defects, they were still as arrogant as ever. They could not bear to watch the throne fall into the hands of a coward.
Jiang Li was assassinated this time by the five princes, and the exact identity of the assassins is still under investigation.
After understanding the current situation, Jiang Li had a rough idea in her mind and immediately made an important decision...
