Since regaining his memories, Qi Guze has never known why he suddenly became the national advisor of the martial arts kingdom.
He simply discovered that one day he was sitting in the position of the Imperial Advisor, with a great many people worshipping him.
Now, so much time has passed, and he still hasn't found the reason.
Now they're imprisoned again, and the Imperial Preceptor Tower has been cut off from all communication with the outside world. They don't even know if their own people will be able to find their way here.
Why did the emperor of Wulin Kingdom imprison him?
Where did the original imperial advisor go?
Just as Qi Guze was pondering these things, he suddenly smelled a particularly strong fragrance.
The scent was very peculiar; he felt as if he had smelled it somewhere before.
He wanted to keep his mind clear and held his breath to avoid smelling the fragrances.
But the fragrance penetrated his skin and entered his bloodstream, causing him to lose consciousness instantly.
After he collapsed to the ground, a man in white robes suddenly emerged from the curtain behind him.
The man in white robes was also wearing the same mask as Qi Guze.
"Qi Guze, fate chose you, and you should bear all of this."
“You absolutely must not let yourself get caught up in romantic love. I didn’t give you enough medication before, which is why you regained your memories.”
"Now I will completely destroy your memories. From now on, you will only be the national advisor of the Wulin Kingdom."
"From now on, you will be the one to write all of this."
"This is your mission!"
The Imperial Advisor took out a medicine bottle from his sleeve and stuffed all the pills inside into Qi Guze's mouth.
Qi Guze was forced to swallow the pill, and his body suddenly became hot and feverish.
"ah--!"
Even while unconscious, he screamed in agony.
However, no one around them approached this area; instead, they remained on the perimeter of the Imperial Preceptor's Tower, and no one noticed what was happening here.
The Imperial Advisor watched Qi Guze's pained state with a calm and unwavering gaze. He remained by his side for a long time, chanting incantations that seemed to penetrate Qi Guze's mind like a spell.
The Imperial Advisor only turned and left after Qi Guze's condition stabilized.
His figure vanished without a trace, disappearing near the Imperial Preceptor's Tower in no time.
After a long while, Qi Guze suddenly woke up.
His mind went completely blank; he had no idea what had happened.
All information about his identity and Xu Yuehuai vanished at once.
"Who am I? Why am I here?"
Just as he was feeling particularly puzzled, he suddenly noticed a booklet on the table next to him.
That booklet recounted some of the deeds of the martial arts kingdom's national teacher, as well as many of the missions he was required to undertake.
After seeing this content, a long string of memories suddenly popped into his mind.
That memory was incredibly vast, crashing into his mind and expanding rapidly, as if countless images were being decompressed.
When he saw those memories appearing in his mind, they always felt particularly unfamiliar.
But all these memories seem to be as if he personally experienced them, as if everything was seen from a first-person perspective.
After a long time, everything in Qi Guze's mind finally calmed down, and he realized his identity—the Grand Preceptor of the Martial Arts Kingdom.
His eyes were expressionless, as if he had become a completely different person...
Meanwhile, inside the royal residence in the capital, Xu Yuehuai waited anxiously for news from Qi Guze.
But after waiting for several days, he still didn't come back.
"Why hasn't the prince returned yet? No, I must go to the palace to see what's wrong with him."
Xu Yuehua wanted to get into the palace as soon as possible to check on Qi Guze's condition.
But Anan stopped her, saying, "Sister Xu, you should just wait here. There's no news of the prince now; who knows what the emperor of Wulin Kingdom might have done to him?"
"If you were to go there yourself, it might be dangerous."
Xu Yuehuai said, "But I can't just abandon the prince."
"Let Pei Xuan and the others handle this. Sister Xu, you just wait here."
Worried that Xu Yuehuai might act impulsively, Anan went to instruct Pei Xuan and the others on their actions, while simultaneously calling Zhou Wan over to accompany Xu Yuehuai.
Zhou Wan has been well taken care of these days, living a comfortable life with Tie Xiong, and has become much more comfortable.
Tie Xiong's injuries have stabilized, and if a miraculous medicine to heal his wounds can be found, he might be able to recover to his former state.
Their children have grown up a lot and can walk now. Whenever they see Xu Yuehuai, they keep calling out "Auntie, Auntie" incessantly.
Even though Zhou Wan and the others kept correcting him to call her "Grandma," he still couldn't get it right, so Xu Yuehuai and the others just went along with the little guy.
Now that Zhou Wan has come to keep Xu Yuehuai company, she sees that Xu Yuehuai looks terrible and feels very sad.
"Mother, even if you're worried about the Prince, you must take good care of yourself."
"If the prince saw you like this, he would definitely be very worried about you."
"Let's eat properly and rest properly, okay?"
Xu Yuehuai sighed.
"Actually, I also want to get a good rest, but I just can't seem to do it."
"I think about the prince all the time, wondering if he has encountered any danger, or if he is trapped somewhere now?"
"But they won't let me out at all."
"Even when I wanted to inquire about the prince, they had to guard me."
"A-Wan, why don't you help me?"
Zhou Wan bit her lip, unsure of what to do next.
She was also very worried about Tie Xiong's whereabouts at the time, and she deeply understood Xu Yuehuai.
“Mother, that’s the royal palace of the Wulin Kingdom.”
"If you sneak in alone, you might encounter danger."
Xu Yuehuai held her hand and looked intently into her eyes. "My martial arts skills are already quite advanced. It's just that lowly soldiers and generals can't detect me at all."
"Please promise your mother and help her this time."
"Mother will definitely come back safely."
Seeing Xu Yuehuai's pleading gaze, Zhou Wan's resolve began to waver.
"I'm begging you, please switch places with me and let me out for a bit."
"Mother, please don't say that. I'll help you."
Upon hearing this, Xu Yuehuai smiled and then exchanged clothes with her, dressing up as her.
After doing all this, Zhou Wan suddenly felt a little regretful, worried that Xu Yuehuai would take the risk.
