Chapter 52 (Extra): What If the Princess Loses Her Memory
In the ninth year of Yongxi, which was the fourth year after Huiyi married into the Lin family.
The two are as loving as ever.
No, to be precise, it should be said that it is becoming increasingly popular.
At the end of the second year after their marriage, Huiyi gave birth to a robust baby boy, whom Lin Er said looked like he was destined to be a general.
Emperor Yongxi was very fond of this chubby boy and named him Zhan.
The current generation of the Lin family uses the character "Yun" in their name, and the Lin family's nephew is named Lin Yunqi.
This chubby boy was named Lin Yunzhan, and his childhood name was Yinnu.
Lin Er was a rough man, both as a husband and as a father. He often tossed Yin Nu around like a sandbag and would even hang the baby in swaddling clothes on the weapon rack while practicing spear fighting.
They call it starting from childhood.
Huiyi was furious every time.
Although she wasn't very good at taking care of babies, she still knew what was important.
Lin Er was a cunning fellow. Every time he played with the child, he would quickly admit his mistake with a very sincere attitude. After a few more intimate moments at night, Huiyi's anger would subside.
Although it's not played the same way as before, new ways to play have been developed.
For example, to save effort, Yin Nu was suspended in mid-air, making him giggle at Cui Yi Niang for a long time.
After another round of scolding, Lin Er knelt before her for several hours to apologize, which made Huiyi unable to scold him anymore.
After the two bathed, Lin Lanting hugged his wife affectionately and said with emotion, "If this were four years ago, I really wouldn't have dared to imagine that we could be like this."
Huiyi had recovered somewhat and said lazily, "That's true. Back then, I thought you were like a pile of shit, so disgusting!"
Lin Lanting laughed in exasperation, and bit Huiyi's earlobe in annoyance, making Huiyi tense up.
That scoundrel Lin Er has been obsessed with her ever since he first discovered her sensitive spot, and he would sneak up on her every now and then.
As their skin rubbed against each other, someone became aroused again and rolled over onto him.
Soon, a series of intimate sounds filled the brocade tent, making the young maid on night watch blush.
"The princess and the prince consort have such a good relationship!"
With a sigh, the little girl continued her night watch.
But tonight's indulgence has had terrible consequences.
The next morning, a high-pitched scream echoed throughout the Lin residence, followed by a thud, the sound of a heavy object falling to the ground.
The group, who were still dozing off, were suddenly awakened, especially Yu Niang and the others.
The princess hasn't made any such moves for many years.
They heard people calling them from inside, so Yu Niang and the others immediately opened the door and went in.
What appeared to them was both puzzling and comical.
Her princess huddled under the covers on the bed like a young woman who had been harassed by a lecherous man, while her husband, who had just gotten up, was sitting on the floor below.
It was clearly the princess who kicked him.
This scene looks familiar, but it happened several years ago.
"Princess, what's going on?"
As soon as Yu Niang asked the question, the prince consort, rubbing his aching back and still half-asleep, complained, "My dear wife, what's wrong with you? Why are you kicking me for no reason?"
"Did you have a nightmare?"
Otherwise, Lin Lanting really couldn't figure out the reason.
Under everyone's gaze, Huiyi's face turned red and then pale as she said, "Who is your wife? And why are you in my bed? I'm going to tell my father to punish you with death!"
It was a resounding thud, like a boulder hitting everyone and making them see stars.
Birds flew to and fro, and the palace physicians made a series of diagnoses, announcing a fact.
"Princess Chang Le has lost her memory."
She lost her memory at the age of sixteen, around the age of twenty-eight.
That year, neither of them was married, and they were at the point where they were tired of each other.
"Can it be cured completely?"
Lin Lanting was arguably the most anxious, as it concerned his happiness.
The Imperial Physician stroked his white beard and said, "Logically speaking, it should be possible, but when is uncertain."
After seeing the physician off, Lin Lanting looked distressed.
He was about to go inside to take a look, but Huiyi, still in a state of emotional turmoil, scolded him: "Go away, you are not allowed to come in!"
With a wry smile, Lin Lanting simply plopped down on the steps and waited.
He has a day off today, so he has plenty of time.
Inside the house, Huiyi shouted a rebuke, blocking Lin Er from outside, and then got the answer from Yu Niang.
"I've been married to Lin Ercheng for four years?"
"And she had a child?"
"Is the couple very affectionate?"
With each rhetorical question, Huiyi's emotions gradually spiraled out of control.
Her face was a jumble of emotions, a mixture of anger, shame, and embarrassment, leaving Huiyi on the verge of tears.
Biqing gave a heavy "hmm," her serious expression completely dashing Huiyi's hopes.
Biqing is the most honest person; she would never lie.
Everyone says that.
Afterwards, the Lin family came to see her. They were all kind-faced, gentle, and approachable, which made Huiyi feel embarrassed.
But Lin Er was still not allowed to come in.
As the Lin family members entered and exited the house one by one from behind Lin Lanting, he appeared like a joke.
Just then, the wet nurse came over carrying her son who had just woken up.
Huiyi doesn't like to spend a lot of time raising her child, but she still fulfills her duties as a mother every day by playing with her child for a while to strengthen their bond.
Upon seeing her son, Lin Lanting had a sudden inspiration and took the child into the house.
When Huiyi saw that scoundrel Lin Er enter, she glared at him and was about to curse him, but she was interrupted by his words and the little baby in his arms.
"Wife, I really am your husband. Look, this is our son. He looks just like us!"
Indeed, this child combines the best features of both her parents; she is beautiful and fair-skinned, attracting attention wherever she goes.
Huiyi glanced at it and couldn't help but show surprise.
As Lin Er said, the child looked exactly like him and Lin Er.
But it looks strange no matter how you look at it.
A child bearing the blood of both of them means that the two have already...
Thinking of this, Huiyi's cheeks burned instantly.
When she woke up, she found herself transformed from a young, unmarried girl into the wife of that scoundrel Lin Er, and even had a child with him.
How absurd!
But the facts were right in front of her, leaving her no choice but to believe them.
Avoiding Lin Er's burning gaze, Huiyi's face turned pale, and she didn't know what to do for a moment.
But when she met Lin Er's pitiful gaze, she inexplicably softened.
"Though I don't know why I am like this, I now know everything, you..."
"So you acknowledge me?"
Before she could finish speaking, Lin Er rushed over, carrying a doll that was blowing bubbles, making it impossible for Huiyi to push him away.
"impossible!"
Knowing something is one thing, but being able to accept it is another.
Under the dejected gaze of Lin Er, Huiyi returned to the palace with goosebumps all over her body.
Inside the carriage, Huiyi watched as Lin Er, holding the baby in swaddling clothes, gazed wistfully at her as she walked away.
Huiyi felt inexplicably guilty and almost wanted to get off the bus and go back to the Lin family.
But the shame she felt made her continue to run away, and she quickly returned to her parents' home.
Although Emperor Yongxi and Empress Du also found the matter strange, they understood their daughter's feelings and allowed Huiyi to adapt to life in the palace.
Five or six days passed, and the Emperor and Empress were still quite patient, but Lin Lanting was getting increasingly anxious.
He brought his son directly in and begged the Emperor and Empress. After many days, Huiyi saw the father and son again.
"Is the princess going to abandon us, father and son, because she hasn't returned yet?"
The accusation was almost tearful, and Huiyi blushed upon hearing it.
During her time in the palace, she had already inquired about the two men's situation.
I asked my parents, my older siblings, and of course, I asked Yu Niang and the others the most.
After all, they have been serving by his side for many years, so they must know everything.
"Yu Niang, is it true that Lin Er and I have a harmonious marital relationship?"
Huiyi simply couldn't believe it; she and Lin Er were practically at each other's throats.
Although it's possible she simply can't beat them.
Even though several days had passed, Huiyi still remembered Yu Niang's answer.
"Initially they were not on good terms, but the princess and her husband grew closer and eventually consummated their marriage. Their relationship improved dramatically after the campaign against Goguryeo."
Huiyi found it strange and continued to ask, "How could you make such rapid progress?"
Biqing honestly replied, "They would hold hands and hug each other at the drop of a hat, and often kissed in front of the maids. During meals, the princess would sometimes sit on the prince consort's lap, and at night it was even more intense."
"That's enough, stop talking."
Huiyi closed her eyes, as if she were dead, her expression numb.
Biqing was quiet for a few moments, then heard her princess ask, "Then, does he like me?"
Without needing Biqing's reply, all the maids nodded vigorously in unison.
"Of course, the prince consort adores the princess; he gets jealous even when she speaks a single word to a young man!"
Kingdee made a solemn vow.
Huiyi blushed and remained silent for a long time.
Upon seeing Lin Er again, Huiyi couldn't help but recall these events, her expression shifting unpredictably.
"Let's go."
Facing the resentful Lin Er, Huiyi uttered these words as if admitting defeat.
Lin Lanting was taken aback and couldn't react for a moment.
He had prepared a whole bunch of things to say, but he didn't use a single one.
After returning home, Lin Lanting was even more attentive than usual in order to help Huiyi remember him as soon as possible.
As a result, Huiyi is now completely overwhelmed by the other party's enthusiasm and finds it difficult to cope.
In terms of clothing, food, housing, and transportation, he served her even more attentively than Yu Niang and others, not to mention that he obeyed her every request.
What moved Huiyi the most was the burning affection in Lin Er's eyes.
She had never seen it before; it was extremely rare.
Feeling pleased, she was no longer so resistant to Lin Er and allowed him to sleep in bed with her.
Naturally, such tolerance easily fostered Lin Er's ambition, especially for someone like Lin Er who was used to having a life of luxury.
So, after drinking a few cups of osmanthus wine, Huiyi, feeling dizzy, was then taken advantage of by Lin Er.
Breathless from his kisses, Huiyi felt shy, but her body welcomed him.
After a period of frenzy, and after being struck dozens of times, a flash of white light appeared in Huiyi's mind, and she remembered everything.
Panting, Huiyi looked at Lin Er's equally ruddy face and cursed, "You bastard, you won't even leave me alone now that I have amnesia!"
Upon hearing this, Lin Lanting's eyes lit up, and she exclaimed happily, "You remembered?"
Huiyi, who has lost her memory, wouldn't call him that; it's been a source of playful banter between the couple over the past few years.
Huiyi didn't answer, but only glared at him and gave a soft snort.
That glance was captivating to Lin Lanting, stirring his excitement and interest, which he then suppressed.
"In that case, let's celebrate again!"
The night was endless, and the couple drank and made merry until dawn.
