The daughter of the emperor was reborn and was spoiled by the sickly prince.

"Father...I just received a letter from him. How could something go wrong?"

Liao Qinglan's voice trembled a little, and she couldn't believe her ears.

"This is news that was sent over 800 miles in urgency. It can't be false. Jizhou is already searching with all its might."

She felt dizzy and had to support herself on the table with her hands to keep herself from falling.

"How could this happen? He's so skilled, how could he fall into the water?" Liao Qinglan murmured to herself, unwilling to believe it.

"Don't worry too much. It took three days for the news to come from Jizhou. Maybe the person has been found now, but the news has not been sent back yet." Liao Zhendong comforted.

It’s been three days…

If he fell into the Yellow River in such a cold day, even if he was not injured, he would be half frozen to death.

"Your Majesty has ordered me to go to Jizhou in person. I will inform you as soon as there is any news." Liao Zhendong patted her shoulder and turned to leave.

"Father, I want to go with you." Liao Qinglan forced herself to stand up and followed Liao Zhendong.

Liao Zhendong could understand her anxious mood, nodded, and said, "Pack your things, we will leave immediately."

Liao Qinglan did not pack her luggage, but went to the warehouse and randomly stuffed a lot of precious medicinal herbs that could replenish qi and dispel cold.

The medicinal materials filled half of the truck and were sent to Mo Wang.

"Master, Gu Mingzhao fell into the river and disappeared. Can you go to Jizhou with me?"

After much thought, Liao Qinglan decided to let Mo Wang go with her, which would make her feel more at ease.

"Something happened to that kid named Gu?" Mo Wang was so shocked that his beard trembled. "There's no time to lose, let's get going!"

"Jinxiu, you and the master should take a good inventory of the spare medicinal materials, and then set out with the guards from the Prime Minister's Mansion tomorrow." Liao Qinglan ordered.

"Miss, won't you come with us?"

"You guys take the carriage, and my father and I will go ahead on horseback."

Liao Qinglan couldn't sit still for a moment and wished she could fly to Jizhou immediately.

"I want to be with the young lady!" Jinxiu said.

"Listen, your task is to take good care of Master and the herbs for me. This is a very important matter, and I don't trust you to leave it to others."

"I understand, and I will definitely live up to your trust." Jinxiu nodded.

"Master, please go to the storehouse later to see if there is anything else that can be used, and ask Jinxiu to pack it up and take it away."

Mo Wang and Jin Xiu nodded.

After explaining everything that needed to be said, Liao Qinglan returned to her room, packed two sets of clothes, carried a simple bag, and strode to the stable to set off with her father.

pain……

Gu Mingzhao's consciousness seemed to be shrouded in thick fog.

The pain pierced his mind like needles.

He felt his memory and vitality slipping away.

I don't know how long I wandered in this chaos.

When he thought he would never get out of this fog, he vaguely heard a woman crying.

The woman's voice sounded so sad that he couldn't help but raise his hand to wipe away her tears.

"A Zhao, you can't be in trouble."

He tried to find the source of the voice and tried hard to see the woman's face clearly, but he was blocked by an invisible force and could not get away.

Gu Mingzhao suddenly opened his eyes, and the dazzling sunlight made him unable to help but block the light with the back of his hand.

A soft body fell into his arms, followed by a woman's crying voice.

"Your Highness, you are finally awake!"

Gu Mingzhao frowned, his head splitting. He pushed the woman away and asked coldly, "Who are you?"

After the woman was pushed away, her charming eyes looked at him in disbelief, tears welling up in her eyes.

"It's Ruyan!" Her voice trembled slightly. "Your Highness, don't you remember?"

Gu Mingzhao tried hard to recall, but his mind was in a mess. He felt a splitting headache and could not remember anything.

He could only give up his memories temporarily, sit up, and lean against the head of the bed tiredly.

Glancing at the surroundings, this should be an abandoned thatched hut and I have no idea where I am.

"What is your relationship with me? Why are we here?" he asked warily.

Seeing this, Ruyan leaned her soft and boneless body against his arms, her hands tightly around his waist.

"Your name is Gu Mingzhao, the only king of a different surname in the Dayin Dynasty, and my name is Ruyan. We grew up together, but later we were separated for many years due to some changes. Later, we met again with great difficulty, and you had been promoted to the King of Qin.

I know that my status is far inferior to yours, so I do not seek any status and am willing to be a shameful concubine.

This time you came to Jizhou to control the flood, I was really worried about you, so I followed you secretly. Who knew that you would slip and fall into the Yellow River, and I jumped in without thinking.

You fell into a coma after falling into the water. I held you and floated on the water for a long time before being washed to the shore. I found this empty house and waited for you to wake up. "

Gu Mingzhao closed his eyes and tried hard to recall, but the memory in his mind was still blurry.

Seeing that he was frowning, Ruyan comforted him softly, "Your Highness, you just woke up, there is no need to rush. I will always be by your side and help you regain your memory slowly."

Gu Mingzhao opened his eyes, as if he was moved by her words, his eyes were gentle and tender: "Ruyan, I'm a little hungry, can you help me find some food?"

His voice was deep and pleasant, causing Ruyan's heart to tremble.

Ruyan nodded shyly and quickly walked out of the hut to prepare food.

Gu Mingzhao watched Ruyan's departing back.

His eyes gradually turned cold until she disappeared from his sight.

"Hehe, this is interesting." He snorted, a playful smile on his face.

He just lost his memory, but this woman had the audacity to treat him like a fool and was full of lame lies.

He clearly remembered that he was pushed off the river bank.

The feeling of being suddenly attacked and falling is still vivid in my mind.

A grown man fell down and fainted. Why should a woman jump down to save him?

What's more, there is no sound of water around here, so it should be some distance away from the river.

He didn't believe that he was washed here by the water.

I also don't believe that a weak woman could drag herself unconscious to such a distance from the shore.

The most important thing is that the woman smelled strongly of makeup, and he felt like vomiting when she got close to him.

How could it be his concubine with such a disgusting smell?

She said so much just now, but I'm afraid that except for the name, not a single word of it is true.

Gu Mingzhao had already made a judgment in his mind.

This woman must have accomplices nearby.

At this moment, the enemy is in the dark and he is in the light, so we should not act rashly.

Moreover, there is a high possibility that Ruyan and the person who pushed him into the water were in cahoots.

He decided to remain silent for the time being and see what Ruyan's purpose was.
