Demolition

"My lord!" With a high-pitched voice, an internal officer threw himself at Ying Yuanzhi's feet from outside the door. Ying Yuanzhi was just about to get angry, but the internal officer continued without straightening his tongue, "Young master is awake!"

These four words sounded better than 'good luck', Ying Yuanzhi turned his anger into joy, immediately stopped what he was doing, and rushed into the yard where Lu Chen was resting.

Ye Ji was already sitting beside Lu Chen's bed, looking at him worriedly

"how do you feel?"

Lu Chen had a splitting headache, as if he had been hit by a heavy hammer dozens of times, and his whole body was in a daze. He frowned and pressed the center of his brows:

"pain."

Ye Ji was also in a hurry, but there was no other way, so he could only comfort him.

"The imperial doctor said that you fell from a high place, but luckily you covered the back of your head with your hands, otherwise the condition would have been more serious. Now you don't have to think about anything, just lie on the bed and have a good rest."

Fall from a height?Yes, after she arrived at Anqing Mansion, Anqing Mansion was attacked by crows, so she helped Gao Lian resist the crows, but she didn't expect that she would fall from a high place.

"Then Anqing Mansion?"

"Everything is fine, don't worry."

"Why are you here?"

"The emperor ordered me to check the military visit, and I happened to meet you. I'm also to blame, and I took General Ren away, otherwise you would not be injured."

Ren general?General Ren was, yes, the commander-in-chief stationed at the border. Lu Chen's head was completely muddled, and whenever he thought about something, his reaction would be a few beats slower, which made him very irritable.Wait, doctor?

"Who is the imperial physician?"

"Yes... See Your Highness." Ye Ji knelt down suddenly, and Lu Chen looked up, and it was Ying Yuanzhi!

"Far away? You..."

Seeing him sitting on the bed, Ying Yuanzhi immediately walked over briskly, pressing one hand on his back, with a very distressed tone

"Why don't you lie down properly? The imperial doctor said that your brain is damaged, you need to cultivate well, otherwise there will be sequelae." Then he turned to Ye Ji and said, "Go down, I will take care of him."

Lu Chen watched Ye Ji leave, Ying Yuanzhi picked up the medicine bowl on the side, stirred it gently with a spoon, tested the temperature before feeding it to Lu Chen's mouth, Lu Chen looked at him blankly, Ying Yuan smile

"You are such a worried person. I came here to deal with something. I thought you had already arrived in the north, but I didn't expect you to still stop in Anqing Mansion." After saying that, his face changed again, and he blamed, "You are so impulsive." If you dare to confront the crow with dozens of people, if General Ren hadn’t arrived in time, your life and death would be in doubt right now. Do you want me to worry about you by disregarding your own safety?”

"I……"

"Okay," Ying Yuanzhi gently wiped off the water stains at the corner of his mouth, and helped him to lie down again, "I won't talk about you first, your first priority now is to heal your injuries."

Covering his eyes with his hands,

"Go to sleep."

When I was a child, I often had nightmares and didn't dare to close my eyes. Ying Yuanzhi used this method to persuade him to fall asleep. After so many years of experience again, Lu Chen actually closed his eyes slowly.He obviously had a severe headache and felt nauseous in his stomach, but he didn't know whether it was Ying Yuanzhi holding his hand all the time, or the soothing ingredient in the medicine, Lu Chen gradually entered a half-dream and half-awake state, It wasn't until he heard the sound of Ying Yuanzhi getting up and leaving that he fell asleep.

But he didn't sleep well. He always felt that there was someone lying next to him, and that person kept touching his waist with his hands. The numb feeling and the fact that he didn't have a good piece of meat all over his body made him feel like he was on fire. Heavy days.He wanted to stop that person, but couldn't find where he was.He has been looking for this person throughout the dream, he shuttled through the noisy market and the dense jungle, in fact, he didn't even see a single figure, and he didn't know his name, his appearance, why he wanted to find him, But his anxious state of mind in the dream has been affecting him tossing and turning on the bed.

who is he?Where is he?I want to find him?

This state has been going on for several days. Every time he wakes up, he feels that the pain in his body has increased by two points, and his head is still in that groggy state. At first he told Ye Ji or Ying Yuanzhi, but The imperial doctor changed her medicine for several rounds, and took turns to calm the nerves, invigorate qi and relieve pain, but he didn't get any better. After seeing the imperial doctor being scolded by Ying Yuanzhi several times with a trembling face, he also changed his words and said that he felt much better.

It wasn't that there was something wrong with his body. After several days of observation, he secretly confirmed such a thing.Although he fell from a high place, he didn't find a single bruise on his body, and his bones were all intact. The most important thing was that his internal strength was not affected in any way, on the contrary, there were signs of a great increase!He guessed that the pain in his body was due to the surge of internal force, which caused a strong impact on the meridians, and he was still unable to fully adapt to this inexplicable force. It was fighting with his own strength in the body, which made him suffer so much.

But where does this internal force come from?Was it given to me by the person I was looking for?This feeling of being kept in the dark made him very anxious.It seems that a chain on my body has been cut off by someone, and the rest is put together again. Although it looks seamless, I can keenly detect the difference.The person who stole his things was very cunning. He didn't completely erase his memory, but replaced a part, blurred a part, and fabricated a part. His own experience was tampered with beyond recognition. He clearly remembered everything, but what? I can't match the numbers.And the most obvious is the relationship between himself and Ying Yuanzhi, that kind of intimacy should not be taken for granted.

Since I woke up, the servants have changed their address to me as the original "young master", and even Ye Ji won't call him by his name directly in front of Ying Yuanzhi.This title, which had been abandoned for more than ten years in the palace, was suddenly brought up, which made him confused and uncomfortable: he was no longer a young master.

I am Lu Chen.

But who is Lu Chen?

His life of more than 20 years seems to be lived by another person for him, and he will take it back.

He didn't dare to say anything, and the almost instinctive caution kept him silent, but he began to sort out his thoughts slowly in the long night.He unfolded his folded memories little by little like flipping through a broken book.These are all things that I have personally experienced, but at this moment, it is like watching another person's life on the fly.

He saw tens of thousands of crows rushing towards him in the dark night, he saw the three-legged crow recorded in the local chronicles, he saw Ying Yuanzhi tell him to go to the north to deal with the crow problem, he saw himself resolutely leave from the Third Prince's Mansion, he saw himself hiding in the dark The group of people with strange patterned masks in the corner.

It turned out that this was his life. For some reason, he felt that he had missed a lot of things, and he had a sense of unreality. Everything was deliberately presented to him by someone, and there was no color.It was as if a storyteller with little skill told a mediocre story in an unremarkable way, gray filled his memory.

He must have forgotten something, Lu Chen concluded, but even the matter of 'forgetting' was discovered with great difficulty, so where should he find the things he lost?

"What did you say?"

"I haven't seen you for more than a month, and I feel that you have worn down a lot." Lu Chen repeated his own words strangely.

"Achen, you're really confused. It's already November now, and we haven't seen each other for almost two months. Besides, after you left, we became very busy. We couldn't eat or sleep well, so of course we were haggard. "

Lu Chen paused, two months, how could he have walked from Yangyue City to Anqing Mansion for two full months?What happened to him along the way that made him delay his trip?He continued speaking as calmly as possible.

"Really? It seems that I'm really confused. But don't complain, there were a lot of things before I left."

"Are you ashamed to say it? You promised to help me write the report for the bunch of sneak attacking crows before, but you left without saying a word, which made me work overtime for several days, and I didn't help help me."

Ye Ji was still rambling on, but Lu Chen's expression changed: Crow?What crow?Why can't I remember anything about crows before I left?

"Achen? Achen, are you okay?" Ye Ji muttered to himself, seeing that Lu Chen didn't respond, only to find Lu Chen's pale face when he turned around, and asked him quickly

"I, I suddenly have a headache and want to lie down."

"Okay, okay, do you want to call the imperial doctor?"

"No, I'll be fine with a little sleep."

Ye Ji carefully closed the door for him, and Lu Chen only dared to breathe heavily after confirming that he was gone.He secretly scratched two lines with his nails on the inside of the bed board, and he had already scratched there twice.

He couldn't touch the pen and paper blatantly, and he was afraid of leaving evidence, so whenever he found something that he didn't remember, he would leave a scratch to remind himself.Yes, apart from Ye Ji's inadvertent slip of the tongue just now and the crow's sneak attack, he has already discovered one thing that should be in his memory, but he has no memory of it:

That is the gate of Yang Yue City.

The person who vainly tried to revise his memory made up his experiences along the way to be smooth and uncountable, but this person ignored that everyone who went out for business had to go through the east gate of Yangyue City for identity verification. Yizhan is the only post station outside the city, and the very eye-catching vermilion gate of Yangyue City is not in my memory.

Now he can be sure of two things:

First, there is indeed a problem with his memory, something must have happened before he came to Anqing Mansion, it was so serious that he stopped in spite of his life.Ying Yuanzhi knew what happened to him, he didn't comment on the fact that he was late for a full month and didn't come to work, not only because he was injured so he didn't press it, but also he didn't want himself to notice these things .

Second, Ye Ji must have been reminded not to talk too much, but the two things he said today gave Lu Chen a lot of information.First of all, time. In his memory, he only left for a month, but in fact it has been two months. The time cannot be changed by manpower, even if he wants to hide it from himself, it is impossible.Then came the crow. At first he thought that what he had forgotten was only some unusual things he had experienced along the way, but the city gate reminded him that his forgetting happened in Yangyue city.Ye Ji didn't hide the crow's attack, it wasn't because he made a slip of the tongue, but because he didn't know that he didn't remember it.That is to say, this incident is related to all the subsequent incidents, this connection is only known to him, and this connection is also the core of Ying Yuanzhi's hiding from him.

Lu Chen slowly stabilized his breathing, trying not to pay attention to the pain in his body, and there was one more thing that he noticed:

His little slip of paper was gone.
