Chapter 9: Did I Really Lose My Memory?

  Qin Luo Yi blinked her eyes.

  Sitting beside her bed was a woman who looked no more than thirty years old, with a gentle voice and elegant appearance. She wore a moon-white silk jacket with intricate embroidery, a twelve-pleated apricot-colored skirt, and on her head, she had a delicate silver hairpin adorned with pearls and a pair of exquisite ruby earrings.

  Qin Luo's eyes narrowed as he calculated in his mind. This elegant and refined woman should be her current mother, Xie Ruyan!

  Behind Xie Ruyan, a young woman in pink clothes saw her suddenly open her eyes. There was no joy in her eyes, but instead, they became terrified, and her face turned pale. She involuntarily took a step back.

  Qin Luoyi caught sight of her movement, and a cold smile flashed in his heart. A hint of killing intent flashed through the depths of his clear phoenix eyes, but it disappeared before anyone could notice.

  This woman's voice is too familiar!

  It was one of the two women's voices she heard when she first put it on!

  Just now, Xie Ruyan called her Han Er, and she also referred to herself as her sister... Even with just a knee-jerk reaction, it can be guessed that this woman is the illegitimate daughter of Qin Lingyun from the Zhen Nan Wang Fu, her "beloved" older sister Qin Luohans!

  Xie Ruyan looked at her daughter, who had finally woken up after being unconscious for two days, with a joyful smile and held her hand tightly. She gazed at her with great concern and said: "Yi'er, you've finally woken up! Mother was worried to death these past two days. You silly child..."

  She paused for a moment, then gently stroked her head and softly said: "Is there anywhere uncomfortable? Does your head still hurt? You haven't eaten anything for two days. What do you want to eat? I'll have someone make it for you..."

  The warm words were filled with concern, Qin Luoyi shifted her gaze away from Qin Luohan's body.

  "That... are you my mother? You're so young, yet you're actually my mother..." Qin Luo Yi spoke while suppressing the corners of her mouth twitching, but looking at Xie Ru Yan's eyes were crystal clear.

  As soon as these words came out, Xie Ruyan suddenly changed her complexion, and a strange light flashed in her eyes. She stared at her in confusion: "Yī'er... of course I'm your mother... you bumped your head, can't even remember your mother?"

  Qin Luo Yi made a very bewildered expression, shook her head: "Are you really my mother? I don't remember...my head hurts, I don't remember anything!"

  Xie Ruyan's eyes widened. After a moment, she came back to her senses and pointed at Qin Luohan behind her, who also looked confused: "Then... do you know who she is?"

  Qin Luoyi's gaze fell on Qin Luohan again.

  Qin Luohan looked at her, holding his breath, his heart racing.

  "She's a beautiful sister..." Qin Luoyi took in Qin Luohan's abnormal behavior, sneering inwardly, but on her face, a bright and radiant smile blossomed.

  Qin Luo Han let out a sigh of relief, the corners of his lips curled up, but his face was filled with worry as he said: "How could this be... Mother, it seems like little sister really has forgotten about us..."

  Xie Ruyan's face was burning with anxiety when Hua Tuo, whose hair and beard had turned white, walked in.

  There was also a man in his thirties wearing ink-colored clothes who came in with him. The man had thick eyebrows and big eyes, a handsome and resolute face, and an aura of majesty all over his body. His gaze was sharp, his thin lips tightly pursed, but when he saw Qin Luoyi, who had already opened her eyes on the bed, his sharp gaze softened significantly.

  "Yier, you've finally woken up!" Quickly walking to her front, leaning down to look at her, with an unmistakable concern in his eyes.

  Qin Luo blinked and still looked at him with a bewildered expression.

  The man in black clothes was taken aback, slightly furrowing his brow. Xie Ruyan bowed to him and then anxiously said: "Your Highness, something is wrong with Yier! She can't remember Han'er or me..."

  This man in black was Qin Lingyun, who had just been awarded as the King of Southern Chu for his outstanding military achievements a few days ago.

  Huatai stood in front of Qinfangyi, frowning and wrinkling her old face into a chrysanthemum shape, took her pulse again, and looked at the wound on her forehead.

  "Miss County, what's your name again?"

  "I don't remember!"

  ……

  Huatai's serious face asked her a few more questions, Qin Luoyi uniformly responded with a bewildered shake of her head.

  "Reporting to the king, the county master's head was severely injured and should have amnesia!" Standing up, Huatai stroked his beard, shook his head, and came to a final conclusion.

  Qin Luoyi smiled silently in her heart. With the old doctor's words, her future actions, even if they were different from before, would not arouse other people's suspicion.

  She let out a breath of relief, and Qin Luohan, who had been standing beside her all along, also let out a long sigh.

  There is regret in his eyes, but also joy.

  Qin Luoyi caught a glimpse of it out of the corner of her eye and sneered inwardly.

  She used to be wholeheartedly devoted to her cultivation, and because she loved him, she had always trusted her fiancé's words without any doubt. As a result, she eventually brought disaster upon herself!

  Her cousin, who had always been close to her, not only stole her fiancé's love and joined forces with that despicable man to betray their feelings, but also ruthlessly killed her in order to help that woman take down the Ren family's master...

  And now, she has been reborn in Qin Luoyi's body and will never give anyone the opportunity to hurt her again! Qin Luhai... this woman, it's best if she has nothing to do with the matter of being drugged and injured, otherwise, she will make her know what it means to be worse off than dead!

  "Amnesia?" Qin Lingyun pursed his thin lips, looking at the pale and weak daughter lying on the bed, his eyes filled with pity: "Then when will she be able to remember?"

  "This is not accurate!"

  "Amnesia is caused by the impact on the head, resulting in blood stasis," said Hua Taiyi after a moment of contemplation. "I'll prescribe some medicine to activate blood circulation and remove stasis. Perhaps after a few months, when the stasis is resolved, the young mistress will gradually recover her previous memories..."

  "In a few months she'll be able to recall?" Qin Lingyun heard this and a hint of a smile appeared at the corner of his lips.

  Xie felt relieved and let out a sigh of relief, feeling like a heavy burden had been lifted off her shoulders.

  Qin Luo Han clenched the handkerchief in her hand tightly and gritted her teeth secretly.

  Huatai shook his head: "A few months is the most optimistic situation, and there's no specific time frame. It may take three to five years, or it's possible that the princess will never remember for her entire life..."

  Qin Lingyun's smile at the corner of his mouth disappeared, and he looked at his daughter with bright and clear eyes, but her gaze was like looking at a stranger. He furrowed his brow: "Isn't there any other way?"

  Huatai doctor shook his head again: "The young lady's injury is to the head, being able to wake up safely is already a miracle... Your Highness, let nature take its course for everything else... Hmm, except for using medicine, telling the young lady about past events more often, and staying in familiar places may be helpful to her..."

  Qin Lingyun nodded, and Huatai Medical went out to open a prescription. He personally sent it out.

  Ten days later, Qin Luoyi's injuries had almost fully recovered. From Xie Ruyan and a group of old maidservants, she also gained some initial understanding of the world she was in.

  This is the Holy Dragon Continent, the vast territory of the Holy Dragon Continent was originally divided into three powerful nations: Chu, Yan, and Zhao. Surrounding them were many smaller countries, but those small countries had poor land and weak national strength, relying on the breath of these three major powers to survive, they were their vassal states.

  But this triangular balance was broken a few months ago.

  The secret alliance between the two countries of Yan and Zhao wanted to devour Chu, but they didn't expect that their conspiracy not only failed, but was also counterattacked by Qin Lingyun, the current King of Zhen Nan, who led his troops to retake the fallen city and even invaded the territories of Yan and Zhao, seizing nearly half of their lands.

  The current Holy Dragon Continent, the territory of Chu State is extremely large, occupying more than half, while the original Yan and Zhao states that were in a tripod situation with it are no longer worthy of fear.

  All of this was thanks to her father, Qin Lingyun, so the Emperor of Chu made an exception and issued a special decree, conferring upon her father the title of Duke of Southern Pacification, and upon her the title of Duchess. He also bestowed upon her a marriage to the exceptionally talented and handsome Third Prince, Chu Yixiu...
