C429 The Old Man Didn't Know Him

Lyi Xuanzhi recalled every detail in his mind. Yue Niansheng, Lu Che, and his father, Lianfeng...

However, he could not recall what he had done in the past five years. What had happened again? The token in Lu Che's hand had left a deep impression on him. It was his own word. It was carved by him, but he had forgotten everything. He couldn't remember anything.

He did not have a splitting headache like Mu Haiyang, but he really did not remember anything. His mind was blank. It was as if he was listening to a story between the two of them.

"Yue Niansheng also realized that you don't remember what happened before, so he agreed to come to the Moon Abyss to interrogate you." Lingsu continued.

"I can't remember what I told you all at all. It's as if it isn't mine. But I can confirm that I know Lu Che. " He had a very deep impression of his token, and that was when he carved it. However, he didn't know that person. Since it belonged to him... And he had carved the name of that person, it meant that he definitely knew that person.

"All these years, Master has been trying to find the reason but to no avail. So this time, he asked me to stay by your side and accompany you back to the country." Lingsu didn't know what had happened to him, so he could only obey his master's orders.

"I also want to know..." Lyi Xuanzhi fell into deep thought, but he had been thinking about a problem. If he really didn't remember them, then what happened after he returned to the country... No one knew. What was more, what if it didn't work? How can I prove that I know these people?

They had a plan in mind, but this plan would only be told to Lingsu when it was absolutely necessary.

After thinking for a while, he slowly said, "It is unknown whether Haiyang will live or die in Anhe this time. Haiyang will stay by Yue Niansheng's side!"

"You... You are not taking her back?" Lingsu was a little surprised by his decision.

"No."

He had already made up his mind. He had made up his mind.

On the same night, Lyi Xuanzhi went into the Imperial Palace again without telling everyone. This time, he did not go to see Yici. Instead, he went to Yue Niansheng's place.

"I will leave Haiyang to you. I hope you can protect her for the rest of her life."

Yue Niansheng also felt that something was not right. He calmed down and said, "King Lyi wants to return to the country, not die!"

Regarding Mu Haiyang's matter, none of them were willing to give in. For other matters, they were still friends. After all, they had used each other before and were very familiar with each other.

"What she wants is a stable life and a life. We can't give it to you or me, but you can protect her more than I can." This was something that Lyi Xuanzhi had to admit.

Even if he didn't admit it, this was the truth.

After leaving Yue Niansheng's palace, he turned to the Launette Bureau to take a look. He didn't see her, so he left.

After that, it was Yue Niansheng who came. He saw that she happened to come out of Li wet nurse's room and was caught, then started a massacre.

The same news was sent to the satin shop. "Not good, not good!"

"Yici started a massacre in the Palace!" A subordinate who had returned from outside hurriedly said.

Lyi Xuanzhi, who had just entered, heard this and frowned slightly before turning back. However, by the time he arrived, Yici was already lying in a pool of blood. She had been taken away by Yue Niansheng.

"Maybe this is also good!" He sighed slightly, carrying all his emotions. He looked at her deeply, as if this glance was going to melt her into his mind and never erase it.

He didn't go back. These days were very difficult to endure. He couldn't accept so many things in a short period of time. He had been in the restaurant all this time.

Until the eve of the Mid-Autumn Festival Grand Ceremony. Only then did Lingsu bring him back from the restaurant. He didn't go crazy with alcohol, nor did he make a fuss. He was very quiet and drunk.

After giving him some medicinal soup, he woke up early in the morning the next day. It was already mid-autumn by then. It made the longing in his eyes intensify, but it also flashed by. It was branded in his heart.

"Are you still going to the banquet today?" Lingsu asked.

Lyi Xuanzhi's eyes were confused as he said, "Go!"

He did not sleep for a few days and stayed in the restaurant drinking. He wanted to immerse himself in the wine so that he could remember Yici more clearly. He was afraid that if he failed, even Yici would not remember.

He slept until it was dark and the banquet in the Palace had already begun. He then got up from the bed.

"Let's go!" He calmly opened the door and said to Lingsu.

Lyi Xuanzhi changed into a clean set of clothes. Even the alcohol smell on his body had dissipated.

Lingsu, who was behind him, could only remain silent. He followed him into the Palace to attend the banquet.

...

Yici was invited back from the outer perimeter by Yan Yi. She sat back in that position. Originally, her seat was close to an empty seat beside Yue Niansheng. She would not go, so she found an empty seat.

Seeing her return, Lyi Xuanzhi withdrew his gaze from the direction she left and started to chat and laugh with Wang Sining who was beside him.

Yici could not help but look at him, but he did not even look at her out of the corner of his eye. It made her stubborn, and she stared at him without moving her eyes away.

Lyi Xuanzhi looked at her and was slightly shaken, but he still did not look at her.

Even Lingsu, who was beside her, felt strange, but he didn't say anything and just looked at Yici. Yici's gaze was always on Lyi Xuanzhi, as if she was saying, If you don't look at me, I won't look away.

After a few songs ended, Yue Niansheng slowly opened his mouth and said, "Today, Zhen still has one more thing. Zhen wants to take Yici as a concubine and manage all the affairs in the harem."

After this sentence, everyone exploded. Who was Yici? Managing the harem? Wasn't there still the Empress? Who exactly is she?

Even Lyi Xuanzhi was slightly stunned, but he still couldn't look at Yici.

"Me?" Yici withdrew her gaze from him and pointed at herself in confusion.

As the sound fell, Yue Niansheng came to her side and took her to the empty seat beside him. The empty seat on the other side was occupied by Ho Yun'er who was pregnant.

The discussions below continued, "Who is she?"

"Is she that witch?"

"[I heard she killed a lot of people from the Launette Bureau...]"

"How can such a witch manage a harem?"

...

All kinds of unpleasant words were heard, except for Lyi Xuanzhi who didn't speak much. There were also a few people who knew her appearance was exactly the same as Imperial Consort, who had passed away, and they kept discussing about this matter.

"She looks like Imperial Consort in the past."

"She can't be that Imperial Consort, right?"

"Who are you talking about?"

"You have just entered the court and are not clear. Before the Emperor ascended the throne, he had married seven wives and all of them died mysteriously before the coronation. The current Empress is his concubine."

...

There were a few who were talking about what happened back then. Anyway, it did not calm down at all. This time, she was promoted to a concubine, and her authority was to manage the harem. She had more authority than the Empress, even though her title was the Empress. But her right is greater than this woman's.
