"Qin'er, what's wrong with you, it's okay. Did you get burned on your hands? Xuanyuan Hao immediately took off the cup in Qin'er's hand, wiped off the water stains on her hands with his sleeve, carefully checked it, and said happily: "Fortunately, I didn't burn my hands, just a little red, and I will soak it in cold water later." ”

"Ah Shui!" Looking at Xuanyuan Hao's concern for herself, Qin'er had mixed feelings in her heart, nodded with a smile, leaned her head on Xuanyuan Hao's shoulder, and thought in her heart to take him away from here quickly, "Let's get out of here, let's move to a place where no one knows us, okay?" ”

"Why move away, isn't this a place where we grew up together?" Xuanyuan Hao asked Qin'er puzzled, "Where do you want to move?" As he was talking, he suddenly heard a knock on the door outside.

"Ah Shui!" Qin'er took Xuanyuan Hao's hand and looked at him uneasily, "Who could it be so late?" Hearing the increasingly violent knocker at the door, Qin'er became even more uneasy.

"Don't worry, I'll go out and have a look." Xuanyuan Hao let go of Qin'er's hand, strode to open the door, saw a group of people standing at the door, and asked unfamiliarly, "Who are you?" ”

"Nine Emperor Brothers, Master." Xuanyuan Jue and Secret Whisper shouted at Xuanyuan Hao in unison, reaching out to touch him, but he avoided him, looking at his unfamiliar gaze, Xuanyuan Jue and Secret Whisper glanced at each other, and asked suspiciously: "Nine Emperor Brother, what's wrong with you?" ”

"Who are you? I don't know you, are you looking for the wrong person? Xuanyuan Hao looked at Xuanyuan Jue and the secret words strangely, and blocked the door defensively.

"You really don't know us anymore? I am Xuanyuan Jue, your Eighth Emperor Brother, he is a code word, your entourage, you were chased by the man in black on the way back to Beijing from the Imperial Tomb, and fell from the cliff into the river, we have been looking for you for many days, and now we have finally found you, do you really not remember us? ”

"You know me?" Xuanyuan Hao turned to look at Qin'er, saw the uneasiness and panic in Qin'er's eyes, looked at Xuanyuan Jue and the secret words again, and asked curiously, "Who am I, and who are you?" Prince? Am I the emperor's son? ”

Looking at such a strange Xuanyuan Hao, the joy of finding him slowly disappeared, Xuanyuan Jue looked at him with a heavy heart, and in the face of the amnesiac Xuanyuan Hao, he didn't know what to do for a while.

"That's right, you and I are both the emperor's sons, I am the eighth prince Xuanyuan Jue, you are the ninth emperor Xuanyuan Hao, and you also have a wife in your mansion, it is your ninth prince concubine, called Murong Xuanji, her father is our general Murong He, the general of the Beiming Kingdom, you love each other very much." On the one hand, Xuanyuan Jue explained to Xuanyuan Hao, and on the other hand, he also said it to Qin'er with a meaning.

"I'm married?" Xuanyuan Hao turned around and glanced at Qin'er worriedly, saw her bowing her head and was silent, returned to her side and took her hand and said to Xuanyuan Jue and the secret words: "I am very strange to the people you just said, I only know that Qin'er rescued me from the river, and Qin'er has been taking care of me carefully, and the person I want to marry is her." ”

"Master." The code shouted disapprovingly, and wanted to open his mouth to stop it, but was stopped by Xuanyuan Jue.

"This matter is not very important, you go back to Beijing with me first, there are many people in the capital waiting for you to go back. Only when we see you come back safely will everyone be reassured. Xuanyuan Jue said.

Xuanyuan Hao was silent for a while, and did not directly agree to Xuanyuan Jue, and said without a smile: "You let me think about this matter again, you go back first tonight." ”

"Okay, we'll go back today, but we'll be here tomorrow." Xuanyuan Jue nodded, and did not force Xuanyuan Hao to leave with him immediately. Patting Whisper's shoulder, he turned and left first.

After everyone left, Qin'er saw Xuanyuan Hao close the door and returned to the house, and asked nervously, "Ah Shui, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to lie to you." ”

"Is everything you told me before false? Said that I was your childhood sweetheart, because I accidentally fell into the river and almost drowned, and I lost my memory after being rescued by you, so did you lie to me about our previous marriage? Xuanyuan Hao looked at Qin'er calmly and asked.

"I'm sorry." Qin'er lowered her head guiltily, and after a long time, she slowly raised her head and looked at him under Xuanyuan Hao's gaze and said: "I have been an orphan since I was a child, I lived with my grandmother when I was a child, and I was the only one left after my grandmother died, that day I married to collect medicine on the mountain as usual, and when I passed by the river, I saw a person lying by the river, I don't know how long you stayed in the river, you still had a breath when I found you, so I brought you back, and when you woke up, you found that you had lost your memory, and even forgot your name, Because I found you by the water's edge, I will call you Ah Shui. I really didn't mean to lie to you. Qin'er was worried that Xuanyuan Hao would misunderstand herself, so she took his hand a little excitedly and said.

Xuanyuan Hao listened silently, nodded and said: "I don't have any intention of blaming you, but thank you very much, thank you for saving me, if you hadn't saved me that day, maybe I would not be in this world now." ”

"You really don't blame me?" Qin'er looked at Xuanyuan Hao and nodded, decided to believe his words, and asked again, "Then will you leave me and those people behind?" ”

"I haven't thought about it yet, but even if I want to leave, I'll leave with you, don't you want to stay here?" Xuanyuan Jue said calmly.

"As long as you don't leave me." Qin'er held Xuanyuan Hao's hand tightly and refused to let go.

"Eighth Prince, what should we do now? The Nine Emperor Princes are like this now, I don't know how to talk to the Nine Emperor Princesses. What if the master wants to take the woman back? When he returned to his place of residence, he asked Xuanyuan Jue in a secret voice, as soon as he thought that Murong Xuanji would see Xuanyuan Hao bring a woman back, he was very nervous, and he didn't know how Murong Xuanji would react.

"Don't say anything for the time being, just let people go back and spread the word, just say that we have found the Nine Emperor Princes, and we will take the Nine Emperor Princes back as soon as possible, and don't reveal anything else." Xuanyuan Jue said with a serious face: "With my understanding of the Nine Emperor Princesses, even if she sees the Nine Emperor Brothers bring a woman back, she will be able to handle everything very well." She's tougher than the average woman, isn't she? What's more, that woman may not necessarily return to Beijing with the Nine Emperor Brothers. ”

"But-" The secret whisper wanted to say that no matter how strong a woman is, she is just a woman, but in the end she still didn't say it, nodded helplessly, and immediately ordered someone to inform her.

The next morning, when the village was still in silence, Xuanyuan Jue and Secret Whisper came to Xuanyuan Hao again with some of their retinue, and to their surprise, Xuanyuan Hao was already sitting at the door waiting for them.

"What do you decide, go back with us. There are still many people waiting for you in the capital, and your Nine Emperor Princesses are also waiting for you, and she is very worried about you. Xuanyuan Jue spoke again to persuade Xuanyuan Hao.

Xuanyuan Hao smiled mockingly, a little unconvinced of Xuanyuan Jue's words, "If she is really worried about me, why don't you come to me, but let you come to me?" Didn't you say she was the daughter of a great general? Why did you come to me, but someone from the General's Mansion or someone from my Nine Emperors' Mansion came to me? ”

Seeing that Xuanyuan Hao had misunderstood Murong Xuanji, he just wanted to explain, but he saw Qin'er coming out of the house, and knew that now was not a good time to explain, so he endured the words of explanation again, and said in a low voice: "Master, the Nine Emperor Princesses have been staying in the capital and waiting for you to go back, please go back with us." ”

Xuanyuan Hao glanced sideways at the restless Qin'er behind him, and said indifferently: "I can go back with you, but I have no memory of the past, you are all strangers to me, and I need Qin'er to be by my side." ”

Xuanyuan Jue and Secret Words glanced at each other, what the two of them were most worried about still happened, Xuanyuan Jue reluctantly smiled and said: "I know that Miss Qin'er grew up in this small village, you rashly took her back to Beijing, have you considered whether she can adapt to life in the capital?" Besides, you already have a wife in the house, wouldn't it be nice to bring another woman back? If you think it is right to Miss Qin'er, then I have given her a sum of silver taels to ensure that she will have no worries about food and clothing in the future. ”

"Since I am the Nine Emperor Princes, it shouldn't matter how many concubines there are in the mansion except for a wife." Xuanyuan Hao pulled Qin'er to his side, hugged her, and said to Xuanyuan Jue and the secret words: "The only condition for me to go back with you is to go back with Qin'er, otherwise I will stay here." ”

Xuanyuan Jue looked at Xuanyuan Hao in embarrassment, and only after a long time did he reluctantly agree: "Okay, I promise you, I agree to let you take her back." I've got the carriage ready, let's go. ”

"The Eighth Prince!" The secret words looked at Xuanyuan Jue disapprovingly, and saw that Xuanyuan Jue seemed to have decided, so he looked at Xuanyuan Hao again, and saw that his eyes were always looking at Qin'er, and his mood became even heavier.

"I'm going to pack my bags." Hearing that Xuanyuan Hao was going to leave and return to the capital with her, Qin'er was surprised and very happy, let go of Xuanyuan Hao's hand and prepared to go into the house to pack her things, but was stopped by Xuanyuan Jue.

"No, you don't have to bring anything, you have everything when you get to the capital. Let's go, the carriage is still waiting for us outside. Xuanyuan Jue said coldly to Qin'er. If it weren't for Xuanyuan Hao's face, he wouldn't have said a word more to Qin'er.

Qin'er nodded awkwardly, smiled at Xuanyuan Hao, and then left the house with them.

"What you say is true? Did you really find the Nine Emperors? Is the Eighth Prince really coming back with the Ninth Prince? Murong Xuanji looked at the soldiers who came back in disbelief and asked, "How is the Nine Emperor Princes, are you injured?" When will they be back? ”

"The Nine Emperors are all right. The Eighth Emperor asked the Humble Rank to come back first to inform the Nine Emperor Princesses that they were already on their way and would be back soon, so that the Nine Emperor Princesses should not worry. The soldier said in a sonorous voice.

"Good, good. Baoqing, there is a reward. Murong Xuanji said happily, after letting Baoqing send people away, he couldn't wait to see Xuanyuan Hao as soon as possible, and he couldn't even stay in the house, so he hurriedly walked out and wanted to wait for Xuanyuan Hao in the garden, and as soon as he walked out of his courtyard, he saw Murong He and the others coming.

"I've heard that I've found the Nine Emperor Princes." Murong He asked Murong Xuanji happily.

Murong Xuanji nodded with emotion and said, "Yes, the Eighth Prince and the Secret Whisper must have found the Ninth Emperor, and now they are on their way back, and I believe they will be back soon." ”

"Great, great, it's all blessed by the Bodhisattva." Zhou Xiaolan folded her hands and bowed to the sky, "Now you don't have to worry anymore, you are worried about the Nine Emperor Princes these days, and the whole person has lost a lot of weight, if the Nine Emperor Princes come back, they will definitely be very distressed to see you like this." ”

"I'm fine, as long as he can come back safely." Murong Xuanji said happily, and said anxiously: "I'll go to the garden and wait for him first." ”
