Chapter 284: The prince who pretends to have amnesia

When Gu Tan's grandmother regained consciousness and woke up, she found herself lying on an ice bed in an ice cave, and she felt her body and seemed to be fine.

Suddenly, she sat up curiously, looked around, and saw that there was no one else but herself.

After a little recollection, she remembered that after she ran away from home, she saved a young man at the foot of a deserted mountain.

In order to save the young man who had fallen off the cliff and was about to freeze to death, she had to light a bonfire, so although she later saved the man, she herself was so hot that she bled all over her body and passed out.

It's just that before she completely lost consciousness, she seemed to have said a lot to a strange man, that person seemed to be a prince, she also encouraged him after knowing his unfortunate experience, and then when the man asked her if she wanted to enter the palace, she said yes in a vague way, and she didn't know anything.

She didn't wake up until this moment, so she didn't know what happened later, why didn't she die, and was even sent to this ice cave?

Obviously, the other party should already know her body, and she has the strange problem of being afraid of heat and cold.

She didn't know what time or day it was, for she suspected she might have been in a coma for days.

Moreover, her mind is very clear now, so she carefully recalled the experience before she fell into a coma, as well as the conversation with the strange man, and she had reason to believe that the man she rescued was the Nine Emperor Princes.

And she suspected that she should have been saved by the Nine Emperor Princes, because when she was in a daze, she told the Nine Emperor Princes about her strange problems and the purpose of coming to this barren mountain and wilderness.

It's just that she felt that since the Nine Emperor Princes were assassinated by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, although he survived by luck, he was also a person who could not be protected by himself, how could he have the ability to save her?

And at that time, the Nine Emperor Princes also told her that there was no evidence in her hand to prove His Royal Highness the Prince's assassination of him, so even if he returned to the palace, he would not be able to identify His Royal Highness the Prince, and even if he returned to the palace and did not identify His Royal Highness the Prince, it was not impossible for the other party to take risks again and continue to assassinate him in the palace in order to avoid finding evidence to identify him sooner or later.

So she felt that the Nine Emperor Princes had no suitable reason and would not rush back to the palace, but the Nine Emperor Princes, who were injured all over his body, in this ice and snow, if no one came to rescue him back to the palace, then he would be trapped there, and sooner or later it would still be very dangerous.

But no matter what, Gu Tan's grandmother thought that it was impossible for the weak Nine Emperor Princes to save her, and they could deliberately send her to an ice cave that was so suitable for her strange problems.

However, the question arises again, that is, if he didn't save her, then who was so kind to send her to this ice cave?

In order to figure out all this, she hurriedly got up, got out of the ice bed, and walked towards the entrance of the cave.

Upon reaching the entrance of the cave, she saw a thick sheepskin blanket hanging from the entrance, apparently to keep the ice cave warm.

When she lifted the sheepskin blanket, she saw a light blue transparent light film, which she tried to touch with her hands, it was smooth and thin.

She easily put her hand through the light film and reached outside, and suddenly she felt that it was noticeably warmer outside, and that it was no longer a cave, but a room that looked like a study, and there was no sign of freezing.

It can be seen that this layer of light has the magical power to seal this ice cave, so that the temperature in the ice cave can be maintained for a long time.

Through this layer of light film, Gu Tan's grandmother also saw a girl who looked like a palace maid, lying on the desk and falling asleep.

So, curiously, she stepped out of the light film, stayed for a while, and when she found that her skin did not have any symptoms of fever, she knew that it must not be between midnight and midnight, otherwise her skin would be oozing blood and sweat again, and cracking.

Because this strange problem of hers is only most serious at midnight, although she can't bask in the sun for a long time, but it doesn't cause her skin to crack and sweat.

Since she was in good health, she walked towards the palace maid, wanting to see if she could wake her up and ask what was going on, otherwise staying here so unexplained would not be a long-term solution, and her heart would be extremely uneasy.

Although she walked very lightly, the palace maid who was sleeping on her stomach was still awakened, squinted her eyes and looked up, and the moment she saw Gu Tan's grandmother, she suddenly became sober.

The palace maid stood up with a look of surprise and asked with concern, "This young lady, have you finally woken up?" Is there anything you feel uncomfortable with? If you are hungry, Xiang'er will heat up the porridge for you. ”

"Oh, I'm fine, Xiang'er, come, let's sit down and talk, shall we? I'm really fine, I'm not hungry, you don't have to worry. Gu Tan's grandmother hurriedly grabbed Xiang'er and said, after speaking, she took Xiang'er's hand and sat down on the bench next to the desk.

"Miss, you can sit, Xiang'er can stand. You are a distinguished guest, Xiang'er is just an ordinary palace maid, how can you be so rude. Xiang'er stood up a little flustered and said.

"Hehe, it's okay, there are no outsiders here, just the two of us, so you don't have to stick to those red tape, I should be older than you, you just treat me as your sister, can't you just chat casually with your sister? What's more, my sister also has something serious to ask you, so you can sit down and talk with peace of mind, right? Gu Tan's grandmother pulled Xiang'er to sit down again and persuaded her.

"That'...... All right. That Xiang'er is respectful, so it is better to obey her fate. If the young lady has anything to say, just ask? Xiang'er saw that Gu Tan's grandmother insisted, so she had no choice but to compromise.

"Xiang'er, can you tell me where this is? Why am I here? Gu Tan's grandmother asked straight to the point.

"This is the underground secret room of Concubine Yi's Niangniang Palace, and Xiang'er doesn't know why you're here. Because Concubine Yi just told me that you are a distinguished guest and you should take good care of it. And as far as I know, in this underground secret room, Concubine Yi only tells the closest and trusted people. There are no more than five people in the palace who know about this place. So you can recuperate here, obviously the trustworthy person of Concubine Yi, that is Xiang'er's honored guest. Xiang'er said honestly.

"Yifei Niangniang? This is the Royal Palace? Oh, my God! Did I actually enter the palace? However, I don't know Concubine Yi, why would she save me? Gu Tan's grandmother asked puzzled.

"This ...... Xiang'er doesn't know so much. Concubine Yi didn't tell Xiang'er who you were and where you came from. Xiang'er replied embarrassedly.

"Hmm...... Are you familiar with the Nine Emperors? Did he also return to the palace? Gu Tan's grandmother thought about it and asked.

The reason why she asked about the Nine Emperor Princes was that she was also concerned about his injury, after all, she saved him and hoped that the other party would be safe and sound.

Second, I also feel that since I have entered the palace, I must also have something to do with the Nine Emperor Princes, so I want to ask myself why I came here, and the Nine Emperor Princes are also a breakthrough.

"The Nine Emperors? Of course familiar, Concubine Yi is his mother. Could it be that you are a friend of the Nine Emperor Princes? Pity...... Hey......" Xiang'er replied in some surprise, but after mentioning the Nine Emperor Princes, she suddenly became sad.

"Huh? Concubine Yi is his mother? That...... I understand. It turned out that he really saved me and brought me into the palace again. It's just that why did you put me in Concubine Yi's secret room? By the way, Xiang'er, what are you sighing about? Could it be that the Nine Emperor Princes are ...... After returning to the palace, did the injury become very serious? Gu Tan's grandmother suddenly said to herself.

It's just that he suddenly felt that Xiang'er's tone of voice was a little wrong, and he hurriedly asked worriedly.

"That's not true, the wounds on his body have been seen by the imperial doctor, they are all skin injuries, just recuperate for a while. However, he ...... Maybe it's because I accidentally fell off the cliff, hit my head on the ground, and lost a lot of memories, and now I don't remember anyone except knowing Yifei Niangniang. And he has become like a child, as if he has changed back to the Nine Emperors of ten years ago! When the imperial doctor saw it, he was helpless, I'm afraid that the Nine Emperor Princes have been like this all his life! Hey, what a good prince the Nine Emperors are, the people outside the palace are rumored to support him as the crown prince! Why did he suddenly become like this? Xiang'er really feels wronged for the Nine Emperor Princes. Xiang'er replied with a complicated expression.

"What? Amnesia? Accidentally fell off a cliff? He was obviously ...... by Tai" Gu Tan's grandmother shouted silently, only halfway through speaking, she stopped again, and did not continue.

The reason why Gu Tan's grandmother couldn't help but didn't continue was because she suddenly thought of a possibility, that is, it was very likely that the Nine Emperor Princes would pretend to have amnesia after returning to the palace.

After all, in Gu Tan's grandmother's memory, after the Nine Emperor Princes were rescued by her, everything was normal, and she also told her about being hunted down and killed by His Royal Highness the Prince, obviously not having lost her memory.

However, if he returns unharmed in such a righteous and bright manner, it will inevitably make His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, who intends to kill him, nervous, and even take risks, in order to prevent him from telling the story of his assassination, and poisoning him again.

So in order to let the opponent relax his vigilance, he simply did not identify His Royal Highness the Crown Prince as a killer against him, but instead returned to the palace with the idea that he accidentally fell off the cliff and pretended to be a child who had lost a lot of memories.

also pretended to only know Concubine Yiniang, and he didn't recognize other people, including His Majesty.

In this way, a prince who has lost his memory and has turned back into a childlike heart will not let His Royal Highness the Crown Prince think that he still has the ability and the ability for him to compete for the position of the prince.

As time passed, the people and ministers who were optimistic about him became dead to him, and he was slowly forgotten.

And during this period, he can secretly continue to investigate the crimes of His Royal Highness the Prince, and wait until one day when there is conclusive evidence, then tell the truth, and he can completely bring down His Royal Highness the Prince.

After thinking about this truth, she was very glad that she didn't blurt out the truth in front of Xiang'er, otherwise the people in this palace are unpredictable, and the walls have ears, once this secret reaches the ears of His Royal Highness the Prince, then the Nine Emperors will be in crisis again......
