In the Queen Mother's palace, the imperial doctor came out of the inner hall with a confused look on his face. He shook his head at the nervous Queen Mother and said, "We have indeed carefully examined the prince's body, but there is no injury anywhere on his body. He is very healthy."
"Kang Jian? If it is Kang Jian, how come King Hao thinks he is only nine years old this year?"
The Queen Mother was being supported, and her anxious voice was trembling: "Are you sure you have checked carefully?"
The imperial doctor hurriedly knelt down and said, "Maybe, maybe Weichen is not good at studying, so he can't find out why the prince lost his memory."
Not good at studying
But he is already the best doctor in the Imperial Hospital.
The Queen Mother frowned and waved people off, then turned and entered the inner hall.
In the inner hall, Ji Changze was being served and dressed. When he saw the Queen Mother, he looked over and shouted with a smile: "Queen Mother."
He saluted and then said, "Don't worry, Queen. Maybe I have some rare illness. I'll be fine in two days."
After he finished speaking, he smiled and coaxed: "Although I just saw my current appearance in the bronze mirror, I was sure that it was indeed six years later, but looking at my mother, I became unsure again. "
He opened his mouth and said sweetly: "If it has really been six years, why is it that the queen mother is not only not old, but also looks much younger? Could it be that the queen mother is really a fairy empress in heaven?"
Even though the Queen Mother was still worried about whether her youngest son had some strange disease, she was still amused and laughed after hearing what Ji Changze said.
"You kid will make your mother happy."
She had almost forgotten that Nagasawa was like this before. Although he was spoiled to be a bit arrogant, he always made people irritated every time he got into trouble. Wasn't it because of his mouth
If he causes any trouble, before anyone comes to him, he will already smile and start talking sweetly, and his straightforward flattery will make people fly to the sky.
He is always the youngest one, and every time he makes people laugh or cry, he not only cannot get angry with him, but also thinks that his son/brother is really frank and cute.
It's just that I didn't expect that Nagasawa, who is now fifteen years old, would be very suitable to say such words.
In the past few years, Nagasawa's temperament has changed drastically. He no longer visits the Queen Mother from time to time, deliberately acting coquettishly and making childish gestures to make her happy. He no longer grows flowers by himself and delivers them to the Queen Mother like treasures when they bloom, as he did before. , saying that he would give the most beautiful flowers to his mother.
Emperor Yuan Chen was filial and would give the Queen Mother any rare treasures first. The Queen Mother naturally lacked everything, but this did not prevent her from feeling happy every time she saw those flowers.
After all, she hadn't seen a Nagasawa flower for several years.
"Okay, Queen Mother, it's okay. Maybe I can just take a nap. But Queen Mother, you haven't answered my previous question yet. Why have all the people in my palace been changed, and only Sister Ru'er is left?" Sister Ru'er, if I were fifteen now, wouldn't she be twenty-seven? Why haven't you let her out of the palace and found a good family for her?"
How did the Queen Mother know this? She could only pat her son's hand gently and said softly: "It was you who said you wanted to have some fresh faces to serve you. At first you wanted to send Ru'er away to other palaces. It's the Ai family. Thinking that Ru'er had grown up with you since childhood and was a stable and loyal person, that's why I refused to let you stay and kept Ru'er. As for the matter of Ru'er leaving the palace to get married, you have never been there. I mentioned it in front of the Ai family, but the Ai family doesn’t know that you have such a plan.”
Ji Changze showed confusion on his face.
"It is still possible to change to a fresh face, but sister Ru'er, why should I drive away sister Ru'er? Even if I don't want her to be around, according to my temperament, I must send her out of the palace to get married. .”
The Queen Mother didn't know about this, but she knew that Ru'er had a deep relationship with her youngest son. Speaking of which, the reason why she remembered a girl's name and had a good impression of her was because Emperor Yuan Chen had just ascended the throne. Eleven years old was still very young for an emperor. The Queen Mother listened to politics from behind the curtain and helped to hold on for several years.
It's just that she went to listen to politics behind the curtain, so the young prince naturally couldn't go with her. The Queen Mother waited until Emperor Yuan Chen was sixteen before returning to the harem. In the past five years, the young prince was mostly taken by the palace maids and eunuchs.
This is also the reason why the Queen Mother and Emperor Yuan Chen doted on him to the point of doting on him. After all, for Emperor Yuan Chen, the Queen Mother really ignored him too much when he was a child, and Ru'er was chosen to serve and play with him at that time. Little girl.
Later, there were several twists and turns in the court. In order to help Emperor Yuan Chen, the Queen Mother did not care about her younger son. At that time, King Hao was seriously ill, and Ru'er accompanied him throughout the whole process. He was close to Ru'er, and the Queen Mother could also I understand, otherwise he would not be allowed to have a prince call a palace maid sister.
Now Ji Changze began to wonder what was going on with him and why he didn't send Ru'er out of the palace. The Queen Mother also became confused.
Yes, it would be fine if she were replaced by another palace maid.
She knew very well how important Ru'er was to Nagasawa.
In the past six years, Nagasawa has not even mentioned a word about sending Ru'er out of the palace to get married. Logically speaking, the favored girls will be allowed out of the palace by their masters when they are around twenty-five years old, just because they are afraid that they will miss the most important thing. In your good years, you will never marry into a good family.
Seeing that the Queen Mother was also beginning to think deeply, Ji Changze continued: "And when I woke up, sister Ru'er was mopping the floor. I never let her do that kind of work. The material of the clothes she was wearing was also different. No, even the jewelry on my head doesn’t look good. Queen Mother, is it Sister Ru’er who made me unhappy? Why does Sister Ruer have to wipe the floor in my palace? Do you know, Queen Mother?”
The Queen Mother was not sure. She said with a little hesitation: "You have sent back all the nuns I sent to you to take care of you. You also said that you don't want people around me to follow you. I always feel that everything I do is being watched. …”
Ji Changze suddenly looked surprised.
"Surveillance? Why do I say that? Queen Mother, didn't you send people to your son to take care of him?"
Yes, the Queen Mother felt a pang in her heart when he said that. She recalled how uncomfortable she felt when her son sent the person back and said such cold words.
She was obviously full of maternal love and hoped to take better care of her son, but she was said to be under surveillance.
At that time, she asked angrily, and her younger son asked in a mocking tone why he fell into the water if she was taking care of her.
His youngest son fell into the water in his palace and was dying and could not be saved. This has always been a pain in the heart of the Queen Mother. During that time, she had nightmares every night, dreaming that her child was struggling in the water, and finally he was unable to sink to the surface. .
It can be said that after her youngest son said those words, the Queen Mother felt uncomfortable for a long time, and in the end she could only withdraw the person silently.
He guessed that although Nagasawa had an arrogant temper, he had never treated him like this. Maybe those nuns made him unhappy, and he let them out of the palace directly without asking them to stay in his palace to serve them.
Although it was already a thing of the past, remembering how chilled she felt after Nagasawa said those words, the Queen Mother could not help showing a bit of sadness on her face.
She suppressed her sadness and briefly said what Ji Changze had said.
"unacceptable!"
The memory returned to the nine-year-old young prince slamming the table angrily, with a look of anger on his face mixed with a hint of disbelief: "I would actually talk to my mother like this? What was I thinking at the time? Did I get wet? ?”
He pondered for two seconds, as if recalling something, and suddenly stood up and grabbed the Queen Mother's hand: "Mother, don't listen to the nonsense I said at that time. The incident of falling into the water was clearly caused by me who asked people to retreat and secretly He ran out through the window."
The Queen Mother's eyes turned red inexplicably when she saw her youngest son who was worried and worried that she would be sad.
"Nagaze, my mother knows that you definitely didn't mean to say that. Perhaps those nuns made you angry. You are young after all, so you couldn't help but express your anger."
"But Aunt Zhang and the others have always been considerate to me. I am very happy that they are taking care of me. What did they do to make me angry? Have you asked them, Queen Mother?"
The Queen Mother naturally asked.
It's just that the nuns didn't know anything about it, they just said that they were acting the same as before, but King Hao, who used to thank them for taking care of them, suddenly seemed to be tired of them and didn't want to listen to them anymore.
While the two were talking, the sound of saluting suddenly came from outside.
Before the salute could even be heard, Emperor Yuan Chen strode in, his brows slightly furrowed, his face full of worry, and he opened the curtain himself and walked in.
"Mother and my sons heard that something happened to Changze and called the imperial doctor..."
As soon as he came in, he saw his younger brother standing there, smiling heartlessly at him, and it didn't look like anything was wrong.
Emperor Yuan Chen breathed a sigh of relief and felt relieved.
Ji Changze called him with a smile on his face: "Brother Emperor, you look so majestic now. You even have a beard. It's better not to keep it. A beard doesn't look as good as if you don't have a beard."
Emperor Yuanchen; "?"
He subconsciously touched his beard; "What's wrong with you? Haven't I had this beard for more than three years?"
The Queen Mother asked him to come and sit down, and told him the news that her youngest son had lost his memory for six years and was nine years old again.
When Emperor Yuan Chen heard that there was still such a strange disease, he immediately called the imperial doctor.
"Okay, the imperial doctor has looked at it. There is nothing wrong with Nagasawa. He just lost the memory of the past six years for some reason. There is no problem for the time being."
"I have lost six years of memory, how can I still be unimpeded? I still decree that a famous doctor will be found to treat Nagasawa properly."
"Okay, brother, I'm not in a hurry. Why are you so anxious? I forgot to ask my mother just now, brother, how many nieces and nephews have you given me in the past six years? Are they cute or well-behaved? What's your name? The second princess must be twelve years old this year, have you started looking for her as a consort?"
Emperor Yuan Chen, who was originally full of worries, was wiped out by his brother's inappropriate gossip. He reached out and tapped his brother's forehead in annoyance: "You are really not worried at all. What if it is really some strange disease? Now It’s just that I don’t have the memory, but if I become a fool, I’ll see if you’ll be happy or not.”
Deep down, he was actually a little happy that his brother was so close to him.
As his younger brother grew older, there seemed to be a layer of separation between the brothers. He no longer teased his brother as unscrupulously as before, and sneaked away to eat roast chicken when he was not in a good mood. Look at the moon and enjoy whether there is a fairy palace and Chang'e on the moon.
There is only a sense of unfamiliarity between the brothers.
Even sometimes, Emperor Yuan Chen felt uncomfortably that his younger brother was rejecting him.
He would have thought at that time that maybe it was like this when he grew up, and the friendship between brothers gradually faded away.
Unexpectedly, I can see my brother back to his original appearance again.
For a moment, Emperor Yuanchen even had the idea of "It would be good if Nagasawa stayed like this" in his heart, but he quickly suppressed it.
It's okay for my younger brother to be rebellious, but what if the disease is not cured and there are weird sequelae in the future
He answered: "In the past six years, five more princes and three princesses have been born in the palace. I am looking at the candidates for the second princess's consort. I asked you to help choose them before, but you still thought it was troublesome."
Generally, princesses wait until they are eighteen to twenty years old before getting married, and when they are eleven or twelve years old, the palace will start to select candidates for their consorts.
After the selection is made, I will naturally send someone to say hello and tell the family that I have taken a liking to your son and want him to be my son-in-law. You'd better teach him well and don't let him grow up to be weird. Looks like, if you want to be straight, you can't have weird women around you.
Yes, in feudal society, the emperor was so unreasonable.
I can have a harem of three thousand beauties, but my son-in-law can only have a princess.
If there are other women, I don't mind changing the princess's consort. As for the original consort, at best, he will no longer be taken seriously, at worst, he will be directly exiled or his house will be confiscated.
Of course, in order to achieve the above conditions, the emperor who is the father must have real power. Emperor Yuanchen is such a powerful emperor. He naturally does not mind supporting his daughters for several princesses.
Ji Changze was quite shocked: "I actually find it troublesome? I have always loved the second princess as my own daughter. How could I find it troublesome??"
Emperor Yuan Chen glanced at his brother speechlessly.
"You are only three years older than the second princess. You are more of a daughter than a playmate."
Ji Changze still looked shocked.
"Brother Emperor, what happened to me in the past few years? Why did I do these things?"
Emperor Yuan Chen didn’t know either.
"You are at this age when you think the most. Maybe you can wait until you grow up."
Commonly known as the second disease.
Ji Changze suddenly covered his stomach: "Ah, I just had the imperial doctor look at me for a long time, and I'm already hungry. Mother, brother, let's have a meal first. I want to eat Pisces today."
The Queen Mother looked stunned: "You want to eat Lian Pisces, but don't you dislike the trouble of fish bones and refuse to eat fish?"
As soon as she finished speaking, she remembered.
The person in front of me is a nine-year-old son, not a fifteen-year-old.
Before Nagasawa was nine years old, he really liked eating fish.
"Why are fish bones so troublesome? Aren't the fishes I eat all served with their bones removed?"
As soon as Ji Changze said these words, the Queen Mother paused slightly.
Yes, every time Nagaze eats fish, his servants carefully pick out the thorns to make sure they won't pierce King Hao before presenting them to him.
Before Nagasawa was six years old, he always thought that fish had no spines.
Ji Changze saw that the Queen Mother's eyes were contemplative and he didn't know what she was thinking, so he didn't give any further hints.
The time traveler is a modern person and has not inherited the memory of the young prince. When he sees the fish, he feels troublesome and does not want to eat it. He never expected that the prince in the feudal society never had to worry about finding faults when eating fish.
If he wanted to, he could lie in bed for twelve hours a day and have people take care of him, including eating, drinking, and defecating.
That's enough of a hint.
In fact, Ji Changze can now directly say that he feels like someone is fighting for his body in his body. His actions are as fierce as a tiger's, and the time traveler cannot argue.
But if you say this, you will inevitably have to say that he is the real King Hao.
Ji Changze is usually shameless and shameless, his face is thicker than a city wall, but he can deceive people unscrupulously, and he can also imitate the real young prince like he is now.
But facing a truly innocent soul, he was really a bit pretentious. He didn't want to lie to his mother and brother that he was King Hao in front of his mother and brother who loved the young prince.
Once said, it seems to have really obliterated the existence of King Hao.
He can pretend to be King Hao, or he can fulfill his wish for him, making his relatives think that King Hao has never left, but he cannot say that he is King Hao himself.
It seems that if I say it, it will change from shameless to shameless and shameless.
Quite hypocritical.
Ji Changze finished eating the hand-picked fish, wiped his mouth with a handkerchief, and was leaning back on the chair to rest with a contented look when he suddenly took a sniff.
"Are the peach blossoms blooming outside? I seem to smell the fragrance of peach blossoms."
Emperor Yuan Chen listened and explained: "How could there be peach blossoms in the palace? It's not peach blossoms. I left the palace before. I went to the peach forest at that time. Maybe I got some smell on my body."
Ji Changze immediately looked at him accusingly: "Brother, have you forgotten that my mother broke out in rash when she smelled the smell of peach blossoms? When I came back from the peach forest, I didn't even wash up properly before coming to see my mother."
Emperor Yuan Chen hadn't heard his younger brother talking to him like this for a long time. He was neither big nor small, regardless of superiority or inferiority, but he felt very comfortable listening to it.
Before he ascended the throne, the struggle in the harem made life very difficult for him and his mother. It was precisely because of this that Emperor Yuan Chen longed for family affection even more. He never acted like an emperor towards his only biological brother. He never acted like an emperor. It’s about giving stars to stars, and giving moon to moon.
Nagasawa has always been very cooperative, never caring about his status as emperor, and giving him the family affection he wanted. Every time the two brothers quarreled, seeing this boy smiling as if he was getting an advantage, Emperor Yuanchen felt deep in his heart. Relaxation.
But I don’t know since when, Nagasawa has never done this to him again.
He bows when he meets someone and never speaks inappropriately.
Although this is the situation that should really exist, Emperor Yuan Chen actually felt very uncomfortable.
Now that it happened again, his heart felt light and a smile appeared on his lips.
"How could I not remember that I had already bathed and changed clothes when I returned to the palace? Don't worry, the imperial doctor once said that just a small amount of fragrance is fine. The queen mother will only develop rash if she is in the same room with Peach Blossom."
Ji Changze then gave up and turned around to flatter the Queen Mother who was smiling at the quarrel between their brothers: "Look, Queen Mother, I am still thinking of you. I never go out of the palace to wander around. I always stay with you in the palace." Mother."
The Queen Mother had not seen this happy scene for a long time. She looked at the two of them with a kind and contented smile: "Okay, the Ai family knows that Nagasawa is the most well-behaved. It's not like your imperial brother who often goes out to play in the palace and doesn't even know who his mother is. Order something and come back. If Nagasawa goes out, he will definitely be able to bring a bunch of treasures to the queen mother."
Emperor Yuan Chen smiled helplessly, not angry at all, but actually very happy in his heart.
My brother is only nine years old, why is he so angry
He asked someone to pour water to Ji Changze: "Okay, drink your water quickly."
Ji Changze took a sip, then suddenly pursed his lips and took another sip, frowning slightly: "This is not the mountain spring water I often drink."
The eunuch waiting on the side quickly stood up and answered cautiously: "Your Highness, have you forgotten? You said before that you didn't like drinking this mountain spring water because you thought it had a strong taste, so you specifically ordered your servant to change it."
"Hasn't it always smelled strong? I've never liked it either. It's just that I was in poor health when I was a child. Didn't my mother specially find the mountain spring water near the temple for me, hoping to let me be tainted with Buddha nature? Have you been drinking?"
Ji Changze put down the water with a strange look on his face.
"It's weird, I'm so weird, my temper has changed."
After he said this, he seemed not to take it seriously and continued to pick up his chopsticks and start picking food on the table.
After hearing this, Emperor Yuan Chen felt his heart tremble slightly.
He glanced at his brother hesitantly, his eyes hesitant, but he didn't say anything.
After the enjoyable meal, Ji Changze yawned, his face showing sleepiness again.
"I'm so sleepy, Queen Mother. I'll just sleep in your palace for a while. I'll just eat at your place in the evening. Remember to order some dishes that my son likes."
After he finished speaking, he yawned profusely and walked towards the inner hall without any rules.
But there were no rules, but he was exactly like the King Hao the Queen Mother and the Emperor had watched growing up.
They have always been so pampered towards Ji Changze that they wish they could go to heaven. It would be strange if he had rules.
The emperor hesitated and looked at the Queen Mother.
King Hao's temperament changed before, and it can be said that his temperament changed drastically because of his serious illness.
But when the truly familiar King Hao appeared in front of them, both the emperor and the queen mother noticed something.
The former King Hao liked Ru'er and treated Ru'er as if he were his own sister.
The former King Hao liked to eat fish, and fish must be included in almost every meal of the day.
The previous King Hao had a temperament that liked to act coquettishly, and he had never behaved well.
What about King Hao later
He was no longer close to the Emperor and the Queen Mother, and he lost the affection towards Ru'er as before. He said that he didn't want to eat fish because fish bones were troublesome, but King Hao had never seen any fish with fish bones since he was a child.
By this time, it felt like it was already in front of our eyes, but it was so unbelievable.
Can a serious illness really change a person's temperament to this point and even forget that there are no fish bones in the fish
His temperament has changed, his taste has changed, and even his common sense has changed
No one knows what the emperor and the queen mother said.
In the inner hall over there, the time traveler opened his eyes and found that he was actually in the Queen Mother's palace.
What's going on? Wasn't he letting someone beat his legs before
He stood up and looked around with a frown.
As for the emperor and the queen mother, someone quickly replied that the prince had woken up and seemed to have recovered his memory.
However, he forgot about the time when he lost his memory and became the prince when he was nine years old.
