The county magistrate thought it made sense and put the matter aside for the time being.
But after returning home, he quietly went to the ancestral temple and burned a few incense sticks to his ancestors.
That night.
It gets dark early in the mountains. They had just returned and had dinner when it was completely dark.
Wei Xun squatted on the ground, gently rubbing Ling Qingwan's ankle with his hands, using very gentle force, for fear of hurting her.
Mingyue thought she was the only one in Ling Qingwan's room, so she rushed in rashly and happened to see the scene. She turned her back quickly and didn't dare to look at it again.
It is a rare and wonderful sight to see the Seventh Prince personally washing and massaging a girl's feet.
Ling Qingwan also felt embarrassed and quickly retracted her foot. Wei Xun did not stop her. He stood up, took down the clean handkerchief hanging next to him, and wiped his hands.
"It's okay, Mingyue." Ling Qingwan was very embarrassed.
Mingyue then turned around again.
"I just came to tell you, young lady, that the young master has finished his meal and gone to bed. Please rest assured, young lady."
"That's good." Ling Qing breathed a sigh of relief.
Ling Xiao's mood had calmed down a bit, but after returning to the inn, he started to make a scene again. Ren Songtian and the others talked their mouths out, insisting on taking Liu'er back to Taohua Town.
Later, Hong Chang pressed Ling Xiao's acupoints and made him fall asleep, and only then did he calm down.
Wei Xun knew that Ling Qingwan was sad. After Mingyue left the room, he stayed with Ling Qingwan for a while.
"Ling Xiao and I grew up together, and I know his personality. Although he is stubborn, he really cares about you. Just take care of him slowly, and he will soon remember the past." Wei Xun comforted Ling Xiao softly.
"Besides, he has been with General Shen all the time, and his body has become very strong. It's just amnesia. Hong Chang also said that it is not untreatable. Be good, don't worry."
Wei Xun patted Ling Qingwan's shoulder gently.
With Wei Xun around, Ling Qingwan felt much more at ease.
"That's right. My brother has experienced such a big change. It's a blessing to be alive." Ling Qingwan forced a smile.
For more than a month, everyone felt that there was little hope, and Ling Qingwan almost gave in several times, thinking that she had to find Ling Xiao, whether alive or dead. But it turned out that Ling Xiao was still alive.
Since he could beat six or seven people including Song Tian by himself, he must be fine.
"I have something else to tell you." Wei Xun said to Ling Qingwan.
Later, he told Ling Qingwan that he had found the person who was chasing Ling Xiao.
"It's indeed him." Ling Qingwan clenched her hands into fists.
She knew that Ye Yun had been lurking in the Ling Mansion for many years and then went to great lengths to escape, and it was definitely not just a matter of trying to save his life.
Ye Yun's ambition has always been to be in the court. Ling Qingwan, who had experienced this in her previous life, knew this best.
Wei Xun knew that what he should do most at this moment was not to say something comforting, but to stay with Ling Qingwan. So, Wei Xun stayed there until Ling Qingwan fell asleep, and then he left.
The next day, Ling Qingwan went to Liu'er's room.
Today she got up early and listened to Luluo saying that Huzi prepared breakfast for everyone, and finally went to Liu'er's room. Liu'er must have woken up by now.
Ling Qingwan knocked on the door, and a girl's voice came from inside the room. It was Liu'er.
"It's me." Ling Qingwan responded.
Huzi quickly stood up and opened the door. At this time, Liu'er also stood up.
Facing this pretty and gentle woman, Liu'er seemed particularly embarrassed.
"Liu'er, don't be afraid. The young lady is a very nice person." Hu Zi smiled and tried to ease the atmosphere for the two of them.
Ling Qingwan had lived in Huzi's house for a few days before, and was very familiar with Huzi. After hearing his words, Liu'er relaxed a little.
"Miss." Liu'er followed Hu Zi and called Ling Qingwan.
"You and I are about the same age, just call me by my name, no need to be polite." Ling Qingwan walked to the table and sat down. "My name is Ling Qingwan, and the man you saved, called Awan, is my brother, Ling Xiao."
Ling Qingwan introduced herself to Liu'er in a gentle voice.
"I know all this. Brother Huzi told me." Liu'er told Ling Qingwan.
"We searched for more than a month before we found my brother. We didn't expect that he would have lost his memory now. I've been busy for so long, and I only have time to say thank you today." Ling Qingwan said sincerely. "Thank you so much."
Ling Xiao was originally injured, and it was only because of Liu'er's careful care that Ling Xiao was able to survive. Otherwise, a person who was being hunted and had lost his memory would be very likely to be in danger if the group of people caught up with him again, or if Ling Xiao wandered in the mountains and forests by himself.
Ling Qingwan was really grateful to Liu'er.
"It's okay, it's okay." Liu Er waved her hand. "I saved Master Ling Xiao just because I couldn't bear to see him get hurt. In that situation, anyone would help."
"Yes, our Liu'er is kind-hearted. If she sees someone in danger, she will definitely help." Hu Zi echoed beside him. As he spoke, all he could see was Liu'er.
"If you and my brother... we will definitely take responsibility." Ling Qingwan didn't know what to say.
After all, they were a single man and a single woman. If they really had feelings for each other, they couldn't just abandon Liu'er. To Ling Xiao, the entire Ling Mansion, and the General's Mansion, Liu'er was their benefactor.
"Why do you say that, young lady!" Liu'er's cheeks flushed immediately, revealing an anxious expression. "I treat Master Ling Xiao as a relative, nothing else. I have someone in my heart."
After saying that, Liu'er looked at Hu Zi who was standing beside her.
Although Liu'er was restraining herself, Ling Qingwan could still see the love in her eyes.
In this way, Ling Qingwan felt relieved.
If Liu'er and Ling Xiao were together, then Hu Zi and An Yi would really suffer an unexpected disaster.
After chatting with Liu'er, Ling Qingwan came out and happened to run into Wei Xun, and they went to Ling Xiao's room together.
After a night, Ling Xiao should be less resistant to them. Talking to him about the past now would be more effective.
As a result, when Hong Chang opened Ling Xiao's acupoints, Ling Xiao started yelling again.
"Since you said you were not here to arrest me, why did you tie me up and use witchcraft to knock me unconscious?"
"… "
Wei Xun felt that Ling Xiao did not suffer from amnesia, but rather a decrease in intelligence.
"Think about what happened yesterday. If we didn't arrest you, would we let you beat up our people and cause the restaurant to lose business?"
Ling Qingwan felt sorry for Ling Xiao, but Wei Xun had the heart to blame him. Wei Xun was even more angry when he thought of Ling Xiao pushing Ling Qingwan away, causing Ling Qingwan to sprain her leg.
"If you didn't come to me for no reason and say some inexplicable things, would I think you were bad people? If it were you, you were eating and suddenly someone came and grabbed you, called you master, and wanted to take you back, and you didn't even know him, would you fight him?" Ling Xiao was not convinced and immediately argued with Wei Xun.
