At this time, the old prince was already resting. However, when he heard that his grandson had come to visit late at night, he guessed that something must have happened. He quickly asked his subordinates to change their clothes and then summoned Rong Zhan into his room.
The old prince put on his coat and sat by the bed. When he saw the worried Rong Zhan, he could not help but feel a little uneasy. “Zhan’er, is there something urgent for you to visit so late at night?”
Rong Zhan nodded and said seriously to the old prince, “Grandfather, the poison in my body has been cured.”
The old prince, who was originally nervous, was stunned when he heard this. Then, he smiled happily and said, “Alright! Isn’t this a good thing? Since you’re here to say such a good thing, why do you have to put on such a serious expression? I thought something bad had happened.”
However, after listening to the old prince’s words, Rong Zhan’s serious expression did not change at all. The aura around him was still cold as he slowly said, “Grandfather, you know that after 1 was poisoned, my memory became a little chaotic. I don’t remember anything that happened before you brought me back, right?”
“Yes. If you hadn’t joined the army that day and I hadn’t seen the token on your body, I wouldn’t have known that you were my grandson who I had lost for many years. However, you were already poisoned at that time. I tried my best to ask a famous doctor to treat you. In the end, I didn’t expect that after you woke up, your memory would be a mess and you would forget all the things that happened before you joined the army.” When the old prince said this, his eyes could not help but tremble. A bold idea also appeared in his mind. “Looking at you, do you remember what happened before you joined the army?”
Seeing Rong Zhan nod, the old prince was overjoyed. “This is a good thing. Why do you look so unhappy? Quickly tell Grandfather, what kind of life did you lead in the past?”
“Grandfather, before I joined the army, I lived in a small village. I followed my mother’s last wish and always wore the human skin mask she prepared for me. And most importantly, when I was in that small mountain village, I was already married,” Rong Zhan said solemnly.
The smile on the old prince’s face disappeared in an instant. He looked at Rong Zhan in surprise and his face could not help but turn pale. “You were married? Who is that woman?”
“It’s Qingxue. Grandfather, 1 lived in Dafu Village back then. I was just an ordinary hunter. I only wanted to live my life peacefully, so I married a wife early on. That wife was Qingxue. It was because I wanted to give her a better life after spending the rest of my life with her that I wanted to join the army. In the end, I never expected that fate would play tricks on people and things would develop to this extent.” When Rong Zhan said this, he could not hide the guilt on his face. His heart felt like it was being squeezed by a big hand, and he was so heartbroken that he could not breathe.
He had already learned from Qingxue how she had endured all these years. At that time, the Gu family was eyeing her like a tiger, and even lowly servants could climb over her head. Not to mention, she was a weak woman who had to bring up three children. If she had not learned medicine, her life would have been even more miserable. It was even more impossible for her to have the opportunity to cure the plague and come to Jing City..
