Chapter 59 (Chapter 59)(1/2)
Husband?
As soon as Linglong asked this question, the servants waiting outside were all shocked.
The servants waiting in the courtyard were surprised. They didn't expect that not only did their Highness suddenly send a woman, but this woman actually asked about her husband?
Since he asked his husband, it was either that his highness had a private marriage with a young lady from another family, or that his highness had brought a lady from another family.
No matter which one it is, it is a shocking move, and these slaves are naturally surprised.
As for the surprise of the servants accompanying the carriage, they did not expect that Miss Shen Er could still remember her husband.
Apart from His Majesty, who else is her husband? Didn't His Majesty say that after taking out the Gu, she would forget the past? How could she still remember His Majesty?
The servants secretly felt troubled and couldn't think of the right words for a moment, fearing that Linglong would really remember them all and all of them would become mute.
But Linglong herself got an even worse headache after asking this question.
She shook her head violently and frowned.
When the servant waiting in the courtyard saw this, he hurriedly and wisely stepped forward to help her out of the carriage, and said: "Madam, you must be tired after traveling and traveling. Your bedroom has been taken care of, so why not go back to the bedroom to rest first? ."
Linglong's head was dizzy, so she let this servant help her down and walked into the courtyard.
The servants on the carriage followed closely behind, looking at each other in confusion.
If Miss Shen remembered everything in the past, how could she be so obedient and let the man she thought was her "husband" welcome her into a strange world?
Qi Mo's spies knew how ugly the quarrel between Miss Shen and His Majesty was, and thought that if she really remembered the past, even if she was unwell, she would not react like this.
With this thought in mind, the servant followed Linglong into the bedroom in the courtyard and asked tentatively: "Madam, your head is feeling better. The doctor said that you dropped your head and may forget things. Madam, are you okay now?" What is it that I feel like I remember vaguely?"
The servant asked, Linglong frowned and thought for a while, her head started to hurt even more.
She clenched her fists and hit her head. She endured her headache and thought hard, but she always felt as if there were a lot of empty spaces in her mind.
She clearly remembered that she was married, and she and her husband were very affectionate, but she could not remember the scene when she got married. She clearly remembered that her husband was her most happy husband, but she could not remember her husband. She clearly remembered her name and surname. The husband she married was very good-looking, with exceptionally handsome features and a gentle and elegant look. However, she could only see a very blurry face in her mind, and she could not see it clearly.
"I seem to have forgotten something." Linglong raised her eyes to look at the servant who asked her question, with a dazed look in her eyes.
As soon as she said this, the servants breathed a sigh of relief.
"Madam, what have you forgotten?" the servant continued to test.
Linglong looked at the servant asking questions and felt a little defensive for no reason.
But she still replied truthfully: "I don't really remember my husband."
As soon as these words came out, the hearts of these servants suddenly fell.
It's fine if you don't remember, it's even better if you don't remember.
The servant was secretly happy in his heart, and it was inevitable that there was some unconcealed joy on his face.
Linglong had lost some memories and was already sensitive. When she saw the servant's faintly happy expression, she became even more defensive.
"Where is Qiu Shui? Why haven't I seen her?" Linglong subconsciously clenched her palms, feeling extremely wary and anxious to find someone familiar and close to her.
Qiu Shui? The servants looked at each other, and for a moment they didn't remember who this person was.
No matter how meticulous Qi Mo's spies were, they couldn't even bother to remember the name of a maid who had been sent back to the Marquis of Ning'an Mansion. Naturally, they didn't know Qiu Shui.
Seeing their appearance, Linglong became more and more suspicious, and she even had the idea of getting up and leaving this strange place.
Fortunately, a servant guessed that Qiushui must be one of Shen Linglong's maids, and he wisely replied: "Are you talking about your former maid?"
After the words fell, Linglong paused in getting up.
"She's my maid. Why did you say she was my former maid? Qiushui, wasn't she always by my side?" Linglong asked in confusion.
After hearing this, the servant secretly rejoiced that he had guessed correctly, and hurriedly replied: "Madam, you have forgotten that Miss Qiu Shui is already married. Now she is in her husband's house in the capital, and she is no longer by Madam's side?"
Marry? Or marry in the capital? How is that possible? She has no memory at all.
Linglong frowned, still hesitant in her heart.
She pursed her lips, looked at her completely unfamiliar inner room, and said, "Then where is this? Is it my home? Why do I have no impression at all?"
"Of course it's Madam's home, but this is the home we recently moved to. Madam and husband originally lived in the capital, and they just moved here these two days. It was on the way to move that Madam was injured, so she
I forgot something." The servant hurriedly replied.
Linglong listened to the servant's words and was doubtful. She wrung her fingers and asked, "What about your husband? I was injured. Why didn't he come to see me or stay with me to recover? Instead, he left me here?"
The servant listened to Linglong ask "husband", and vaguely felt that this question seemed to deceive Miss Shen Er.
She breathed a sigh of relief and replied: "Madam, I don't know. The husband has other important matters, so it is inconvenient to come to see the madam. He will come after he is done with the matter. Madam will wait a while."
Listening to this servant's words, Linglong's doubts became more and more serious.
Something is wrong, something is really wrong.
Not to mention that she had never been to the capital in her memory, let alone lived in the capital. The servant said that her husband had something important to do so he did not come to visit her. Linglong felt that something was wrong.
She lost her memory of all important matters, and he didn't even come to see her.
The more Linglong thought about it, the more she realized something was wrong. She managed to calm down, pretended to have a headache, and stopped asking questions.
She rubbed her forehead and said, "I have a terrible headache. I want to take a rest and have a good sleep. You all should go out."
Seeing that Linglong stopped asking any more questions, these servants thought that Linglong really believed what they said. They completely let go of their worries, resigned and stayed outside, and even closed the door for Linglong before leaving.
As for Linglong, after all the palace people had gone out, she put down her hand pretending to be rubbing her head, walked to the door quietly, and quietly listened to what was going on outside.
The people guarding outside include the servants waiting in the courtyard, as well as the followers who came along the carriage.
In the room just now, although both groups of servants were there, the ones who answered were always the servants who came with the car. The servants in the courtyard didn't say a word and only listened to the words of Linglong and the servants who came with the car.
People asked confused questions.
Therefore, as soon as he came out of the inner room, the servant lowered his voice curiously and asked the servant: "What did you mean by what you said to that girl just now? Why did you say it in such a hazy way that people were confused and couldn't understand it.
What is that girl’s identity?”
"Hush, if you talk too much, your life will be ruined!" The servant hurriedly signaled the slave to be silent.
In the inner room, Linglong put her ear to the door and heard the servant's last words.
What is the identity of that girl?
As soon as he heard these words, there was nothing Linglong didn't understand.
If I were really the "Madam" these slaves called me, how could they ask her about her identity?
Linglong frowned and quietly left the door and went into the inner room.
She sat on the couch, staring at the closed door, banging her head, but she couldn't remember why she came to this place, or why she fell into the hands of these people.
Throughout the day, Linglong pretended to believe those people's words, but she was always on guard in her heart, tapping her head from time to time, trying to remember the memories she had forgotten.
But no matter how hard she tried to recall it, there was always a big blank in her mind. No matter how hard she tried, she still couldn't remember it.
Time passed little by little, and the sky turned completely dark. Linglong was in a completely unfamiliar environment, could not remember many things, and was getting more and more panicked.
She didn't know where this place was, so she felt panic and fear in her heart.
Linglong read a lot of story books when she was a child. She always liked to write in the story books about the story of a decent girl being sold into Fireworks Alley by gangsters. Now, the people in this courtyard don't look evil, but Linglong can't believe it.
The person who lied to me would not be a good person, and he really wouldn’t dare to stay here.
If she really wanted to stay here, Linglong was afraid that these people were prostitutes who bought and sold women, and she was even more afraid that these people would be her husband's enemies and would tie her up to threaten her husband.
I don't know why, but she obviously doesn't remember many memories about her husband, but subconsciously she always feels that someone will kidnap her and use her to threaten her husband.
The night has fallen for a long time, and all the lights in the courtyard have been extinguished.
Linglong was worried about this matter, tossing and turning, unable to sleep.
Today there are neither stars nor bright moon, it is pitch black.
Linglong looked at the dark night outside the window, and her stomach growled hungry.
She glanced down at her belly, a bright light flashed in her mind, and she suddenly thought of a way to escape from here, and got up from the bed.
Linglong didn't take off her hairpin dress tonight, so she didn't need to redress or wash herself after getting up, so she went to the lamp and lit the lamp again.
When the lamp was turned on, the servant who was keeping watch outside reacted and asked, "Why is Madam up? But what are your orders?"
Linglong coughed lightly and said outside: "I'm hungry, please bring me a midnight snack."
She was already wary of the people in this realm, so she didn't taste a bite of today's meal due to her lack of appetite.
It's true that I'm hungry, but it's false that I want to have a midnight snack.
However, the servant who was keeping watch outside knew that she had not eaten today, but did not suspect that she wanted to have a midnight snack.
The servant outside responded: "Okay, I'll tell the cook to make it and bring it over."
Hearing this, Linglong's face overflowed with joy. She looked around the room and immediately moved a wooden bench and desk back into the inner room.
She first placed the desk behind the bed tent, right opposite the bed. When people came to the desk, their backs would be facing the bed.
Immediately afterwards, she went to the bed in the inner room and hid the wooden stool under the quilt. She also got into the quilt again with her clothes on, and bent her legs to cover the wooden stool under the quilt.
After a while, the cook's footsteps sounded.
