I married the crippled queen and became the most favored queen in the capital

The main hall of Prince Yan's Palace

The emperor and the queen were sitting in the main hall, Leng Yiyan was standing there with a frown on his face. After Luo Nianxi signaled everyone to leave, she stepped forward to explain.

"Father, Mother, please don't blame him for being rude. He really... really doesn't remember you."

"what?"

Hearing this, the emperor's face suddenly became furious, and he immediately asked loudly,

"What do you mean? He returned to the capital, and it would have been fine if he didn't come to the palace to pay his respects, but when he saw us, he still acted like a stranger. What's wrong with him?"

"Father, don't worry. Yan'er fell from the top of the cliff and injured his brain. He lost his previous memories. So...after returning to the capital, I was unable to come to the palace to pay my respects to you two immediately. Please forgive me."

Hearing this, Queen Jiang stood up from her seat, walked slowly to him, raised her hand to touch his face, but he dodged her.

"Yan'er, you don't even recognize your mother? I am your mother!"

Leng Yiyan turned his head and glanced at Luo Nianxi. When he saw her nod, he took two steps back and clasped his fists, saying:

"Mother, I'm sorry that I can't recognize you in time."

The queen breathed a sigh of relief and nodded with satisfaction.

"Forget it, as long as you can come back safely, you don't have to remember it. Your memory will be restored sooner or later, and my Yan'er's memory will be restored sooner or later."

The emperor sighed somewhat sadly.

"Yan'er, your brothers are now fighting for the position of crown prince. I am afraid that they will kill each other. I was thinking that when you come back, I will legitimately make you the crown prince. But who could have thought... Alas!"

At this point, the emperor shook his head and sighed, "Let's put this matter aside for now. Later, I will order someone to hold a celebration banquet for you and the soldiers who went with you. At that time, I will also give you rewards."

Seeing the emperor's worried look, Leng Yiyan's brows furrowed even more tightly.

It seems that what Luo Nianxi said was true. There really is someone in the court vying for the position of crown prince.

However, he doesn't remember anything now, and he doesn't dare to accept the position of crown prince.

Let’s wait until he recovers his memory!

When people heard that Prince Yan had returned, some people in the capital were happy, while others were worried.

The next morning, there was an endless stream of people coming to Prince Yan's mansion to express their condolences.

Leng Yiheng was feeling uneasy in his Prince Heng's Mansion. Leng Chen was sitting in the hall. Although he pretended to be calm, his eyes betrayed him.

He was very flustered at this moment.

"Seventh Uncle, what should we do? What if Leng Yiyan tells Father what we did? Father will definitely blame us."

Leng Chen's eyes flashed with anger, and he said hatefully:

"He was lucky to come back alive this time, but I think he should not have told the emperor about this yesterday, otherwise the emperor would have come to arrest him by now."

"We almost killed him, how could he not complain to Father? How is that possible?"

"Let's go, let's go to Prince Yan's Mansion to see him."

Leng Yiheng immediately shook his head vigorously.

"I won't go. I'm scared."

"What are you afraid of? He may not know that we did it. Everyone knows that we fought side by side on the same battlefield for many years. Now that he is back, if we don't go and take a look, won't it make people more suspicious?"

"But...but what if he attacks? My Kung Fu is far inferior to his!"

"You're a coward. There's not only Leng Yiyan in the court, but also Leng Yifei and Leng Yixing. If you want to become the crown prince, you have to deal with more than just him. If you're a coward now, how are you going to inherit the throne in the future?"

Leng Yiheng hesitated for a while and said worriedly:

"Seventh Uncle, otherwise... otherwise I should just stay calm and be my prince. I think the way it is now is good."

"waste."

Leng Chen's face suddenly darkened.

"You are a prince after all. According to the order of succession, the eldest prince has been deposed, and you, the second prince, should inherit the throne. But the emperor has never considered you. If you don't fight for it yourself, when Leng Yiyan or Leng Yifei becomes emperor, you may not even be able to be your prince."

Leng Yiheng was skeptical about his seventh uncle's words, but who wouldn't want to try to sit on the throne?

Thinking of this, he made up his mind.

"Okay, I'll follow Uncle Seven's instructions on everything."

As soon as he finished speaking, he and Leng Chen went out one after another, got on the carriage, and headed straight for Prince Yan's Mansion.

Leng Yiyan returned safely, but the most annoyed one was Leng Yifei.

He had already planned that once Leng Yiyan died, he would ask the ministers in the court to report to his father and ask him to be the crown prince of Pingyang.

Now, Leng Yiyan is back. He is the queen's eldest son. Logically speaking, the position of crown prince belongs to him.

But he had prepared carefully over the years, how could he give up so easily?

"Your Majesty..."

After entering the room, Butler Deng bowed.

"I heard that the Seventh Prince and Prince Heng went to Prince Yan's mansion to visit. Do you want to go and take a look?"

"Don't go."

He refused unhappily.

"Why should I watch him? He has a bitter face all day long. I have no interest in watching him."

"Your Highness, only when you know yourself and your enemy can you win every battle. You have to go and see. No matter what, Prince Yan has returned safely. The Emperor went to visit him last night. It would be unreasonable for you not to go and take a look."

A sharp look flashed across Leng Yifei's eyes, and then he snorted with disdain.

"Okay, then go ahead. Bring along a generous gift and I will go to welcome him."

There was disgust and resentment in his words.

Prince Yan's Mansion

The Seventh Prince, the Eighth Prince, Leng Yiheng, Leng Yifei, Leng Yixing, these important figures in the court came to Prince Yan's Mansion at the same time, which made Luo Nianxi a little nervous. However, she did not let Leng Yiyan come out to meet them, but lied that he was injured and needed to stay in bed to rest, and it was temporarily inconvenient for him to meet guests.

Anyway, the emperor and the queen already knew about his situation and told her not to let anyone else know that he had lost his memory.

Perhaps, the emperor is also afraid that these people will take this opportunity to bully him!

Everyone was sitting in the main hall, and Leng Chen was the first to slam the table in dissatisfaction.

"This is outrageous. There are so many of us here to see him, but he just leaves us here? What's going on?"

Leng Jin waved his hand and said with a smile:

"Seventh brother, why are you so impatient? As long as we know Yan'er is safe, we should be happy for him even if he doesn't come out to see us for a year."

"Humph! Princess Yan is a strange person. This time, she brought back a man from Southern Xinjiang in such a short time, and she dared not show him to the public. I suspect that the man she brought back was not Yan'er at all. Maybe she found someone to disguise him."
