‘That’s the reason?’

Yu Yunxi lowered her gaze. Her expression was extremely complicated. After a moment, she asked in a muffled voice, “Is there really no way to break the curse?”

Yu Yunxi really wanted to remember her past.

Meng Xia shook her head. “Eldest Princess, there’s really no way.”

Back then, Empress Emerita Xiao had never regained memories, and there was no precedent for this with the other women of the Xiao family.

“Where’s the Xiao family now?” Yu Yunxi continued to ask.

“I don’t know. After Empress Emerita Xiao married the Emperor Emeritus back then, the Xiao family disappeared from Xichu. I only knew about the women of the Xiao family losing their memories because my father worked in the palace back then, and he had heard about it back then. The whereabouts of the Xiao family is a mystery…” Meng Xia explained, looking helpless and worried.

Yu Yunxi sighed. However, she did not let this matter bother her. After all, she had already expected this.

Based on the books she had read, she knew that the Xiao family was one of the Four Great Hidden Families of the world. The only time the Xiao family made a public appearance was when the family’s legitimate daughter married into Xichu’s imperial family more than sixty years ago.

It was not surprising that no one knew the whereabouts of the Xiao family and the other three Great Hidden Families. Everyone in the world thought that Xichu was mysterious, but the Four Great Hidden Families were even more mysterious. It was said that these hidden families possessed mysterious powers. No one knew if it was true or not.

Finally, Yu Yunxi said softly, “Alright, it’s getting late. You should go and rest.”

“Yes, Eldest Princess.’

The King of Youshan’s Residence.

Feng Yili stood by the window of his study, emanating a chilly aura. His expression was extremely gloomy as well. He wanted to stand next to Yu Yunxi openly, and he felt he was about to go crazy from holding himself back. After a moment, he asked hoarsely, “Jiang Ying, how’s the investigation regarding the Princess Consort’s memory loss going?”

Behind Feng Yili, Jiang Ying kneeled on the ground and reported, “Your Royal Highness, it’s likely that the Princess Consort’s memory loss was caused by the Xiao family’s curse.”

“The Xiao family’s curse?” Feng Yili’s eyes glinted coldly.

“Yes. It’s said that 300 years ago, someone cursed the Xiao family. Since then, some women of the Xiao family would gradually lose their memories after giving birth, ” Jiang Ying replied with a grave expression on his face.

“I know that Xichu’s Empress Emerita Xiao came from the reclusive Xiao family, and I also heard about the curse…” Feng Yili muttered.

In the past, the heads of the mysterious Xiao family had always been women. The person who cursed the women of the Xiao family to lose their memories, hoping that the women would forget and lose their loved ones. The Xiao family naturally had a lot of secrets, and the person who placed the curse on the Xiao family also hoped that they would forget the family’s legacy and secrets. According to the rumors, the Xiao family used a special method to deal with the curse. They found a way to discover the gender of the child when the women were pregnant. If the child was determined to be female, they would kill the child. It was a very cruel method, and with this method, there were very few women in the Xiao family. As a result, for the past 300 years, the position of the head of the Xiao family was inherited by men.

‘What happened back then? And Yunxi…’

After a long silence, Feng Yili asked, sounding tired, “Is there a way to break the curse?”

Jiang Ying opened his mouth several times, but no words came out. His hesitant attitude was enough to answer Feng Yili’s question.

Feng Yili staggered back slightly. His heart ached, and there was a sweet and metallic taste in his mouth.

Jiang Ying said anxiously, “Your Royal Highness, you have to take care of your health. We’ll definitely find a way to restore the Princess Consort’s memory!”

Feng Yili smiled bitterly before he slowly said, “The Xiao family is one of the

Four Great Hidden Families. There’s no doubt that the family is powerful and capable. Even then, they are helpless against this curse. They had to resort to preventing women from giving birth to baby girls just to protect the family. I don’t think it’ll be easy for us to restore Yunxi’s memory…”

Feng Yili’s expression was incomparably lonely at this moment. However, not long after, it was replaced by a determined expression. He looked outside the window with his dark eyes, looking like a lone wolf lurking in the night.

After a long time, Feng Yili said in a low voice, “It’s fine. It doesn’t matter if her past memories are gone. I’ll be in her future memories. She’ll always be my

Princess Consort.”

Early in the morning.

As soon as Yu Yunxi emerged from her room, she made her way to the little bun’s room. As soon as she walked in, she saw the little bun sitting on the bed, looking at his swaying feet.

When she saw this scene, her eyes turned red. After all, she now knew the little bun was her child. Alas, she could not remember the past. Moreover, she had refuted him yesterday when he called her ‘Mother’.

“Junjin…”

“Mother!” the little bun exclaimed when he heard Yu Yunxi. Then, he quickly recalled that Yu Yunxi did not remember him so he quickly changed his words and called out, “Sister.”

Seeing how cautious the little bun was, Yu Yunxi felt as though her heart had been cut by a knife. She hesitated for a moment before she walked over. She reached out, intending to stroke the little bun’s face but was worried it was too abrupt. Moreover, she could not remember what she had been like as a mother.

In the end, she stroked his head stiffly and asked gently, “Did you sleep well last night?”

“I did. Thank you, Sister,” the little bun replied with a sigh, “I just… I just can’t bear to leave you…

Yu Yunxi’s hand froze, and she felt extremely distressed on the little bun’s behalf. She regretted her decision to send the little bun back yesterday. After a moment, she could not help but ask, “Junjin, are you willing to live with me in the future?”

“Of course, I’m willing! But… what about Father? Can Father live with us?” the little bun asked tentatively.

Although the little bun was angry with his father, he had calmed down by now. After thinking about it, he realized that things had not been easy for his father recently. Moreover, if it was not for his father, he would not have been able to find his mother. Most importantly, if his father could stay by his mother’s side, his father might be able to help his mother recover her memories. For all these reasons, he was determined to find a way for his father to stay with his mother.

Meanwhile, when Yu Yunxi heard the little bun’s question, she shook her head and said, “This is the King of Zhenbei’s Residence. It’ll be inappropriate for an unrelated man to stay here…’

In fact, Yu Yunxi’s thoughts were very simple now. She planned to keep her son with her and avoid the father for the time being. She did not know how her relationship was with Feng Yili in the past, and she did not know how to face him. Hence, she just wanted to avoid him for now.

The little bun knew he could not force Yu Yunxi now. Hence, he quickly nodded and said softly, “Okay.. I’ll discuss this with Father…”
