The Prime Minister Seduced Me to have Babies!-Chapter 597: Soulless Syndrome

They originally lived in the backyard of the government office. To make room for the newly arrived County Magistrate, they moved to one of Mrs. Liu’s own courtyards.

Then they sought out doctors and extended medication everywhere, hoping Chen Song would recover soon and head to the Capital City as quickly as possible.

The document from the Ministry of Personnel had a deadline for reporting.

Who knew after seeing several doctors, none proved effective, and the illness became increasingly severe.

Mrs. Liu was in a desperate state when she heard people mention that there was a Doctor Gu in the neighboring Qingshan County, who was highly skilled and better than the doctors in the county, so she sent her family to the neighboring county to invite him.

Who knew, the coachman, in his haste, caused the doctor to fall off the mountain halfway through the journey.

And her husband passed away.

At this moment, Mrs. Liu was at a complete loss.

For a while, she didn’t know whether to first inform their hometown of the funeral or report it to the court first.

At this time, hearing the maid’s words, she suddenly had a bold idea. If it succeeded, she could continue being the wife of an official!

She asked the maid, "How could he not even know who he is?"

The maid replied, "He still has a wound on his head. When I just saw it, half of his face was still bloodied."

"I’ve heard that some people have a soul-loss syndrome, where they lose one soul and one spirit out of the three souls and seven spirits. Such people will forget who they are and have no memory of past events."

"I think he has soul-loss syndrome!"

Upon hearing this, Mrs. Liu made up her mind and whispered to the maid, "First, take him inside and settle him in the room that belonged to the old master in the main courtyard."

"Then keep watch over him, give him something to eat, and absolutely do not let him contact anyone. If he asks you anything, don’t say a word."

The maid nodded and brought Gu Yuheng, who was sitting dazed under a tree in the courtyard, back to the main courtyard.

Meanwhile, Mrs. Liu quietly dragged her husband’s body away and buried it.

All the servants were dismissed, except for the trusted maid watching over Gu Yuheng.

Then they arranged for a doctor to examine Gu Yuheng. The doctor prescribed some medicine for the injuries and also said Gu Yuheng had soul-loss syndrome.

After the doctor left, Mrs. Liu told Gu Yuheng that he was her husband, and he was about to take office in the Capital City when he accidentally fell off the carriage.

Right now, he needed to leave immediately; otherwise, if they missed the time, he wouldn’t be able to take the official post, and the court might investigate.

With his mind blank, Gu Yuheng naturally believed whatever he was told.

So, after a few days of rest, once Gu Yuheng’s injuries healed, Mrs. Liu hired a carriage to head to the Capital City.

Mrs. Liu’s son was still young, just over two years old. In the first few days, the child cried out for his father, and Mrs. Liu said that Gu Yuheng was his father.

The child knew he was not, but he was still too young to articulate it well. After fussing several times, he quieted down.

Along the way, Gu Yuheng handled both big and small matters. He had a naturally gentle disposition and took great care of Mrs. Liu and her son during the journey.

The child quickly grew close to him, and even Mrs. Liu felt he was much better than her deceased husband.

Upon arrival in the Capital City, Mrs. Liu took out her Silver and purchased a property where the whole family settled down.

Gu Yuheng took the appointment document from the Ministry of Personnel and the official decree to report to the Ministry of Personnel.

Although the document described Chen Song’s height and physical characteristics, it was just an approximation. The people at the Ministry of Personnel checked briefly and felt it was close enough, so Gu Yuheng started working in the Ministry of Industry.

He was already literate, so reading official documents was not an issue.

This extraordinary Mrs. Liu found another avenue and hired an old scribe to manage various document matters for him, who was said to have once worked with the Lord Governor.

Gu Yuheng was naturally a smart person, and with the old scribe’s help, he quickly got the hang of his work.

He was diligent in his duties, accomplishing several tasks well, and even earned his superior’s appreciation a few times.
