Chapter 7 Recognition (Part 2)
The sound of conversation came from his ears. Li Gou'er slowly opened her eyes and moved for a moment. She felt a soreness all over her body, especially her head, and there was a burning stinging pain. Thinking of the scene that day, she felt a chill in her heart.
"You're awake."
A surprise sound came, and Li Gou'er turned her head to look at it, but it was the pretty boy. This person was a eunuch in the palace, and everyone called him Xiao Lezi.
Sitting up from the bed with great force, Li Gou'er said gratefully: "If you hadn't spoken to help you that day, I would have been dead. I will definitely repay you this kindness in the future."
After hearing Li Gou'er say this, Xiao Lezi's face suddenly felt happy and she bent down and said, "Young Master Li is so polite. This is what a servant should do. I just wish I didn't recognize Mr. Li in time that day, otherwise how could those people be so rampant?"
Li Gou'er looked at him in surprise. Why is this person so respectful and polite to him?
"Young Master Li, you have been sleeping for three days. I'm afraid you don't know many things yet."
Xiao Lezi knew that Li Gou'er was confused and was about to explain, but Zhu Zhengguo limped in.
"You kid finally woke up. If you don't wake up, Concubine Li is going to send someone to carry you into the palace."
Seeing that Li Gou'er had woken up, Zhu Zhengguo walked over with a happy look on his face.
Li Gou'er just woke up and couldn't figure out the situation, so she could only smile bitterly: "Brother Zhu, what happened?"
"You boy is rich, you are completely rich."
Zhu Zhengguo glanced at Li Gou'er enviously, and then told the story one by one.
This pretty boy is an eunuch, who is on duty by Concubine Li, and his surname is Le.
After being beaten that day, both of them were unconscious. Xiao Lezi temporarily arranged them in the Honglu Temple and found a doctor. After learning that the two were not in danger of their lives, she hurried back to the palace. In the early morning of the next day, she immediately reported the matter to Concubine Li. After hearing this, Concubine Li was overjoyed and immediately asked Xiao Lezi to take her palace sign to take Li Gou'er to the palace. She wanted to personally identify the truth.
In recent years, Concubine Li has no hope of finding her relatives, so whenever someone comes to recognize her relatives, she will not take action in person, but will send someone to question her. However, Xiao Lezi's message sent back was a surprise. Her father had passed away and her mother was seriously ill in bed. She had the deepest relationship with her third brother. When the two were separated, some of the words they said were impossible for outsiders to know.
Xiao Lezi led people to Honglu Temple, and Li Gou'er was still unconscious because he was injured in his head. If he forced to wake up, he would not be able to bear it. When he was anxious, Zhu Zhengguo, who had already woken up, asked the reason and immediately said: "Li Gou'er's father is outside the city."
Xiao Lezi was overjoyed and asked someone to help Zhu Zhengguo out of the city and found Li Mancang. Although Li Mancang was sick and unable to walk, he was awake, so he asked someone to carry him into the palace.
When Concubine Li saw Li Mancang, she didn't recognize him for a while and asked many questions. However, Li Mancang had already recognized Concubine Li as the eldest sister he had not seen for many years, and cried loudly: "There is a wound behind Mancang, because he was playing with his eldest sister when he was young, and was left by his accidental injury."
When someone took off his shirt, there was indeed a finger-sized scar left behind him. Afterwards, Concubine Li asked many questions, and Li Mancang responded with no mistakes. Concubine Li finally confirmed that this person was really his third brother who had been separated for many years. He burst into tears and had no doubts anymore. He caressed his brother and cried continuously.
Li Gou'er sat on the bed blankly, feeling like Zhu Zhengguo was talking about the heavenly book. The words that day were in despair. He said casually, just to save his life, but he did not expect that the matter was real. His aunt was really the imperial concubine of the dynasty.
"Mr. Li, since you have woken up, we should enter the palace soon. The Imperial Concubine has been looking forward to meeting you."
Xiao Lezi whispered beside him.
"Where is my father now?"
"Old Master Li is in good health. The imperial concubine asked the imperial doctor to treat him. She is recuperating in the palace at this moment."
Li Gou'er glanced at him. My father was only 37 years old and very young. What's his name? It sounds really weird.
Li Gou'er got out of bed, and Xiao Lezi quickly handed over a new set of clothes and served him respectfully.
"Brother Zhu, are you going to the palace with me?"
Li Gou'er asked while wearing clothes.
Zhu Zhengguo smiled bitterly and shook his head: "Do you think it's easy to go to the palace?"
Li Gou'er smiled bitterly. He was indeed a little confused, or the sudden change in his identity made him a little at a loss.
Li Gou'er changed her clothes, said a few more words to Zhu Zhengguo, and then left with Eunuch Le.
"Dog, will you come to me?"
Zhu Zhengguo suddenly called Li Gou'er behind him.
Li Gou'er turned around and said in surprise: "Of course, you are well prepared here. I will come to see you when I am busy. By the way, if you have time, you can go out of the city and bring Yu Guang and Yan Yi in."
Speaking of this, Li Gou'er said to Xiao Lezi again: "Eunuch Le, I have a few friends who are suffering outside the city. I wonder if I can send someone to bring them here and make some arrangements?"
Xiao Lezi nodded repeatedly: "This small matter is simple, but I will arrange it immediately."
After saying that, he called an official from the Honglu Temple and whispered a few instructions.
................
Honglu Temple is not far from the imperial city.
When Li Gouer walked through the tall gate of the imperial city and walked into it, looking at the tall and magnificent buildings, she suddenly felt that the sky was particularly high, but she was particularly small.
Li Gou'er looked around and felt very novel about everything around him. He had never been to the Forbidden City in Beijing. I wonder if he could compare it with this place?
Walking along a road, Li Gou'er saw many palaces and saw eunuchs cleaning everywhere from time to time, but the concubines, princesses, did not see any of them.
"Eunuch Le, such a big place, I feel that there is no popularity."
Xiao Lezi laughed and said, "Although the number of concubines in the current priests is relatively small among the emperors of all ages, there are more than a hundred people, eunuchs and palace maids, and there are thousands of them. How could they not be popular? It's just that it's still early now, and many concubines and concubines are still dressing up or eating breakfast before they get up. How can they wander around at this time?"
Li Gou'er nodded and glanced at the sky. The sky was just dawning. He didn't understand the time of this era.
The imperial city is indeed too big. After walking for nearly an hour, Changle Palace finally arrived. This is the residence of Concubine Li. Li Gou'er no longer had the curiosity and elegance he had before. His face was a little pale and sweated a lot on his body. He was already injured, but after walking so far, his body couldn't bear it.
Xiao Lezi asked Li Gou'er to wait outside, then went outside the gate bridge and whispered a name inside. During this period, he could not directly enter the inner room of Concubine Li.
