Chapter 426: Back home

At the end of the day, Li Wei was finally able to leave the palace and return to Li's house.
Closer, this is the first time she has returned to her family's home after she came back, and further away, this is the second time she has gone back in these years after entering the palace. The last time I went back was in the fifteenth year of Xikang. It was because his mother was seriously ill, and the Emperor Xiandi told Li Wei of leave and allowed her to go back and visit for half a day.
Now, in the first year of Chunping, almost three years have passed since I haven't returned, but for Li Wei, living in that era for more than ten years has made her memory even more distant. She sat in the sedan chair, and she didn't know how long she had been walking. About to go out of the palace forbidden city, and after a while, there was no expected noise from the market in her ears.
Later, she finally lifted a corner of the curtain and looked out. The people in front had already sounded the gong to clear the scene, and there were no pedestrians at all. The street was very quiet, like midnight.
From the imperial palace to Shangshufu, it takes an hour and a half to travel in a sedan chair, which is still fast.
Li Wei thought that they should prepare the carriage so that they would come and go faster.
It was noon when I got home. Although Li Wei and Long Fang had a grudge because of Li Shi, the rules should not be disordered. Li Shao and others had also known about the Queen Mother's return to the house, and they led the males in the two rooms of the family to wait outside the Yimen.
When the Queen Mother's sedan chair had arrived, Li's family knelt up and down.
Lan Hui and Qingxiang came up to lift the curtain for Li Wei, Lan Hui handed out his arm, Li Wei stabilized Fang and got off the sedan.
"The minister welcomes the Queen Mother..."
Li Wei glanced at the uncle who was kneeling not far away, her eyes sank, and Lan Hui said: "Order to go down, all national gifts are free."
She just came back to visit her father who was seriously ill, not wanting to make trouble.
She went directly to the Wutong Garden where her parents lived. She had just entered the Chuhua Gate, and Mrs. Wen and Fu were waiting. Mrs. Wen's expression was a little gloomy. Li Wei had no time to take care of her feelings and not allow the two elders to salute her. After seeing her mother, she worriedly asked, "Mother, what about father?"
Fu Shi naturally had a sad look on her face. She endured her grief and said flatly: "The queen mother has worked hard. Please take a moment to rest in the room."
She came in a sedan chair, what is the hard work? Li Wei and his mother said, "Let's visit my father first."
The female relatives in the two rooms clustered Li Wei to the study where Li Yi recuperated.
Walking in this familiar and unfamiliar mansion, Li Wei looked up and saw that the female wall was already covered with the sky, and there were occasional clusters of orange flowers blooming in the wind under the green leaves. After so many years, the originally slender vines have grown into woody plants.
When she was at home, she still climbed this low courtyard wall, but at that time she was small, and such a low wall was also a tall barrier for her.
The flowers and plants are the same, the people are the same, but they will never go back to the past.
Before Li Wei could feel it, he had already come to the study where his father was recuperating.
Li Yi was lying on the bed, and there were no shortage of people to serve in front of him, and Grand Doctor Lu was still here.
"Daddy, I'm back to see you." Li Wei called it like a child.
Li Wei directly sat on the edge of the bed and raised his eyes to look at his father who was lying on the bed. The father lay there, with a bean-green tulle quilt on his body, his mouth half open, and there seemed to be saliva overflowing from the corners of his mouth. Li Yi saw her daughter clearly and was very excited. There were some strange noises in her throat, but she couldn't hear what she was saying.
The doctor Lu explained before him: "My lord, although he has woken up, he is paralyzed. Now he can't even speak."
Seeing such a father, Li Wei felt very uncomfortable. She reached out and held her father's hand and said with tears, "Daddy, you have suffered. You don't need to say anything about winning. I know you are uncomfortable. Now you are recovering well, following Dr. Lu's arrangements, cooperating with his treatment, and striving for an early Able to recover."
Some weird noises still made from Li Yi's throat, Li Wei shook his head at him and held his father's hand tightly. Later, Li Yi even shook his hand back, still exerting a slight force.
This subtle move made Li Wei noticed all of a sudden. She turned her head and said to Doctor Lu: "Father, he is holding my hand. Is this a good sign?"
Lu Chao first nodded and said, "Yes, this is a sign of improvement. Usually, you can talk to him more and help him turn his body, maybe a miracle will happen."
Li Wei stared at his father on the bed for a long time. After returning, he saw his mother several times, but his father never saw him. In her memory, her father was not so old. But the pleats on this face, the traces of white hair that can no longer be hidden in the hair, my father is not young anymore. Li Wei's nose was a little sore, but in front of the patient, she knew that these negative emotions could not be easily expressed, otherwise it would only make the patient decadent.
She sat in front of her for a while, and she was afraid that her father's mood would change even more after staying for a long time. For people who have suffered a stroke, rest is needed.
Li Wei tried to say a few words with his father, but Li Yi still couldn't respond to his daughter.
Later, Li Wei leaned down and said, "Daddy, you are going to be alive and well, and you are not afraid to cooperate with the treatment of the imperial physician. Although my daughter is not very convenient, she will always care about your illness."
When Li Wei came out, Fu invited Li Wei to rest in the Flower Hall.
The tea fruit has been prepared here, and Mrs. Wen will show his face. The generations of the two rooms will all come to salute, and have not bowed before entering the house, Li Wei said that all the etiquettes are exempted. Up.
Still in the old home, Li Wei sat in this room, closing his eyes, as if he could take her back to the distant childhood. At that time, she was the jewel in the palm of her mother, and she lived freely with her sisters at home, and had a carefree life. If there hadn't been Xikang's eleven years, maybe she could live a happy life under the protection of her parents. But where is it? She can't go back.
Li Wei thought of this level, holding a tea bowl, she calmly said: "Father is suddenly ill, and I am restless day and night, so I have to come back and see what I am doing. I have worked so hard for everyone like this. I think it is my ordinary daughter. After getting married, I usually go back to my natal home without formalities and rules. There are a lot of inconveniences in the palace, and I still want to be more at ease when I go home.
That's how it is said, but people at the moment dare not act rashly. Mrs. Wen drank two sips of tea quietly, wiped the corners of her mouth slowly, and glanced at Li Wei.
It happened that Li Wei also looked at Mrs. Wen, with a solemn expression on her face, and calmly asked: "Is there something auntie?"
"I..." Madam Wen thought even if you are the queen mother, I am also your elder, can you still open your mouth to drive me away.
