Chapter 340 - A Memory From The Past (6)



Inside his daughter\'s room, he saw Yi Jie sitting on the edge of the bed with teary eyes as she changed the wet cloth on Li Rui\'s forehead.

"Heng"

Yi Jie whispered when she raised her head and saw her husband standing at the door of the room.

General Li walked inside and stood beside his wife. Holding her hand, he silently comforted her and then looked at his unconscious daughter on the bed.

She was murmuring something as he could see her lips moving constantly.

General Li left his wife\'s hand and leaned down to hear what Li Rui was murmuring only to have his body completely stilled after he registered her words in his mind.

"Li Zhan…Li Zhan…Li Zhan…"

Yi Jie knew what her husband had heard.

She could not help but cry when she saw his helpless face. A same kind of expression she had on her face as she told him

"The physician said that if we bring Li Zhan here then perhaps Li Rui will wake up."

General Li\'s body stilled more if it could than before.

Bring Li Zhan to cure Li Rui…how could he even do that when Li Zhan was already dead?

"She will get better soon. Don\'t worry. The physician must have said this because he didn\'t know the cure. I will immediately ask the soldiers to look for some other physician."

General Li said with a straight face and then left the room.

A few moments later, outside the room, he called for Li Mei and Li Hua.

Both the maids came out of the room leaving Li Rui\'s side.

"What did happen to Rui in my absence?"

General Li had seen himself that Li Rui was slowly trying to come out of her loss. And he had fully tried to help his daughter.

Although it was difficult, he wanted to make sure that Li Rui forgets everything and since she was young, it should have been easier to erase these horrible things from her memory or at least faint them so much that they would no longer bother her.

He made sure that no one will mention the Imperial Palace incident in front of her again. So there must be something that triggered this.

"We don\'t know anything, My Lord."

"We had actually gone to arrange some tea or games for Young Miss and her friends so that we could make Young Miss happy. However, when we came back we saw Young Miss unconscious inside the garden with Young Miss Yi."

Li Hua told General Li with a guilty expression on her face.

General Li was very unhappy and didn\'t hesitate to reprimand them even though they already looked guilty.

"You two are here in this manor to stay beside Li Rui for every second. Don\'t think that just because my daughter cherishes you a lot, I will let you ignore your duties."

The two maids were terrified after they heard these words. They had never dared to ignore their duties. Not because they were maids but because they cared for Li Rui as much as the other members in Li Manor did.

However, since they were slaves they could only go and accept their punishment when General asked them to.

"Where is Yi Huiqing?"

General Li asked coldly.

A maid instantly stepped forward and informed him.

"My Lord, Young Miss Yi was urgently requested to hurry back to Yi Manor as Madam Yi went in labor pain."

General Li closed his eyes in frustration.

"So there is no one who can tell me what happened with my daughter in my absence."

The maid lowered her head hearing his angry tone. But a moment later, she suddenly looked up and said

"My Lord, this servant had seen Second Young Miss and Third Young Miss with Second Young Master going out of First Young Miss\' Courtyard."

"Li Na, Li Caihong and Li Chen…"

General Li whispered and sighed heavily. A moment later, he ordered the maid

"Ask the three of them to show up here instantly."

The maid bowed her head and immediately ran out of the courtyard to do the said work.

At the same time, the soldier came with another physician. The physician bowed in front of General Li but General Li waved his hand to stop him and asked him to go inside hurriedly and check Li Rui.

Without wasting another moment, the physician went inside.

At this moment, the three children from the second household also stepped inside Li Rui\'s courtyard. However, with them came Li Rong who had a constant frown on her forehead.

General Li sighed again when he noticed Li Rong walking ahead of Li Na, Li Caihong and Li Chen.

The frown on Li Romg\'s face went away when she was in front of General Li. She smiled politely and asked him with a face full of worry.

"Second Younger Brother, How is Li Rui now? The maid Second Younger Brother has sent just informed me that Li Rui is having a very high fever."

General Li also smiled tightly and answered Li Rong.

"Elder Sister in Law was troubled. Li Rui does have a very high fever. The fever was very sudden after two weeks so I doubt that something might have happened in my absence. That\'s why I called Li Na, Li Caihong and Li Chen here to know if there really happened something in my absence."

General Li intentionally explained the reason behind calling the children from the second household. He knew Li Rong\'s nature. She could be sometimes too overprotective over her children. And this happened much when his elder brother was absence from Li Manor and was on the borders. Just like now, he had just called the three children but she accompanied them as if he was going to scold them unreasonably.

Li Na and Li Caihong looked at each other and silently lowered their heard pretending to be very innocent.

On the other hand, after hearing General Li\'s explanation Li Rong felt that she should not say anything so she stepped aside allowing General Li to question her children.
