Chapter 635 Unconscious
Queer Hutong.
The New Year atmosphere in this area is not very strong because it is basically full of tenants.
They are either the concubines of wealthy families or passing merchants who rent the houses.
No one like this would celebrate the New Year in a big way, so this alley seems particularly deserted.
Although Li Cheng was a prince of Goguryeo, when he served as an envoy, the Qing Dynasty had the obligation to arrange accommodation for him.
But later it became a study abroad program, and I needed to take care of accommodation and other matters myself.
Fortunately, the Imperial College provided food and accommodation, so he only needed to go out as a person and didn't care much about the accommodation.
In addition, it is not easy to live in Beijing. Whether buying a house or land or renting a house is very expensive.
Chengfeng was as frugal as his master. He wanted to be close to the Imperial College, but he couldn't spend too much.
After searching for a long time, I finally found Queer Hutong.
Regardless of the neighbors, the houses here are still okay and the surrounding area is quite convenient for living.
Although the price is not cheap, the houses in this place are relatively small and not suitable for a large family, so the total price is much cheaper.
It was just right for them, their master, servants and a few guards to live in, so Li Cheng agreed.
Every time the Imperial College was on vacation, he would return to Que'er Hutong to live, so that he finally had his own place.
He thought he could stay in Queerhu for a few days during the annual leave and then return to Goguryeo.
He hadn't seen his mother for almost a year, so he collected a lot of silks and satins, waiting to give them to her when he returned.
In addition, he and Yaliqi have recently become close friends, and he also has some little secrets of a man that he wants to tell his mother.
But he happily wrote a letter to Goguryeo, but received no response at all.
Not only that, he didn't even receive the monthly letter.
His mother was the only child of him and was afraid that he would suffer outside, so she would write to him every month and also send money along with the letter so that he could live a better life outside.
But this month, there is absolutely no news at all.
In the last few days, Li Cheng was even absent-minded in class, and all he was thinking about was whether something had happened to his mother.
But he couldn't tell Yaliqi about this, so he could only worry about it silently.
When it was late at night and everyone was asleep, I didn’t know how many tears I had cried. But when I met people in the morning, I had to pretend nothing had happened.
In fact, when he left Goguryeo, his mother had told him that if he had the ability to stay outside, he should not return to Goguryeo.
If you have the ability to make the boss afraid to take action, then go back and see her.
Otherwise, just live a good life outside, which is more important than anything else.
Li Cheng himself had no special abilities, and he agreed with Cui's words.
With Yaliqi's support, he believed that he could still take advantage of the annual leave to go back and reunite with his mother.
But Cui suddenly disappeared without a trace, and he had a bad feeling.
He couldn't tell Yaliqi or anyone else about these things and could only bear it silently by himself.
Because there was no news from Cui, although Li Cheng was worried, he did not dare to return to Goguryeo during the New Year.
But he had been getting news about Goguryeo from other channels.
After all, he was a prince and knew something about the Goguryeo people in the Qing Dynasty.
After further inquiries, I got a piece of news, which I didn't know whether it was true or not - Goguryeo was stationing troops recently.
How many people could there be in Goguryeo?
How many able-bodied men could there be? How could such a major event as stationing troops not be reported?
The Qing Dynasty might not be aware of this, but the Goguryeo people outside would also pay attention to news from home.
This time, Li Cheng was looking for a traveling merchant who also happened to live in Que'er Hutong and was considered a relatively successful businessman.
His words were filled with worry: "I don't know what to do. I have two younger brothers and three nephews at home, but they have all been conscripted."
He did live in the capital with his whole family, but he also had younger brothers, nephews and others at home.
Conscription was necessary in the past, but all the male members of a family would not be conscripted at once.
After he got the news, he didn't dare go back to Goguryeo even during the New Year.
He knew that once he went back, he and his two sons might never come back.
Li Cheng comforted him, but he didn't know how to comfort himself.
When he returned, he was worried because he understood what Goguryeo was going to do.
He has always known the ambitions of his father and elder brother.
But in his opinion, the Qing Dynasty was rich and powerful, and its army was brave and good at fighting.
If they were slightly offended by Japan, they would still fight back and retaliate even though they were so far away.
Not to mention that Goguryeo was not as powerful as Japan. They could only fill their stomachs by cultivating the seeds of sweet potatoes donated by the Qing Dynasty.
But although there are more newborns in recent years, they are still children. How can they go to the battlefield before they grow up?
It is simply insane to do something like conscripting all the adult males in a household into the army.
And what the purpose of stationing troops is, isn't it obvious?
If you don't want to get a piece of the pie from the Qing Dynasty, do you want to go and fight the Russians in the snow and ice?
Not only are the people there tall and strong, but what can we do if we rob them?!
Li Cheng had such a guess, and that night he had a nightmare and developed a high fever.
Before, I was just worried about my mother, but my mother's family, the Cui family, are not pushovers either.
The most they could do was to forbid her from spreading the news, and her life would be safe.
But with such speculation, he was worried about everyone in Goguryeo.
Including his and his mother's lives, can they still survive after being defeated?
Not to mention that he and Yaliqi are now in tune with each other. How will he deal with the national hatred and family feuds when the time comes?
Li Cheng was not very strong to begin with, and after such worries, his illness gradually became more serious.
On New Year's Eve, he couldn't get out of bed at all. Cheng Feng was so scared that he kept wiping away tears, not knowing what to do.
He could only go outside to ask for a doctor, but it was Chinese New Year and the doctors had all gone home to eat the New Year’s Eve dinner.
Not to mention the strong wind and snow, he couldn't find anyone anywhere.
Finally, Chengfeng thought of Miaorentang. The princess told him that there were doctors on duty at Miaorentang during the New Year and other holidays.
He ran over in a hurry and fell twice on the way. When he arrived at Miaorentang, his face was a mess with snot and tears frozen together.
There are several doctors in Miaorentang who have vowed not to marry. They don’t want to go back to their parents’ home to listen to nagging during the Chinese New Year, so they simply stay in the clinic to celebrate the New Year together.
It’s just right that everyone can take turns on duty so that no one person will be tired.
When Chengfeng arrived, the New Year's Eve dinner was only half eaten.
Hearing his urgent knocks on the door, Doctor Li on duty went to open the door first.
Seeing the young boy in such a state of disarray, he quickly asked, "What's wrong? Where do you feel uncomfortable?"
Cheng Feng cried and said, "It's not me, it's my master, he's already unconscious from the fever. I beg the doctor to be kind enough to come with me to see him!"
