Chapter 282: The Cousin of "Fuwa" 10
At the beginning of the Yin hour on the next day, Gu Yong and Li Xiuqin woke up. At this time, Gu Qian was also awakened by the alarm clock in his space.
Listening to the noises in the room, Gu Qian thought with emotion: How do they manage to get up on time without any reminder?
After a while, Gu Qian was awakened by Li Xiuqin.
"Qianqian, get up. We are going to send my brother to the county government office today."
"Hmm? Okay..." Gu Qian opened her eyes hazily, rubbed her eyes, and got up obediently.
At this time, Gu Yong also called Cheng Shangyu over there.
After a quick packing, they set off for the county government office.
Gu Yong asked for the only small cart in the house to be pushed out and let the two children sit on it.
In this way, Cheng Shangyu and Gu Qian were pushed forward step by step by Gu Yong and Li Xiuqin.
Along the way, Gu Qian was chattering.
Gu Yong and Li Xiuqin couldn't persuade him any more, so they talked to Cheng Shangyu.
After a full hour and a half, they finally arrived in Wu County.
"We're finally here!" Gu Yongqi said breathlessly.
Although he usually picked some vegetables to sell, he always sold them in town and didn't walk so far to come here.
Besides, the weight of the two children was still a bit heavy, and his hands were numb after pushing for so long.
Gu Yong randomly found someone on the street and asked for the address of the county government.
After asking, several people set off again.
This time they arrived at their destination quickly.
When they arrived at the gate of the county government, Gu Yong asked a few people to stay where they were while he went forward to explain the situation.
"My dear, I am sorry to bother you. I am from Ke Village. I met an injured child on the mountain behind the village. This child doesn't look like an ordinary child, so I wanted to send him to the county government. Could you please inform them?"
"Child?" The guard looked confused, then he became excited as if he suddenly remembered something.
"You wait here, I'll go find someone!" The guard said this and ran inside without paying any attention to Gu Yong.
Gu Yong stood there, somewhat confused.
At this time, Gu Qian, who was still a little further away, said, "Mom, let's go over there."
"Okay, let's go see what happened?" Li Xiuqin looked at the guard who was talking to Gu Yong and ran straight inside, and she also felt it was a bit strange.
Only Gu Qian and Cheng Shangyu roughly know the truth of the matter.
It was just that the order to find the prince had been conveyed to the county government, and the guards were excited when they saw that they had brought a child with them.
When Gu Qian and the others walked up to Gu Yong, a group of people also walked out of the yamen.
The leader was wearing armor and looked like a general, quite imposing.
The person behind him was wearing an official uniform and looked quite dignified.
Before he even got close, he asked the guard, "Who said there was a trace of the fifth prince?"
Before the guard could reply, the man dressed as a general had already walked up to Cheng Shangyu, knelt on one knee, bowed his head and clasped his hands together, "Greetings to His Royal Highness the Fifth Prince!"
The crowd of officials and police officers behind him knelt down reflexively and shouted, "Greetings to His Royal Highness the Fifth Prince!"
Gu Yong and Li Xiuqin were stunned by the scene before them!
They could never have imagined that the child they rescued was actually the fifth prince of the current emperor!
So what did they do yesterday?
They used wild herbs to make medicinal juice and applied it to the Fifth Prince's hands and legs, made him wear old clothes, and let him sleep in their bed...
This is a huge offense!
Gu Yong and Li Xiuqin both had huge beads of sweat on their heads, as if revealing their inner panic.
"Fifth...Fifth Prince..." When Li Xiuqin reacted and everyone in the audience knelt down except their family of three, she was about to kneel down tremblingly, and at the same time pulled Gu Yong, who was still in a daze.
Gu Qian simply ignored all of this and looked at them curiously.
After all, she is just a cute little kid. Isn't it normal that she doesn't understand?
She would never kneel down and kowtow to others!
Cheng Shangyu noticed Li Xiuqin's actions with his sharp eyes and quickly stepped forward to stop him.
"Aunt Li, please don't be like this. You saved me and are my saviors. How can I deserve your kneeling?"
When Li Xiuqin heard the words "Aunt Li" coming out of the Fifth Prince's mouth, she felt like the sky was falling. Why did she let the Fifth Prince call her Aunt Li?
"No...no, I, Li Xiuqin, am not worthy of your calling me Aunt Li. It's really an embarrassment to me!"
"Aunt Li, you deserve it! If it weren't for you and Uncle Gu, I might not have existed long ago!"
"This..." Li Xiuqin didn't know what to say, and Gu Yong had not yet recovered from his confused state.
At this time, the general said, "Fifth Prince, since they are your lifesavers, you must ask for a reward. Why not ask the county magistrate to arrange a place for them to stay in the city first?"
"That's great." Cheng Shangyu nodded, then turned to Li Xiuqin and said, "Aunt Li, you must agree, otherwise I will be uneasy."
At this point, he knew that Li Xiuqin had to make the decision on this matter, and Gu Yong no longer had the power to make decisions.
"You know, we have a lot of work to do in the fields. If Brother Yong doesn't go there every two days, I'm afraid everything in the fields will go bad."
"How about this, Aunt Li? I will bring some people there in a couple of days. How about you guys stop by then? It will only take a few days for me to recover from my injuries."
He still had revenge to take, how could he just leave like that?
"Well... okay, okay!" Li Xiuqin hesitated for a long time, and finally saw that all the officials she had never met before were waiting for her answer, so she hurriedly nodded and agreed.
What a joke. With so many people watching her, she had to agree even if she didn't want to.
"That's great. Then I'll trouble the county magistrate to prepare a place for me and Uncle Gu's family to live."
"Don't worry, Fifth Prince. I have already ordered someone to make the arrangements."
Afterwards, Cheng Shangyu temporarily stayed in the county magistrate's mansion, where he was treated by the accompanying imperial physician.
Gu Qian's family was arranged to live in the post station, and their food and lodging were contracted by the county magistrate.
"Brother Yong, what you said..." Li Xiuqin, who was arranged to stay in the inn, still didn't react at this time.
However, when she turned to look at Gu Yong, she found that he seemed even more confused.
"Ah? Xiuqin, what did you say?"
Seeing this, Li Xiuqin sighed helplessly.
"How could we have imagined this? We just rescued a child in the back mountain, who would have thought that he was actually the fifth prince of the dynasty?"
"Yeah... I just hope this is not a bad thing." Gu Yong also sighed.
"We gave them herbs, made them wear old clothes, and even made them sleep on the kang with us... Fortunately, His Royal Highness the Fifth Prince didn't mind, otherwise we would have been really offended!"
"That's right..." Gu Yong's eyes widened as if he suddenly thought of something.
