Chapter Seventy-Seven: Running Out of Ammunition and Food
Mu Qinyi's injury made Mu Chenghuang suddenly a little at a loss, but it was finally better than the previous worry that there was no reason and no news, and Shen Ke had already said that Song Ning was originally going to come back with them, but Song Ning was delayed because of some trivial matters in Jiangnan, and they left a few days late.
However, except for the prince, Wen Zhi and Zhang Tingyu have no news so far, as well as Zhou Lingxi, who was left in the Xiyi border pass by Luo Ping with a strategy, in short, Mu Chenghuang just feels that the current people are all fragmented.
But I can only comfort myself that troubled times are like this, and we always have to be prepared for the worst results.
In the past two days, Mu Chenghuang has almost always taken care of Mu Qinyi, although Mu Qinyi is in a coma, but now the climate is humid, even though every time Mu Chenghuang will personally change the freshly dried bedding for Mu Qinyi, but at night, it is damp again.
This kind of dampness ordinary people can't stand it, not to mention, it is Mu Qinyi, who is injured all over his body, Mu Chenghuang wants to know what happened to Luo Ping, Mu Qinyi and Yuan Huan after he left, these two days, Luo Ping woke up first, but the time to wake up every day is limited, and he doesn't know what he is talking about, and Mu Chenghuang is not good at asking about these past things.
One evening, Mu Chenghuang had just changed the medicine for Mu Qinyi, and saw Shen Ke waiting for her in front of the camp tent, holding a millet porridge in his hand.
"Fifth princess, you haven't eaten well for a few days, this is just boiled millet porridge, you can eat some, don't wait for the prince to wake up, but you fainted, you can faint before, your body is not as good as before, you should take care of yourself." Shen Ke frowned slightly, in fact, Shen Ke had also lost a lot of weight for a while, with protruding cheekbones and sunken cheeks, Lin Guanlan was also worried about Shen Ke's body, and persuaded her to eat more every day.
In fact, in this troubled world, everyone has countless things to worry about in their hearts, and there are countless people who are implicated, and no one can eat with peace of mind, but Shen Ke said it well, she always wants to save her physical strength, after all, she really doesn't want to fake her hands to others when she takes care of Mu Qinyi's affairs.
Mu Chenghuang nodded, and Shen Ke's face finally showed a little relief.
"I can eat, you have to eat with me, look at you, you are also thin. ”
Shen Ke nodded, Mu Chenghuang washed the handkerchief in his hand to wipe the pus and blood for Mu Qinyi, and then followed Shen Ke into the camp, the millet porridge was cooked very thickly, it was made by Red Sleeves himself, and some blood-replenishing red dates and wolfberries were added to it, and the lid was opened, and it was extremely fragrant.
Shen Ke filled a big bowl for Mu Chenghuang, and filled half a bowl for himself, Mu Chenghuang saw it, but he personally took the soup spoon and filled it to Shen Ke, looking at Shen Ke and said solemnly: "How much I eat, how much you eat, I can't fall, you are also a person who can't fall." ”
Shen Ke was silent, took a small sip, and said: "I wrote to the old lady a while ago, and asked about your situation, I don't know how to answer, counting, you have taken care of the prince for seven or eight days, and it is time to rest and rest." ”
Now that the situation in Jiangnan has stabilized, there are experienced and loyal people like Mrs. Xiang sitting in Jiangnan, and there is nothing big about it.
"Have a good rest and rest," Mu Chenghuang pursed his lips and smiled, "Qin Yi has paid so much for the people of the world to have a good rest and rest, how can I be lazy at this time, do you know, the military doctor came here today, and said that Qin Yi would be able to clean up the stones from the wound for a few more days, otherwise, if you keep it, it will rot." ”
Mu Chenghuang lowered his head, but his voice was low as he spoke, and his tone, which was originally full of hope, suddenly turned into incomparable remorse: "You said that I was so ruthless at that time, and left alone?"
"Fifth princess," Shen Ke immediately put down the soup bowl in his hand to protect Mu Chenghuang's slightly trembling shoulders," This can't be blamed on the five princesses, the situation is urgent, the prince just wants to let the five princesses live, the five princesses can successfully break through, this is already worthy of the prince, I know that the five princesses feel that this way, too many close people have left one after another, but the five princesses, this is the situation in this world, the Shen family is in Jiangnan, although the father has always been fascinated by the woman, but in the Shen family, they also took this opportunity to send a lot of men to the battlefield, as a result, no one returned, but who can we blame? No one knows when this war will end, and no one knows whether the person they sent will be able to come back, this is the norm, and the fifth princess doesn't think so much. ”
Shen Ke finished comforting, but he heard a man's helpless voice from the tent inside: "You two, it's really noisy." ”
Mu Chenghuang stood up suddenly and rushed into the tent, she couldn't believe her eyes, at this time, Mu Qinyi sat up straight with his arms supporting his body as if he was safe and sound, looking at her, although his face was still as pale as before, but he woke up, really woke up, although the words just now had consumed all the strength of his body.
Mu Qinyi took a deep breath, it was when his hands were weak and he was about to fall, Mu Chenghuang strode forward and directly hugged Mu Qinyi, who was as thin as a firewood stick, Mu Qinyi had been lying down for several days, his body was very thin, his back was like a ravine, there was no flesh at all, Mu Chenghuang put Mu Qinyi's head on his chest, and he clearly felt Mu Qinyi's weakness.
She helped Mu Qinyi to lie down lightly, the tears in her eyes could not be suppressed for a long time, but her tone still pretended not to care and said reproachfully: "The old problem always does not change, and I like to eavesdrop on girls." ”
Although Mu Qinyi didn't have the strength on his body, he still forced a smile: "I just like to listen to you." ”
Mu Chenghuang raised her eyebrows, all the gloom for so many days seemed to disappear all of a sudden, all because of Mu Qinyi's smile, she pursed her lips and smiled, tears fell happily: "You are always like this, you like to tease me, look at my jokes, can't you coax me well?" Tell me, you are okay now, your body is fine, and your heart is fine." ”
"Well, I'm fine, I'm fine, I'm fine, but my heart is ......"
"What?" Mu Chenghuang became a little nervous.
"That's it, these days, tomorrow and tomorrow, I can hear you talking, I can hear the sweet words you say to me, but I don't have the strength to open my eyes, and I feel that I am a little lost. ”
Mu Chenghuang burst into tears and laughed, suddenly thinking that Shen Ke had been outside all along, just to turn his head to look at Shen Ke, but Shen Ke shouted through the screen at the right time: "Since the prince is awake, then I will call the general doctor for the prince." After saying that, he left, and did not disturb the reunion of the two after a long absence.
Mu Qinyi nodded appreciatively: "Shen Ke is also sensible. ”
said this, as if after Shen Ke left, he really wanted to do something unsightly with Mu Chenghuang.
Mu Chenghuang and Mu Qinyi didn't talk for long, and soon, Tian Wei and the military doctor came with a lot of people, and the momentum was comparable to meeting the saint, although Tian Wei had already taken into account that Mu Qinyi had just woken up, and he must not like to see too many people, but now the situation in the capital is shaky, and many things need to be decided by Mu Qinyi, and the people brought by this are streamlined and streamlined, and there are still more than a dozen people.
Tian Wei asked the rest of the people to wait outside, and then took the closest people into the camp tent, and bowed his hands outside the screen, with some excitement and expectation in his voice: "The last general, Tian Wei, has seen the prince." ”
There was a quiet inside, if it weren't for Shen Ke coming over and saying that the prince had woken up, he didn't know it, and thought that Mu Qinyi inside was still lying down.
Tian Wei was about to report again, and Mu Qinyi's voice slowly came from inside: "General Tian, you have worked hard these days." ”
Tian Wei bowed his head, and his tone was extremely loyal: "Thanks to the care of the prince, although the last general was in prison before, it was all arranged by the prince, and the last general did not suffer much." ”
Mu Qinyi did have a good manpower in the prison, but from a radiant general to a subordinate prisoner, even if as Tian Wei said, there are people to take care of Mu Qinyi in the prison, but the bitterness in this is not that the pain of flesh and skin can be covered up.
"What's going on in the capital lately? Although Mu Qinyi under his realization can speak, he is very weak, and he must rely on Mu Chenghuang's strength to sit up straight.
Tian Wei paused, and said truthfully: "Since the disappearance of the prince, the Qin Wang army immediately sent troops to the capital, and now, Mu Gaoxian has broken through the outer wall of the capital, Mu Xiangbai took the Son of Heaven to retreat to the palace to confront Mu Gaoxian, the confrontation between the two sides has reached half a month, and Mu Gaoxian has not attacked for a long time. ”
After Tian Wei finished speaking, there was suddenly no movement inside, and just when Tian Wei raised his head in confusion, Mu Qinyi's voice came slowly: "Mu Gaoxian's non-attack may not be because he wants to force Mu Xiangbai to death, he originally spent all the treasury silver in Lingnan on the elixir of immortality, and he has been thinking of ways to find merchants in Jiangnan to ask for money, but now if he doesn't come, I'm afraid that Mu Xiangbai is not the only one who will run out of food." After Mu Qinyi finished speaking, he took a deep breath before continuing, "It's to solve me, it's to attack the capital in such a hurry, it seems that this raid has nothing to do with Mu Gaoxian, but he is afraid that he never thought that the matter of taking precautions, after all, this king did better than him." ”
