376. Brothers fight
There was silence in the tent, as if you could hear your own breathing. Several doctors stood aside, paying attention to what Nangong Mo needed help at any time. Although they didn't dare to take over King Yan's injuries, they had been military doctors for many years, and they still knew much more about external injuries than ordinary people. Wei Junmo sat not far away, his eyes lowered, and his handsome face was as cold as a jade carving. Opposite him, Xiao Qianwei stared at Nangong Mo's hand tightly, but he didn't dare to make the slightest movement, for fear of disturbing Nangong Mo.
Nangong Mo cleaned his hands before walking over, and used the dagger to cut open the clothes on King Yan's body, revealing bloody wounds. A jade pendant fell from his clothes, and Nangong Mo hurriedly reached out and pinched it to prevent the jade pendant from pressing the wound. The jade pendant was only an inch in size, and the best mutton fat white jade was engraved with delicate patterns, and Nangong Mo didn't have time to take a closer look at it, and directly cut off the tether, and pressed the jade pendant into the mattress under King Yan. Since it is something that King Yan carries with him, it must be more important, right? But... I didn't expect King Yan to wear such jewelry with his graceful and heroic royal demeanor. The thought in Nangong Mo's heart flashed.
From ancient times to the present, the gentleman is still jade. Later, both men and women, young and old, royal commoners liked to wear jade. But men generally wear jade pendants or jade wrenches and other things. I don't think anyone will bring a jade pendant. However, this jade pendant looks a little familiar.
This thought was only fleeting. At this time, she can't afford to be distracted by anything.
Pulling out the thin and sharp Xueliang short knife neatly placed on the side, disinfecting it with spirits, and then roasting it on the fire, Nangong Mo cut the first knife at the edge of the arrow wound. As soon as the knife went down, the person who was stabbed and the person who made the knife didn't do much, and the onlookers next to him couldn't help but tremble first.
Nangong Mo looked at the feather arrows that he had picked up from the battlefield before. Hairigu used the strong bow of the Northern Yuan, and the feather arrows were slightly different from those of the Central Plains. The whole arrow is made of fine iron, the arrow is in the shape of a four-cornered diamond, and there are air holes between the arrow and the arrow body, if it weren't for Wei Junmo immediately sealing several acupoints of King Yan, I'm afraid that there is no need to wait for anything else, just bleeding can kill King Yan. The feather arrow could not be sent back, so it could only be pulled back the same way, so that there were two more barbs, and the knife wound that needed to be opened on Yan Wang's body was twice as large as the ordinary arrow wound.
Nangong Mo took a deep breath, and his subordinates steadily stabbed the second time. Suddenly, more blood donations rushed out through the air holes of the feather arrows. King Yan also began to pour blood from his mouth. Everyone present suddenly panicked, "Star City County Lord?!" The prince ......"
"Father!"
"Shut up!" Wei Junmo got up suddenly, grabbed Xiao Qianwei, who wanted to pounce, and threw him behind him. Two steps stepped forward and stood beside Nangong Mo, "Flawless, don't worry." ”
Nangong Mo nodded and said, "It's okay." My uncle's internal wounds would collapse, and blood would flow into his lungs. ”
"How?" Wei Junmo asked.
"Get the blood out first." After speaking, he turned his head to a military doctor next to him and said, "Go and ask someone to prepare some sugar water and salt water." ”
The medic was pale, begging to leave even for a moment. Nodding in a panic, he stumbled out.
Nangong Mo picked up a thin tubular silver tool in the tray next to him, one head was sharp and bright. After pressing for a moment at the mouth of King Yan's heart, Nangong Mo did not hesitate to insert the thin silver tube heavily. A stream of blood spurted out quickly, splashing on the ground in front of him and on the upper of Xiao Qianwei's shoes not far away. Xiao Qianwei's face turned pale, and he couldn't help but take two steps back, but he couldn't hold back and didn't make any sound.
Several military doctors next to him were even more frightened.
After King Yan's breath calmed down a bit, Nangong Mo immediately began to use his knife to take arrows, he had just released so much blood, and there were no blood transfusion tools at this time, and his life would be in danger if he delayed it for a long time. Even if Nangong Mo could stuff the pill that replenished qi and blood into King Yan's mouth like a grain of sugar, it was impossible for the pill to immediately become real blood and replenish it into King Yan's body.
A quarter of an hour later, the feather arrow that had sunk into his chest was finally carefully pulled out by Nangong Mo. Nangong Mo also secretly breathed a sigh of relief. This time is different from the last time the soldier's injury was at the border of Youzhou, it was more dangerous than the last time Yan Wang, as long as he was not careful, he might hurt Yan Wang's heart, and even the gods would be difficult to save at that time. Moreover, Yan Wang was injured and poisoned, and his body was very weak. He couldn't bear Wei Junmo's internal force at all, as long as he entered the internal force again, he was afraid that King Yan would bleed to death through seven holes.
Wait until the wound is sutured with special threads, and then the medicine is applied and bandaged. Nangong Mo stood up, but he couldn't help but fall into Wei Junmo's arms in front of him.
"Flawless!?"
Nangong Mo opened his eyes and looked at his anxious purple eyes, and smiled reluctantly: "I'm fine... I'm just a little tired. Uncle is fine for the time being, don't worry. ”
Wei Junmo nodded, picked up Nangong Mo and said, "I'll send you back to rest first." ”
Nangong Mo was also really tired, nodded and leaned into Wei Junmo's arms and closed his eyes. Before he could go back to his tent, he was already asleep in a daze.
Nangong Mo slept until noon the next day, and she was really tired these days. When I woke up, I felt a little stiff all over my body. got up and got out of bed, twisted his body to move his muscles and bones, and saw Liu Han walking in with a fragrant meal.
"Childe is right, the county lord should really wake up at this time."
Nangong Mo rubbed his eyebrows and asked, "What time is it?" ”
Liu Han said: "It's already past noon, and the county lord missed breakfast, even lunch." However, Childe ordered me to prepare some for the county lord, saying that the county lord should almost wake up at this time. ”
Not to mention breakfast and lunch, even last night's dinner, Nangong Mo ate in a daze. I only remember being called up by Wei Junmo, and after a few mouthfuls of porridge, he went straight back to the bed and continued to sleep. After washing up a little, Nangong Mo walked back to the table, picked up the food sent by Liu Han and started eating. The hungry grunting stomach was soothed by a beautiful thing, and it was really much more comfortable all of a sudden. Nangong Mo's slightly frowning brows also expanded a lot because of this.
While eating, Nangong Mo asked, "How is King Yan?" ”
Liu Han shook his head and said, "The prince hasn't woken up yet." ”
Nangong Mo nodded and was not surprised, "The injury is too serious, and I also used some anesthetic, but I should wake up the day after tomorrow." "It's just hard to say what will happen when you wake up.
"Speaking of which, how did King Yan get hurt?" Nangong Mo only had time to ask about this matter at this time, even if Hai Rigu was the number one archer in Beiyuan, it would not be easy to hurt people in the hands of Wei Junmo, right? Liu Han naturally had already figured it out, and then sighed and said: "I heard from the people present that the Northern Yuan people started to attack Xiao Ergongzi, and when Gongzi went to save Xiao Ergongzi and was entangled, they suddenly attacked Gongzi, and the last arrow was shot at His Royal Highness King Yan." Those people in the Water Pavilion were really crazy, in order to prevent Gongzi from cutting off the arrows shot at His Royal Highness King Yan, they even used their bodies to block them directly. Two people were cut into two pieces by the sword qi on the spot. Delayed like this... His Royal Highness King Yan is also ......"
Listening to Liu Han's words, Nangong Mo simulated the situation in his heart and couldn't help but sigh, "Gong Yuchen is really scheming, I'm afraid I don't know how many times I have calculated this scene, right?" ”
Liu Han hesitated, looked at Nangong Mo and didn't speak. Nangong Mo raised his eyebrows, "If you have something to say, just say it." ”
Liu Han said in a low voice: "There is a brother from Zixiao Hall who said that at that time, King Yan might have allowed it to be opened, but... Xiao Ergongzi was standing behind the prince at that time, and he couldn't see the arrow shooting at all. If the prince had gotten out of the way at that time, the one lying down now might be ......"
Nangong Mo frowned, shook his head and said, "Don't talk nonsense, my uncle himself suffered internal injuries at that time. Hairigu's arrows... It may not be able to open more. ”
Liu Han shrugged his shoulders and said, "The county lord is right. "After all
After lunch, Wei Junmo still hasn't come back. Nangong Mo asked with some curiosity, "What is Jun Mo doing?" Liu Han said: "The prince is seriously injured, and the son is very angry." Ordered to hunt down Hai Rigu, and there was no mercy for killing. Now... It seems that he is discussing the details of the army with Xiao Ergongzi and the generals in the army. ”
Nangong Mo nodded, "This time... If there is no meticulous work in the army, it will never be possible. But have you got a result? ”
"Didn't General Chen Yu arrest Nianyuan before, it is indeed his most suspicious, after all, he came up with the idea of sneaking up on Siyang. However, he has always refused to admit it, only saying that he was wronged. ”
Nangong Mo raised his eyebrows and said, "So, are they discussing Nianyuan's matter now?" ”
Liu Han nodded, "Is the county lord going over too?" ”
Nangong Mo shook his head and said, "No, I'd better go and see Uncle Yanwang." ”
When I came to King Yan's big tent, there was a faint smell of medicine quietly filled with it. The two military doctors stayed on the side for a moment, for fear that something would go wrong. Seeing Nangong Mo come in, both of them couldn't help but show joy on their faces. After all, none of them dared to take arrows for King Yan at that time, and it was the county lord of Star City who completed what they couldn't do for them. It can be regarded as saving the lives of all of them.
"County Lord."
Nangong Mo waved his hand to signal that they didn't have to be polite, glanced at the person on the bed and asked softly, "How is it?" ”
The military doctor sighed and said with some concern: "There is no sign of deterioration in the injury, but the internal injuries of the prince and the prince's body are too weak. The most important thing is that because of internal injuries, many tonics cannot be used, how can this be good? If you keep being weak like this, you're only afraid... Even if the prince's external injuries are healed, people can't wake up. Nangong Mo walked over and checked the pulse, and could only sigh softly, and said, "Take your time, as long as you temporarily save your uncle's life, there will always be a way to slowly adjust the internal injuries and the body." It's a pity ......"
"What a pity?" The two military doctors hurriedly asked, "What can the county lord do?" ”
Nangong Mo shook his head with a wry smile, "Uncle's body is like a sieve now, no matter how good the tonic is, nine out of ten will miss it." "She has a lot of all kinds of healing elixirs, but the premise is that the human body can absorb it by itself, otherwise even if it is Taishang Laojun's golden pill, it will be useless.
"If there's a delicate fruit, maybe... It's a pity that the only Linglong fruit that I know so far was obtained by the Zhu family more than five years ago. In the end, it was used by the prince. ”
Hearing this, the two military doctors couldn't help but feel a little disappointed. Linglong fruit is a legendary thing, it can be said that it can be met but not sought, where is it said that there can be had? Nangong Mo just sighed casually, if he pinned his hope on the exquisite fruit that he didn't know where, it was better to count on the miracles from the sky.
I looked at the prescriptions drawn up by several military doctors, although the prescriptions for military doctor's conditioning and postoperative treatment were not bad. Nangong Mo nodded and said, "Let's use this recipe first." I'll think about the rest of the recipe. ”
"Then there is Lord Law." The two military doctors thanked in unison.
Nangong Mo smiled faintly, "It's just a matter of duty." ”
"County Lord." Outside the door, Jian Qiuyang's voice never came. Nangong Mo raised his eyebrows, "Qiuyang, come in." ”
Jian Qiuyang opened the door curtain and came in, and Nangong Mo asked, "What's the matter?" ”
Jian Qiuyang said with a smile: "I heard that the county lord has woken up, and the prince asked me to invite the county lord over." Who knew the county lord was here? Nangong Mo was a little puzzled, "Let me go?" So what's going on? "If it's just a matter in the army, Nangong Mo believes that Wei Junmo can handle it by himself, so why bother with her going over.
Jian Qiuyang shrugged helplessly and said, "General Chen is here, and the eldest son and the second prince are also back." I'm afraid I want to ask about King Yan's injury. ”
Nangong Mo frowned, "It's all gone, you don't have to fight?" ”
Jian Qiuyang smiled bitterly, "County Lord, the prince has been... Where does it matter if there is a war or not? General Chen didn't know about Pengcheng, and it wasn't in the way that he was about to rush back. On the Yundu side, Gongzi asked me and the two lieutenants to rush over to assist Nangong Gongzi immediately. ”
Nangong Mo nodded and said, "I know, let's go over." lest they be kept waiting. ”
The tent on the other side was quite lively, bustling with people. At a glance, you can see that these people are actually sitting in several camps. A large group of generals did it closer to Xiao Qianwei, another group was closer to Xiao Qianchi, and some were closer to Xiao Qianjiong and Chen Yu, Wei Junmo sat next to Chen Yu, as if it was divided into three pieces at once, but Nangong Mo understood that in fact, there must be more than three pieces.
Seeing Nangong Mo, Xiao Qianjiong hurriedly got up and gave up his seat, "Cousin-in-law, how is my father?" ”
There was a sudden silence in the tent, and everyone looked at Nangong Mo in unison. Nangong Mo said indifferently: "It's nothing for the time being." Xiao Qianjiong is a little worried, for the time being... That means maybe something will happen? Thinking of seeing his father's unconscious appearance in the tent before, Xiao Qianwei was angry, "Second brother, why are you running to the battlefield if you can't do martial arts?" If my cousin only protected my father, my father would not have been hurt! ”
Xiao Qianwei's face turned pale, gritted his teeth and did not speak.
Chen Yu sighed, "Third son, you can't say that. The second son is also eager to save the prince, not to mention... The second son was originally a general in the army, and it was natural for him to go to the battlefield. Who would have thought... The people of the Northern Yuan would be..."Xiao Qianjiong also knew that what he said was a bit excessive, and he gritted his teeth in annoyance and apologized, but he still couldn't say it after all.
Xiao Qianwei turned pale and said, "General Chen, the third brother is right. If it weren't for me... My cousin protects my father alone, and he will definitely not ......"
Chen Yu frowned, looked at Xiao Qianchi who was sitting on the side and sighed. Now is not the time to hold anyone to blame, but the three brothers should work together to support the great foundation of the prince.
"County Lord, I don't know... When will the prince wake up? Chen Yu looked at Nangong Mo and asked.
Nangong Mo sighed lightly and said: "Uncle was already injured internally, and Hai Rigu's arrow not only injured my uncle, but also completely shattered the previous internal injury. Chen Yu's face was also a little ugly, "Hai Rigu is known as the number one archer in the Northern Yuan Dynasty, and I heard that he can shoot through two horses beyond a hundred zhang. ”
The power of Hai Rigu's arrow Nangong Mo also understood, that day at the border of Youzhou, she took Hai Rigu's arrow from such a distance, and she was so shocked that one hand was sore for a long time, and that time Hai Rigu had not used all his strength. This time facing King Yan is obviously a must-kill arrow, and its power can be imagined.
Nangong Mo said: "If the situation is good, my uncle should be able to wake up the day after tomorrow." However......" Nangong Mo glanced at everyone and said in a deep voice: "You'd better be mentally prepared, it won't take too long for my uncle to wake up, and I'm afraid I won't be able to do anything." "If it's a pity, Nangong Mo doesn't want King Yan to wake up now, recuperating is what he should do now. Two extra days of sleep isn't a bad thing either. But Nangong Mo also knew that if King Yan didn't wake up, he was afraid that the army's morale would be unstable.
Chen Yu frowned and said, "In this way, in a short period of time... Even if the prince wakes up, he can't be a director? ”
Nangong Mo nodded, "So to speak." ”
"That's... What about affairs in the military? "It's impossible to be leaderless all the time. It is even more impossible for a few people to discuss and do the matter of marching and fighting and transferring troops and sending generals. If this is the case, not only will the army be disheartened, but it is more likely that they will fight openly and secretly, and go their own way. Therefore, it is imperative to find a person who can temporarily exercise military orders on behalf of King Yan.
As soon as Chen Yu said this, the atmosphere in the big tent suddenly suffocated again, and everyone looked at each other.
After a while, I heard a general say in a deep voice: "Since the prince is injured, the affairs of the army will naturally be temporarily replaced by the prince." ”
Chen Yu nodded and looked at the others. Wei Junmo nodded slightly, expressing approval. But not everyone can accept this result, "How can you be rash when it comes to hundreds of thousands of troops?" The prince doesn't know how to fight at all, so how can he temporarily handle military affairs on behalf of the prince? ”
Xiao Qianchi's eyes were slightly downcast, and he looked at the two younger brothers opposite without speaking. Xiao Qianjiong took it for granted and said, "That's right, the eldest brother doesn't know how to fight at all." ”
Sitting beside Wei Junmo, Nangong Mo couldn't help but stroke his forehead. If it weren't for the fact that he was in front of the public now, I was afraid that a slap would slap him directly on the head. Obviously, he has no intention of fighting for power, but he wants to get involved without knowing it. The general who was refuted was also a little annoyed, "The prince is the eldest son of the prince, and his name is justified, what's wrong?" So who do you say is more suitable? ”
Another general stood up and said, "If you talk about fighting, the second son is better at it, right?" ”
Hearing this, Xiao Qianjiong was even more unhappy: Doesn't this son know how to fight? However, he is not interested in dealing with the military affairs of those annoying people, he is interested in riding a horse and a knife across the battlefield, and the second brother does seem to be a little more powerful than the eldest brother. So Xiao Qianjiong did not object this time.
"No! The eldest and youngest are orderly, how can the second son cross the world? A man who looked like a Confucian stood up and said loudly, this person is one of the staff members around King Yan, and he is quite valued by King Yan. Although there has been a genius like Nianyuan by King Yan's side in the past two years, these staff members have not had many opportunities to show their faces. But being able to appear in this account itself proves that his status in the Youzhou Army is not low.
The person on the other side scoffed, "Orderly? If you destroy the foundation that the prince has worked so hard to build, what will you atone for? It should be the one who can live in it! ”
"Shit! How do you know that the son of the world can't fight? ”
"Huh? Isn't it possible to prove it in the past two years? "This has risen to directly mocking Xiao Qianchi, as a subordinate, it is really rude. In fact, Xiao Qianchi has not had no achievements in the past two years, but he is not so good compared to his two younger brothers. He was weak and not suitable for the battlefield, so most of the time he was left by King Yan to deal with some chores in the army. It wasn't until the quarrel between him and Xiao Qianwei that made King Yan upset, that the two of them were thrown away into Xue Zhenjun's army.
"Presumptuous! How dare you be rude to the son! ”
"You're presumptuous?! If you want to destroy the good foundation of the prince, what are your intentions? ”
"You ......"
Xiao Qianchi's expression stiffened and the generals on both sides quarreled, and his heart was even more troubled. Looking at Xiao Qianwei who was sitting not far away, Xiao Qianwei looked at his nose and nose as if he hadn't heard anything, but Xiao Qianjiong looked interested.
Xiao Qianchi sighed, looked at Wei Junmo and Chen Yu, and asked, "Cousin, cousin, General Chen, what do you three say?" Nangong Mo shrugged, held Wei Junmo's hand and said, "This is the matter of the Youzhou Army and the Yanwang Mansion, and we can't interfere." Sure enough, as soon as King Yan lay down, the fight between the brothers could no longer be hidden. Xiao Qianchi smiled bitterly, "My cousin-in-law said that I laughed, we are all a family." If the father had been awake, he would have said the same thing. ”
Chen Yu coughed lightly and said, "In this matter, we should not intervene as subordinates." I also hope that the three sons will be cautious for the sake of the prince's achievements today. If the three of us can work together, it will not be difficult for us to overcome the difficulties in front of us. ”
Chen Yu's words are actually very simple, if the three of them look at the fact that it is not easy for King Yan to start a business, they should each take a step back at this time, maintain the situation in front of them, and wait for the prince to wake up and make arrangements.
It's just that... Who can back down at such a time? At this time, you will be able to further grasp the power of the entire Youzhou Wei and take a step back... I'm afraid it's hard to say in the future. Even if they are willing to concede, are the generals behind them willing to concede?
Yan Wang... Will you really be able to wake up?
T
