Uncle Qian, who usually gives them money, is an old man in the palace. He has been fighting for most of his life, has not married a wife, and naturally has no children, so he still lives in the palace when he is old. Uncle Qian is a kind person, seeing that these young people can't even spend money, he saves it for them, and then exchanges it for a silver ticket, saying that it is so easy to carry, and they can use it when they marry a daughter-in-law in the future.

People like them who either want to carry out tasks or soak in the battlefield have a life to go, and maybe they have no life to return, how can they marry a daughter-in-law? What girl dares to marry them? Mu Li thought so before, but now he ...... Now his mind has changed, he wants to stay in the palace and stay with the county lord.

If one day the lord of the county marries, he thinks that he will also ask the prince to let him go with the lord of the county. He wants to protect her safety and protect her from being bullied by outsiders for the rest of his life. Otherwise, I'm sorry for her affection.

She just said: No matter whether it is prosperous or troubled, she will do her best to protect her. A little girl can say this kind of vow, why can't he do it? Even if she can't keep it in the future, or forgets it, what does it matter, as long as he remembers it?

Mu Li didn't know that Nalan Jinxiu was a person who never made promises easily, but if he made a promise, he would definitely do his best to do it. In the future, they will have a long and difficult road to walk together, and she has never forgotten her oath, just as Mu Li is determined to protect her.

The county lord and the guards, in the eyes of outsiders, will be in the same boat because of their interests. He was ordered by the prince to protect her, and if she had made a mistake, he would not have been able to escape with his whole body. Only they know each other, even if there is no identity involved, they will protect each other. Because that's what they promised.

Ten days later, Pingcheng.

King Zhenbei successfully repelled Beiyan's troops in Pingcheng, thinking that after cleaning up the aftermath, he could go back to the palace to accompany his daughter. Unexpectedly, there was a plague in Heijo that night, and all the people in the village called Fukuwa Village began to cough. They don't suffer from an ordinary cough, because they cough up blood when they cough.

Li Yin saw that the situation was serious, so he went to the camp overnight, asked to see the king of Zhenbei, and told him about the situation. When the king of Zhenbei heard this, he did not dare to delay any longer, and sent a team of military doctors over, but the result was that the cause was not found, and the military doctors also fell ill.

Although the cause is unknown, the military doctors can also determine that it must be a plague. It's just that they can't find out how serious this plague is and why it started. Because I knew that it was a plague, it must be isolated, and the entire Fuhe Village was heavily guarded, and the people inside couldn't get out, and the people outside couldn't get in.

The most prosperous city in the entire northern Xinjiang is nothing more than Chiyang City, and the king of Zhenbei saw that the doctors in Pingcheng had no clue, so he had to go to Chiyang City to make a list. In order to solve the problem as quickly as possible, he wrote to Jinling and asked to send an imperial doctor.

Nalan Jinxiu has been raising in the house because the injury on her foot has not healed, and when she learned the news, it was already the third day of Zhang Bang. As soon as she heard that there was a plague in Heicheng, she was ready to go and see it, no matter how auspicious Ruyi tried to dissuade her. One is that she is a practitioner of medicine, and she is most needed at this time, and the other is that her father and brother are in Pingcheng, and she can't hide in Chiyang City by herself, she wants to be with them.

The commander of the guards in the palace saw that the county lord insisted on doing so, and he did not dare to stop it anymore. I had to fly the pigeon and pass the book to the son of the world, so that he could get an idea. If the prince and the prince do not agree to the county lord to go, even if they take the risk of committing the following crimes, they must detain the county lord in the Zhenbei Palace.

When the commander of the guard sent out a flying pigeon message, Nalan Jinxiu also sent one. confessed to Xu Jince that she was a doctor with excellent medical skills, and she was confident that she could solve the urgent need of Pingcheng. was afraid that her brother would protect her too much and not allow her to go, so he wrote another letter to the king of Zhenbei, with sincere and sincere words, which made it impossible to refuse.

Pingcheng's message replied quickly, and he agreed that the county lord would go to Pingcheng, but he would be escorted by a team of strong men. Ji Xiang Ruyi never left her, and in this case, he had to go with her. Nalan Jinxiu looked at the two weak and slender little girls, and felt that they couldn't do anything other than serve people. Bringing them away is just to give them suffering. So she refused very domineeringly.

When Nalan Jinxiu and Mu Li arrived in Pingcheng, it was just afternoon. Xu Jince led people to wait for them on the edge of the city, and as soon as they arrived, he rode to the carriage where Nalan Jinxiu was sitting and said hello.

"Brother, is the epidemic serious now?" asked Na Jinxiu as she lifted the curtain.

"So far, only that one village has been found, and it has been centrally isolated. The military doctor is now giving the whole city herbal medicine to prevent the plague, and the number of sick people is not increasing at present. ”

"Okay, you take me directly to the quarantine area, I'm going to see their symptoms. ”

Xu Jince looked at her worriedly, and said silently: "I don't know what my father thinks, but he agreed to let you come over." ”

"What my father did was not wrong, he and you can both go into battle to protect the northern frontier and kill the enemy, how can I, as a doctor, not even come to the epidemic area?"

"It's different, we have that responsibility. ”

"What's the difference? Are you a descendant of the Zhenbei Palace, am I not?"

Xu Jince felt that his sister was making trouble unreasonably, he shook his head, and said helplessly: "You know that I didn't mean that." ”

"What does my brother mean, I naturally know in my heart. You are worried about me, afraid that I will be infected with the epidemic when I come to the epidemic area, but we are a family, you and my father are here, and now we are in danger, how can I hide in the palace alone?"

"Our family is a loyal martyr, and I probably don't need to tell you what kind of life my father and I live. Guarding the safety of the people in northern Xinjiang and guarding the land of Daning is my responsibility and my belief. You're my sister, you shouldn't give anything more, I just want you to be carefree. ”

Her brother is both civil and military, and he has quite prestige in the army. Obviously perfect and impeccable in all aspects.,It's too much to spoil your sister.。 To what extent is it pampered, that is, I will give you everything you want, and what I want to give you must be the best.

Nalan Jinxiu felt that her father and mother in the previous life were already very spoiled by her, in addition to asking her to learn the rules, and asking her husband to teach her to be strict when she read and write, all the time they followed her. And Xu Jince's pampering made Nalan Jinxiu feel that even if Xu Jinsheng wanted the stars in the sky, he would definitely try his best to take them off for her sister. This kind of love is the ultimate indulgence, not limited by right and wrong.

"You better go and see your father first, he is tired these days and full of trivial things, if I see you, I will be very happy. ”

In fact, Xu Jince hoped that his father would be soft-hearted after seeing his sister, and he was reluctant to let her go to the epidemic area. Besides, none of the military doctors sent before have been able to come back, which shows that this plague is extremely contagious, and if Sheng'er really goes, I don't know if I can get out smoothly. It's important for them to meet now.

Although Nalan Jinxiu really wants to go to the epidemic area immediately, her parents are above everything else after all, just like the ancients said that filial piety comes first. She couldn't guarantee that she would be so lucky every time to be the one to end the plague. But as long as she knew, she wouldn't sit idly by.

When he arrived at the camp of the king of Zhenbei, he had been on the battlefield for a long time after all, and his attitude was quite calm. Just told my daughter to be more careful in everything. Even if you can't find the cause and can't come up with a way to control the plague, there will always be a solution. As long as she doesn't get infected with the plague, she can come out safely.

Nalan Jinxiu originally planned to go to Fuhe Village alone, and she had already done the protective measures that should be done, even if it was not foolproof, it would not be too risky. Mu Li was resolute and wanted to go with her no matter what.

Nalan Jinxiu thought of the previous conversation between the two, so she didn't drive him away. She went to Fuhe Village this time mainly to observe the state of the people infected with the plague, and if she could, she wanted to find out the root cause of the plague. Otherwise, no matter how much you protect it, you won't be able to cure the plague, and it will eventually spread.

When she entered Fuhe Village, she went to see a few of the most serious cases. At first glance, I was shocked, this was almost exactly the same as the plague in Jinling City back then, the only difference was that people infected with the epidemic would cough up blood. The plague in Jinling City should not be as serious as this one.

Good people are coughing weakly, and the appearance of running out of oil and lamps makes people feel sad. If they can't prepare the antidote as soon as possible, then they will probably die. Fuhe Village was wrapped in the breath of death from the inside out, and the people there had begun to despair, and Nalan Jinxiu seemed to be their last straw. They hope she can save her.

Nalan Jinxiu knew that prescribing them ordinary prescriptions now would not work at all, so he didn't waste the medicinal materials and went directly to check the food and water sources. This village uses mountain spring water, and this river is called the Doma River, which can be said to be the moat of northern Xinjiang. Because it is living water, the people of the whole northern Xinjiang are protected by it, drinking its water, and it is endless.

Since it is living water, it has to pass through so many cities, but only Fuhe Village is infected with the epidemic, so it is definitely not a problem of water. Nalan Jinxiu squatted by the river, using his hands as utensils and scooping water to drink. The water of the Doma River was very sweet, and there was a very natural sweetness, and she sighed with satisfaction.

She went to check the food of the people in the village again, and everything was normal, but it was still unsuccessful. However, it cannot be said that there are no results at all, and the so-called disease comes from the mouth, which means that eating food will cause disease. If the plague was moved through the air, it could not be that only Fuhe Village was infected with the disease.
