79. 78 Lack of medicine

Sikong Jin walked into Feng Ling'er's room and saw the palace maid who was serving her kneeling beside the bed in fear. The medicine was placed on a small table next to the bed.

Feng Ling'er on the bed had a pale little face, her eyes were as red as a rabbit, her hair was scattered on her thin shoulders, making her more delicate, and a strong smell of medicine permeated the room, but the smell was not pungent.

Seeing Sikong Jin come in, Feng Ling'er's gaze could no longer be taken off.

She was sick and confused last night, and she subconsciously wanted to drag the man in front of her from Suri's nasty ghost. So she tried her best to hold on to Sikong Jin, but she didn't have much energy to look at him carefully.

His legs are really recovering from fΓΉ! His countenance was as handsome as ever. Those magnificent starry eyes looked deeper and more steady than before. In the past, he was high-spirited, but now he has more precipitation and heaviness that belongs to a mature man, which is even more attractive.

Watching him approach him step by step, Feng Ling'er's heart couldn't help jumping a few beats.

"Why don't you drink medicine?" Sikong Jin picked up the bowl and asked softly, "If your body doesn't drink medicine, it won't be able to bear it." ”

"What about the Eighth Prince?" Feng Ling'er bit her lower lip and asked tremblingly.

Sikong Jin's expression darkened, and he didn't answer her, but continued to say softly, "Drink the medicine first and take care of your body." ”

"No!" Feng Ling'er's heart sank faintly, "You say it first!" Did something happen to the Eighth Prince? ”

Looking at Feng Chi'er's pale face, Sikong Jin let out a long sigh, the person has passed away, and she can't hide it if she wants to, sooner or later she will know the result.

He lowered his eyes to the black potion in the bowl and nodded slightly.

"What's wrong with him?" Ignoring etiquette, Feng Ling'er slammed Sikong Jin's wrist. Her fingers were cold without a hint of warmth. made Sikong Jin even more worried.

How can such a delicate person, who is still sick, withstand such a blow?

"Ling'er, listen to me." Sikong Jin froze for a moment and said slowly, "No matter what happens in the future, this king swears today that as long as this king is alive, he will never let others bully you." This king will take good care of you. ”

"What do you mean?" Feng Ling'er even seemed to have the last trace of blood on her lips.

Sikong Jin tried his best to make his voice sound soft and low, "Eighth Emperor Brother, he died in the chaos. ”

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw Feng Ling'er's eyes roll, and he fainted.

"Someone. Doctor! Sikong Jin was startled, and hurriedly got up and yelled loudly.

The people in the room immediately panicked. The two palace maids who were kneeling on the ground hurriedly got up, rushed out together, and went in the wrong direction, the two of them collided together, and then immediately separated and hurried out.

After a while, the old lady was invited over.

"Mr. Hua, hurry up and take a look." Sikong Jin moved out of the way.

"Don't worry, prince." Seeing that there was a rare trace of panic on Sikong Jin's handsome face, the old lady shook her head silently, it seems that the prince's heart still can't let go of her. It's just that if the prince has her in his heart, what should Su Rui do?

Worried about worry, the old lady Hua still carefully checked Feng Ling'er.

"Go back to the prince." After the examination, the old lady Hua cupped her fists and said, "The Eighth Imperial Concubine is fine, but her body is weak, and she is shocked to hear the bad news, her body is weak and hot, and her meridians are not smooth, so she fainted." After the old man administered the injection, he should be recuperated with medicine, and he should recover slowly. ”

She's sad...... Sikong Jin looked at Feng Ling'er, who was lying on the bed without a trace of blood, and felt slightly bitter in his heart. If he didn't pull the Eighth Emperor Brother into the water, he shouldn't have sacrificed, and now only Feng Ling'er is left alone, and life is really sad. He had a sense of guilt in his heart, Feng Ling'er was like this now, and he couldn't bear to walk away.

After spending the old lady's medical needle, she glanced at Sikong Jin, who was sitting on the edge of the bed, and shook her head silently.

"Lord Wang, the old man will go back to dispense medicine first." Doctor Hua said.

"Hmm. Go ahead. Sikong Jin waved his hand.

The old lady withdrew from the door, and was about to go downstairs when she saw a thin figure at the end of the corridor.

"Princess?" Doctor Hua walked over, and he subconsciously looked back at the closed door behind him.

"I heard she fainted." Suri asked.

"Yes." The old lady looked at Su Rui with a little worry.

"The prince is inside?" Suri asked again.

"Yes." Although the old lady Hua was unwilling, she could only answer truthfully.

Su Rui's expression didn't seem to change, just nodded, "Then what can I help with?" She asked.

The old lady Hua glanced at Su Rui in surprise, could it be that the princess didn't know the past between the prince and Feng Ling'er, so very good. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel a little relieved.

"Mother, don't be tired. It's good to go by the old decay. The old lady said.

"I'm fine if I'm idle anyway." Su Rui said slowly, "Are you going to grab the medicine?" ”

"Hmm." Old Lady Hua nodded, "It's just this kind of thing, just do it." ”

"It's windy and snowy outside. I'll go with you. Suri said.

"How can you do such a thing." The old lady shook her head again and again.

"Actually, I'm bored in this inn." Su Rui said, "Master will take me with you." Teach me something. ”

Hearing Su Rui say this, the old lady sighed, too, lest Niangniang stay alone in the inn and think nonsense, it is better to let Niangniang follow her to grab and boil medicine, and it is good to have something to do.

Su Rui and the old lady Hua changed into heavy cloaks, but the wind and snow outside were so heavy that the umbrella couldn't hold it, so they could only put on another layer of robes to keep out the snow.

There are people in the town who are clearing the snow, but it is still difficult.

Su Rui and Liuli were helping the old lady doctor to move forward against the wind, and the three of them walked with difficulty in the wind and snow.

I finally found the largest pharmacy in the city, and the door was closed.

Ruri went to call the door for a long time before calling the door open.

"Guest officers, it has been raining for more than a month, and the remaining stock of herbs in the small shop is running out." The shopkeeper said with a difficult face. "That's why it's closed in broad daylight."

"It doesn't matter, you can find as many things as you can." Su Rui said against the wind and snow. Every time she opened her mouth, a lot of snow particles were swept into her mouth by the wind, and it was heartwarming.

"Okay." The shopkeeper looked at Su Rui and the others were all dressed well, and they shouldn't be bad people, so he opened the door and let everyone in.

"Don't hide it from the guest officer, it's not a small faux pas. In fact, there are already people who have begun to rob homes and rob food. So we have to be cautious. "After the shopkeeper let everyone into the room, he said apologetically." Our shopkeeper said it. If you don't let in if you don't know someone you know, you won't see a few people who don't look like bad people, so you will decide to let everyone in. There is really not much stock of medicinal materials, and a few prescriptions are given to the small ones first, and the small ones go to find out, if there is really a shortage of medicines, the small ones can't do anything. ”

"I'm tired of this little brother." Liuli took out the prescription and handed it to the shopkeeper.

The shopkeeper took the prescription and went to the medicine cabinet to look for medicine.

Suri's brow furrowed tightly.

This town should be a relatively prosperous place, if there is a rush for food here, then other places are afraid that there will be even more lack of food.

After a while, the shopkeeper walked back again, "Everyone, there are three medicines missing, what should I do?" Is this medicine scratched or not? ”

"What's missing?" Lady Hua asked.

"Missing angelica, poria and reishi." Shopkeeper said.

These three flavors are all valuable medicinal materials that replenish qi and blood, and although the effectiveness of the recipe is insufficient, it can still be used. So the old lady changed the three-flavor medicine again. The shopkeeper said that these three flavors are a little.

After the medicine was grasped, Su Rui asked the old lady to write a few prescriptions for common diseases, and asked Liuli to buy more medicines.

Neither Lady Hua nor Liuli understood why Suri was doing this. Except for Feng Ling'er, no one else in the inn was sick. But Su Rui has always been very far-sighted in doing things, so they didn't ask much, and bought everything they could and took it with them.

When the three of them went back, it was even more difficult to move an inch with large and small bags.

Stumbling all the way back to the inn, Su Rui and Doctor Hua tidied up a little and then squatted in the kitchen to boil medicine.

Suri sat on the side of the red-hot stove and sighed deeply.

"Niangniang has something on her mind?" Doctor Hua asked as she looked at the fire.

"Master, I'm just afraid that the Hu Kingdom will be in chaos." Su Rui raised his eyes and said softly.

"Why?" The old lady was taken aback.

"The wind and snow have already caused a shortage of food and medicine. If we continue for another month, I am afraid that people everywhere will start to be displaced. Su Rui rubbed his eyebrows and said.

"This ......," the old lady Hua was shocked, "does Niangniang want to discuss this matter with the prince?" ”

"He ......," Suri shook his head, "he should be able to think of it." "Sikong Jin looks very shrewd. It's just that he has been trapped by Feng Ling'er in the past two days.

"Did Niangniang buy a lot of commonly used medicines to prepare in advance?" Lady Hua asked.

"yes. It's better to plan ahead than to be able to get anything out of it at that time. Su Rui said, "Master also saw that the biggest pharmacy in the town is not in stock, but I am afraid that other small pharmacies will have no medicine to sell!" With such a heavy snowfall, the roads are blocked, and the herbs will definitely not be able to be transported in the same way as the grain. This is true here, and it is even worse elsewhere. This town is already relatively prosperous, and there are not many people, if it is the capital, I am afraid that the people in the city will soon run out of food. ”

The old lady was taken aback.

Hu also encountered such a big snowstorm when it was founded a hundred years ago, and that time almost shook the foundation of Hu State. Displaced people are everywhere, and there are robbers everywhere.

Suri's right. It's just that in the past hundred years, Hu has never encountered such a big snowstorm, so the consequences of the snow disaster have been slowly forgotten.

"So what do we do?" Lady Hua asked.

"I've already asked Ruri to take stock of how much else there is to eat and use in the inn." "Let the guards strengthen their defenses, too." ”

"I've inquired about a gang of bandits in the mountains around here. ”

"When did Niang Niang inquire?" Lady Hua asked.

"This morning." Su Rui said with a smile. Li Yan said that he was robbed, so he fell off the cliff, so I casually asked the shopkeeper. But I didn't expect that there was really a group of bandits here. It's just that he is usually more restrained, not harassing the people in the town, but just robbing small businesses in the past. So the people in the town turned a blind eye and didn't care. But now the situation is serious, and there is no guarantee that the bandits will not go down the mountain to sweep the town hungry. So I told Ruri to go down and strengthen the guards everywhere. ”

"I hope they don't come." Lady Hua shrank her head and said.

"yes." Su Rui replied faintly.
