414. Chapter 414: Higher Recognition
The Queen Mother suddenly sighed, and walked in front of the pot of Milan again, the flowers had already fallen, a pot of green and small leaves, looking green and lovely, she seemed to be in a much better mood: "Mama Rong, has there been anything new in the palace recently?" ”
"Back to the Queen Mother, there is nothing new, it's just that the crown princess hasn't come to ask for peace in the past few days, does the Queen Mother have any orders?"
"Didn't I tell her not to come? If she doesn't come, she won't come, the mourning family can't see her, but she feels more comfortable, isn't Concubine Xian's illness still healed? ”
"Concubine Xian doesn't seem to eat much, but she closes the door every day and still calls herself sick to the outside world."
"Well, you go and bring the purple ginseng of the mourning family and tell her about King Ning...... Do you know what to say? ”
"The old slave knew that he said, and naturally said that King Shou protected King Ning and arrived at the fiefdom safely, so that Concubine Xian could rest assured that the Queen Mother would make decisions for her if something happened." After Mama Rong finished speaking, she observed the Queen Mother's expression.
The Queen Mother nodded slightly, quite satisfied.
After Mama Rong came back, she replied that Concubine Xian was very grateful to the Queen Mother, and she would come to ask for peace if she was in good health another day.
"Is her body really weak?"
"Looking at the face, it is very pale, it must be true that King Ning left Beijing, and Concubine Xian was sad, but hearing the Queen Mother's care, she is much better."
The Queen Mother nodded slightly: "By the way, has there been an annual example in the palace?" ”
"Back to the Queen Mother, the year has not been issued. It is said that the treasury is empty this year, so it will have to wait a while. ”
"Then you go and take a look at the princess, see how her body is, you go in person, I'm afraid that others won't understand, if she needs anything, come back to the palace as soon as possible and tell me, let her rest well on weekdays, let Run'er not strangle her, if it weren't for her physical problems, she couldn't be angry, I really want to point out another daughter-in-law to Run'er......"
"Queen Mother, children and grandchildren have their own children and grandchildren."
"Yes, you have a point. The mourning family is waiting to enjoy the blessings, and it will take seven or eight months to see my great-grandson, so I can't wait...... Phew, look at what I'm saying. "How can this be in a hurry, they are all conceived in October, if it is early, it is not a good thing.
Let's talk about Oriental Brocade.
With 10,000 horses and horses set out from Beijing, he was vigilant, he knew that the road would not stop along the way, and those who wanted him to disappear now found a good opportunity.
Therefore, he was more careful all the way, and even more on the personal guard Li Shen and others to explore first, he can be regarded as in danger.
Of course, in the last few days, when he was staying, there were also two groups of assassins, but unfortunately he didn't keep his mouth alive, and Dongfang Jin was not injured, but he was even more angry in his heart, and he knew that Lei Tai's offense this time was likely to have another hidden secret, maybe he had a connection with someone in the palace.
If he is allowed to find out, he will not forgive.
It is not enough to deal with him, and he should not put the people in danger of fire and water for his own selfish interests.
The 10,000 elite soldiers went out with Dongfang Jin, and they all thought that the prince was young and feared that they would not be experienced, so it was likely that their party would not return, but after camping and living in the village, and killing assassins, coupled with the prince's behavior of being close to the people, everyone's impression of him slowly changed. I feel that the prince can be trusted.
When the large army arrived at Yueshan, it was two days away from Tai'an, and the spies who were going forward came to report that they had encountered the enemy.
I caught one of Lei Tai's spies, and after torture, I learned that a group of people had been ambushed on the road, waiting for them to enter the trap.
When the army was on the road, they actually got such accurate news, which made Dongfang Jin can't help but be suspicious on the one hand, annoyed on the other, and even more worried, since they have gone deep into Yueshan, isn't General An in danger?
If you interrogate again, the spies won't talk about it.
Dongfang Jin was very anxious.
This Lei Thai people are also too arrogant.
The spy was killed, and it didn't help, but fortunately, the spies sent by Dongfang Jin quickly found out the situation, and there were enemy troops in ambush in the mountain col ahead, about more than 10,000 people, which was exactly the same as the number of their team, and I don't know how to do it.
The mountain road is the only way, and there is no possibility of a detour, so you have to go through it anyway.
Looking at the towering mountain, Dongfang Jin felt that it was like a big stone, just pressing on his chest.
Fortunately, he immediately discussed a method with the lieutenant generals, found the local hunters, and took them to touch a trail in the back mountain, more than 100 people in the Oriental Brocade Belt, all of them are masters of the masters, and they are also the secret guards he trained.
The shouting of killing shook the sky, the two teams of men and horses in the valley were killed in the dark, and the killers who followed Dongfang Jin were also frightened by this tragedy, and did not take the opportunity to make trouble, but hid far away, when Dongfang Jin was dressed in a blood-colored robe and rushed to kill in front of the battle, a hundred responses, the enemy was quickly rushed to pieces, when the battlefield was counted, Dongfang Jin smiled, he only lost less than a thousand people, and the other party left more than 5,000 corpses, and more than 1,000 wounded soldiers, some of them escaped, this battle, Dongze Kingdom won completely.
Dongfang Jin stood at the foot of the mountain, and those soldiers raised their arms and shouted, calling him general.
This is more recognized than being called a prince.
Dongfang Jin only left 1,000 people to deal with the aftermath, and the army hurried away in the stars and moons, and he was worried that An Zhongtao's army had been ......
He didn't dare to think about it.
But if the army is still there, how did these people get in?
Riding on a horse, the bloody robe was not changed, and the fishy smell entered his nose, he wiped his face, but he didn't want to wipe the blood, and then looked at the soldiers around him, everyone had similar expressions, but those war horses were still full of energy, and their coats were bright, because there was no blood stuck in the valley, Dongfang Jin smiled secretly, if someone rushed to the night and met his own army, he would definitely think that the ghost soldiers were passing by, and he would be scared to death.
The next morning, when the light first appeared, they had already seen the mountain city of Taean.
I also saw An Zhongtao's army.
Vice General Zhang personally came to greet Dongfang Jin, and was surprised when he saw them: "Prince, how can it be so tragic?" ”
Yes, the originally handsome Dongfang Jin is now like a Shura in hell, and Dongfang Jin's first sentence is: "What about General An?" How is he doing now? ”
"General......" The adjutant general's face was sad, and he stopped talking.
Dongfang Jin's heart almost jumped out, he flew off the horse and grabbed Deputy General Zhang's shoulder: "Tell me, what's wrong?" General him? ”
"Oh, it's not what you think, the general is extremely weak now, he has been in a coma for most of the day, and the military doctor can't see the problem, this illness is really weird......"
Before he finished speaking, Dongfang Jin was already a zhang away, and quickly rushed into the barracks, only to find that the army did not start to attack the city, General An fell ill, and then, the battle stopped, those Leitai people may bypass the army, from another place they don't know the path of the road into the country, fortunately he brought 10,000 horses, this is the father's strong request to bring it, otherwise the consequences are really unimaginable.
Dongfang Jin rushed straight into the big tent of the Chinese army, An Zhongtao was lying on the bed, his face was pale, he called twice, but he didn't react at all.
Dongfang Jin asked the military doctor: "What is the reason?" ”
"The general looks like malaria, but the medicine has no effect after taking many pairs, and it is a little like typhoid fever, with a high fever and a cold fever, and now the whole symptom looks like ......."
Dongfang Jin raised his hand to stop his narration, he understood it, these people were not diagnosed at all, and they were here to tell fortunes!
"Li Shen, come and take a look." Dongfang Jin said in a deep voice.
The military doctor immediately stepped aside, and watched, his head was going to fall off several times these days.
Li Shen stepped forward and took An Zhongtao's vein, and opened his eyelids again, and there were two faint blue lines on the whites of his eyes, if he didn't look closely, he couldn't see it at all.
Dongfang Jin watched Li Shen's movements intently.
Li Shen's brows kept frowning, and after the inspection, he whispered: "Prince, the general has been poisoned." ”
"What poison?" Dongfang Jin didn't think about this possibility on the road, otherwise he wouldn't have deliberately taken Li Shen with him, compared to other secret guards, his kung fu is secondary, and his ability to detoxify and cure poison is extremely high, of course, it is not as good as An Tanran.
At this moment, he remembered An Tanran, and his delicate face appeared in his mind, and he was stunned for a moment, then came back to his senses and listened to Li Shen say: "It's Lan Kuixing." This kind of poison is rare, and it is very similar to malaria and typhoid fever at the time of its onset, and if you can't see the blue line, your subordinates won't dare to confirm it......"
"Can it be saved?" Dongfang Jin only cares about this issue.
"Yes." Li Shen replied very simply, "It's just that the subordinates need a medicine, and there should be one on the mountain near here, so the subordinates will go and collect it immediately." ”
"What is it? Why are you not around? ”
"It's a frog egg......"
Dongfang Jin glanced out: "It is estimated that this frog is asleep......"
"It's just right, it's what you want at this time, and the general should be saved." The more Li Shen spoke, the more excited he became, and he ran out of the city quickly.
Poisoned?
Dongfang Jin Zhilu said that the person who poisoned him must be the person next to him, so he had to be careful about all the food and use.
He must get the man out.
Dongfang Jin has been guarding An Zhongtao's side, Vice General Zhang came in to report the situation, Lei Tai has occupied Tai'an City, the city gate is reinforced, the people in the city are listed as hostages, from time to time they will be shown at the city gate, the relatives outside are worried, An Zhongtao did not fight here, he fell ill, he did not dare to start a war easily, there are more than 10,000 people in the city.
This news made Dongfang Jin have a headache, and he immediately spoke: "Li Shen......"
But I remembered that Li Shen went to find the antidote, but fortunately, Zhang Yun was there, and this was also one of his dead soldiers, and even An Ran didn't know what to do.
Of course, he didn't deliberately hide it, but he just felt that there was no need to announce it to the public.
"Zhang Yun, you go back to greet the follow-up team, and ask them to immediately count the number of captives and put them on the register, to see who they are and whether they weigh any weight." Dongfang Jin frowned, fortunately in this battle, otherwise he really didn't have any chips in his hand.
"What else?" Dongfang Jin asked Vice General Zhang.
