Volume 1 Chapter 25 No Oranges

Lu Tianyao is still very famous in Zichuan County, he is a master of the nine layers of the day after tomorrow, invincible with one hand and eight arms, and the people in the rivers and lakes are called the eight-armed boxer.

He also fought for righteousness and wealth, often helped the poor, and also opened a boxing gym in the county town and accepted more than 30 apprentices.

Until one day, one of his apprentices accidentally disturbed Yan Xiao, a noble son who came to Zichuan to play, and was beaten to death by Yan Xiao's people.

Yan Xiao is a nobleman from Linzi City, his father is the deputy commander of the Left Guard Battalion of the Eight Gates Defense Division, and his sister is also the third lady of Muyangjun, the fifth monarch of the East China Sea.

The apprentice was beaten to death, and Lu Tianyao naturally wanted to ask for an explanation.

But for Yan Xiao, a pariah disturbed his horse, and it was already cheap for him to kill him, how could he take care of Lu Tianyao.

So, in a fit of anger, he taught Yan Xiao a lesson, and since then he has been married.

Yan Xiao was beaten, naturally he couldn't bear this breath, and in order to please this nobleman from the royal capital, the county commander of Zichuan County put Lu Tianyao in prison and broke his left leg.

Even so, Yan Xiao was still angry, one of his dog-headed military advisors got oligostone water out of nowhere and poured it into Lu Tianyao's stomach.

Not only that, but he also let the county order raid his home.

At this point, Lu Tianyao became a lost dog, and with the help of friends in the rivers and lakes, he fled from Zichuan County with his wife and daughter.

After exhausting their entanglement, they came to Linzi County and became homeless.

Fortunately, there is a friend in Linzi who helped them find a place to live here on Pozi Street, so that his wife and daughter would not be displaced with him.

After coming here, the toxin in his body was so deep that he couldn't even stand up, and he became what he is now.

After listening to his story, Xu Xiang sighed, this is a sick world, the aristocracy is high, and the commoners do not have any human rights. Lu Tianyao's matter is just a microcosm of this sick world, and there must be countless people like him.

"What do you eat every day?" Xu Xiang asked.

"It's probably some dry food, dough and stuff." Lu Tianyao replied honestly.

"What about the fruit? Oranges, pears and the like? ”

Lu Tianyao smiled bitterly, "Now that we are in this situation, where can I still eat these things." Uchiko's daily money is spent on medicinal herbs, and the two of them are hungry and full, and sometimes I even feel that my life is a burden, and it also affects the two of them. Lu Tianyao lowered his head and gently stroked Qianqian's head, looking very guilty.

"Daddy, Qianqian is not hungry, as long as Daddy is by her side, Qianqian is very happy." The little girl's immature voice made the whole room feel very heavy.

"Lao Yang, go buy more oranges." Xu Xiang sighed deeply, this vitamin C deficiency can't start with medicine, you can only try to supplement some vitamin C, and fruit is undoubtedly the best choice.

"Your Highness...... It's early March, where do the oranges come from? Yang Dianfeng said with an embarrassed face, oranges are the product of August and September, and there are no greenhouses in ancient times, and there are no oranges in this season.

"Damn! There's always a cucumber, right? Xu Xiang thought of another food rich in vitamin C.

"Uh...... Your Highness, what is a cucumber? Yang Dianfeng scratched his head and asked puzzled.

"it!" Xu Xiang patted his head, there is no such vegetable as cucumber in Huaxia. The era of this world is equivalent to the Spring and Autumn Period of China and the Warring States Period, and the cucumbers in China were brought back by Zhang Qian of the Han Dynasty from the Western Regions.

"The red dates, the peaches, the chrysanthemum, the bitter gourd, the beans, the potatoes...... Well, there are definitely no potatoes! Which of these things are there? Xu Xiang also said some vegetables and fruits with high vitamin content.

"Your Highness, these things are all except for the peaches that are not yet ripe!" Yang Dianfeng replied.

"Good, good! Buy as many of these things as you want, go and go! Xu Xiang breathed a sigh of relief, and finally found some ingredients to supplement Lu Tianyao's vitamin C.

"Your Highness, what are you?" Lu Tianyao looked puzzled and asked.

"I'm 80% sure I can heal you."

"Your Highness, don't comfort the villain, countless doctors have seen it, and there is no cure for the poison in the villain." Lu Tianyao said with a grateful look on his face.

"It's okay, it's okay to try." Xu Xiang smiled faintly.

Jiang Fu's mansion, he had just returned from the palace and discussed the drawings handed over by Xu Xiang with those craftsmen of the Ordnance Division.

The officials and craftsmen of the Ordnance Department were all professionals, and after reading the drawings and the real thing, they all agreed that what was described in the drawings, that is, muskets, was very likely to be made.

"It seems that it won't be long before I stop being afraid of Beimeng! Mu Jun, Mu Jun, the revenge of the Yun family, I will avenge it sooner or later! Jiang Fu read silently in his heart, and he couldn't help but think of Xu Xiang again.

"Xu Changsha has been in the East China Sea for three years, and he has always been decent and very low-key, why is he so high-profile this time? Since falling overboard, he seems to be a different person, acting completely opposite to the past! He frowned, puzzled.

"Could it be that he has been keeping his head in obscurity? If this is the case, then he must not be allowed to leave the East China Sea, and he must be firmly controlled in his hands! ”

As soon as he thought of this, he immediately shouted to the attendants waiting outside, "Someone! ”

"Your Highness, what do you command?" The squire outside the door replied respectfully.

"Has the person sent to follow Xu Changsha come back? If he comes back, bring him to me as soon as possible! ”

"Back to Your Highness, one of them came back and was ready to return to you, but the villain saw that you had just come back from the palace and were a little tired, so he wanted you to rest for a while, and didn't let him come to see you."

"No need to rest, now call him in!" Jiang Fu still cares about resting at the moment.

"Subordinate Ying Jiu has seen His Royal Highness the Great Prince!" After a while, a man in a power suit knelt in front of him.

"Get up!" Jiang Fu indifferently asked him to stand up, and then asked, "What is Xu Changsha doing?" ”

"If you go back to Your Highness, Xu Changsha went to Pozi Street after leaving the palace."

"Pozi Street? What is that place? In his impression, Linzi City does not seem to have this street.

"It's a place where untouchables live, it's shabby and dirty!"

Jiang Fu frowned, he couldn't imagine that a prince would go to that kind of dirty place, so he asked curiously, "What is Xu Changsha doing there?" ”

"It seems to be to see a person named Lu Tianyao." Kageix replied.

"Eight-armed boxer Lu Tianyao? Some people say that he is dead, how can he be found by Xu Changsha, what is he going to do? Jiang Fu was very puzzled, he knew the name of this eight-armed boxer, some people said that he was dead, why did Xu Changsha go to find such a person?

"Your Royal Highness, this matter has to start with the marriage of the princess and Nangong Que......" So Ying Jiu told the process of Xu Xiang and Lu Tianyao's family getting to know each other.

"The poison of the oligarchic water?" After listening to Ying Jiu's narration, he asked again, "Are you sure you heard Xu Xiang say that he wanted to help Lu Tianyao cure the poison of the oligostone water?" ”

"My subordinates did hear Xu Xiang say this!" Kagejiu replied earnestly.

"This is a bit interesting, even if it is an imperial doctor, there is no way to solve the poison of this black stone water. Why does Xu Xiang think like this? Is he sure? ”
