Chapter Twenty-Nine: A Funny Interrogation

Sikong Tong thought that his father asked him to come to Chengguo, although he was to find out the internal information of Chengguo, especially the military deployment of Chengguo, so as to prepare for the invasion of the mainland in the future. But she doesn't want to marry someone in Chengguo casually, she wants to marry the best, worthy of her identity.

When Shen Yunche left the palace, he went to the barracks and did not return to his home all day and all night.

Although he resented his father's arbitrary arrangement of his marriage, he also understood that it was impossible to get his father to take back the holy decree. can let yourself marry someone you don't love, that's even more impossible.

Although he decided to be on that throne and could endure other things, he couldn't bear it except for Jing'er's related things, and he didn't want to endure it.

The emperor decreed that Shen Yunche would marry Sikong Tong, the princess of Liyue Kingdom, as the concubine in the spring of the next year.

Since the emperor's decree, Shen Yunche has not even returned to the palace, nor has he been to the early court for a day. He took his two children directly to the barracks, and sent the soldiers of the barracks to take care of them, and as for food, he found someone from the Huotou Army, invited a woman to join the Huotou Army, and made gruel for the children every day, anyway, the children have been weaned, and they can drink some porridge or drink some goat's milk. In short, he made a home in the barracks and planned not to return to the palace.

This news spread back and forth to other countries, and Ye Yeyi, who was in Rongjiang State, knew the news first, and ordered the people in the Prime Minister's Mansion not to spread the news indiscriminately, otherwise the family rules would deal with it.

However, Ye Xi had already heard the news in the pharmacy, and after she heard it, she was calm. Anyway, there is no relationship between her and him, as for who he wants to marry? That's his business, it's none of her business.

After Ye Xi almost finished visiting Yuling City, she began to plan to open another pharmacy in Yuling, also called Borentang.

A few days later, the little emperor received a war report from the northwest border, saying that a huge group of sand bandits had appeared on the northwest border, and they were burning, killing, looting, and killing innocents indiscriminately in the northwest territory.

The little emperor told everyone about this matter in the court today, and the main thing in the court today is to discuss the trouble of the sand bandits on the northwest border, and who should exterminate them.

After discussing in the court for several hours, they finally came to a conclusion and sent the king of Chaoming to the northwest border to kill the gang of bandits.

Zhong Licong took over the matter and prepared to reorganize the army in a few days and set off for the northwest.

This time, Zhong Licong wanted Ye Xi to be the accompanying chief imperial physician and follow him to the northwest to treat people.

Zhong Licong told the little emperor about this, although the little emperor was worried about Ye Xi's safety, but he believed that the sixth emperor uncle would not let Ye Xi be in danger, after all, her identity was to marry someone who was close to the Xidi Kingdom, and she was still a princess.

Ye Yi knew about this, and he resolutely disagreed, but in the end, under Ye Xi's soft grinding and hard foaming, he still agreed to this matter.

Ye Xi thought to herself, she went to the northwest, not only to treat people, but also to enjoy the charming scenery on the road, she didn't want to stay in this Yuling Palace all the time waiting for mold.

Ye Yi couldn't resist Ye Xi's daily "bombardment", so he had to compromise. After a few days, Ye Xi rarely changed into men's clothes and went to the northwest border with the large army.

In addition to Ye Xi, there were five other imperial physicians, all of whom were imperial physicians from the medical bureau, three male physicians and two female physicians.

Ye Xi was in a carriage, and this time Yan Limei also followed her, and Yan Limei rode a horse next to the carriage.

Ye Xi pulled the curtain and looked at the endless snow around him, the white expanse, the thick white snow bent the tall trees one by one, and there were white snowflakes floating in the air.

Ye Xi secretly thought, it's a pity, there is no mobile phone, if she has a mobile phone, she will definitely take pictures of this beautiful scenery. Ye Xi really wants to freeze this beautiful moment forever. If she didn't hurry, she could have chosen to draw it.

Although she is not good at color painting, she has learned to sketch since she was a child, and she still paints people or landscapes very well.

After a day's journey, in the evening they saw a small river in front of them, and there was a clearing beside the river, and they set up camp in that clearing. There is a forest in the upper reaches of the river, Zhong Licong specially sent a pair of men and horses to guard there, after all, it can hide people there, it is the most dangerous place, and he also sent people to guard other places.

After the camp was built, Ye Xi lived in his own independent tent, and the largest tent next to him belonged to Zhong Licong.

The soldier brought in dinner, Ye Xi asked Yan Limei to eat with her, and after eating, she began to develop her own medicine.

After Zhong Licong finished dinner, he came to Ye Xi and saw that she was developing a new medicine.

He asked curiously, "What kind of medicine are you making?" What kind of disease is cured? ”

Ye Xi glanced at her, continued the work in hand, and looked focused, "This time I am going to exterminate the sand bandits, then many people will be injured and bleeding, so I plan to develop more medicines to stop bleeding and relieve pain, in case of accidents." She was seriously making the medicine and didn't look at Zhong Licong again.

Seeing her so attentive, Zhong Licong said in his heart, sure enough, there was nothing wrong with calling her, just with her love for medicine, it was right to bring her here, coupled with her dedication to patients, and her character of treating everyone equally, was the most important reason why he asked her to follow him to the northwest border.

At this moment, an arrow feather passed through the tent, whistling past, and flew straight towards Ye Xi.

Ye Xi was too attentive to notice it, Zhong Licong's eyes narrowed slightly, and he caught the flying arrow with his bare hands.

The arrow feather grazed Zhong Licong's hand, marking a bloody streak on his palm.

I only listened to his cold and cool tone and asked, "Who is on duty outside?" A group of rice buckets, the enemy has mixed into the barracks, and they haven't noticed it yet! What use does this king want you? ”

The soldiers outside had just discovered that a foreign enemy had infiltrated, and several lieutenants were sending people to investigate.

The lieutenant generals came to Ye Xi's camp tent and were about to return to the matter, when they heard the rebuke of His Royal Highness King Ming, they came in and knelt down, kowtowed and pleaded, "The last general will wait to see His Royal Highness King Ming!" See the princess! ”

The lieutenant general at the head announced, "Your Highness, there have just been thieves infiltrating the camp, and the last general will send people to check in the camp. ”

Then he looked at the princess, "Princess, the person who was the last general just now was not good for guarding, and I ask the princess to forgive me!" He pleaded with solemnity and composure.

Ye Xi shook his head, "The general is polite, you get up!" ”

Then she quickly took Zhong Licong's hand, with a serious expression on her face, "Poisonous!" She said two words lightly.

These words made the adjutant general and others who stood up tremble, His Royal Highness can't have an accident, he is the marshal of the bandits this time.

Ye Xi knew that they were worried, and said in a calm and confident voice, "Don't worry, he'll be fine!" She gave him an antidote to prevent the spread of the poison.

Then, Ye Xi took a silver needle and dipped it in a little blood in his palm, and the silver needle immediately turned black. Then, she took out a bottle and poured a little into her glass cup, which was a poison tester that separated the toxic content.

She put the silver needle into the glass cup, and then, the poisonous blood on the blackened silver needle immediately scattered, Ye Xi poured the scattered poisonous blood in the cup into a few small cups, and then took another few bottles of potion, she poured a drop of these bottles of potion into several small cups, and saw that they had different color changes, and understood in her heart what poison it was.

Ye Xi wrote down the ingredients of the poison, and then, began to make an antidote. When she saw that Zhong Licong was still here, she persuaded him to go back and rest.

Zhong Licong shook his head, "No need, I can't sleep anyway!" ”

In fact, he had severe insomnia symptoms, and when the situation was bad, he couldn't sleep for several days and nights, and when his condition was better, he could only sleep for one or two hours every night, and then he couldn't sleep again.

When Ye Xi heard this, he felt that there was something in his words. As she developed the antidote, she asked, "You don't have insomnia, do you?" She guessed in a tone.

In fact, this is not her guess, but after getting along with him for a long time, after all, a person is always sleep deprived, there will be obvious symptoms, although he looks very good, but if you look closely, you can still see that he has insomnia, but she can't guess how serious his insomnia is.

After half an hour, Ye Xi developed the antidote, handed him the antidote, and asked him to take it.

At this time, it was already quiet outside, and the adjutant general came in again, "See Your Highness, the last general and others have checked the entire military camp, and no suspicious people have been found!" ”

When Ye Xi heard this, he looked at the deputy general and kindly reminded him, "General, don't forget one thing, Yi Rong!" ”

The adjutant general's eyes widened, as if he didn't expect this stubble, he immediately sent people to check one by one, but there were still no clues!

Zhong Licong took the antidote, Ye Xi also bandaged his wounds, and he had to go out to check it himself.

Zhong Licong gathered everyone together, except for the guards.

He sat there, leisurely and complacent, with an indifferent expression, "Whoever takes the initiative to stand up now, this king will spare his life, if this king finds out, he will die!" ”

This king counts three numbers, one!

He counted them, then glanced at them indifferently.

Then he counted the second number, two!

Everyone was terrified in this oppressive environment, some even trembled with fear, and some were frightened and cried in low voices, but even so, none of them dared to squeak, because they were afraid of the people in front of them.

Zhong Licong looked at everyone coldly, and counted out the third number, three!

Seeing that no one stood up, Zhong Licong coldly ordered, "Everyone, take off your pants outside, immediately!" ”

Everyone doesn't know why, take off their pants, this cold day, are they going to freeze to death? They were skeptical. Everyone looked at each other with funny expressions.

The crowd obeyed and took off all their outer pants, leaving only the white pants in the style of shorts.

Zhong Li Cong hooked his lips and sneered, "You, come out to this king!" ”

So the little soldier walked out tremblingly, with a low brow and a pleasing gesture.

Zhong Licong's indifferent voice, "Raise your head!" ”

The little soldier silently raised his head, and Zhong Licong said resolutely, "The murderer is you!" ”

The little soldier was so frightened that his whole body trembled, knelt down and shook his head, and said desperately, "No, it's not a young general, Your Highness, please check clearly, no, it's really not a young general!" ”

Zhong Licong saw his eager defense, his eyes were as cold as a glacier, and his tone was arrogant, "Don't be in a hurry to explain, listen to this king first."

The reason why this king asked you to take off your pants is because outsiders have mixed into the barracks, and it is impossible to even change your pants, and your pants are obviously different from others. The more important point is that your hand, your palm, only the right hand has a thick cocoon on the tiger's mouth, but the left hand does not, which means that you have been using your right hand for many years to use the sword, not a spear or a halberd, and you need to use both hands. ”

After Zhong Licong finished speaking, everyone discussed, looking at the thick calluses of his hands, and looking at the hands of the little soldier, as His Royal Highness King Ming said.

The little soldier finally showed his true face, and he stood up at once and laughed loudly, "Hahaha! Worthy of the king, he found me so quickly! As he spoke, he tore off his disguised mask, revealing his true colors.

His arrogant posture was about to bite his lip and tongue to kill himself, but at this critical moment, Ye Xi threw a silver needle at him, and suddenly the person in front of him stiffened and couldn't move, let alone speak.

Ye Xi walked up to him and gave a thumbs up to Zhong Licong behind him, "Amazing, it didn't even take ten minutes to find out who was the murderer who wanted to assassinate me?" Admire, admire! Someone's exaggerated facial expression made Zhong Licong laugh involuntarily.

Ye Xi took a closer look at the assassin in front of him, with a look of pity, "Tut-tut! It's a pity, but you look good, but you want to harm me, otherwise, you tell me, whoever sends someone to kill me, I will let you go, otherwise ......"

She's here, hee-hee! Smiled maliciously.

Zhong Licong looked at her and smiled again, and had a negotiating tone, but in fact, if the threat was obvious, he seemed to know what she was going to do? The brighter and more beautiful she smiled, the more vicious and resolute she became.
