Chapter 243: The Times Are Unpredictable

Han Lin

Not surprisingly, at noon, An Yi received the news that Liaoying had sent someone to invite the dinner.

It stands to reason that An Yi had already mentioned to Xiao Yan'er yesterday that she planned to withdraw from the camp and return to Lanzhou, but Xiao Yan'er didn't seem to understand the matter at all, and sent the invitation to the dinner party to An Yi's table on time at noon every day, and always said that this was the last time, so it was regarded as a send-off.

There is no way to be comfortable, after all, the contract for peace talks has been signed now, how can it be said that Xia Liao and Liao are now "allies" who trust each other, it's not good for others to keep them again and again but pack up their things and leave, right?

Besides, on the order of Anyi, Gao Ciyi's Tanma did not find any other movements of the Liao people around, and Anyi even regretted it a little now, he should listen to Gao Ciyi, the prescription should not be given to the Liao people so early, and now he is fine, and he is not in a hurry to return to the dynasty when he is sick.

"Uncle."

Outside the tent, I remembered a slightly low voice, An Yi was thinking about the matter of the trade department at this time, and he didn't pay attention to it and thought it was Gao Ciyi, so he made a noise and let someone come in, but he didn't know that it was the court judge who came to Han Lin with him for peace talks.

"How are you? Is there anything wrong with the court looking for me? ”

The court judge stepped forward and replied, "Uncle, that Meng'an in the Liao camp died this morning. ”

"Dead?"

An Yi was a little surprised, he knew that what the court judge was talking about was that before the third peace talks that day, the Liao camp suddenly fell ill, and afterwards the court judgment said that it was the Liao camp Meng'an who had been sick for a long time.

But at that time, An Yi remembered very clearly, the next morning, Meng An's illness had subsided a lot, why did he die a few days later?

He asked with some confusion: "I remember that the envoy of the Zhao Academy said before that this recipe is divided into physiques, is it that the medicine we newly prepared does not conform to the physique of the Khitan people?" ”

An Yi's main concern is that the Liao people don't think that there is a problem with the prescription given to them by Daxia because of this matter, and then they will make peace with the peace talks that they have worked so hard to negotiate.

The court judge shook his head, and first gave An Yi a reassurance, "Uncle, don't worry, it's not because of this, the two prescriptions we gave to the Liao people, judging from the news fed back by the military doctor over there, are very effective, so this sudden sudden death of Meng An did not make the Liao people feel that it was a problem with our prescription." And ......"

The court judge paused, then raised his head to look at An Yi and said, "And he died of cold and heat." ”

"Heat?"

An Yi's worried face softened slightly, and he said, "Dying from the cold and heat has nothing to do with us, right?" ”

The court judge didn't seem to know how to answer Anyi's question for a while, and after thinking for a while, he replied: "Uncle can't say that, I happened to be in Liaoying when this Meng'an became ill, and I discussed some details of the epidemic prescription with their military doctor, so that Yan'er girl called me over to have a look at it at that time."

Because the symptoms are more obvious, including their military doctors and me, they all think that it is just a general cold and heat, and the prescriptions prescribed are also cold and fever prescriptions, it stands to reason that the Liao people are very strong, and the general injuries and cold and fever are not a big deal at all, but only two hours later, when I was about to return to the camp, I heard the news of his death. When he went back to look at it, Na Meng'an was already dead on the bed, and he was indeed a person who died of cold and fever. ”

An Yi heard the meaning of the court's judgment, and asked him, "So you suspect that it has something to do with the epidemic?" ”

"That's right."

The court's verdict seemed quite categorical, but An Yi didn't quite agree with him.

"Fire and water are ruthless, epidemics have no eyes, none of us can be sure of this kind of thing, right? You can't say that he died after the epidemic, just because of the epidemic, right? He was cured of the disease, and that was something we can see at the time. How? Are the Liao people planning to talk about this? ”

An Yi and the court judge are the two of them are immortals at all, and what they say is not on the same point, An Yi always wants to ask the Liao people if they plan to use this as an excuse to have some thoughts about the peace talks, and the court judge is really talking about the matter and discussing the epidemic.

The court judge also seemed to have discovered this, and hurriedly explained to Uncle An: "Uncle, you misunderstood what I meant, I just said, the Liao people didn't think it was our prescription, and the military doctor and I over there agreed that it was cold and heat, which is nothing to say." It's just that I'm worried that this won't be an isolated phenomenon, it may be because of the cold and heat caused by the epidemic, and this cold and heat has no effect under the action of the two herbs that treat the epidemic and the cold and heat. ”

An Yi understood the meaning of the judgment, "Do you think that many of our people who have been cured will be infected with this kind of cold and heat?" ”

The court judge nodded noncommittally, "Not only those who have been cured, I am worried that many people who are healthy and healthy may have been slightly infected by the epidemic, but those who have not broken out because of the problems of herbs and their own physique may also be infected with cold and heat, and if all Langzhong will be treated with cold fever at that time, they will die." ”

After An Yi listened, the trace of worry that had just dissipated between his eyebrows shrouded again, and he frowned and turned around and paced two steps in the tent, and continued to ask: "Can the court judge know that there is a way to distinguish this kind of cold and heat?" That is, how can we tell if those people have this kind of cold and heat? ”

The court judge thought for a moment, then shook his head towards An Yi, and explained in his heart: "I'll give you an example to my uncle, just like our soldiers on the battlefield, everyone has armor on their bodies at the beginning, and the armor can protect our soldiers from the rain of bullets and arrows. But suddenly, because of an epidemic, the armor on our soldiers is gone, and at this time, even if it is a small bruise in the past, it will be bloody.

The same is true of this cold and fever disease, not that the cold fever itself is dangerous, but that the patients after the epidemic are like soldiers without armor, who have not yet recovered, and have no resistance to cold and heat. So from the point of view of discrimination, this disease is originally cold and heat, and there is nothing to distinguish. ”

An Yi originally wanted to ask if there was a cure now, but when the words came to his lips, he swallowed back,

It's not nonsense, if there is a cure, then Meng An will not die.

It's just that he didn't ask, but the court judge spoke first,

"This situation has been seen before with the old hospital envoy, because the epidemic was rampant at that time, so we didn't put too much effort into it, we drafted a method, but because it was too dangerous and it was not verified, so it was shelved."

"Too dangerous?"

An Yi looked at him, "What kind of sinister method?" Can you elaborate on the court's decision? ”

"That'...... Does Uncle know about the vine? ”

An Yi nodded, how could he not know? It was the kind of highly toxic medicinal materials that Zhao Yuan's envoy said in his mouth at that time that he was particularly lacking, and it was also an important part of the prescription for this epidemic.

"It will be a miracle to grind the vine into a sap, then dilute it with water, and give it to people who have been replaced with cold and fever after the epidemic. However, the uncle should know that this vine itself is poisonous, and its juice is even more poisonous, if you encounter a patient with a weaker physique, it is very likely that typhoid fever is gone, and life will be gone. ”

"Hmm."

An Yi let out a light "um", "That's why you didn't take the risk to give that Meng'an a try?" ”

"Yes, if something really goes wrong, the Liao people will be left with our mouth."

This court judgment made An Yi feel that his medical skills were not bad, and he didn't have the kind of flexibility that Zhao Yuan made him feel good, so he deliberately opened his mouth and praised: "Yes, you did the right thing, I don't know the name of the court judge?" ”

The court judge bowed respectfully towards An Yi, "If you go back to your uncle's words, your surname is Li, and your single name is a full character, and Chongzheng has entered the Tai Hospital for thirty-four years." ”

"Good, good!"

An Yi smiled at him and nodded, and then ordered: "Li Yuanju, in this way, you write this matter clearly in its original form, including pharmacopathology, one will be sent to Lanzhou Tai Hospital to leave, and one will be sent to Chengdu Shu King, so that they can also know the reason as soon as possible and prepare early." ”

"Yes, uncle."

"Alright, you go get busy."

After speaking, Li Yuanju bowed to An Yi and turned to leave.

It's really a wave of unsettled waves, this epidemic has just passed, and the cold and fever have come again,

An Yi really sighed, why is God just unwilling to let go of this barren land? After this illness, there have been countless * scattered families and deaths, and the cold and heat behind it will undoubtedly make the rest of these people who have survived the catastrophe worse, alas! It's not good for a bad year.

Just as An Yi was still lamenting the injustice of God, Gao Ciyi returned to the camp in armor and went straight to the big tent of An Yi, the steps under his feet were in a hurry, and it seemed that there was something important.

"Brother, I just received news from Hu Yuhua, and the Liao people are really restless!"

Gao Ciyi pushed open the curtain and entered the camp, of course he didn't have so many courtesies as Li Yuan, and he always had something to say when he came to Anyi, after all, if he talked about humility, Anyi should first arch his hand and call His Royal Highness King Huai.

"What's wrong? You speak slowly. ”

An Yi saw his hurried appearance and knew that something was wrong, he hurriedly took the teacup on the table that he was going to drink for himself just now and handed it to Gao Ciyi, asking him to breathe a sigh of relief.

Gao Ciyi still cared about drinking water, handed a letter in her hand to An Yi, and looked at the words on it that should have been written by Hu Yujuan.

"Brother, Hu Yuhua came to report, they found a lot of traces of camps and bonfires less than three miles away from Lanzhou City, presumably someone camped here, and also saw countless marks of people's feet and horses' hooves on the ground, Hu Yuhua said that he counted at least 10,000 people roughly."

An Yi put the two thick big knife eyebrows between the bridge of his nose, took the letter, and lowered his head while looking at it, and said to himself in confusion: "Is Lanzhou a military transfer again?" It's impossible, we're here for peace talks, and if there's any action over there, we should also receive Jiang Shang's letter. This northwest realm can come up with tens of thousands of horses except for Daxia is the Liao, if we don't act, then it means ......"

When An Yi looked up at Gao Ciyi again, he even had a feeling of tearing,

"That means the Liao are transferring troops?"

Gao Ciyi also noncommittally agreed with An Yi's opinion, and then continued: "That's right, I think so too, and Hu Yuhua also grabbed the tongues of a few Liao people with a stick, and asked from their mouths, it was the generalissimo Han Guangde who came to the peace talks at that time and personally dropped the soldiers, but these tongues he caught were not from the former army, so I don't know how many people were transferred away." ”

An Yi let out a sigh of relief, staring at the outside of the tent with a somewhat solemn look, and his fingers tapped on the table with the sound of bells.

"Han Guangde, he didn't deal with any urgent matters in the army at all, he just went back to transfer troops! No wonder I said that Yan'er feasts and feasts every day, all of them are smokescreens for us! I'm afraid she's also secretly deploying troops and horses now, and she wants to keep us here! ”

An Yi's brows furrowed deeper and deeper, and he began to carefully connect all the things in the past few days, but the more he thought about it, the more cold sweat broke out behind his back, counting nine cold winters as if he was sweating like the dog summer, but he couldn't feel the slightest heat in his heart.

However, Gao Ciyi was still a little kept in the dark and didn't understand the meaning, and asked An Yi suspiciously: "Brother, how did they hide from our sentinels when they transferred troops?" I don't quite understand what you said, what do you mean by Liaoren? Haven't we already made peace? What are they doing with us now? Is it a change in the peace treaty? ”

An Yi also didn't know how the Liao people's big move was hidden from Xia Jun's ears, but he knew in his heart that the Liao people's intentions were not to change the peace treaty at all!

"We have been tricked, the Liao people don't want peace talks at all, it's all fake, everything here is fake."

Gao Ciyi looked suddenly enlightened, "You mean...... The Liao people are ...... at all"

An Yi nodded heavily at him,

"Hurry up, go back to Lanzhou overnight, meet your father, and ask him to order Lanzhou to fully enter a state of combat readiness! Peace talks break down! Just go! ”

"I ..... Oh yes, yes, so what do you do? ”

An Yi looked through the window of the camp tent at the Liao soldiers on the other side of the river who seemed to be busy with the dinner, and then waved his hand to Gao Ciyi,

"You don't care about me, I have a way to get out with Jin Mingyin, you go back first to report the change, quickly! Now the ghost doesn't know if Han Guangde's more than 10,000 men and horses have arrived in Lanzhou City! ”
