Chapter 91: She's Jealous
Although the detoxification has a clue, it is still a little difficult to operate.
In the afternoon, Gu Jinli and Wei Liao were in the camp tent to develop intense prescriptions, which contained many medicinal materials, and the two had a dispute over whether to use them, so they wasted a lot of time.
It wasn't until the end of the day that a preliminary prescription was discussed.
Qi Hao immediately sent someone to buy all the medicinal materials, and then according to the original first step plan, the medicinal soup bathed.
Since it was uncertain that the prescription would actually work, one of the soldiers was experimented with first.
It's just that two hours later, the chill in the soldier's body has not subsided.
Therefore, Gu Jinli and Wei Liao could only think of other ways.
The sky was getting dark, and the moonlight was faint, reflecting the figures of the two of them on the tent.
Qi Hao stood outside, staring at her shadow quietly, with many indescribable emotions hidden in his eyes.
The night breeze blew, and his black hair fluttered in the wind, blending in with the thick night like his black robe.
He knew that going in couldn't help, and besides, he was afraid that his attention would always be focused on her, so it was better to be outside with her shadow.
Qin Feng had always been curious about the seemingly mysterious booklet, and couldn't help but ask, "Lord Wang, you said, where did Concubine Gu's medical book come from?" ”
Qi Hao glanced at Qin Feng coldly, as if he was blaming him for breaking the quiet atmosphere.
Qin Feng smiled and quickly turned around to inspect the other tents.
"Lord Wang, Concubine Gu and Imperial Physician Wei haven't had dinner yet, do you want to go down and prepare?" Du Jiang actually wanted to persuade Qi Hao to eat, but he wondered if he should eat, so he planned to start with Gu Jinli.
Sure enough, Qi Hao listened to it and said in a deep voice: "Okay, don't be too greasy with the food." ”
He didn't know Gu Jinli's eating habits, but when they had eaten together in the palace a few times before, she didn't seem to be very keen on meat dishes.
"That'...... Lord, what do you want to eat? The subordinates also went to prepare. Seeing that Qi Hao agreed, Du Jiang immediately said again.
"This king is not hungry." Qi Hao walked forward, his tone was light.
Du Jiang said tentatively: "Lord Wang, even if you don't have an appetite, how much can you accompany Concubine Gu to eat?" Otherwise, she and Imperial Doctor Wei would eat it alone, which would be embarrassing. ”
Qi Hao paused and said "um".
Silently entered the camp tent, Gu Jinli was pounding medicine, and Wei Liao was doing acupuncture on the other side.
Although the weather was not as hot as a few days ago, a fine layer of sweat appeared on her forehead because she had to keep moving.
A lock of hair fell from her baggy bun and floated to and fro on the side of her face.
Gu Jinli raised her hand and pushed it behind her ear a few times, but the hair always fell from time to time as if it was against her.
Just when she ran out of patience again and was about to drop the medicine pestle in her hand and get up to find a hair band, she felt that suddenly a pair of cold hands reached the back of her neck, passed through the three thousand hairs, and combed the disobedient hair behind her back.
Gu Jinli raised her head and looked at Hexiang who was also pounding medicine on the other side, and then was stunned.
Except for the half-dead soldier lying on the bed, there were only three people in the room.
Let's not say that Wei Liao is doing acupuncture, just saying that he is a man who can't cut her hair.
And Hexiang can't be, who could it be?
Seeing that Hexiang, who was usually calm, showed a rare look of shock on her face, Gu Jinli turned her head.
After seeing Qi Hao behind him, he couldn't help but widen his eyes: "Qi Hao? ”
Seeing that there seemed to be one less hairband in his hair, she subconsciously touched her hair again, only to see that there was an extra hairband of the same color as his.
"Lord Wang, the meal is ready." I have to say that the barracks in the barracks are very efficient, and the food will be delivered after a while.
Qi Hao naturally withdrew his hand, removed his eyes, and walked to Wei Liao's side with his feet: "Eat first, and then continue." ”
Wei Liao was too attentive just now, and after hearing Qi Hao's words, he reacted, "Yes, Lord Wang." ”
After Gu Jinli and Wei Liao washed their hands, they sat down opposite Qi Hao.
Although the food was a little more casual compared to the one in the palace, Gu Jinli was indeed a little hungry because she had been busy for so long, so the amount of food was more than what she ate in the palace.
Qi Hao noticed this, so he gave Du Jiang a look.
Du Jiang understood, and gave Gu Jinli another bowl of rice.
Gu Jinli didn't mind if another bowl of rice would affect her image, and continued to hold the bowl and eat slowly.
Qi Hao was in a heavy mood because of the poisoning, and he was full after a few bites, but because Gu Jinli hadn't put down the chopsticks yet, he sat with her and drank tea.
"Lord Wang." At this time, Qin Feng suddenly came in from outside, holding a beautifully embroidered black cloak in his hand.
Qi Hao put down the teacup and said coldly: "What's the matter?" ”
Qin Feng glanced at Gu Jinli and whispered: "The princess said that it was windy at night, and she was worried that you would stay in the barracks at night and get cold, so she sent someone to send this cloak." ”
A princess, a side concubine, Qin Feng always feels that women are troublesome, although Gu Jinli is not a person who takes the initiative to cause trouble, and Yin Suwan is also gentle and gentle, but he is still afraid that Gu Jinli will be jealous after hearing that Yin Suwan sent the cloak.
However, Gu Jinli didn't react at all, and still lowered her head and ate the rice in her bowl in a regular manner.
"Let's leave it there for now." Qi Hao's eyes dimmed, and he didn't show the slightest hint of joy, "Go to the Taifu Mansion and tell Wanwan not to worry about this king." ”
"Uh...... Be. Qin Feng was very puzzled by Qi Hao's attitude, after all, if this had been left in the past, Qi Hao would definitely have a gentle face, his eyebrows were full of spring, and his heart was full of joy, but now his expression was very calm, which made him very incomprehensible.
Du Jiang was the one who knew Qi Hao's mind the most, he looked at Qin Feng's puzzled expression, and shook his head helplessly.
If you want to say that the people who have been loyal to Qi Hao all these years, apart from himself, I believe that only Qin Feng is there.
It's just that although Qin Feng is loyal, sometimes his mind can't turn around......
After Qin Feng put down his cloak and left, Gu Jinli also put down the dishes and chopsticks, wiped the corners of her mouth, and said to Qi Hao: "Lord Wang, you can go back and rest first, and then send someone to inform you after I and Imperial Doctor Wei have developed the antidote." ”
For some reason, she felt that he was here to disturb her mind.
Even if he didn't say anything, did nothing, just sat quietly on the sidelines, it would make her feel uneasy.
Like just now, she didn't expect him to cut her hair.
The place where he had inadvertently touched the back of his neck still looked like a fever when I think about it now.
Qi Hao's gaze moved from Gu Jinli's face to the hairband on her head, and the corners of her lips couldn't help but rise, "Okay." ”
"Uh......" Looking at this smile like an iceberg melting, not only Gu Jinli was shocked, but even Imperial Doctor Wei was frightened.
However, just as Gu Jinli blinked, the smile on Qi Hao's lips disappeared.
Because, out of his eye, he caught a glimpse of the black cloak on the side. Wu Bait studied Qi Lin Si.
There was a hint of struggle hidden between his eyebrows, and he stood up and walked out of the tent.
The soldiers hurriedly put away the dishes and chopsticks, and in an instant, only Gu Jinli, Wei Liao, and He Xiang were left in the camp tent.
And, of course, the neatly folded cloak on the table.
Gu Jinli turned her eyes to look at the cloak, as if something was faintly stinging in her heart.
She couldn't say this feeling, but it was a little uncomfortable anyway.
Forcing himself to take his eyes off the cloak, Gu Jinli's tone was a little lower than just now: "Imperial Doctor Wei, let's continue." ”
Wei Liao nodded, and then the two of them got back to work.
He Xiang didn't miss the darkness that flashed in Gu Jinli's eyes, and suddenly an idea came to mind.
Originally, the prince brought the young lady to the military camp to detoxify the soldiers, but when they arrived at the gate of the military camp, the prince left them in the carriage because the young lady was asleep, does this mean that the prince cares about the young lady so much?
After the young lady woke up, she was stunned at first when she learned that Qi Hao had allowed herself to sleep in the car for half a cup of tea, and then there was a sparkling light in her eyes.
It seemed that it was the first time she had seen that kind of light in her eyes.
And the young lady stared at the cloak that the princess specially sent to the prince with such obscure eyes...... She's jealous?
Thinking like this, Hexiang couldn't help but glance at Gu Jinli a few more times.
"What's wrong?" Gu Jinli didn't know what Hexiang was thinking, so she asked while picking up the medicine pestle.
"It's nothing ......" Hexiang naturally didn't dare to tell Gu Jinli what she thought in her heart, so she could only squat aside and continue to pound the medicine.
Half an hour later, after Wei Liao went down a few weeks after the silver needle, he wiped a little of the medicine that Gu Jinli and He Xiang had just pounded on the wound of the poisoned person, only to see that the blood flowing out gradually decreased.
"Concubine Gu, it has an effect!" Seeing this, Wei Liao was very excited.
Gu Jinli's voice also had a slight tremor in it, "Imperial Doctor Wei, let's try to increase the dosage again!" ”
"Hmm!" Wei Liao nodded heavily, wiped some more, and really saw that the bleeding from the wound had stopped.
Reaching out to probe the soldier's pulse, Gu Jinli pursed her lips, and her brows, which had just been soothed, frowned again.
"Imperial Doctor Wei, although the bleeding has stopped, the pulse is still unstable, and we have to start from the root."
Wei Liao also knew that time was pressing, and said solemnly: "Xia Guan understands. ”
Gu Jinli took out the booklet and re-read it from beginning to end, and found that the content in it was no longer useful.
Closing her eyes, she began to search her mind for all the medical books she had read over the years.
"Concubine Gu?" Wei Liao saw that Gu Jinli suddenly stopped moving, and he didn't know what he was doing with his eyes closed, so he couldn't help but ask.
He Xiang made a silent gesture and whispered, "Imperial Doctor Wei, our young lady is thinking about things. ”
Just after Hexiang's words, Gu Jinli suddenly opened her eyes and blurted out: "Chongyang wood, jasper bamboo, tiger tail orchid, vermilion red!" ”
Wei Liao had never heard of these strange names one after another, so he asked, "Concubine Gu, what kind of medicinal herbs are these?" ”
Gu Jinli shook her head and said seriously: "I haven't seen it either, but I remember that it was mentioned in the book that these four medicinal materials are fire-based, so I thought of using medicinal materials with strong fire qi to fight against the cold qi in my body." ”
"Will there be any side effects?" Imperial Physician Wei thought about it and hesitated.
Gu Jinli was silent for a while, and said in a low voice: "It's a medicine that is three parts poisonous, and there must be side effects." Let alone...... These herbs are inherently toxic. ”
After a pause, she said again: "But, Imperial Doctor Wei, can the situation be worse than now?" If we can't think of a way to detoxify, all the soldiers in this Dongshan military camp will die, which is undoubtedly a hammer for our country. ”
"On the contrary, let's take a gamble with God, and there may be a chance to win!"
Her voice was neither big nor small, but it carried an uplifting power that made people can't help but believe what she said.
Qi Hao stood outside, and her heart couldn't help but be moved by her words.
You know, that's about hundreds of thousands of lives, how can a woman Gu Jinli have such a decisive and decisive spirit?
"Lord Wang, do you really want to follow what Concubine Gu said?" Du Jiang also heard the conversation inside and asked with a heart.
didn't wait for Qi Hao to speak, only to hear Wei Liao's voice sound again: "Concubine Gu, this matter is very important, and the lower officials can't be the masters, so let's find the prince to decide." ”
His life and death were small, and he didn't dare to risk the lives of so many people, so he arched his hand and got up and walked out of the camp.
After seeing Qi Hao outside the tent, Wei Liao repeated Gu Jinli's words and said, "Lord Wang, the lower officials are all under your orders." ”
Qi Hao pursed his thin lips lightly, looked deeply at Gu Jinli's shadow on the tent, and said after a while: "Listen to her." ”
Wei Liao looked up at Qi Hao in disbelief, "Listen to Concubine Gu?" ”
Du Jiang also hesitated: "Lord Wang, Concubine Gu is not a doctor after all, in case ......"
"She's right, at worst, she can't escape the word 'death'. Since there is no antidote, the whole army may be wiped out, so it is better to fight! The hand hidden in the sleeve was slightly clenched, and Qi Hao's voice was loud and powerful.
Gu Jinli, who was in the tent, trembled when she heard his words.
He...... Do you believe in yourself like that?
Du Jiang is right, even if she is a little interested in medical skills and has read a lot of medical books, if she really caused so many people to die because of herself, how can she live in her heart?
Just when she began to waver whether to go out and tell Qi Hao to think of other ways again, she heard Qi Hao say in a deep voice: "Du Jiang, go find medicinal materials!" ”
Afraid that Du Jiang would forget, he added: "Chongyang wood, jasper bamboo, tiger tail orchid, vermilion red." ”
Gu Jinli's eyes moved slightly, and an unknown emotion appeared in her heart.
The name of the medicine was word-for-word, and it turned out that he had heard everything he had just said to Wei Liao......
Du Jiang took a deep breath, nodded, tapped his toes, and flew away.
These four medicinal herbs not only have strange names, but even the places where they grow are all in places like cliffs, jungles and swamps.
Therefore, Du Jiang will not be able to come back for a while.
However, Wei Liao and Gu Jinli couldn't wait to waste time, and now they could only continue to make medicine to stop the bleeding for the soldiers.
Qi Hao was even more tormented by the cloak sent by Yin Suwan, and then looked at Gu Jinli's heart, so he still stood outside to blow the night breeze after Du Jiang left.
The chill in the night wind gradually blew away the boredom in his heart.
When it was about the same time, Du Jiangcai came back with a package on his back in embarrassment, panting and said, "Lord Wang, give it." ”
Qi Hao saw that he had several injuries on his arms and legs, and frowned, "What's the matter?" ”
Du Jiang's face was a little pale, and he reluctantly smiled: "Zhu Dinghong actually grew next to the python's nest, so his subordinates were a little injured when they picked it." ”
"Let's go down and bandage the wound first." After Qi Hao dropped this sentence, he turned around and went back to the camp.
He stroked his hand at the curtain and slowed his steps.
Gu Jinli probably hasn't rested since she came to the barracks, and the old injuries on her hands have not healed, so she is overworked, and she has fallen asleep against the table at this time, and she is still holding a medicine pestle in her hand.
Looking at Hexiang again, her eyelids also drooped, and she looked drowsy and didn't seem to notice that Gu Jinli was asleep.
And Wei Liao didn't have eyes behind his head, so it was impossible to find the movement behind him.
He was probing the pulse with one hand and sticking a needle with the other.
Qi Hao lowered the curtain, walked to Wei Liao's side, and then handed him the medicinal herbs, and said in a voice that could only be heard by each other: "The medicine is all ready, you go to dispense the medicine first." ”
Wei Liao was stunned, and was embarrassed: "Lord Wang, but my subordinates don't know how to use these medicines that Concubine Gu said, and how much to use." ”
Qi Hao glanced at Gu Jinli, who was tired, and couldn't bear to shout at her, so he could only push Hexiang.
Hexiang's body was agitated, and she woke up in an instant.
Seeing Qi Hao standing aside, he couldn't help but change his complexion, "Lord Wang." ”
Qi Hao asked, "Did she say how to use these four medicinal herbs?" ”
Hexiang nodded, "Miss said that because these medicines are also poisonous, they should not be used too much, and they should be boiled together with other medicinal materials." ”
Qi Hao nodded, and then asked Wei Liao, "Do you understand?" ”
"Yes, lord." Wei Liao endured a strong sleepiness and walked out of the camp tent with the package.
Qi Hao waved his hand to Hexiang, "You can also go down and rest." ”
He Xiang was worried about what Qi Hao would do to Gu Jinli, and said tentatively: "That...... What about Miss? ”
"She sleeps with the king." Qi Hao saw through Hexiang's thoughts at a glance, and it was rare that he did not get angry, but said meaningfully: "In today's situation, this king is not in the mood to do anything else." ”
Although Hexiang has not been in the mansion for a long time, she also knows that Qi Hao must be a person who does what she says, thinking that Qi Hao's camp tent is indeed the best among all the camps, and it would be good if she could let Gu Jinli sleep comfortably.
With a salute, she withdrew.
Qi Hao's eyes swept to the booklet, and he had a plan in his heart.
Gu Jinli told Wei Liao that this booklet was given by a friend, but as far as he knew, she didn't have many friends in Beijing.
To be precise, in addition to the two maids, as Gu Jinli, the second lady of the Gu family, she has been staying in the backyard of the Prime Minister's Mansion, with no personal contacts, and she never shows her face, where are her friends?
And the handwriting on this booklet does not match her handwriting, so it is impossible for her to organize it herself.
Lin Sheng went to her yard today, maybe Lin Sheng was in a good mood and gave it to her......
After putting away the booklet, Qi Hao bent down, carefully picked up Gu Jinli, and walked towards his tent.
In fact, the two tents were not far away, probably only three or four in between, but he walked very slowly.
It was the first time he had hugged her, and he didn't expect her to weigh even less than she looked on the outside.
It was like a fluttering feather, and he had to use some strength to hold it in his hand.
Because, afraid that she will be blown away by the wind.
After arriving at the camp, Qi Hao gently placed Gu Jinli on the bed.
In order to make it easier to pound the medicine and check the pulse, the gauze on her hand was also removed after getting off the carriage.
By the light of the candle flames, he found that her ten fingers were still red and swollen, and he couldn't help but feel heavy again.
After a moment's struggle, his big hand was on her little hand.
Noticing that Gu Jinli's eyelashes trembled slightly, he was even careful to breathe.
Seeing that she was sleeping peacefully, Qi Hao dared to put her mind at ease.
Taking out a purple jade bottle from his chest, he poured some medicinal powder on Gu Jinli's fingers, and a soft sigh overflowed from the corner of his lips.
Gu Jin ......" moved his lips, and he pressed the last sentence in his heart.
Standing up, he covered Gu Jinli with the quilt before leaving.
When the curtain was lowered, Gu Jinli, who had fallen asleep with her eyes closed, opened her eyes.
She looked at the quilt on her body and was stunned.
In fact, from the moment Qi Hao picked her up, she woke up.
It's just that she doesn't know how to face him, how to react to his sudden behavior, so she can only continue to pretend to be asleep.
It was an accident that he was holding her, and it was an accident of an accident to apply medicine to her.
When she heard him sigh, she wanted to open her mouth to find out why.
When she heard him call her name in a low voice, the incomprehensible emotion that she wanted to say and stopped making her heart tremble.
She suddenly felt a little puzzled, why was her mood affected by Qi Hao?
Could it be that because of the assassination a few days ago, he was protecting himself in a critical moment?
However, he did it just to treat Yin Suwan's leg!
Looking at his fingers, the medicinal powder that had just been smeared still exuded a medicinal fragrance.
The scent reminded her of the smell of his arms.
A faint Su Hexiang smells good.
patted her cranky brain, Gu Jinli pulled the quilt on her head in a depressed manner.
The time to wait for the antidote has passed too long.
At that time, Wei Liao finally brought a bowl of experimental green decoction to Qi Hao.
After the soldier took the antidote, not only did the bleeding stop immediately, his pulse gradually stabilized, his breathing was even, and even the frantic mood of the poison also stabilized.
After tossing for so long, it's finally done.
Wei Liao had two big dark circles under his eyes, and so did Qi Hao.
In such a situation, except for Gu Jinli and Hexiang, it is estimated that no one can sleep.
After Qi Hao sent Du Jiang to transfer some more people from the palace to help boil the medicine, he ordered Wei Liao to rest as well.
Wei Liao was indeed very tired, so he didn't shirk and went back to the camp directly.
"Lord Wang, you can rest quickly." Qin Feng looked at Qi Hao's eyes and said distressedly.
Qi Hao said "um" and lay down on the soft collapse next to Gu Jinli's bed.
In Qin Feng's heart, even Gu Jinli is not as good as Yin Suwan in the palace or in Qi Hao's heart, but she is already Qi Hao's woman, so it is nothing for the two of them to live in the same room.
"The subordinates retired." Arching his hand, Qin Feng walked out of the room.
Qi Hao looked at Gu Jinli's sleeping face on the other side, which showed half of her face, and closed her eyes with peace of mind.
At the same time, the main courtyard room of Nanyang Royal Mansion was also brightly lit.
Lei Zi saw that Chen Zexuan's face was gloomy, and whispered, "Shizi, what should I do now?" ”
Chen Zexuan's narrow eyes narrowed, and he said faintly: "This son of the world has calculated everything, but I didn't expect to miss a Gu Jinxiu!" ”
He thought that Qi Hao would go to Xiaoyaozi or others to come to the barracks to detoxify the soldiers.
However, he miscalculated......
As soon as the big hand was raised, the pen holder in Chen Zexuan's hand was shocked and flew wildly.
"The son of the world is angry, the coming days will be long, we will always have a chance." Seeing this, Lei Zi hurriedly comforted.
Chen Zexuan sneered, and said word by word: "The coming day is long, and this world can afford to wait!" ”
Lei Zi was shocked by the coldness in his eyes and shrunk his neck.
