Chapter 219: Returning the Gift

The candles were still lit in the tent, and Qingzhi was keeping her eyes open, not sleeping.

There was the sound of soft chatter in a nearby tent, with one person telling a story, and the occasional few words of experience or comment from others.

The story is about how the servant of a large family escaped from his master after being tortured to death, joined the barracks, and became a general step by step due to his excellent military talents, and finally married a princess and became a colt.

At the end of the story, the soldier who told the story said, "If the servant does not flee from his master's house, he will be a servant for the rest of his life, but because he escapes, he will become a general and a horse." ”

A soldier who listened to the story said: "After all, this kind of story is very rare, how many soldiers can be generals?" Even if you are a general, how many people can marry a princess? ”

Another soldier who listened to the story chuckled and said, "In dreams, everything is still possible, let's go to sleep quickly." ”

When the people in that tent stopped talking, they could hear voices from the other tent next to them, which were so low that they couldn't be heard clearly, and they sounded like two people with beds next to each other were talking.

Soon the sound of horses was heard, and someone in a nearby tent said, "They're back!" ”

Qingzhi didn't know who the "they" were in this person's mouth, and she didn't know anything about the plan of the imperial doctor to advise the crown prince Xiao Jin.

After the sound of horses stopped, there was a chaotic footstep. It sounds like a lot of people are rushing to some tents.

Soon after, calm returned to the barracks.

Qingzhi was thinking about falling asleep when he suddenly heard Lu Shikang's cough, and coughed more than a dozen times before stopping.

She was shocked, and said in her heart, could it be that he was also infected with a disease that was prevalent in the army?

However, she also understands that the cough can also be caused by other reasons, such as temporary irritation of the airways or airflow.

She thought to herself that if he was really infected, it was probably not her own infection, after all, she had been here for less than two days, and she was asymptomatic at the moment.

It is possible that he was infected by Imperial Doctor Lin, or Qi Fang and Wang Lu.

At the moment, he is weak, and if he really catches the current epidemic disease, I am afraid that it will be even more detrimental to his physical recovery.

She decided to probe his forehead.

Standing up, she walked to his bed.

When she arrived at his bed, she probed his forehead with her hand, and the temperature she found was still normal, the temperature of a normal person.

He had just put his hand on his forehead, but he suddenly opened his eyes and put his hand on his forehead as well.

He took her hand in his hand, then took it off his forehead and let go of her hand on the edge of the bed.

He continued to cough and said, "Doctor Kong doesn't have to pretend to be so concerned about this son anymore. ”

She bit her lip, "I...... It's just a matter of being a qualified doctor. ”

"Doctor Kong should understand that the injuries on my son's body are not worth mentioning."

She was stunned, and said in her heart, what he meant was that his physical injuries were nothing compared to the injuries in his heart?

He only knew that his own heart was hurt, but did he not know that she was also hurt?

But for now, she didn't want to say anything more.

Anyway, I'm going back tomorrow.

Since then, he has nothing to do with him.

She said: "Since Lu Gongzi's physical injuries are no longer in trouble, Dr. Ben can go back tomorrow with confidence." By the way, Dr. Ben forgot one thing he still owes Lu Gongzi. ”

With that, she left his tent, went to her tent, took out the box containing the droplet-like emerald necklace that he had given her in the Yuzhao Teahouse that day, came to his bed, and said, "This should be returned to you." ”

He turned his head to look at it, then turned his head over and said, "You just threw it away." ”

She put it on the low log stool in front of his bed and said, "Master Lu, your things have been returned to you, and my things should also be returned to me, right?" ”

She was referring to the bronze plaque.

I heard him say, "Throw it away." ”

She gritted her teeth, said no more, and left his tent.

Tonight, I was thinking of accompanying him for another night and becoming a qualified doctor, but now it seems that there is no need, and I am in a bad mood and I don't want to face him at all.

.

Day 2.

Early in the morning, before breakfast, she went to Prince Xiao's tent.

The wind was already cold that morning, but what was even cooler was her mood at the moment.

When I arrived at Prince Xiao's tent, I saw that he had already gotten up and was writing something on the table in his tent.

She stood outside the tent, bowed and saluted, and said, "Your Royal Highness the Prince, the grass people have already thought about it, and the grass people still decide to go back to Jiangbei City." ”

"Oh?" Prince Xiao stopped writing, raised his head, and looked at her, "This is Dr. Kong's final decision?" ”

She could hear the trace of disappointment in Prince Xiao's tone, but she knew that it was impossible for her to stay in the army at such a time, she pondered for a moment and said, "The reason why the grass people have made this decision is because in the grass people's opinion, there are both imperial doctors and military doctors here, which are enough to heal His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and your soldiers, while the patients in Jiangbei City need the grass people to go back and treat them." ”

"Isn't there any other doctor in Jiangbei City besides you?" Prince Xiao said.

"Of course, there is, but the grass people thought......" She didn't know how to continue, so she stopped.

Prince Xiao glanced at her, saw her embarrassed appearance, and said: "Doctor Kong doesn't need to explain so much, Gu is not an unreasonable person, since you have already thought about it, then you can go back, you need to be more careful on the road." ”

Qingzhi said: "His Royal Highness Prince Xie cares, and the grass people will be more careful on the road." ”

Prince Xiao began to bow his head and write again, and said as he wrote: "You go." ”

She left Prince Xiao's tent and began to go back to her tent to pack her things.

Actually, I didn't have anything to pack, just brought my luggage when I came.

As soon as he got out of the tent curtain with his luggage in his hand, he saw Wang Lu and Qi Fang come to Lu Shikang's tent again.

Wang Lu saw her carrying luggage in her hand and said, "Is Dr. Kong leaving?" ”

She let out an "um".

"Then Dr. Kong should be careful on the road." This was said by Qi Fang.

She said "um" again.

When I walked forward, I felt a little cold on my back.

Qi Fang looked at Dr. Kong's back and felt that there seemed to be something wrong with this Dr. Kong today, but it seemed that he had been not quite right for the past two days.

Wang Lu knew more about the truth, so he looked at Dr. Kong's back and sighed, he was relieved now, no one could interfere with the third prince's mood here.

After the two entered the tent of the third prince, they saw that the third prince was looking at the roof of the tent in a distracted manner.

"Third son?" Wang Lu called softly.

He didn't hear the third son's reply, so he stopped calling him, and when he looked down, he suddenly saw a box on the low wooden stool in front of the third son's bed.

"What is this?" Wang Lu asked.
