Chapter 92: The Loyal and Brave Minister
Ba Ji slowly found a place to sit down, he could see that his body was extremely weak, and his sharp gaze eased a little, "Lord Yi is famous, I have also led soldiers in Bing, but unfortunately I have never fought with you, if I have the opportunity, I really want to learn it." ”
"This king is waiting for you to be healed."
Ba Ji smiled bitterly, "This disease is very serious, I don't know how many chances there are to recover, if I can't say it, I'll die here," Seeing Duan Jingyi's eyebrows, he opened his mouth again, "Don't worry, Lord Wang, I won't blame you even if I die here, as long as you can promise to do me a favor, let me die now without regrets." ”
Duan Jingyi had already guessed seven or eight points in his heart, the envoy of Bing Yi came this time because his hometown was affected by the snow disaster, but he was unexpectedly trapped by the epidemic in Seoul, but they could wait for the people of Bing Yi Country to wait.
Looking at Duan Jingyi's uncurious face, Ba Ji was a little unsure if he was so powerful that he could really guess his intentions, but he still said it truthfully.
"The ice and snow are raging, I came to hope that the emperor of your country can lend a hand, but in this situation, you must not let me leave and go to the imperial city, so I also ask the prince to hand over the handwritten letter written by the lord of our country and the gifts he brought to your majesty."
Duan Jingyi has actually been waiting for this day for a long time, and only by letting them take the initiative can they hope to avoid a war between the two countries, otherwise the people of Bing Yi will be suspicious when they see that they have not replied to the letter for a long time, and they will speculate more about whether our country is acting in a way, and even more will doubt whether the envoys they sent have been killed by our side.
Together, these speculations are contradictions, and I am afraid that the two countries will meet each other sooner or later.
Duan Jingyi deliberately pondered for a moment before taking the post that Ba Ji took out of his arms, "General Ba's prestige has already been taught by this king, so there is no need for your country's gifts, this post will be sent to the palace as soon as possible, and you need to write another letter." ”
"I understand."
"General Ba agreed so happily, do you know what this king is referring to?"
Ba Ji breathed a long sigh of relief, took out another letter from his arms that had been prepared a long time ago, and personally got up and put it on the case in front of Duan Jingyi, his fingertips pressed the thin paper heavily, "Originally, I shouldn't have come this time, but Bing has already frozen to death and starved to death, many people have died, you are the only hope to save Bing, I can't let this matter go out of the way, only I am here to make you feel at ease, isn't it?" His excited eyes were red, and it took a while to calm down a little, and he choked up, "If you can ask the prince to let my brothers go." ”
A dark light flashed in Duan Jingyi's eyes, his eyes full of respect.
Ba Ji slowly raised his head and closed his eyes, "Please do it." ”
Duan Jingyi slowly stood up, looked at this famous general of another country, and his thin lips were cold and powerful, "Come on, send General Ba back to the account, take good care!" ”
Ba Jian suddenly opened his eyes and looked at Duan Jingyi in surprise.
The latter took the two letters into his arms, his expression was indifferent as usual but his aura was powerful, "This king will not take advantage of people's danger, and I don't believe that you can win me on the battlefield, so let's rest." ”
Ba Jian suddenly stood in awe of the person in front of him, and solemnly bowed Bing Qi before walking out of the military tent.
As soon as he went out, Tang Meng flashed in.
"Scared me to death, but I'm glad you didn't fight."
Duan Jingyi handed her a cold cloth soaked in cold water, "The next time you eavesdrop, go around to the north, not only is the south side sunburning, but your shadow is clearly reflected." ”
Tang Meng slapped him with a flat mouth, "Aren't I afraid that no one will pull you two when you two move, the south side is close to the door, and I can rush in as soon as possible." ”
Duan Jingyi smiled, and after taking back the veil, he served Tang Meng a cup of sour plum soup.
Tang Meng drank a fine drink and wiped his mouth with a grin, "By the way, what letter did you just want Ba Ji to write?" ”
Speaking of this, Jing Yi's eyes became heavy again, "Ba Ji is trapped here and can't move around, I'm afraid that the relief materials will arrive in the Bing Kingdom first, but the fact that the supplies have arrived but the envoys have not returned is abnormal, and it is not good that the Lord of the Bing Kingdom will accept our things and hate us for killing his envoys, so I want him to write a letter to report his safety, lying that he is traveling abroad or being delayed by something, so as not to meet the two countries in arms." ”
"It's not difficult, why does he think you want to kill him?"
"Although this letter can appease the Lord of the Ice Kingdom, it also means that the whereabouts of Ba Xue have become no longer important, not to mention that he is a famous general, if I really take the opportunity to kill him without knowing it and get rid of a strong enemy, wouldn't it be a good thing to kill two birds with one stone."
"I see," Tang Meng's eyes also became deeper, "That's why he took the initiative to invite Ying to come, just to exchange his life for relief materials!" ”
"Clever."
"This dedication to the country alone is worthy of admiration!" Tang Meng turned her head to look at Duan Jingyi, who was washing her veil, and her heart fluttered, and then she stood on tiptoe and quickly dropped a kiss on his cheek.
"Dreams?"
"You don't take advantage of people's danger, and you deserve admiration!" After speaking, before the man turned into a hungry wolf and pounced, Tang Meng slipped out of the tent.
Duan Jingyi looked at the thin figure and chuckled, and after a while, he returned to his original face and handed over the two letters with the secret letter reporting the situation in Seoul to the secret guard and asked him to send them to the palace.
Ling Qing appeared, "Lord Wang, Lord Song has a letter for you." ”
Duan Jingyi took it, his gaze getting deeper and deeper with the words.
"The prince is in trouble with the imperial city?"
"Song Ming said that a few days ago, during the census, he found a few people who had been to Seoul, and he moved those people to live in an empty courtyard at that time, and now more than ten days have passed, and those people have had fevers one after another."
"Isn't that also an epidemic in the imperial city!"
Duan Jingyi clenched the letter in his hand hard, and said after a moment, "Zhou Yu's character is beyond doubt, and the Jianghu tabloids have also received a lot of readers in his pen, telling Song Ming that Zhou Yu can be used when necessary." ”
"Yes!"
……
As soon as Tang Meng came out of the tent, she got into the center of a circle of medicine stoves, and the poisonous sun in the sky and the heat around her cooked her clothes in an instant, but Tang Meng didn't dare to relax.
At present, although the number of sick people has been well controlled, the number of people waiting for treatment is still full of several large tents, and only by stepping up the development of treatment drugs can the epidemic be completely controlled.
Tang Meng handed over all the acupuncture to the imperial doctors, and he soaked in the medicinal herbs day and night.
Most of the local sales in Seoul are herbs produced in the mountains, and the proportion of medicines from other places is not much, but fortunately, when she came, she asked Steward Chen to prepare a lot of medicines from the imperial city.
After two or three days in a row, Tang Meng was getting more and more anxious, and when she wanted to go back to the tent and get some more medicine to test, she was suddenly knocked aside by a guard.
The man was already panicked, and only after seeing that it was Tang Meng did he panic and speak, "Niangniang is not good!" ”
