Chapter Seventy-Eight: Breaking Through the City Gate Is Impossible, But ......
Except for when she and Qin Mo raised the bar with each other, An Zaoyu has always been a kind girl, even Qin Mo has never seen such a heart-moving An Zaoyu, and she was a little scared to say anything.
Jiang Changxi smiled softly and tried to reassure her: "Sister An, don't annoy me, I'm really fine." Look, it's still the medicine you gave me......"
"I shouldn't have left you alone!" An Zaoyu got up and left: "You're fine, I'm fine, okay!" ”
"An Zaoyu!" Qin Mo couldn't stop shouting, and he was also anxious: "Sister Changxi, don't be angry, she is just worried about you, and she has no other meaning." ”
"I'm fine." Regarding An Zaoyu's sudden abnormality, Jiang Changxi could also see Qin Mo's anxiety, and persuaded Qin Mo: "I'm a little tired and want to sleep for a while." Sister Qin help me chase after Sister An, and apologize to her on my behalf. ”
Seeing that Jiang Changxi really looked very tired, Qin Mo knew that she must have been treating and saving people day and night like the strange illness incident last time, and he was indeed worried about An Zaoyu in his heart, so he reconciled two more sentences, let her rest at ease, and chased out to find An Zaoyu.
When all the people in the room were gone, Jiang Changxi's shoulders that he had been holding on to collapsed, and his elbows were propped up on the table, so as not to let himself fall.
"Girl." Qingrong stood beside her, looking at her appearance and feeling distressed, and persuaded: "Don't be sad, Doctor Ping, they know underground, and they will also be uneasy." ”
"I'm not sad, what right do I have to be sad." Jiang Changxi turned his head and tilted his head slightly, not letting the tears in his eyes flow out. She forced herself to cry: "I haven't avenged them yet." Who is it, the idea of setting fire to the hall, it is definitely not a temporary idea, there are definitely people behind it. ”
"Qingrong, let people investigate, and they will definitely give justice to Dr. Ping and those innocent and tragic deaths."
Tianshuitang still has some power in Pingzhou City, and the people set fire to the hall in an uproar, and it is not a secret, Qingrong let people go out to inquire, and soon there was an echo.
It was Dr. Liao's back and forth, because Dr. Ping and the four medicine boys died tragically in the fire, and everyone who worked in Tianshui Hall in Pingzhou City took three days of vegetarian food.
"I don't know who spread the rumor in the south of the city, saying that the bone plague spreads quickly and cannot be cured, so it can only be burned down. But because everyone was alive, the governor was afraid that he would take on the trouble, so he moved them all to the south of the city. ”
"The land in the south of the city is poor, and the poor gather, if they are all infected with the bone plague, the state officials only need to seal it off and report it to the imperial court, which is basically a dead end. People are afraid of death, and the people in the south of the city have no ability to sue the state officials to the court, so they can only let them fish and meat. Rather than this, it is better to fight to the death. ”
"The rest of the girls will know." Steward Liao took Su Chenxiang's recipe and came back too late, the fire was out of control, and Dr. Ping and several medicine boys all turned to ashes.
It's hateful that the state officials didn't do anything, except for the fire brigade, there was only Qin Shixiao left with the Qin State Mansion and a few guards who came to Pingzhou to suppress the troublemakers there, but where could they be suppressed, Qin Shixiao was kicked several times in the chaos, and his body was bruised.
"Who did the rumors first come from?"
"There are a few people found, but when the second son of Qin led someone to look for him, the person was already dead."
As an unexpected result, Jiang Changxi closed her eyes, she gritted her teeth and hated, hating those ignorant people, but she also pitied their ignorance and harmed others.
"The subordinates see that the second son of Qin has been investigating this matter, and has already set the object of suspicion on the bandits from Lizhou, and the group of bandits heard that they have broken through Qucheng and will soon be forced into Pingzhou."
Jiang Changxi has been silent, and Shopkeeper Liao is no longer sure if she is listening, but he still has something to say: "No matter how big the conspiracy is behind this fire, and how sad the girl is, Pingzhou City will be fought." Girl, now that there is no bone plague in Pingzhou City, please leave Pingzhou as soon as possible. ”
"I'm leaving." Jiang Changxi eased her emotions and said, "I'm going to Lizhou." ”
"To Lizhou?" Shopkeeper Liao hopes that Jiang Changxi will leave Pingzhou, but he definitely doesn't want her to go to Lizhou: "Girl, the imperial court has issued a lockdown order, and Lizhou can't go!" ”
"Lockdown? When was this? Jiang Changxi made up her mind to go to Lizhou, because Lizhou may be the birthplace of the bone plague, she was worried that the Lizhou army would be infected, and she was worried that the cold would not leave, but she never expected that the situation in Lizhou was so severe that the imperial court had issued a closure order!
What does that mean? It means that the white bone plague in Lizhou has broken out, it means that the doctors and doctors over there are helpless, and it means that the imperial court is not very sure.
Jiang Changxi panicked, and Shopkeeper Liao also panicked, he didn't expect that Jiang Changxi was deceiving him, and he was stupid not to admit himself? Shopkeeper Liao has the heart to kill himself.
Qingrong also has the heart to kill Liao's shopkeeper. It's her fault, she shouldn't have let Shopkeeper Liao come over and talk back!
"Girl......"
"Talk back!" Jiang Changxi is not easy to fool, Qingrong didn't dare to disobey her, and Liao's shopkeeper didn't dare to reply: "Two days ago. ”
It's been two days, it's been two days!
No wonder, no wonder An Zaoyu's mood is so abnormal, she is afraid that she will already know about the affairs of Lizhou, so she will be restless.
If he hadn't been sitting on a chair, if he hadn't been holding the table with one hand, Jiang Changxi would have fallen to the ground: "Why didn't you say it earlier?!" ”
Jiang Changxi couldn't wait for Shopkeeper Liao's answer, and asked Qingrong to pack her things, she was going to Lizhou now.
"But girl, after the fire in the hall, Pingzhou was also closed." This means that unless there is a warrant from the general, you can't get out of Pingzhou City.
In this way, Jiang Changxi could only go to Qin Shixiao to find a way, but how could Qin Shixiao let Jiang Changxi go to Pingzhou.
"I can't help it."
"You have." Jiang Changxi stopped in front of Qin Shixiao and didn't let him go: "Second brother, I know you have." ”
"How can I have it." In the past few days, all kinds of accidents have followed, Qin Shixiao has to investigate the spread of rumors, suppress the people to make trouble, and guard against bandits pressing the realm, but here in Pingzhou, he has the order of the prince, and Pingzhou cannot become the capital. There are no his personal soldiers here, and there are state officials and local clans to suppress them, and some things are also powerless.
What's more, no one knows the current situation in Lizhou better than him, how could he let Jiang Changxi take risks.
"Second brother, I must go." Jiang Changxi was stubborn, and he always was: "The hall is on fire, and there is nothing." I can't save Dr. Ping, I can't save Xiao Zhang Xiaofang, I can only watch them die. I'm a doctor, but I can only watch my patients die. You know how it feels? Powerlessness, guilt, grief, I even hated myself for why I left that day, why I didn't guard them. ”
"It's none of your business, Sister Changxi, it's not your fault." Qin Shixiao wanted to comfort her, but all the comforts he said became a fluttering cloud again, he couldn't calm her emotions and calm her remorse.
But he didn't dare to let go and let her go.
He was afraid that if he didn't see it, the danger of Lizhou would make him lose her.
"That's what I'm telling myself. It has nothing to do with me, I tried my best to save people, but natural and man-made disasters are not something I can control. The human heart is beyond my control. ”
"But second brother, if I don't go to Lizhou and Lizhou City dies, how can I appease myself, I can't even find a reason to deceive myself."
"But even if you go, will Lizhou City be saved immediately, won't the city die?" They all know very well that this is half and half odds.
"Even if I don't have the skills to go back, at least I've been there, I've worked hard about it, I've paid for it, I have a clear conscience."
"A clear conscience?" Qin Shixiao muttered these four words, and he looked at Jiang Changxi, as if for a long, long time: "Just for these four words, you want to even put your own life into it?" ”
"I don't want to spend the rest of my life feeling guilty and uneasy. Besides, I'm not going to take my own life. Bone plague. No, all the Gu poisons in this world have no effect on me. Jiang Changxi said.
When Qin Shixiao heard this, he was shocked: "Why? He knew that the Gu poison in Southern Xinjiang was weird, unpredictable, and insidious, but he had never heard of anyone who was immune to all Gu poisons.
"I can't explain it either." This is Jiang Changxi's biggest secret, and it involves too much, so she can't say it for the time being: "But please believe me, what I said is true." By the way, just the case of the corpse of the heart-ripping girl, that day in the village Qingrong and they all fell into the heart of the heart Gu, I am fine, and this is also the reason. ”
Qin Shixiao had heard Xiang Liangqing say this, and he was also curious at the time, but Xiang Liangqing asked Jiang Changxi and didn't say anything, so he didn't ask any more.
Now that I think about it, if this is the case, it can be explained.
Qin Shixiao still relented in the end. Not only soft-hearted, but also sensible.
In fact, he knows very well that Jiang Changxi seems to have studied the white bone plague quite well, if it weren't for the fact that this fire burned all the patients in Pingzhou, Jiang Changxi would have developed an antidote to the white bone plague sooner or later. Now that Pingzhou has no bone plague, she can give full play to her strengths when she goes to Lizhou, and even has a chance to save the entire Lizhou, and there are ......
There are also Wang Ye and An in the early years, and his two brothers, but now they don't know how.
"This is a long way to go to Lizhou, and the road is far away......"
"I have Qingrong and Liao's shopkeeper, I will go to Panzhou first, Qingsong is there, and the three of them are here, and I will be able to ensure that I get to Lizhou safely." Jiang Changxi said immediately.
“…… So you've thought about it a long time ago? Even if I don't let you out, you still can't break through the city gate? Qin Shixiao was deeply helpless.
"Naturally, you can't break through the city gate, but the mountain people have their own tricks......"
What answered Jiang Changxi was Qin Shixiao's slap.
Qin Shixiao couldn't rest assured that Qingrong and Shopkeeper Liao would escort Jiang Changxi to Lizhou, and he planned to transfer a few more people to escort her.
