Chapter 784: Drought Eases the Enemy's Movement
The officers and soldiers presented the things they had found at Ge Pu's house, and Wan Lin took them and looked at them with Qi Hongkuo.
"This crossbow arrow is really exquisitely made, I can't imagine that Ge Pu still has such craftsmanship."
Wan Lin was talking about being amazed by Ge Pu's craftsmanship, and Qi Hongkuo's expression became a little strange.
"Why does this crossbow look familiar?"
Wan Lin said as a matter of course: "This crossbow arrow is the crossbow arrow used by Xiong Ersheng, it seems that they are really not lying, the crossbow arrow is indeed made by Ge Pu." ”
Qi Hongkuo shook his head and said with a little suspicion: "No, I'm not talking about this matter. I mean, this crossbow looks very similar to the one that was sold to Kijiki on the black market a few months ago. ”
The officer and soldier also said: "What Lord Qi said is right, his subordinates also participated in the interception of the black market weapons trade, and they have seen the batch of crossbow arrows sold to Jiji. The crossbow arrows found in Ge Pu's house were really exactly the same as those crossbow arrows. ”
"What? How could such a thing happen? Wan Lin was surprised, "Then the crossbow arrows of the Ge Pu family were not made by him, but part of the goods they got from that shipment?" ”
Qi Hongkuo said with a solemn face: "This will have to be interrogated again to know by Ge Pu." Quanling County is located just across the river from Jiji, and the river has dropped a lot because of the drought. If Ji Ji really wants to cross the river to Dachen at this time, it will be a good time! ”
After Qi Hongkuo said this, his back was shocked into a cold sweat.
Wan Lin was also shocked, and hurriedly said, "Quickly bring the map of Quanling County!" ”
Quanling County is indeed separated from Jiji by a river, but Jiji is also suffering from drought now, and if the drought in their country cannot be alleviated, they may make a desperate move to plunder Dachen.
Wan Lin thought for a while and calmly analyzed: "As far as I know, the soldiers stationed at the border of Quanling County are all the original subordinates of Zhenting Hou, right?" With them, Jiji probably didn't dare to take risks. After we alleviate the drought in Quanling County, the rear support will be abundant, and even if we fight again, we will not be our opponent. ”
Qi Hongkuo nodded and said, "What Lord Wan said is that disaster relief is still our top priority. Although there are still many doubts about this Ge Pu, it is not too late to interrogate him after the drought eases. However, we haven't found out about the ghost who colluded with the water thief, so I don't know if he will cause us any more trouble. ”
Wan Lin said affirmatively: "Lord Qi don't have to worry too much, that inner ghost is just colluding with the water thief, from the time we fought with the water thief to the present, that inner ghost should be carefully dormant and has not taken any action." But that doesn't mean we can forget his crimes, we'll definitely find him out! ”
Wan Lin persuaded Qi Hongkuo not to rush to interrogate Ge Pu for another reason.
He was afraid that if Ge Pu really had any connection with Jijiguo, then there would inevitably be no eyeliner of Jijiguo in this county government.
They might as well put this matter aside first, so that others think that they are still focusing on disaster relief, and let those who learn about Ge Pu's accident not be too nervous.
Qi Hongkuo said that he would first take people to Quanling County for disaster relief, and let Wan Lin return to Linyang County to continue disaster relief with Wan Zhang.
Wan Lin was also worried about Wan Zhang's body, and there was still some finishing work in Linyang County, so Wan Lin listened to Qi Hongkuo's suggestion, saying that he would come back after dealing with Linyang's affairs, and then continue to interrogate Ge Pu.
They didn't know that before Mrs. Ge came to the county office, she asked people to send a letter to King Huan.
Although she is now confined to her home, the letter to King Huan is hurrying to the capital.
After Wan Lin returned to Linyang County, he told Wan Zhang, Fu Xiaojiu and others how to catch Ge Pu.
After learning of Ge Pu's crime, everyone hated him to the extreme.
But Wan Lin didn't say anything about their suspicion that Ge Pu had something to do with Ji Ji for the time being, for fear of making everyone worry too much.
Fu Xiaojiu said that Wan Zhang's recovery is good now, and the medicinal powder she developed can play some detoxification role when applied to Wan Zhang's skin.
After Wan Chang recovers for another five days or so, he can try to try the medicinal bath.
Wan Zhang's situation made Wan Lin very pleased, and in the next few days, Wan Lin led people to dig many wells in villages and towns in Dongzhou County, which was a good relief from the drought.
Five days later, Fu Xiaojiu and Bai Yusheng were ready to give Wan Zhang's medicinal bath, but before giving Wan Zhang's medicinal bath, Bai Yusheng still made a suggestion to Fu Xiaojiu.
"Third sister-in-law, before taking a medicinal bath, let's give our family's Ganoderma lucidum to Brother Zhang, so that it can speed up the elimination of residual poison in his body."
Fu Xiaojiu still insisted: "These days, I have given Brother Zhang high-grade Ganoderma lucidum every day, and he is getting better day by day. Your Lingzhi is an extremely rare treasure, so let's keep it for people who are more difficult to treat. ”
"But......" Bai Yusheng is really willing, and wants to persuade Fu Xiaojiu again.
Fu Xiaojiu said that she had already told Wan Zhang about it, and Wan Zhang also said that the Ganoderma lucidum was a family heirloom of the Bai family and could not be used easily, as long as there was another way to save him, he would never use such a precious treasure.
After such persuasion, Bai Yusheng gave up and no longer had to take out his family's lingzhi to use it.
Because Bai Yusheng is so willing, Fu Xiaojiu has a deeper understanding of him, thinking that Bai Yusheng is indeed a rare benevolent doctor, and with people like him, even a patient who is difficult to treat will definitely have a glimmer of life.
Although it has been decided that there will be a medicated bath to help Wan Chang expel the remaining poisons, in combination with Wan Zhang's physical condition, there will be some improvements on the basis of the previous medicated bath.
Fu Xiaojiu had people weave a hollow mat out of bamboo, and under the mat was a boiling decoction.
Wan Chang was lying on the mat and was steamed by the steam of the decoction, which was a bit like "stewing through water".
In order to prevent Wan Chang from being burned by the high temperature, the distance between the mat and the decoction should be mastered, so that Wan Chang can feel the heat and sweat, and remove the residual poison through sweat.
Because Wan Zhang wanted to take away all his clothes and lie on the mat, Fu Xiaojiu was afraid that he would be embarrassed, so he asked people to surround the mat with a slightly thicker gauze curtain, which could not only see his movements, but also protect his privacy.
So that other people, young and old, can come and help.
Before Wan Zhang lay down on the bamboo mat, Fu Xiaojiu gave him a bowl of decoction made with a special grade Lingzhi.
Ever since Wan Zhang was lying on the bamboo mat like this, Nianzhen's heartstrings have been tense and not let go.
Wan Lin also changed into light clothes to help.
Take care of the firewood, control the heat of the boiling decoction, and pour warm water on Wan Zhang's body in a timely manner, so as not to damage his internal organs if the temperature of the boiling decoction is too high.
In short, this is another big project, and at least more than 20 people are busy with it.
Wan Chang felt embarrassed at first, but he also thought about it later, as long as he could recover as soon as possible, his face and whatever he didn't matter.
After about an hour, Bai Yusheng observed that Wan Zhang's sweat had changed color, from colorless and transparent to light brown.
Bai Yusheng immediately told Fu Xiaojiu about this change, and when Fu Xiaojiu heard it, he asked him to quickly check Wan Zhang's pulse.
After Bai Yusheng calmed down and carefully checked Wan Zhang's pulse, he happily said to Fu Xiaojiu: "Brother Zhang's pulse is much more stable than before, and his heart pulse is stronger than before. ”
After speaking, Bai Yusheng checked the meridians of Wan Zhang's body again, and was pleased to find that the meridians in his whole body were also smoothed a lot.
But after hearing such good news, Fu Xiaojiu was not in a hurry to be happy, but said to Bai Yusheng: "This is a symptom of the residual poison being eliminated, but we can't take it lightly, and after treating Brother Zhang today, we have to observe his follow-up situation, and we may give him such a 'steaming' a few more times to completely eliminate the residual poison." ”
After Fu Xiaojiu finished speaking, Bai Yusheng also said cautiously: "I understand the third sister-in-law, I will pay attention to the situation of Brother Zhang." ”
Wan Zhang was a little confused by the "steaming", and after hearing the conversation between Fu Xiaojiu and Wan Zhang, he tried his best to say to Bai Yusheng: "Bai Langzhong, thank you for being so dedicated to me, your kindness is unforgettable." ”
Bai Yusheng smiled warmly at him, "Brother Zhang doesn't have to see the outside like this, you are a good official who is dedicated to the people, and it is also auspicious for you to be healed." ”
After helping Wan Zhang down from the bamboo mat, Bai Yusheng checked his pulse again.
Wan Zhang's current situation is very good, but the poison of red phosphorus pills is complex and has the danger of recurrence.
Fu Xiaojiu asked Wan Zhang to rest for two days, and after the third day, he would detoxify him like this again.
Seeing that Wan Zhang had been greatly improved, Wan Lin's heart was temporarily put in his stomach.
Qi Hongkuo brought a letter to Wan Lin that day, telling him that with Gong Rui's help, several wells were also drilled in Quanling County, and the ditch was successfully dug for drinking water, which was a good relief from the drought.
It's time to take the time to interrogate Ge Pu again, Qi Hongkuo wants Wan Lin to interrogate Ge Pu with him, I don't know when he will have time to come over.
Wan Lin didn't reply to Qi Hongkuo's letter after reading it, but explained it to Fu Xiaojiu, and set off with someone that night.
Fu Xiaojiu didn't know why Wan Lin was in such a hurry to interrogate Ge Pu, and vaguely guessed whether Ge Pu had committed a more serious crime.
Qi Hongkuo didn't expect Wan Lin to come so early, and he was also very happy after learning that Wan Zhang's situation had improved greatly.
Qi Hongkuo said something in front of Wan Lin that made Wan Lin afraid.
The drought in Quanling County is not difficult to manage, but before Wan Lin said that he did not need to worry too much about what the Jiji Congress would do, there were some variables.
Not only has the drought been alleviated in Quanling County, but many taxes have been reduced, and people have all started to cultivate their land again, and some people who have left their homes have returned home after hearing the good news.
Such changes in Quanling County soon spread to the country of Jiji, but at this time, the drought in the country had not been alleviated.
So Ji Jiguo began to move, Qi Hongkuo had already found several suspicious people outside the county yamen a few days ago.
On the day he found those people, Ge Pu suddenly went on a hunger strike.
