As soon as the sky was bright, Xiao Jian waited at the door of the Yuelai Inn as promised.

Half a cup of tea was not enough, but Xia Yinhuan was carrying a medicine basket, holding a scimitar, carrying a mountaineering rope on his shoulder, and appeared in front of Xiao Jian in a clean and neat short dress.

Xiao Jian looked straight at it, he didn't expect the queen to dress up like this, she was actually heroic and handsome, it was really a special taste in her heart, but in view of his identity, he would never be allowed to think crankily.

He was very puzzled and asked, "Yin Huan, aren't we going to find the source of the plague, why do we need to be so equipped?" ”

"Yesterday, I have consulted the old man who collects medicine all year round, this stone grows on the cliff of Hutou Mountain opposite, and the blood calamus has been found in the Broken Intestine Valley under the eagle's beak cliff, let's try our luck!"

Xia Yin said happily that since the source of this plague has not been found for a long time, it is worth the trip to get these two special medicines for treating the plague by chance.

"That's great! The five dissipations prescribed by Yin Huan, if you can add the two miraculous medicines of stone exhaustion and blood calamus, it can really be said to be like a tiger with wings and icing on the cake! The half-moon period that was originally predicted can be greatly shortened! ”

Xiao Jian took another set of equipment, quickly packed up, and said with great joy.

This is really the emperor's heart, and the queen's efforts during this time are finally worth it.

After trekking and climbing all the way, the two finally came to the bottom of the cliff on Hutou Mountain.

Wiping away the sweat on his face, Xiao Jian looked up and couldn't help but gasp!

Although the altitude of this Hutou Mountain is not too high, there are three words enough to describe it, that is, strange! Narrow pass! Blame! Just like the magic of nature, the strange stones and strange peaks are intertwined, from the bottom to the top make people look timid, look at it frighteningly, and the stone exhaustion grows on the cliff, between the crevices of this vulture!

And these are still not to be feared, but the sight of the birds perched above, circling and playing, and sometimes hungry goshawks hovering low in the sky, the desolate and fierce chirping is terrifying.

In other words, when climbing on the cliff, you have to always defend against these goshawks and flocks of birds, and if you are attacked in the air, you will definitely die!

No wonder there is a shortage of medicinal materials such as stone exhaustion! It seems that you really have to fight for your life to get it, it is really rare to meet but not to seek, a rare life-saving fairy grass!

Xia Yinhuan commanded categorically: "Don't take care of too much, Xiao Jian, I'll go up and pick stones, and you will drive away the goshawks and birds for me!" ”

When Xiao Jian heard this, he was horrified in his heart, knelt on the spot with a "plop", and said undoubtedly: "Queen Mother, by all means, you wait below, and your subordinate Xiao Jian will go back when he goes, even if he is broken, he will definitely live up to his mission!" ”

Xia Yinhuan understood the meaning of his words, even if he died in his post, he would have to protect the queen's thoughtfulness, which was what the emperor's dictation meant.

When she was a soldier before, she thought that she had cultivated the ability not to be emotional, but now she still can't help but sour her nose, Xiao Jian really thinks that she is a mother who has lived in the palace for a long time! But I didn't know that she had climbed the rock and kicked the wall like walking on the ground, and in the military exercise of this project, she also won the first place in the army.

"Don't talk nonsense, you just do it! Delay the treatment of the plague, do you bear this charge? Xia Yinhuan's face was full of frost, urging him, and then without saying a word, he threw one end of the climbing rope upwards and firmly grasped the top of the mountain.

Xiao Jian didn't dare to insist any longer, tightened the clothes on his body again, checked the hidden weapon he had prepared, and then grabbed in front of Xia Yinhuan and struggled to climb up.

It is easier said than done, the cliffs on Hutou Mountain are more difficult to climb, and there is not even a nest to put your feet on the cliffs, and you must be careful not to step on the slippery moss.

Within a moment's effort, the two of them were sweating through their clothes.

Between a crack in the stone, a fat stone was growing tenaciously, Xia Yinhuan grasped it in his hand, and said happily: "I finally found you!" ”

"Be careful! Poisonous snakes! Xiao Jian, who was advancing hand in hand with Xia Yinhuan, was carefully in charge of guarding, but when he saw a brightly colored poisonous snake spitting at Xia Yinhuan, he immediately reminded him.

Xia Yinhuan gave up the stone exhaustion in his hand, grabbed the seven inches of the poisonous snake with a bang, and then shook it with his hand, and the five-flowered snake with the thickness of the bowl fell into the bottom of the cliff!

Xiao Jian here was already in a cold sweat, and finally escaped without danger, so he was a little relieved.

Everywhere they went, the birds were startled, chirping and chirping and flying into the middle of nowhere.

When the two of them were approaching the top of the mountain, Xia Yinhuan and Xiao Jian's back baskets had already harvested a lot of stones, but the two of them were already exhausted, as if they had collapsed.

Xiao Jian glanced back at the queen worriedly, and saw that she was also looking at him with concern, and the two couldn't help but smile heartily.

Unexpectedly, at this very moment, an even greater crisis awaits them.

A big eagle hovered in the air for a moment, suddenly screamed strangely, and a dive, and came down at Xia Yinhuan's head, the speed was as fast as the wind and thunder, and it was about to attack the queen!

Xiao Jian shouted hoarsely: "Yin Huan, be careful!" ”

He threw a dart in his hand, saying that it was too late and that it was too fast, and he hit the eagle eagle in the head impartially, and only heard a miserable cry in his ears, and the body of the great ferocious bird fell straight down, and finally fell into the mountain stream and was never to be seen again.

Xia Yinhuan let out a long breath, and this time she escaped again.

A veiled man at the top of the cliff took in all this, snorted softly, and then disappeared into the greenery.

Under the tower of the southern city, inside the temporary marching tent.

Cang Linchen, who had not slept all night, was still full of ambition and full of energy, and was correcting and correcting the twists and turns without tireness.

Last night, he came to the city of Nancheng in person, and issued a decree with thunder, and now it seems that it has not been half a day, and it has already achieved immediate results and initial results.

King Jing Cang Jingcheng is a person who can be of great use, and he can be described as dedicated and meritorious.

He successively killed three ministers with the sword of Shang Fang given by the emperor, two of them were mediocre people who did nothing and neglected their duties in the face of the epidemic, and one was an official who saw wealth and withheld disaster relief funds without permission, and bent the law for bribes.

Since then, the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty have all been diligent in politics and dedicated to the people, and those affected by the plague have all been isolated at dawn.

At this time, the reign of the Emperor of the Kingdom of Respect asked to see him outside the tent and brought the bad news that broke the earth.

At present, there is a big problem in the five dissipations of the treatment and prevention of the plague, that is, among the five herbs, there are actually two ordinary leaves and grass roots.

"Your Majesty, please see, these are ordinary leaves and grass roots, no wonder the victims infected with the plague have not completely improved! It turned out that there was something wrong with this prescription! ”

This Lianhu learned from his daughter Concubine Lian that the prescription for the five dissipations was prescribed by the queen Xia Yinhuan, so he asked Lang Zhong to bring to thoroughly investigate the medicine residue, and really found clues from it, and these were enough to put her Xia Yinhuan to death!

The emperor "snapped" and slapped the dragon case, and on the face of the demon, he was immediately angry, and shouted loudly: "Bold Imperial Doctor, can't you eat the heart of a bear and a leopard?" How dare you deceive the court and fool the people, where will I be placed? And where are the laws of my great power?! Come on, tie up all the doctors involved in the treatment of the plague! No forgiveness! ”

Under the thunder, someone dared to commit a crime against the wind, how could he not let Cang Linchen be angry!

Lianhu hurriedly knelt on the ground, shouted long live, and said loudly: "The emperor is angry!" Now is the time to employ people, how can all the imperial doctors be killed? The minister knows that this matter is very important, and the slightest carelessness will shake the country's foundation, so I brought you the culprit! ”

"Bring it in! I'm going to interrogate it myself! Cang Rinchen had already been angry by this earth-shattering news, and when he heard that Jing Guozhang had taken the culprit, he naturally wanted to ask clearly.

A man who looked like a doctor was brought in, and he knelt on the ground tremblingly, and before he could be tortured by Cang Rinchen, he was frightened and urinated.

It turned out that he was a spy sent by the winning country, the purpose of which was to take advantage of the plague on the southern border to weaken the national capital of the country, and then let him seize every opportunity to complete the plan of recovering the country! and confessed that the prescription called Five Dissipation was exactly what Xia Yinhuan, the third princess of the winning country, did, and when the time came, he could cooperate with the winning country and win the country in one fell swoop.

In a fit of anger, Cang Linchen was simply furious, especially when he heard that the queen would actually calculate herself behind her back!

"Kill! Kill! Kill them all! ”

Jingguo Zhangzhang Lianhu hurriedly agreed and said, "The minister obeys the order!" He drew the sword from the side of the guard and stabbed the spy in the belly with all his might.

The "Imperial Doctor" grabbed the hilt of the sword with one hand, pointed at Jingguo Zhanglian Hu with the other, and slowly fell into a pool of blood, and said intermittently: "You...... I'm not ......", and then fell to the ground with a pair of big eyes, never moving again.

Cang Rinchen just said an angry word just now, but he didn't expect that Lianhu was really the "spy" who stabbed to death "according to the order"! But as the emperor, how can he regret it? Reluctantly, he turned around and sat down on the dragon chair.

When the remaining anger was still gone, Cang Rinchen gritted his teeth and asked, "Is there any news from Xia Yinhuan?!" ”

Gonggong Liu, who was next to him, replied truthfully in a low voice: "If the slave returns to the emperor, the queen has no news yet!" ”

"Spread my word and go all out to arrest Xia Yinhuan! I'm going to tear her to pieces with my own hands! ”

After venting, Cang Linchen calmed down, even if Xia Yinhuan wanted to help Win the country achieve the plan of recovering the country, but was she so ruthless? And ignore these dawn people? The pretty figure that appeared in my mind again, the figure taking care of the sick despite being seriously injured.
