Chapter 456: Hope
Originally, the emperor could go down with a holy decree, and no doctor could refuse to go to the border, which would be disrespectful to the decree.
The emperor didn't do this because he didn't want to mess with people's hearts, and everything was voluntary.
It's not early, everything is ready.
Over there, Lin Zifu and Ye Beichen were explaining the business matters, Qin Heng and Zhou Mingqi listened carefully, and after explaining everything that should be paid attention to, Lin Zifu said: "In the future, the business matters will be completely handed over to the two of you, I don't know when I will come back, Qin Heng, you remember to help me take care of Aunt Ying's side, there should be no problem here in the capital." ”
The only thing she didn't worry about was Aunt Ying, and she didn't want Aunt Ying to know about going to the border gate, so she hurriedly advised: "And don't let Aunt Ying know about my going to the border gate." ”
Qin Heng agreed: "Aunt Ying, you can rest assured, I will help take care of it, I will also take care of the business of the village, you and Beichen just go to the border with peace of mind, you must pay attention to safety, we are waiting for you to return safely." ”
The convoy had been assembled, and the wagons were neatly parked in the middle of the street, and the people on both sides of the street were standing with each other.
"I must come back safely."
The crowd didn't know who shouted, followed by one blessing after another.
Ye Beichen let everyone get into the carriage, and the German father-in-law sent him to the city gate.
Outside the city gate, hundreds of civil and military officials are waiting, they will definitely come today, and it is the heroes who leave today, but also the family.
The carriage stopped, all the doctors got out of the carriage, and said their final goodbyes to their families, and Lin Zifu and Ye Beichen came to the night imperial doctor.
Mrs. Night said with tears in her eyes: "I don't want to come, but I can't help it, Zifu hug the child again, I don't know how long it will take to come back, rest assured that we will take care of ourselves and take care of the child." As he spoke, tears had fallen.
The night imperial doctor's eyes were full of worry: "Pay attention to safety." ”
Sun Ce was hugged by his mother, and he was very reluctant.
"Mother, don't hold me, I'm so old, you see everyone is watching."
Mrs. Sun was reluctant to let go: "My mother knows that she can't beat you, you must return safely." ”
A safe return is everyone's expectation.
The Thirteen Princes seemed a little lonely, everyone else had families, and he ......
Gonggong De stepped forward and took out a letter from his cuff, handed it to the thirteenth prince and said, "This is given to you by the emperor." ”
The thirteenth prince took the letter and looked at Gonggong De a little blankly, he didn't know what the emperor was doing with him, he didn't open it after taking the letter, he nodded slightly and wanted to get into the carriage.
"Brother Huang." Princess Tranquility's voice came from the back of the crowd.
"Brother Huang." It was the voice of the Seven Princes.
Then several princes and princesses squeezed into the crowd.
"Brother Huang, you must come back safely, I'm still waiting for you to drink." Princess Jingxin held back her tears and raised her head and said.
The Thirteenth Prince stretched out his hand and touched Princess Jingxin's head and said, "Okay! Brother Huang has come back and invited you to drink. His heart was warm at this moment, he thought that the emperor's family was ruthless, and his brothers and sisters in Beijing came to see him off, so he was the only one.
The Seventh Prince looked ashamed: "It's useless Brother Seven, I can't follow you to the border, thirteen, you must return safely, last time you said to take me to Lishan Waterfall to roast sheep, when you come back, we won't roast sheep, let's get a wild deer to roast." ”
"Good! Just listen to the Seven Emperor Brothers. The Thirteen Princes got into the carriage.
The final farewell made many people feel heavy, and people gathered at the city gate to see them off.
Lin Zifu and Ye Beichen sat in the carriage at the front, and both of them were not in a very good mood in the carriage.
Ye Beichen took Lin Zifu's shoulders, hugged Lin Zifu in his arms and said, "We will return safely, I have seen the accompanying Jinyi Guard, they are all extremely good at kung fu." ”
There are more than a dozen guards in the group, and it is no problem to protect more than 20 of them.
"Father-in-law De said that the post stations along the way have been arranged, and I just hope that this time it will be safe."
In the past two days, the word "peace" has been mentioned the most, which is everyone's expectation.
On a carriage behind, Sun Ce, the Thirteen Princes and Meng Haoran sat together, Sun Ce said with a happy face: "Now I finally understand Mr. Lin's good intentions, let us exercise on weekdays, if it is changed to before, I will have to lose half my life." ”
At the beginning, Lin Zifu asked Gao Hu and them to train Sun Ce and them, and except for Li Tongfu and the three people in the academy, the other ten people complained.
I didn't feel the benefits of good health until today, and they are no longer weak teenagers.
The Thirteenth Prince was also very grateful in his heart: "Mr. Lin is a very powerful person, I didn't expect that the ten of us who were disliked would actually have a day when we were respected, even if the Eighth Emperor Brother went on the expedition, there would not be so many people to send him off." ”
This is glory, saying this on the lips, but in my heart I admire the eighth prince.
In the past, he was arrogant and looked down on anyone, and it was ridiculous to think about him before.
Escorted by Jinyi guards, it was safe along the way, Lin Zifu and Ye Beichen didn't sleep well in the past two days, and when they woke up, it was already noon, and the carriage stopped in a small town not far from the capital, and after a simple lunch, they didn't rest, and continued to move forward.
Border.
The Eighth Prince looked tiredly at the letter sent by the capital.
Xijing and Da Zhou were pressing forward step by step, and after the military doctor was killed, he asked more than a dozen doctors who knew how to heal in the vicinity, which reduced the casualties, but the situation was still a little unoptimistic.
The situation was originally very stable, but because the two countries joined forces, there were too many variables.
The previous two battles suffered numerous casualties.
"I hope it's good news this time." With this thought in his heart, he opened the letter.
After reading the letter, the eighth prince finally smiled, and finally had good news.
General Lai, who was beside him, was curious: "Is it good news?" ”
The successive defeats have made this iron-clad man desperate.
There was a shortage of medicinal herbs, and the wounded could not be saved at all, looking at the dead and injured brothers, I felt guilty and desperate.
The eighth prince said with a smile on his face: "Hold on, they will arrive in half a month at most, fifteen people from Tongren Academy, and ten other doctors who volunteered to come to the border are already on the way, they set off ten days ago, and they are hurrying up, and the injured soldiers don't have to die anymore." ”
With Lin Zifu and Ye Beichen coming, he was at ease.
The medical skills of the dozen or so doctors who were temporarily arrested are not very good, many of them are barefoot doctors in the countryside, or people who know a little medical skills, and they are not very skilled in dealing with wounds, but he can trust Lin Zifu and Ye Beichen's medical skills.
The last time I went back and saw the students of Tongren Academy, they were all studying seriously, and they had been studying for more than a year, so there should be no problem in dealing with wounds, and the most important thing was to bring medicinal herbs.
Seeing that General Lai also had a smile on his face, he continued: "The most important thing is that they brought medicinal herbs, there are two large carriages of Golden Sore Medicine and Hemostatic Powder, and there are several carts of urgently needed medicinal herbs, General Lai, you pass on the news." ”
General Lai was happy in his heart, the atmosphere in the entire barracks was very low, and what was needed at this time was exciting news, and the morale of the army was very important.
The news was quickly passed on, and the soldiers in the barracks became excited.
After the eighth prince waited for General Lai to go out, he put away the letter with a stern gaze and let his henchmen in.
"How's Leng Qi's investigation?"
After the matter of the military doctor, he took precautions and asked his henchmen to investigate the details of the military camp, and he didn't want the same thing to happen again.
Leng Qi's voice was very cold and said: "The Eighth Prince has already investigated clearly, and a total of one hundred and thirty-eight people have been found in the barracks, and these one hundred and thirty-eight people are all the meticulous work of the enemy army. ”
The eighth prince was shocked, he didn't expect so many people to be mixed in: "Xijing Kingdom and Great Zhou Kingdom are good means, they actually mixed in so many fine works, since they have bad rules, then we don't have to shy away from it, it is my favorite thing to do to return a tooth for a tooth." A touch of coldness flashed in his eyes, he had been talking about the rules before, but after the military doctor was killed by the meticulous work, he realized that sometimes he couldn't talk about the rules, especially on the battlefield, the rules didn't exist.
Leng Qi's voice was still cold, and the expression on his face did not change in the slightest: "Don't worry, the eighth prince is lurking in the enemy camp is Leng Wu and Leng Yi, they are waiting for the prince's order, what is the prince going to do with this one hundred and thirty-eight people?" ”
The Eighth Prince said in a sullen voice: "Kill." ”
Now that they have found out, they will definitely be killed, these people can't stay, and Lin Zifu and they will arrive in half a month, and they must be clear about these eye-catching obstacles to ensure the safety of this group of military doctors.
Leng Qi left, and Leng Jiu entered the tent.
Compared with Leng 70,000 years of unchanging glacier face, Leng Jiu's personality is much more cheerful, it seems that there is nothing in the world that makes him unhappy, as soon as he enters the tent, he smiled and said: "Eighth Prince, I saw Leng Qi come in, is there something to do again?" ”
The Eighth Prince was obviously accustomed to Leng Jiu's temperament, and ordered: "Arrange an important matter for you, a team of military doctors has come to the capital, a total of twenty-five people, and there are also medicinal herbs, you immediately go to protect it secretly, bring Leng Eleven together, Xijing Kingdom and Great Zhou Kingdom will soon learn the news, I am afraid that they will repeat the old tricks, I don't want to see them miss a little." ”
Leng Jiu was surprised: "It's from the capital?" How could the group of delicate doctors in the capital be willing to come to the border? ”
The eighth prince said: "You have a respectful attitude, this group of people who came is not ordinary, the emperor posted a notice to summon the doctors who are willing to come to the border pass, these people are all voluntary, and the identity of the students of Tongren Academy is not simple, the thirteen princes are also among them, and the grandson of Prime Minister Sun Cheng, and the other eight are also the sons of the official eunuchs in the capital, we must protect the safety of these twenty-five people, you can die, they can't have an accident." ”
He would not allow them to slip up the slightest.
Leng Jiu smiled: "I know, look at your serious appearance, there is no problem with these people handing over to me and Leng Shi." ”
When Leng Jiuyi left, the Eighth Prince relaxed and sat down.
Just as the Eighth Prince thought, the news that the capital had sent a doctor spread in the military camps of the Xijing Kingdom and the Great Zhou Kingdom.
