Chapter One Hundred and Nine
In the early morning of the next day, An Ruiqi ordered the leader of the Shadow Guard to personally lead his elite to escort Ning Yue and Xiaoyan to a neighboring town for temporary refuge. The leader naturally refused, and said: "Since the master knows that there are 300,000 troops pressing the border in front of him, and there is a rebellion in Qingfeng Cottage in the back, and the vanguard camp will not escape the doom, why don't you flee here with Miss Ning and them?" ”
An Ruiqi sneered after hearing this, and replied: "It turns out that in your eyes, I am actually greedy for life and afraid of death? ”
"The subordinates don't dare!" The leader was terrified.
"As the supervisor of the vanguard battalion, I should live and die with the whole army, although the military situation is urgent, but I am sure that there is no endless way, but Miss Ning will remain in the army for a day, and I will inevitably have scruples in my heart, and I dare not let go. If you are truly faithful to me, will you help me to cut off this worries and send her safely to her hiding place? ”
Seeing An Ruiqi's sincere words, the leader had no choice but to agree to send his right-hand men to complete the task, while he continued to stay by An Ruiqi's side to protect him.
Ning Yue, who hadn't slept all night, also got up early to prepare, first woke up the smile, and then invited the divine doctor to his tent to discuss his plan with the two.
"Divine doctor, sister Xiaoyan, my eldest brother told me last night that General An was blocked on the way to the army, so he couldn't come to the rescue in time......"
Before Ning Yue finished speaking, the two asked anxiously, "What?" Ning Gongzi in the barracks? "What? Shouldn't the old man leave quickly? ”
Ning Yue nodded with a wry smile and replied, "The news that the eldest brother came back overnight yesterday to bring to the eldest young master should be conclusive. Brother Qi...... General An is deliberately asking us to leave this place this morning......"
"Very good, very good, the old man is going to clean up!" "Ning Gongzi, will he also go with us? If he doesn't go, then I won't go either! The two interrupted Ning Yue's words again.
"Sister Xiaoyan, I think the eldest brother definitely doesn't want to see you involved in the war, so you might as well go and hide with the divine doctor......" Ning Yue stroked Xiaoyan's head and said softly.
"What about you?" Xiaoyan heard the meaning of Ning Yue's words, and asked with a pout.
Ning Yue smiled slightly after hearing this, took out the medicine bottle given by An Ruiqi from his arms, and asked, "Divine doctor, how is this medicine?" ”
When the divine doctor saw the medicine bottle, his face immediately radiated, and he replied triumphantly: "This medicine is made by the old man who traveled around the world to collect superb medicinal materials, and spent ten years refining it. A few days ago, in order to save one of them, the leader let the old man travel day and night, and did not hesitate to waste ten thousands of horses for this purpose, which is precious. ”
"Sister Xiaoyan, what about your red Lingzhi?"
"Of course it's the best, even the divine doctor is full of praise when he sees it!" He replied with a smile on his face, and the divine doctor nodded again and again.
"If I use these two rare treasures to induce the Chu army, which is in urgent need of medicine to treat the dying prince, to retreat, I wonder if you two think it will be possible?" Ning Yue asked leisurely.
"I can't help it!" The two replied in unison. "Sister Yue'er, this is too dangerous!" "Miss Ning, you can't waste the old man's hard work like this!"
"Divine doctor, your painstaking refining of medicine is nothing more than to cure diseases and save people, now that the pioneer battalion is limited to water and fire, if you can persuade the Chu army to retreat, or you can turn things around and avoid annihilation, although the medicine is valuable, but if the 50,000 soldiers of the pioneer battalion can be saved because of this, isn't it a good use?" After speaking, Ning Yue bowed to the divine doctor.
"Miss Ning...... The ...... said it was a great thing," the divine doctor reached out and touched the medicine bottle, and finally made up his mind to endure the pain and cut his love.
"Thank you, Divine Doctor!" Ning Yue kowtowed to him again, got up and took Xiaoyan's hand and said, "Sister Xiaoyan, don't worry, I have my own way to get out, but, can you give up your red Lingzhi?" ”
A smile glanced at the cold appearance of the eye doctor, and replied freely: "Sister Yue'er, you can take whatever you want, anyway, there are more on Qingfeng Mountain!" ”
Hearing the three words Qingfeng Mountain, the smile on Ning Yue's face froze for a moment, and her heart was very uncomfortable, but because both of them were taking care of themselves and saying goodbye to their precious medicines, they didn't notice it. After the three of them discussed, Xiaoyan decided to pretend to be sick and leave together after Ning Yue's affair was completed, and the divine doctor also promised to help cover it up. Soon after, An Ruiqi came with the leader as promised, but saw Smiling on the couch and frowned, Ning Yue, who was sitting next to the couch, hung her head and asked the doctor to know that she had a sudden illness and was not suitable for traveling, so the matter of leaving could only be put on hold for the time being.
That night, Ning Yue changed into dark clothes and walked straight to the tent where the prisoners of the Chu army were held with the divine doctor. The guards recognized Ning Yue and the Divine Doctor as the guests of General An, and did not dare to stop them. After the two entered, they beckoned the highest-ranking Chu soldier to the side and persuaded him to lead the way. The soldier saw that Ning Yue was just a weak woman who was powerless, and thought that he could take the opportunity to escape back to the barracks, so he readily agreed. So the doctor took the man back to his tent under the pretext that he was infected with the epidemic and needed to be treated urgently. After the man changed into a cloth robe, Ning Yue bid farewell to the divine doctor, and followed him to the Chu army camp. The two chose the fork in the road guarded by Qingfeng Cottage, Shen Yidao and the others saw that it was Ning Yue, so they did not open the trap, and the road was unimpeded, and at noon the next day, the two had arrived at the Chu army camp.
After being introduced by that person, Ning Yue successfully met the general of Chu State, and after explaining his intentions, the general laughed and mocked: "Little girl, no matter whether your words are true or false, seeing that you look weak, it is not difficult to take the medicine from you, in this case, why should this general withdraw from the army in exchange?" ”
"It is not the husband's work to forcibly seize and rob, and if the general does this, is he not afraid of losing his reputation for the rest of his life?" Ning Yue asked awe-inspiringly.
"In order to save the prince, General Ben is willing to bear this notoriety, haha!"
Ning Yue looked at the sinister face of the general of the Chu State, showed a shallow smile, and said indifferently: "Although the little girl has no peerless martial arts ability to compete with the general, it is not easy to burn the life-sustaining medicine and jade. ”
Hearing this, the general of the Chu State looked at her suspiciously, and after a moment of silence, he asked, "What is the girl's plan?" ”
"Just swallow it in your mouth and the medicine will be gone." Ning Yue replied calmly.
The general of Chu was stunned when he heard this, and he didn't want this little woman to do this, so he couldn't help but shout angrily: "You...... You're not afraid that I'll break you into pieces! ”
"The little girl is willing to even give up those two magic pills, not to mention this life, the poison has been prepared, if the general doesn't believe it, he can give it a try." Ning Yue did not flinch and replied resolutely to the fierce eyes of the general of the Chu State.
Chu Guoda was shocked by Ning Yue's unyielding momentum, for fear that she would do what she said, so he hurriedly persuaded him: "Girl, don't worry, the matter is very important, you should think about it in the long run, please take a seat!" ”
Ning Yue retracted her fierce gaze, bowed to the general and sat down, then took out a red lingzhi from her baggage and handed it over. The general took the Ganoderma lucidum, looked at it carefully under the candlelight, and secretly admired that he had been in a high position for many years and had received gifts for many years, so he was naturally well-informed, but even so, he had never seen such a valuable medicinal material.
"This red lingzhi is good, but it is not as good as one ten-thousandth of the life-sustaining elixir, the little girl happens to have two in her hand, if she can get the general's approval, I am willing to give one of them, talk about thanks!"
After hearing this, the general immediately smiled, but suddenly remembered the purpose of this trip, and said with an embarrassed face: "But the prince ......"
"Please ask the general to write down the prince's illness in detail on a piece of paper, and the little girl is willing to ask the divine doctor for a prescription for the prince. On the other day, the general dedicated all the medicinal materials and prescriptions to the prince, and if he took the medicine according to the prescription, his illness should be improved, and the life-sustaining elixir was just the icing on the cake. Ning Yue replied softly.
When the general heard this, he got up and echoed loudly: "The girl is right! With his appreciation for this little girl, the general summoned all the accompanying doctors in the army without saying a word, and everyone poured all their knowledge into writing a medical case about the prince's illness, and in the evening, the general personally sorted out dozens of medical cases, handed them over to Ning Yue, and then ordered his entourage to escort her away. Before leaving, Ning Yue presented the medicine bottle containing the two life-sustaining pills and the red lingzhi with both hands, and the general took it, nodded understandingly, and stood in place to watch her go away.
