In the cold winter wax moon, the night of heavy snowfall.

The young man Ma Mingze heard the movement in front of him, did not dare to delay, got off the horse in a panic, crawled into the field next to him, put his body tightly on the ground, covered his body with the night and grass, raised his head a little bit, tried to open his eyes wide to check the situation, covered his mouth with both hands, did not dare to make a little movement, the soil under his body was frozen as stiff as ice, and a chill came in along the fitting place, so that the teenager who was not wearing much trembled uncontrollably, but at the moment of his life, he could only grit his teeth and insist。

After a few breaths, the sound of horses' hooves came from far and near, and a group of thirty cavalry finally came closer, and naturally saw the horse standing restlessly in the middle of the avenue with its feet stamped.

"Stop!"

The middle-aged general, who was covered in standard armor, wearing a heavy helmet and a yellow mink fur, suddenly raised the horsewhip in his hand, and all the people behind him stopped in an instant, and the coordination of the entire team can be seen.

The middle-aged general took the torch from the hands of the subordinates next to him, stepped forward and carefully checked it, such a person in the army naturally noticed the undisguised traces on the ground in an instant, in the heavy snow, the traces of this section of crawling have not been buried, it can only be regarded as Ma Mingze's bad luck, the other party came too quickly and too quickly, otherwise the heavy snow in the sky at night would help him cover the traces.

Seeing that the other party had looked over, Ma Mingze, who was hiding in the field, knew that it had been exposed, and his heart sank, and then the other party's firelight, carefully identified it and found that it was the garrison of Liangguo, and he was overjoyed at the moment, and quickly ran out of the field.

The team here heard movement in the field next to them, and in an instant, more than 20 bows and arrows were set up, and they all pointed at Ma Mingze, and some people pulled out their swords and waited for them.

"Don't shoot arrows! I'm from Majia Village, don't shoot arrows!"

The middle-aged general put his hand on the saber at his waist, looked at this thin young man who ran all the way and knelt in front of his horse, observed it carefully, and then let go of the hand holding the hilt of the sword, turned his head and made a few gestures, and the others instantly pointed the bow around to prevent a potential sneak attack.

"Are you from Majia Village?" The middle-aged general on the horse frowned and asked: "We just received news from one person, saying that there was a fire in Majia Village, and there was a sound of fighting, so we came in a hurry, since you are from Majia Village, why don't you tell us what happened in Majia Village." ”

Someone reported it?

It is estimated that it is someone from other villages passing by, Ma Mingze suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, and the identity of the garrison in front of him did not allow him to doubt, he was a fourteen-year-old child, facing thirty well-equipped cavalry, even if the other party was fake, he couldn't help others, not to mention that at this time, saving his life was important, he couldn't hide it, and quickly told him the ins and outs of the matter, and then handed over a document he got from Jinglong.

At that moment, a soldier stepped forward from his horse, carefully took the paperwork, and handed it to the middle-aged general on the horse.

The middle-aged general lowered his body, took the document in disbelief, and cursed on his lips: "I can't afford to pay the responsibility for the delay。。。。。。?" ”

Before the last word 'west' could be spoken, the middle-aged general 'snapped' and closed the document in his hand with a heavy bang, turned his head to the deputy general next to him, cried with a sad face, and stammered and whispered: "Damn, out, there's a fucking big thing, it's a fucking king, prince!"

After learning that the injured person was actually on his way to take office, the newly canonized king of Hedong County in the imperial court, the middle-aged general was suddenly shocked.

Whether it is succumbing to the powerful is another matter, but the dignified prince was attacked by horse bandits on the way to take office and was seriously injured, and this is the dereliction of duty of these garrisons and even the entire border guards, even if it is handled better, it is inevitable that a capital crime will be avoided, and someone must be found to be responsible for fighting the crime when something happens, right? I don't know how many people's heads will be cut off when this is involved, and it is no wonder that his whole person is so frightened that he almost fell off his horse.

After the deputy general heard the news, no matter how stupid he was, he instantly thought of the seriousness of the problem, the deputy general's face changed, and he quickly dismounted, helped the young man from Majia Village, who already knew how to turn his lips white, up, and then said to the middle-aged general: "General, don't think about anything else yet, let's go to the military doctor first!"

The middle-aged general came back to his senses and nodded hurriedly: "Ah, yes, yes, hurry up, all of them are there, retreat!"

It's useless to say anything now, and they can't think of any other way, so in order to cover up this matter, they will secretly kill this prince? That's even more impossible, to put it bluntly, people are passing by the prince here, the status is there, something happened, the three divisions will interrogate and find out what happened, the deputy general is not without thinking of a vicious way, just say that the people of Majia Village are interested in seeing money, killing people and goods, and then going to kill the rest of the people in Majia Village, they will naturally be able to shirk the responsibility cleanly, but this is just thinking about it, if you really want to do this, once the East Window incident happens, it is not enough to give him a hundred heads.

Gu Xuan of Majia Village, Jinglong held the sword, and also walked outside the house, supervising the villagers who went to guard according to his orders, he couldn't let go of his mind to hand over such an important task to these ungrateful villagers, Gongzi was seriously injured now, and he couldn't take this risk, so he asked a peasant woman to stay in the house to report the situation to himself at any time, and then personally guarded outside to supervise the other villagers, forgive the peasant woman and didn't dare to do anything.

Gu Xuan listened to the sound of Jinglong dragging his sword back and forth outside the door, and knew that the other party was anxious and worried about his injury, so naturally he couldn't criticize him for being so rude to the villagers before.

Gu Xuan's shoulders and back were injured, and he hadn't even pulled out the arrows, but he simply dealt with it, so naturally he couldn't lie down, he could only lie on his stomach reluctantly, his posture was inevitably a little indecent, and the ancestral hall was already a little cold, the peasant woman lit a fire, lowered her head and stayed on the other side, silent.

Suddenly, a flying disaster took everything away at once, who could be indifferent in this situation, let alone these ordinary people who have been living and working in peace and contentment, this is also the main reason why Gu Xuan has never been angry at these people's ungrateful behavior.

It was the fault of taking the initiative to come to fight the horse bandits head-on, if there was a gap before on the grounds that the nearby garrison had been notified, and then there was a previous example of killing chickens and monkeys, the horse bandits would inevitably be frightened and fled in a hurry, and then they would pursue again, it would definitely be better, or relying on the complex terrain of the village, it would be a good way to slowly attack and kill these horse bandits, and it was a real strategy to go to the front and fight them.

But he just felt from the bottom of his heart that the horse bandits that appeared on the land of Liangguo, he, the prince of Liangguo, was obliged to solve them, not to mention that the other party even did the evil thing of slaughtering the village in front of him, which he couldn't bear no matter what.

It's just the first time to fight directly head-on with these brave and bloodthirsty, murderous bandits, or inexperienced, and greedy for merit, so he suffered a big loss, and later after being deceived by the pockmarked face and escaping, he didn't expect that the other party would sneak attack him again, if it weren't for his ability to hide quickly through his perennial martial arts practice, I'm afraid that he would be a dead corpse now, that pockmarked face's archery skills are really not weak, and he can accurately shoot himself with an arrow in the dark, Gu Xuan doesn't believe that it is luck at all.

Just when Gu Xuan was lying on the makeshift bed in the ancestral hall and silently thinking about himself, there was a sudden sound of horses' hooves outside the door, Gu Xuan's five senses were very keen, and he still heard very clearly through a door, and he didn't hear Jinglong's loud reminder, and then calculated the time, guessed that it should be the garrison, so he didn't get up.

Outside the door, the garrison rushed over with the best military doctor nearby, and before he could stop, the middle-aged man quickly turned over and dismounted, and then crawled to the ground in front of Jinglong with a bitter face.

"Great, my lord, the lower official is here with a doctor, please forgive the late arrival!"

Wen Mo can't fake this thing at all, he naturally completely believes in the identities of the other party, and he is not worried that someone dares to impersonate, this kind of thing is very easy to verify, and it is a felony that will be beheaded once the incident occurs, who will have nothing to take this risk, and the general who knew that he was at a loss hurriedly stepped forward and clenched his fists to ask for guilt.

Jinglong looked at the middle-aged general kneeling in front of him with a calm face, and he didn't have time to get angry, he just raised his eyelids slightly and looked at it a few times, making sure that it was the garrison of Liangguo, and he didn't follow the middle-aged general to say hello, so he hurriedly stepped forward and helped the doctor who looked quite old to get off the horse.

The old doctor took the pouch from the bag on the horse's back and carried it on his body, and said with a smile: "The old man has been a military doctor for thirty years, and when he was young, he often followed the team everywhere, and it is still okay to ride for so many miles." ”

Jinglong didn't waste time explaining, but just said in a muffled voice: "The situation is urgent, I'll take you in." ”

After speaking, he didn't care about what the others were doing, and directly dragged the old military doctor to open the door and go inside.

The middle-aged general who was hanging out did not dare to stand up, and without receiving an order, he could only continue to kneel on the cold ground aggrievedly, anxiously waiting for the result, this time it was really a flying disaster, he was neither ignorant nor clear, maybe he would be punished and guillotined later, and he was a little disheartened at the moment, a man who was dozens of years old, Rong Ma was half a life, and he secretly wiped his tears outside the door, and secretly cried in his heart.

I'm unlucky, what the is this!

And the young man from Namajia Village followed this gang to stay on the other side, and he was also a little frightened, these are all serious Youzhou Army, on weekdays in Hedong County, they are really real snakes, very arrogant, even the civil officials in the county never give a good face when they come, and now they are scared like this, that is, he is a little sad when he sees it, what kind of identity are the two people inside, he didn't dare to peek at Wen Mu on the road, so he is very curious now.

In the house, seeing Jinglong walking in with an old man dressed as a doctor, Gu Xuan also climbed up slightly.

The old military doctor found a clean place, carefully put down the instruments and medicines he was carrying, sat on the chair in front of the bed, and began to carefully check the injuries on Gu Xuan's body, his shirt had already been completely stripped off by Jinglong, and the wounds had been simply treated and cleaned according to experience.

Jinglong stood beside him with his sword, very anxious, Gu Xuan was not only a junior who had grown up since he was a child, an apprentice, a good friend who could listen to him talk about his heart, but also the only hope for him to return to the border and realize what he had been thinking about for twenty years, how could he not care, how could he not be in a hurry, but he also knew that the doctor was most annoying that someone was noisy next to him, so he could only hold his mind and forcibly suppress his anxious emotions, hold his breath and dare not disturb.

After a while, the old military doctor withdrew his hand, raised his head and looked at Gu Xuan on the bed and explained: "The two injuries in other places are not serious, they have not hurt the muscles and bones, and the treatment after that is also very good, I smelled those medicines, they are all the top gold sore medicines, wait for me to sew it up a little, it should be fine, as long as you are careful not to crack the wound later, it will be completely healed in ten days, but this arrow wound must be operated on immediately!"

"Open the knife?" Jinglong immediately frowned and asked, "The conditions here are so simple, can it work?"

The old military doctor nodded, and said very confidently: "It's okay, the old man has been practicing medicine for thirty years, and he has been in a humble environment, so I ask the general to fetch two basins of hot water, and I will get arrows for the prince." ”

Jinglong hesitated for a moment, knowing that there was no way at this time, he could only listen to the old military doctor, and quickly agreed, and walked out quickly, and the woman who was eavesdropping next to her was also so frightened that she couldn't speak after knowing that the person lying on the bed turned out to be the prince of the court.

Thinking of this, the woman's eyes were blackened, and she almost fainted with fright.

But here Gu Xuan was still in the mood to chat with the old military doctor, and said with a smile: "The injury under me is about to annoy Mr. Lao, and it has caused you a lot of trouble, I am really guilty, and it is difficult to move in the current situation, so I won't get out of bed to give a salute." ”

When the old military doctor heard this, he hurriedly bowed down and said: "The prince is serious, such a thing happened, it is a dereliction of duty in our army, and it is even more natural to treat the prince's injuries. ”

He has been in the army for a full thirty years, and almost all of these soldiers outside are those he watched get up step by step in the army, he has never married or had no children in his life, and looking at these people is the same as looking at his own children, at this time he naturally can't help but boldly admonish, not to mention that he is now dying, most of his feet have stepped into the coffin, and it doesn't matter if he is offensive or not, bold or not, it is just a big deal.

Gu Xuan hurriedly waved his hand and said, "It's okay, I'm 。。。。。。 ”

He paused slightly, then reacted, and continued: "This king naturally understands your difficulties, the border passes stretch for thousands of miles, even if you set up a pass in a dangerous place, it is difficult to keep a fish that slips through the net to sneak in, tonight's incident is just an accident, it is this king in order to save these villagers that he is good at advocating to fight with those horse bandits, it is not the fault of your soldiers, the soldiers are for the country and the people, regardless of cold and summer, and have guarded the border for many years, my Liang country can have today's grand occasion, and the soldiers have made great contributions, how can they still be harshly criticized?" This matter will pass like this, and there is no need to report it, but the soldiers still need to cheer up, this tragedy in Majia Village, this king doesn't want to see him again. ”

The old military doctor had tears in his eyes, and his old face was shaking, and he actually kowtowed very solemnly, and said loudly: "The benevolence and heroism of the prince, the old man worships him, and he should sing for the prince in the army with this remnant of his life!"

Gu Xuan hurriedly struggled to stand up and help the old doctor up, and said helplessly: "Sir, it's really tormenting me, please get up quickly, how can this king be able to afford the old man's worship? Mr. has been practicing medicine for 30 years, caring about the common people, saving lives and helping the wounded, I should thank you next, sir, don't do it again." ”

The old doctor stood up tremblingly, stretched out his hand to wipe the tears from the corners of his eyes, and was so praised by Gu Xuan, the old man smiled very happily.

Seeing that the old doctor had gone to prepare the instruments, Gu Xuan couldn't help but ask, "Sir, I don't know what my injury is?"

The old military doctor took out a sharp knife from a tightly wrapped small cloth bag, turned around, and said very solemnly: "The prince is so righteous, the old man should do his best to repay the prince's kindness, although this arrow wound goes deep into the bone marrow, but with the thirty years of experience in medicine, it can be guaranteed that the prince will never have any damage afterwards!"

Gu Xuan breathed a sigh of relief at this time, and laughed lightly: "That's good, there are so many horse thieves and aliens in Hedong County waiting for me to kill, I can't scrap this arm." ”
