Chapter 35 Border Passes
Compared with taking a carriage from Jiangnan to the capital, this trip, taking a carriage from the capital to the border is a really life-threatening trip.
All the way north, the climate is getting drier and drier, the fingers begin to peel uncontrollably, and the throat often feels like something is blocked because of the weather, and you need to cough a few times to clear your throat when you say a few words, so you don't leave the teacup along the way, and you get along with the wine less and less.
The little emperor liked Yan Mo very much, and his cousin-in-law called him along the way, which made Yan Mo smile brightly, and before leaving, he specially invited Yan Mo to ride with him, and the god of this book was very logical to share a car with the little emperor. The little queen probably climbed into the carriage with a small face on this trip, glared at the god with a pout, and turned her head to look out the window without saying a word. The god didn't have the time to be angry with her, carefully observing the formation of the emperor traveling in the world, there were many officials and guards, there were guards in front of the carriage to open the way, and there were officials in the middle who rode in the carriage to accompany him, and then there were palace people holding banners, and then several carriages, and after the carriages, there were palace people holding banners and armies accompanying them all the way, which could be described as vast and irresistible.
Finally, after more than half a month of jolting on the carriage, when our bodies were about to disperse, we rushed to the border on a dry and hot afternoon. Before getting off the carriage, through the curtain, I heard the sound of people kneeling on both sides of the road, long live my emperor, long live long live, long live, until the carriage drove into the Zhou military camp, it was still one after another.
Came to the tent, the enemy who had been with him for a long time finally said goodbye, a man under the sedan chair knelt on the ground, supported the ground with both hands, made a ladder, the little queen stepped on it, and got off the sedan chair first with the support of the palace maid. I then jumped out of the carriage one step ahead of me, I knew what she wanted to do, probably wanted to emulate the queen's way of getting off the sedan chair, but I really wanted to step on someone else, I didn't know if my more than 60,000-year-old body could bear it, I thought about it again and again, denied Yurun's mention yƬ, and decided to come by myself, at the moment after she stretched out her hand, she did not hesitate to lift her long skirt, jumped over the man who knelt on the ground in front of the sedan chair, and stood firmly in front of the sedan chair, which surprised everyone.
"Mother, good skills. ā
The general next to him couldn't help but make a "big" gesture, and the god bowed slightly in return, and said with a smile: "Awards, awards." ā
The little emperor Yanmo and his party entered the camp with the soldiers to discuss important matters, and the gods and queens, the women, were led by the soldiers to the barracks specially prepared by them.
The barracks are not very big from the outside, and it is even more pitiful when you walk in, but it is very clean, Yurun held the blanket that was collected from the palace and simply decorated the extremely simple bed, and spread a blanket on the two layers of quilts, which was very soft to sit on, and I don't know how many times more comfortable than sitting in the carriage.
". ā
Outside the tent door, the voice of an old man came.
"Who?"
I wondered how surprising it was that someone had come to visit me for only a long time and that I had never dealt with any old man.
"Hehe, the old man is Kong Yijiu, the military doctor of the Zhou ** team. Outside the door, the old man laughed heartily twice, and replied, his voice was full of righteousness, and it was very comfortable to listen to.
Waving his hand, Yurun put away the clothes that Fang poured out of the baggage, and said to the outsider: "Mr. Kong, please come in." ā
The curtain was opened, and an old man with black hair and white beard walked in, looking at his appearance, he was sixty years old, but his eyes were blazing, his eyes were bright, and he was a very wise old man at first glance.
Seeing that he was holding a bowl of soup in his hand, I asked curiously, "I wonder what happened to Mr. Kong?"
The old man smiled lightly, walked to the desk with the porcelain bowl, put the porcelain bowl in his hand on it, turned around and walked to this side, and said to me: "This place belongs to the north, the perennial wind and sand are pervasive, and the climate is dry. ā
"Thank you, Mr. Kong. ā
Although as an immortal, these mortal herbs can't relieve my discomfort, but the other person in the room is in need, Mr. Kong has just left, and I gave the medicine to Yurun.
"Niangniang, what are you doing?" the good medicine was handed over, but Yurun was scared.
I explained: "You have heard all the words that Mr. Kong said! This is a good medicine used to moisten the throat and get rid of dryness, don't be kind and don't repay it, drink it quickly, don't let down the kindness of the old gentleman." ā
Yurun looked reluctant to take it, but he still didn't give up, "But Mr. Kong also said that this is the medicine he specially prepared for you." Niangniang, you should drink it yourself, and give it to the slave maid, it seems that it is not in accordance with the etiquette, right?"
"What doesn't fit. Seeing her pushing and resisting, looking determined to die rather than drink, I was puzzled: "Don't you just want you to help drink a bowl of medicine, why are you so unwilling, as if I am forcing you to drink poison." ā
Yurun replied with a face: "It's poison, this bowl of medicine of unknown origin is poison." ā
"Oh, you've drunk it, poisoned?"
"No, but I do suspect there's something wrong with it. ā
"Why?"
Yurun said very reasonably: "Did Niangniang know that Mr. Kong before she came to the border gate?"
"I don't know. I shook my head: "But what if you don't know that, just because you don't know you, do you suspect that someone else has poisoned this medicine?"
"It's called prudence, just in case. ā
After all, I don't know where she found a silver needle,
Plunged into the soup in the bowl, after a while, he picked up the silver needle and brought it to his eyes, looked at it and looked at it vigorously, and after a while, he looked back at me, smiled, and then raised his head and drank the "poison".
"Why, how do you feel now, I didn't poison you!" Seeing that she drank and licked the corners of her mouth, I didn't have a good air.
"Of course. She raised her hand and wiped the corners of her mouth with her sleeve, and smiled, "It's not poisonous, and it tastes pretty good, it's a light medicinal fragrance, and it feels cool and cool in the mouth for a while, and it feels like an ice cube sliding through the throat when you drink it, it's very cold and comfortable, and after drinking it, you suddenly feel that your whole body has been relaxed and liberated, and it tastes so good." However, why didn't Niangniang drink it herself, and wanted to reward this medicine to the slave maid, which caused Yurun to misunderstand, and thought that Niangniang wanted Yurun to test the poison for Niangniang. ā
I didn't smile, "Good things, you have to know how to share." ā
