Xiaohua still couldn't taste the wine in the gourd, the girl protected it very tightly, and Xiaohua couldn't get it, which made Li Congwen feel sorry for it for a long time.

The convoy traveled for more than ten days, and there was much less food on the car, so the speed of the journey was also slightly improved.

After they finished delivering food to the villages along the road, they would go directly to Ezhou to replenish supplies, and then take the sailor warship down the river, and so on.

There are many such grain transport teams, silently helping hundreds of thousands of families in Chudi who have suffered from floods to survive the natural disaster.

Today, the convoy came to a small town by the river, because it is not far from Ezhou, and there is not much food needed.

After the men moved the grain, the ox carts, donkey carts, and wagons only had enough food for seven or eight days on the road, and they would stop in one village and then go straight to the city of Ezhou.

The girl and the old man came to the street after seeing a family, and Xiaohua followed.

He looked at the town that was obviously more lively than before, and was about to follow the two of them to walk around, when he saw a lot of people surrounding a house, and there was a quarrel.

The girl and the old man obviously loved to watch the excitement, so they ran to watch.

Xiaohua also likes to be lively, Li Congwen doesn't know why he still likes to watch it even if he doesn't understand.

The street was not wide and full of people, but it was not a problem for Xiaohua, and her soft body squeezed in at the feet of the onlookers, and came to the front.

Others recognized the girl and the old man as doctors, and led them to the front.

The old man saw eight people standing at the door of the house, six of them were quite strong, with some fierce faces, and all of them had broad-backed knives at their waists.

The other two should be a father and son, and it is these two who quarrel.

"What's the matter?" the old man asked the people next to him, and Li Congwen and the girl also pricked up their ears to listen.

"Hey, it's not a big deal, the child's father wants to send him to study in the academy in Ezhou City, but the son refuses, he wants to stay in the town and farm, and he is arguing. ”

The old man touched his beard suddenly, obviously knowing about the academy, "What about those fierce gods over there?"

"Oh, those are bandits from the mountains next to them. ”

"Huh?" the old man was stunned for a moment, and then looked at a few people, he did look like a bandit, but he was even more strange, "The bandit doesn't rob houses, what are you doing at the door of people's houses?"

"The bandits all went out of town, and they came back to help after the flood. Then the father asked them to escort his son on the road, and who knew that his son would not want to, wouldn't it be noisy?"

The old man and the girl were dumbfounded, one was not deeply involved in the world, and the other had not been back for some years, and they didn't know much about the bandits here.

The old man has seen the bandits in the north, and all of them are fierce, and when Beirong was still an enemy country in the past, they dared to rush across the frontier to rob the things of the Rong people.

However, the old man still prefers the bandits here, although the means of making a living are not commendable, but at least he will not forget his roots.

After listening to Li Congwen's relay, Xiaohua on the side asked suspiciously: "Why do you want to go to the academy to study?

He was clearly supportive of the child.

Li Congwen sighed, "It's not ......."

It's just that he didn't say anything for a long time, so he could only summarize it.

The benefits are numerous.

Xiaohua obviously didn't take it seriously, but she just thought that the quarrel between the two was quite interesting.

"I'm not going!"

"What can you grow from farming? The government has already issued a notice before, if the students of the academy have excellent grades in the teaching examination, they can enter the court as officials, that is a major event to honor the ancestors, is it not better than you and me farming?" The child's father pointed at the child with his finger and said with a red face.

Although the child is not as good as his father, he also has his own thoughts, "I went to the academy, who will plant so much land at home? How can you finish planting by yourself? What if there is not enough food to eat when the time comes?"

"If you pass the teaching examination and become an official, what kind of land do you have to plant!"

The child stubbornly don't overdo it, it shouldn't.

Several thieves on the side looked embarrassed, and froze next to them not knowing what to say.

None of the onlookers spoke, but the old man, who was still an outsider not long after he arrived, stepped forward and arched his hand at a few people.

"The old man doesn't want to take care of your family affairs, just say a few words casually, I hope you don't want to be surprised. The old man saw a few people looking at him, and smiled slightly, "Xiaoyou doesn't want to go to the academy, but it's because the father of the family can't grow it alone?"

When he saw the child nodding, he didn't wait for him to speak, so he listened to the thieves say, "Xiaotan, don't worry, we will help your father plant." ”

They had no land, but because of the floods, there were fewer merchants coming and going, and they might be hungry. It would be great if you could get some food by helping people farm the land.

Lao Tu saw that the kid was still hesitant, and continued: "It's a great thing to go to the academy to study, not to mention that the restraint is very low, not to mention whether you can get famous, even if you only know a few words, it is very beneficial to read a few books." You can only understand this when you go, the old man will never lie to you. ”

He said no more, turned and walked out of the crowd, and the girl left, but she bowed her head, as if thinking about something.

Xiaohua looked at it for a while, and felt that it was not interesting and followed unhurriedly.

As soon as he walked to the girl's feet, Li Congwen heard the girl say, "Tu Lao, I want to study medicine." ”

The old man was stunned, "Don't you like it?"

He walked to the river and motioned for the girl to sit down, and then smiled at the girl, "Stimulated by that child?"

"No, it's to carry on my father's legacy. The girl shook her head, took a sip of the wine gourd, felt the blazing heat in her throat, pursed her lips, the corners of her mouth curled up but there was no smile, "My father's medical skills were taught by my grandfather, and my father also traveled around the world like you, curing diseases and saving people, and then met my mother."

My mother is also a doctor, and after they had me, they lived in seclusion in Lushan, and my father only occasionally went out to treat people.

It was a great time in the mountains, and I adored my parents. Because they are both doctors, they want to train me to be a famous doctor.

At that time, I was not averse to studying medicine, until one day my father brought back a jar of wine from a village, and I realized that I wanted to know more about how a good jar of wine was made than how to heal people.

Later, when I was studying medicine, I slacked off, and they didn't beat and scolded me, but let me mess around with the wine jar.

But what I really hated about studying medicine was that time.

That time, my father was going to see a doctor in a village with an epidemic, and he had treated the epidemic before, so we were not worried. Before leaving, my father told me that he would bring me a jar of good wine, but then he brought back a plague.

That kind of epidemic is not easily contagious, but my mother can't cure it, and as my father's health deteriorates day by day, my mother let herself be infected with the disease and try the medicine by herself.

But the medicine still didn't come out, my father died, and I took care of my mother alone, but my mother was disheartened and didn't last long to follow my father.

Since then, I haven't studied medicine. ”

Xiaohua looked at the girl in a daze and said a lot, and when she stopped, she couldn't wait to ask, "What did she say?"

"Shhh Li Congwen heard about Xing, but he didn't want to be interrupted.

Xiaohua pursed her lips and swayed a piece of grass from side to side with her paws.

The old man shook his head and smiled: "Since you hate medical skills, why do you want to make medicines?"

The girl listened to the sound of the river and lowered her head, "I finally feel guilty." ”

The heat in the wind is carried away, and the coolness of the sky is swept away.

"Autumn is coming. The old man tightened his collar and smiled at the girl: "Do you feel guilty? ”

Li Congwen wanted to see Dajiang and the capital, which was far away from Dajiang, but Xiaohua only stared at the grass in front of him, so he couldn't see it.

But he expected that the capital at this moment should be extremely beautiful.

......

The capital, the Imperial Palace.

Divine Doctor Ding felt that he was one step closer to Yang Qi before, but he didn't expect it to come so quickly.

Two days ago, the chief imperial physician came to inform him to prepare in advance, saying that His Majesty was going to the Regent's Mansion and asked him to accompany him to check Yang Qi's body.

Fortunately, he had been informed in advance, and he had more time to prepare the poison.

For this purpose he prepared a chronic poison, colorless and odorless, which would not be possible for even a skilled medical person to detect at first, and then the disease would be no different from typhoid fever, but it would be fatal.

He dared to guarantee that as long as Yang Qi took the medicine he used, Yang Qi would definitely die, and he would not be exposed.

Today is the day of travel, Doctor Ding stood in the small courtyard, smiling and watching the palace maid busy in the palace.

They had to replace the plants that were still thriving with bonsai adapted to autumn.

Even though the season of withering is coming, the herbs in front of him are still competing for beauty, which makes Doctor Ding feel a little high-spirited.

Although it will be some time before Yang Qi is poisoned, Yang Qi is already a dead man in his heart.

If you kill the door, you will get revenge.

His high spirits are also natural in the eyes of others, after all, he has fallen into the eyes of His Majesty, and his future is immeasurable.

The chief physician also gave him his secret prescription, although Doctor Ding may not admit his affection, but officialdom is like this.

Doctor Ding waited at the west gate for a while, and then he was surrounded by guards, and then he was fortunate to see the emperor traveling, and Rao was stunned for a long time with his killer's calm heart.

The imperial carriage was six horse-drawn horses, and there was one in eighty carriages, carrying guide covers, basins, floating dust, spit pots and other ritual utensils, and there were hundreds of forbidden troops, and the seemingly spacious avenue also seemed a little crowded.

Divine Doctor Ding came back to his senses, hurriedly glanced at the Son of Heaven's car, and then lowered his head to follow. It's just that he was a little surprised that a few of the people who accompanied him on horseback next to the frame of the Son of Heaven seemed to be quite familiar with him.

It seems to be Ilying, Taejeong, and Luo Li, how could they be here?

However, they didn't seem to hinder their plans, and Doctor Ding didn't think much about it.

I thought about what I had to do in my mind, and I felt that the personnel were exhausted, and the rest depended on the will of God.

Since it is providential, I don't have to think about it.

Listening to the sound of the iron armor rubbing around him, Divine Doctor Ding felt that he could think about what would happen after he took revenge.

Perhaps, be a good doctor, heal the sick and save people?

Divine Doctor Ding shook his head slightly, when did his duty become a wish?

It's a pity that I gave up too much for revenge.
