Chapter Twenty-Four: King Yingchuan 3
Everyone was shocked to see what was going on, and hurried to the soldier who vomited blood. I saw many soldiers lying on the ground, still holding medicine bowls in their hands, coughing up a mouthful of blood from time to time, and it looked like they were about to die.
Poria quickly put her hand on the position of the inch, checked the soldier's condition, frowned slightly, and then walked to the cauldron of decoction and sniffed it, and then went to the stacked medicinal herbs to check them one by one.
Everyone didn't understand what Poria was doing, but they just watched her run around, as if they had discovered the reason why the soldier drank the medicine and vomited blood.
Soon Poria came back and kicked the cauldron over, and the princess asked, "What's the matter?"
Poria said angrily: "Hmph, someone is actually selling fake drugs under my nose, let me know who it is, I want him to know the consequences of selling fake drugs"
"Fake medicine?" everyone rushed to check, but found no fake medicine.
Poria went to the other party's place with medicinal herbs in a huff, threw bundles of medicinal herbs to the ground, and then said: "There is a Huoxiang stalk in my prescription, this is the Huoxiang stalk you bought, this is obviously a tree branch."
Everyone looked at this medicinal material, and there was a smell of Huoxiang on it, and they really couldn't see what was fake, and they looked at Poria cocos with a blank face.
"Isn't this the Herb Terrier? he still smells of Herb on it," Long Lan Warrior Nose said.
"Hmph, take a branch and soak it in the perfume, and this is it. When I boiled the water again, all the medicinal effects of the herb were gone, and the useless things in the branches were boiled out, resulting in uneven medicinal power. If you don't believe it, you can take it and find someone who understands medicine," Poria said angrily.
The princess immediately called the military doctors, and after more than a dozen military doctors checked the medicinal materials, they all said that it was Huoxiang Terrier, and Poria looked at these military doctors helplessly, and then remembered something and said: "Okay, you go and see the dregs after frying."
More than a dozen military doctors went to fish out the medicine residue one by one, and after checking, they determined that the pot was indeed boiling branches, and everyone believed Poria cocos' words.
"Long Yu, where did you buy these medicines?" the princess asked sharply.
Long Yu hurriedly recalled, and then said: "The medicine brought by King Qi before was used up in Fancheng, and the medicine brought by the Qilin Army was partially used in Fancheng, and the rest was scattered along the road. The medicines were bought along the road, in different pharmacies"
"Do you remember which pharmacies?" Yang Chengfeng asked solemnly.
"Baicaotang, Changqingtang, and Pujitang, these three," Long Yu replied.
"No, these three are the best pharmacies in the Yun Kingdom, and they won't sell fake medicines," Ouyang Quan said as he spoke.
Everyone fell into deep thought, and Poria reminded her: "If you can't find a suitable Huoxiang stalk, this disease will spread."
"Come, buy again," the princess commanded.
Yang Chengfeng stopped and said, "Your Royal Highness, the medicinal herb shops in the surrounding counties are the largest among these three, and even these three are fake, I'm afraid it will be difficult to buy the real one." Besides, daring to sell fake medicine to the imperial court is very unusual."
"General Yang, what do you say?"
"Let His Majesty's medicine delivery team come day and night," Yang Chengfeng said helplessly.
"It's too late, it will take them ten days to get here, and I am afraid that the plague will spread in the barracks in these ten days, and even deteriorate, and at that time, the 400,000 troops here will have no combat effectiveness at all."
Everyone fell into a dilemma, but Yang Yan on the side said: "Isn't this the past the big beam? Why don't you go to the big beam to buy it?"
"No"
As soon as Yang Yan's words were finished, he was opposed by everyone, and now that the war is urgent, if you run to Daliang, I am afraid that there will be no return.
"Don't have this kind of thought" The princess looked at Yang Yan and said with worry in her eyes, for fear that Yang Yan would be stupid again and go to Daliang alone.
"So what's going on now?" Long Lan asked worriedly.
All present at this question were silent, watching thousands of soldiers suffering from the disease, and the medicine was still on leave, if it dragged on like this, no one could guarantee what would happen to the epidemic.
Suddenly, Ouyang Quan on the side thought for a while and said: "Otherwise, I will go to the surrounding counties with Ye Ming, Xiaolan, Ai Yiming and Long Yu separately to see if we can buy real Huoxiang Terriers, we can't wait here."
The princess Yang Chengfeng nodded, and then the princess took out a dozen silver tickets and gave them to Ouyang Quan, and said: "Each of you brings a military doctor to go there, you must verify the authenticity, these fake medicines, and then check them out when you go back."
Ouyang Quan took the silver ticket and asked jokingly: "Sister Ling, aren't you afraid that I will run away from the money when I am tired?"
"Do you want Xiaolan to come with you?" the princess asked with a raised eyebrow.
Ouyang Quan's head was like a rattle, shaking back and forth, and Long Lan on the side pouted, and said dissatisfiedly: "Cut, whoever wants to go with him, if he dares to take the money and run away, I will break his legs."
"Xiaolan, it's not allowed to talk to King Qi like this," Long Yu scolded sharply.
Everyone didn't answer, causing a burst of laughter, Ouyang Quan's face suddenly collapsed, and he quickly divided the money and slipped out of the isolation camp with the military doctor. The rest of the people also divided into five routes, and each of them went to buy Huoxiang stalks.
Poria came to the side of the blood-vomiting soldier, watching him dying, it was difficult to breathe in one breath, and his brows were slightly furrowed.
"Is she still saved?" Yang asked as he spoke.
Poria shook her head and said slowly: "He was already seriously ill, and his yang qi was very weak, but now a few mouthfuls of blood spurted out, and all the yang qi was drained, and within an hour, he died."
Hearing this, Yang Chengfeng and the princess both sighed, but Yang Yan pulled Poria to the side and asked in a low voice, "Is Bigu Dan useless?"
Poria turned white angrily, and Yang Yan glanced at him and whispered: "You should be Bigu Dan is an elixir, his yang qi is hanging now, and once he can't hang it, he will die." In this situation, unless you use the mid-level six-pattern Returning Yang Pill, no one can save it. But you know, I can't give pills to mortals."
Yang Yan also shook his head helplessly, and muttered in a low voice: "What kind of rules are set by the Medicine King, if you don't save you when you die?"
Poria tapped Yang Yan's head and responded: "Don't question my master, everyone has their own life, if I use the elixir to save everyone, do you want to exhaust me to death or what." Besides, this is his life, and human life is so fragile."
"What about me, am I not the same?" Yang Yan asked.
"You're different, I always feel that it's not so simple for you to come back to life" Poria said this, looking straight into Yang Yan's eyes, and the faces of the two were almost together.
This scene was seen by the princess and Yang Chengfeng, Yang Chengfeng was embarrassed for a while, but the princess took a look at it, and then checked the patients around who drank the medicine again.
"What is this called, it's good to have a princess, and now there is one more, is the old Yang family going to be prosperous soon?" Yang Chengfeng glanced at Poria and then looked at the princess, and then thought in his heart: "One mountain does not tolerate two tigers, the Yang family is afraid that it will be uneasy in the future, but fortunately, I just married one"
After the two whispered, they came to the princess Yang Chengfeng, and at this time, the princess had already ordered someone to gather all those who had drunk the medicine and vomited blood.
Then looking at these soldiers who were dying, he said slowly: "You are soldiers who defend the country and the safety of tens of millions of people in Yun Kingdom, here, on behalf of Your Majesty, on behalf of tens of millions of people in Yun Kingdom, I would like to thank you" The princess said, bowing to those people.
Those soldiers knew that they would not live long, and their tears could not stop flowing out, and Yang Chengfeng on the side saw this and said: "I know your concerns, your family, General Bai Qing and I will help you take care of it." ”
"Although you are not killed on the battlefield, General Bai Qing and I will report to Your Majesty that you are the best soldiers in the Yun Kingdom and the martyrs of the Yun Kingdom."
When Yang Chengfeng said this, many people had slowly closed their eyes, and finally couldn't hold back in one breath, and died happily.
As Poria said, these seriously ill soldiers who drank fake medicine closed their eyes one after another, and all died within an hour, in order to prevent the spread of the plague, the corpses of these soldiers were all burned, but their names were engraved on the martyrs' monument of Yunguo in southern Xinjiang.
The princess, Yang Chengfeng and Yang Yan followed Poria again to check all the patients in the isolation camp, and after there were no seriously ill ones, the four of them found their tents to rest.
There are very few female dependents in the army, and at the request of the princess, Poria and the princess live in a tent, but Yang Yan lives in the officer's tent, which is also specially explained by Yang Chengfeng.
At night, the climate in southern Xinjiang is exceptionally refreshing, with strong winds blowing non-stop, stars covering the entire sky, and occasional meteors passing by.
Yang Yan couldn't sleep, he left the camp, and went to the surrounding grassland, lying on the grass and watching the stars alone, constantly thinking about what Yang Chengfeng said during the day, and he had a lot of thoughts for a while.
"Why are you so unfamiliar with this Yang Luochen, am I really Yang Luochen?" Yang Yan thought as he looked at the starry sky.
Suddenly, a voice interrupted Yang Yan.
"What do you want?" the princess asked, not knowing when she arrived at Yang Yan's side, sitting on the ground and looking at him.
"Hmm, when did she come, why didn't I notice it at all" Yang Yan was a little shocked in his heart at this time, this feeling, in addition to Poria and the black robe, this princess is the third, "Could it be that she is also a heaven-level martial artist, or above the middle level?"
"Are you wondering why you can't notice what I'm coming from?" asked the princess, looking at Yang Yan with big eyes.
"How do you know?"
The princess slowly took off her veil, and a beautiful face was displayed in front of Yang Yan, with delicate facial features and a lovely smile, which made Yang Yan a little stupid, although it was not as enchanting as Poria cocos, but there was also some different kind of beauty.
"What's the matter, don't I look good?" Princess Jian Yang Yan was a little stunned and asked jokingly.
Yang Yan shook his head unconsciously, and then asked, "You are also a Heavenly Rank Martial Artist?"
The princess looked at him boredly, then looked at the starry sky, and said slowly: "I was in the middle of the heavenly ladder eight years ago."
"And now, the Heavenly Ladder?"
The princess didn't answer, but said, "My name is Ouyang Ling, the fourth princess of the royal family."
"Ouyang Ling, so your name is Ouyang Ling," Yang Yan muttered as she looked at the princess's back.
Princess Ouyang Ling didn't care about Yang Yan, and then said: "I remember when I was a child, I, Long Yu always ran behind you, you took us to mess around in the palace, and provoked the eldest brother to chase us everywhere to beat us."
"At that time, we didn't think as much as we do now, and we didn't have the same worries as we do now. You have a very high talent in martial arts, and you often fought against your eldest brother when you were a child, and you are the only one who can beat my elder brothers."
"When I was ten years old, they wanted to take you to Southern Xinjiang, and you didn't come if you died, I cried with Long Yu, I went to beg my father to let you stay in Yunjing, but my father locked me up. Later, General Yang gave you a beating and dragged you to southern Xinjiang."
"I didn't expect you to be away for five years, and then you came back, and the breath of a rich kid on your body was gone, and you taught me to practice martial arts with Long Yu, and asked us to arrange troops and tell us about the battlefield. We have been together in Yunjing for just three months."
"After that, you took Long Yu away and left me alone in Yunjing. You said you'd come back when you were eighteen years old, with a battle that no one had ever done. But at the age of eighteen you missed your appointment."
"I would have thought that you died in the battle in southern Xinjiang, but you will never commit treason, but the news did not report that you were missing, and you disappeared in Daliang. I sneaked out alone, and came to southern Xinjiang for the first time, and I want General Yang to tell me the truth with my own ears."
"After I arrived in southern Xinjiang, General Yang told me, you went to Daliang alone, you want to find out why Daliang has been harassing Yunguo, for more than 30 years, you want to quell this senseless war, and return Yunguo and Daliang a peaceful life"
"You have been gone for two years, and there has been no news for two years, and I was also sent back to Yunjing by General Yang, silently waiting for you to come back. Suddenly, one day, Yunjing received news from southern Xinjiang, saying that you were back, and you also brought the armistice agreement of the Great Liang Emperor. At that moment, did you know that the entire cloud country was boiling. ”
"How many people have wanted to do this, but it has not been realized, one-third of the taxes in the cloud country are used for military salaries, this kind of burden, the people's life is not easy. What you brought back this trip is the gospel of tens of millions of people in the entire Yun Kingdom, the gospel of the people of Daliang, and the gospel of those soldiers who have been guarding the southern Xinjiang all year round."
"The armistice agreement you brought back has made southern Xinjiang stable for five years, and you have also been named the king of Yingchuan of the opposite sex by your father, and you enjoy the treatment of a prince. However, I waited with great anticipation for you to return to Yunjing, but you took the Qilin Army to the north, and after that, there was no news of you, and you disappeared again. And so on, that is, eight years. I always thought something was wrong with you, but they kept it hidden from me, and I didn't expect you to actually come back."
Ouyang Ling said this, looking at Yang Yan affectionately, tears couldn't help but slide down her cheeks, Yang Yan looked at the woman with tears in front of her, and she really didn't know what to do.
"Don't cry yet, I can't remember anything now, I know there are some things between us, but I have to wait for me to remember" Yang Yan said, looking at Ouyang Ling on the side, remembering to scratch her ears and cheeks, her face was red.
Ouyang Ling saw Yang Yan's expression and movements, and smiled unconsciously, wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, and suddenly threw herself into Yang Yan's arms, saying, "It's okay, just come back, I'll wait for you to remember." ”
"I am willing to wait for you for the rest of your life" The last sentence was very quiet, and Ouyang Ling couldn't hear it herself, but Yang Yan heard it clearly, and then thought about the marriage contract between herself and the princess Ouyang Ling in front of her, and this intimate action now, it was a little embarrassing for a while.
Suddenly, a voice sounded behind them, and the two quickly separated.
"Talking about love here at night, the king of Yingchuan is so Yaxing"
"Who"
The two stood up at the same time, and saw a man in a black robe standing three feet behind the two, looking at the two of them, and an unpleasant and harsh voice came from the black robe.
"Yingchuan King Yang Luochen, you can be regarded as back, what do we want to get?"
