Lin Xianhong's eyes were red as she looked at Ning Que infatuatedly.
"I just thought of something."
"It was you who saved the Queen Mother."
"But in order to help me, you chose to hide it."
"I want to know why you didn't tell me that you are proficient in medicine?"
Ning Que laughed.
He looked at the flowing river.
Pick up a pebble at random.
With a throw, it floated across the water.
Countless ripples appeared on the surface of the river.
"Lin Xianhong, have you forgotten everything?"
"I told you, but you didn't believe it."
"The past is like smoke, there is no need to mention it again."
"yes……"
Lin Xianhong smiled self-deprecatingly.
Looking back, Ning Que did say that.
At that time, she read medical books every day.
Once, Ning Que stood up and reminded her that she had made a mistake.
But she didn't want to hear Ning Que's explanation at all.
How could what is recorded in the book be wrong?
If he doesn't know any medical skills, he shouldn't show off!
Since then, Ning Que never mentioned it again.
"Actually, it was a mistake for you to marry me."
"You use me, and I use you."
"It's just that you never wanted to understand me."
"You always act high and mighty, yet you want to show that you care for the people, yet you never do anything. I established Heaven on Earth, and you think I'm not doing my job, clinging to the pleasure-seeking world. But you don't know that I did it to help those humiliated prostitutes live a decent life. So, I did it. And you, what have you done for them? You despise them, you hate them, yet you claim to care for the people."
Lin Xianhong listened blankly.
Drops of tears fell.
But at this moment there is no rebuttal.
"Of course, you are still a human being now."
"Not as hypocritical as before."
"At the very least, you can achieve unity of knowledge and action, using what you have learned to help the people instead of being condescending. If Uncle Chang knew what you did, he would surely be pleased."
Ning Que spoke calmly.
As a person in a higher position, one must distinguish between public and private affairs.
It was true that he hated Lin Xianhong.
But what she is doing now is indeed not easy.
As a traveling doctor, it is easy to encounter danger.
Moreover, Lin Xianhong is a woman.
"Then... have you forgiven me?" Lin Xianhong couldn't help but move forward, hope burning in his heart, "Ning Que, I..."
“You’re wrong!”
Ning Que, however, showed no mercy.
Looking at Lin Xianhong, he shook his head and chuckled.
"I will never forgive you in my life."
"There is no possibility for you and me anymore."
"But I've always been objective and never personal."
"Even if I hate you, you did a great job this time."
“…”
Lin Xianhong stood there in a daze.
In the end, he laughed miserably at himself.
"Alright, I'm leaving now."
Ning Que turned around gracefully.
His steps were brisk, without any pause.
Lin Xianhong did not leave for a long time.
Looking at the rippling river surface, I breathed a sigh of relief.
Now, Ning Que has arrived in Daye City.
There will definitely be no danger here anymore.
It's time to set off for Liaodong...
…
Ono Castle.
"Brothers, dinner is ready."
"The prince has ordered roast pork tonight."
"Don't worry, everyone has a share."
Tie Niu shouted with a copper trumpet.
The people lined up in long queues, all looking forward to it.
The strong man, Old Li, was holding a ceramic bowl.
The aroma of meat filled my nostrils, and I couldn't help but drool. Taxes in Lu were extremely high, and the people lived in extreme hardship. Even without the plague, they ate pork only a few times a year, and their most common food was fish.
"General, I have a wife and daughter at home. She is sick and can't come. Can you give me two more pieces of meat?"
"It's a small matter."
Bai Yu didn't care at all.
I cut another piece of thigh meat and put it in the bowl.
"Thank you, General. Thank you, General!"
"Don't thank me, this is all His Majesty's wish."
Bai Yu, the cold-faced and cool man, rarely smiled. He said softly, "I remember you. Is your daughter's condition better now? Are there any other difficulties at home? It would be better for your daughter to have some meat porridge and eat less roast pork."
"Okay, thank you, General!"
Old Li nodded repeatedly, "General...can I join Prince Ning's army?"
"Hahaha, that won't do." Bai Yu smiled and shook his head. "It's great that you have this desire to serve the country, but the Ning Wang Army has already been fully staffed, and they always give priority to recruiting from Jingyang."
"So that's how it is..."
Old Li seemed a little lost.
Bai Yu smiled and patted his shoulder, then added two more pieces of meat to the bowl and said calmly, "Ludi will have to reorganize its military affairs later, and you can join the army then."
"good!"
Old Li nodded vigorously.
Ning Wang’s army gave him hope.
This is an army that can truly benefit the people.
Different from those soldiers and bandits who robbed the people.
Such an army will be invincible!
Ning Que sat next to him.
There was no difference in what he ate.
A roast suckling pig with pea rice.
Looking at Lu Lixing opposite.
"Prince Lu, you should also try this roasted pig."
"Okay, thank you, King Ning."
"These pigs are all raised by the county magistrate." Ning Que picked up a piece of pork and said with a smile, "This little county magistrate has occupied 5,000 acres of fertile land. He has raised more than 500 pigs, all of which are fat and strong, while the people are starving to the point of being skin and bones. Tell me, should this corrupt official be executed?!"
“Should, should, should…”
Lu Lixing nodded repeatedly.
Looking at the pig's head in front of him, he thought of the bloodbath that had raged in Ono Castle the day before yesterday. Many officials had been dismissed and exiled, leaving almost half the county empty.
