Chapter 119 She had originally planned to divorce him]
Chen Fenghe nodded and said, "Master Chen, Master Yuan, I know."
After that, she handed the medicine bag she was carrying to Jiang Guizhou and said, "The medicine in these water bags should be enough to treat you and your family. Just drink it like water, three times a day, and your symptoms should improve in three days. However, I advise you not to let anyone know, and it's best to stay away from others. Otherwise, I'm afraid it will bring disaster upon you."
After Shen Fenghe finished speaking, he stood up and returned to the exile team.
The day soon reached dusk. Typhoid fever and plague were rampant, and most of the villages and towns along the official road were closed off, refusing to let outsiders in.
Therefore, the exile team had no choice but to sleep in the wilderness.
The weather was getting colder day by day, and in the evening, it started snowing.
Chen Wu and his friends finally found a dilapidated land temple to shelter from the wind and snow and spend the night.
Everyone still made their own fire and cooked.
Qin Mengyue was not without worry: "Feng He, all our medicine was left to that person just now, what should we do now?"
Chen Fenghe smiled and comforted her, "Don't worry, mother. Have you forgotten that I know how to make this medicine? Look in our bamboo basket. I've already made it again. It will be ready in seven days."
Qin Mengyue finally felt relieved after hearing this. She sighed and said, "Feng He, I'm not blaming you for acting on your own. I know you have a kind heart, so please don't be suspicious. In the past, I was in the deep palace, the mother of the country, and I always thought that as long as I had the heart, I could save the world. Now that I'm in exile, I understand that saving people is not that easy. When it comes to life and death, people always have to take care of themselves first..."
Chen Fenghe nodded and said, "Mom, don't worry. I understand this principle."
There is a river next to the dilapidated temple, and everyone draws water there.
A thick layer of ice had formed on the surface of the river. Chen Fenghe chiseled a hole in the ice, then secretly took out a few fish from the space and threw them into the ice. Then, while the fish were frozen, she used a sharp branch to pick two of them. She gave one to Chen Wu and the others, and used the other to make fish soup over a fire at home.
Others were envious when they saw it.
"Ah! Look at the wife this guy married! She's a doctor, a hunter, and pretty. Why don't I have this kind of luck?"
Someone immediately mocked, "Forget it. Madam Shen is the Crown Princess! She's marrying the Crown Prince! Who do you think you are? You want to marry someone like Madam Shen?"
Chen Fenghe ignored what these people said and drank fish soup with his family around the fire.
She had bought a double-layered pottery jar in the town before. While Qin Mengyue was away, she poured some fish soup into it and added hot water into the interlayer. It was like an ancient version of a thermos cup.
Seeing this, Shen Yichuan secretly asked: “Sister, is this for my brother-in-law?”
Xiao Yunhao couldn't help but come over and said, "Sister-in-law, please serve more fish to the prince!"
Chen Fenghe couldn't help but glance at the two little brats and chuckled softly, "You're the only ones who talk too much."
After everyone had drunk the fish soup and gone to bed, Chen Fenghe secretly went to find Xiao Yunshuo and Yuan Xu.
I saw that the two of them had already changed into night clothes.
Chen Fenghe immediately understood where he was going, so she asked with a smile, "Are you going to look for someone from Jiangjia Village?"
Xiao Yunshuo felt guilty for a moment, but nodded and said truthfully, "Yes. After all, Father Jiang saved my life. Although you gave them the medicine during the day, I'm still a little worried. However, I'm going purely for Father Jiang and Gui Zhou, not for Jiang Xueruo..."
Seeing him eager to clarify and explain, Chen Fenghe couldn't help but laugh and said, "I didn't stop you from going."
Even if Xiao Yunshuo went there for Jiang Xueruo, she didn't intend to interfere.
After all, she had originally planned to divorce him after settling down.
It was common for men in ancient times to have three wives and four concubines, not to mention that he was the prince. Although he was framed now, his subordinates like Luo Yan were loyal and still lurking in secret. I am afraid they would still seize the world and the throne in the future.
Once he ascends the throne as emperor, even if he doesn't want to, in order to balance the forces of all parties, the three palaces and six courtyards will probably not be able to escape.
So, although she did have a good impression of Xiao Yunshuo, that was all.
She wouldn't let herself get sucked into it.
Xiao Yunshuo looked at her calm expression, and for some reason his heart sank. He said, "Oh..."
Does she believe him, or does she simply not care what happens between him and other women?
Yuan Xu on the side coughed twice and quietly stepped back awkwardly.
Is this the scene he can see...
Chen Fenghe handed him two pottery jars and said, "This is the fish soup I made tonight. You and Yuan Xu can share some. This is the medicine for today. After you take the medicine, I will go with you."
Xiao Yunshuo looked up at her and said, "Looking at the situation on Guizhou, I'm afraid everyone in Jiangjia Village might have been infected with typhoid fever. It would be dangerous for you to go there..."
Chen Fenghe smiled and said, "It's dangerous for me, a doctor, to go, but it's not dangerous for you two to go? Are you planning to use the medicine I left for you to save Father Jiang and the others? If the medicine runs out and you get infected, I'll be the one to treat you then."
Xiao Yunshuo was speechless for a moment. After a long moment, he sighed and said, "Alright then. But you have to promise me that if anything happens, you will hide behind me and not act recklessly."
They don't have enough medicine on them, so if the people in Jiangjia Village get excited, there's no guarantee that something might happen.
Chen Fenghe didn't bother with the details and nodded in agreement.
Anyway, she could just adapt to the situation as it came. If she really encountered danger, even if she wanted to hide behind him and act weak, her instinctive reaction trained over the years wouldn't allow it.
Xiao Yunshuo and Yuan Xu drank the fish soup and then took the medicine. As usual, the painful process took about half an hour. During this time, Chen Fenghe asked Yuan Xu to cut a few bamboos nearby.
Although Yuan Xu was puzzled, he still obediently went to chop it.
Chen Fenghe cut one end of a piece of bamboo and chiseled a hole in the other end. Then he used a thinner bamboo as a push rod and inserted it into the first section of bamboo. Then, he connected a hollow bamboo stick about the same thickness as a needle to the chiseled hole. In this way, a simple bamboo tube syringe was made.
Yuan Xu looked at Chen Fenghe suspiciously and couldn't help asking, "My Lady, what is this thing... used for?"
