Chapter 248 You have three days to cure me
Xiangying threw some food and supplies into the Sand City as usual, planning to come back next time to see where these little people were going.
…
On the dark mountain road, General Weiyong, who was in the lead, finally found a cave where he could rest.
So he ordered all the soldiers to rest around the cave.
He stood on the protruding rocks outside the cave and looked at the soldiers stationed below.
General Weiyong spoke in a serious and high voice.
"Brothers, this invasion of South Vietnam is our mission in this life. If we can rescue the Princess and the Crown Prince and recover the Western Zhou, it will be our fortune. If not, even if we die, we must die on the battlefield!"
He opened his collar, revealing the four words "Great God Wang Ying" embroidered inside.
Hundreds of thousands of soldiers followed his lead and opened their shirts.
General Wei Yong said excitedly: "We have already placed our wives and children in Sand City. They are protected by the great god Wang Ying and will definitely not encounter war or danger."
"You all don't need to be afraid. Even if we die, it will be an honor. Great God Wang Ying will definitely arrange for a fairy boy to take us to the upper realm! There are countless delicacies and fine wines there."
The loyal and brave general raised his fist and shouted: "Death is the way to return home!"
Suddenly, thunderous cheers rang out.
“Death is the way home!”
The birds in the forest flapped their wings and flew away towards the moonlight.
General Wei Yong nodded and announced: "Rest here, and continue to move forward in two hours!"
They returned to the cave to study the topographical map.
The previous geographical location of Shacheng was actually close to Northern Qi.

Half a month after Xiangying moved into the prefect's mansion, the heavy snow finally stopped.
She had almost cured the epidemic in the entire city, leaving only the Sixth Prince sick.
"Ahem..." The Sixth Prince leaned against the couch sickly, staring at Xiangying who was preparing medicine beside him, "Did you treat my illness well?"
He is now thinner than before, his face is pale and his cheeks are slightly sunken.
Xiangying came to prescribe medicine for him every three days, and he would feel better for a long time after taking it, but his condition would never improve.
"Sixth Prince, are you questioning my medical skills?" Xiang Ying narrowed his eyes.
The Sixth Prince had to ask her for a favor, so he could only cough lightly and shook his head.
"I dare not. I am just wondering why everyone else's illness has been cured, but I am recovering so slowly?"
Xiangying poured the vitamins into clean water and stirred it twice.
She said slowly, "Because when you were sickest, you got really cold in the snow. Do you remember that?"
How could the Sixth Prince not remember!
When he learned that he was infected with the disease, he was scared to death, so he went to dismantle the granary regardless of the consequences.
If he had known earlier that it would make his condition worse, he would never have gone by himself.
Xiangying handed him some water and said, "Drink it. The more you drink, the faster you will get better. Think about it yourself. Are you feeling much better than the first day? At least you don't have a fever anymore."
Although she intentionally dragged out the Sixth Prince's illness and did not intend to let him fully recover, she was worried that he would cause trouble.
But the body has the ability to recover on its own, just a little slowly. Coupled with the medicine prescribed by Xiangying, the Sixth Prince is actually getting better.
After prescribing the medicine for him, Xiangying turned around and prepared to leave.
Xiang Qianqian, who had been standing in the corner, decided to step forward and serve the Sixth Prince.
Suddenly, the Sixth Prince called out to her, "Xiangying, the snow has stopped. In three days, I will give the order to set off for Shangjing City."
"I received news that my father has sent my uncle, Prince Yong, to join us. When the time comes, my uncle will not be as easy to talk to as I am."
What this meant was that the Sixth Prince asked Xiangying to cure him within three days.
Otherwise, if King Yong comes, he will have plenty of ways to make things difficult for her.
But Xiangying had already planned to make the Sixth Prince recover before going to the capital.
Otherwise, he would be sick all the way, and with the Sixth Prince's temper that likes to make trouble for others, they would never have an easy time.
However, facing the Sixth Prince, Xiangying still maintained a high profile.
"Really? Then we'll talk about it later."
She turned and left. The Sixth Prince gritted his teeth in anger and stared at her back, his eyes filled with rage.
Xiang Qianqian carefully advised: "Your Highness, it's time for you to take your medicine."
In her hand she held the bowl of water, which contained the medicine Xiangying had just prescribed.
The Sixth Prince said fiercely, "What medicine are you drinking? This is just plain water. I have asked the military doctor and he said there is not even a hint of medicine in it!"
"This damned woman Xiangying is torturing me on purpose. When I get better, I will kill her!"
Just then, his confidant walked in quickly.
"Your Highness, I have a new discovery!"
The Sixth Prince immediately looked at Xiang Qianqian and said, "Go out and stand guard at the door."
Xiang Qianqian bowed her head and left. When she reached the door, she listened quietly.
I only vaguely heard a few words——
"...Prince Yong is looking for...Yin Feihua..."

When Prince Yong arrived in Baicheng, he thought he would see devastation.
But he didn't expect that the White City he saw was a prosperous and peaceful place!
The snow on the road was swept away and piled neatly on both sides.
I don’t know which skillful people made so many snowmen along the way and hung colorful silks on them.
The north wind whistled past, and the colorful silks rustled as if welcoming guests with joy.
Prince Yong was puzzled and asked the guards around him: "Before coming here, my brother clearly said that Baicheng was plagued by plague and the entire exile team was forced to stop here. Why do they look so full of vitality?"
The guard also shook his head: "I don't know, Your Majesty, I will go forward and find out."
Just as he finished speaking, a group of horses' hooves stepped on the snow in the distance, and someone rode a horse and led people towards them.
Because he was facing away from the sun, King Yong could not see clearly at first, but then he took a closer look.
It’s Jie Chen.
The horse stopped in front of King Yong and Xie Chen dismounted.
"Greetings, Your Majesty."
"No need to be polite," Prince Yong said quickly, "My brother asked me to bring granaries to help Baicheng. Deputy General Jie, are you all right?"
Xie Chen nodded and said, "More than 62,000 people in Baicheng were infected with the disease before. Now they have all recovered and life in the city has returned to normal. This is all thanks to the medicine prescribed by the master."
Prince Yong's eyes lit up: "How could there be such a great man? Introduce him to me."
Xie Chen held out his hand: "Your Highness, please come this way."
They went directly to the city garrison.
Prince Yong looked confused.
These people actually lived in the city garrison?
As soon as he entered the door, the city garrison commander, who had been waiting nearby, knelt down and cried.
"Your Majesty, please help me. The deputy general allowed the female prisoner from Western Zhou to occupy my residence and even let those sick people live in my house!"
King Yong hated the people of Western Zhou the most. When he heard this, he suddenly frowned and looked fiercely at Jie Chen.
"Is this true? Deputy General, I have to remind you that prisoners are prisoners. You cannot treat them as human beings!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he was hit on the back of the head by a stone.
