Chapter 40 I Want You
Jie Chen watched coldly from a distance.
The two military supervisors beside him, seeing that Xiangying was on the verge of a fight and ready to fight at any time, wanted to step forward to stop them.
But Jie Chen stopped him.
He said calmly: "Let her solve it herself."
The two military supervisors looked at each other, seeming to want to say something but stopping themselves.
They weren't afraid of Xiangying getting hurt.
After spending these few days together, everyone can see that this Princess of the Western Zhou Dynasty is very skilled in martial arts and can kill people without blinking an eye.
They were afraid that Xiangying would punch the old lady to death.
Does Jie Jianjun's behavior count as taking sides?
Over there, Concubine Shangguan took a long breath.
"Well, since you two brothers and sisters are so ignorant of the rules, if anything happens in the future, don't blame me for not giving you a chance."
"From now on, we are no longer a family."
After she finished speaking, she turned back with a stern look and gave instructions to the concubines who were gathered around her.
"Remember, don't ask this noble princess for food in the future. It's better to starve to death than to give in. If she comes to us for help in the future, don't lend a helping hand!"
After saying that, Concubine Shangguan was supported by Xiang Qianqian and left.
Seeing Xiangying's cold eyes, the others did not dare to come forward and talk to her.
Tao Xue grumbled angrily, "Who would beg them? Our eldest princess is so powerful."
"Brother, Concubine Shangguan is here alone, where is her son Prince Xuan?" Xiangying suddenly remembered this.
"Uncle Xuan escorted my father away before the city was breached," Xiangli said in a low and gentle voice, "but Concubine Shangguan was old and left a little late, so she was caught by the pursuers."
Another one who left his family behind and ran away.
…
Have a good night's sleep.
Xiangying woke up after sleeping for a while, and the sky was still dark.
She stood up and examined the insect repellent herbs spread around the children.
The forest was damp and one could always hear the rustling of insects. At night, Xiangying even heard the sound of snakes crawling nearby.
After spreading some more herbs for the children, Taoxue and Xiangli, Xiangying went into the space to sort out the supplies.
It has been half a month since we were exiled, and less than one tenth of the food in the space has been consumed.
Xiangying went to the sixth floor.
Looking at the locked blue screen leading to the seventh floor, it still showed: 20000/80000 copies.
To unlock the seventh floor, you need to stockpile another 60,000 supplies.
Xiangying was a little annoyed. He didn't know when he would reach the next town. Would there be enough supplies?
When daybreak came, cries of commotion and panic could be heard from the front and back of the exile team.
The three little ones ate the sauerkraut meat buns while blinking their big eyes and watched curiously.
Xiangying is rebandaging Xiangli's broken arm.
Hearing the frequent wailing coming from the front, she called Taoxue: "Go and see what's going on. What's going on again?"
It was too humid in the forest. Xiangli lay on the wooden cart and a faint rash appeared on his back.
Today she wanted to wave her whip and urge the exile team to get out of the woods quickly.
Lin Lingxiang came to wipe Xiangli's body.
I still feel a little uncomfortable when we are apart.
Normally he wipes his chest himself, but now his left arm is broken and there are some places he cannot wipe.
Lin Lingxiang looked normal, her voice was very gentle, and her eyes were bright.
"Your Highness, just treat me as a serving maid."
"That won't work." Xiangli frowned slightly, but Lin Lingxiang smiled in return.
He covered his legs with his clothes while she wiped his chest.
She wiped Xiangli's back, but Xiangli was only willing to take off half of his robe, leaving his shoulders exposed.
Lin Lingxiang was too embarrassed to open his clothes.
Xiangying saw the two of them wasting time and was about to go up and tear off Xiangli's clothes so that Lin Lingxiang could wipe them clean.
At this time Tao Xue staggered back with a pale face.
"The military doctor was bitten by bugs. Four or five of them sucked blood out of his body. It's horrible! It looks like he's dying. The military supervisors are trying to find a solution!"
Lin Lingxiang was startled when she heard this, and pressed the hand holding the handkerchief tightly on Xiang Li's abdominal muscles.
He groaned in pain and raised his thin eyes with a faint innocent look, only to see that Lin Lingxiang hadn't noticed yet and was busy talking to Xiangying.
"There is only one military doctor in our exile team. If he dies..."
Lin Lingxiang didn't dare to say out loud her subsequent guess.
Although the military doctors would not treat them, it was better to have someone with medical skills in the exile group.
Xiang Yuanxiao, who was holding a bun in his mouth, snorted and said, "He deserves it."
Xiangying knew that the military doctor was bitten by insects most likely because of her eldest son.
Why did this military doctor have to offend the cute and cheerful-looking little Crow Mouth?
"I'll go and take a look." Xiangying asked Taoxue to look after the children and took the initiative to walk to the front of the exile team.
Lin Lingxiang looked at Xiangying's back, feeling a little worried, until Xiangli gently took her hand away, and then Lin Lingxiang came to her senses.
"Ah!" She exclaimed, her face suddenly flushed, "I, I just... I'm sorry, Your Highness, I didn't mean it."
"It doesn't matter."
The more Xiangli said this, the more embarrassed Lin Lingxiang felt. She found an excuse to go see Old Master Lin and left in a hurry.
The three little ones watched this scene from the side.
Xiang Yuanxiao: "Did uncle beat Aunt Lin? Why did she run away with her face covered?"
Xiang Xiuxiu retorted: "Impossible, my uncle never hits anyone!"
Xiangying has already walked to Lichen's side.
They surrounded the military doctor, and the soldiers offered solutions at once.
But they had tried everything they could, including the herbs they brought with them, but nothing worked.
Scarface saw Xiangying coming and took the initiative to make way for her.
Xiangying squeezed in and saw the military doctor lying on the ground groaning in pain. His clothes were lifted up, revealing his stomach, with four or five bloody holes on the side and arms.
The most terrifying thing is that there are insect tentacles exposed outside each blood hole.
Because no one knows whether the bug will continue to bite people, no one dares to touch it.
The skinny monkey kept shaking his head: "It's definitely incurable. He's a military doctor and he can't cure it himself. What can we do?"
A soldier said, "I heard that this kind of bug is called a killer bug. Once you are bitten by it, it will drill into your flesh!"
The military supervisor beside Xie Chen didn't believe it and said, "Why don't we just pull the bug out directly?"
Just as he was about to reach out his hand, Xiangying's voice came from the crowd: "You can't pull it out, it's a tick."
Xie Chen and the soldiers all looked at her.
"Do you recognize this bug?" Xie Chen asked.
Xiangying nodded: "It's useless to pull out a tick. Its body has already penetrated into the body of the military doctor."
After she finished speaking, everyone around her felt a chill and fear.
"It was useless for the military doctor to tie all the herbs around him yesterday. The poisonous insects in this old forest are really weird!"
At this time, the dying military doctor reached out and grabbed Xiangying's skirt.
He said in a weak voice: "Save me, you must know how to save me... I was wrong, I shouldn't have snatched the herbs from you."
The military doctor had to bow his head. No one else was bitten, except him, where the insects had drilled bloody holes in his body.
Xiangying crossed his arms, his eyes drooping coldly: "I never meddle in other people's business, and besides, I am a prisoner now."
"However," she changed the subject, raised her eyes, and a faint smile appeared on her red lips, "If Jie Jianjun is willing to ask me for help, I would consider helping."
Xiangying is extremely handsome and heroic. He looks cold and aloof when he is not smiling, but when he smiles, his eyes are bright and charming, and he is harmless to people and animals.
When Jie Chen saw her smiling like that, he inexplicably felt his whole body tense up.
He pursed his lips and said in a bad tone: "Do you want to die?"
Xiang Ying's long, slender eyelashes fluttered twice: "Whether to save him or not, I will listen to you, but if you have this attitude, I'm sorry I can't do anything."
The military doctor was about to cry.
"Jianjun Jie, just agree to her request! I am the only doctor in the team!"
The other two military supervisors also pulled Jie Chen aside to persuade him.
"Since she has the ability, let her try."
"Yes, actually, since Xiangying is so pretty, even if she makes some excessive demands, it won't be a disadvantage for Brother Jie."
Xie Chen's eyes were as sharp as knives.
The two military supervisors coughed twice.
Finally, consider that the military doctor is indeed the only doctor.
Xie Chen turned to Xiangying and asked, "What do you want in exchange for saving him?"
"I want this." Xiangying stretched out his hand and pointed to a place.
Everyone looked forward in the direction of her finger and found that the person she was pointing at was Jie Chen.
The soldiers looked as if they had suddenly understood something.
Xie Chen's back of his hand was bulging with blue veins, and he shouted in a deep voice: "Xiang Ying!"
