Chapter 7 The so-called garbage is precious medicine powder
The man took out a package from his sleeve, threw it at the children's feet, then turned and left.
As soon as he left, Xiangying opened her sharp phoenix eyes, without a trace of sleepiness in them.
She sat up and looked in the direction the man left.
Such profound Kung Fu, walking silently, as light as a breeze.
Xiangying picked up the things he left behind and could smell a fragrance through the oil paper wrapping.
It turned out to be a meat-filled pancake.
The food used was the pork bones and meat cooked by the group of military supervisors at night.
Is this man one of the soldiers guarding them? Why did he give food to the children?
I can't figure it out, so I decided not to think about it anymore. This person will definitely come back again.
Xiangying simply sat up, and while it was dark and quiet, he fetched a pair of scissors and insoles from the space, and quietly cut out suitable insoles according to the soles of the three children, Taoxue and his own feet.
The main feature is a thick, soft and sweat-absorbent material.
During this exile, the feet are the ones that cannot bear the most suffering.
She will make a few more knee pads when she finds a chance tomorrow.
After changing the insoles for the children, she lay down and took a nap for a while. When she opened her eyes again, it was already dawn.
The cooks in the escort team had already started preparing breakfast for the military supervisors, but these prisoners only had one meal a day, and now they could only watch helplessly.
Xiangying woke up Momoyuki and several children and stuffed eggs and buns into their hands.
Tao Xue rubbed her eyes: "Princess, this is..."
"Yellow Beard just brought it, eat it quickly."
The second son, Xiang Yuanlang, ate too quickly and choked, his little face turning red.
Xiangying quickly patted his back and took out a water bag from his sleeve and gave it to him to drink.
After a lot of effort, the little guy recovered. He looked at the water bag without saying a word, but his eyes were full of confusion as to where it came from.
How could Xiangying hide so many things on his body?
Since they were seen, Xiangying simply gave the two children and Taoxue some water to drink.
She explained calmly, "I carry it with me. If you get thirsty on the road, come find me."
Just as he finished speaking, the soldiers came in waving their whips: "Wake up, you idiots, it's already so late and you're still sleeping! Get up and get ready for the journey!"
Xiangying and Taoxue took the children out of the stable. All prisoners were given half an incense stick of time to relieve themselves, but they had to be accompanied by soldiers.
Yellow Beard had given instructions, and since Xiangying and Taoxue were both women and had three children with them, they did not look like a threat, so the soldiers told them to solve the problem on their own, but they were not allowed to run too far.
Xiangying asked Taoxue to take the three children to the toilet in the nearby bushes, and she walked towards the Qintianjian family.
The old man was surrounded by the female relatives, lying in the middle, his face was pale, and it seemed that he didn't have much time left.
They slept next to a pile of horse manure. The smell was bad and the women all looked unhappy.
The noise of Xiangying walking over made these women who had been humiliated like frightened birds. They hugged each other and looked over vigilantly.
"What does the princess want to do?" the older woman asked, with a wary look in her eyes.
Xiangying took out an oil-paper bag from his arms and threw it into the woman's arms.
It was given by the mysterious man last night. She checked it and it was not poisonous.
"Don't die on the road, take it and eat it." After saying that, she turned and left.
Xiangying's attitude caused their dissatisfaction.
A girl of about seventeen or eighteen suddenly stood up and asked Xiangying coldly from behind: "Is the princess giving you alms? We don't want it! We would rather die standing than live on our knees."
Xiangying stopped and glanced sideways: "It's not charity, it's help. Of course, if you don't accept it, just treat me as a trash can."
After saying that, she left.
The people around her looked at her silently, and the Qintianjian family was shaking with anger.
"The princess has not changed her nature. She is so evil that she actually gave us garbage?"
The girl opened the oil paper package and was stunned when she saw that it was a meat-filled pancake.
However, when he put his fingers inside, he found that there was not only food, but also two packets of powder at the bottom.
She knew a little bit about medicine. She sniffed the powder under her nose and her eyes suddenly widened.
It is a ginseng powder specially supplied to the imperial palace in the past. It can invigorate blood circulation and has miraculous life-saving effects.
The girl turned around quickly: "Help Grandfather up."
The people around were dissatisfied: "Second Miss, this is something given by the eldest princess, how can you give it to the master? This meat doesn't smell right."
"No matter who gave it to me, as long as it can fill my grandfather's stomach, it's good enough, even if it's rotten and smelly."
She is the legitimate daughter, so her words carry weight, and the rest of the family can only cooperate silently.
The meat in the pancake was not easy to swallow, especially for an unconscious person.
The girl then mixed the minced meat with the medicine powder and stuffed it into the old man's mouth little by little, hoping that the medicine powder would be dissolved by a little saliva.
Xiang Qianqian had been keeping an eye on this side since Xiang Ying took the initiative to approach us just now.
After hearing what the girl said and knowing that the meat was rotten, she combed her tangled hair with her hands and sneered.
"My elder sister used her body to exchange for things, but she didn't get anything good in return. She also lost her dignity. I really don't know what the point is."
The girl heard this but said nothing, but her opinion of Xiangying changed.
If people around knew that there was medicinal powder in the meat, it would bring trouble. By doing this, the princess became the bad person, but she actually helped them.
It turns out that the eldest princess's seemingly bad behavior actually has good intentions.
Over there, Xiangying returned to Taoxue and the children, and Xiang Xiuxiu was jumping around.
"Brother, I feel like I'm stepping on clouds, so light."
Xiang Yuanxiao had obviously guessed what was going on. He grabbed his sister and covered her mouth.
"Don't jump, be careful not to be seen by them."
Xiang Xiuxiu immediately became obedient.
The exile team was lined up in an orderly manner, the sun was shining brightly in the sky, and the soldiers were about to whip them to urge them on their way when they suddenly heard the sound of horse hooves behind them.
"The deputy general has given the order! The deputy general has given the order!" The South Vietnamese cavalry on horseback came galloping all the way with their flags held high. People exclaimed and hurriedly made way.
Tao Xue became nervous and surrounded Xiangying, her face pale.
"Have they changed their minds in Nanyue and are planning to have the military supervisors execute us on the spot?"
When she said that, the three children became a little scared and subconsciously moved closer to Xiangying.
Everyone around had a bad feeling, and some of the timid ones had already started crying.
Soon, there was a noise ahead, as if someone was arguing, but it became quiet after a while.
Xiangying narrowed his eyes, holding a newly taken crossbow in his sleeve.
If Nanyue really changed its mind, she would fight her way out and take the children on the journey alone.
A moment later, Yellow Beard came with a large number of soldiers, cursing.
"Damn it, you never thought of me when good things happened, but I always had to do some hard work!"
"Captain, calm down. He is the crown prince of the Western Zhou Dynasty. The military supervisors decided to let you escort him because they value your ability."
"Bullshit! It's just because I don't give enough filial piety!" The yellow-bearded man strode over with a gloomy face.
When passing by Xiangying, he suddenly changed his expression and gave her a quick, flattering smile, then walked away quickly.
Looking at their backs, Xiangying frowned.
The prince of the Western Zhou Dynasty? According to the original novel, he was her biological brother from the same mother.
Tao Xue's voice trembled beside him: "I heard that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was exiled alone with the generals and heavily escorted, but now he is being sent to our exile team. Could it be that... His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is dying?"
It's another day of begging for votes, standing on the hillside calling for love~~Votes come, votes come from all directions~
