Chapter 104 She is the only one holding on
Look at Jiang Qingyue’s carriage, then look at the palace’s.
Even if you don't understand medical knowledge, you can see that the prince is perfunctory.
Jiang Qingyue could still be angry and look cold, but these guards could only be angry but not say anything about what the prince did.
The driver who came to deliver the goods teased Xu Yan, "Guard Xu, it's only been a few days, and you've already found a new master? If the prince knew about this..."
"If the prince were here, I would definitely respect him. But when the prince is not here, Miss Jiang San is the most senior. We all have to listen to her."
The driver's face turned cold, "Xu Yan, do you dare to say this in front of the prince?"
Xu Yan's face also turned cold. "I said, if the prince was here, I would definitely respect him. But now, the prince is not here."
"Even when the prince is not here, you shouldn't be servile to a woman. You must remember that you are the prince's guard and the face of the palace. If the prince knew that you were holding a woman in your arms today..."
Before he could finish his words, Xu Yan grabbed his collar.
"Why, you still want to go back to the palace to file a complaint? Do you think you can return to Yanjing after this trip?"
He threw the driver out and pointed at the people. "Look at those people. They are all infected with the disease to varying degrees. Only Miss Jiang San can save their lives. If you dare to disrespect Miss Jiang San, be careful that you won't even have a bowl of medicine to save your life."
He made a gesture and called a few people to move all the herbs off the carriage.
The driver fell to the ground, listening to the weak groans of seriously ill people in the distance, and felt frightened.
He ran over, threw out the last bit of medicinal herbs in the carriage, and drove towards the city gate.
But who would have thought that when he arrived at the city gate, he was stopped.
He can't go back...
In the tent, Sun Shangqing told Jiang Qingyue what happened in Liuxiang Pavilion yesterday.
When Jiang Qingyue heard that her elder sister had fainted, her heart was in her throat.
"Don't worry, Third Miss. I'll have the doctor from the clinic stay at Liuxiang Pavilion and see you at any time."
Jiang Qingyue finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"If you're just delivering the herbs, Manager Sun, you don't have to come out in person. I heard the city gates will be closed soon, so you'd better go back quickly."
Unexpectedly, Sun Shangqing shook his head.
"I didn't plan to go back when I came out this time."
He told Jiang Qingyue that Jiang Wanyin asked him to buy medicinal herbs from somewhere else. After hearing this, Jiang Qingyue felt a lump in his nose.
These things should have been arranged by Chu Hean, but not only did he not show up, he even did things perfunctorily and used other medicinal herbs to make up the numbers.
Only the eldest sister was truly kind to her and even wanted to use her private property from other places to find medicinal herbs for her.
Sun Shangqing bowed and said, "I will leave immediately. I will come back as soon as I have collected the herbs."
Jiang Qingyue nodded, "Thank you, Manager Sun."
"Miss Third's medical practice is a good deed. If I, Sun, can also help Miss Third, it would be my honor."
Jiang Qingyue sent him out of the tent and watched him drive away before she breathed a sigh of relief.
Yu Xiao said, "The herbs that Manager Sun sent should be enough for a few days. He doesn't need to be so anxious."
Jiang Qingyue shook her head. "If word of the epidemic gets out, other places will rush to buy the herbs. Shopkeeper Sun really needs to act quickly to get us new herbs before these run out."
It took Xie Lingyun and his companions seven or eight days to leave Yanjing, and it would take the same amount of time to return this time.
However, Deputy General Chao was injured and left for half a day earlier.
But who would have thought that after only one day, the person who was taking care of Zhao Cheng came running back.
"General, an epidemic has broken out outside Yanjing City, and the Emperor has ordered the city gates to be closed."
Upon hearing this, the soldiers were all shocked.
Xie Lingyun suddenly tightened the reins in his hands.
"Who is stationed outside the city?"
"Only the third daughter of Lord Jiang, the Minister of Revenue, remains outside the city."
Jiang Qingyue!
Xie Lingyun's eyes darkened.
When they left the city, there were so many victims outside the city, complaining bitterly, but Chu Hean hid himself and let Jiang Qingyue hold on alone?
"General."
The visitor raised his head, his face covered in dust.
"Deputy General Zhao seems unable to hold on any longer."
Xie Lingyun's heart tightened, "How could it be? Didn't he take the medicine?"
"Maybe the injury is too severe..."
no.
If his injuries were just too severe, Zhao Cheng probably wouldn't be able to make it down the mountain.
The only thing that allowed Zhao Cheng to survive until now was Jiang Qingyue's medicine.
Now that the time limit has passed, if Zhao Cheng can't get out of Yanjing City, he is afraid that he will really die.
Xie Lingyun felt inexplicably anxious. He called Cang Yi over, explained a few things to him, and then left.
It only took him half a day to catch up with Zhao Cheng and his men. Seeing Zhao Cheng barely breathing, with half of his body soaked in blood, he felt sorry for his deputy general and regretted his own carelessness in underestimating the enemy.
He jumped on the horse, tied Zhao Cheng to him with a piece of cloth, kicked the horse's belly, and the Ferghana horse immediately rushed out of everyone's sight.
Another three days passed, and there were still enough medicinal herbs, but no food.
The people were complaining bitterly, and someone discovered that the city gates were closed, and the people started to make trouble again.
With Chu Hean gone, Jiang Qingyue is the only one holding on.
But she had been seeing patients non-stop these past few days, and her body was already exhausted, and even her voice had become much hoarser.
Yuxiao wanted to pass on a message for her, but the people were still angry and did not appreciate Yuxiao's kindness at all.
Behind the crowd, the Gentiles exchanged glances.
Suddenly, the people rioted. Xu Yan led people to suppress them, while another person clearly wanted to attack Jiang Qingyue.
"Miss, be careful!"
Yuxiao stood in front of Jiang Qingyue, but the man didn't succeed and turned around and ran away.
Yu Xiao didn't move at all, but Jiang Qingyue whispered instructions behind her.
"Catch him. Don't let anyone else find him."
Yu Xiao said in a deep voice, "Miss, they want to lure me away."
"I know. I'll take this opportunity to catch one first and deal with the rest later."
Yu Xiao nodded, "Then be careful, young lady."
As soon as Yuxiao left, the instigated people became more and more angry and insisted that Jiang Qingyue give an explanation.
But what explanation could Jiang Qingyue give?
"I don't think you have any ability. You are here to delay time and want to outlast us all."
"Yes! Let's tear this bitch apart, and then we'll have meat to eat."
Jiang Qingyue was terrified.
I've heard that people would eat each other during famines, but I didn't expect to see it happen today.
"If I die, there will be no one to cure the plague."
"Don't listen to this woman. The plague hasn't been cured in a few days. She's a liar."
"It's a lie!"
I don't know who started it, but something flew towards us.
Before Jiang Qingyue could dodge, a figure suddenly appeared beside her and embraced her in his arms.
Because he was wearing light armor and had been running for two days, his body was cold and stiff.
In addition to being covered in dust, there was also the choking smell of blood.
Jiang Qingyue looked at what was in front of her and was stunned for a moment.
Is this light combat armor?
The object hit the light armor and fell to the ground. It turned out to be a stone as big as a fist.
Jiang Qingyue raised her head and saw his stern facial features clearly, and her heart suddenly tightened.
Xie Lingyun?
