Chapter 1435 Husband and wife united in heart
Xue Han felt a bitter taste in her mouth. She drank too much medicine and her mouth was tasteless. After drinking the medicine, she worriedly said, "My parents should know about our assassination by now. I don't know if they can bear it."
Rong Chuan hummed, "We are fine, so my parents can rest assured. I am worried about the border."
Xue Han thought about the war and the bitterness in her mouth was gone. "Ah."
The next day, Prince Liang was the one who led the troops. All the officials felt a little complicated for a while. It was expected, but also a little surprising that the Supreme Emperor agreed.
The emperor stood and said, "I will meet you at the city gate when you return victoriously."
He really wanted my younger brother to lead the troops into battle. He was not afraid of my younger brother's military achievements. My younger brother was his biological brother and he was willing to trust him. Moreover, my younger brother always knew what he should and should not do.
My younger brother was seriously injured, so he was thinking about who would be suitable to lead the troops. It was impossible for the King of Qi to do so. He had already asked my younger brother to lead Xu Chen, so it was impossible for the King of Qi to add to his military achievements.
The King of Chu is not suited to lead troops. In fact, the King of Liang is the most suitable. The King of Liang is in poor health. If he leads troops to fight, he will not be well when he returns. Military merit is just a guarantee for the Liang Palace.
King Liang was wearing armor, "I will definitely live up to your expectations."
The emperor called for his generals again. The generals followed the prince of Liang and stood out. The emperor put his hands behind his back and said, "I will wait for you all to return victoriously."
Zhou Shuren was excited. When Wu Chun was fighting, he had no access to the court and had only heard about the war. Now that he was involved, his blood began to flow faster as he followed the generals' shouts.
This feeling can't be felt by watching TV dramas!
The troops were assembled yesterday, and supplies such as food and fodder will be delivered gradually. The army will set out tomorrow.
Li Zhao was very busy. After leaving the court, he couldn't help but ask quietly, "If we go to war on two fronts, there will be enough food and fodder, right?"
He knew that the emperor had prepared food and fodder, but a flood had occurred and food was needed everywhere, so he was really afraid of a food shortage.
Zhou Shuren, "Yeah."
Li Zhao felt relieved. Zhou Shuren's words made him feel at ease. "Then I'll go first."
Zhou Shuren had already mentally simulated how to efficiently ensure logistics. He had already made the arrangements yesterday and was in no hurry to leave.
Wang Ju trotted over and said, "You were too busy yesterday, so I didn't have a chance to talk to you. The King of Qin was assassinated, and the flood in the south will cause chaos. Your third son is in Qizhou, and I don't know what's going on with him."
His son's place was stable, without any floods, and his only worry was this year's grain production. The Zhou family was different, as Zhou Changlian was in Qizhou, where the floods occurred.
Zhou Shuren frowned, "Because it is inconvenient to pass on news of the flood, I don't know the news in Qizhou. Let's wait. If there is really chaos, news will be reported to the capital in a few days."
Wang Ju was worried. The two families were related by marriage, and the Wang family hoped that everything would be well for the Zhou family. Zhou Changlian had come this far, and he couldn't let this happen. "My son is not too far from Qizhou. Do you want me to ask him about it?"
Zhou Shuren waved his hand, "No need."
This is a test for Chang Lian. If he cannot pass this hurdle, it only means that Chang Lian is not capable enough.
In Qizhou, Chang Lian stayed by the prefect's side all night without sleeping, fearing that something bad might happen to him. He noticed the prefect's hand moving and shouted, "Doctor Xu, Doctor."
Doctor Xu was standing guard in the hall. When he heard the noise, he came in and stretched out his hand to feel the patient's pulse. His face lit up with joy, "The prefect is fine."
Chang Lian also smiled, "Okay, okay."
The advantage of the court's control over medical clinics is that when the prefect is poisoned, he can find a doctor who has researched poisons immediately and the treatment can be quick. Even if the poison is severe, the prefect can be saved in time with medicine.
Chang Lian signaled the servant to go home and get the herbs. These were for the doctor as payment for the treatment. The doctor didn't want them, but he wasn't one to be stingy.
Mrs. Dong saw the meaning of the words, "But what happened to the master?"
The news of what happened outside the city yesterday spread throughout the city. She knew that the prefect had been assassinated and her husband was on the city wall comforting the people on behalf of the prefect. She almost fainted and was afraid that something else would happen, so she stayed on guard all night.
Fenmo said, "My Lord, everything is fine. The prefect is fine now. My Lord asked me to come back to get the herbs."
Dong was stunned, "Medicinal herbs?"
Fen Mo said that it was sent to Doctor Xu. Dong was not a drag. She opened the box of medicine and took out the hundred-year-old ginseng without hesitation. She also selected some herbs and said, "Take these back."
Fen Mo was dumbfounded, "Too many."
Dong smiled and said, "It's not much. You can take it with you."
Naturally, she would make friends with a doctor who could detoxify. She was really scared that the prefect was poisoned this time, and for her husband, no amount of sacrifice would be enough.
Chang Lian saw the herbs that Fen Mo brought back and smiled, "Doctor Xu, don't refuse. This is a gift from me."
Doctor Xu had already made up his mind to decline the offer. The prefect was a good person, but he didn't want the money for detoxification, let alone the medicinal herbs. But when he saw the well-preserved century-old ginseng, Doctor Xu could no longer say no.
Chang Lian signaled Fenmo to see Doctor Xu off. He had official business to attend to after Doctor Xu left. Yes, there were also the refugees outside the city. They had finally become well behaved after being hungry for a whole day. They lined up in an orderly manner when food was distributed in the morning and were indeed well fed.
Chang Lian narrowed his eyes. He had to find some people to publicize the reason why the daily food ration was reduced. He said it was all caused by unscrupulous people. He didn't believe that no one would report it.
In the capital, Zhulan was walking in the garden and saw Yuyi sitting in the pavilion, staring at the lake with a frown.
Yuyi came back to her senses when she heard the girl's greeting, "Grandma."
Zhulan saw the green in Yuyi's eyes and asked, "Are you worried about your parents?"
Yuyi nodded, "Yes, I haven't received any letters from my parents for a while, and I am worried."
She now wanted to receive a letter from her parents, but was afraid that it would be bad news. She dared not sleep for fear of having a nightmare.
Zhulan sat down and said, "Grandma is very happy that you can see the danger of Qizhou from the situation."
Yuwen doesn't want to think about the granddaughters in the family, as she has Changzhi's personality. Anwen doesn't want to use her brain, and Yudie can't think of anything. Only Yuyi can see everything.
Yuyi was very anxious, "Grandma, I haven't seen riots, but I have heard of the dangers. Will Dad be safe?"
Zhulan held Yuyi in her arms. The child did not dare to show her worry in front of her sister and brother. Anxiety is contagious. Yuyi was so sensible that it made people feel distressed. "Well, your father has a plan. He will protect your mother and they will be safe."
Yuyi leaned on her grandmother's arms, "Yeah, Dad is awesome."
Zhulan smiled. Yuyi admired her father very much. "Yes, your father is very powerful."
After a while, Yuyi fell asleep. Zhulan held back the old woman's hand. The child felt insecure now and would wake up if moved. It was better for her to sleep peacefully for a while after finally falling asleep.
I motioned Qingxue to get the cloak. The wind in the pavilion was still a little strong. Qingxue came back quickly with a summer cloak in her hand.
Zhulan gestured to put it on Qingxue. Fortunately, it was not too hot in the morning, so Yuyi could have a good sleep.
