Chapter 116 We Surrender
"Girl, what do you want me to do?"
"I want to go to the palace to pay my respects to the Queen Mother!"
Meixiang guessed that the girl was concerned about Bai Qinghuan.
"Miss, you just woke up. I have one more thing I haven't had time to tell you."
"What is it?"
"Yesterday, Bai Qinghuan was summoned to the palace by the Queen Mother. It is said that she was punished by the Queen Mother to kneel in the snow for half an hour. Then His Majesty took her away and she stayed in the imperial study for a long time. Today, the imperial decree to make her the county lady was issued."
"Your Majesty, have you taken the person away from the Queen Mother?"
Doesn’t Your Majesty place the utmost importance on filial piety? Why disobey the Queen Mother?
In other words, as long as they are in the palace, His Majesty will not allow the Queen Mother to embarrass Bai Qinghuan.
hateful!
"Have you been in the imperial study for a long time?"
What exactly happened?
Could it be that she seduced His Majesty?
Bai Qinghuan will stop at nothing to marry into the royal family!
If you can’t marry the third prince, then marry the emperor?
His Majesty is greater than Bai Qinghuan’s father.
She was quite disdainful in her heart, just a woman who only loved power!
Although she was disdainful in her heart, if she entered the palace, wouldn't she have to compete with her sister for favor?
Bai Qinghuan has a charming face. What will my sister do if she steals the favor of His Majesty?
cannot!
She couldn't give Bai Qinghuan the chance to enter the harem.
Meixiang saw that the girl was in a heavy mood and advised:
"Girl, you are still injured, you should take good care of yourself."
She had just gotten off the carriage and although she hit her head and passed out, she rolled into a snow pit and did not suffer any injuries.
When you wake up, everything will be fine.
There was a real hole in the girl's head.
Yun Yuyan gently stroked her wound:
"You're right. I won't go to the palace to avoid passing my illness to the Queen Mother."
"Come closer to my ear."
Meixiang lowered her head.
"You are like this..."
The vicious look in his eyes could no longer be hidden.
Bai Qinghuan, I won't let you have an easy time.
County lady? I will take off your title sooner or later.
The other officials' residences, especially those with sick families, also became more concerned.
Bai Qinghuan can come up with a prescription that is better than the one from the Imperial Medical Bureau, which shows that his medical skills are quite good.
No matter whether it's her or the person behind her, as long as they have medical skills and can cure diseases, it's fine.
So they handed in visiting cards one after another, and Hehuanyuan received a basketful of them.
Bai Qinghuan was a little confused for a moment. Are these people so enthusiastic?
There are even posts from the Princess of Qingping County.
"Biyun, have you heard that Princess Qingping is ill?"
Biyun shook her head: "That's not the case, but I heard that the old lady of the Prince of Qingping's mansion has been bedridden for more than a year."
Bai Qinghuan understood, and thought that he was probably desperate and was trying anything possible.
Pearl didn't take those people seriously. Nothing was more important than the girl's injury.
"Girl, you should just rest and recover. We can talk about anything later."
"Well, I'll just sit on the bed. Bring me a small table and I'll start replying to the messages."
It's not good to ignore them all.
She's just been conferred the title of county lady, but she's already putting on airs, which is not good for her reputation.
She was very confident in her medical skills in theory, but in her previous life, she had never tried it on anyone else except giving herself acupuncture and prescribing medicine.
I still feel a little uncertain.
But she is knowledgeable and can still give them some advice.
So the reply to everyone was the same, that is, her Rong'an Hall would open in the next two days.
If anyone needs ready-made ointment, you can go and support us.
There is not only frostbite ointment, but also many other types, such as those for treating skin ringworm and gynecological diseases.
For those whose symptoms are not included in these, she will also see patients for five days, and they can then allow them to see the doctor.
Zi Yan was worried: "Miss, your foot injury hasn't healed yet."
"Nothing, Pearl can just carry me there. It won't take much effort for me to see a doctor."
......
Mengbai Mountain
There has been continuous heavy snow in the past few days. At the entrance of the valley, Chi Ming has received supplies of food, fodder and clothing from the court. Every day at the entrance of the valley, he either stews meat or cooks porridge. The soldiers live a very comfortable life.
They set up tents, ate meat, drank soup, and lived a happy life.
The private soldiers in the valley were almost starving to death, especially because they were almost tortured to death by the fragrance wafting from the valley entrance every day.
The supplies were all outside, and the tents and other items were being used by the Regent's army.
The continuous heavy snow made it impossible for them to lift their frozen weapons.
All the dry grass under the ice and snow was dug out and eaten, even the grass roots were not spared.
But there are 100,000 people, and grass roots and tree bark are not enough to eat.
At this moment, there was no warmth on their bodies. Many of them sat there and never got up again, becoming real snowmen.
You can imagine how devastated he was.
"Ah...I can't stand it anymore."
"Let me out, I want to surrender!"
"I want to surrender!"
"I want to eat."
The voices of surrender became more and more numerous and louder, and for a time, everyone in the valley was in panic.
Han Nuo was also frozen stiff, but he still raised his spear and picked out a few soldiers who wanted to surrender.
Just these few movements caused the base of his palm to crack, the skin and flesh torn apart, and quickly froze.
The pain was piercing, but he couldn't let anyone see it.
He looked at the soldiers rushing towards the valley entrance with ferocious eyes:
"Anyone who wants to surrender will be killed without mercy!"
"I'd rather die than surrender!"
"Reinforcements will be here soon. As long as we hold on, we will survive. We will have delicious food and drinks. I guarantee you will have enough to eat."
The steaming red blood spread on the snow. The private soldiers were terrified and their voices became weaker. Maybe they could hold on a little longer?
Maybe reinforcements will arrive the next moment?
However, the day was almost over and the reinforcements still did not arrive.
It was soon getting dark and they could hold out no longer.
If you stay any longer, you will surely die.
"I want to eat, I surrender!"
“I want to eat!”
"I want porridge!"
...
The voices rose and fell, and finally merged into two words: Surrender!
When Deputy General Tao at the valley entrance heard this, he burst into laughter.
"My Lord, it's done. Do you want to surrender now?"
Chi Ming stood on a high place and glanced into the valley: "No hurry, wait a little longer."
"yes."
In the valley, soldiers crowded towards the valley entrance, totally ignoring Han Nuo's words of killing without mercy.
Han Nuo was so angry that he spat out a mouthful of blood, melting the ice and snow into blood water, which soon solidified into ice again.
He gritted his teeth and shouted:
"Are you going to rebel? Come back here!"
“Kill without mercy!”
But no matter how loudly he shouted, his voice was completely drowned out by the voices of the soldiers.
He himself was so cold that he could not move, and could only watch as the soldiers knelt at the entrance of the valley and begged for mercy for a bite of food.
"You are all traitors!"
"You all deserve to die!"
He wanted to pick up his spear and kill them all, but he had trouble even standing, let alone killing people.
When some soldiers at the back heard this, they were afraid that the regent would not accept their surrender, so they quickly tied Han Nuo up and kicked him to the front of the valley.
Han Nuo was already at the end of his strength, and after being kicked countless times, he could no longer hold on and fainted.
Chi Ming felt that the time was about right, so he asked Lieutenant General Tao to prepare for surrender.
