Chapter 39 What kind of medicine did you drink today?
Chen Tingting's expression instantly turned ferocious.
Until Yun Zhao said softly: "You misunderstood."
Chen Tingting paused and looked at Yun Zhao coldly. She no longer had the naive and innocent look she had in front of Xie Jingmo in the past.
Yun Zhao was not surprised at all.
She said softly, "I will leave."
Chen Tingting paused, "What do you mean?"
"I am only following orders to make health pills for the Queen Mother. After the task is completed, I will leave."
Chen Tingting didn't believe it.
How could Yun Zhao be willing to give up such a good person like Xie Jingmo?
"You're not lying to me, are you?"
Yun Zhao shook his head. "Five days is the limit. After five days, I will definitely leave."
Chen Tingting lowered her eyes, then looked up at Yun Zhao in confusion.
"Why?"
"Don't you want to be a general's wife?"
“I don’t believe it.
"In this world, no one would not want to be a general's wife, and no one would not want to marry Xie Jingmo."
After hearing this, Yun Zhao nodded.
"Yes, there is no one in this world who doesn't like Xie Jingmo, but I don't have another seven years."
Yun Zhao's eyes were sincere.
She fully understood Chen Tingting's anger and unwillingness, as she had experienced them too.
pity--
"I hope to marry a good man. We are each other's only one, with no difference in status. I can lean on him with peace of mind, instead of hiding my love in secret. Miss Chen, in fact, the moment I was exchanged for my armor, I gave up my unrealistic fantasies."
"Also, I, Yun Zhao, may be of low status, but I will never be someone's concubine."
"Miss Chen, you can rest assured."
Chen Tingting stared at Yun Zhao blankly.
At that moment, she suddenly felt that Yun Zhao was indeed different from ordinary women.
"You...are willing to give it up?"
"Although I'm a concubine, I'll have plenty of food and clothing. If you marry a farmer and live a life of meager living, are you willing to accept that?"
Yun Zhao smiled again, a faint smile. "I have hands and a skill. I am Yun Zhao, the Yun Army Doctor. I can support myself and do well. Why should I rely on others?"
"I'm naturally tough and can't do the work of serving others."
Chen Tingting looked at Yun Zhao, she was a little envious and a little jealous.
However, this emotion was quickly replaced by the upbringing of a woman in a secluded courtyard. "Okay, since you said so, I'll give you five days. After five days, you leave immediately!"
After Chen Tingting finished speaking, she turned to Doctor Gao and said, "You must cooperate with Doctor Yunyun and complete the task assigned by the Queen Mother within five days."
Doctor Gao bent down and said, "Yes."
After Chen Tingting left, Yun Zhao glanced at the elderly military doctor Gao and said, "There's a bed nearby. You should go and rest for a while. You must be exhausted from the journey from Beijing. I'll be fine tonight, so you can sleep peacefully."
Doctor Gao's lips moved in the candlelight.
Yun Zhao had already closed his eyes and fell asleep.
The next day.
When Xie Jingmo arrived, Yun Zhao had already gotten up from the bed.
Xie Jingmo took the Chinese medicine from Doctor Gao and handed it to Yun Zhao, "Drink it."
Chen Tingting stood aside and suddenly felt a little nervous.
She was very afraid that Yun Zhao would find out something.
Yun Zhao didn't even pause as he took the medicine and drank it all in one gulp.
Doctor Gao, standing by, looked at Yun Zhao with confusion in his cloudy eyes.
Chen Tingting breathed a sigh of relief, and then smiled softly.
Xie Jingmo saw all this and frowned.
He turned around and looked at Chen Tingting with a serious look, "What are you laughing at?"
Chen Tingting's eyes widened in shock. "No... no."
Xie Jingmo frowned and glanced at the medicine in front of him. He looked straight at Yun Zhao and asked, "What medicine is this?"
Yun Zhao met Xie Jingmo's gaze calmly, "Cold-repelling medicine."
Xie Jingmo paused for a moment after hearing this, then turned to look at Doctor Gao, "Is it really a cold-relieving medicine?"
Yun Zhao and Military Doctor Gao were the only two people in the army who knew medicine, so even if Xie Jingmo had doubts, he couldn't say anything.
Before Xie Jingmo walked out of the tent, he looked at Yun Zhao deeply.
Then, he walked out.
Xie Jingmo went to the pharmacy, took the medicine residue and gave it to Yunmeng.
When Yunmeng heard that there was something wrong with the medicine, she immediately went out to find a doctor to check the residue!
Only Yun Zhao and Military Doctor Gao were left in the tent making pills.
Military Doctor Gao bowed deeply to Yun Zhao.
Yun Zhao helped the old man, who was about the same age as his grandfather, up and said, "Why are you so polite? You helped me make the pills, so I should be thanking you."
Doctor Gao's eyes suddenly turned red.
"I know, you found out."
As soon as Doctor Gao said this, Yun Zhao smiled softly.
"I know. You found out the first night you woke up."
"You have calluses on your hands, which are something only experienced Chinese medicine practitioners have. But you're so young, and you already have calluses from taking pulses. Although they're superficial, I can tell you're a studious child. You must have saved many lives."
"The general suspected me today, but you didn't expose him and even drank the medicine. I feel so guilty towards you."
Yun Zhao smiled lightly, "I drank it voluntarily, it has nothing to do with you."
Doctor Gao burst into tears. "But didn't you say last night that you wanted to get married and have children? Now that you've taken this medicine, your body has been damaged. I'm afraid you won't be able to have children in this lifetime. This is all my fault! I'm so sorry!"
Doctor Gao said that he would kneel down to Yun Zhao.
Yun Zhao helped the old man up and said softly, "I did say that, but who would truly love me if I lost my virginity? Besides, I might never love anyone again. So, for me, whether I can get pregnant or not is actually the same. Besides, I'm very happy to have saved your family."
Yun Zhao understood that an old man of this age was still living in the bitter cold of the frontier.
The family must have been coerced, so they came all the way here.
Doctor Gao looked at Yun Zhao, who was about the same age as his granddaughter, with pity. With red eyes, he asked, "You are still so young. You will meet many people in the future. You will meet someone you like. Child, you have a good heart. There will definitely be someone to protect you in the future."
Yun Zhao didn't care much whether there was anyone protecting him or not.
She just hoped to finish making these health pills as soon as possible and leave.
She is a person who keeps her promises. She lost to the Lord of Lincheng for seven years.
That's seven years.
Not a single day less, and she will never have any more extravagant hopes for Xie Jingmo.
Battalion Commander Neigao, a military doctor, quietly discussed pharmacology with Yun Zhao.
Suddenly a cold wind blew outside the door.
A tall figure landed in front of the two men.
Yun Zhao raised his head and saw Xie Jingmo with a gloomy face.
"Come out with me!"
Yun Zhao probably knew why Xie Jingmo asked her to go out. As she walked out, Doctor Gao reminded her to put on her coat.
But Yunzhao had already walked out.
The night outside is very cool.
Yun Zhao was only wearing a very thin military uniform. She stood under the moonlight, neither humble nor arrogant.
"I wonder what the general wants me to do?"
Xie Jingmo turned his back to Yun Zhao, his voice tinged with restrained anger, "Let me ask you! What kind of medicine did you drink today?!"
