Chapter 431 What kind of person is he?
The maid scratched her head, realizing she had misunderstood; the lady did not believe that the spirit of a fallen hero could save the general's life.
Lu Qingqing laughed.
Wen Qingyu was truly a clever and insightful woman.
Gu Chengye is so lucky, so very lucky.
She said, "I kneel down, it's the same."
We should do everything we can to save lives, pray fervently, and not rely on ghosts or gods, but rather on reverence.
We have done everything in our power, leaving nothing out, and finally await life's response.
Therefore, now that Lu Qingqing has come to the battlefield, she should also look for that Blood Bone Core!
Maybe it really is!
She had once read an ancient book that mentioned a miraculous medicine that grew from corpses—asafoetida.
There was an unmarried young lady from a wealthy family who was frail and sickly, and had been taking all sorts of rare and precious medicines since childhood.
After death, a dark, fleshy thing grew out of the rotting bones.
This is asafoetida.
It is said to cure all diseases.
But in fact, it is just a fungus similar to Ganoderma lucidum.
The Tang Materia Medica also records a medicinal material called Asafoetida, which is a plant resin used to treat indigestion and intestinal parasitic diseases.
She guessed that if there really was a blood-bone core, it might be some kind of fungus with medicinal effects!
Lu Qingqing stood up.
"Don't worry, Madam. The General is strong-willed and will surely overcome his illness and wake up. It's not advisable for anyone to enter the tent now. Please come in two days to visit him."
"I'll wander around here for a bit first."
Lu Qingqing started circling the grave mound.
The people buried here don't have coffins, so there's no space for fungi to grow. Therefore, you can only look at the ground to see if any strange things sprout up.
Sigh, in the dead of winter, the ground is covered with remnants of snow, and even if there were, they wouldn't grow at this time of year.
But, we're already here!
Wen Qingyu secretly praised Lu Qingqing, saying that although she was young, she was mature and insightful, no wonder the Crown Prince liked her.
“Miss Lu’s medicine can keep the general’s breath going, and it will surely wake him up, right?” she said, seemingly to herself.
"Madam, it will definitely happen. Why don't you stop praying for now and go back to keep watch?"
"I cannot stop halfway; there are still a hundred people to worship. I will finish first."
Wen Qingyu bowed for another half an hour before finishing reciting the remaining hundred names. When she stood up, her legs were frozen stiff.
She saw Lu Qingqing under a tree in the distance, bending down to pick something up, seemingly having found something.
There seemed to be a look of surprise on his face.
Could one really find treasure in this cold, dark place?
Wen Qingyu stretched her legs and walked over with the help of her maid.
As they got closer, they saw Lu Qingqing's hands clasped together. When she opened them, a dark object lay in her palm.
She leaned closer and smelled it, then smelled it again.
Then came an angry curse:
"Damn! Wild boar poop!"
Wen Qingyu: "..."
Did I hear that right?
Where is the miracle doctor?!
She's a sophisticated, insightful woman, unlike any other!
Lu Qingqing waved her hand.
"Damn it! It's frozen stiff, stuck in the grass. It's like a toad pretending to be a three-legged toad, thinking it's a money-devouring beast!"
I held it for ages to thaw it!
"Damn it! There are wild boars here! Tell the army camp that Chun'er will come and catch them!"
Turning her head, she saw Wen Qingyu approaching. At this moment, her eyes were slightly wider, and she didn't look as calm and gentle as before.
"Madam, have you finished your prayers?"
"Yes, I've finished praying. What did the divine healer throw just now?"
"Wild boar droppings, I thought they were medicinal herbs," Lu Qingqing said with some regret.
Even if there really is some kind of blood-bone core, it's impossible to find it so easily!
Why!
The master and servant: "..."
I had heard Chengzhou say that Lu Qingqing had thousands of medicinal herbs on her shelf, dozens of which were excrement. So it's true.
In ancient times, Shennong tasted hundreds of herbs; now, we have the legendary physician Lu…
Uh, it seems wild boar dung can't be used as medicine.
"Let's go back." Lu Qingqing held up all ten fingers.
The maidservant quickly offered her a handkerchief, but Lu Qingqing refused. Instead, she scooped up a handful of snow and rubbed it clean.
"By the way, don't call me the miracle doctor anymore, just call me Qingqing."
“Qingqing.” Wen Qingyu readily agreed.
She immediately added, "Don't call me 'General's Wife' either. My maiden name is Wen Qingyu."
"Sister Wen."
Wen Qingyu smiled for the first time in so many days.
The miracle doctor is truly a straightforward and cheerful girl.
Your Highness has excellent taste.
...
Winter night.
Cold and profound.
The cold wind howled.
The woman, bound in the tent, lay on the ground as if dead.
A shadow slipped in.
"Your Majesty, if you're going to die, don't die in the Western Liao camp. Go back to Daqian and die there."
The people on the ground have been on a hunger strike for two days.
Upon hearing the sound, it finally stirred.
But she didn't say anything.
He hasn't spoken a word since he was thrown in here.
"Take her away!" The boy's voice was chillingly menacing in the darkness.
Two more people came in and first gagged the woman.
"Your Highness, please come with us! It's too risky!" they pleaded.
"Stop talking nonsense and get going!"
The two men didn't dare to delay and carried the woman on their backs.
The shadowy figure, with its back to the camera, whispered:
"Your Majesty, I have repaid your kindness in giving me life."
"We will never meet again in this life."
Shangguan Zhi, who was upside down, opened her eyes wide and desperately turned her head to look, but only saw a blurry dark shadow that blended into the night.
She always regarded this son as a disgrace and a pawn.
Ignore, disregard, manipulate.
I never really looked into what kind of person he was.
What is Ji Canglin up to?
Their journey out was not smooth; they were discovered by patrolling Western Liao soldiers, but the Western Liao army was quickly distracted by the sounds of fighting coming from one corner.
what happened?
what happened?
Shangguan Zhi was eager to know at that moment.
She also longed to see Ji Canglin's face properly one last time.
She remembered that it was a very beautiful face.
Especially those eyes.
However, when he was ten years old, he looked up at her and called her "Mother" in the sunlight, and she saw the amber luster in those eyes.
At that moment, she almost lost control and gouged out those eyes!
Later, she drove him to Ganzhou.
He was also told that he had eyes like a dead cat, which were disgusting, and that he was not allowed to look people in the eye or stand in the sunlight.
Until she begged him to return to the capital.
His temperament was eccentric and capricious, making him even more unpredictable to her.
Ji Canglin is now by the side of the King of Xiliao, yet he still maintains contact with the guards of Daqian. What is going on?
Shangguan Zhi's head was throbbing with pain. Only after she was put down and untied did she ask in a hoarse voice.
The guard coldly replied, "Your Highness is the eldest prince of the Great Khan. What does the Empress say he wants to do?"
Naturally, it's to kill foreign enemies and protect the great cause!
The struggle for the throne, the feud between brothers—shouldn't all be set aside in the face of a foreign enemy?
"No……"
But he isn't...
Shangguan Zhi was stunned.
Did these guards not know his identity...?
"Your Majesty, you should go on your own. His Highness has opened a breach in the Western Liao army camp, and we must go and fight the enemy as well..."
