No Worries about Food and Medicine

Chapter 168: Soothing wine

Views:

That day Wei He knelt for a day and a night, and finally fell down. As soon as he touched the ground, he was carried down by the people arranged by Yu Jinnian. He stripped his clothes, inspected the wound and cleaned the wound in one go, and Min Xuefei didn't care about him.

He saw that Wei He's back was wet and red, but now he inspected the wounds, and found that although they looked scary, they were actually just flesh wounds. The warrior's body was strong, and he recovered within a few days after taking medicine. It seems that Min Ji was merciful, otherwise, if he really beat him to death, more than 20 military whips would be enough to kill half his life.

Deputy General Wei knelt in the cold wind, and his fever was severe, so he couldn't get out of bed for the time being.

Even with medicine, the fever may not subside so quickly. Yu Jinnian dipped a towel in spirits, carefully avoiding his injuries, and scrubbed him to cool down. Wei He woke up in a daze, opened his eyes, saw a figure in front of the bed, opened his mouth and called "General", struggling to get up and get out of bed.

Yu Jinnian accompanied two medical officers, one on each side, and pressed the sick patient back to the bed. The wound that had just been bandaged burst open again, and the white gauze was instantly stained red. Yu Jinnian was so angry that he wanted to hit someone.

Wei He fell ill and restless on the couch, his back was full of wounds like fishing nets, and the scar on his arm was even more dangerous, the arrowhead almost got embedded in the bone crevice, and the retreat road was sweated and stained with mud and sand, Yu Jinnianguang I don't know how much time it took to turn on the lamp to clean his wound. However, Wei He didn't appreciate Yu Jinnian's hard work at all, he just refused to lie still on his stomach, and the white gauze that was tied up was changed countless times, as if he didn't know the pain.

The medical officers couldn't keep an eye on him, and they didn't dare to control him, so Yu Jinnian had to come and stare at him personally, gave him an injection, and gave him medicine. Yu Jinnian himself was tired, but he still had a lot of energy. , It's amazingly good physical strength.

Until the moonlit night and the breeze came up, in order to save money, the internal and external candles were extinguished long ago, leaving only a short candle burning quietly at the bedside, with a crackling sound from time to time. Wei He lay face down on the bed, watched the candle stub burn inch by inch, saw a red mark he accidentally scratched on the back of Yu Jinnian's hand when he was struggling during the day - he was so anxious that he couldn't close his eyes.

"We defend the family, we can only fight to the death on the battlefield."

Yu Jinnian woke up suddenly from a nap, and when he heard Wei He's words, he subconsciously responded, "Huh?"

Wei He's eyes turned red: "Our Wei family man can only die in battle! He will never die on the sick bed!" His father was framed by eunuchs, and he was seriously ill and died in jail without even being questioned by the emperor. If he doesn't take revenge, he will be sorry to his ancestors, and to the Wei family who are skilled in martial arts, sincere and loyal. But he remembered his father's words before he left, even if the son of the Wei family died, he would die on the front line of fighting for the country.

Yu Jinnian yawned and nodded: "If you want to die in battle, you have to wait until you can get out of bed."

Wei He pressed half of his face on the pillow, and his back was sore. He saw that Yu Jinnian was so sleepy that his neck was weak, and he was still trying to take care of him, so he couldn't help asking: "Mr. medical?"

"Me?" Yu Jinnian held his chin and smiled, "My father is a doctor, so I am also a doctor."

Wei He didn't know him very well before, but it was because this sentence gave off a sense of kindred spirit. He blinked and took it as a nod: "My father also holds a gun." After decades of holding a gun, he died. In the hands of eunuchs. So he wanted to bring down Zhongling, and asked the emperor to retry his father's injustice.

Yu Jinnian said: "The son inherits his father's career, so you are destined to be a general. In the future, you will expand the territory, defend your family and defend the country. General Wei still has a bright future. Your father has a spirit in the sky, and he must also want to see your achievements. , guard one side."

Yu Jinnian smoothed his clenched fist, and said in a gentle voice, "Heal your wound well, and the future will last forever."

Wei He shrugged his nose: "Officer Yu is really good at talking, and his hands are gentle, no wonder the soldiers in my battalion like to be bandaged by you."

Yu Jinnian: "..."

In the past two years, winter has started early, and the weather has been unusually cold. Last year was fortunately a prosperous year, and this year had a good start, but unexpectedly, natural disasters and man-made disasters accounted for everything. There are droughts and floods above, major epidemics below, and now there are military riots, and there is a look of panic from south to north. At the beginning of Beiyan Pass, General Zhengbei was busy inspecting the frontier and rectifying military affairs in the north, and before he could return to Beijing to receive the reward, the deputy general led his troops south and was ordered to rush to the aid of Zhongling.

Min Ji has been attacking Zhongling for a long time, and there has been a lot of discussion in the court. Sure enough, some people took part in Min Ji's salary but did not share the worries of the king. Feng Jian was also whispering sideways at the inner palace. The eunuch Fusheng was Lian Zhi's own person who stayed in the palace on purpose. Hearing Feng Jian's nonsense, he thought it was a big deal, and immediately rushed to Baota Mountain without making a fuss.

Lian Zhi laughed angrily: "These people don't even know which country they are for. Could it be that they have cooperated with the rebels long ago and forced you to attack Zhongling by force, so that you can send him to death?" , "This group of mud-legged bastards really think that if you follow Feng Jian, you will be rich! They will submit the book, and I will too. Am I not more proficient in this kind of dirty trick of framing and arranging?"

The ink dripped onto the paper, and Min Xuefei held him: "You don't need to dirty your hands for this kind of thing."

Zhongling fell, and the emperor was very anxious. He knew it better than anyone else. After all, Zhongling City was the gate of the Great Xia. Once Yan Chang crossed the river, he would go straight to the Jiangbei Plain. If his sword pointed at Xia Jing, Great Xia would be in danger. The emperor is really big-hearted if he is not in a hurry. He also knew that Jingzhong had long secretly said that they were the Ji Pai Min Party, and there were too many people who couldn't see it. They relied on the favor of the emperor and ran rampant for many years. It was perfectly normal for someone to touch his feet. , No ginseng is strange.

Lian Zhi was very angry, and blurted out: "I am familiar with this matter, it will be perfect, and it will not hinder your reputation. I want to leave a bad name in the history of the left and right, and this officer in charge of the army is just sitting around. Respondents, why not try to respond to them?"

"Yunsheng." Min Xuefei called softly, and pressed his hand, "It's really not necessary. I love you." He was not angry, but looked at Lianzhi's fangs and claws with great interest, as if he was about to go down the mountain to give Mrs. Yazhai was looking for the king of the mountain, he took the pen out of Lian Zhi's hand, and said softly, "Jing Younian's history has only been recorded for a long time, and you are sure that you will be infamous."

"Yun Sheng, I definitely want you to be the first Sigongtai Supervisor to be famous in history."

Hearing his name "Yun Sheng", Lian Zhi froze for a moment, staring at him blankly with peach blossom eyes. When Lian's family was convicted, Lian Yunsheng was only eight years old and hadn't had all his deciduous teeth replaced. When he was fined and confiscated into the palace, he didn't have time to get his name. Later, he was recognized by Feng Jian as his adopted son and changed his name.

No one in this world knows that his real name is Lian Yunsheng, he is the young master of Jianzhou in Gyeongju, and he should have been very famous.

Except for Min Xuefei - he called Yun Sheng affectionately, as if biting Lian Zhi's heart.

"I broke a promise once, and this time I will keep it. You..." Min Xuefei packed up his pen and ink, and when he turned his head, against the misty candle mist, there were stars on the face of the young eunuch. He touched it with his hand, surprised Said, "Why are you... crying?"

After being asked a few words, he couldn't stop, pumping and pumping, as if made of water, Min Xuefei knew how much sentimentality was in his belly, it was like the sparkling rainwater back then, how could it be? It can't be wiped clean.

I had no choice but to hug him to the couch, remembering that Yu Jinnian said that when a person is sick, there are some poisons or bacteria, so he suppressed the urge to kiss him, and coaxed him intimately.

On the second day when Min Xuefei said he wanted to make him famous in history, Lian Zhi used the pretext of collaborating with the enemy to behead two eunuchs who were collaborating with Feng Jian and tipping off the news to Beijing. He wanted to deal with these two people a long time ago. Today, I caught the two of them and didn't return all night, so I happened to find a reason to kill the monkey together. A few who refuted him out loud were also chopped off by him.

The blood flowed from the cracks in the ground to the feet, and it was a hot and thick pool of bright red. Some people have had enough of the hypocrisy of these eunuchs, and they still applaud secretly in their hearts.

It was cold in winter, but it was equally dazzling, illuminating the slightly astonished half of the face of the young general outside the school field from a distance.

Lian Zhi lowered his eyes, others only saw him as indifferent, volatile and violent, but they didn't know that he was stunned by the steaming blood at his feet—a name left in history? He dare not think. But if it can help Min Xuefei to have a smooth official career, soar all the way to the top, and become an extremely human minister, he doesn't mind being a powerful official through the ages.

Quan Huan can see the sky with his hands and eyes, but the pure minister is afraid of his hands and feet. Lian Zhi thinks that he has never been a good person.

Lian Zhi felt it was worth it to get what Min Xuefei said.

The winter sun was dazzling, there was not a cloud in the sky, and the pool of blood on the school field was shining white. Min Xuefei himself is also a person who is passionate about power, far more ambitious than Min Xiang, and once quarreled with Ji Hong about marrying to secure power. Now that he is dressed in plain clothes, seeing Lian Zhi's decision to kill and attack, he finally understands Ji Hong.

He also wanted to keep Lian Zhi away from the officialdom. It would be best to set up a Zhuangzi outside the city. He could just sit and collect the rent in brocade embroidered clothes. He didn't have to worry about anything, let alone worry about waking up the next day with his head still on his neck. , carefree, smooth life.

Min Xuefei walked towards Lianzhi, but there was a burst of dust outside the school grounds. A fast horse galloped towards him, and when it came to the front, it rolled down: "General, the scouts came to report that there was a civil uprising in Huancheng in the south, looting Jiangnan Road confiscated the rebel food supplies to be sent to Zhongling City!"

Yan Chang was robbed

Before he could speak, another fast horse came, with red armor and red tassels, the horse rustled, followed by two hundred guards, and arrived at the gate of the school grounds to stand by. General Hongying got off his horse as neatly as the blizzard in Guanbei. He stood in front of the door and swept around. There were a lot of young officers, the one who looked the most powerful in the audience, but he was still an eunuch wearing a servant's uniform , I thought it was the supervisor, but I didn't expect to be born quite well, as bright as a peony.

He walked towards the person who looked the most like a general, striding forward with fists in his arms, he rushed to his dantian, and said in a loud voice: "The last general, He Lianzhi, led 30,000 infantrymen and 3,000 fine cavalry from the Northern Army, come and report!"

The man he worshiped had a beard and thick arms. He looked the strongest, but he was actually just a captain. He was stunned by Helian's snarl, and he couldn't explain for a long time. Seeing that he didn't pay attention, Helian thought he didn't hear clearly, and clasped his fist again: "He Lianzhi, deputy general of Zhengbei Army, rate—"

"General Helian, my surname is Min."

He Lianzhi turned his head and saw a white-clothed literati standing under the winter sun, with a clean and elegant face. He was shocked and puzzled at the moment: the imperial court... sent such a powerless white-faced scholar to put down the rebellion

He made up his mind and thought, the general is not afraid of being weak, maybe he is just a display, and there is also the legendary wise and decisive military adviser sitting in charge!

As he spoke, another person was dressed in moon white, with a fleece in his hand, breathing a cloud of wet mist in front of his face, and Shi Shiran floated out like a fairy descending from the earth, and the gray school ground instantly became shaggy. Bright, rainbow light. Helian Zhijiu was in the northern border for a long time, and the people who hung out with him were all rough people who ate dirt and drank sand, and their faces were like knives made of wood rasps, and they hurt their hands even if they touched them.

This man is so white! Helian stared at him straight away.

"Ah Hong! Ji Hong!" A young man chased him out and wrapped the fox cloak in his hand around his shoulders, "You will disappear in a blink of an eye. Put it on quickly, the room is warm, don't be cold when you come out."

"..." He Lianzhi's rosy face instantly collapsed. This, this is the young son of the Ji family, the military advisor of the rebellious army? ... What's going on with this rebellious army? Could it be that whoever is beautiful from top to bottom has the final say? !

Until Wei He recovered from his injuries and was allowed by Yu Jinnian to come out of the hospital room to ventilate, the dejected Helian saw Wei He wrapped in gauze, his eyes lit up, and he rushed forward as if seeing a fellow villager, and held his hand I'm so grateful - it's like meeting someone of the same kind in the camp of the rebellious army!

Wei He was entangled in eating and drinking, and almost thought that this man was sent by Min Ji to watch him. In the end, General Xin Daomin was an upright person, and he would never send someone to watch him go to the toilet. He couldn't bear it anymore, and said to Helian: "General Helian, a certain person is from Gyeonggi. Where is the general from?"

Helian's ancestral home was in Yancheng, and his family lived in Yancheng. It was not until his father's generation that he was entrusted to Beijing. He was regarded as an outsider. Helian patted Wei He's shoulder and hit it off with him: "Not far, not far. "

Military resources were robbed, and Yan Changsheng was so angry that he dropped a golden bowl.

The rice in the south of the Yangtze River is difficult to collect, and the money is even more difficult to collect. Now the forced payment is only enough for the soldiers in Zhongling City to spend a month, but what Yan Chang wants to fight for is this month, as long as he survives this month , the military funds and food from afar from Yuezhou can keep them alive.

But this month, God will not give him!

"Why did a civil uprising happen in Huancheng!" Yan Chang asked, "Where are the soldiers stationed in Huancheng?"

Zhou Feng took two steps back, without opening his mouth, the general who came with him couldn't wait to say: "There is no garrison in Huancheng, and tens of thousands were sent to the thirteen counties in the south to frighten the state capitals, and then they were dispatched back to Yuedi Tens of thousands, to consolidate the coastal defense. This road was bitten by the surnamed Min, and there were countless casualties! Now there are only 30,000 to 40,000 soldiers inside and outside Zhongling, who still remembers Huancheng."

Huancheng is not a big city, but it is located in the land where grain and grass must be transported. Once Huancheng is lost, Yan Chang's way of getting grain from Yuedi will be cut off.

From noon to night, there was no reason why Yan Chang had a headache, so he sent Yu Xu to come and drink.

The small cup of hot wine filled the jade cup with no more and no less. Yan Chang drank it and immediately felt comfortable in his heart and harmonious in his limbs.

Yu Xu squeezed his temples with him, and whispered in his ear: "Your Highness, I want some people. The palace is very deserted, can I go for a walk? See the scenery of Zhongling, let them accompany me around visit."

Yan Chang Xunxun said: "... Who is it?"

Yu Xu laughed cautiously: "It's nothing important, but those who were imprisoned by Director Zhou are all criminals on the left and right. I just pick a few older ones at random, and I can explain clearly. Your Highness ... Just give me a warrant?"

There were so many people in the prison, Yan Chang couldn't remember which ones were locked up for a moment, but he only remembered a few gentry and rich men, he didn't take it seriously, holding a jade wine cup in one hand, tearing off a piece of obscene cloth from his body with the other hand, and using his fingers Stained with the ink that Yu Xu sent, he wrote a few strokes, then leaned on the couch, impatiently rubbing his aching head and neck: "Take it. Bring me some calming wine."

Yu Xu immediately tucked the warrant into his shirt: "Thank you, Your Highness!"
