"Shizi Concubine, the last general has never found it in the city... that Yuzhuling..."
In the hall, Xiaowei Lu swallowed his saliva and clasped his fists with difficulty to report.
Although he really wanted to ask Princess Concubine if there were any other herbs that could be used instead, he still didn't dare to say it. Cold sweat dripped from the corner of his forehead, and he felt the temperature around him suddenly drop.
There was a moment of silence in the hall, Xiao Yi was displeased and narrowed his eyes. This Xiye is indeed a land of barbarians, there is nothing to ask for!
"Ah Yue..." Xiao Yi looked at Nangong Yue inquiringly.
Nangong Yue frowned slightly, feeling a little disappointed in her heart.
In Dayu, although these two herbs are rare, they are not uncommon. She did not expect to find even one in Xiye.
But for this recipe, Yuanzifu or Yuzhuling are almost indispensable.
"Ayi, the prescription I prescribed is very powerful," Nangong Yue said hesitantly, "Young Master Guan's body is weaker than ordinary people, and this Yuanzifu and Yuzhuling are used to protect the heart veins... I am worried that if there is a lack of medicine, the official son may not be able to stand the effect of the medicine, and things will backfire.
There was a suffocating and dignified atmosphere in the air, which was so oppressive that people couldn't breathe. Xiaowei Lu's back was already wet with sweat. Just as he was about to look up at the expression of the eldest son, Xiao Yi had already spoken.
"Lieutenant Lu, pass on my son's order to send five hundred soldiers to the surrounding towns to search for medicine!" Xiao Yi ordered decisively.
"Yes, Master." Lu Xiaowei hurriedly took the order and left, wishing he could grow a pair of wings.
It's about An Yihou, this matter is urgent!
Following Xiao Yi's order, there was another layer of turmoil in Emerald City. The five hundred Southern Border Army cavalry gathered well-trained at the gate of the Garrison Mansion, and then the troops were divided into two groups. People and horses came out from the east and west gates respectively, and scattered towards the surrounding towns...
Some aristocratic families in the city are secretly observing every move of the garrison mansion. When the prince and concubine of Zhennan entered the city, they had already got the news, and they were hesitating whether to try to show their favor to the prince. The son of the world sent people to search for medicine, and there was a commotion immediately...
In the past two days, the news that the head of the Nu tribe received the three cities that originally belonged to the Bianliang tribe has gradually spread in Xiye. What a great opportunity!
But…
"Is there no Yuanzifu and Yuzhuling?" An old man with gray hair asked eagerly in a big house.
The middle-aged man below wiped his sweat and replied: "Patriarch, I asked the doctor about it, and the doctor said that Yuanzifu and Yuzhuling are delicate in nature, and they can be produced in the southeast of my west night." It is not a problem to get a dozen or so plants in previous years, but this spring it is rainy in the southeast, and the Yuanzifu and Yuzhuling are flooded... "
The Patriarch frowned, and murmured unwillingly: "Should I give up such a good opportunity like this?"
But even if they send people to Dayu now, it may be too late!
The head of the family held the handrail firmly, and couldn't help asking: "Is there no medicinal material with similar effects to Yuanzi Fu and Polygonatum Polygonatum?"
After thinking about it for a while, the middle-aged man replied: "Patriarch, the doctor said that Yuanzifu and Yuzhuling are top-grade tonic medicines, and there are two precious thousand-year-old ginseng in the warehouse..."
"Why didn't you say it earlier!" The head of the family was overjoyed, and immediately ordered his servants to prepare invitations and generous gifts, and hurried to the defense mansion.
Of course, he was not the only one who had this idea. All kinds of rare and elixir medicines, such as thousand-year-old ginseng, thousand-year-old snow lotus, and thousand-year-old Polygonum cloud, were continuously sent to the defense mansion like flowing water, which was very lively.
However, there was no Yuanzifu or Yuzhuling among them. At noon the next day, the soldiers who went out of the city to search for medicine also returned one after another, but they found nothing.
And Guan Yubai has had a fever again since last night, his body temperature is getting higher and higher, and he hasn't woken up until now, only hearing the constant raving in his mouth, as if he has fallen into an endless nightmare …
This time the attack was fierce, even though everyone used various means to help him cool down, such as cold compresses, wiping his body with spirits, antipyretic decoctions, acupuncture...but he still had a high fever...
Nangong Yue knew in her heart that she had to take action!
She sat by the window, stared at the few prescriptions in her hand for a long time, and revised them again and again.
She has already pondered two or three prescriptions, trying to modify the properties of the medicine to be milder, but she is also worried that the corpse poison in Guan Yubai's medicine is already deep, and changing the properties of the medicine may be self-defeating...
In the previous life, the official language Bai Ying died young, and in this life, I must not let him repeat the same mistakes...
Otherwise, the way of heaven would be unfair!
Nangong Yue's eyes were slightly sour, and many things from her previous life flashed before her eyes.
She raised her left hand and rubbed between her eyebrows, and suddenly felt that her right hand holding the pen was empty.
Xiao Yi did not know when he came to her side, stared at her fixedly, holding Nangong Yue's wolf hair in his left hand, and took a look at the prescriptions written by her in his right hand...
He couldn't understand the prescriptions, the ingredients and properties of the medicines, but he could see that the prescriptions that Nangong Yue had just written had been altered and changed. What was changed was the dosage of the medicines, and they were numbers.
Ah Yue is trying to reduce the medicinal properties of the prescription.
Xiao Yi's mind immediately echoed Nangong Yue's words yesterday about the strong medicinal properties of the prescription, and he was thoughtful.
A sharp light flashed in Xiao Yi's peach blossom eyes, and he said decisively: "Ah Yue, use your original prescription." Even if a medicine is missing.
"Xiaobai, he'll be fine!" Xiao Yi took Nangong Yue's hand and looked at her with a smile, "He's going to take the official wife to reunite with the official general!"
He knew that if it was him, he would definitely make the same choice.
Although he and Xiaobai have very different personalities, they are not people who will accept their fate!
Nangong Yue stared blankly at Xiao Yi, and gradually her eyes became firmer.
That's right, she cared too much about her previous life, so she became a little bit demonic!
"Ayi, you are right..." Nangong Yue finally made up her mind.
Guan Yubai finally got to where he is now, and he still has concerns, he will be fine!
"Baihui," Nangong Yue looked at Baihui who had been waiting for a long time, and asked, "Didn't you send a lot of rare and elixir today? Do you have a list?"
Baihui hurriedly presented the list of gifts from each family. After Nangongyue looked at it, she quickly selected several medicinal materials from them, and prescribed a prescription for nourishing blood and Qi, and asked Baihui to boil the medicine...
Although she planned to take risks, she had to make some preparations in advance.
The decoction was ready after half an hour. One bowl was a nourishing decoction, and the other was a decoction for treating corpse poison. The former was sent to Guan Yubai's bedside, while the latter was temporarily warmed and put aside.
After Nangong Yue checked Guan Yubai's pulse, she signaled Baihui to pour the bowl of tonic into the unconscious Guan Yubai first.
After a cup of tea, she checked Guan Yubai's pulse again, and almost every tea time, she checked his pulse again and again... until she confirmed that the time had come, she ordered Baihui to feed Guan Yubai Down another bowl of medicine...
This bowl is the key.
This night is destined to be a sleepless night.
After Guan Yubai took the second bowl of decoction, his breath gradually calmed down... After a stick of incense, his condition suddenly took a turn for the worse, and his fever suddenly became worse, and his pulse weakened and his breathing slowed down almost insignificant...
Nangong Yue performed acupuncture for him again. After being busy for nearly an hour, Guan Yubai calmed down, and her breathing and pulse condition stabilized...
Nangong Yue wiped off her sweat and retreated tiredly to the back, letting Baihui take care of Guan Yubai, only to find Si Lin standing behind at some point, looking at her with somewhat complicated eyes.
"Concubine Shizi, Yubai will hold on..." Si Lin said slowly, and while speaking, looked at Guan Yubai who was on the bed.
Nangong Yue didn't say anything, just smiled.
She also felt that Guan Yubai would definitely get better!
The night was silent, cold, and long... It was not until dawn that everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
"Concubine Shizi, the young master has not had a fever for two hours..." Xiaosi looked at Nangong Yue expectantly, wondering if the young master is all right.
Nangong Yue took Guan Yubai's pulse again, and then carefully bled his finger. Seeing the bright red blood dripping from his fingertips, she finally had a smile in her eyes.
"The disease is under control."
Everything is difficult at the beginning, this first step in controlling the corpse poison is considered a success!
Guan Yubai finally woke up at noon. When he opened his eyes, he saw the strange bed curtain above him. He didn't know where he was, so he blinked blankly. His eyes moved slightly to the right, and he found that Feng Xing was lying on the side of the couch, seemingly asleep.
Behind Feng Xing, a white eagle was parked on the table a few feet away, its ice blue eagle eyes stared at him without blinking, as if saying, why are you still sleeping
Guan Yubai couldn't help but curl his lips slightly. Although his body was still weak, there was a voice in his heart telling him that he came back from the gate of hell again!
At this moment, there was a sound of raising the curtain, and Xiao Si came in holding a copper basin, froze in his steps, and blurted out: "My lord!"
The sound of "Young Master" woke up Feng Xing who was beside the couch, he straightened up suddenly, and looked at Guan Yubai in surprise: "Young Master, you're awake!"
In exchange for Fengxing's words, Xiaosi rolled his eyes, as if he was questioning him, you don't even know that the young master is awake!
Feng Xing rubbed his nose dejectedly, he also squinted his eyes for a while to see that the young master hadn't had a fever for almost four hours.
Seeing that Guan Yubai was about to get up, Feng Xing hurriedly helped him sit up, and asked courteously: "My lord, do you want some water?" Judging by his appearance, he clearly wanted to divert his attention.
Guan Yubai had "sleeped" for more than a day and a night, and his mouth was indeed dry, so he took the tea from Fengxing...
The next moment, he saw the teacup slip from his slender fingers, and fell to the ground beside the bed with a "boom", the tiles and tea splashed.
Xiaosi's face changed drastically, and he said: "Fengxing, take care of the young master, I will go find the concubine Shizi!"
Guan Yu's white eyes drooped slightly, staring blankly at his right hand...
Feng Xing stood silently for a long time.
A while later, Nangong Yue, Xiao Yi, and Si Lin followed Xiaosi after hearing the news, and Feng Xing gave Nangong Yue a little scorpion, "Concubine Shizi, sit down!"
After Nangong Yue sat down, she couldn't count how many times she felt the pulse of Guan Yubai, her face sank like water...
After a while, she withdrew her hand, pointed to another celadon teacup on the bedside table and said to Guan Yubai: "Master Guan, can you try to pick up that teacup with your right hand?"
"Let me try..." Guan Yubai slowly raised his right hand and grabbed the celadon teacup. Ruyu's fingertips formed a sharp contrast with the celadon. The porcelain cup just left the bedside table and fell back with a "click".
Guan Yubai's right hand couldn't use his strength anymore! Everyone else in the room realized this at this moment, and their hearts sank suddenly.
"Concubine Shizi, the master's hand..." Xiaosi looked at Nangong Yue anxiously.
Nangong Yue's complexion became more serious, she looked at Guan Yubai seriously, and said, "Young Master, although the corpse poison in you has been cleared up to seven or eighty-eight for the time being, the corpse poison invaded from the wound on the right hand of the Young Master. It's been a long time, so this right hand will... "It will be useless!
After a pause, Nangong Yue continued: "Now you can only wait for your body to recuperate first, and then prescribe another prescription, and you will recover slowly."
But Nangong Yue is not sure or guaranteed to what extent it can be raised.
The room was silent for a moment, and before Guan Yubai could speak, Xiao Yi said, "Xiao Bai, follow us back to southern Xinjiang!" Thinking of looking for medicine in Emerald City, Xiao Yi frowned. Suo, with a decisive attitude, "Xiye is a barbaric place, there is neither medicine nor good doctors!"
Nangong Yue also nodded and said: "A Yi is right, it happens that my grandfather is in Luoyue City, so I can let my grandfather come and have a look, and I will definitely keep the hand of the official."
This time, Si Lin, Xiao Si and Feng Xing also took the same stand as Xiao Yi.
To them, even if they lost the whole of Xiye, it was not as important as Guan Yubai's body!
Guan Yubai was taken aback, wanting to say that Xiye is still waiting to be done...
But Xiao Yi seemed to see what Guan Yubai was going to say, and said without hesitation: "Just let Xiaohezi come!" Anyway, it will not be a short while to clean up Xiye.
On this day, although Guan Yubai was out of danger, the shadow over the Garrison Mansion and even the entire Emerald City has grown stronger!
In the next three days, Guan Yubai's body slowly recovered, but his right hand was still unable to exert strength. On May 25th, everyone left Emerald City and returned to West Night Capital.
The return trip was a lot more leisurely, but even so, Nangong Yue was still exhausted, and then fell asleep in the carriage. She slept very deeply. She didn't know when she arrived in the capital, and she didn't know how she was trapped. Xiao Yi hugged her into Jiyun Palace... I don't know that little Xiao Yu came to see her, I didn't know that the little guy kissed and kissed her cheek affectionately, and obediently didn't disturb her, but he was still hugged by Xiao Yi who woke up from sleep. Hug out of the inner room...
Although he had only slept for more than two hours, Xiao Yi had already recovered. Not wanting this brat to disturb his mother's sleep, Xiao Yi simply took the little guy to the imperial study to deal with the long-piling business...
Until the night was about to fall, Xiao Yi took Xiao Xiaoyu to Qingfeng Palace to visit Guan Yubai again.
As soon as he entered the hall, he could smell the strong smell of medicine, the little guy wrinkled his face, twisted his body in Xiao Yi's arms and wanted to run away. He doesn't want to take medicine!
Xiao Yi saw the virtue of this stinky boy, and he knew what he was thinking with his toes. He patted the fat buttocks of the little meatball and said, "Stinky boy, it's not that you are asked to take medicine!"
While speaking, he carried the little guy into the inner room.
The little guy wanted to struggle at first, until he saw his adoptive father sitting by the window holding up a large steaming bowl with his left hand, and the fragrance of medicine was coming from there.
Not for yourself to drink! The little guy was relieved, and looked at his adoptive father with sympathy.
Guan Yubai smiled at the little guy, his smile was as loving as before, it seemed that the weakness in his right hand didn't affect him at all.
Xiao Yi stretched out his finger and flicked the little guy's forehead, put him on the ground, and urged: "Stinky boy, I haven't greeted your adoptive father yet."
"Father..." the little guy yelled obediently, and walked slowly towards Guan Yubai, who was still pale, and looked at the big bowl in Guan Yubai's hand without blinking, and saw that he was almost skinny wrist.
After the foster father finished drinking the soup, the little guy quickly climbed onto his lap... Everyone couldn't help watching his every move.
After Xiao Tuanzi climbed onto Guan Yubai's thigh, he rubbed his head against his chest twice, then nimbly turned over, changed to a lying position, retracted his limbs, and squeezed his two fleshy fists to release his body. In front of her chest, she grinned and made a milky voice:
"Meow-"
There was a moment of silence in the inner room, and suddenly there was a "rusting" sound of swaying branches and leaves outside the window, and a cyan figure fell crookedly from the tree, but he immediately adjusted his posture in mid-air, doing a backflip Finally, both feet landed firmly on the ground.
Feng Xing patted the dust off his body in a bit of embarrassment, and was about to climb back up the tree as if nothing had happened, when he heard a burst of laughter erupting from the inner room:
"Puff haha—"
Xiao Yi bent down and laughed unceremoniously, and Feng Xing, who originally wanted to hold back his laughter, couldn't help laughing too: The little grandson of the Zhennan Palace is too funny!
Baihui glared at Fengxing outside, and hurriedly went to see Xiao Xiaoyu.
The little guy didn't look at others at all, his big black grape-like eyes were looking directly at Guan Yubai, as if he was expecting something.
What should we do at this time? ! Guan Yubai hesitated for a moment, then stretched out his left hand to touch the top of the little guy's jet-black hair.
The little guy smiled in satisfaction, rubbed the top of his head against the palm of his adoptive father, and let out a cute "meow".
In the next moment, Feng Xing, who had finally stopped laughing, let out another burst of laughter, and the originally lifeless Qingfeng Palace suddenly startled a large group of birds because of this crazy laughter, and there was a lively commotion...
At this time, a woman's gentle voice came from the direction of the door curtain, accompanied by the sound of messy footsteps.
"Ayi, Brother Yu..."
Hearing the sound, Xiao Yu immediately changed her posture, quickly climbed down from her adoptive father's lap, and hurriedly ran towards the direction of the sound on her two chubby legs, like a baby swallow returning to its nest.
"mother!"
But before he fell into his mother's arms, he was already picked up by his father.
After sleeping for four or five hours at a stretch, Nangong Yue's spirit recovered a lot, and her jet-black eyes were as bright as cold stars again, shining brightly in the dim light of the inner room.
Nangong Yue smiled slightly at Xiao Yi, then stroked the top of the little guy's hair, her eyes were as gentle as water.
Behind Nangong Yue, Fu Yunhe and Yuan Lingbai followed, Fu Yunhe said with a smile: "Brother, Abo and I came to visit Lord Hou, and happened to meet my sister-in-law outside..."
Looking at Fu Yunhe, Xiao Yi immediately remembered another matter, and said, "Little Hezi, Xiaobai will go back to southern Xinjiang with me in three days, and I will leave the matter here to you."
What? ! Fu Yunhe couldn't believe his ears, was he hallucinating? !
Yuan Lingbai smiled gloatingly, knowing that there was a good show to watch.
"Brother don't!"
After a while, Fu Yunhe finally came to his senses, wrinkled his baby face and yelled, "Master Hou, didn't we agree..." Will he care about internal affairs in the future? !
Fu Yunhe originally wanted to pounce on Guan Yubai to plead for mercy, but Xiao Si stopped him and Guan Yubai.
Xiaosi stared at Fu Yunhe coldly, one hand had already pressed the soft sword wrapped around his waist, Fu Yunhe was cowed all of a sudden, turned around and rushed towards Xiao Yi again.
"Brother!"
Even if Guan Yubai wants to go back to southern Xinjiang to recuperate, the eldest brother can stay and preside over the overall situation, right? !
Xiao Yi was still holding Xiao Yu in his arms, and he kicked Fu Yunhe's right shin bone directly, and said directly with a smile: "Little Hezi, do you still want to be the bridegroom officer this year? !"
The threat in the tone can be said to be beyond words!
Holding his right leg, Fu Yunhe was screaming and jumping, as if he was frozen, and he didn't dare to move anymore! He has no doubt that his elder brother has the ability to delay his marriage from this year to next year... He, he, he is still counting on marrying a wife this year to celebrate the new year!
"Little Crane, be good." Xiao Yi comforted without sincerity, "After finishing the business on Xiye's side, big brother and sister-in-law will 'make up' for you!"
Feng Xing outside almost fell from the tree again, as far as he knew, wasn't the makeup added for the girl's house
Fu Yunhe agreed with sobs, and walked away pitifully with Yuan Lingbai's "support".
For Fu Yunhe in the next two days, time was like lightning. He wished that time would pass more slowly, more slowly... But time does not stop for anyone.
In the blink of an eye, May 30th was the day when Xiao Yi, Nangong Yue, and Guan Yubai and their group set off to leave the capital. When they arrived, Xiao Yi and Nangong Yue traveled lightly, but the motorcade back was huge.
At the end of the convoy is a black lacquered coffin, which is shocking to look at!
