"Okay." Jing Yi agreed without any hesitation. He glanced at the almost cold ginger soup on the table, "You drink the ginger soup first."
Su Xiaoxiao took a sip of ginger soup and frowned.
"What's wrong?" Jing Yi asked.
Su Xiaoxiao suppressed the sudden discomfort in her stomach, and said: "It's nothing, it's probably because I haven't drank for a long time, I'm not used to it."
When she drank again, the feeling of nausea and retching disappeared again.
She drank the ginger soup in one go, sweated all over, and felt much more comfortable.
Early the next morning, she was woken up by a loud noise, it was the magistrate of Jia County who came over.
This county magistrate, surnamed Yuan, was a Jinshi from two rankings. Because of his outstanding performance, he attracted Xiao Duye's attention, and was personally received by Xiao Duye. Unfortunately, this man was drinking heavily and had only been on duty in the Imperial Academy for a few days. He was reprimanded for coming to a place of bitter cold.
He happened to go to Suibei Pass yesterday on business, and saw two carriages parked beside the official road.
The carriage was not the point, he recognized the long follower who was always by Xiao Duye's side in the First Prince's Mansion.
Chang Sui pretended not to know him, but he was sure that he was right, no, he found the post today.
After Su Xiaoxiao washed and dressed neatly, when she walked out the door, Jing Yi was already waiting in the porch holding a long sword.
"Have you been waiting for a long time?" Su Xiaoxiao asked.
"No, I just came here." Jing Yi said, "There is a situation, the county magistrate of Jia County came over and asked Liang Wang to go to the county government to recuperate."
Su Xiaoxiao said: "The meaning of recuperation is——"
Jing Yi said calmly, "Oh, King Liang is ill."
Xiao Duye was froze in the snow-capped mountains, and he began to feel unwell in the middle of the night. This morning, he even developed a high fever. The county magistrate Yuan came to pay his respects to him. He was frightened to death by his pale face, but he came all the time. He could only bite the bullet and ask Xiao Duye to go to the county government to recuperate.
"Let him go?" Jing Yi asked.
Su Xiaoxiao thought for a while: "Let him go. We are going to buy food and grass in the next few days, and we can't take care of him. Let the county magistrate watch over us and do our best."
At this time, in the next room, Xiao Duye was wrapped in a thick quilt and sat cross-legged on the bed, and said to the county magistrate Yuan in a hoarse voice with a strong nasal sound: "This king is traveling in modest clothes. Expose the identity of the king."
"Yes yes yes!" County Magistrate Yuan responded hastily, "I just said you are a distant relative of mine."
Xiao Duye weakly gave him a cold and harmless look.
Magistrate Yuan lowered his head.
Xiao Duye said: "This king walks as a merchant, you can just call me Boss Xiao."
County Magistrate Yuan hurriedly said, "I obey your orders."
Su Xiaoxiao and Jing Yi came over.
Su Xiaoxiao felt Xiao Duye's pulse.
County Magistrate Yuan looked Su Xiaoxiao up and down: "This is—"
Xiao Duye said calmly: "This king's doctor's daughter is surnamed Qin."
"Miss Qin." County magistrate Yuan cupped his hands and bowed.
The status of a medical girl in Dazhou is low, but as the saying goes, the seventh-rank official in front of the prime minister, and the medical girl of Liang Wang's mansion, she is not something that the county magistrate can neglect.
He looked at Jing Yi at the side again, he didn't have much time in the capital, and he had never seen Lord Jing Xiaohou.
Xiao Duye said again: "The king's guard is named Jing."
Qin and Jing are both famous surnames in the capital.
However, the two should have nothing to do with the Duke Huguo's Mansion and the Marquis of Weiwu's Mansion. Otherwise, how could they be medical girls and guards beside King Liang?
"I'll go out with Jing Yi." Su Xiaoxiao said to Xiao Duye.
Xiao Duye asked vigilantly: "What are you doing?"
Su Xiaoxiao said sternly: "Get medicine for Your Highness."
Xiao Duye snorted: "You have a conscience."
Xiao Duye was taken to the county government office by the magistrate Yuan.
Su Xiaoxiao takes Jing Yi and Fu Su to buy grain and grass.
Jing Yi took out all his belongings, not even a small piece of silver.
Fu Su poor, he has no money.
"These don't seem to be enough." Master Jing Xiaohou had no idea about the price of grain, but he felt that a few hundred taels seemed a little low.
Su Xiaoxiao smiled: "Jing Yi, take back the bank notes and money, and I'll bring the military pay."
Her pharmacy is filled with the gold from the White Lotus Sect and all the belongings embezzled from Zhao Kangning, more than enough to buy food and grass.
She did this not for the imperial court, nor for Emperor Jingxuan, but for a real war, and it was Qin Canglan, Su Mo, and their soldiers who went to the battlefield hungry.
"I'll give it to you." Jing Yi insisted on giving it to her.
Su Xiaoxiao had no choice but to accept it first.
The three bought in Jia County first, and they couldn't buy them all, they had to save some for the common people.
Fusu looked at the sparse five carts of grain and grass: "These are not enough."
Su Xiaoxiao asked: "Which county next door is richer?"
Fu Su let out a cry, and said, "Chong County! There are many caravans stationed there all the year round, some from the Great Zhou Dynasty, and some from the Western Jin Dynasty and Beiyan. We can find the caravans to buy food and grass."
Su Xiaoxiao asked: "How far is Chong County?"
Fusu, like Wei Ting, has the habit of carrying maps with him, he let go and pointed to Su Xiaoxiao: "Go west for a hundred miles."
Su Xiaoxiao made a decisive decision: "Okay, go to the county."
Before leaving, she grabbed a pair of medicines, left a letter to visit Qin Canglan in Zi Town, and asked a pharmacist to send it to the county government.
"Ask Boss Xiao for the medicine money."
She didn't pay Xiao Duye any money.
The three immediately set off for Chong County.
...
Fifty miles east of Suibei Pass was a military camp. At this time, the soldiers were training on the school grounds. Su Mo picked out a few soldiers to fight against him.
Qin Canglan and General Liu watched from the sidelines.
General Liu said with a smile: "General Su's martial arts has improved again. When my subordinates saw him a few years ago, he didn't seem to have such skills."
Qin Canglan has long since resigned from his post in the army, and is no longer the Lord Protector, but Liu Ren still respects him as Grand Marshal in his heart.
Qin Canglan put his hands behind his back, looked at Su Mo and said, "This kid hasn't shown his true skills yet."
"Oh?" Liu Ren was surprised.
Su Mo beat the two soldiers to the ground with a long spear, and then shot back with a carbine, knocking away the attacker behind him with the handle of the gun.
He was sympathetic to his own move, otherwise with those two moves just now, these people would have died long ago, and the generalissimo said he didn't show his true skills?
"What's the situation with the military salaries of the battalions?" Qin Canglan asked.
Liu Ren sighed: "Alas, the military salary has not come down for a long time. The soldiers have great opinions. You must know that most of these soldiers are from poor people. Joining the army is to use their lives in exchange for food and surplus food for their families. But now—"
It was only after Qin Canglan came to the border that he realized that the situation here was worse than he had imagined.
If this continues, the soldiers will have no morale to fight.
"There is one thing I don't know about my subordinates."
"you say."
"Since His Majesty sent the Grand Marshal and General Su to escort the weapons, he must have guessed that there will be a war at the border. Why don't you bring more food and grass?"
Soldiers and horses go first before the food and grass arrive. This is the reason for marching and fighting since ancient times. After all, His Majesty has been emperor for so many years, so it is unlikely that he doesn't even understand this.
Qin Canglan sneered: "Your Majesty, I have no intention of going to war."
Emperor Jingxuan just wanted to use Qin Canglan's prestige to shock Beiyan so that Beiyan would not dare to invade.
But he underestimated Beiyan's wolf ambition too much. Back then when Qin Canglan and Wu Anjun were stationed at the border, Beiyan was always treacherous, let alone lost Wu Anjun now.
Beiyan has tasted the sweetness from it, and I'm afraid Qin Canglan won't be able to go back alive this time.
The last soldier was also beaten to the ground by Su Mo.
Qin Canglan strode forward and grabbed a red tasseled gun from the shelf: "Mo'er, have a few tricks with my uncle!"
Su Mo said, "Okay!"
I'm a little burnt out, what can I say, leave a paw print
