Chapter 88: Expedition to the capital

I'm afraid that I will lose you, and I can't live forever.

Two days later, no one in the San Francisco army showed the initial symptoms of the epidemic. Chi Canghai finally breathed a sigh of relief when he received the news. Although the seven-day incubation period has not passed, the chance of contracting the plague has been greatly reduced. It's just the situation in the city, but it's not as optimistic as he imagined.

Because he and Mu Mian were too busy, he asked the common people to help cook the medicine, and he watched the sick people take the medicine on time every day, but people still died every day. Chi Canghai even wondered if there was something wrong with his prescription , there is no clinical observation, let alone time for him to verify, Chi Canghai did not dare to change the medicine rashly, every day he watched the dead people being carried out from the market and burned, but he still had to pretend to be confident. He tried to appease the rest of the people, and he would definitely cure them. This kind of pressure and helplessness made Chi Canghai unable to eat every day, but he was powerless... Until five days later, the condition of the people suddenly improved, not only did they no longer have a fever The symptoms, the red spots on his face also began to subside, Chi Canghai finally felt relieved, this prescription is still effective, it probably has something to do with the individual's physique, and the most important thing seems to be to survive the first five days.

The medicines brought in from outside the city are sufficient, and kapok still cooks the medicine every day and puts them outside the market, and then the people in the market take them in and distribute them to the people inside, because everyone's condition has improved, and the people in the market It's not as lifeless as before, and there are gradually chatter and laughter, it's just a topic, and it can't be separated from Chi Canghai: "Doctor Chi, do you have someone in mind?"

Chi Canghai was seeing a little girl, he was taken aback when he heard Aunt Li's words, and then raised the corner of his mouth: "I'm married."

The people around were a little surprised: "You got married at such a young age?"

Chi Canghai smiled and said 'hmm'.

Aunt Li also smiled and said, "It's really a blessing to be able to marry such a good doctor as Doctor Chi. The wife must be very beautiful, right?"

Chi Canghai suppressed a smile and nodded: "It's pretty pretty."

Kapok, who was standing outside the railing waiting for the disinfection of the medicine barrel, couldn't help laughing when he heard everyone's words: "Ms. Li, do you know who Dr. Chi is?"

Aunt Li replied solemnly: "Why don't you know? Doctor Chi is a living Bodhisattva."

Kapok was even happier: "Okay, it's a living Bodhisattva, so do you know who the soldiers who come here to help are?"

Aunt Li snorted, "San Francisco, I asked."

Kapok smiled and said, "Yo, ma'am, you still know San Francisco, so you also know Zhennan Prince's son?"

The people on one side also echoed: "The great hero who leads San Francisco will be the emperor in the future."

Mu Mian raised her eyebrows and said, "Well, then Doctor Chi will be the queen in the future."

Chi Canghai gave Mu Mian a helpless look: "Don't talk nonsense."

In the past few days, Mu Mian has figured out this person's temper. Except when it comes to treating diseases and saving people, seeking medical advice and other things, this person always has a serious face. At other times, especially when facing the common people, he has a very good temper: "I Is there something wrong? Zhennan Wang Shizifei?"

The people were stunned for a moment when they heard this sentence, and then they all looked at Chi Canghai with some excitement: "This is actually the concubine, isn't that the empress of the future?"

"Hey, my mother, the empress actually treated me personally. Am I doing honor to my ancestors?"

"The empress even poured the medicine for me herself."

……

Chi Canghai listened to what they said getting more and more outrageous, and then stared at his lively kapok with a smile, packed up his things and left the market, and if he stayed any longer, he would probably change from Doctor Chi to Lady Chi in a while... …

Chi Canghai went to get the medicine barrel through the white cloth, but suddenly there was a 'hiss', and the medicine barrel in his hand fell to the ground. Kapok was still smiling, but seeing him so startled, he frowned and said, "Sir?"

Chi Canghai shook his head with a smile, and left the market with the medicine barrel in his other hand. Kapok didn't say a word, but followed him all the way back to the medicine shop. When the two entered the house, they suddenly grabbed his left hand, In addition to the wound Chi Canghai cut with the sword before, there was some festering, and there was a red spot on it: "Sir! You..."

Chi Canghai pushed the kapok away: "Don't come near me, don't tell anyone about this."

Kapok frowned: "But sir..."

Chi Canghai: "Promise me."

Kapok couldn't stand the gaze, so he had to grit his teeth and say, "Okay, I won't say anything, then I'll cook medicine for you, sir, Kapok will definitely cure you."

Chi Canghai stared at him for a moment, then smiled: "Okay, Doctor Kapok must be cured."

Kapok stared angrily: "I'm serious."

Chi Canghai smiled and said: "I know that Mu Mian must do what he says, but first go and help me invite the guard surnamed Lin, and tell him that I have something to look for him."

When Lin Qiuqing arrived at the pharmacy, Chi Canghai was waiting for him at the door. Before he got close, he smelled a strong herbal smell, but this smell is everywhere in the city, so it's not unusual, but the pharmacy The smell is stronger: "Shi Zifei, are you looking for me?"

Chi Canghai nodded: "The situation in the city has been brought under control, the conditions of the people in the market are improving, and Lin Hujun and the soldiers have not shown any symptoms, so let's go out of the city today, we must not let the San Francisco army He has been guarding Yiling City."

What Chi Canghai said was actually what Lin Qiuqing had been thinking about these two days. He had already been delayed in Yiling for seven days, and if he delayed for another day, there would be another accident: "Then the concubine?"

Because the cloth towel covered his face, he only looked at his slightly raised eyebrows, and seemed to smile: "The improvement of the people's illness does not mean that they are completely cured. If the epidemic spreads again accidentally, wouldn't all previous efforts be wasted?"

Lin Qiuqing: "This..."

Chi Canghai: "In another ten days, the epidemic will be completely lifted. You go first, and I will catch up with you later. And if San Francisco sets off, who will pay attention to Yiling City?" Think for a while He added: "If you are worried, you can leave a team of soldiers for me."

Lin Qiuqing also felt that it made sense: "It's just that I still need to report this matter to my son."

Chi Canghai nodded: "Mumian, give that letter to Lin Hujun. The situation here is written in the letter. I feel relieved when you leave."

Lin Qiuqing took the letter, said goodbye to Chi Canghai, turned around and left without saying anything.

The gate of Yiling City, which had been tightly closed for seven days, was finally reopened. When he was in the city, he didn't feel it. Lin Qiuqing felt like a lifetime away when he came out. If there was no Shizi Concubine, once he entered, he might never return. ...

"Qiuqing!"

Hearing this sound, Lin Qiuqing raised his head and saw the man who was always confused and irritated, but brave and calm when he was on the battlefield, was running towards him in a hurry, and the corners of his mouth slightly curled up: But, it's worth it...

Zou Ning looked Lin Qiuqing up and down carefully, his eyes were red: "Are you okay? After so many days, you must be okay? Obviously I should have gone..."

Lin Qiuqing grabbed the hand that was fluttering on his clothes, and looked at him amusedly: "Crying in front of the soldiers of your vanguard battalion, you are not afraid of shame." After speaking, he couldn't help but reached out and rubbed his hair.

Zou Ning frowned: "It's nothing to be ashamed of, it's better than you throwing your life away for me. I've thought about it, if something really happens to you, I'll go to Gyeonggi with the son, and I'll type out your share, and then return to this Yiling City, I will accompany you forever!"

Lin Qiuqing was taken aback for a moment, then raised his eyebrows and said, "What about now?"

Zou Ning: "What now?"

Lin Qiuqing looked at the man's eyebrows and eyes with a smile: "Now that I'm back safely, does your promise still count?"

Zou Ning nodded: "Forget it, but now that you're back, I don't have to type out your share..."

Lin Qiuqing could only sigh helplessly when he saw that person's slow reaction: "Then...you can spend the rest of your life with me."

Zou Ning was stunned, feeling his heart beating fast, and seeing Lin Qiuqing walking towards the camp, he suddenly asked, "Where is Princess Shizi?"

Lin Qiuqing: "Follow me to see the prince first."

Lian Jingxiao heard the report from the soldiers that when the gate of Yiling City was opened, he hurried out of the big tent, but only saw Lin Qiuqing and the soldiers of the Qianfeng Battalion. His gaze returned to Yiling City in the distance.

Lin Qiuqing walked up to Lian Jingxiao and saluted: "The last general pays his respects to the prince."

Lian Jingxiao smiled faintly: "Qiuqing, I'm very happy that you can come back safely."

Lin Qiuqing sighed in his heart, thought for a while and said, "Shi Zifei..."

Lian Jingxiao still looked into the distance: "He told us to go first, and he wants to stay and continue to take care of the people in the city."

Lin Qiuqing was taken aback, even when Jing Xiao said this, there was no surprise at all, as if he knew it when the door opened but he didn't see the figure of that person, the so-called tacit understanding is nothing more than that. ... But I felt even more sour in my heart: "Yes, the concubine Shizi really planned that, and he still has a letter to give to the son." As he spoke, he handed over the letter

Lian Jingxiao opened the letter and read it for a while, then looked into the distance and nodded slowly: "If that's the case, let's set off today with the whole army."

……

Chi Canghai looked at the back of Lin Qiuqing who turned around, and smiled faintly. He knew that if Lin Qiuqing didn't find anything wrong, then that person would probably agree to lead the troops first, then frowned very lightly, turned and walked into the house Go, the epidemic developed much faster than he imagined.

Kapok wanted to cook medicine, but suddenly heard the sound of a cup falling from the room, and hurried in to check, but only saw a broken teacup on the ground, and then went to delay the door of Canghai's room, and found the door It has been locked: "Sir, what's the matter with you? Has the epidemic already broken out? Sir, open the door."

After shouting for a long time, I heard the man's voice coming from the room. Not only did it sound weak, but it was even intermittent: "I'm fine, go get busy."

Mu Mian knew something was wrong just by hearing the voice: "Sir, I know you are afraid of infecting me, but if you develop a fever, it may be difficult for you to go to the ground. How can you do it yourself? And the master said that the so-called plague is really a plague. The turbid air is specially for the weak and frail. I am so strong that nothing will happen. I think the husband is probably tired by the wound. I knew... I knew..." Kapok knew it for a long time, but she didn't know what to do. What to pick up, he knew that even if it never happened once, this person would probably do the same.

Chi Canghai smiled wryly: "I really didn't think so much at the time..." If he had thought of this, he would have been more careful and wouldn't have been cut by the blade. After all, he didn't want to die so much...Jing Xiao... this time, I'm afraid I'm going to break my promise to you...

Mu Mian heard a sudden loud noise in the room, which seemed to be the sound of a wooden chair falling to the ground, and then there was no more sound, and she couldn't help being anxious: "Sir, sir! Open the door!"

Mu Mian cried loudly and urgently, but there was no response from inside the room, she wiped her tears with her sleeve, and then slammed into the wooden door, except for the pain of hitting herself, the wooden door still didn't move at all, just about to slam it again, suddenly He heard a cold male voice from behind: "Is the sea in it?"
