Bianshanhan [farming]

A quarter of an hour was not enough to deal with the wound, this time without Li Qingrui's intercession, Dr. Lu spoke to the yamen servant.

The yamen servant is from this county, and his old lady was rescued by Dr. Lu. Although he treated the common people coldly, he still respected Dr. Lu and agreed happily.

On that side, Li Qingrui had already learned the whole story from Jiang Liping.

Jiang Cong's guard battalion escorted Hongzhou's tribute silk to Beijing. When they were resting at the post station on the way, several soldiers on duty violated the order and secretly drank in the warehouse. After getting drunk, they touched an oil lamp and caused a fire.

Silk is flammable, and when others discover it, there is no room for redemption.To make matters worse, the fire also spread to the Huzhou tribute papers stationed in the same station, and as a result, the tributes of the two states were destroyed.

Among the ten soldiers on duty, three died in the fire, the other seven were all killed, and the rest of the guard battalion were all sent to the extreme north due to dereliction of duty, and could not leave that bitter cold land forever.

Daliang was exiled in four places—the extreme south, the extreme north, the extreme east, and the extreme west. "People from the south are sent to the north, and people from the north are sent to the south."

They were escorted on the road in early autumn, and they traveled to Bingzhou in January. A few days ago, when they were walking on the official road, a litter of wild boars rushed down from the mountain.

The wild boar was fierce and ran amok among the crowd. Jiang Cong tried to lure the wild boar away. Because he was wearing shackles, he was restrained, his legs were pierced by his fangs, and he was seriously injured.

The escort walked fifty miles a day, even if the prisoner died on the road, there would be no delay. Jiang Cong was on the road with injuries, and the deterioration was severe. Jiang Liping and others thought that he might not be able to survive this hurdle, but they did not expect to meet the Li family.

Hearing Li Qingrui's self-introduction of his family name, Jiang Liping was a little stunned, "I seem to have heard Jiang Cong mention... Did you take your children to Hongzhou for medical treatment and encountered bandits on the way?"

Li Qingrui nodded repeatedly, before the two of them could say anything more, the yamen servants had already started to urge them away.

Jiang Cong, whose wounds and body had been cleaned, was carried back to the prison. Li Qingrui and Jiang Liping bid farewell in a hurry, asking them to take care of Jiang Cong when the medicine would be delivered.

"Don't worry about that. We have been brothers with Jiang Cong for many years. Besides, he was injured to protect us. We will definitely take care of him with all our heart..." Jiang Liping shouted outside.

The door was slammed shut with a bang, and the prison was dark again. Jiang Liping stretched out his hand to test it, but Jiang Cong's body was still hot, and he couldn't help but slumped down on the cold ground.

The freshly applied ointment exudes a strong medicinal fragrance, but in this foul-smelling cell, the smell is too faint.

In the dark, I don't know who sobbed twice, "Jiang, Brother Jiang will, will he..."

He didn't say that word, but everyone knew that Jiang Cong might not be able to go to the land of exile with them.

Even though he has received medical treatment and taken the miracle medicine, the high fever can subside today, but how can he drag his injured leg and walk more than 2000 miles? !

Moreover, after Bingzhou, the north is deserted, and the road is full of dangers and wild animals. They don't know if they are healthy and can walk to the border town alive. How many days can Jiang Cong's sick body last?

Seeing helplessly that the brothers were in deep pain and helpless, and their future was unknown, the cell soon fell into a deathly silence.

Li Qingrui and others left the yamen, Dr. Lu and Li Qingzhuo immediately went back to the shop to get some medicine and boil it. When Li Qingwen told his family about Jiang Cong, Chen almost burst into tears, "This, this is really a catastrophe!"

Li Qingrui frowned thickly, as if thinking about something.

Li Qingwen was in a panic when he was on the street. After seeing Jiang Cong's wound in the prison, he still couldn't calm down. He said, "Dr. Lu said, if brother Jiang's wound is healed for a day and a half later, I'm afraid he won't be able to save it. Then Even if you lie down and take good care of it for three or two months, it is hard to say that you will be safe and sound in the future. Tomorrow, the guards will escort you to the road, and you will be short of clothes and medicines.

Jiang Shi trembled her lips and said in a trembling voice: "This, what should I do?"

Li Qingwen lowered his head, thinking about the sharp and bright eyes in his dream, and said: "He is now a criminal, and he is restricted too much. If no one is there to take care of him, he will definitely not be able to reach the land of exile safely..."

Hearing this, Li Qingrui raised his head sharply, "Zai'er, you..."

"I want to escort Big Brother Jiang to the border town." Li Qingwen said with an unusually firm tone.

Mrs. Jiang and Mrs. Chen cried aloud. They just learned that the border town is more than 2000 miles away from the county seat, which is too far away!

Li Qingrui's lips moved a few times, and suddenly he raised his hand and patted Li Qingwen's shoulder heavily, "You are good, son, you are good, you are indeed a descendant of our Li family, you are really kind!"

Li Qingrui panted heavily excitedly, "This journey is full of mountains and rivers, and it's extremely difficult. You can't do it alone. Brother, go!"

"I'm going too, I'm going too!" Li Qingfeng said not to be outdone: "Didn't daddy say that the grace of saving lives must not be forgotten, brother Jiang is in trouble now, we can't just leave him alone!"

Seeing the three sons like this, Chen couldn't help crying, but he couldn't say a word "no". Even if the child's father was here, he would probably do the same.

They saved three lives of their old Li's family back then, so they couldn't be ungrateful and ignore their benefactor's suffering.

Saying what he was holding back in his heart, Li Qingwen felt much happier. He wiped his mother's tears clumsily with his sleeve, and said, "Mother, don't cry. My father traveled farther back then. Not only did he come back safely, but he also learned his skills. A dead friend..."

"Yeah, yeah." Li Qingfeng wasn't scared at all, and he was eager to try, "Father and elder brother have traveled a lot, I haven't been out much yet, this time it's my turn!"

Seeing his ignorant look, Mrs. Chen got angry, and slapped him, "You don't know how much your father and the others have suffered outside, so you just followed him!"

"You should go out and taste it if you don't know!" Li Qingfeng said while hiding.

Because of the youngest son, the Li family has experienced a lot of things. After she shed tears, Chen had to think about the serious things at hand. And Zier..."

"I'll go!" Li Qingwen said: "Mom, have you forgotten that I went to many places with my grandfather, father and elder brother before, I can do it... Father and third brother are not here, there must be no one at home, fourth brother stays Come down."

Chen was a little hesitant, she felt that the youngest son was not as solid as the fourth son, and it was going to be winter soon, and the journey was very exhausting.

Li Qingfeng quit and insisted on going, but Li Qingrui said, "Zaier and I will go."

After being glared at by his elder brother, Li Qingfeng didn't dare to make trouble anymore, with a depressed expression on his face.

Mrs. Chen understood what was going on in his heart. Back then, Jiang Cong blocked the knife for his youngest son, and Zai'er would naturally repay this kindness.

It has been decided that the two brothers will go north, and the things to be done must be arranged immediately.

The first thing to bear the brunt is the customs clearance guide. Without this, unless they fly with wings, they will be arrested before reaching the border town.

The document was issued by the county government, but if the head of the village came to the yamen to testify, he had to go back to the village to find the head of the village. This matter could only be handled by Li Qingrui. Li Maoxian was not around, so he had to be in charge of the family now.

Li Qingrui was about to go back to the village, and Mrs. Chen called him, his voice was a little hoarse after crying, "Boss, take all the money from the family, and if it is not enough, go to your second grandfather to borrow some...you go here It might take several months for the trip, and I have to bring clothes and so on, hey, forget it, I will go back with you!"

Mrs. Chen was worried, so she went home with her. Mrs. Jiang thought about it and joined them. Mrs. Li Zhengliang wanted to go back, but Mrs. Jiang refused to let them.

Just like that, Chen Shi, Jiang Shi and Li Qingrui hired a carriage to go back to the village. Brothers Li Qingfeng and Li Qingwen waited at the back door of the yamen with their nephew.

After a while, Li Qingzhuo arrived with the medicine and porridge, and after speaking, he asked the yamen servant to take him to the prison.

Shocked and terrified until now, the big and the small were tired and hungry, Li Qingzhuo took them to eat noodles nearby, Li Qingwen had no appetite and still stuffed half of the bowl, he was about to fight a tough battle, he couldn't do without food .

Hearing their decision, Li Qingzhuo frowned and said, "If you want to go, I should go. You don't know how to heal your wounds. Can you deal with accidents on the way?"

Li Qingfeng snorted and poured soup and noodles into his stomach, and said, "You have to tell your elder brother about this. If he doesn't agree, you can't go either."

The carriage ran all the way to Yangshu Village, attracting the villagers to watch curiously. Before the carriage was stable, Li Qingrui jumped off the ground and went straight to Li Chang's house, but it was all in vain.

"Your uncle has gone to your second grandpa's house!" said Guo's aunt.

Li Qingrui immediately returned to Li Benshan's home, and when he entered the door, he saw many people standing in the yard. Li Maoqun was surrounded by a group of people, as if he was being persuaded, and Li Maoqun Guo Daquan was among them.

"Uncle, I need you urgently." Li Qingrui went over to Guo Daquan and said, "I'm going to lie far away, please trouble Uncle to come with me to the yamen for a customs clearance guide."

Because he was in a hurry, Li Qingrui didn't avoid people when he said this. Everyone in the courtyard looked over and asked him where he was going.

"Send a friend to the border town..." Li Qingrui said vaguely.

Knowing that Li Qingrui is a person who can tell the difference between the important and the important, it must be an important matter, Guo Daquan immediately walked out.

Li Qingrui turned around when Li Maoqun ran behind him, "Nephew, I'll go with you!"

Not knowing why he said that, Li Qingrui was stunned for a moment, and said as he walked, "Uncle Maoqun, it's too far away, and the road is not safe, I can't let you take risks."

"Don't be afraid, the worst thing is to die outside, that's still clean, and if I stay at home, I will go crazy if I don't get mad!" Li Maoqun followed closely, very insistent.

Not knowing what happened, Li Qingrui looked at Guo Daquan, Guo Daquan sighed and said, "He started fighting right after he got home, and he went to live on the mountain in such a cold day, your second grandpa only found out about this in the morning, and a group of people put him to death." get back……"

"I can't stay in this house for a quarter of an hour!" Li Maoqun gritted his teeth and said bitterly, "I'd rather die outside than go back!"

Li Maoqun is stubborn, Li Qingrui will not be able to persuade him for a while, so he can only let him follow, and persuade him after finishing the business.
