She turned to Grandma Jin Ru and said, "Hurry up and ask him to come in and talk."

After Leng Ji came in and greeted everyone one by one, he handed the letter in his hand to Mu Qingwan:

"Master Wan, this is my letter to you."

Mu Qingwan took it with a happy face, tore open the envelope and read it. There were only a few words inside, but they made her extremely heart-broken:

"Wan, the army has arrived at the Mutong River early this morning. It has defeated several blockades of Helian Hengzhi on the way. The soldiers are full of momentum and will surely return victorious as soon as possible. Don't worry about you and the baby. Remember to take good care of yourself.

Physically. In addition, the Imperial Grandmother is getting older and her energy is not as good as before. You should visit her every now and then and chat with her. Just say that everything is fine here and ask her not to miss her."

"Sister Wan, what did my cousin say in the letter? It made you smile so sweetly."

Seeing her staring intently, Chu Xia joked with a smile.

"It's just a wish for peace." Mu Qingwan smiled shyly, closed the letter and said to Su Hanzhi: "By the way, grandma, you want me to say hello to you for him, saying that everything is fine with him there, please don't need to

miss."

Su Hanzhi also smiled, nodded and said, "Okay, okay, just be safe."

Upon hearing that Xia Houlie was safe and sound, Zhaohe's expression softened a lot:

"The imperial message sent by the Ministry of War yesterday stated that the army will arrive at the Mutong River early this morning, which is only a few dozen miles away from the capital of Western Chu. The Western Chu army should soon join forces. When the two armies join forces, plus the emperor

My brother has been familiar with military books since he was a child and is proficient in various strategies and tactics. I think he will return victorious in a short time."

Mu Qingwan naturally had no doubts about Xia Houlie's ability. She subconsciously touched her belly with her hand, her eyes full of longing.

Southwest Camp

"Fu Yuan, the deputy general of the Left Army, reported that on December 10, General Chen Mo's army arrived at the outer city of Western Chu and intercepted Murong Chen's reinforcements from the west. Fu Yuan was ordered to go to war, defeating He Lian Heng's elite right wing and annihilating them.

There were more than ten thousand enemies, and He Lianheng's general Cheng Zhao abandoned all his baggage and retreated from the city of Ban."

Fuyuan pointed at the map on the wall and reported to Xia Houlie who was sitting in front of the case.

After he finished speaking, Sima Hao, the Minister of War next to him, said: "Your Majesty, the armies on my left and right have won every battle. Now they have been in camp for more than eighty miles, and they are as stable as Mount Tai."

During this expedition, Xiahou Lie did not want the world to know the fact that he was not dead, so he pretended to be the Fourth Prince Xiahou Zhan in front of others.

Xia Houlie narrowed his eyes and said: "Although we won the battle, the main forces of Helian Hengzhi and Murong Chen were not damaged. He has been avoiding a decisive battle with me. He must have other intentions."

He stood up and walked to the map. Leng Su immediately put a cloak on him. He pointed at several key points on the map and set up several lines of defense. Then he sat down and said:

"Password, the armies on the left and right advance alternately, and must be the first to enter Liangcheng, the capital of the Western Chu Kingdom, before dawn tomorrow."

"According to the order!"

All the generals took orders and left.

When only Leng Su was left in the tent, he coughed twice. Leng Su hurriedly poured him a cup of hot water and said anxiously: "Master, what do you think?"

Xia Houlie took the tea and took a sip, gathered his cloak, closed his eyes, his brows were filled with fatigue, he raised his hand and waved, and asked:

"Do you have a letter from your master Wan?"

"I heard that there was heavy snowfall across Beiyan yesterday. I must have been delayed on the road. I will go and urge you later."

Xia Houlie nodded, covered his mouth and coughed again, and stood up slowly. Just as he was about to leave, his tall body suddenly swayed. Fortunately, Leng Su had the quick eyesight and quick hands to hold him steady.

He waved his hand towards Leng Su: "I... I'm a little tired... I want to lie down for a while... Remember to wake me up when your Master Wan has written a letter..."

Leng Su helped him walk to the bed, his face full of anxiety: "Master, are you sick?"

Xia Houlie lay down on the bed and comforted him in a low voice: "It's okay, I just feel the cold..."

"But you haven't looked well since yesterday, and you've been coughing again today..."

As he spoke, he didn't care about the courtesy of a monarch and his ministers. He leaned over to touch Xia Houlie's forehead. This touch scared even him.

Cold sweat.

"Master, you have a high fever and are chilled all over. I'm afraid it doesn't look like you have a cold..."

When he said this, his expression suddenly changed, "Master, you don't have , do you? Many soldiers in the military camp have contracted this disease due to acclimatization..."

Xia Houlie opened his eyes suddenly and glanced at the military tent, then said in a deep voice to Leng Su: "Don't tell anyone, don't say I'm sick, it will affect the morale of the army..."

Leng Su also glanced at the military tent and said in a lowered voice: "Master, does your subordinate have a secret order to accompany the military physician to check for pulse?"

Xia Houlie closed his eyes and thought for a while, then nodded, with a hint of weakness in his voice:

"Go ahead, remember, be careful not to let anyone see you."

"Imperial doctor, how are you doing?"

Leng Su couldn't help feeling a little anxious when he saw the gray-haired imperial doctor keeping silent while checking his pulse.

Just as the old doctor was about to speak, the military tent was suddenly opened from the outside. Fuyuan quickly knelt down on the ground and reported:

"Your Majesty, He Lianheng attacked the camp at night."

Lying on the bed, Xia Houlie's body seemed to be burning like a blazing fire. He closed his eyes and then said with strength, "I heard the sound of drums and trumpets."

"I request you to lead the army to attack, and I swear to kill He Lian Heng's head!"

Xia Houlie closed his eyes and shook his head, and said in a deep voice: "This is Helian Hengzhi spying on the military situation. Pass the order and all the major battalions should stay still! We will wait until daybreak!"

Although Fu Yuan was a little dissatisfied, he had no choice but to follow the order and said, "Follow the order!"

When he walked out, Xia Houlie sighed and closed his eyes. The pain on his face could no longer be suppressed.

Leng Su looked extremely worried, and quickly glanced at the imperial doctor, and the two of them quietly walked out of the military tent.

"Imperial physician, how is the prince's condition?"

"Uh..." The imperial doctor paused for a moment, then frowned and said, "Guard Leng, I'm so bold to make an assumption, Your Majesty..."

Seeing his hesitation, Leng Su's heart skipped a beat, and his face suddenly darkened, "What's going on?"

The imperial doctor sighed and said: "Judging from the pulse, the prince is not suffering from wind and cold occasionally, but is suffering from chills and fever..."

"Cold and fever syndrome?" Leng Su's expression changed, "I'm just asking if it's a problem?"

"If it is really a syndrome, it would be too dangerous." The imperial doctor looked to the side and then whispered: "This disease cannot be completely protected even in the capital, let alone in a military camp where medicine is in short supply.

Even……"

When he said this, he saw that Leng Su's face had turned into a sinister expression, and he was about to burst into tears, and he immediately did not dare to say any more.

The old doctor wiped his sweat and said again:

"Now that the matter has come to this, hiding it like this is no longer an option. Let's ask Guard Leng to quickly convey his orders to the capital. Please ask the Emperor to send good doctors and medicine as soon as possible, otherwise the prince may be very dangerous..."

Leng Su gritted his teeth and thought for a while, then said in a deep voice: "Go quickly and write down the prince's symptoms in detail and give it to me. This matter must not be made public, otherwise..." His voice was as cold as a thousand years of ice, "You know the consequences!

"

The old lady doctor Nuonuo left.

Leng Su returned to the military tent. Xia Houlie had woken up and was groping under the pillow. He hurriedly walked over and said, "Master, what are you looking for?"

"Where's my little jade rabbit?"

Leng Su hurriedly went to the cabinet next to him and took the little jade rabbit and handed it to him, "Here it is. Yesterday you fell asleep while sitting on the chair holding it. I was afraid that the jade rabbit would break, so I put it away for you.

Already."

Xia Houlie held the little rabbit tightly. His whole body felt as if he had fallen into an ice cave and was being boiled in a frying pan. He was in great pain. Only by stroking the rabbit could his pain be relieved.

a bit.

"Master..." Leng Su was hesitating whether to tell him about his condition.

Xia Houlie opened his eyes slightly and glanced at him, "Is there something wrong with my condition?"

Leng Su gritted his teeth and said: "Master, the imperial doctor said that you are suffering from syndrome. This disease is very dangerous. You should ask your subordinates to inform the emperor immediately, so that the imperial hospital can quickly prepare medicine according to your illness..."

Xia Houlie's hand suddenly squeezed the little jade rabbit in his hand. He closed his eyes and thought for a while, then said: "Bring me a pen and paper, and I will write it myself."

Yi Shou Yuan

Showa handed a letter to Su Hanzhi with a serious look on his face, "Emperor Grandma, something bad is going on. Something happened to the Emperor's brother in the southwest military camp..."

"What?" Su Hanzhi quickly took the letter and read it at a glance. Her face suddenly turned pale: "Zhao Lan actually suffered from . This disease is very bad even in the capital. In the southwest camp, I'm afraid..."

"Brother Huang has repeatedly warned Qingwan not to know about it, so we must hide this matter..."

Su Hanzhi nodded, "What did the hospital say?"

"The prescription is already being prepared. Sun'er ordered them to develop a prescription within three days, otherwise we will come to see you."

"Girl Qing's medical skills are unparalleled in the world. If she were to prepare the medicine, she would get twice the result with half the effort, but we can't let her know about this..."

Zhaohe pondered for a long time and suddenly said: "Perhaps, we can find another excuse to ask Qingwan to prepare the prescription..."

Lu Qinxia and Chu Xia both lived in Bieyuan, which immediately made Mu Qingwan feel a lot more lively. The three of them had lunch together, and headed to the trestle by the lake with Xuan'er and Niannian in their arms.

Although it is already the middle of winter, this villa has several hot springs and a fire dragon under the ground, so it doesn't feel cold. Nuan Nuan and Lan Lan were also taken out of the palace, and the two babies were with them.

It was a fun time, and the three adults chatted and fed the fish together, which was quite pleasant.

Mu Qingwan threw a lot of steamed bun crumbs into the lake and watched the fish eating happily. The crisp barking of dogs and the giggles of two children came from the side. She enjoyed the tranquility leisurely and slowly.

Feeling a little sleepy.

Seeing her sleepy state, Lu Qinxia hurriedly said:

"Qingwan, if you're not feeling well, please go sleep for a while."

Mu Qingwan smiled and said: "I went to bed very early last night and got up late today. If I go to bed now, wouldn't I be sleeping most of the day?"
