worst enemy
Leng Ji was afraid of causing harm to Mu Qingwan and the child, so he did not dare to speed up rashly, but even though he had tried his best to slow down, Mu Qingwan still felt very uncomfortable. She weakly shouted Leng Ji to slow down. At this moment, Leng Ji was already sweating profusely, and the man in black behind him was getting closer and closer, and the Dragon Shadow Guards could hardly resist it.
Leng Ji was anxiously thinking about how to deal with it, and at this critical moment, another group of men in black suddenly rushed out of the forest, but these people were all covered. They quickly fought with the men in black who were attacking here, and quickly stopped their offensive momentum.
Although Mu Qingwan and the others were wondering who was secretly helping them, they didn't have the heart to go into it. After all, they didn't know the origin of the group of masked men in black.
Now, the best strategy is to take advantage of the two groups of people's fighting skills to leave this place of right and wrong.
Leng Ji quickly turned his horse's head and started driving up the official road. The official road was wide and flat. Even if he speeded up a little, he didn't have to worry that Mu Qingwan couldn't stand it.
Although the group was covered in scars, they quickly broke away from the encirclement of the man in black.
When it was dark, I finally found a secluded village - Niupu Village. Leng Ji found a simple farmer in the village.
The family's surname is Fang, and Leng Ji chose to live in this family because he had just caught a villager and learned that the old man named Fang was the best doctor within five miles. After some trouble, he knew that Mu Qingwan's body had reached its limit and needed rest and recuperation. Most of him and the Dragon Shadow Guard brothers were injured and urgently needed a treatment. Fortunately, the village was secluded and the pursuers should not chase here for the time being.
Mu Qingwan forced herself to get off the carriage and asked Leng Ji to help him walk towards the farmers. Leng Ji stepped forward and knocked on the door. The two young women responded to the door, one of whom was even looking at them in the manner of a doctor, but the old man mentioned by the villagers did not see.
The younger woman saw Mu Qingwan, who looked obviously weak and Leng Ji, who was injured in her arm, and did not ask any more questions. She just welcomed them in and poured them two more cups of warm water.
Mu Qingwan saw that the older young woman began to prescribe after taking her pulse. She happened to sit next to her and saw that she wrote the prescription without hesitation. She couldn't help but feel a little surprised. Unexpectedly, such a remote place had such a female doctor with such excellent medical skills.
Although the medicinal materials she used were ordinary, they were well matched, which showed her profound medical skills. She couldn't help but look at this young woman with admiration:
"Miss this prescription is very good, and the medication is accurate. I don't know where to take it?"
"My name is Fang Xingluo, just call me Xingluo." Fang Xingluo was shy when he saw a stranger and said generously: "My father taught me medical skills since he was a child. He is a famous doctor in this area."
When she talked about her father, she was quite proud of her words. Mu Qingwan smiled and only heard Fang Xingluo say:
"My sister can understand this prescription, so she should be quite good at Qihuang's technique, right?"
She never pays attention to rules when taking medicine. Since she was able to prescribe medicine separately when she grew up, she has been nicknamed "genius" by her father. Although she is rebellious, doctors never follow the established methods when taking medicine, but they can always win by surprise. Sometimes it makes her father sigh. However, before the efficacy is effective, few people will praise the prescription she prescribes so much. Every time, when the prescription she prescribes works, others will convince and recognize her medical skills.
Therefore, she was quite surprised at Mu Qingwan's praise, and she also felt a little more sympathetic about her.
Mu Qingwan nodded and said with a shy smile:
"Although I understand medical skills, I follow the orthodox rules in most cases. Although the medication is stable, sometimes I inevitably lack some wonderful ideas of winning unexpectedly. In this regard, I am definitely not as good as girls."
Fang Xingluo handed the prescription to his sister and asked her to decoct the medicine according to the prescription. Then he smiled:
"Sister is too good. How can Xingluo have such medical skills as his father? He just learned some basic knowledge."
When Mu Qingwan heard this, she suddenly remembered the problems that had bothered her in the past few days. She thought, maybe she could show it to this little girl, and maybe she would have a surprise.
After making up her mind, she asked Leng Ji to go to the carriage to bring her prescription, and she told Fang Xingluo about the symptoms of cold and fever.
The village where the Fang family is located is not far from the border of Beiyan, so naturally I have heard of cold and heat. Moreover, she and her father are also quite interested in this chronic disease, but they are suffering from not finding a good prescription.
She took the disease and prescriptions in Leng Ji's hand, and sat on the bamboo chair and looked at her intently. She seemed to have suddenly been isolated from the world, as if nothing could disturb her.
Mu Qingwan didn't bother her and quietly waited for her conclusion.
After a long time, Fang Xingluo raised his head and looked at Mu Qingwan. His eyes were bright, "Sister, your prescription is very exquisite, but the flame grass in it is now unsuccessful..."
"Yes." Mu Qingwan frowned and nodded, "I have been bothering about this medicine. If other herbs can be replaced, then cold and heat will no longer be a stubborn disease..."
Fang Xingluo nodded, suddenly as if he had remembered something, "Ah--" and then claimed Mu Qingwan, got up quickly and ran outside.
Not long after, she ran back panting, holding a few herbs with red tassels in her hand.
Mu Qingwan took it in confusion, sniffed it carefully, picked a leaf and chewed it in her mouth. After a moment, an ecstasy light suddenly burst out from her eyes. "This medicine is spicy, bitter and warm, and is quite similar to the flame grass recorded in medical books. Perhaps it can replace the flame grass..."
She hurriedly grabbed Fang Xingluo's hand and asked:
"What is the name of this medicine?"
"This is a herb cultivated by my father at home. It is a new variety obtained after the grafting of two herbs, Qixingzhu and Zui Meng Xianhua. It has not been named yet..."
"Grafting?" Mu Qingwan didn't expect that the ancients had known to use grafting to cultivate new varieties.
"Yes." Fang Xingluo nodded, and saw that her face was a little better, and said, "Sister is interested, why not go to the medicine garden with her younger sister?"
Mu Qingwan naturally agreed happily, "The honor is so great."
She followed Fang Xingluo to a large medicinal garden behind their house to watch, and then she realized what it means to have heaven and people outside of them. The medicinal herbs in the medicinal garden are all kinds of strange but rare holy products. Many medicinal herbs are not even famous for her.
If she had a good idea, the old man named Fang's medical skills would definitely not be inferior to his master. However, what is strange is that the master's name is well known in the world, but the father and daughter of Fang's surname are unknown.
However, she realized as soon as she thought about it. Perhaps, she had no choice but to hide her name here, so she would rather not spy on other people's privacy.
In short, it would be worthwhile to be able to meet such a strange woman and get such a medicine.
Mu Qingwan originally wanted to meet Fang Xingluo's father Fang Shuhuai and leave, but Fang Shuhuai went to the neighboring county for medical treatment and would not come back in five days. She had to give up. She thought that she would come to pay respects with Xiahou Lie in the future. After thanking her again and again, she and Leng Ji and the others got into a carriage and left Niupu Village at noon the next day.
After leaving Niupu Village, I encountered no obstacles along the way. I successfully passed the border and entered the Western Chu territory.
She had already asked Leng Ji to send someone to the Southwest Military Camp to Xiahou Lie in advance for the herbs that Fang Xingluo gave her to Xiahou Lie. After she and Fang Xingluo studied it for a night, she was able to confirm that this unknown medicine should produce the effect of the flame herbs, so Xiahou Lie and the sick soldiers should be cured soon as they take the medicine.
Once this major event is resolved, they don’t have to be so rush. Moreover, since the last attack, Mu Qingwan’s body can no longer stand the tossing, so the group slowly moved forward and only arrived at the capital of Xichu, Liangcheng, after another eight days.
They had received news three days ago that Xiahou Lie's troops had arrived at the Western Chu Palace and were fighting the attacking alliance army of Helian Hengzhi and Murong Chen with the soldiers of Western Chu.
But now it is the period of war, and the entire Liangcheng is very tightly defended. Mu Qingwan has been exhausted after traveling for so long, so Leng Ji decided to let her rest for a night before trying to find a way to enter the city.
When she returned to her motherland again, Mu Qingwan felt that it was only less than two years, but it made her feel like she was a different life. She remembered the scene of unwillingness to put on her wedding dress from here, boarding the wedding car sent by Xiahou Lie, and saying goodbye to her father and mother. She couldn't help but feel mixed emotions.
She opened the window and looked from the second floor of the inn where she was. She could see the majestic Xichu Palace in the distance at a glance. It was where she grew up. I wonder if the father, mother, brothers and sisters are all okay? I wonder if Xiahou Lie is all okay? Did the prescription work as she expected?
She stroked her belly and felt that fate was really a mess. Once upon a time, she was so unwilling to marry Xiahou Lie. At this moment, she had nurtured his blood and came here desperately for him;
Once upon a time, she believed so firmly that she could be with Prime Minister Helian Hengzhibai, but now, he has become her biggest enemy.
Because at this moment, her parents and husband are in danger at any time because of him.
She didn't know whether all this was fate itself or was caused by her. If she had been willing to be with Helian Hengzhi at the beginning, wouldn't all this happen?
However, she never regretted that if time could go back, she believed that she would make the same choice.
