Of course the emperor is not afraid anymore. He also thinks that Gao Zhi will take these noble families and capture the rest of the city. It would be best if they can have a safe journey. He will try to find a way to resettle them. If they cannot be safe, they will be directly damaged on the battlefield. The emperor
I won’t begrudge my tears either.
These people were just bugs to Goguryeo and the Jin Kingdom. They were disgusting, but they were still of some use. If they were crushed to death, they would not only get dirty feet, but also not do much good.
It's best to let them be consumed on the battlefield.
Zhao Guogong and even Bai Shan obviously understood the emperor's meaning, so before going to bed at night, Bai Shan quietly said to Man Bao, "Your Majesty obviously wants to make the best use of Gao Zhiwu."
Speaking of which, I still don't like or appreciate it.
The emperor always protects those he likes and appreciates more than he uses them. His Majesty's eagerness to send him out now is obviously due to his good fortune.
Bai Shandao said: "If his luck is good, he will not lose the position after the Eastern Expedition. If his luck is not good, he will only need a few comments from your majesty."
Man Bao said: "It's a pity for Nisa. If it were him, he might be able to seize this opportunity."
Laisa's condition deteriorated rapidly. Even though Manbao went to give him injections and change dressings every day, he obviously did not cooperate with the treatment, which could be seen from his pulse.
Therefore, within two days people would start to feel drowsy.
The emperor temporarily stayed in Anshi City, and first sent Gao Zhi to lead the army east to test the waters. Zhao Guogong, Ashina and others were preparing to go out, and by the way, they collected some food and grass and appeased the people.
Not long after, news came that Gao Zhi led 40,000 troops and horses all the way east, conquering twelve cities in a row.
Eight of the cities surrendered directly after the people arrived, and the remaining four were captured without much effort.
Gao Zhi is the second prince of Goguryeo, and most of the generals around him are from prominent families in the country. Their relatives and relatives are all over Goguryeo. If they lead the troops to attack the city, how fierce can it be?
Xue Gui followed behind and dispersed his troops to defend the city. The news was sent back to Anshi City. The emperor was overjoyed and immediately asked Zhao Shangshu and Ashina to lead two armies each to march eastward to join Gao Zhi.
He was protected by Yin Li and followed them with a large tent.
Nezha also heard the news and became ill that day.
He was in a daze for a while, and Mo Yuan cried so much that he invited Zhou Man over.
Man Bao took the injection and wrote a new prescription. She paused for a while before handing the prescription to Mo Yuan and whispered: "Get ready for the funeral."
Mo Yuan was stunned for a moment, then came back to his senses, lifted up his robe and knelt down, "Master Zhou, please save my father."
Man Bao shook his head, "The patient doesn't want to live anymore, why should we embarrass him?"
Over the past few days, Manbao had been watching Nasa beg for death while struggling to take medicine and get needles, and he actually felt uncomfortable.
Although doctors want to treat illnesses and save people, they feel sour and uncomfortable at all.
She said: "This medicine will make him walk more comfortably and feel more energetic."
Man Bao said: "He has lost both his energy and blood, and his internal organs have collapsed. There is nothing we can do now."
Mo Yuan burst into tears and could only plead: "Please Master Zhou, please stay here. If it is my father... please Master Zhou give my father a ride."
Man Bao: ...She doesn’t want to give it away. Why is she trying to become someone else’s father-killer?
Although the medicine she is prescribing now is tiger and wolf medicine, it is still medicine that keeps him alive and makes him feel better, not medicine that kills people.
Well, to a certain extent, it is also a medicine that can kill people.
However, Man Bao did not refuse immediately, and only said: "I'm just sitting here. If Nasa doesn't feel well, I might be able to give him an injection to relieve the pain and make him feel better in his last days."
Mo Yuan took the prescription and went to grab the medicine.
When the medicine was ready and delivered, a snowflake actually fell from the gloomy sky outside.
Man Bao, who was sitting on the porch, was stunned. He stood up and walked out of the eaves. He raised his hand to catch a small snowflake. Only then did he realize that snow was falling in the sky. Is this the first snow in Anshi City?
In the room, Mo Yuan took a lot of effort to persuade Nasa to take half a bowl of medicine. He seemed to feel something, pushed the bowl away and looked outside.
Because of the cold, the windows were closed and he couldn't see anything, but he still asked: "I seem to hear the sound of snow."
Mo Yuan was stunned and quickly looked at the servant. The servant came out to take a look and immediately said: "Master, it's snowing."
Nusa then lifted up the quilt and said, "Quickly, help me, help me go and take a look."
Mo Yuan quickly took the thick coat from the servant and put it on his father, then helped him walk to the door.
Hesa stepped out of the door and leaned against the door. Seeing the fluttering snow, tears slipped out of his eyes and fell down the ravines on his face to his mouth, feeling bitter.
He slid along the door and sat on the ground, crying, "This snow came at the wrong time. It's not the right time. If it's eight days earlier, it's only eight days earlier, then..."
Mo Yuan glanced nervously at Zhou Man who was standing in the yard, and couldn't help calling in a low voice: "Father..."
Man Bao looked at him silently. Seeing that the snow was getting heavier and heavier, she simply stopped getting wet in the snow. She returned to the corridor and patted the snowflakes on her head and shoulders. She said to Nusa: "Where can there be so many snowflakes in this world?"
'if'?"
Lai Sa raised his tearful eyes and looked at Zhou Man. He simply leaned against the door and said, "If the Emperor of Jin takes in our princes, isn't he afraid that they will rebel against Jin in the future?"
Man Bao said: "The Jin State is strong. As long as the people are safe and the country is peaceful, Goguryeo is just a few state capitals of our Jin State. Even if they rebel, they will not be able to achieve great things without the response of the world."
"And if the Jin Kingdom reaches a day when people's resentment boils over, there won't be much more of the old Goguryeo royal family."
What's more, based on the emperor's past style, he will not let the Gao royal family continue to rule this land. If it is moved to Jiangnan or Lingnan, after two or three generations, who will still miss the bitter cold land of Liaodong?
Hearing this, Nesa burst into laughter, laughed and burst into tears, shouting with tears streaming down his face: "Yes, even a female imperial doctor in the Jin Dynasty knows this truth, but the king doesn't know it."
"The Kingdom of Jin has gone through the turmoil of its initial establishment. The whole court is united and the monarch and his ministers are in harmony. At this time, they should not do anything to provoke the Kingdom of Jin. However, the king refuses to listen and covets the food, gold, silver, bronzes, and silk and satin of the Jin Kingdom.
, we must enter Gongyingzhou..." Nesa burst into tears, "Although Anshi City guards the gateway to the inner city, it is in the hinterland, so although I don't agree with this move, I still take care of myself. Only today do I know that one step
Wrong, wrong step by step."
"There are no unbroken eggs when the nest is overturned. Anshi City was defeated in the hands of the king, and it was also defeated in my hands. Ahem..." Nesa coughed, and his face turned red.
Man Bao hurriedly stepped forward to give him an injection, but Nesa pushed her hand away and said stubbornly: "Being able to see the first snow of this year is the greatest blessing God has given me. I don't dare to live any longer. I don't dare to live any longer."
Already."
He grabbed Mo Yuan's hand, stood up with difficulty, walked down the corridor step by step, reached out to hold the falling snow, tears fell drop by drop, "I regret it~"
I really regret it. Looking back on the past, they had many opportunities to defend Anshi City. If Yanshou had not rushed forward and led an army of 150,000 into the canyon...
If they could be more cautious and guard the city gate...
Prince Gao Er was more decisive and led the army to hold on. When the snow came down, as long as the Jin army could not leave Anshi City, Anshi City would still be lost, but Goguryeo would be saved.
Lai Sa clutched the snow in his hand and slowly fell down with infinite regret. Mo Yuan touched it and was shocked, "Father——"
Man Bao immediately stepped forward to look at him and shook his head slightly after a moment.
