Chapter 74
Shu Ying always thought that the medical treatment was probably done by Kong Lingyi alone. He found so many witch doctors along the way to treat him. This was an extremely luxurious thing in itself, but he never thought that this even more luxurious thing was that other people also found a lot of witch doctors just for the treatment of that patient.
Thinking of this, Shu Ying couldn't help but ask Bu'er, "Bu'er, what kind of disease did the young master you mentioned have? How could he need so many witch doctors to come to see the doctor?"
Bu'er, who was originally smiling, suddenly froze when he heard Shu Ying's words. After hesitating for a moment, he said with a far-fetched smile: "Girl, what are you asking about this? You are a guest of Lord Kong, you just need to live here and wait for Lord Kong to come back! It's better to know less about the matter in the general's mansion!"
In the last sentence, Bu'er significantly enhanced his tone, and the alienation in his eyes was also visible. Shu Yun couldn't help but frowned and fell silent.
The so-called general's mansion and the sick young master seem not that simple!
The noise in the West Garden never stopped, and Bu'er didn't want Shu Ying to watch the fun. She looked for some needles and threads to watch her sit aside, and sat there for a whole morning. After lunch, Shu Ying couldn't sit still and asked Zhang's mother to come and find Ji Yang. She said to Ji Yang seriously: "Brother Ji, I'm going to go out for a walk!"
Ji Yang frowned in embarrassment, but finally nodded and said to Shu Ying: "It is not convenient for Yucheng these days. If it is convenient for the girl, please change into men's clothes and go out with me!"
Women's clothing is really inconvenient!
Ji Yang didn't say this.
Shu Ying didn't care, so he went to search for Bu'er happily. He looked at her with a difficult face and found a clean and ordinary men's clothing. He quickly got into the house to change it.
"Girl, it's not good to go out at this time, right?" Bu'er didn't know what he was worried about. Looking at Shu Qing's spirited look, he couldn't help but mutter: "It's getting late, and it's time to rest in a few hours."
Shu Ying's straps were striking, and looked at Bu'er with a strange look on his face and asked, "Bu'er, it's just past noon now, and it's still several hours until dark! Why is it called late? Of course, I will watch the time come back, just don't worry about this..."
Bu'er frowned, looked at Shu Yi's clothes and tried to please him, jumped out of the room and stood with Ji Yang. Bu'er's eyes couldn't help but become darker again. He opened his mouth several times before he said: "Then... girl, remember to come back earlier!"
Shu Ying waved his hand and smiled at Bu'er. He didn't care too much about Bu'er's gaze. He followed Ji Yang and walked through many veranda and gardens, and finally followed the bluestone road to the back door.
Ji Yang handed the doorman a sign and looked at it, then took Shu Ying away from the General's Mansion.
Because only Ji Yang took him, Shu Ying's mood suddenly relaxed a lot. When he asked Bu Er, he couldn't help but ask Ji Yang while he was walking around. Ji Yang was thinking that Shu Ying had saved so many brothers at the time, and the key things could not be said, but the general news still told Shu Ying in a concise manner, which finally made Shu Ying have a little understanding of the General Mansion in Yucheng.
In the 30th year of Zhiyuan, Emperor Taizu died, Emperor Min ascended the throne, and changed the country's name to Zhenyong.
In the first year of Zhenyong, the barbarians in the northwest received this news. Taking advantage of the alternating thrones in the court, they invaded in one fell swoop. Within July, they seized four cities and plundered 800 miles of territory, shocking the government and the public and in an uproar.
Emperor Min dyed his hair all night and summoned important officials in the court to discuss how to retreat to the barbarians, but no one dared to take the order, and it took three days to delay.
At this moment, Duan Wenche, the eldest son of Duke Lu's Mansion, submitted a memorial, wishing to lead 100,000 troops to the northwest, repel the barbarians and regain their territory.
It is said that Emperor Min cried all night in the bedroom with the memorial. The next morning, he personally wrote an imperial edict and approved Duan Wenche's request. The Ministry of War approved 100,000 troops and horses, and personally sent Duan Wenche away with armor, asking him to take the army to the northwest.
In the blink of an eye, how many people returned to the battle?
This battle lasted for three years.
The 100,000 army lost more than half, and finally regained the three cities and 500 miles of territory.
Emperor Min felt satisfied and wrote an imperial edict to Duan Wenche for praise. After rewarding a lot of things, he asked him to go back to Beijing to visit relatives and recuperate. By the way, the court officials in the capital saw what a loyal minister was.
However, Duan Wenche knelt down and thanked Tian's kindness and asked someone to send another memorial to Emperor Min, saying that he would not return to the capital without recovering all the lost land in one day.
When Duan Wenche's memorial came to Emperor Min, Duke Lu also packed up and handed over the sign to enter the palace. He found Emperor Min to express his loyalty, and moved Emperor Min so much that he finally gave Duan Guo Gong four golden big words "Loyalty to the Lord and Patriotic" to Duan Wenche. Only then did Duan Wenche's memorial be approved, Duan Wenche's name was a great general in Zhenyuan, and he approved him to build a city in the northwest, and the beginning of Yucheng.
In the next ten years, Yucheng developed step by step. Although Duan Wenche recovered the city and lost land that was taken away, he still could not stop the barbarians from time to time invasion. In the past ten years, he only returned to the capital twice, and each time Emperor Min personally took someone to leave. The friendship between the king and the minister was extremely deep.
The Duke of Lu Guo also transformed into a bare-handed family in the capital.
In the thirteenth year of Zhenyong, Emperor Min was seriously ill and died on ten days, and the whole country was mourning.
Duan Wenche learned the news and wanted to return to the capital, but it happened to be the barbarians invading and could only stay in the northwest.
March later, news came from the capital that the prince Xiao Chong disappeared on the day of Emperor Min's grand ceremony. In order to stabilize the situation, the ten-year-old King Yong Xiao Song was forced to succeed to the throne and become emperor, and the country name remained unchanged.
Duan Wenche suddenly stopped wanting to return to the capital after learning that Emperor Sheng succeeded to the throne and shrank to the northwest. No matter how many times Emperor Sheng issued an imperial edict, he always made various excuses to refuse without stepping into the capital again. The Duke Lu's Mansion also changed its former momentum, restrained silently, stood quietly in the capital, staring at everything behind the palace wall.
In the fifteenth year of Zhenyong, there was news among the people that the prince Xiao Chong was not missing at that time, and there were rumors that someone had seen the traces of the prince in the northwest area.
However, no one can confirm such news.
Everything is like a false illusion. Everyone is watching, but no one dares to expose it.
However, since the fifteenth year of Zhenyong, General Zhenyuan's mansion began to recruit new recruits and raise their disciples, which attracted many officials in the court to look here!
