313. Chapter 313 Questioning


When Jiang Zhuguo and Lu Shi saw Xia Mingyue and Zhuang Cui return home safely, they both cried with joy. Their lips couldn't help but tremble with excitement. They gathered around the two of them and couldn't stop greeting them.

Seeing that Xia Mingyue and Zhuang Cui both looked tired, he hurriedly sent them to rest, while Jiang Zhuguo and Lu went to make tea and prepare some food.

After a brief cleaning and washing, Xia Mingyue lay on the bed to rest.

"You have a good rest at home. Magistrate Pei and I will go for a run." Lu Qiyan picked up the egg water made by Jiang Zhuguo and brought it to Xia Mingyue's mouth one spoonful at a time.

Xia Mingyue knew that Lu Qiyan said that his last trip was to suppress bandits, so she only shook Lu Qiyan's hand and said, "Then you must be careful."

She had never had any enmity with the bandits, but the other party tried every means to kidnap her. This was probably the enmity that Lu Qiyan had formed when he led his troops to suppress the bandits.

If something like this happened this time, Lu Qiyan would naturally not let them continue to do evil.

"Don't worry." Lu Qiyan said softly. Seeing Xia Mingyue finish a bowl of light and delicious egg water, he put down the bowl and spoon, "Wait for me at home."

Said Then, he leaned over and pecked Xia Mingyue on the forehead.

"Yeah." Xia Mingyue nodded, "What do you want to eat when you come back? Hmm...how about barbecue?"

"Okay." Lu Qiyan smiled and said, "Add another bowl of noodles."

I wonder if it was because the first meal Xia Mingyue made after marrying him was a bowl of hot clear soup noodles. Lu Qiyan began to have a special liking for eating noodles.

A steaming bowl of noodles with soup and vegetables always feels like home.

It is delicious, comfortable and filling, making him feel peaceful and at ease.

The feeling was exactly the same as when he and Xia Mingyue were together, which made him feel physically and mentally comfortable and difficult to let go.

"Okay." Xia Mingyue agreed, smiling with crooked eyebrows.

The already beautiful face was now smiling like a flower, which made Lu Qiyan feel even more joyful. He kissed Xia Mingyue again and again on her forehead, told her to take a good rest, and then left.

Before leaving, Lu Qiyan asked Lu and Jiang Zhuguo to take good care of Xia Mingyue, and then stroked Wu Jin, who was yawning and preparing to have a good sleep, and finally found Yin Lingyou. .

Yin Lingyou didn't sleep a wink all night because he was worried about Xia Mingyue. Only then did he see that the person had returned safely, and checked his pulse. After confirming that there was nothing serious, he felt relieved and prepared to go back to rest.

"Doctor Yin." Lu Qiyan handed over his hand, "Is this really okay?"

"I was a little frightened, but my pulse is still stable. Just take a good rest and recuperate for a few days." Yin Lingyou said.

"Since I was frightened, do I need to prescribe some soothing medicine to drink?" Lu Qiyan was still a little uneasy.

"No need." Yin Lingyou waved his hand, "Have a good sleep and rest for a few days. There is no need to take medicine."

"Seriously?" Lu Qiyan frowned, "Doctor Yin, do you want to take another pulse?"

Yin Lingyou, "..."

This was the first time someone questioned his medical skills.

If you meet such a person, you will definitely call him a bastard, and you won’t stop until you spray him with blood, but the person in front of you is Mrs. Xia’s husband...

Yin Lingyou explained patiently, "It's the medicine that's three-part poison. Taking medicine forcibly when it's not necessary is a burden on the body and is counterproductive. Commander Lu should understand this." "Of course, if Commander Lu If you don’t care about Lady Xia’s health, then that’s okay. Since it’s a decoction that Commander Lu wants to soothe her nerves, it’s not impossible for me to prescribe one.”

As he spoke, Yin Lingyou went to get pen and paper.

Now it was Lu Qiyan's turn to panic and hurriedly tried to dissuade him, "In that case, just follow what Dr. Yin said and just rest."

Yin Lingyou raised his chin proudly when he saw this.

Can’t I cure you?

Sending Yin Ling back to rest, Lu Qiyan got on his horse and went to look for Pei Chenghe.

Pei Chenghe has already counted everyone and asked Lu Qiyan to take a look.

There were more than 200 city defense soldiers and county government officers in total, while the bandits in Blood Eagle Castle were only a few dozen people according to the scouts Lu Qiyan sent earlier.

In terms of numbers, the county government has an absolute advantage.

It’s just that the bandits are all extremely vicious people. They usually rob homes and kill people without blinking an eye. Their fighting power is much stronger than that of the county government. The hilltop where the Blood Eagle Fort is located is called Blade's Edge Mountain.

Daofeng Mountain, as its name suggests, is famous for its mountains that are as neat as a knife edge. The back mountain is as sharp as an axe. It is extremely steep and has no way to go. Therefore, there is only one way to go up to Daofeng Mountain. There are many agencies on this road.

It’s not an exaggeration to say that one man can stand against ten thousand men.

And when we go up the mountain to suppress bandits, the bandits are in the dark and the government is in the open, which adds to the difficulty.

The suppression of bandits is not optimistic.

After listening to Lu Qiyan introduce to everyone the terrain of Dao Feng Mountain and some of the agencies, guards, secret sentries, etc. he had learned about, the government officials and city defense soldiers, who were originally enthusiastic about suppressing bandits, all looked at each other in confusion. Talk again.

Even Pei Chenghe and Feng Maocai looked embarrassed and felt unsure.

"But there is a solution to everything." Lu Qiyan pointed to the trail behind Daofeng Mountain, "Some time ago, I led people to visit the local herb collectors and found out that there is a very remote trail behind the mountain. ”

"This path was trodden by herb collectors over many years. It is rugged and narrow. If you want to go up, you need to be agile and bold. There is a risk of falling if you are not careful. But if you can rely on this path If the path successfully ascends to Blade's Edge Mountain, we can form a double attack with the frontal attack and catch them all in one fell swoop."

When they heard that there was a solution, everyone's eyes suddenly lit up.

Some people who either have relatives at home who have encountered bandit enemies, or who have heard of the heinous things the bandits have done and are extremely disgusted with the bandits, are all eager to give it a try and have expressed their willingness to follow Lu Qiyan. Climb the back hill.

Pei Chenghe felt relieved when he saw that his subordinates were so enthusiastic, which showed that he had a strong belief in suppressing bandits.

Even Feng Maocai said, "I am also willing to go with Commander Lu."

Seeing the surprised expressions on everyone's faces, Feng Maocai smiled and said, "Although I am not as skilled as you, I have been naughty since I was a child. Climbing trees and walls has never been a problem. When I grow up, I like to travel everywhere. My favorite thing is to climb mountains and watch the scenery. There are many landscapes, including barren mountains and ridges that no one cares about, so for I am very good at mountain climbing. I may be able to give Commander Lu and the others some advice.”

“That’s great. Maybe we really need Captain Feng’s help,” Lu Qiyan agreed, and continued. Pei Chenghe and Feng Maocai discussed the specific offensive strategy together.

After making the preliminary plan and everyone taking a short rest, we set off in the afternoon.

When setting off, Lu Qiyan and Pei Chenghe made arrangements for everyone, dressed up in disguise, and quietly left the city. (End of this chapter)
