Chapter 138: Grab her, but also grab her back
The maid lifted the curtain and Xiangying walked straight in.
The smell in the room was turbid and unpleasant. The servant had just collected a puddle of vomit and took it out from Xiangying's side.
She frowned slightly.
The entire room was covered by heavy curtains.
Lying on the bed was the sallow-looking city guard Mr. Li.
The torture for many days had made him extremely thin.
The bed was surrounded by servants, and the doctor was kneeling on the floor.
Mr. Li's eyes were like two emotionless pebbles.
After looking at Xiang Ying sadly, he said: "I have been suffering from this strange disease since I came to the Western Zhou Dynasty."
"I heard that you are the eldest princess of the Western Zhou Dynasty. That's good. Zhao Yushi is your subject of the Western Zhou Dynasty. She put my youngest son to death, and now I can't even cure my illness. Since you are the eldest princess, you can take the place of Let me treat you!”
"It's just that if it can't be cured, you and Zhao Yushi at the door will end up in the same fate."
Xiangying stepped forward, lowered his eyes, and spoke calmly.
"I don't dare to treat adults."
"Why?"
"The introduction of the medicine is not clean, so adults will not dare to take it."
Mr. Li's face turned red with anger, and he was about to lose his temper when he suddenly retched.
The servant next to him quickly came forward with a spittoon and asked him to spit out everything.
However, when Xiangying heard the sound of him vomiting, she knew that Mr. Li had really not eaten anything and all he vomited was water.
After vomiting, Mr. Li leaned on the bed, breathing heavily.
"Do you still want to say that sheep dung is useful as a medicine? Zhao Yushi just tricked me into eating this stuff, but he vomited even more!"
Xiangying's eyes were dark: "Sir, please show me the medicine residue."
Master Li winked at his servant, and someone suddenly came up with a puddle of medicine residue.
Xiangying glanced at it twice and sneered.
"Sir, I will give you a new prescription. Just take it as I say. If there is another problem, I will let you handle it."
Mr. Li looked at Xiang Ying up and down with sinister eyes.
“You still want to eat sheep dung?”
Xiangying nodded: "The more you eat, the faster you will recover."
Master Li closed his eyes in pain: "Prescribe the medicine!"
Survival is still important, just eat.
Xiangying walked to the table and picked up a pen to prescribe medicine.
Then he handed the bag of sheep dung he had brought to the groom.
When he opened the bag, he was so angry that the groom almost vomited.
"Do you...do you want to deal with this?"
"If the medicine is not effective enough, will you bear the responsibility?" Xiangying asked back.
Seeing how determined she was, Mr. Li urged: "Stop talking nonsense and get it quickly."
By the way, Xiangying's prescription was also read by a doctor he trusted.
The doctor gradually frowned: "This..."
Master Li endured the smell of sheep manure and looked at him: "What, is there something wrong with the prescription?"
The doctor shook his head: "It's not that there's a problem, but... I'm afraid my medical skills are not good enough. I can't see the efficacy of this prescription."
There are all kinds of herbs in it, those that clear away heat and detoxify, and those that activate blood circulation and remove blood stasis.
But these have nothing to do with diarrhea and vomiting.
Mr. Li looked at Xiangying doubtfully: "Are you sure this recipe will work?"
Xiangying's expression remained unchanged: "As long as you drink this medicine, you will stop vomiting and diarrhea within half an hour. You will feel hungry and want to eat after an hour. You will be able to walk after two hours. The effect will be immediate."
"These are the conclusions I have drawn from my experiments on the water bandits. Besides, if Mr. Li thinks it is ineffective, I will be here and kill you as you please."
Mr. Li thinks it is right.
He threatened viciously: "You'd better pray that the prescription works, otherwise, I will blame all the humiliation of eating sheep dung on you!"
Xiangying smiled, raised her head slightly, and her white and heroic face was as beautiful as a painting. "No problem."
Of course the prescription she prescribed was useless, it was just random nonsense.
Eating sheep dung is of course also fake.
What is really useful are the capsules and drug concentrates that Xiangying stuffed in the sheep dung.
She bet that Mr. Li would never chew sheep dung.
Sure enough, the medicine was boiled quickly, and Mr. Li swallowed a bagful of sheep dung with the medicine soup.
He rolled his eyes at the stench and lay beside the bed wanting to vomit.
Xiangying immediately stopped her: "It will have no effect if you spit it out, swallow it!"
Master Li's eyes were red and bloodshot, and he was forced to swallow hard, and finally collapsed on the bed.
The groom stepped forward: "You can't leave. Wait here. If I don't get better, I will have to settle the account with you!"
Xiangying walked to the table and sat down, with a clear figure and a cold face.
"Of course I won't leave. I have to wait for Mr. Li to get better before I can rest assured, right?"
Xie Chen packed up his things in the camp with a cold expression.
The thin monkey followed him: "Vice general, do you really not care about your sister-in-law?"
Just after Jie Chen heard what Ke Jianjun said, he first gave Ke Jianjun a hard lesson.
He beat him to pieces with military methods and blamed him for letting Xiang Ying station alone with so many people.
However, after the fight, Jie Chen did not go to Xiang Ying.
When Skinny Monkey found him, Jie Chen just looked at him coldly.
"How to find her? She is at the city guard's house. Even if I go now, they will not let me take her away."
The thin monkey was dejected and worried: "What can I do?"
"I heard from my humble position that Mr. Li was very cruel and cruel. After coming to Mangzhou, he first killed three thousand Western Zhou people to offer sacrifices to heaven."
"After entering the city, I found that there was resistance from the local gentry family. He actually massacred half of the city. If the eldest princess fell into his hands, how could she survive?"
Jie Chen said nothing, pursed his thin lips tightly and tightened his jawline.
He glanced at the direction into the city and whispered: "Don't worry, wait until dark."
The thin monkey suddenly raised his head and suddenly realized.
"Lieutenant General, you still have a way. I believe that the city guard will not dare to kill the prisoners at will. We only need to wait until night, and when he loses patience, we can make conditions."
"What are you thinking about?" Jie Chen's voice was cold, as if he was looking at a fool, "It's dark, it's easy to take action."
The thin monkey was stunned: "Huh?"
Xie Chen turned around and continued to pack his things: "Robbing her, I also want to snatch her back."
The thin monkey immediately understood.
Listen, what a domineering sentence! Their deputy general is so in love!
"Go to the hillside and tell Lu Beiyi and the others to start packing. I will bring Xiangying back in the evening and we will set off overnight."
Xie Chen explained to the thin monkey.
"Yes! Let's go now." The thin monkey ran up the hillside.
I happened to see Lu Beiyi and the others cutting down trees into pieces of wood and putting them together.
He wondered: "What is this for?"
Lu Peiyi patted the dust on his hands and said, "The boss asked us to make some windshield boards. Does the captain want to see us for anything?"
The skinny monkey didn't take it seriously and just said, "The deputy general is back. Let you pack your bags and set off when he brings the eldest princess back."
Knowing that Xiangying would be fine, everyone around him breathed a sigh of relief.
Dusk gradually spreads across the night sky.
Zhao Yushi knelt on the ground and turned to look inside the room.
There were servants coming in and out just now, but Xiangying was not seen coming out, and Master Li was not heard scolding.
What's going on?
suddenly!
The closed door was opened, and a servant was carrying a copper basin. It was full of bloody things, and something was squirming.
Zhao Yushi was startled.
Her first reaction was to think that Xiangying had been killed?
