day 15
Yingdu City, compared with the panic before, now Yingdu has completely returned to normal.
The previous closure of the city was only to capture Mr. Xiong. Now that we have received accurate information that Mr. Xiong has escaped from Yingdu, there is no need to continue to seal the city.
As soon as the ban was lifted, the small and medium-sized nobles breathed a sigh of relief, but they still did not dare to be careless.
Until the day before yesterday, the King of Chu, who had not appeared in public for a long time, suddenly held a court meeting and called all the noble officials in the court to the main hall of the Chu Palace.
Originally, the nobles thought that Qu and Xiong Sheng were going to cause some trouble, but when they saw the upright and mature King of Chu, the nobles felt at ease.
They didn't care whether the King of Chu was coerced to stabilize people's hearts, or whether he had really been in power and was just obsessed with Qu Yanji.
They only hope that the King of Chu will not fall, because as long as the King of Chu is still alive, the Chu Kingdom will not be in chaos.
As for taking a share of the chaos? That is something that is unthinkable. Only the three nobles have this strength.
Among the three nobles, the Jing family and the Zhao family have begun to prepare secretly. Whether they are contacting the army in the fief or sending people to find Mr. Xiong who has left Yingdu, they have not given up on either side.
.
Qu Xie and Xiong Sheng naturally knew their little tricks, but this kind of confrontation was always under the table.
Even if they were face to face, they would not be able to overturn the table right away. They would not have the strength to deal with Zhaoshe and Jingyang.
"This Jingyang definitely knows something."
Somewhere in the palace, Xiong Shengping stepped back and said to Qu Xie, holding the long sword in his hand so tightly that he was sweating.
"This is natural. Jingyang is such a smart old fox. They must have noticed the abnormality of the king."
As soon as Qu Xie finished speaking, roars and roars like wild beasts came from King Chu's palace.
Listening to such a terrifying sound, Xiong Sheng asked with a normal expression: "Mr. Danyang, how long can the King of Chu hold on?"
"At least ten months."
"Ten months is enough to complete the plan. Maybe it only takes five months..." Xiong Sheng nodded, and then asked, "Can you confirm where Xiong Zhong went?"
Qu Xie stroked his beard and said: "The former eunuch Yinmu sent someone to deliver the news that Xiong Zhong has left Danyang. Now... he is probably on his way to Shouchun."
"Shou Chun? Did he go to the Imperial Preceptor to express his condolences? Is this really... throwing himself into a trap?" Xiong Shengshi smiled and shook his head, "I really don't know how to put it."
"Of course he couldn't have gone to find Zhu Ji." Qu Xie explained. "He didn't know Zhu Ji's strength. He probably just regarded him as an ordinary middle-class noble with some medical skills."
"Then what is he going to do in the direction of Shouchun? Shouchun... Shouchun... Yulouyi?!" Xiong Sheng was stunned for a moment, "Go to the Changchun Hospital in Yulouyi to find Poison Saint Jiang Linsheng?!"
"Yes, that's what I guessed." Qu Xie nodded, "So I have sent someone to inform Qu Tian, the chief of the city of Hulou. Although he is just a middle-aged man, if he is prepared, he should
You can catch the opponent."
"How about sending a team? Just ten people will do." Xiong Sheng suggested, "I have heard of Qu Tian's name in the aristocratic circle, and I really feel a little uneasy..."
In fact, Bai Gongsheng was already very considerate.
Qu Tian was famous in the aristocratic circle of Chu State for being able to take advantage of him, but he was also famous for being incompetent. He could be called the "shame of the nobility".
The most typical one is to lead a thousand men to encircle and suppress the bandits of less than fifty people. This is a war that can be won by pigs on top of pigs, but the final result is that they rush directly into the street and lose inexplicably.
This scared the local nobles and immediately asked some big nobles for help.
They thought that the number of bandits instantly increased to a thousand, and that they were extremely vicious and extremely powerful.
As a result, it was not until the army of the nobles arrived that we found out that there were only about ninety bandits in total including the old, weak, women and children.
Qu Xie was silent for a moment, and seemed to be thinking of Qu Tian's glorious achievements, so he nodded and replied: "I will send Qu Fuyan with twenty guards to hunt down Mr. Xiong."
"Master Qu? Isn't it too dangerous? Besides, running thousands of miles has many twists and turns. Isn't it too tiring?"
Qu Fuyan was Qu Xie's son. Although he was young, he was quite heroic. Although he had no achievements, he behaved well in social interactions and had a good skin. In the aristocratic circle, Feng Ping and Qu Tian were the same.
extreme.
"It's good to let him go out and have more experience."
Xiong Sheng was certain in his heart: "That's fine, then Duke Lao Danyang will have to worry about it more."
…………………………
Since reaching a cooperation agreement with Qu Tian, Ouyang's wealth accumulation has reached a rocket speed.
In fact, Qu Tian, although he looks greasy and fat, is really generous with his money. He doesn't care about the size of the bear's paw. He only gives out ten taels of gold, and occasionally takes wolf whips, kidneys, etc.
of.
I don’t know if he will get tired of eating it. Anyway, if Ouyang didn’t have all kinds of medicinal materials and seasonings these days, he might have vomited after eating meat.
Of course, maybe the other party has a gourmet circle, and everyone can communicate or exchange ingredients or something?
Deoxys's resurrection energy accumulation has reached 30%, and he can "grow" a long hand on Ouyang's body, or half a head or something.
The most practical "electric shock" skill can be used twice a day, and the progress is gratifying.
But this also illustrates another thing - the influence of evil energy on this world is growing.
This also means that the "end of the world" may be getting closer.
But Fan Li still came through without any news, which made Ouyang feel unimaginably sad.
After completing the deal with the chief's dog-headed military advisor, Ouyang dragged the two wolves to the hospital.
The number of injured patients seeking medical treatment has increased in the past few days. Although the first batch of injured patients have recovered and returned, the hospital is still understaffed.
"Oh? What's so lively?" Ouyang looked at the carriage in front of the hospital in surprise.
The carriage is not actually luxurious, what is luxurious is the lineup surrounding the carriage.
According to Ouyang's visual inspection, each of the strong men next to the carriage is estimated to have a physical attribute of 1.5. They can be said to be good players. Their strength is not weak, and they are already on par with elite soldiers in the army.
"Mr. Ouyang." Wang Sheng came to Ouyang's side with a bow on his back.
"Wang Sheng? Were you kicked out?" Ouyang looked at the archer beside him, his tone was a bit strange.
Wang Sheng actually recovered from his leg injury the day before yesterday, but because he was thick-skinned and didn't care about other people in the hospital, he stayed in the hospital as he did, sticking to Jiang Yu's side all day long.
Moreover, these two people seemed to be really interested. At least Jiang Yu didn't chase them away directly, which made Ouyang wonder.
It really goes along with the old saying, "A good girl is afraid of having a bad guy".
"No, Mr. Ouyang is like this. Jiang Yu's father has returned to the hospital, and I am still staying there. It's a bit embarrassing..."
Hearing what Jiang Linsheng said, Ouyang saw some clues.
This kid seems to have dressed up carefully...the ebony bow has been painted with good paint, and the clothes are neatly dressed.
I saw that my father-in-law was so caring.
Just when Ouyang was complaining secretly, Wang Sheng poked Ouyang: "Mr. Ouyang, the Poison Saint is here."
"I am the director of the Changchun Hospital. I have met Mr. Ouyang." Jiang Linsheng bowed slightly to Ouyang.
"I've seen the Poison Saint." Ouyang returned the greeting slightly and showed the jade seal on his waist.
This is not Ouyang showing off. It is a symbol of respect for nobles to show their noble jade seals to people of high status.
"Thank you sir for taking care of me these days. Jiang Linsheng is here to express my gratitude." After saying that, Jiang Linsheng bowed respectfully.
The first salute was a simple greeting, but now the salute is a sincere thank you.
"The doctors at the hospital also helped me a lot and played a big role in the purpose of my visit this time. It can be regarded as mutual benefit. You don't have to do this."
Ouyang also returned the gift quite formally, as a thank you for not accepting the Poison Saint.
He spent a few days with Fan Li, and his behavior patterns and work habits were somewhat affected.
Jiang Linsheng didn't hesitate and asked, "May I ask Mr. Ouyang, would it be okay for Mr. Chang Sang to come in?"
"It's not bad. He was eating and sleeping well when I left, but he was a little anxious about certain things."
Ouyang didn't tell what the specific matter was, and Jiang Linsheng didn't ask. The two just chatted casually about some knowledge about herbal medicine, and Ouyang entered the hospital with the people Jiang Linsheng brought.
Originally, Jiang Linsheng's return to the hospital should be a cause for celebration, but the entire hospital was filled with sad and gloomy people.
Ouyang inquired about it and found out that everyone's favorite young apprentice in the hospital had died of an incurable disease in Yingdu.
It is said that this young apprentice learned 80% of Jiang Linsheng's medical skills and 50% of his poison skills, which is better than many doctors in the hospital.
Originally, I followed Jiang Linsheng to Ying this time to see the world, but I didn't expect that what I came back with was just a corpse.
"Do you know this little apprentice? Why do everyone seem to like him so much?" Ouyang asked Wang Sheng in a low voice.
Not only the female doctors and cooks, but also several doctors who were usually stoic were in tears.
"It is said that this little apprentice turned out to be just the boy of Lord Poison Saint. At that time, Lord Poison Saint had not met Lord Chang Sang. He was moody and killed countless people. But the little apprentice was the complete opposite. He was usually kind-hearted. As long as the master did not poison him to death on the spot,
The young apprentice will do his best to save people. This is also the reason why the young apprentice’s medical skills have grown so quickly.”
"He turns out to be a good man." Ouyang was stunned for a moment and looked at Wang Sheng next to him with a strange expression. "Isn't he a greater threat to you? After all, the first thing that comes first is the moon."
Wang Sheng scratched his head naively: "My father was bitten by a poisonous snake before and almost died. It was his little apprentice who saved him. He is really nice. If Jiang Yu is with him, he will definitely be happy."
of."
Hiss - Ouyang took a breath of cold air.
To be able to convince such a jealous person, this little apprentice has gone too far.
