At the time of going down to the imperial court, the three kings Li Chengkun gave the national master a wink. The National Master said yes. They went out of the palace respectively, but they met again in a secret private courtyard in the suburbs of Beijing.
Li Chengkun, the third king, is also in his forties. He looks calm and doesn't say happy or angry. No one can guess what he thinks in his heart.
But the national teacher kept turning his eyes, as if he had many ideas and tricks in his heart.
The three kings, Li Chengkun, made tea and handed one of the cups to the National Master: "you said, where will xiaobaoshan go after it disappeared?"
The national teacher said, "maybe he's hiding in a deep mountain, or he's sneaking back to the capital, waiting for someone to avenge him."
Li Chengkun said, "we should send more people in Beijing. Once there is his whereabouts, he will be killed."
The national master smiled and said, "don't worry, three princes, it has been arranged long ago."
Li Chengkun asked, "don't the family members of xiaobaoshan have to be killed together?"
"Don't worry. Killing Xiao Baoshan's family may lead to speculation and suspicion. Now Xiao Baoshan has escaped alone, which makes it seem that he is afraid of crime and absconds. Moreover, the people sent out have checked and found out that Xiao Baoshan doesn't have much feelings with his family. Even the wife married to him at home is also the widow of his eldest brother. Xiao Baoshan didn't want to marry him at the beginning."
Li Chengkun was relieved.
The national teacher carefully tried again, "third prince, when did our original plan... Start?"
Li Chengkun didn't speak, and the national master didn't know what he was thinking.
The national master boldly said, "the third prince, this matter can't be delayed any more. You see, your majesty is ill now, and the crown prince's position has not been decided yet. If we don't take action, it will be too late for us to compete with the princes at that time. After all, we have made a lot of plans for this matter."
Li Chengkun lost a mouthful of tea. After a while, he finally nodded and said, "OK!"
……
Baoning City, northwest of Daqi south.
This is also a wild land, filled with yellow sand all day. It belongs to the fief of the six princes in Beijing. Most of the people living here are some local aborigines. There is a lack of material here, and the people are disheartened.
The sixth Prince Li Chengyi was demoted here only after he committed a crime in the capital. Few people know what he committed.
But after Li Chengyi came, he really did some practical work. He led the local people to open up wasteland and expand soil, introduced many plants suitable for growing on the soil slope, and planted all kinds of melons and fruits. The people's life was much better.
At the same time, Li Chengyi did not close the door to the city. Instead, he encouraged local people to go out more and foreign merchants to come in more. Only with the exchange of goods can Baoning city be developed.
On this day, a man came from outside the city. He was wearing broad clothes and a hat. Half of his face was covered. He looked like a tramp who had been wandering for several days.
Soon after he entered the city, he disappeared into the crowd.
……
This day, Li Chengyi was patrolling outside. When he returned to the city by car, an arrow suddenly shot into the carriage. The sixth prince was frightened for a moment, but he found a letter on the arrow of the arrow.
Not murder!
After waiting for a while, he took down the arrow and took down the letter. When he saw the signature on the letter, he couldn't help but be stunned.
Why him?
……
evening.
Li Chengyi's palace was not well guarded. Instead of going to bed early as usual, he dismissed his servants and sat alone in front of the case.
Late at night, a figure suddenly flew in from the window and landed steadily in front of the sixth Prince's case.
After that, he saluted Li Chengyi: "Cao min Xiao Baoshan sends his greetings to his Highness the six kings!"
Li Chengyi is about 30 years old. He is very thin. When he sits and stands, his waist is very straight. From his appearance, he belongs to an honest and upright style.
When Li Chengyi saw Xiao Baoshan, he immediately glared and said, "bold Xiao Baoshan, you treacherous minister who betrayed the country and sought glory, dare to come to see me after committing a heinous crime. Aren't you afraid I'll tie you up?"
Xiao Baoshan looked at Li Chengyi: "if your Highness the six kings really believed that the grass people were traitors to the country and seek prosperity, your highness would not let me in, let alone meet me alone."
"The king thought you had saved my life, so he let you in!"
"No, your Highness the six kings is familiar with the character of the grass people, and you are familiar with the character of your Highness the four, so you let the grass people in. Your Highness the six kings, the grass people were framed."
Li Chengyi asked again, "but why did you live when all the 100000 troops died?"
"At that time, the grass people were protected by several subordinates and were seriously injured. When they woke up, they only saw bodies all over the mountains. The grass people didn't want to live any longer, but they thought of their mother and brother. The grass people thought they should go back to see them and apologize with death, so they didn't report that they were still alive, because his Highness the four kings died and the grass people thought they were dead It's a dead man. "
Li Chengyi asked, "since you're going to go back to see your mother and brother and apologize for your death, why are you alive now?"
Xiaobaoshan Road: "When the grass-roots people finally returned home, they found that their mother's life was not good. As a son, I should have done my filial duty before leaving. Unexpectedly, my mother drugged me and forced me to become close to a woman. The grass-roots people were more reluctant to give up and lived for many days. If their wife hadn't been in trouble, the grass-roots people wouldn't have exposed their identity, but I didn't expect to wait for the grass-roots people's after exposing my identity It's such a stigma. "
"Who slandered you?" Li Chengyi asked again.
"According to Cao min's verification, it is determined to be a national teacher." Xiaobao mountain road.
Li Chengyi was silent for a moment.
At the beginning, he was slandered by the national master, so he came to Baoning city. He was not surprised that the national master could do such a thing.
"Why did the National Teacher slander you?" Li Chengyi asked again.
Xiao Baoshan said, "it was strange that the battle was lost, so I suspect someone leaked the military aircraft. This person may be the national teacher. All the four kings are elite iron cavalry, and most ministers support it in the court. If the four kings die and the iron cavalry are gone, the National Teacher party will have a lot less trouble."
"Who is the person supported by the national teacher?" Li Chengyi asked again.
Xiao Baoshan looked at Li Chengyi and said after a while, "it should be the third prince."
Li Chengyi looked shocked.
……
Qinghe County.
Ye Xiaoxian sold out the last batch of snacks and was about to close the stall when she heard Fengsheng calling her.
"Little lady Ye!"
Feng Sheng's face is ashamed. It seems that she has difficulties to hide, and it seems that she has a request from ye Xiaoxian.
Ye Xiaoxian hurriedly asked, "what's up?"
After a while, Feng Sheng said, "young lady ye, my childe... Is very ill. I've seen many doctors, but it's not good. Can you go and have a look?"
Ye Xiaoxian couldn't help laughing and said, "since the doctor hasn't been useful, it's even more useless for me to go. How can you think of looking for me?"
Feng Sheng seemed worried: "I don't know. I always think you will have a way. Maybe you know some powerful doctors."
Ye Xiaoxian shook her head again: "I'm just an ordinary people. By the way, doesn't Li Chengru know Liu Yuanwai? Liu Yuanwai knows more people locally. Maybe Liu Yuanwai can help him."
Feng Sheng smiled bitterly, "how can you count the temporary relationship?"
Probably seeing that ye Xiaoxian would not help, Fengsheng didn't want to entangle more. He said, "since Mrs. ye can't help, Fengsheng won't bother much."
Somehow, ye Xiaoxian suddenly felt a trace of pity.
Although I don't know Li Chengru very well, she can't do it if she doesn't save her life.
"Feng Sheng!" Ye Xiaoxian stopped him and said, "well, let me go and have a look with you, but I don't have to help. I'll have a look."
Fengsheng was immediately happy. Li Chengru had been ill for a few days. He had looked for all the hospitals in the city. Now he has regarded Ye Xiaoxian as his last hope.
If ye Xiaoxian can't help, he will watch Li Chengru die in a foreign land.
……
Li Chengru still lives in that inn.
If you stay in this inn for a long time, you might as well rent a yard directly.
However, Li Chengru looks very rich. There are people waiting in the inn. As long as he pays, the waiter will burn hot water for him. I think Li Chengru won't care about such a little money.
As expected, Li Chengru was very ill and lay motionless in bed. Ye Xiaoxian could feel the smell of fever from him one meter away.
Ye Xiaoxian didn't know if the disease would be contagious, so she took out a handkerchief and covered her mouth and nose. Only then did she get close to Li Chengru.
It was really hot when I touched my forehead.
Ye Xiaoxian asked Fengsheng, "how many days has he had a fever?"
"Three days."
"What doctors did you see and what medicine did you use?"
Feng Sheng said, "the doctors in this city have seen it. They say it's cold. They also prescribe medicine. They're fried, but it's not good."
Ye Xiaoxian doesn't know anything about fever and cold. She only knows that fever must be reduced. In this era, there are no anti-inflammatory drugs, so she can only cool down physically first.
She said to Fengsheng, "you can't wear too much or cover too much for a fever. You first reduce his fever, and then let the waiter bring a basin of warm water up and soak him in a warm bath. I'll help you find a doctor."
Fengsheng asked suspiciously, "take a bath? Just take a warm bath?"
"Yes, you don't have to soak for too long. A quarter of an hour is enough. Remember not to wear too much. You can't cover the quilt immediately after soaking. Just wear a single coat."
Ye Xiaoxian remembers that when she was ill as a child, she took a cold bath and pasted a fever reducing paste. If she burned too much, she would drink Merrill Lynch or something, but there were no such things in this era.
After explaining haofengsheng, ye Xiaoxian goes to find Li Hongmei again.
The doctors in the county are naturally good, but there are many folk prescriptions to reduce fever. Ye Xiaoxian remembers that once Baofeng had a high fever. Li Hongmei didn't know what method to use. Baofeng soon reduced the fever.
……
"What? Are you going to beg that childe Li?" Li Hongmei was surprised when she heard that ye Xiaoxian wanted to save Li Chengru: "Ye, you forgot that the childe put a knife against your neck?"
