Daming: From the end of Hongwu

Chapter 300 298 - Who Talks Ordinarily in Dreams

Peking City.

When the last light of the sky converged behind the mountain, it seemed that in an instant, the sky darkened suddenly.

In the north in October, the night always comes at a sudden.

Before the lights of Zhen's house were turned off, the housekeeper Ma Ren took the guards on duty to inspect the house carefully as usual. Seeing that there was nothing unusual, he turned around and sent someone to report to his wife in the backyard that everything was safe and sound at home.

Then, with a straight face, he carefully instructed the group of guards on duty, telling them to cheer up and guard carefully.

Zhu Yuying was looking at the ledger at the moment, and when she saw Jin'er walking in, she put down the ledger, and while rubbing her sore shoulders, she listened to Jin'er's report on the incident in the front yard.

After Jin'er finished speaking, Zhu Yuying raised her eyebrows and asked, "Where's the back house? Can the old lady rest?"

"It's already rested."

Zhu Yuying nodded in peace of mind, and then asked again: "Where is Xiaoliu and Xiaoqi? They are both in good spirits now, and I have detained them severely these few days. If you can’t go away, I’m afraid there will be some trouble at night.”

Jin'er chuckled, and looked up at Jin'er curiously even though Zhu Yuying was smiling.

"Could it be that the princess forgot that you asked me to send some food to calm the nerves a while ago. Master Qi and my aunt had a quarrel for a while. After eating something, they have already fallen asleep now."

Zhu Yuying was a little dazed, but after recalling that this happened, she couldn't help but shook her head and chuckled, "Look at me, I'm so busy and confused."

After all, Zhu Yuying stood up and stretched her muscles and bones: "In this case, you can go and tell Steward Ma to turn off the lights and close the door. I also plan to go to bed early today. I am obviously tired these days, which just happens to make girls and boys sleepy." Take a day off early."

Zhu Yuying's words were soft and full of kindness.

However, Jin'er's attention was on Zhu Yuying, who was stretching her muscles and bones. She said distressedly: "Since the autumn harvest, Jin'er has never seen how the princess can be free. If she continues to work like this, how can she do it, the princess?" Otherwise, we will start resting for a few days tomorrow."

"No, compared to the county horse, I'm not so tired." Zhu Yuying shook her head and said with a smile.

Seeing that Zhu Yuying didn't listen to his advice, Jin'er muttered sullenly: "When the princess comes back and sees that the princess has lost so much weight, I will definitely tell the princess that the princess didn't listen to Jin'er's advice."

"what."

Zhu Yuying looked at Jin'er with interest: "You girl actually learned how to use the county horse to suppress me."

Jin'er was not afraid of Zhu Yuying, so she raised her head proudly.

This action immediately provoked Zhu Yuying to laugh, and she stepped forward and patted Jin'er on the head: "Okay, you won, and I will rest for a day tomorrow, and I can also ask the doctor to come over and give me two prescriptions." A prescription, my shoulders are so sore these days."

Jin'er smiled instantly, and then happily went out to tell the butler to turn off the lights and rest.

Zhu Yuying shook her head amusedly.

In fact, she didn't want to be so tired, but these days she didn't know why she wanted Zhen Wu, she thought so hard, she even went to the palace several times in a row, wanting to know when the army would come back.

But she heard what Zhu Gaochi meant, and there was still no sign of Dajun's return. If it continues like this, it would be good to be back before this year. Zhu Yuying counted the days in disappointment, but the more she counted, the more she missed her. Things to do, so as to divert some attention and reduce the pain of lovesickness.

But lovesickness is hard to get rid of, and the effect of this approach is obviously not very useful.

Especially tonight, when Zhu Yuying was about to fall asleep, she talked about Zhen Wu with Jin'er again, which caused her previously suppressed lovesickness to rebound even more fiercely, not only made her toss and turn, even when she fell asleep in a daze Afterwards, Zhen Wu followed into her dream.

In the dream, Zhu Yuying coquettishly talked with Zhen Wu about various things at home, and said that she was tired of the family these days, which made Zhen Wu dote on her and made her happy trembling.

The most beautiful thing in this world is to be with the person you like.

Zhu Yuying experienced this kind of beauty, and was obsessed with it and couldn't extricate herself.

But at some point, the scene in her dream slowly shifted to a hot spring village in Changping for unknown reasons. The whole family went out together, enjoying the snow and soaking in the hot springs happily. When everyone was extremely happy, Zhen Wu didn't know what happened, but suddenly changed his appearance.

Zhen Wu, who was originally dressed in casual clothes, suddenly turned into bright armor.

Zhen Wu looked at Zhu Yuying tenderly.

Zhu Yuying was curious to ask Zhen Wu why she had to wear armor when she came to play, but before she could ask, she was surprised to see the blood on Zhen Wu's armor bit by bit. In a short period of time, his whole body was covered with blood.

And Zhen Wu, who was originally brave, suddenly became extremely weak and embarrassed, as if he would die in an instant.

Zhu Yuying's heart seemed to be pierced by countless sharp needles suddenly, her whole body began to shrink from the pain, she cried out immediately, then ran to Zhen Wu's side, and hugged Zhen Wu tightly.

"What's going on, why did it suddenly become like this?"

Zhen Wu looked at Zhu Yuying and didn't speak.

Zhu Yuying said alone: ​​"My husband, don't be afraid, Yuying is here, and Yuying will call you a doctor."

"Doctor~"

"Doctor~"

……

Zhu Yuying yelled hoarsely in her dream, but no matter how much she yelled, she couldn't get any response. She could only cry desperately, but crying and crying, I don't know how long it took, there was a little movement in reality, It woke up Zhu Yuying who was in a nightmare.

She sat up abruptly from the bed, dressed heavily, her whole body seemed to be fished out of the water, covered in dense sweat.

"Princess, princess..."

Jin'er's anxious voice came from outside.

Zhu Yuying stabilized her mind: "Jin'er, what's wrong? Is something wrong?"

At this moment, Jin'er's voice unconsciously turned into tears: "Young master suddenly developed a high fever at night, the fever is very serious..."

Not finished yet.

Jin'er heard the sound of Zhu Yuying stumbling out of bed in the back room, and soon, Zhu Yuying opened the door of the back room, and asked in panic, "What did you say?"

Seeing Zhu Yuying like this, Jin'er burst into tears immediately: "Princess, the young master has a high fever."

Zhu Yuying fell down as soon as her whole body went limp, she said in a panic, "Quick, help me to have a look."

The child was taken by his wet nurse Ye Shi today, and Ye Shi is the youngest daughter of Zhu Yuying's wet nurse Ye Nanny, when Zhu Yuying hurried over, Ye Nanny was scolding Ye Shi sternly.

"How did you take care of the young master? You are fine during the day, but why did you have a high fever at night? Let me tell you, if there is something wrong with the young master, don't think about getting well again in the future."

"Mother, I really don't know what's going on, the young master still laughs with me before going to bed." Ye's face was full of tears.

Seeing Ye Shi's appearance, Ye Momo's heart ached, but she still gritted her teeth and said fiercely: "Could it be that you were negligent at night? Let the young master catch a cold? If that's the case, mother will not spare you."

When Mrs. Ye heard what Ye Momo said, she burst into tears and cried: "Mother, I am also the mother of two children, how could I be negligent in this kind of matter, the princess and the county horse are just like this!" A child, even if I neglect my own child, I will never neglect the young master."

……

Zhu Yuying heard the conversation between Ye's mother and daughter, but she didn't care about them at all at the moment, she just kept urging people to call for a doctor.

Soon, the doctor came in a hurry, and hurried into the house to treat the young master.

Zhu Yuying looked at the doctor's deep frown from time to time, and her heart trembled. After she came here, she touched her son's head. It was as hot as frying an egg. Such a fierce fever, even an adult did not see it. Gotta get through it.

After the doctor read it, he came to the conclusion that Zhu Yuying had guessed that the condition was extremely dangerous. While taking out the needle, the doctor told Zhu Yuying that he would use acupuncture to control the child's condition first.

Only when the condition is under control can we find a way to reduce the fever.

Zhu Yu nodded again and again, and led everyone out of the way so that the doctor could do what he wanted.

The doctor didn't talk nonsense, and moved his hands and feet quickly.

Zhu Yuying watched the needles being stuck on the child one by one, and felt as if the needles were being stuck in her heart. She prayed in her heart, Xiao Sanyue must be strong, and we still have to wait for the father's return together, Xiao San Yue also doesn't have a name yet, we can't just come to this world for nothing.

Thinking about it, Zhu Yuying didn't know why, but the bloody image of Zhen Wu in the dream flashed in her eyes again, which made Zhu Yuying's blood surging, her eyes darkened, and she passed out.

……

But at this moment, far away in Shandong Province, in a village forty miles away from Dongchang City, Zhen Wu fell into a coma, and a mouthful of blood gushed out from the corner of his mouth.

Seeing this, Cao Xiaoman was in a hurry, but he didn't know how to treat him. Apart from treating Zhen Wu's trauma briefly and sprinkling some golden sore medicine, he could only be dry and anxious.

He ran around the village frantically with Zhen Wu on his back, looking for the doctor, but in the quiet village, because of the chaos of the war, there was no one there, so how could he find the doctor.

Before, they were chased all the way here from the battlefield outside Dongchang City. From 4000 people, they were scattered from time to time, and from time to time there were people standing in the back to block the enemy. Now there are only five or six people around. Avoiding the sight of the chasing soldiers.

Cao Xiaoman didn't know the specific outcome of the war, and he didn't care about it either. He just wanted to find someone to save Zhen Wu.

One of the general banners under him directly under the Hundred Households Team said at this moment: "Qianhu, most of the villages in Shandong have fled. We can't find a doctor in the village. According to my subordinates, it's better for us to go directly to the mountains to try our luck." , I just saw a stretch of mountains a few miles ahead, there must be many people hiding in it, as long as we find the people, we will definitely be able to find the doctor."

Cao Xiaoman's eyes lit up: "Then what are you waiting for, let's leave quickly, the right general's injury can't be delayed any longer."

Afterwards, the few of them took Zhen Wu and headed towards the mountain at the fastest speed.

As soon as they entered the mountain, several people immediately dispersed, trying to find a place for the people to take refuge as quickly as possible.

These days, the common people avoid wars and are unwilling to migrate. Most of them hide in the mountains. Generally speaking, both sides of the war will not go to the mountains to search for people. When the war is over, these people will return to their homes again, build their homes, and work hard to make a living. .

Therefore, often after the common people fled into the mountains, their tracks would not be particularly hidden.

This caused Cao Xiaoman and the others to find a spacious cave where the common people took refuge without searching for a long time.

A group of sallow-faced and emaciated civilians saw a few sturdy soldiers covered in blood rushing in, hugged each other in fright, and watched Cao Xiaoman and the others vigilantly.

Cao Xiaoman didn't have time to chat with them, so he asked directly, "Which of you is a doctor?"

None of the people spoke.

Looking at the vigilant eyes of these people, Cao Xiaoman knew that it was useless to explain to them. With a wave of his hand, they started looking for it by themselves.

soon.

Cao Xiaoman saw a medicine box next to a person, and there were some herbs beside him. Needless to say, this person must be a doctor. Cao Xiaoman knelt down without saying a word.

"I beg the doctor to save our general, as long as the doctor saves us, we will definitely not commit any crimes, and we will thank you with great courtesy afterwards."

The other soldiers, except the one carrying Zhen Wu on their backs, followed Cao Xiaoman and knelt down with a plop. They all looked at the doctor with red eyes, and said in a choked voice, "Please save our general, doctor."

The doctor was originally nervous about finding a doctor as soon as Cao Xiaoman and others came in, but now seeing that he just wanted him to diagnose and treat patients, he was relieved.

He glanced at the sturdy soldiers kneeling in front of him, swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and said weakly, "Let me see the wounded first."

When Cao Xiaoman and the others heard this, their expressions were overjoyed, and they quickly placed Zhen Wu beside the doctor, and several soldiers held up torches to help the doctor light up.

The doctor inspected it carefully, shook his head at Cao Xiaoman with a bitter face, and said, "Don't blame me, generals, the little one is really limited in ability, and the wounded hurt the heart. It would be fine if it was sent early, but now the little one is really powerless."

"You fucking fart."

Cao Xiaoman became anxious immediately, and his voice rang like a Hong Zhong in the cave: "Our right general is the most physically fit in the entire army, how could he be killed with just a few guns, I think you must be a treacherous person who refuses to rescue him I tell you, if you can't save your motherfucker, I will chop off your head with a knife, and then smash your head to pieces."

The doctor immediately shivered in fright. He looked at the murderous Cao Xiaoman, and without thinking, he said quickly: "I really didn't talk nonsense, it's because my ability is limited, but you generals calm down, I know who can do it." save him."

"Who?" Cao Xiaoman shouted angrily.

The doctor quickly pointed in the direction and said: "There is a manor three miles away. There is a Taoist temple on the hill next to the manor. It is a Taoist temple handed down by Mr. Danxi's apprentice. The master of the temple has medical skills that are incomparable to ordinary people."

After saying this sentence, the doctor was afraid that Cao Xiaoman would not know who Mr. Danxi was, so he hurriedly added another sentence: "Mr. Danxi is our master of medicine, and his heirs must be able to treat this general's injuries with ease."

Cao Xiaoman glanced at the doctor suspiciously, seeing that the doctor's expression did not seem to be fake, he waved his hand and whispered a few words in the ear of a soldier, telling him to keep an eye on the place not far away, not to let the doctor slip away, and then he carried his back He got up Zhen Wu and led the people towards the place the doctor said.

Along the way, Cao Xiaoman was very worried.

He was really afraid that Zhen Wu would be surprised.

Fortunately, the doctor did not lie. They did see a manor along the way, and then Cao Xiaoman and the others lifted their spirits and began to climb the hill.

The hill is not big, but there is only one way to climb it.

Not long after they walked along the road, they saw a Taoist temple. Everyone cheered up immediately, rushed over, and began to knock on the door.

But what they didn't expect was that when the door opened, a group of strong men rushed out of the Taoist temple with weapons in hand, and surrounded them.

Cao Xiaoman and the others were shocked.

At this moment, a clear female voice came from behind the group of strong men.

"What a group of defeated soldiers who don't know how to live or die, dare to harass my master's Taoist temple. Fortunately, I, Zhang Roujia, stay in the temple today, and it happens to be your unlucky luck. See if I don't take you and send you to the military camp."

As the female voice gets closer.

Cao Xiaoman took a closer look at this moment, and his thought was familiar, but he didn't have time to think about it now, and he didn't want to conflict with this group of people, so he explained: "Girl, don't get me wrong, we don't have any malicious intentions, we are here to seek medical treatment. , a doctor introduced us that there are experts here who can heal my general's wounds."

"Seek medical attention?"

Cao Xiaoman nodded quickly.

Zhang Roujia walked over, rolling her eyes, seeing that Cao Xiaoman was indeed carrying a person on her back, she became curious for a moment, she was always curious and active, and she wanted to join in the excitement when she saw it. This situation is naturally unbearable.

She gestured to a strong man with her eyes, and let her take a look at the torch.

At the same time, she said proudly: "My master is indeed an expert, but do you think I am a medical center here? If it is a cat or a dog, my master will treat it, isn't it too..."

Before he finished speaking, the brightness of the torch shone on Zhen Wu's face, and the orange light clearly illuminated his frowning and painful appearance.

Zhang Roujia let out an "ah" in surprise.

How... how... is it him?

Isn't he the brave and incomparable general of the king of Yan, the majestic Yong'an county horse?
How did you end up in this situation? !
