329. The Long Sword(1/2)

It is impossible to actually hang a wallet.

The personal soldiers mentioned this just to remind General Liu. A person who could not be offended came with the commander of the Jinyiwei.

Thinking of the various "experiences" in Pingzhou and Yongzhou and even Taijing, Liu Dan's face turned dark and blocked his chest in one breath, but he was unable to get angry.

No matter whether Meng Qi is an enemy or a friend, he can't beat him or run away, so he can only get used to it. What if he can turn against him?

Liu Dan took a deep breath, and the original intention was to calm down, and then his face was frightened by the smell of Gong Fang.

——There are a lot of people who have had diarrhea recently.

Liu Dan had a sudden inspiration. Isn’t there a magic doctor Mo around Meng Qi? Maybe there is a prescription for treating the environment and the local environment?

Thinking of his suffering brothers, Liu Dan was immediately cheered up and with joy from the bottom of his heart, he was ready to welcome the "guest".

As a result, he was dragged by his personal soldiers after walking for less than two steps.

"General, you have to change your clothes."

How can you see someone with a stinking body?!

Anyone who has wealth and no shortage of servants has the habit of going to Gongfang to change clothes. So Shanggongfang is also called Changfang. Liu Dan is a rude man who leads the army. He has been stumbled and rolled in the mud and water for many times. Of course, he doesn't pay attention to this kind of etiquette.

But now he has something to ask for. Liu Dan glared at his personal soldiers, turned his head and walked to the bedroom to look for clothes.

When General Liu changed his clothes and put on his armor, he appeared with his personal soldiers in all directions, he was shocked to find that the person he was looking for was not there.

There were only three people sitting in the huge hall.

That's all, Gong Jun, the commander of the Jinyiwei, actually respected the one who was the last seat.

In terms of official position, rank, identity and status, even in terms of martial arts skills... it shouldn't be true!

Liu Dan deliberately flew over Meng Qi beside Gong Jun and stayed at the person sitting on the first chair on the east side.

The man was wrapped in a black cloak, his thin body was almost buried in a chair, buried his head, and could not see his face clearly.

General Liu's mind buzzed, and what subconsciously touched the sword was the gloomy aura on the man's body, as if he was crawling out of the corpse mountain, and it was no longer a murderous intent but a death intention.

Liu Dan had seen such a person in Qiuling County. After the strong earth was moving, the surviving people stood up from the body of their blood relatives and were driven away from their hometown by the fire. Such a despair lingered around them.

I suddenly changed and had nothing, but I still had to continue to live and question God's injustice.

"cough."

Liu Dan withdrew his hand and coughed vigilantly to remind himself that he was here.

The man suddenly raised his head, his eyes blank, as if he had just come back to his senses.

General Liu couldn't help but open his mouth wide and even took a step back.

"you……"

Why does this face look like Emperor Yongchen?

Meng Qi had expected this. He looked at Liu Dan with a look of scaring his wallet, and his eyes slipped to Liu Dan's belt.

——Oh, only a sabre is worn, no wallet.

Gong Jun forced his eyes to open his eyes, and looked at Liu Dan's frightened look, and felt particularly sympathetic because he had experienced it.

However, the palace commander knew a lot of royal secrets. The former crown prince, now Emperor Yongchen, said something that he said when he was killing the monarch, not only the ministers, but even them heard it. Therefore, he soon thought that this person who looked like Emperor Yongchen must be the missing prince.

——The prince who was almost killed by the late emperor, and was taken away by the Ning family and kept in the Buddhist temple.

To put it in detail, it is normal that he is a legitimate brother of the same father and mother as Emperor Yongchen.

In fact, the facial features in front of him are more female-like. He was originally different from Emperor Yongchen's spirit and temperament, and even if he is similar, he would not be immediately connected.

However, Emperor Yongchen was seriously ill and had been weak for a long time, and his sorrow was hard to resolve. Yan Cen suffered a major change and even lost his habit of dodging and looking at people. Once he came to his senses, the decadent and empty space would be swept away, the corners of his eyes were tense, and his eyes were like sharp blades, which seemed to penetrate people's hearts.

All kinds of coincidences made the two brothers look more and more like.

Gong Jun and the Jinyiwei were frightened in the first round, and it was Liu Dan's turn now.

Since General Liu's personal soldiers did not have the chance to meet the saint, they could not empathize with Liu Dan's inner surprise. Seeing that the situation was wrong, they quietly kicked Liu Dan's boots from behind.

Liu Dan suddenly came back to his senses, pretending to be fine, and looked around, and smiled: "It seems that Commander Gong is capable of doing things and will be back so soon. I wonder if this person is—"

"I am the grandson of General Ning. When I was young, I went out to study martial arts in the Buddhist temple. My surname was Yan." Gong Jun said with a meaningful meaning.

Liu Dan nodded and was about to call him, but suddenly his mind was paused.

The other surname is the grandson, and the old general Ning clearly had only one daughter and died early.

Liu Dan's face was confused and twisted. Fortunately, he had been in the officialdom for many years, and saw Gong Jun's secretive look, he suppressed his surprise. No matter him, even if the emperor had half-brothers, the cuckold was not him.

"Yan... Master Yan, please." Liu Dan squeezed out a smile and waved his hand to let the personal soldiers serve tea.

Yan Cen was stunned by this title. In Baoxiang Temple, the monks called him his name or called him brothers. In Shimo Mountain Village, others called him the second head of the family. When walking in the world and guarding Xuanchuan Pass, he always avoided and did not show his face. He would never stay in front of others for too long. He was so poor that his clothes had to be patched. He never looked like a "private" in his life.

Liu Dan continued to look for the doctor, but suddenly met Meng Qi's exploratory gaze, and his back suddenly became cold.

"...Master Meng, why didn't he see Doctor Mo?"

"Do you really want to see him?" Meng Qi turned his head and asked playfully.

Liu Dan smelled a trace of ominous aura and hurriedly said, "I felt uncomfortable after crossing the river and was difficult to absorb the water and soil. The prescription prescribed by the doctor in the army was not effective, and I urgently needed the help of a miracle doctor."

Meng Qi looked solemn, and the most feared thing about marching was shock and illness.

Shock means a camp roar, which refers to soldiers waking up from nightmares and screaming. If the army is not well-trained old soldiers, but new soldiers, or everyone is nervous and afraid of fighting, they think it is a mess, causing chaos in the same tent and even the entire camp. A camp roar can even cause thousands of casualties.

The disease is naturally an epidemic, and it is equivalent to half of it being scrapped.

The question of whether the local environment is not suitable for the local environment or not is small, but it has a great impact on combat effectiveness.

Now that the rebel army is in trouble, the Jingzhou army cannot count on it at all. They can only see Yangzhou and the northern part of Qi. They will use two-pronged approaches to trap the King of Heaven in Jingzhou. If they lose either side, they will be like suddenly being lame, and they may cause trouble.

"There have always been similar problems in northern troops crossing south and southern soldiers fighting north. How can they be ignored?" Meng Qi was puzzled.

Liu Dan had a bitter face. He, the general of the bandit, fought with one sword at a time. I don’t know how many bandits he suppressed. He often traveled around the country and had his own way of dealing with the situation and was not suitable for the local environment. However, this time the secret recipe was useless.

"We originally wanted to use soil from the north and water from the south... We used to use it like this when we went to other places, but after crossing the river, we heard that there were poisons and epidemics in the water in the south and we could not drink raw water directly, so we caught it blindly."

Meng Qi thought that although the disease was flooded in Pengze area, it was always good not to drink raw water.

"In the city you occupied, you look for craftsmen who make tofu, and then make porridge, they eat some easy-to-relief food these days, especially tofu, which uses local water, which can help soldiers adapt slowly, and some tea soup can be prepared. The severely ill people are separated separately, so I'll go and take a look."

Liu Dan looked at Meng Qi in surprise, almost thinking that the national teacher in front of him was Mo Li pretended to be.

"What are you waiting for?" Meng Qi frowned at first, and then suddenly said, "I am not a doctor, I have seen a lot."

Liu Dan thought, yes, Master Meng was also a general before the establishment of the Chu Dynasty, not the civil servants of the Imperial Heaven Supervision.

It's like a treasure at the moment. As long as Meng Qi can help him solve this problem, he will be willing to give him three purses.

Liu Dan was not a person who was polite, so he left Gong Jun and Yan Cen and left directly. Anyway, he thought that these two guys were Jinyiwei who could not be asked in detail and could not be controlled by him, and the other could not even explain his identity in detail. He would only get closer if he was stupid.

Liu Dan left simply, which made Yan Cen look at him with admiration. Because of the busyness of the Jinyiwei, Yan Cen realized that he was very similar to his brother.

After so many years, it is impossible to say that I have never thought about my brother's appearance, and it is impossible to say that I have no resentment in my heart. It is just that Yan Cen is more suspicious of himself, suspected that he had killed his brothers and made a big mistake.

Although Master Yuanzhi told the monks of Baoxiang Temple that everything is the source law, and disasters are born from the sea of ​​suffering and must not grow in the heart, Yan Cen is still very difficult to see. He has resented many people, but he hated the most.

The time I met Doctor Mo in Shimo Mountain, I solved some of the demonic obstacles in Yan Cen's heart.

It turns out that he is also an ordinary person, and he suffers from ordinary diseases, which can be cured with ordinary prescriptions.

A real doctor really doesn't care about his abnormality. He can see his limb deformities as usual as Master Yuanzhi, and he is not surprised.

Yan Cen took a deep breath and his expression became even colder.

——Master Yuanzhi was still worried about him before his death, so he could not continue to be depressed.

"You have already reported my affairs back to Taijing?" Yan Cen looked at Gong Jun without any kindness. The Jinyiwei had no good reputation among the people.

Gong Jun touched his nose, thinking that if a raccoon slave changed to another younger brother, Emperor Yongchen would not lose.

"Brother Ling always cared about you." Gong Jun said seriously.

Yan Cen was stunned when he heard this, and then showed a suspicious look.

Commander-in-law had to explain: "The incident you encountered when you were born was seen by me, and I never forgot it. Later, I kept secretly ordering people to visit him and once found Baoxiang Temple. However, you had already left, and the monks of Baoxiang Temple kept silent and he had to give up."

Yan Cen sat stiffly, as if suddenly losing all his feelings.

***

After the Qi army crossed the river, they quickly captured two cities for garrisoning troops and storing grain.

There are wooden towers on the riverside side of the fortress, and soldiers are patrolling everywhere.

Meng Qi was suspicious, seeing that this busy attitude didn’t seem to be unacceptable to the local environment?

"This is the navy recruited this time." Liu Dan showed embarrassment.

He was a miscellaneous general, with only a rank. Those naval generals were not very convinced by him. Now the direct troops were ill again, and conflicts within the Qi army were gradually arising.

Even if the generals above are still stable, the soldiers below have already argued with each other. You call me a short man and I call you a sick man. Not to mention the armor and armor, even who can eat first can make arguing at the high place.

This kind of thing is not uncommon in the military camp. If you roll up your sleeves and go to the colonel's field and fight, you will be done. Whoever has the biggest fist speaks, and you will be able to vent your energy.

But now people are in Jiangnan, occupying the enemy city and are still sick in the camp, and Liu Dan is so worried.
To be continued...
