I can't afford to mess with the concubine doctor

Chapter 313 Convergence
Qu Lingxu.

A name that made Murong Li gnash his teeth even more.

In just over half a year, my aunt, mother, Fengyan, Qingyu, and grandfather were all lost in the hands of that woman one after another, otherwise I would not have come to the point where I am now in such a complete defeat.

He really regretted that because of various scruples, he didn't get rid of Qu Lingxu at all costs when she was in her infancy. Now that I think about it, I really regret it!
It's a pity that failure is failure. Everything in this world can't be repeated, and there is no regret medicine to buy. What awaits Murong Li is to be escorted to Beijing and handed over to the Ministry of Criminal Justice for deliberation and conviction.

So far, all the rebellions in the south of the Yangtze River have been quelled, and Leng Yuanxun is completely relieved. It was already the tenth day of the twelfth lunar month. In order to return to the capital before New Year's Eve, Leng Yuanxun ordered to quickly reorganize the army, and must set off to return to Beijing within three days .

The soldiers went out for several months and climbed out of the river of corpses again and again. Now they are eager to return home, and their enthusiasm is unprecedentedly high. It only took more than two days to complete all the compilation and compilation work, and the army went north on time.

As for the prefectures and counties affected by the war, Leng Yuanxun has personally ordered the allocation of thousands of tons of grain from the nearby Suzhou Prefecture to ensure that the people in the disaster-stricken areas will have enough food for the winter, and have reduced taxes for the next two years so that they can fully recuperate.

In the past, during times of disasters and wars, the imperial court reduced or exempted taxes for at most one year. Leng Yuanxun’s move is unprecedented. In this way, the common people are naturally grateful for the imperial court’s kindness. .

Now that everything is settled, the only thing that can make Leng Yuanxun worry about is Qingyang's injury, I hope, I hope Xu'er can find a way, otherwise he will live in guilt for the rest of his life.

However, Ching Yang's injury is not good.

Let's talk about Qu Lingxu, when she left the capital, she headed south as fast as she could, in order to see Qing Yang as soon as possible. Unfortunately, Qing Yang's injuries fluctuated from time to time, and she was always in a coma for most of the day. Therefore, no matter how anxious Dr. Ye was, he did not dare to speed up rashly, and could only do his best to take care of Qingyang.

Even healthy people can't stand the torment of repeated high fever, not to mention that the infected area of ​​the wound on Qing Yang's body is still expanding. If he hadn't practiced martial arts all year round and his health was better than ordinary people, he might have died long ago.

Or maybe, he knew that Qu Lingxu would definitely bring Yun Yi to come, holding on to his last breath, just to see his beloved for the last time.

"Master, counting the distance, we can reach the Jiangzhou post station before dark. You haven't had a good rest for two consecutive nights. Let's refresh at the post station tonight." In order not to let too much air into the carriage , Ling Xiao only opened the car door a small gap.

Martial arts practitioners always have better resistance, he and Ling Yun can still hold on by taking turns driving the carriage, but Qu Lingxu has always been weak and has just suffered a serious illness, such bumpy days and nights, I'm afraid it's hard to bear.

In order to prevent Qu Lingxu from refusing directly like before, Yun Yi gave Ling Xiao a wink first, and said directly: "Okay, that's it." After finishing speaking, she turned to Qu Lingxu with a sincere voice, "Master, this servant knows You are worried about Qing Yang, but no matter what, the most important thing to cherish is your own body, it is hard work in this cold weather, if you accidentally get the root of the disease, it will be a lifetime event."

The ancient society was strictly hierarchical, and the most important thing was to respect and order. Although Yun Yi was very anxious about Qing Yang's injury, they were servants after all, and they had to put their masters first in everything. It was a great kindness, if she allowed Qu Lingxu to continue on her way regardless of her health, it would be a great sin.

Compared with cars, carriages are inherently bumpy. Even if they are covered with thick cushions, it will not help. After a day of bumps, they often have no appetite for anything to eat. Qu Lingxu is indeed very tired, so he nodded and said: "It doesn't matter. , let’s rest for three hours, complete the additions, and continue on the road at night.”

"Yes." Yun Yi nodded, but the worried expression in her eyes became more and more serious.

Ching Yang... hey.

Yun Yi's expression naturally couldn't hide from Qu Lingxu's eyes. She pushed the warm Mrs. Tang into each other's arms, and said softly: "I know you are worried about Qing Yang. Counting the days, you should be able to do it in these two days." seen."

It's okay if Qu Lingxu didn't say anything, but when she said it, Yun Yi's tears were about to fall, she didn't want to cry at this time, she turned her face away and swallowed the tears back, but the choking in her voice couldn't be concealed no matter what , "Master, the slaves have been struggling with conflicts in their hearts for the past few days. They want to see him soon, but they are afraid..."

He was afraid of seeing a dying Qing Yang, and even more afraid of seeing only a cold corpse.

"Qing Yangji has his own personality, he knows that the emperor will entrust him with a heavy responsibility, and he will not give up on himself so easily." Qu Lingxu shook Yun Yi's cold hand, his tone was light but extremely solemn, "You believe in me, as long as there is a glimmer of hope, I will do my best to treat it."

"Thank you, master, servant." Yun Yi couldn't hold back anymore, two lines of warm tears slowly rolled down her cheeks.

The weather in winter was darker earlier, and when the group of them arrived at the station, the station had already turned on the lights, and even the gate that should be open on weekdays was closed early and tightly. Ling Xiao stopped the carriage, took the Qu Lingxu was invited in after the customs clearance documents were registered.

There are people coming and going at the inn every day, and the shopkeeper has already developed a sharp eye. Although he doesn't know Qu Lingxu's real identity, it is enough to infer that this woman from the capital is definitely from the clothes and temperament. The relatives of the unusual bureaucrats smiled respectfully and said: "Madam, there are two Tianzi rooms on the second floor. Please go back to the room and rest. After the kitchen is ready for dinner, I will give it to you." Take it to your room."

"Thank you." Qu Lingxu nodded, and Yunyi took out a small but fine silver ingot from her purse and handed it to the shopkeeper. The shopkeeper got the silver, and the smile on his face became even worse. He bowed and said, "Thank you, madam." reward."

Perhaps because of the severe cold, there were only a few people eating dinner on the first floor of the inn. Qu Lingxu looked around calmly, and was about to step up the stairs when the door was pushed open. The figure of the shopkeeper rushed to the counter like the wind, hurriedly slapped the table and shouted: "Where is the shopkeeper! Where is the shopkeeper, come out immediately!"

This is the imperial post station, and the people who come and go frequently are the imperial officials. Although there are many hard-to-serve masters, it is the first time I have seen such a loud voice. The shopkeeper looks slightly displeased, but he still takes two steps forward Ying He said: "Master, why are you so anxious?"

Although the man was wearing ordinary casual clothes, it was not difficult to infer from the frozen bruised face and layers of frostbite on his hands that the other party was not devastated by the cold weather in a day or two, and most of them were soldiers from the front line. Shang’s anxious expression did not seem to be fake, and he only briefly explained: “Immediately prepare an upper room, we escort you back to Beijing from the front line at the order of your lord, your lord is seriously injured, if your lord’s injury worsens due to poor care, we will But I can't bear the charge!"

grown ups?

Qu Lingxu paused, raised his eyes and looked at Yun Yi, Yun Yi naturally guessed something, for a while, he felt all the blood in his body rushing to his forehead, and the next moment, he ran out the door.

If it wasn't for such a coincidence in the world, otherwise the adult in the population must be Qing Yang!
The shopkeeper of the inn didn't know the inside story, so he said with some embarrassment: "Master, it's not that I won't arrange for you, but that all the upper-class rooms and middle-class rooms here are already occupied, so... I can't ..."

Before the shopkeeper finished speaking, he was pulled up from the ground by the soldier by his collar, "Why, didn't I speak clearly enough!"

The upper-class rooms and the middle-class rooms are all gone, so why should Mr. Qing Yang be asked to live in the lower-class rooms in such cold weather?

Looking at the soldier's ferocious expression, the shopkeeper was sure and certain that if he dared to say 'yes', he would be thrown away by the other party, but what he said was indeed the truth, and he couldn't drive away the guests who came first. ...

Just as he was in a dilemma, Qu Lingxu came forward at some point, and said softly: "The shopkeeper, this..." The word Ben Gong was about to blurt out, Qu Lingxu paused, and then said: "Madam Ben wants Just one room, give them the other."

"This..." Neither the shopkeeper nor the soldier thought that Qu Lingxu could talk so easily when he knew that there was no good room left. , wryly smiling and bowing to Qu Lingxu again and again, "Thank you Madam for your compassion, Xiaomin is very grateful."

Let's talk about Yunyi's side, thinking that the soldier would come to report the news first, and the carriage carrying Qingyang must be not far away, so after running out of the post station, he ran away along the road heading south, and he didn't run much. After a few steps, I vaguely saw a carriage approaching, maybe I couldn't stand the bumps, or maybe I thought that it was not far away, and the carriage was not driving fast. Although I couldn't see the person clearly, Yun Yi was sure that it was Qing Yang hurried over, speaking incoherently, "Qing Yang! Qing Yang, is that you!"

The driver of the chariot saw a person rushing out of the stab, and was about to draw his sword to defend, but when he took a closer look, it was a woman, who kept calling Qing Yang's name, he couldn't help frowning: "Who are you?"

Although he knew that Qu Lingxu would come from the capital to meet them, but considering the time, he couldn't meet them here anyway, so he didn't think about that at all.

Although Yun Yi was anxious, she still had reason. Considering that she couldn't expose Qu Lingxu's identity in such a big way, she said simply: "I'm from the capital, Qing Yang, how is Qing Yang?"
