Regarding the issue of Bai Yi's ownership, the three major military camps argued for a whole afternoon.
There was no way around it. Logically speaking, Bai Yi was traveling on behalf of the hospital, and she was considered half a member of the Imperial Hospital, so she was now under the supervision of Peng Huan, the highest-ranking official in the team.
But regardless of Bai Yi's own wishes or position, she always sides with Chixiao.
And the Chixiao camp is full of veterans who have been on the battlefield for a long time. Whether it is Qixing or Huxiao, they actually don't dare to conflict with them head-on. They are afraid that they will steal the chicken but lose the rice and lose their own face.
No, facing Peng Huan's threat, Bai Yi directly put forward his own conditions:
"If your two battalions agree to provide food to the people in Zhurenzhuang, I will promise you to send the patients to Chixiao camp. How I treat Chixiao's soldiers will naturally be how I treat your people."
As soon as these words came out, Peng Huan immediately became silent.
Not to mention that Qixing and Huxiao had taken in a large number of refugees, and their food supply was already tight. However, due to Lin Guangchang and others' harsh treatment of disabled veterans, which led to the outbreak of plague in Hanyuguan, they could not keep those veteran.
This is evidence, enough evidence to make Lin Guangchang behead and change the owner of Huxiao Camp.
Even if Feng Xi is gone, they cannot avoid these hidden dangers.
After all, their party has worked hard for two years and is about to encroach on Hanyuguan. They cannot let these losers ruin their good deeds.
"Eunuch Peng, these brothers of mine have followed me through life and death, and I can't say anything to them without saving them. If you are willing, Seven Star Camp is willing to provide half of the food."
Although Sun Wenzhong was unhappy with Bai Yi's threat, he still wanted to bite the bullet and agree.
Some of his subordinates were dissatisfied with his previous assistance to the Tiger Roar Camp. If the disease issue was not handled properly, the Qixing Camp would probably lose its military morale.
Peng Huan also knew Sun Wenzhong's difficulties, and compared to Qixing Camp, which only accepted a small number of refugees, Hu Xiaoke, who tried every means to win over the people's support for the prince, accepted most of them.
There are many people, and naturally there are many patients.
It was okay to say that everyone couldn't be cured before. Now that Chixiao camp has been cured, but their side can't be cured, wouldn't the people's support gained at the expense of those useless people be wasted again?
Therefore, it is imperative to cure the disease, but they cannot be led by Bai Yi.
"General Sun, if you steal needles this small time, you can steal gold sometimes. That woman asked for food today and we gave it to her. But if she wants anything else tomorrow, will you give it to her?"
Peng Huan smiled, threw the whisk directly on the table and said:
"As long as we still need that woman to treat illnesses, she can dominate us. General Sun, do you think this is what you want to see?"
Sun Wenzhong was silent, but Peng Huan took advantage of the victory and pursued:
"You don't want to, and neither does the Sa family. So what we should do is not agree to her, but force her to submit!"
"oh?"
Hearing this, Sun Wenzhong became interested instantly, and Peng Huan's smile deepened a little deeper. It was not until Sun Wenzhong became impatient with the waiting that he said:
"Didn't Lin Guangchang take a lot of people out to look for the princess? This night, a group of people secretly went to the Zhuren Village. Who knows what happened?"
"What father-in-law means is..."
"When the time comes, let's just say that the bandit jumped over the wall when he was being chased, so he killed some useless people. Now that they've seen blood, maybe some people will become obedient~"
Old God Peng Huan sat down on the Taishi chair and couldn't wait to see Yuan Xingzhi become so angry and Bai Yi kneel down and beg him to use her.
This man won’t shed tears until he sees the coffin~
The night was getting darker and the snow was getting heavy again.
Feng Xi had no appetite. She only drank some hot soup tonight and wanted to go back to her room.
In this regard, Ma Wu, the old military doctor and others still suggested that she and Qi Xiao go to live in the concierge and try to be separated from patients like them, but Feng Xi refused without thinking:
"This is a village, and sick people must live in the same place below or above. Besides, I have thin arms and legs. Can you bear to let me run up and down?"
Ma Wu and others had not yet spoken, but Qi Xiao rarely interrupted:
"It's okay, I can carry you."
To be honest, he didn't want anything to happen to Feng Xi, not to mention that he was the one who brought Feng Xi here.
As a result, Feng Xi gave him an awkward yet polite smile:
"If you have more strength than you can use up, you can go blacksmithing. There is a shortage of people outside to clear snow and move bricks. Do you want to consider it?"
Qi Xiao: "..."
Having said that, Feng Xi didn't care what others thought and walked directly to the room where she rested temporarily during the day.
This was specially set aside by Ma Wu and others. There were only two rooms, one for the ten secret guards and one for her and Qi Xiao.
In the spirit of such pitiful roommate friendship, Feng Xi kindly reminded Qi Xiao before closing the door:
"Come in or not, this palace will be closed if you don't come in."
She said this without giving any face, but for some reason, Qi Xiao felt that the depression of being criticized just now disappeared instantly, leaving only a trace of interest that even he could not explain.
The conditions of Furen Village were limited, so the two of them simply took care of the water boiled by Qi Xiao.
There is a bed in the house. Well, there are three benches on a door panel, and some clean tattered quilts and the like. Rounding it all off, it’s called a bed.
If it had been any other princess, she would have been full of disgust and even got angry and threw things...
But Feng Xi lay down in almost a second. When Qi Xiao asked to find a mattress for her elsewhere so that she could sleep more comfortably, she gave him an indifferent look on her back, saying, "You are the only one with too many things to do."
Qi Xiao: "..."
It's obviously a little phoenix, why is it so easy to feed?
Qi Xiao was puzzled, so his peach blossom eyes were fixed on Feng Xi, with a tiny shimmer in his eyes that he didn't even notice.
After an unknown amount of time, the girl with her back to him suddenly turned over and could hear his breath on the small, broken bed made of door panels.
Her skin is whiter than snow, and her eyebrows are like distant mountains. Under the long snowy night, all details seem to be magnified. Especially at this moment when the girl slightly raises her head and her red lips are very close, Qi Xiao can clearly hear her sudden sudden movements. Rapid heartbeat.
One second, two seconds, three seconds...
Qi Xiao turned around with difficulty, and the moment he turned around, Feng Xi, who had been sleeping soundly just now, suddenly opened her eyes.
Strange, what was this man doing who stayed up all night and kept staring at her?
Could it be that he finally had bad thoughts and decided to kill her?
At a certain moment, Feng Xi felt that she had suffered a big loss and she shouldn't have turned around out of curiosity.
She closed her eyes again, but before she could wake up from sleep, the sound of swords suddenly came from outside the door.
She thought she would soon be shaken awake by Qi Xiao and taken to a safe place for refuge.
As a result, the next second, a pair of calloused hands gently covered her ears, blocking out the outside world in some unknown way.
Before going to sleep, she could only vaguely hear one sentence:
"Anyone who disturbs my little Phoenix's sleep should be damned."
