I want to know you and live a long life. ------Han Yuefu "Shangxie"
It is said that Chen Long was no match for Zhang Ning's cheating, so for the sake of Tao Hua's injury, he had to acquiesce to Zhang Ning's following. With this big time bomb sitting next to him, Chen Long drove back to Huang Gai's Mansion in fear. Zhang Ning got into the carriage and untied the two unconscious people, then sat carelessly next to Tao Hua. Passing by the ambush site set up in advance along the road, Chen Long caught a glimpse of Zhou Buyi poking his head there. Chen Long quickly raised his finger to make a silent gesture and waved for them to retreat quickly.
The lights in Huang Mansion were brightly lit late at night. Huang An and Wang were restlessly waiting for Huang Gai and Tao Hua to return. When they heard the carriage entering the compound, they all stood up and came out to greet them. Chen Long was pushing Huang Gai, who was like a dead pig, out of the car. Huang An quickly ordered his helpers to carry it over. Chen Long was afraid that they would be anxious, so he said, "It's okay for me to be imprisoned. I'll wake up when the medicine wears off." Then Huang An asked his men to carry it over. Huang Gai carried him back to the bedroom, and Mrs. Wang hurriedly followed. Chen Long took Peach Blossom out again and carried it on his back. Huang An saw that Peach Blossom was fine and was about to ask for details when he suddenly saw a person coming out of the carriage and another person walking out.
This little girl conjured up a gauze hat from nowhere, covering her head with dark clouds. The heavy gauze on her face gave her a strange look, and her features could not be seen clearly in the dark night. Chen Long remembered Zhang Ning's preset identity, and thought that she was a suitable girl. He said to Huang An, who was speechless, "This is the girl I specially invited to treat Taohua's poisonous injuries. Her name is Mei Niang." Carrying the peach blossom on his back, he went straight to his bedroom. Zhang Ning snorted softly. Seeing the look in Ambassador Chen Long's eyes, Huang An knew it was not appropriate to ask any more questions now and quickly greeted Mei Niang warmly. Zhang Ning ignored him and followed Chen Long directly. Huang An remembered that he had to arrange a bedroom for the girl, and hurriedly called the maids to prepare bedding. He went to Huang Gai's place to change for Wang, and Wang hurried to Taohua's side.
Not to mention the chaos in the Huang Mansion, let's just say that Chen Long carried Taohua back to the bedroom and placed her on the couch. Taohua was still unconscious, and she didn't know how the poison in her body was. Zhang Ning came up behind him in a big way. Chen Long grabbed him and said with an eyebrow: "Hurry up and show Taohua, stop playing tricks." Zhang Ning shook off Chen Long's big hand and said calmly. : "The poison must be removed slowly, don't rush it. If you act arrogant to me, a doctor, I won't treat you well." Chen Long was so angry that his mouth was filled with smoke, but he was helpless.
Outside the door, Mrs. Wang's voice came repeatedly: "Daughter, how are you..." Chen Long hurriedly welcomed his mother-in-law in. Seeing Taohua unconscious on the bed, Mrs. Wang walked to the couch and took Taohua's hand. , tears immediately filled his eyes, and he said distressedly: "Taohua, you have suffered a great crime, what should I do..." Chen Long was depressed and couldn't listen to the old woman's mother-in-law crying, facing Zhang Ning I rolled my eyes, which meant that it was all your fault. He quickly comforted Mrs. Wang and said: "Foster mother, Taohua is fine. She will be fine when she wakes up. Look, I have invited a girl to come here to treat Taohua's poisonous injuries."
Only then did Wang notice Zhang Ning next to her, she stopped crying, took Zhang Ning's hand and said, "Mr. doctor, you must treat our Taohua's wounds well. She was poisoned for more than one day or two." Yeah, it's always been bad. Why did the assassin he killed that day suffer so much damage? Why did he use such a poisonous needle? I really want to cut him into pieces... If my daughter has something wrong with her, why should she let it go? People are alive..." After saying that, he started crying again. Zhang Ning saw Chen Long fuming beside him, and deliberately took Wang's hand and said affectionately: "Auntie, our family has a secret recipe passed down from our ancestors, which specializes in treating all kinds of strange poisons, whether they are poisonous snake bites or poisonous insect bites. It's a medicine that can cure diseases caused by poisonous bees and stings. It's famous in our area! Otherwise, Brother Chen wouldn't have invited me here! Right, Brother Chen?" He looked at Chen Long with a smile.
Chen Long muttered: "Your family is bitten by poisonous snakes, stung by poisonous insects, and stung by poisonous bees." When Wang heard Chen Long's muttering, she raised her hand and hit Chen Long and said: "Son-in-law, you must not bully the doctor, otherwise I will turn around and let Taohua take care of you. Doctor, I wonder what you call me?" The affection was beyond words.
Zhang Ning took off her veil and said with a smile: "Little girl, please don't worry, aunt. Brother Chen is treating me well. By the way, aunt, in order to take care of Taohua conveniently, I have to eat and sleep with Taohua these days. It should be no problem to observe her condition, right?" After hearing this, Chen Long raised his eyes to object, but Wang could not wait to say: "No problem, no problem, Mei Niang, as long as you cure my daughter, You can live here for the rest of your life, and if you ask for whatever you want regarding the medical fees, I won’t treat you badly, haha.”
Zhang Ning's trick succeeded again. He turned around and made a face at the speechless Chen Long. He was obviously in a good mood and his expression clearly said, "Don't think you can drive me away so easily." Mrs. Wang praised Mei Niang a few more times for her beauty and gentleness. The more they talked, the more intimate they became, as if they were no less than a mother and daughter who were directly related to each other.
Chen Long was so angry that he fell back and scolded Wang for praising Mei Niang for her gentleness. Her beauty was true, but she was a beautiful snake. Chen Long was poking there like a light bulb. At this moment, the maid came up to report that a bed had been prepared in the side room. Wang quickly asked Chen Long to go and rest as well. She and Mei Niang were watching here.
Chen Long went back to his room angrily. He thought of Zhou Buji and thought that this guy should send someone to inform Liu Xian. There was still no way to deal with the trouble in Lingling City tonight. With Zhang Ning by my side, it was really inconvenient to do anything. The promise I made to disappear was also a mess, and I could only take it lightly. Thinking of Huang Gai's place, he hurriedly got up and went straight to Huang Gai's bedroom.
Huang Gai was unconscious and sleeping with his head covered with a quilt. Huang An was sitting on the side and restless, obviously waiting for Chen Long to come over. Chen Long told the hostage exchange process tonight, only hiding Mei Niang's identity. Huang An twirled his beard and said: "Wenlong, please relax. I have sent people to Mr. Liu Xian to inquire about the situation. Now that Huang Gai and Taohua have returned safely, you should go and have a rest."
How could Chen Long rest? Thinking about what he had been up to these past few days in Lingling, his heart felt like a mess. He ordered tea with Huang An and started chatting in Huang Gai's living room. Chen Long remembered his original intention of coming to the Three Kingdoms period and couldn't help but ask: "Father, what is the official reputation of the prefect Liu Du? Whose orders do you listen to now?"
Huang An sighed: "Nominally Lingling is under the jurisdiction of Jingzhou, and the governor of Jingzhou is Wang Rui. However, the counties under Jingzhou, such as Han Xuan, Zhao Fan, Liu Du, Jin Xuan, and Huang Zu, all support their own troops and work on their own affairs. As for the prefect, "Liu Du," Huang An hesitated when he said this, obviously thinking about how to word it: "Wenlong, you have also seen that this person listens to others and believes in others. He is a narrow-minded person. He is lazy in politics and has no ambition. He entertains himself with wine and sex every day, which shows that this person is ambitious and ambitious, but he is just a man of peace." After saying this, he shook his head and sighed.
Chen Long said: "Wenlong has learned from the words of his adoptive father. The public has all the civil and military talents, and only one person is a county official under this person, which is indeed a talent. However, the world is so big, who does the adoptive father think can be called Where’s the hero?”
Huang An said: "I am ignorant and dare not comment. I only heard that along the river, there was Sun Jian and Sun Wentai. He was talented in both civil and military affairs. He was known as the fierce tiger in the world. Gong Fu often talked about his virtuous name and showed his intention to follow him from time to time."
Chen Long heard this and nodded silently. Huang Gai was Sun Jian's confidant in history, and he assisted Sun Jian, Sun Ce, and Sun Quan's family for three generations. I wonder if he will change this history?
After chatting for a while, someone suddenly shouted at the door, and his subordinates came in to report. It was Liu Xian who came in person, followed by Zhou Buyi. When they met, Liu Xian took Chen Long and said, "Thanks to my elder brother's clever plan, Xing Daorong's mansion has been confiscated. Unfortunately, Xing Daorong escaped without a trace. My father has been reported by Liu Ba and knows the fact that Xing Daorong is a Yellow Turban, and has cleared Liu Xian After being released, several of Xing Daorong's cronies in the Internal Guard Army have been captured and are currently under the command of General Liu Xian. They are all safe and sound. Only General Liu Min and Yang Huai are missing." Chen Long briefly explained the hostage exchange process. Once, seeing that Liu Xian was worried about Liu Min's safety, he said, "General Liu Min must have been kidnapped by Xing Daorong, but Xing Daorong didn't know that he had surrendered to me, so he should be fine." Liu Xian felt relieved after hearing this.
Chen Long said again: "Master Liu, when Xing Daorong returns to the Yellow Turban camp, he will definitely incite Sun Xia to attack the city. You should hurry up and prepare." Liu Xian was shocked when he heard this, with a worried look on his face, and asked: "What about you, brother? "
Chen Long knew that Liu Xian was worried that he would not help him, so he left and said quickly: "With Zhou Busuo's help, my second brother can go quickly to arrange the city defense. I am seriously ill because of Taohua, and Huang Gai is not awake yet, so I will only wait here for my second brother at any time." Summon." Liu Xian heard the words and went. Chen Long felt a little sorry for this second brother, but the leader of Lingling was Liu Du, not Liu Xian. Zhang Ning, the bomb, was still with him, and he really couldn't leave at this time. Suddenly, I had a headache again. Should I fulfill my promise to Zhang Ning and leave with my family immediately?
After Liu Xian left, Chen Long finally had time to go back to the penthouse and sleep for a while. However, just as the sky was getting brighter, suddenly loud war drums were heard outside the city, and the sound of horns resounded throughout the sky.
