In the territory of Qin State, on an official road leading to Xianyang, a hundred iron knights escorted a carriage forward slowly.
Although the carriage did not have a black flag with the word Qin, the merchants and pedestrians passing by still gave way to the road.
In the eyes of merchants and passers-by, the hundreds of iron knights on war horses were more obvious than the Qin Ziqi that the identity of the people in the carriage was unusual.
When officials ride in cars, in many cases, the size of the official cannot be determined by looking at the Qin-character flag.
But the carriage and officials that can be escorted by Qin's cavalry are certainly not small.
Xianyang City.
At the city gate, more than ten Qin officials were checking the people and merchants coming in and out.
While the Qin officials were interrogating, they looked aside from time to time at several old men dressed as doctors and their guards.
As Qin officials in Xianyang City, they were stationed at the city gate all year round, so they naturally knew each other. The two old men leading the way were the imperial physician order and the imperial physician Cheng of the Young Mansion. In the past, they were the officials in charge of the king's medicine.
It stands to reason that they only obey the king's orders and administer medicine for the king.
Why are you coming to the city gate now?
At this moment, not to mention the dozen or so Qin officials, even the common people and merchants who were coming in and out were all looking sideways, wondering which of the sick adults could actually allow the current King of Qin to send palace doctors, or even imperial doctors, to treat him. Both the order and the imperial doctor came to the city gate to wait.
About half an hour later.
Far outside the city, a group of more than a hundred iron knights appeared in the eyes of Qin officials.
The Qin officials and others who were inspecting the city, and the people who had already entered and exited the city gate, turned their heads to look.
After a while.
The carriage escorted by iron cavalry slowly arrived in front of the city gate.
In the carriage, Uncle Bai quickly opened the curtain, got out of the carriage, and saluted the Imperial Physician Ling, the Imperial Physician Cheng, and the other doctors.
"I have a medical order! Doctor! Doctors!"
Uncle Bai's eyes were a little red at the moment, and then he made a gesture of invitation to the imperial physician Ling and others.
The Imperial Physician Cheng and others saluted Uncle Bai, and then quickly walked onto the carriage with the small wooden box.
Uncle Bai stood outside the carriage, waiting quietly.
Inside the carriage.
The imperial doctor looked at the sleeping Bai Yu, took his pulse, and then chatted with the doctors for a few words. Then he took out a wooden box, opened it, and took out a strip of cloth with fine needles of different lengths inside.
The difference between the doctors in Yangcheng and the imperial doctors in Xianyang became apparent at this time.
Although medical skills have been handed down since ancient times, there is a huge difference between doctors in ordinary cities and doctors in royal palaces.
Following the imperial physician's order, Fuxi's nine-needle technique was used to gently insert several thin needles into several acupuncture points on Bai Yu's body.
Bai Yu, who had been in a coma in Yangcheng before and was rarely awake after that, unexpectedly slowly opened his eyes and gradually woke up.
Bai Yu's face was pale and his lips were chapped. After opening his eyes, he saw several people standing in the carriage. Looking at the clothes of the two old men in front of him, he immediately recognized that they were the imperial doctor of the young mansion and the imperial doctor.
At this time, how could Bai Yu not understand why the Imperial Physician Ling and the Imperial Physician Cheng were here.
Seeing that Du was still in the carriage, the imperial doctor's order had arrived.
With such kindness and kindness from the king, Bai Yu's eyes turned red on his weak face.
"Bai Yu, thank you Your Majesty!"
Bai Yu closed his eyes, and a tear fell down his eyes.
At this moment, Bai Yu's heart was full of unwillingness. He wanted to fight for the Great Qin army again and conquer the six kingdoms as the king. Until death, no regrets!
Inside the carriage.
After the imperial doctor asked Bai Yu and others about their physical discomfort, he already made a preliminary judgment.
At this time, the Imperial Physician ordered and the Imperial Physician Cheng had to return to the palace, firstly to give orders to the king, and secondly to obtain medicinal materials for treating poisons.
Uncle Bai stood outside the carriage and when he saw the Imperial Physician Ling, the Imperial Physician Cheng and others, he quickly handed over their hands.
"Let General Bai Yu rest well to prevent the poisonous energy from attacking his heart. We will return to Pingyang on this trip. Your Majesty has ordered a doctor to accompany you."
After the imperial doctor glanced at the carriage, he whispered to Uncle Bai.
Uncle Bai quickly handed over his hand and thanked him.
Thinking of something, Uncle Bai looked around, and then asked in a low voice.
"I wonder if Shuyu can recover in the future?"
Uncle Bai asked softly, Yangcheng's doctors once said that Bai Yu's poison invades the muscles and veins, and it is lucky to survive.
But Uncle Bai still wanted to hear what the Imperial Physician Ling said in front of him. After all, the medical skills of the Imperial Physician Ling far exceeded those of the doctors in Yangcheng. Just now he was outside the carriage and saw with his own eyes that after the Imperial Physician Ling entered, within a few breaths the carriage was Come Bai Yu's sober voice.
These medical skills may be able to restore Bai Yu to normal.
"The veins have been invaded, and the general's body has been poisoned by blood poison. From now on, he can only rest in Pingyang. No more running around, otherwise there will be no hope of salvation!"
The imperial doctor spoke very quietly to Uncle Bai, bowed his hands, and turned to leave.
Uncle Bai looked at the back of Imperial Physician Ling and others leaving, and stumbled back a step or two. All the hopes he had had when he learned that the king ordered Imperial Physician Ling to treat Bai Yu were shattered at this moment.
The next day.
The carriage, escorted by iron cavalry, slowly entered Pingyang and arrived at the Bai family's residence.
At the gate of Bai's mansion.
The Bai family members, especially the young children of the Bai family, should witness the pale Bai Yu getting out of the carriage supported by the cavalry soldiers.
this moment.
The expressions on the faces of these young Bai children were extremely panicked, as if the sky was falling.
The Bai family's current status is half due to the prestige of their ancestor Bai Qi, and the remaining half is due to Bai Yu who is still in the Qin court.
In the past, the reason why they could be proud was simply that the Bai family still had Bai Yu in the Qin court.
Bai Yu is now seriously injured. As descendants of the Bai family, how could they not understand that this means that the Bai family seems to have lost its last pillar of support.
Bai Yu's biological mother, Mrs. Fan, who had long gray hair, had tears streaming down her face. She slowly stepped forward and touched Bai Yu's cloth with her slightly wrinkled hands. She didn't feel heartbroken, but just murmured softly.
"Uncle."
There was not much to say in one sentence, but it was easy to hear in the tone how distressed the old woman was as a mother that her own son was injured and poisoned.
Among Bai Zhong's four sons, only Bai Yu is her flesh and blood. Among all the Bai clan members, only her biological son Bai Yu has been away from home all year round, leading troops. .
"Mother!"
Bai Yu's pale and tired face forced a smile when he saw his mother.
Then he saw two children, one boy and one girl, aged eleven or twelve, walking towards him with sad faces.
"Father!"
"Father!!"
Bai Yu listened to the words of his children Bai Ming and Bai Gao, nodded slowly, reached out and touched their heads, and looked at his wife with red and swollen eyes.
With the support of his biological mother Fan and his wife Lu, Bai Yu slowly came to his father Bai Zhong.
"Father!"
Bai Yu said.
"Go back home first!"
Bai Zhong did not let Bai Yu greet others here, but urged Bai Yu to go back to the house to rest.
Bai Yu nodded, turned around and nodded to the elderly doctor in the distance, and slowly entered the Bai Mansion with the support of his biological mother Fan and his wife Lu.
Bai Ming and Bai Gu followed cautiously behind.
At this time, Uncle Bai brought the old man forward and told Bai Zhong that he was the doctor of the Shaofu.
Bai Zhong, Bai Yan, Ji and others quickly bowed their hands to the doctor, expressing gratitude in their words. They even asked the doctor to come into the mansion and sit down.
"I still need to return to Xianyang as soon as possible. I can't stay for a long time."
The old man said, and politely declined Bai's kindness. He handed the medicinal materials to Bai, told her to use them, and then left.
Uncle Bai put the doctor on the carriage, took him away, and then returned to Bai Zhong and others.
"Have you ever asked the doctor?"
Bai Zhong looked at his eldest son, Uncle Bai, and asked softly.
Bai Yan also looked at his elder brother Bai Uncle at this moment. If Bai Yu's poison could be removed, Bai would have a lot of money to buy rare and expensive medicinal materials for Bai Yu.
"The poison has invaded the muscles and veins. After removing the poison, you can only cultivate yourself and not run around."
Uncle Bai said to his father and Bai Yan.
Hear the words.
Bai Zhong and Bai Yan both had gloomy looks on their faces. They didn't expect that Bai Yu's body would be so seriously damaged by Poison Blood Poison.
Inside the Bai family's mansion.
Although Bai Yu was treated by doctors, his body was still weak.
In Bai Yu's room, Bai Yu's biological mother Fan, his wife Lu, and his eldest mother Ji were all taking care of Bai Yu.
After Bai Zhong and others came in, they asked Bai Ming, Bai Gu and other juniors to leave first.
Bai Yu lay on the bed, looked at his father and two eldest brothers, and slowly told what happened that day.
"People of the court!"
Bai Zhong frowned slightly, and the anger in his eyes was not concealed at all. Although Bai was no longer what he was before, he was not at the mercy of others.
If they find out who it is, no matter which court official, the Bai family still has connections, so they will definitely not give up.
"Bai Yan once said that all the dead soldiers came from Chu. I'm afraid it has something to do with Chu officials."
Uncle Bai said softly. Now that all the young children in the clan have left, these words can naturally be spoken without worrying about them spreading.
"How did Bai Yan know that it was Chu State?"
Bai Yan asked softly. In the past, when Bai Ping returned to the Bai family, he also informed them of Bai Yan's words. However, he and his father Bai Zhong never understood how Bai Yan found out that those dead soldiers were from Chu.
Uncle Bai looked at Bai Yan and knew that Bai Yu was weak, so he took the initiative to answer his questions.
"I had never been to Yangcheng before, so I was very confused. It wasn't until I arrived in Yangcheng and met General Sima Xing that I realized that Bai Yan's words were probably true."
Uncle Bai said, and then told Bai Zhong, Bai Yan and others what Sima Xing had said.
That day, Sima Xingzai learned that Bai Yan personally said that those dead soldiers came from Chu State, so he bluntly said that Bai Yan must have said so for sure.
Sima Xing then slowly told the story about Bai Yan leaving three bamboo slips beside Bai Yu.
In the study room.
Following Uncle Bai's words, Bai Zhong, Bai Yan and others understood.
In Yangcheng, after Bai Yan calmed down his morale, he did not lead the cavalry northward as he appeared on the surface, but he had already unknowingly taken control of the battlefield situation.
"Father, Brother Zhong, you shouldn't have broken off the engagement in the first place!"
Bai Yu, who was lying on the bed, weakly whispered to Bai Zhong and Bai Yan.
The longer he stayed in contact with Bai Yan, the more Bai Yu didn't understand why his father and Brother Zhong wanted Jun Zhu to break off the engagement.
That boy's clan, the Zou clan, has indeed declined, but the Bai clan shouldn't just look at their life experience and ignore their people. Treating people like this has led to my current situation.
Hear Bai Yu's weak murmur.
Bai Zhong and Bai Yan were both stunned, their eyes full of complexity.
Even Ji, Xue and others all looked at each other and sighed in their hearts.
Who would have thought at the beginning that the young man who came to the Bai family wearing ripped cloth would actually have the courage of a warrior and the talent to fight.
They knew clearly that they had misjudged the incident in Yangcheng before, but now that they learned that the young man led his cavalry to kill the enemy and capture the generals northward to seize the city after Bai Yu fell into coma, this made them understand even more how blind they were back then.
Regret!
Now that I think about it, compared to letting Junzhu marry Meng and Li Si, having that young man marry the Bai family is better than marriage to the Bai family.
"I wonder if that young man is still willing to come to Bai's."
Ji sighed softly. If that young man came to Bai's house, he might have a chance to make amends. After all, Jun Zhu was a man with his appearance and talent, so how could he not want to be included in the room.
Although the engagement has been broken off, if the young man can have more contact with Jun Zhu, the young man will definitely fall in love with Jun Zhu in the future.
"Shu Yu, you have a very good relationship with him. You once asked him to come back to the Bai family often in the future, and maybe..."
When Uncle Bai heard his mother's words, he turned to Bai Yu and said.
Uncle Bai suddenly remembered that Bai Yu had asked Sima Xing to tell Bai Yan to return to the Bai family often.
Uncle Bai felt that given how good Bai Yu was to Bai Yan, as long as Bai Yan was not an ungrateful person, he would definitely come to visit Bai Yu in the future.
However, before Uncle Bai finished speaking, everyone saw Bai Yu closing his eyes and sighing.
Bai Yu knew what his eldest mother and uncle were thinking, and then slowly recounted the conversation he had with Bai Yan at the gate tower that day.
inside the room.
Listen to Bai Yu's words.
Uncle Bai, Bai Yan, Uncle Bai, Ji, Xue and others all fell silent at this moment.
But it's not just them.
Just outside the door.
Bai Junzhu, who originally came here with the soup, was now standing in front of the door in a daze.
Bai Yingxue, who was on the side, listened to her uncle's words in the room and looked at her eldest sister with her beautiful eyes. At this moment, the appearance of the young man could not help but appear in her mind.
