"Miss, I will definitely take good care of the general's mansion." Chunxiao's crying voice before leaving echoed in my ears.
The team leaving Beijing headed toward the Yuling border in a mighty manner. This time, a total of six imperial doctors were sent. Xia Yunxian and two colleagues rode in a carriage, and the other three were in the carriage behind.
"I heard that the situation in Yuling is getting more and more tense. There are barbarians jumping over the wall in the middle of the night and breaking into houses in the city and burning them."
The young imperial doctor who had just joined the job seemed a little nervous. The senior next to him immediately smiled and comforted, "That's why the emperor asked people from the Duke's Mansion to escort us all the way. You know that the old Duke often dealt with barbarians in the past. Maybe he will be with us soon." We can make peace."
The old Duke was ordered to bring well-trained elite soldiers, which gave the imperial doctors a little more security.
The journey was long, and the weather became colder as we got closer to the border. Due to time constraints, the large team was working hard, which made several imperial doctors who had been living in Beijing all year round feel overwhelmed and looked extremely ugly.
"Someone passed out!"
Suddenly there was a cry of exclamation from outside the car. The doctors in the car looked at each other and heard that the man who fainted had vomited five times along the way. Even the elite soldiers under the Duke's command did this, and they didn't seem to be that bad. Unbearable.
At this time, Xia Yunxian heard a helpless and embarrassed voice, "Doctor Xia, can you please take your pulse?"
Liang Yuanyi? !
Xia Yunxian got out of the car and saw the young man with a sneer on his face.
Liang Yuanyi thought that he was going to train in the military anyway, so she begged her grandfather to get this opportunity.
Xia Yunxian secretly thought, if Master Liang is here, maybe...
Sure enough, when she saw the pale Liang Qianqian leaning against the tree at the back of the team, she sighed helplessly.
"Qianqian, military regulations are strict. If you are caught disguised as a man, you will be beheaded."
After hearing this, Liang Qianqian turned around and vomited again. After finally calming down, she smiled apologetically, "I wanted to wait until I got to Yuling to surprise Sister Yunxian, but I'm so useless."
It turned out that Duke Liang did not allow her to join the army, so Liang Qianqian disguised herself as a guard and hid in the food and grass that accompanied her. She only apologized to the old Duke halfway.
The old Duke was furious, but now that the matter was over, he asked Liang Yuanyi to watch her all the way and not give her any preferential treatment, so Liang Qianqian was in such a miserable state.
"I have never changed my mind about treating wounded soldiers on the battlefield. How could I miss such a good opportunity?"
Liang Qianqian wiped the dirt off her face, without any regret in her eyes.
After saying that, she clutched her abdomen in pain. Xia Yunxian took her pulse and called Liang Yuanyi to prepare hot water.
"Your period is coming soon, and the long journey is a bumpy ride, so your reaction is a little stronger."
Liang Qianqian's face immediately turned red, unexpectedly early. No wonder her hands and feet were cold and weak these past few days, and she couldn't get excited no matter what she did.
At this moment, a different kind of fighting sound came from the front, and the surrounding area suddenly fell into chaos.
"Line up! Set up your formation!"
Liang Guogong at the front of the team shouted sternly, and soon elite soldiers formed a defensive formation to protect the imperial doctors in the center.
Xia Yunxian and Liang Qianqian were pulled into the team, while Liang Yuanyi took the initiative to draw the sword from his waist and rushed to the front.
"It's obvious that we have to go through two cities before we get to Yuling. Is the battle line already so long?" The imperial doctors all looked solemn, and Liang Yuanyi soon brought the news.
It turned out that several barbarians in disguise were trying to sneak into a nearby town and were discovered. At this time, they were caught up by Yuling's elite soldiers and were engaged in a fierce confrontation.
"Don't worry, adults. They will be caught soon. These barbarians are really cunning. They carry powerful weapons and have injured some elite soldiers. We will need to trouble the adults for a while!"
After hearing this, the doctors felt relieved.
Soon, Qiao Chuan's barbarians were captured, and the team lowered their guard.
The forest where the battle was taking place was in a mess, and traces of bombing could be seen everywhere. The wounded soldiers gathered together covered in blood, and the imperial doctors quickly came forward to examine their injuries.
"It was like being hit by flint." Xia Yunxian looked at the severed limbs of many soldiers and the strong burnt smell emitting from the broken trees. Liang Qianqian on the side finally couldn't help but vomited out again.
She had seen people from the Liang family injured before, but this was the first time she had seen the tragic scene with blood everywhere and fingers and legs hanging in the bushes.
"Why is she a bitch? Let a serious doctor come over and treat my injury!"
A seriously injured lieutenant general saw Xia Yunxian coming towards him and immediately shouted.
Liang Qianqian next to her frowned, and soon the nearest imperial doctor heard the sound and came over, "General, don't worry, Imperial Doctor Xia has great medical skills and is a female doctor recognized by His Majesty."
"Female doctor, don't act like that with me. Do you look down on me?"
His expression looked like asking a woman to heal his wounds was a sign of contempt and humiliation.
"This is not a place for girls. If you want to go sightseeing, go to Jiangnan. Don't get in the way here!"
"That's right, what kind of place is the battlefield? Bah, it's unlucky!"
Other soldiers also echoed, looking at Xia Yunxian with eyes full of disgust, and the increasingly unpleasant insults made Liang Qianqian feel ashamed.
She did not expect that it would be so difficult for a woman to practice medicine to gain the respect of a man.
"Even if I am not cured, I can't let this bitch play with me!"
"Generals, please be patient!" The imperial doctors could not resist this scene. They stepped forward to comfort him, and then came helplessly to Xia Yunxian.
"I feel wronged by Imperial Doctor Xia. Why don't you go back to the carriage and rest?"
There was no trace of anger on Xia Yunxian's face, "I'm going to make the medicine, thank you for the hard work, adults."
How could she give up just because of a few insults? Liang Qianqian felt extremely angry when she saw her looking so calm.
"A bunch of reckless men, who cares to heal their wounds?"
"No problem, soon they will be begging me to treat them."
Xia Yunxian smiled faintly, but Liang Qianqian obviously didn't notice the glint in her eyes.
Two days ago, she received a secret letter and learned about Xia Yunhan's situation.
The defenders of Yuling were all led by General Jiang. Since he intended to target Xia Yunhan, her journey this time would not go so smoothly.
Just now, the generals acted like they wanted to drive her away, which further illustrates the problem.
Thanks to Mr. Huo's reminder in the letter, Xia Yunxian was already prepared. She had someone check the general's background, which was beyond her expectation.
Jiang Xin is Jiang Ruyan’s half-brother.
Her father, General Xia, an old and capable subordinate of her father, met a peasant woman before they got married. As time went by, they fell in love with her and took her in as his wife.
He kept hiding the existence of such an outlaw from his relatives until he later married his first wife, gave birth to Jiang Ruyan and then died. No one knew about this past incident.
After hearing the news that Bai Yujing received that Jiang Ruyan had become very popular in the Hou Mansion recently, Xia Yunxian felt that it might also be related to General Jiang.
