Chapter 151 Stalemate
Chapter 151 Stalemate
Beiling front yard, study.
"My Lord, everything has been arranged."
"Well, be careful these few days! I'll send them away in three days."
"I know!" Ah Shun bowed.
At this time, Qingshan, who was able to walk, came over.
"My Lord, Mi Feng has examined Miss Feng Ling and said that she is not seriously injured. However, he is not sure whether it is the result of internal energy, so he is hesitant to give her medicine."
"Then let her wake up on her own. Let him make the decision on these matters. There's no need to tell me everything."
Lu Chaofeng looked down at the letter in his hand and didn't even raise his head while speaking.
"Yes!"
Ah Shun looked at Qingshan's pale face and said worriedly, "You look very bad. Don't try to be so stubborn. We've already arrived in Beiling. I can handle it by myself."
Qingshan shook his head gently. "It doesn't matter. If I lie down any longer, I'll become a cripple. The forces here are complicated. I'd better stay with the prince."
Lu Chaofeng raised his head and glanced at Qingshan quickly, "Come here."
"Ah?" Qingshan was stunned and felt something was wrong.
"Come and sit down." Lu Chaofeng was a little impatient.
"Hurry up, why don't you hurry up!" As usual, Ah Shun pushed him, but when his palm was about to touch him, he withdrew most of his strength.
Qingshan coughed lightly and said, "Yes, Prince."
Lu Chaofeng ordered him to sit down and held out his hand. Qingshan said cautiously, "Prince, Mifeng checked it out for me and said it's almost done. There's no need for this."
Lu Chaofeng raised his eyelids and glanced at him without saying anything, but Qingshan obediently put his hand up.
He placed his slender fingers on Qingshan's wrist and carefully felt his pulse for a while. "Go back and lie down for another three days."
"Ah? It's not that serious, right?"
"If you don't plan to have children, you can continue running around like this."
"I...ah?" Qingshan, who had just wanted to argue a few more words, was speechless, his face flushed red, and he stammered uncomfortably.
Ah Shun burst out laughing, "Alright, go back and lie down for the sake of your next generation."
"I, I, I..." Qingshan didn't dare to refute Lu Chaofeng, but facing Ah Shun's teasing, he immediately glared back, "You better keep your mouth shut."
"Hahahahahahahaha..." It was rare for Ah Shun to see Qingshan being humiliated, and it was the prince's words that made him unable to help but laugh out loud.
Lu Chaofeng cleared his throat, and Ah Shun quickly shut up. "Qingshan, I know you're worried, but your health is more important. There are still many tough battles ahead. There's no need to rush."
Qingshan lowered his head and sighed, "Yes, my lord."
Lu Chaofeng took out a porcelain bottle from his arms and poured out three pills. The black pills continued to emit a strong medicinal fragrance, which made Qingshan look a little worried.
"One a day. It might hurt a little, just bear with it."
"Prince, I... don't need it?" Qingshan's voice was a little trembling, as if he was afraid of some terrible poison.
"Your vitality is damaged, your muscles and bones are injured, and you've also run around a lot, leaving behind a lot of old injuries. This medicine can expel all the toxins from your body and restore your vitality. Have you forgotten that you took it before?"
Qingshan frowned, "I...didn't forget, but...this medicine is quite powerful, I..."
"Stop talking nonsense. A man is afraid of pain?!"
Lu Chaofeng usually doesn't talk much to his servants. It's only because he and Ashun grew up with him that he worries so much.
"Yes, thank you, Young Master." Qingshan accepted it honestly, while A Shun pursed his lips, looking envious and sympathetic.
Because this medicine is so precious, they rely on the Ningyuan Palace and Penglai Valley to search for medicinal materials, and can only make a small bottle in a year, sometimes less than ten pills.
The process is a little painful, but as long as you can endure it, the new and old injuries will be healed, and your skills will be greatly enhanced.
In his opinion, it is not an exaggeration to say that Qingshan was a blessing in disguise.
Qingshan put the medicine away and was reluctant to leave. Lu Chaofeng waved his hand and ordered him to leave.
"Okay, let's go back."
"Yes, my lord, I will come back in three days."
"Well, I'll have something important for you to do when the time comes. You can just rest easy for the next few days."
"Ok."
Qingshan bowed and left, and Lu Chaofeng continued to read his letter.
Ah Shun stood aside, holding his sword, and asked quietly, "How is the prince?"
"My father has escaped, but the army lost 80,000 men. I will definitely avenge these 80,000 men and horses on the White Bear Nation!"
"We opened a shop in partnership with Miss Su. The secret report said that the response from the capital and Jiangnan was quite good, but where can we buy food now that we have money?"
"My father and his men intercepted a batch of food supplies from the White Bear Nation. We're safe for the next month. Our immediate needs have been resolved, but we still need to find a solution as soon as possible."
"So what do we do with all this salt now?"
"Have our people guard the place strictly and keep a close watch! Never lift the oilcloth at any time!"
"Yes! Lao Jin brought four groups of people to guard it, and not even a fly could get close to it!" Ah Shun said with certainty.
As soon as he finished speaking, someone came hurriedly from outside.
"Report——"
"Come in." Lu Chaofeng stood up.
"My Lord, something bad has happened. Beiling's deputy commander, the one with the surname Song, and his men are fighting with Old Jin and his men."
"Let's go and have a look."
Lu Chaofeng's face was filled with frost, and Ah Shun slapped his mouth twice, "What a rotten mouth! Really."
"Okay, hurry up."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
……
Su Chengnan promised Lu Chaofeng that she would not go out, so she sent the fat secret guard to tell Lu Chaofeng about the note.
The fat man was delayed for a while because he was pointed in the wrong direction. As soon as he arrived, he saw Lu Chaofeng and others hurried out.
"My Lord, where are you going?"
"Why do they all look so hurried?"
He felt something was wrong and couldn't help but chase after him.
Go through the Moon Gate.
All the way to Beiling’s warehouse.
This is the direction of the back mountain of Beiling, which is relatively far back. The people from Tieniu Village who came here before and the refugees all camped here.
The fat man followed Lu Chaofeng and others all the way and saw from a distance that two gangs were in a stalemate with weapons in hand.
"Tsk, are we going to fight?" he muttered to himself.
Lao Jin had been with Prince Ningyuan for many years, fighting bravely in the frontier. Due to his old age, the prince took pity on him and sent him back to the capital to serve as a guard in the palace. However, he refused to accept his old age, and participated in the martial arts competitions held in the palace every year, and he always won first place.
"This belongs to the Ningyuan Palace. You have no right to inspect it!"
"Get out of the way! This is Beiling! We suspect there are contraband items inside, so we must open it and take a look."
"Impossible! Don't even think about it!"
"If you don't let me, don't blame me for being rude!"
The stalemate between the two sides was gradually broken.
The atmosphere is becoming more and more tense!
