Chapter 176: How can a general, a king, and his ministers marry the same woman?
Shu He sat in the carriage, feeling dazed and absent-minded.
In her arms was little Yier, holding a little tiger. It seemed that she knew something was wrong with her mother, so Yier hid in her arms obediently and didn't say a word. She just touched the little tiger's head and felt the soft fur.
Xiao Yier smiled, as if saying to the little tiger: As long as mother is around, it's fine even if she doesn't talk.
Shu He was in a daze, her eyes kept wandering, not knowing what she was looking at. In her mind, Bei Ji's words kept appearing.
"What do you think about me?"
how is he?
Is he nice?
But why suddenly ask such a question?
At that time, after he finished speaking, before she could react, he rushed out of the yard, leaving only one sentence, "I'm sorry."
What do you mean?
Sorry for what?
How could an internal injury make him behave so strangely?
After she packed her things and prepared to go to the military camp, she found Beiji waiting at the gate in his car.
She was about to ask him what he meant by his previous words, but he interrupted her and urged her to get in the car, not daring to look her in the eye the whole time.
Why does he seem shy? Or guilty?
shy? !
Shu He's expression was shocked, and he suddenly understood.
Could it be that Beiji has developed feelings for me?
can you?
But in front of him, she was a married widow with children! As Baili Moqing said, how could she be worthy of such an outstanding and beautiful man?
"Is it an illusion?" Shu He murmured.
When Xiao Yier heard the voice, she looked up and saw a strange expression on her mother's face, as if she was happy, but also unhappy, with a very complicated feeling.
"Mom, what are you talking about?" Xiao Yier spoke out, unable to hold back any longer.
"Ah? Mother didn't say anything."
Shu He came back to his senses, touched Yi'er's little head, and threw away all those messy thoughts.
It is impossible for her to be with Beiji.
After all, Xiao Yier is Baili Moqing's child!
She was going back to Kyoto for revenge, and this matter could not be concealed for long.
Although I don’t know how Baili Moqing will react then, but if Bei Ji knew about this, he would never have any other thoughts about her!
How can a general, a ruler, or a minister marry the same woman? This is not only a moral issue, but also a bottom line for human beings.
Although it cannot be guaranteed that everyone will do so, at least Shu He can guarantee that Beiji's bottom line must be above this.
Yier crawled out of her arms and asked, "Mom, where are we going? Yier doesn't want to go out. Yier wants to go home..."
Shu He hugged her tightly and asked with a smile, "Yier, have you not seen Brother Nan for a long time?"
Yi'er thought about it and nodded seriously, "It seems so. Yi'er hasn't seen mother for a long time!"
In Yi'er's world, Brother Nan and mother disappeared on the same day.
Hearing this, Shu He's heart couldn't help but twitch, a little painful. She still couldn't get over her disappearance.
"Well, from now on, Mommy will take Yi'er with her wherever she goes, okay?"
The little head nodded excitedly, "Okay!"
"Brother Nan is sick, so mother is going to take him to see the doctor. Does Yi'er want to come with us?"
This time, Yi'er didn't hesitate too much. She nodded quickly and said, "Yes! Let's go together!"
At this moment a cold wind blew up, bringing in the silence of the street;
Although Beisha City had just experienced war, the Beidi troops had retreated in the past few days, and Beisha City had a chance to catch its breath.
Several shops opened one after another on Chengnan Street, but business was very slow.
After all, most people in Beisha City can't even afford to eat, let alone go shopping.
The situation in the north of the city was difficult, and some people who stayed in the north of the city were walking on the streets, feeling desolate and hopeless.
Their eyes were dull and their steps were unsteady. They stopped and started, looking at the "homes" that had been burned to ruins, as if they were looking for something.
They are sad and miserable, just like wandering souls without a home.
It seems that the issue of post-disaster reconstruction needs to be resolved as soon as possible.
When he arrived at the military camp, Shu He went to see Nanqi first.
His injuries were truly severe, with almost all of his internal organs damaged. The wound on his shoulder, pierced by the tiger's claws, was bloody and flesh was protruding, a horrifying sight. Fortunately, Xiao Yi'er was out playing with Beiji and didn't see this scene, otherwise, she would have been frightened and had a nightmare!
"Doctor He, General Nan has been in a coma for several days and has a persistent high fever. What should we do?"
Cheng Qi and Mr. Xu saw Shu He coming and waited here early.
Nanqi's identity is extraordinary. If he really died in this military camp, these doctors would probably be buried with him, right?
Shu He took Cheng Qi's pulse and quickly wrote a prescription. "Doctor Cheng, please help me get these medicines and boil them over low heat. Boil five bowls of water into one bowl."
Cheng Qi took the prescription, which contained many herbs he had never heard of. He looked troubled and said, "Madam He, there are so many herbs, and we don't have any in the barracks."
"I brought it."
"what?"
Cheng Qi didn't understand, and saw her take out a medium-sized wooden box from the small bag she was carrying.
"The barracks should have all the commonly used medicinal herbs, right? I brought these back from the mountains. This is Night-shining Grass, and this..."
Shu He took some of the herbs he brought back and gave them to Cheng Qi, and told him the corresponding uses and effects of these herbs.
Cheng Qi listened with some doubt, but there was still some enthusiasm in his eyes.
While Cheng Qi was out getting medicine, Shu He cleaned Nanqi's wound, sutured it, applied medicine, and finally bandaged it.
"So, this is how you used the mulberry thread and curved needle you asked me to prepare!"
Looking at her smooth and flowing movements, Mr. Xu showed shock on his face.
Shu He smiled awkwardly. Being addressed with honorifics by an old man felt a little weird.
She smiled and said, "Mr. Xu, please don't be so polite to me in the future. I'm afraid it will shorten my lifespan!"
Mr. Xu didn't care and felt that she deserved it.
"By the way, Miss Zhang is also seriously injured. She's had a high fever for the past two days. I gave her antipyretics, but the fever keeps coming back. It's really a bit troublesome..."
"Arou is injured?!"
how come?
"You don't know yet?" Mr. Xu thought she knew, but maybe she didn't understand the situation so she didn't mention Miss Zhang.
Shu He quickly asked Mr. Xu to take her to see Zhang Zhirou.
Nanqi lived in a square tent a little south of the main tent, while Zhang Zhirou lived in a square tent to the north. They were not far away and could be reached in two steps, so Shu He did not say hello to Beiji.
Beiji held Xiaoyi'er's hand and was dragged around by her.
It was the first time she had seen so many people! What were these uncles and aunts doing? Were they fighting? Why were they all looking at her like that?
"So, is it General Bei?"
"Yes! It's General Bei!"
On the training ground, some people saw Beiji and recognized him, so they stopped fighting and surrounded Beiji.
"General Bei!"
"General Bei, I finally see you!"
They were soldiers defending the city. When they heard that General Bei led the Chengfeng Army to ambush the Beidi vanguard on Lanchen Avenue and won the victory with very few casualties, they all admired him.
They heard that General Bei often appeared in the garrison camp, and they watched for many days but didn't find him.
Today, while sparring, I saw General Bei. I instantly thought, this is too lucky, right?!
A group of people rushed over, scaring Xiao Yier so much that she let go and ran away, "Mommy, mommy, Yier is scared!"
Beiji's hands were empty and his heart was in his throat. He looked back and saw a group of soldiers surrounding him. The little child had completely disappeared from his sight.
