Chapter 16 The Little Widow

Bandits can be said to have experienced many battles. Seeing that they can't get any advantage, and they may suffer losses if they continue to fight, someone shouted: "Brothers, withdraw!"

Meng Yu raised his eyebrows. If he was 20 years younger, he might be young and energetic and ordered to chase them down.

But now, he is over [-] years old, and he values ​​the lives of his subordinates more than cutting grass and roots, so he puts his sword back into its sheath, and said coldly: "Clean up, heal those who are injured, and guard around those who are not injured."

The precaution now is not only to guard against bandits who will kill their carbines, but also to fear that the bloody smell here will attract wolves or other ferocious beasts.

Speaking of which, Meng Yu was the most innocent and unlucky one this time.

He was originally from the capital city, so he was considered a little bit rich in the capital city.

The Meng family is also an aristocratic family in the capital city. They have served the most noble people in the Forbidden City in the Imperial Hospital for several generations, and they are quite famous.

It's a pity that imperial medicine is also a high-risk occupation, and if you are not careful, you will bump into some terrible secrets.

For example, Meng Yu's grandfather was more unlucky. He just ran into Emperor Qing'an's concubines and guards dressed as eunuchs in a remote and deserted place and couldn't help himself.

You know, Emperor Qing'an's harem at that time had only one empress, two concubines and three concubines, so many palaces had no nobles living in them, so many palaces were simply sealed off.

A few imperial doctors were idle and bored, so they planted some medicinal herbs in some of the unsealed, relatively remote palaces.

Grandfather Meng at that time was one of them.

It's a pity that those two people thought they could cheat the world, but in fact they were targeted by the emperor's hidden guards, and they secretly admired that one who dared to put a cuckold on the emperor's head.

On the contrary, these hidden guards dare not report to the emperor, for fear that the emperor's head will be snapped if he is angry.

Now that he was met by the unlucky Doctor Meng, let him take the blame, shall we?
Although Emperor Qing'an didn't want the life of Imperial Physician Meng, he still got angry and beat him up.

Now Physician Meng was also worried that if he stayed again, the Holy Majesty would think of the green hat on his head when he saw him, so he simply invited him to go home and open a pharmacy, recruiting a few young apprentices, which was very comfortable.

However, Physician Meng himself is a famous doctor, and he has cured many high-ranking officials and dignitaries with his wonderful hands, so the reputation of the Hall of Rejuvenation has spread more and more widely.

At the time of Meng Yu's father, Meng's father had no interest in sitting in the hall to diagnose pulse and treat diseases, but he liked to take the opportunity to find good medicinal materials to walk around. Unexpectedly, he actually received a lot of good medicinal materials. The medicinal materials that come here have better medicinal properties and cheaper prices, so they simply regard this as another way out for Huichuntang.

After all, even the children of the Meng family may not all be interested in medical skills, and then everyone can do whatever they like.

However, the Hall of Rejuvenation has always been in the hands of the eldest son of the eldest son.

Now Huichuntang is under the management of Meng Yu's father, if nothing happens to Meng Yu in the future, Huichuntang will be in his hands.

Meng Yu is also like his own father, only a small success in medical skills, so he can't wait to take advantage of the opportunity to collect medicinal materials to wander around.

Later Meng Yu's mother-in-law saw that her eldest son was wilder than her husband and still not in love with her family, so she appointed him a daughter-in-law. Originally, she wanted him to be trapped in a gentle village so that he would not always think about running away. up.

But after Meng Yu got married, he still didn't change his preferences until his sister died a few years ago, and then his wife also died. For the sake of his nephew and his son, he spent a lot of time in the capital these few years.

Even if you go out, you still take them with you, and you always go to a closer place, and you can also take the two little ones out to relax and learn a lot.

During this trip, he also overheard people saying that Eucommia ulmoides here has good medicinal properties. In addition, there are also a lot of medicinal materials such as dry pinellia, achyranthes bidentata, Atractylodes macrocephala, and salvia miltiorrhiza. When he went back, he brought Meng San and twenty others to this strange little place for a walk.

Even if he is used to traveling around, he will inevitably encounter bandits, water bandits and so on, and there will inevitably be enemies who want his life.

But meeting such a bandit in this small place really surprised him.

However, there are not many old people who often follow him with him now, otherwise none of the bandits would want to run away.

Meng San went around and questioned the two half-dead bandits before coming to Meng Yu's side and reporting: "Master, we have seriously injured two people and slightly injured 11 people."

From the time when Doctor Meng was in charge, there was a young servant who grew up with him and would be named Meng.

Meng San was chosen to be by Meng Yu's side since he was a child. He was a servant and a guard.

Meng Yu sighed: "These little ones are still too young to be hurt like this by these mobs, and I'll let Meng Da teach them when I go back."

You know, this time he brought Meng San and 21 guards with him.

As a result, more than half of them are injured now, which is really a bit depressing.

After finishing speaking, he sighed again: "But their eyes are pretty good, and they know that Master is a fat sheep."

Meng Wu glanced at his master who felt good about himself, took a small step back cautiously, and then said in a low voice: "Master, I have questioned the next two survivors, and this group of people is targeting the couple who came together. Mother and daughter, they heard that they brought nearly ten thousand taels of silver into Beijing, so they started to do something big."

Feeling slapped in the face, Meng Yu really wanted to kill those blind bastards.

Just relying on the chariots and horses he brought, isn't it enough to be a fat sheep?
Why do you look down on yourself?

However, when I thought of saving someone, that pretty little widow was protecting her daughter?

He thought they were a pair of sisters?
Meng Yu also sighed casually: "I didn't expect that little widow to have a huge sum of money?"

No wonder he was targeted by those people, and fortunately he met someone like him who regarded gold and silver like dung, so he was indifferent to hearing about the huge sum of money.

The corners of Meng San's mouth twitched, but he still told the truth: "My lord, I found out that Mrs. Yu is not a widow. It turned out to be the wife of a county magistrate in a county town. After divorce, she brought her daughter to Beijing to join her cousin."

Feeling that he was being fooled, Meng Yu took a deep breath so as not to let those inappropriate words come out of his mouth.

He wanted to save face sophistry: "Hehe, she didn't lie, they both got married and divorced, so it's normal for her to treat her man as dead."

But Meng Yu has seen more sinister people in his travels all these years, and after thinking about it for a while, he thought that it was very likely that the little widow's man deliberately leaked the secret.

The corner of his mouth curled up, and with a handsome smile, he said cheerfully: "Bring those two people here, and I'll take them to meet the little widow."

Meng San didn't even need to look at his expression, just listening to his tone at the moment, he knew that he did it on purpose.

He didn't care about these, he was just worried about his master's safety: "Should I lead them there?"

Don't be afraid of [-], just in case, who knows if some bandits will suddenly appear in this deep mountain and wild forest?
