I painted red makeup for Hou Ye

Chapter 56 Linzhou Dangerous Situation
After leaving the house, Fu Yao walked towards the west of the city.

In order not to attract attention, she changed into a coarse blouse again.

I can't go back to the inn, and I can't take the horse with me.The silver taels on my body have to be saved.

Originally, she wanted to come out for two days. After returning, Auntie would not let her be engaged to Chen Xueshi again.

It's good now, there is really no going back.

Cui Xuan didn't know if it was safe or not.

In the refugee house in Linzhou City, the smell of medicine and blood was mixed together.

Standing outside the door, you can hear the wailing inside, and if you walk in, you can see the dried blood on the ground.

The military doctor carefully bandaged everyone's wounds. The summer was so hot that the clothes were soaked with sweat.Some soldiers who couldn't bear the stimulation of the potion wailed directly.

Cui Mei frowned and looked at the appearance of the soldiers lying on the stretchers and beds, feeling worried.

The booklet has been sent out for two months, and it should have arrived long ago, but there is no movement at all.

He didn't know whether the imperial court hadn't received the paper or whether it was deliberately delaying.

In the past month, Linzhou has been attacked twice.

There was less and less food in the city, and countless people died of starvation.The soldiers were starved of food and seriously injured, how could they have the strength to defend against the enemy.

In addition, the plague in the city has not been eliminated, and countless people die of illness every day.

Because of these matters, Cui Mei has not rested for three consecutive days.

"My lord, another 100 people died in the city yesterday." Chang Geng walked in and reported.

Cui Mei sighed: "Arrange the cremation."

After Chang Geng took the order, he left.

"My lord, you haven't slept for three days, you should rest for a while." When Zhao Zongbing walked in, he saw Cui Mei looking at the soldiers with a sad face.

If Cui Mei hadn't taken precautions in advance, Linzhou City would have already fallen.

Zhao Zongbing felt a little ashamed, he was the guard of Linzhou City, he was not as vigilant to these things as Cui Mei, a civil servant who had just been here for a few months.

Coupled with Cui Mei's busy work these days without eating or drinking, Su's helped the doctors treat patients.He was even more ashamed that he looked down on Cui Mei's family background at first.

Cui Mei shook his head at him, it's not that he didn't want to rest, it's just that his mind was full of things in the city, he couldn't fall asleep at all.

"How many soldiers are there in the city?" Cui Mei turned her head and asked.

"Five thousand, of which five hundred are seriously injured and one thousand are slightly injured." Zongbing Zhao said.

Cui Mei stretched out her hand and rubbed the center of her brows, the wounded soldiers would definitely not be able to participate in the battle anymore.

There are only [-] soldiers in the entire Linzhou City who can resist the enemy's [-] soldiers.

Not to mention that a few days earlier, that person said aggressively that there were reinforcements behind him.

"My lord, why don't you give up your life and fight them to the death!" Zhao Zongbing said.

He has a quick temper, and the man has been saying something to irritate him these few days, which made him want to go to the city to fight to the death.

Cui Mei felt helpless for a while, and quickly said: "Don't be impulsive. If Linzhou City falls, it will be a catastrophe for us, Great Wei. The people of Linzhou City will also suffer as a result."

Zhao Zongbing was anxious, "But if this continues, Linzhou City will be unable to defend sooner or later, what should we do then?"

Cui Mei shook his head, "Let me think about it."

On the other side, Su wore a mask and brought the boiled soup into the room.

Her eyes were already covered with bruises, and after pouring out the medicine juice, she called in attendants and doctors to feed the medicine to the lying patients respectively.

She also walked to a twelve or thirteen-year-old girl with the medicine in her hand.

The little girl's face was already covered with rashes, and her eyes were cloudy.

Su remembered that the little girl's aunt had passed away two days ago.She only hated her shallow medical skills, no matter how she couldn't develop a better prescription.

"Come on, let's drink the medicine," her voice choked with sobs.

The little girl sat up, covered her mouth and coughed twice.

She coughed violently, Su's heart seemed to be twisted, and she patted the little girl's back worriedly.

The little girl stopped coughing and looked at her: "Sister, will I die?"

As if she didn't expect her to ask this question, Su was stunned for a moment, then she shook her head, "No, you just caught a cold and won't die."

After that, she scooped up a spoonful of the medicine juice and fed it to her: "Drink the medicine, and the disease will be cured."

The little girl nodded, "I believe sister, when I get well, I will go catch fish with sister. You don't know, my dad is a fisherman, he will always catch a lot of big fish, my dad The fish my mother cooks is delicious."

There was some longing in her eyes, Su Shi pursed her lips, "Drink the medicine quickly, it will be cold in a while."

The little girl took the medicine bowl in her hand, and drank the medicine in two or three gulps.

Su Shi took out a candy from her body, peeled off the red candy wrapper and put it in her mouth: "Sweet."

She pulled out a smile, this little girl didn't know that her parents and elder brother were gone, she only thought that they had gone home after being cured.

The little girl nodded obediently, "Sweet."

Su smiled and said: "You rest first, I will come to see you later."

"Sister, go quickly." The little girl waved at her and lay down again.

Su Shi also turned around to take care of other people.

The smell of herbs filled the whole room. She fed the medicine and took the pulse carefully.

It was already late at night when the work was over.

Most of the patients in the room had already fallen asleep, so she walked out lightly.

"Ma'am, I've been tired all day, drink some water." A small attendant handed her a glass of water.

She took the water, nodded and said, "Thank you."

The attendant looked at her with a smile on his face, "You have worked hard."

When Su looked up, he saw the sky full of stars and the bright moon hanging high, covering the entire Linzhou City.

She took off her mask, and by the moonlight, it was obvious that her normally fair face had already turned yellow and thin.

The tea was cool, just enough to moisten her dry throat after a day.

"The defenders of Linzhou City have worked hard. I heard that there are many casualties." There was a hint of worry in her face.

Ever since she came here, she can't go back, and she doesn't know what happened to Cui Mei.

The enemy attacked Linzhou City twice, and she didn't know whether he was injured or not.

The attendant was a teenager, and when he heard her words, his face froze, "The villain also heard that many soldiers were killed and injured, and I don't know if I can survive this time."

Su sighed, and handed him the cup in her hand, "I hope, you go back to sleep earlier."

After that, she turned around and went back to the room.

The moonlight hit the girl's front and back, stretching her shadow long.

The little attendant lowered his head to look at the cup, hooked the corner of his mouth, and threw it on the ground.

The cicada on the tree screamed eagerly, and the sound echoed in the yard, and it didn't stop after a long time.
