The Pastoral Medicinal Fragrance of the Imperial Concubine

Chapter 698 Parting (2)
Hao Ren stepped forward and patted Hu Xian on the shoulder.

Hu Xian hurriedly said: "It's been a long time ago, Madam's medicine is very effective, I have long thought of thanking Madam in person!"

After nearly half a year, the underground river and the city wall have been repaired and reinforced. Hao Ren is very satisfied with Hu Xian and his brothers, but because he still has concerns about them, he has not arranged for them to do confidential things for the time being. Licheng maintains law and order.

"Why are you here?" Hao Ren asked.

"Many of the wounded here are our former brothers. Isn't it snowing heavily? I brought a few brothers here to see if there is any need for help. Who knew that the house collapsed suddenly..." Hu Xianzheng said , I saw Shiba lead people to rescue two old people from the collapsed house. One of the old people's legs seemed to be broken, and he couldn't move at all, so he was carried out by Shiba.

"I'll go and have a look!" Leng Ping said, and got out of the carriage with the medicine box.

Hao Ren nodded and said, "Be careful, these houses are all temporary and not strong!"

Leng Ping responded and went to treat the old man's leg.

Hao Ren looked at the collapsed house and sighed, "It's a pity that I don't have enough money to help everyone build a solid house, otherwise..."

Hu Xian hesitated for a moment, turned his eyes to look around, and said in a low voice, "Master, can I talk alone?"

Hao Ren nodded.

On the outskirts, Hu Xian hesitated again and again and said, "Master said there is a lack of money?"

Hao Ren nodded, "Nowadays there are so many people coming here at once, and most of the money comes from Madam's clinic and drug store. It is indeed difficult to maintain the survival of so many people. It will take next year for the food to come in, and there are still close to it." In half a year, I really don’t know if the common people can persevere!”

Hu Xian clasped his fists and said, "My lord is really benevolent and righteous. He loves the people like a son. My lord, I know where there is money in a humble job, but I don't know if I dare to do it?"

Hao Ren looked up at him.

"The Mighty Prince has been deploying since 20 years ago. Ten years ago, he discovered a gold mine on the border between Mongolia and China. This is why the Mighty Prince has been stationed at the border for the past ten years! The Mighty Prince is very impressive. Opening gold mines, and then recruiting troops to strengthen their power, these imperial courts don’t even know about it!” Hu Xian said in a low voice.

Hao Ren looked at Hu Xian suspiciously, "You are just a small striker, how do you know such a private matter?"

Hu Xian said in a low voice: "Xiaozhi and deputy general Shi Yun are good friends. Shi Yun has always been the confidant of the mighty prince. This matter was revealed by Shi Yun inadvertently when he was drinking with Beizhi once when he was drunk. I only know that the general location of the gold mine is in the forest on the border, and I don't know anything else!"

"The woods?" Hao Ren was taken aback. Could it be that the woods were the woods he strayed into after being hunted down by Situ Zhanchen's men?The forest has dense branches and leaves, the sun is not visible, and it is smoggy all the year round. People will lose their way when they go in. He spent seven days and nights in it before turning out!
"According to what Shi Yun said, it's that forest, but I have never been there before!" Hu Xian nodded.

Hao Ren looked at Hu Xian, "How dare you tell me such a big secret?"

Hu Xian hurriedly knelt down and said, "Master, Hu Xian and his brothers were healed by the madam, and later they were taken in by the master. The master and the madam are kind to our brothers. Brothers know, because we belong to the mighty prince." Man, I still have doubts about us, but you think about it, when the mighty prince left us alone and let us fend for ourselves, the relationship between master and servant has come to an end!"

Hao Ren helped him up, "Okay, I trust you, I will leave this matter to you, but remember, don't tell anyone!"

Hu Xian nodded quickly.

At this moment, Leng Ping had already fixed the bones for the old man, and ordered: "Master, your leg is broken. Although it is connected, I am afraid that you will be in bed for three months. I will send someone to take care of you. You don't Worry!"

The old man was crying, holding Leng Ping's hand and saying that she was a good person.

Leng Ping looked at the thatched hut, and sent people to the village to check to see if there were any huts with potential safety hazards. If there were any, they would repair them quickly, and sent people to come to collect cotton clothes and food.

The small village became lively because of the arrival of Leng Ping and his party.

"Grandpa and aunt, it's the Chinese New Year now, and the house doesn't know when it will be repaired. Why don't you go to our house to celebrate the New Year this year!" A neighbor came to invite the old man whose house collapsed to celebrate the New Year at home.

The two old people hurriedly responded with gratitude on their faces.

Looking at the peaceful little village, Leng Ping smiled slowly.

Compared to watching the dirty things of those big families, Leng Ping likes the simplicity and kindness of the country people, and likes to watch everyone stay together and work hard to live.

On the way back, Leng Ping was still sighing at what she saw today.

"They lack too many things. Unfortunately, our money is almost spent. Otherwise, we can give them more food!" Leng Ping couldn't help but said.

"I will find a way to deal with the money issue. After the beginning of spring, I will go to Mongolia to meet Huanglian and discuss business matters!" Hao Ren said.

"But the border is still Situ Zhanchen's territory, wouldn't it be too dangerous to do so?" Leng Ping frowned.

"Situ Zhanchen is only focused on conquering Tiancheng now, and it is difficult to take care of the border. We have been preparing for three years, and it is time to give it a try. But don't worry, I will try not to let Situ Zhanchen track him down to Licheng. !” said Hao Ren.

Leng Ping knew that Hao Ren was prudent, but she couldn't help reminding: "We are not Situ Zhanchen's opponents yet, we still have to hide our strength and deal with it carefully!"

Hao Ren nodded, "Don't worry, I have my own sense of proportion! But today the horse was scared, are you really okay?"

Hao Ren was still worried about what happened just now.

"It's really okay, I can still protect myself! Now that the horse is killed, it happens to be a tooth sacrifice for the people in the village. It can be regarded as a New Year's gift for them!" Leng Ping laughed.

Hao Ren couldn't help but said: "You can still laugh, do you know that you really scared me to death just now, if Hu Xian didn't show up in time, I don't know if something happened to you... How about starting today, you Learn martial arts from me, at least it can improve your reaction ability!"

"I can protect myself, but I can't do it overnight if I want to practice like you!" Leng Ping was terrified when she heard it. Since she gave birth, she only studied medicine with Ge Sheng every day, and then Taking care of children, where is the time to learn martial arts?Besides, she can use acupuncture to prick the acupoints, which is usually able to protect herself. Today's incident was an emergency, and before she could react, Hu Xian forced the carriage to stop.
