Medicine Girl Jingjing

Chapter 561 Yan Jing Treats People Sincerely (1)
After a while, the smell of rice wafted in the air, and the soldiers distributed the cooked bean rice to their families first.

The family members saw that Li Jingjing could eat bean rice without vegetables, so they didn't have any complaints.

Wang Yanyu shared some bean rice from Li Jingjing's bowl, and said, "It turns out that this is the kind of rice that soldiers eat when marching and fighting."

Li Jingjing said: "I heard from my brother that the Tiger Ben army was fighting on the grasslands of the Northland. They cooked during the day for fear that the smoke would attract the enemy, so they made big dry biscuits with a little salt at night. Each time they made it, it was enough for three or four days. .”

Wang Yanyu asked: "You mean that when the Tiger Ben army fought in the Northland, everyone had to carry a few big dry biscuits?"

Li Jingjing said quickly: "If you don't believe me, send someone to ask a soldier of the Tiger Ben Army."

Wang Yanyu really sent someone to ask, and the reply he got was the same as what Li Jingjing said, and he still found it incredible. He took out a sandalwood fan carved with landscape paintings and fanned it, and said with emotion: "No wonder my parents don't allow my eldest brother , The second brother went to march in the north."

Seeing Wang Yanyu yawned, Li Jingjing said, "The carriage has been repaired, why don't you go to the carriage for a while?"

Wang Yanyu closed her fan, got up and went to the carriage.Li Jingjing saw that Wang Yanyu ate and slept well, and was not affected by the earthquake at all, and sincerely hoped that she would always be so happy and live a happy life.

About an hour later, the soldiers sent to investigate returned and reported loudly: "Princess, the earth dragon disaster is getting weaker and weaker. The official road leading to Dingxi Mansion here is not seriously damaged, and the convoy can pass. .”

All the family members let out a sigh of relief when they heard that there was no disaster ahead.

Li Jingjing sighed softly and said: "The center of the earth dragon is not in Dingxi, then it is in Tianshui."

With thousands of family members, she couldn't return to Tianshui to check the disaster situation, so she could only go to Dingxi.Without hesitation, the convoy was ordered to set off.

In the evening of the same day, the convoy arrived at Dingxi City Mansion, which is two hundred miles away from Jincheng, which is very close. If they leave tomorrow morning, they will arrive in the afternoon.

Dingxi just experienced a low-level earthquake at noon. No one in the city was injured. The people in the village lived in very weak thatched huts. More than a dozen thatched huts collapsed and injured several people.

Officials of the city government, local celebrities and families all went out to welcome Li Jingjing.

Li Jingjing was most concerned about the disaster situation. Hearing about the disaster situation in Dingxi, she donated some medicine and 3000 taels of silver.

"The center of the earth dragon should be in Tianshui. Do you have any news about Tianshui?"

Dingxi Changshi is a tall, thin, middle-aged man with a dark face and a pair of black and white slender eyes. He has a straightforward personality, otherwise he would not have worked in this position for 20 years. He said loudly: "Princess, Tianshui The governor did not send anyone to deliver any orders. Tianshui is fine."

Li Jingjing raised her hand to stop Li Bei from getting angry, and said slowly: "It's better if there's nothing to do. If there's something to do, I'll stay at the posthouse today, and you will report it immediately when you get the letter."

All the officials waited for Li Jingjing to leave, and then said to Dingxi Changshi: "My lord, that is Princess Huguo, how can you deny what she said in person."

Dingxi Changshi then said: "I'm telling the truth."

All the officials shook their heads speechlessly, and they all persuaded Xi Changshi to go to the posthouse to make amends with a heavy gift.

"I didn't say anything wrong." Dingxi Changshi left in a huff, and took people to inspect the severely disaster-stricken places nearby to see if the local Lizheng had sent relief medicines and money to the victims.

Li Jingjing took a hundred family members to rest in the inn, and the rest were placed in the inn in Dingxi City Mansion, guarded by the soldiers of the Tiger Ben Army.

She and all her family members had just had a simple dinner at the posthouse, when He Jingyan, Li Yunxiao, Wang Haoran, Di Yumin and others rode to her and gave her a big surprise.

"Didn't you go to inspect the fief?"

"Yesterday's inspection is over, and I'm going back to Jincheng today." He Jingyan had heard about the Dingxi earthquake on the road, and ran all the way worrying, and finally saw Li Jingjing, who was safe and sound, and said, "My lady, have you ever encountered an earth dragon turning over?" ?”

Li Yunxiao said with a stern face: "Sister, the Jincheng Dilong turned over at noon this afternoon. Fortunately, the disaster was very small and no one was injured. My brother-in-law and I heard that there was also a Dilong turned over in Dingxi, so we hurried over to meet you."

Li Jingjing saw that her husband and second brother who hadn't seen each other in just half a month had lost a lot of weight, she didn't care about talking about the disaster, but frowned and said: "Why don't you take good care of your body, you have lost so much weight. "

Over there, Wang Yanyu was talking to Di Yumin: "When Dilong turned over, we were at the junction of Dingxi and Tianshui. The movement was really loud. There was a deep hole in the official road, and a few people could be squeezed in. Fortunately, only A few ladies suffered minor injuries, the rest are fine."

He Jingyan heard Li Jingjing's explanation about the Tianshui earthquake, and his heart skipped a beat. He felt that what she said was right. He was worried that the people would riot and grab food, so he said, "Don't stay in Dingxi, come with us to Jincheng."

Li Jingjing hesitated and said: "I think there will be news from Tianshui by tonight at the latest. If it is true as I said, I will leave the disaster relief medicine to the Tianshui garrison this morning and let them send it there. If I am wrong, then It could not be better."

He Jingyan said: "Just leave the medicine here, and I will leave a hundred soldiers to guard it for three days. If there is nothing wrong with Tianshui, they will transport the medicine back to Jincheng."

"Now that the weather is hot, if the earth dragon turns over and the disaster is serious, many people will die. In addition to medicine, we must prevent the epidemic. I have to write some methods to prevent the epidemic." Li Jingjing took He Jingyan's hand and said, "Husband, give me half Shichen, I will go to Jincheng with you after I finish writing."

He Jingyan nodded in agreement, and ordered people to go to the Dingxi City Mansion to inform the family members, and let them pack up and prepare to leave for Jincheng.

On the way to Dingxi, Li Jingjing had sorted out her thoughts in her mind, and now she started to write, and wrote twelve pages in one breath, clearly describing the efficacy of the donated medicine and the measures to prevent the epidemic.

The long motorcade left Dingxi City Mansion in a mighty way, and within a short while, it was raining moderately in the dark night.

A man on a black horse galloped to the gate of the city in the rain, and shouted, "Tianshui Mansion [-] miles urgent official report, open the gate!"

In the dark, Dingxi Changshi got up from his concubine's bed, put on his clothes, and ran all the way to the front of the hall in the rain before he could put on his socks.

The man who came to Tianshui was an official from the seventh rank of the Longdao Dudu's Mansion, his eyes were red, and the rain and tears were mixed on his face, with a sad expression, he knelt down and presented the letter wrapped in oil paper, and said with a sob: "My lord, Tianshui Mansion The earth dragon turned over, the city walls and houses collapsed, and more than ten thousand soldiers and civilians were killed, and the governor died of serious injuries. Before he died, I asked you to bring troops, food, and medicine to save people."

During the noon earthquake in Tianshui Mansion, the entire Governor's Mansion and the Yamen of Tianshui Mansion collapsed.
