The medical concubine arrives: Prince, don't be arrogant

Chapter 388
The crown prince ate the cake given by the emperor, and was poisoned and vomited blood. The most famous Qin imperial doctor in the palace rescued him for a whole night before saving his life.

The news spread like wildfire early in the morning, and all the people in the city were discussing it.

Combined with the tragedy of Prince Jing's Mansion a few days ago, the common people called on the tyrant to abdicate and support the sage as king.

For this reason, many people even stood up to protest, but they were all suppressed by the court.

But the strange thing is that three days have passed, all the virtuous people in the palace have been ordered by the emperor to search King Jing's mansion, but unfortunately they still found nothing.

Therefore, the common people speculated whether the people in King Jing's Mansion had already escaped through the secret passage in the mansion.

In fact, King Jing and his party escaped all the way through the secret passage dug by Shen Yihan.

The secret passage was dark and damp, and the torches were quickly extinguished. All people groped forward by instinct.

This secret road has a fork, one leads to a ruined temple outside the capital of Shanxue Kingdom, and the other leads to a distant country.

Shen Yihan and others walked the road outside the city. After the people in the palace were arranged properly, they hid in a small village outside the city according to the plan, waiting for news of King Jing and his party.

King Jing and the others took another route, leaving Shanxue Kingdom directly and reaching the border of the Nangong Empire.

"My lord, why are we going to the Nangong Empire?"

Finally crawled out of this endless secret passage and took a breath of fresh air.

A group of people crawled out from inside in disgrace.

Looking at the vast prairie around him, he was a little dizzy for a while.

A few days ago, the emperor suddenly wanted to set fire to Prince Jing's Mansion, which caught everyone by surprise.

However, fortunately, King Tai's people have been watching, and they will be notified as soon as there is news.It also allows them to be prepared.

At this time, Shen Yihan's secret way came in handy.

"Look at this."

King Jing did not explain, but took out a letter from his arms.

Wang Yuetong didn't care about other things at this time, she just wiped her hands with her dress carelessly, and took the letter.

"Is this letter written by the head of the Nangong Empire?"

When she opened the letter, she saw the signature on it at a glance.

Wang Yuetong carefully read the text of the letter, it said that the ruler of the Nangong Empire was seriously ill, and he suspected that he was murdered by a treacherous minister, so he asked King Jing to bring along the rumored "plain-faced medical fairy" Princess Jing to treat him. I am sick.

After reading this letter, Wang Yuetong was even more puzzled, why did the ruler of Nangong Kingdom trust King Jing so much, and dared to ask the princess of a foreign country to diagnose and treat his illness.

What's more, the Shanxue Kingdom and the Nangong Empire appeared to be living in peace on the surface, but behind the scenes, there was bound to be a secret fight between the two great powers.

Thinking about it this way, the relationship between the ruler of the Nangong Empire and King Jing is very intriguing.

"My mother is from the Nangong Empire."

King Jing seemed to have seen her thoughts, and only explained in a light tone.

Wang Yuetong didn't ask any more questions, but her heart was as bright as a mirror.

The person who can be in contact with the king must not be an ordinary woman.

After a short rest, the group continued on their way.

Although the land under their feet is the Nangong Empire, the border is still a few days away from the capital.

There were no horses, and not many people, only Yingyue, Siqi, and Shisan, as well as a small amount of water and dry food.

At the beginning, everyone was a little excited when they first arrived here, but as time went on, they felt more and more exhausted.

"It's not an option to go on like this. We should find a family and stay overnight."

Looking at the increasingly dark sky and the dwindling dry food in the luggage, Wang Yuetong sighed softly.

"I think so too. Shisan, Yingyue, you two go over there separately to see if there are any farmers here."

"Yes."

Shisan and Yingyue went to the southeast, while they went to the northwest, and agreed that no matter whether they found it or not, they would return to the original place to join everyone within half an hour.

King Jing and his party were lucky. They found a house that was smoking a short distance after walking.

The owners of this house are an old couple, very enthusiastic, and agreed to keep them here for one night.

So, after meeting Shisan and Yingyue, everyone moved into the old couple's house.

"Come on, here is some hot soup, you are going to drink it to keep warm!"

The old lady brought over several large bowls of hot soup, and Wang Yuetong quickly took them.

"Thank you, mother-in-law, I really troubled you and prepared these things for us."

"It's cold here, I'm afraid you will freeze. I don't think you are dressed like locals. It's not easy to go out!"

Although the old woman is old, she has sharp ears and eyes, and her legs and feet are still sharp.

"Mother-in-law, there are so many of us here, won't it disturb the cleanliness of your old couple?"

The house is not big, and counting the rooms where the old couple lives, there are only three rooms.

In other words, the five of them will sleep in two rooms tonight.

"No, our old couple likes to be lively. You see, it's deserted here, and there's not even a single person. If you come here, you can still make us popular!"

"By the way, that poor old man has trouble with his legs and feet, so he just came to see you. I'll bring in some food for you later. If you need anything, just talk to my old lady!"

The old lady was amiable and very hospitable to guests, and she hadn't seen a stranger for a long time.

"There are still many good people in this world."

Holding a bowl of hot soup, Siqi was moved to tears.

"However, why don't they have children? I see that the old woman has been holding Wang Hao's hand. I think she must have a child that she likes very much."

"They should have children. Perhaps, they have already married and lived outside."

Siqi and Yingyue whispered each other, Shisan went out to help the old woman with work, and Wang Yuetong and King Jing were also chatting.

"When you sleep at night, you have to be more careful. Shisan and I are in the next room. If you have anything to do, just knock on the wall."

King Jing was vigilant everywhere and never relaxed for a moment.

"Okay, I see."

"Don't you think these two old people are a little strange?"

Hearing this, Wang Yuetong looked up at him.

"You also think it's strange that they don't have children?"

"Of course not. When I entered the room just now, I saw a long hunting knife under the table in the outer room."

King Jing looked at the cloth curtain that blocked the outside scene.

"In this mountain, it is normal for them to rely on hunting for a living."
