The prince is very fierce

Zhongli Jiujiu's martial arts skills are not outstanding, but he can be said to have endless tricks, especially when it comes to raising small animals, no one in the world can match him. Seeing Chen Sining asking for advice, she said with a smile:

"This thing depends on talent. It's easy to say. If you treat animals as friends, over time, you will understand what the other person means even if you don't speak. But it is very difficult to do. If you are not careful enough, you will never understand what they are thinking in your life. What. You use food to train, which is a very basic method. No matter how smart the two little snakes are, they can understand most of the commands, but they can't understand everything you mean. If you really raise them well, you only need a look, and they will understand. What are you going to do..."

Chen Sining listened for a long time, confused, thought about it, looked at the little white snake seriously, and silently said 'wagging the tail' in his heart.

The little white snake that was eating the meat froze when he noticed the look in his master's eyes. He spat out the food carefully, looked around blankly, then lowered his head in aggrieved manner, with a look of 'I know I was wrong'. appearance.

"Well……"

Chen Sining rubbed his forehead and could only write these things down for the time being and try them slowly in the future.

Zhongli Jiujiu told how to tame small animals and took out the small porcelain bottle he found on Sikong Zhi last time.

On the way back, Zhongli Jiujiu studied it several times and could only confirm that the medicine in the small porcelain bottle was non-toxic. There was no suitable environment and tools to analyze it on the way, so it was not clear what it was for.

At this time, in the dead of night and at home, Zhongli Jiujiu poured out a pill, then dissolved it with liquid medicine, smelled the taste, observed the color, and carefully identified the ingredients.

After Chen Sining finished eating, she went out to wash the dishes. She looked at the words "happy" on the window of the opposite wing, and didn't want to disturb Xu Buling's wedding ceremony. She returned to the room, sat down at the table, and played with the little snake. Zhongli Jiujiu was busy and asked curiously:

"What kind of medicine is this?"

"Hundred step grass, five-split coptis..."

Hello everyone, our official account will find red envelopes of gold and coins every day. You can get them as long as you follow them. The last benefit at the end of the year, please seize the opportunity. Public account [Book Friends Base Camp]

Zhongli Jiujiu observed carefully for a long time, with a little surprise in his eyes:

"A lot of precious medicinal materials are used, most of which are used to clear away toxins, remove fire, refresh the mind and replenish qi. It feels a bit like a detoxification thing. I'm not sure what kind of poison it detoxifies, but judging from these medicinal materials, most of the poison is caused by internal organs. Excessive fire and confusion may also be accompanied by sores on the mouth and tongue, weight loss, etc..."

Zhongli Jiujiu was talking seriously when he suddenly noticed that Chen Sining, who was listening in the audience, had his face gradually changed and his brows furrowed tightly. She stopped talking, briefly thought about the relationship between Si Kongzhi and Zhou Qin, and became a little more serious:

"The king's disease also has this kind of symptom?"

Chen Sining attaches great importance to her father. When she heard what Zhong Lijiujiu said, she naturally thought of Chen Jin lying in the palace. She hesitated and nodded:

"It seems there are some, but the imperial doctor said that my father drank too much wine and hurt his lungs, which led to his current condition. The specific symptoms are..."

Chen Sining explained Chen Jin's illness and usual situation in detail based on his memory.

Zhongli Jiujiu listened carefully, and after associating the ingredients in the pills, she slowly guessed something in her mind. She closed the pill bottle and said seriously:

"This was found on Sikong Zhi's body. Put it together with the Locking Dragon Gu. It must be the strange poison he prepared. It is impossible for ordinary people to see the cause of the disease. Your father must have been poisoned."

Chen Sining still does not believe that her father was poisoned, because once the matter is confirmed, there must be something fishy about the deaths of her mother and brother. She had felt since she was a child that her mother had been killed, but she didn't want to really confirm this guess. After all, death from illness is destiny, and there is grief and sorrow but no hatred, and murder seems to be an unforgettable blood feud, and the target of revenge is probably her second brother Chen Ju, whom she has always respected.

Chen Sining was silent for a while. Although many thoughts flashed through her mind, she finally pulled her thoughts back and focused on her father's condition. Regardless of whether Zhongli Jiujiu's guess was true or not, she had to give the medicine a try. Her father was already worse than dead. It was better to seek medical treatment in a hurry than not to be saved.

"Can this medicine cure my father?"

Zhongli Jiujiu looked at the bottle, shook his head and sighed:

"Judging from the number of pills, it is a chronic poison. This antidote is only for life. Take one pill every once in a while to ensure that you don't die. I can find a way to recover. Whether I can be cured will have to wait until later. Only your father will know."

Chen Sining nodded, unable to sit still:

"Then when will we return to the capital?"

Zhongli Jiujiu spread his hands slightly:

"I guess I can go back soon."

"Um?"

Boom boom boom——

On the eighth day of October, it was the third day after the wedding of Xu Buling and Zhongli Chuchu.

Outside Yanshan Pass, 20,000 Xiliang troops and 70,000 infantry formed a formation on the Liuzhou front line. As dozens of tongues of fire spurted out, the steel projectiles that destroyed the city and shook the mountains fell on the South Vietnamese city walls for the first time.

The border between Dayue and South Vietnam had been silent for a period of sixty years. On this ordinary autumn night, war broke out again.

Although sixty years have passed, the army outside the Pass is still the Xiliang Army, and the South Vietnam inside the Pass is still the same South Vietnam.

At that time, General Xu Lie, during his free time when Wuguan could not be conquered for a long time, led his troops and horses to push the border of South Vietnam to Liuzhou, destroying and destroying all the way. Nowadays, the South Vietnamese army seems to be worse than Jiazi.

At that time, Nanyue had an ambitious monarch who gathered troops and horses to show his strength in competing in the Central Plains. The current monarch of South Vietnam, Chen Jin, has been lying on the bed for many years. How strong can he be with the young Chen Ju, the Zhou Qin who is obsessed with seizing power, and a court that is riddled with penetrations?

Although nearly 200,000 troops were gathered in a short period of time by capturing strong men, and they were gathered along Liuzhou, but most of these soldiers and horses were farmers from the surrounding villages. Not to mention the armor and equipment, even the weapons were brought from the villages; It was okay to let them work hard to repair the city defense, but when they met Dayue's army with complete armor, one-third of them fled before the fight started, and another third of them fled after the fight, and the remaining one-third fell immediately. Because Xu Lie had been here before Jiazi, everyone knew that the Xu family army did not kill prisoners or plunder the people, and there was no benefit in resisting. Surrender early and go home early for the New Year.

On the other hand, the Xiliang Army, from the beginning of spring until now, has fought against the Four Kings in the East with consecutive victories, and has basically never suffered a defeat. It is when morale is at its highest, and if they come over to fight against South Vietnam, which their ancestors have crushed to death once, they will still be worried. Then there will be no need to carry swords anymore, not to mention that now with the help of artillery, there is no need to forcefully attack the city.

It goes without saying what will happen when the gap between the two armies is so huge in all aspects.

On the night when Yang Zunyi ordered the bombardment of Yanshan Pass, the Xiliang Army successfully entered the pass.

What awaited after closing the door was not a desperate counterattack from South Vietnam, but Zhang Ying, the governor of Liuzhou, who ran over with tears in his eyes and said with tears in his eyes:

"General Yang, you are here! The Chen family in South Vietnam has imposed tyranny, heavy taxes, and forced recruitment of young men. The people have been suffering for a long time. Xiaguan and many squires in Liuzhou have endured the humiliation for many years and have been waiting for the good generals of the heaven to save the people of Liuzhou from the fire... …”

This scene completely confused Yang Zunyi and the soldiers of the Xiliang Army.

Xu Buling's motive for marching into South Vietnam was to "eradicate Zhou Qin, the traitor who brought disaster to the country, and restore the orthodoxy of the Chen family for the country of brothers."

After all, if you fight, you still have to lose face. You can't openly talk about invading a friendly country that pays tribute every year.

As soon as Liuzhou came up, it was ready to merge the territory of the state into Dayue. This would be shameful if it was not promised.

For this reason, Yang Zunyi also scolded Zhang Ying, the magistrate of the state, and said he was disloyal and unjust, and then asked him to take many squires home to wait for the news.

Feishui Ridge is located between the mountains on the south side of Liuzhou. As soon as the Yanshan Pass was broken, Ning Yuhe and Ning Qingye also entered the pass smoothly. When Yang Zunyi stabilized the situation in Liuzhou, they set off lightly and headed for the Eighteen Villages. Meet Xu Buling...
