After fleeing famine, I rely on space to raise cubs

Chapter 98 Sickness

Su Qing was about to walk out, but as soon as he reached the door, the old man had already turned around. He was wearing a bamboo hat. When he turned around, he happened to look at Su Qing. His eyes were like the stings of scorpions, which made Su Qing shudder.

His footsteps unconsciously stopped at the threshold, and the old man sneered and left.

Song Zhi turned around and saw Su Qing's hand grasping the door frame, walking over quickly, "Qing'er, what's wrong with you?"

Su Qing raised her eyes, "Eunuch?"

Song Zhi nodded, and Su Qing raised her lips and sneered, "The Queen Mother moves so fast."

Song Zhi didn't say anything and took Su Qing's hand and walked out of the government office. Liang Jingrui's carriage arrived at the inn outside the city. Su Qing frowned, "Do you want to go? It's better to leave some time to look for evidence."

Song Zhi took Su Qing's hand and said, "Five years have passed since the incident. It's impossible for the Queen Mother to think of it now. She must have found something. She was inconvenient to come forward, and the people around her were familiar with her, so it fell to me."

The emperor is still alive and in good health, so this matter is not urgent."

Su Qing looked at Song Zhi's calm face and sighed, "That's right. How can we really go back to the village? The prince is not a fool, but since he said it, he must do it. How much money do you still have?"

Song Zhi took out a small bag that had turned white from his inner pocket. Su Qing felt a little sad when she saw him being so terse, but it made her even sadder to think that she couldn't reach a coin.

"So poor."

Song Zhi stretched out his hand and poured out less than a small piece of broken silver. Su Qing couldn't help but said: "Our first priority is to make money."

There are many people in Liyang, so there must be opportunities to make money. Su Qing took the scraps of silver and said, "With so little, what can I buy?"

Song Zhi was also a little worried, but even so, Su Qing and Song Zhi still found those cheap shops on the road and bought some fabrics. They reluctantly bought one piece, which could probably make a short-sleeved dress for every woman.

Then he gave the cloth to the clerk and asked him to take it back.

After doing this, the two of them rode back to the inn.

As the deputy general of the border, Wu Tong naturally had to escort Liang Jingrui back to Liyang, as well as General Yang, Song Zhi and others. The post station was a bit crude, but fortunately it was able to help people. It was much better than sleeping in the wild before.

The next morning, the group officially set off and headed straight to Liyang without any delay.

At noon, when the troops and horses were resting, Su Qing leaned against a tree and took a swig of water. Song Zhi walked over and handed her a piece of meat pie, "We took the dried meat from the military camp. What do soldiers eat?"

After taking a bite, it was so salty and bitter that Su Qing frowned, but she still didn't spit it out and drank water to flush it into her stomach.

It is common practice for the three armies not to move and forage to go first.

Food and grass are just rations for soldiers. They must be preserved for a longer period of time so that they will not go hungry.

Su Qing frowned and took a few mouthfuls. She couldn't eat any more, so she handed it to Song Zhi, "I don't want to eat anymore. I'm full."

Song Zhi took a bite and stuffed it into his mouth. Su Qing looked at him and said, "I've eaten it before, do you mind?"

Song Zhi laughed out loud. He approached Su Qing's side, put his hand on her knee, and whispered: "The food you have eaten is very delicious."

Su Qing slapped his hand away, her cheeks red, "You're a bad learner."

Song Zhi raised his head and laughed, his laughter appearing particularly cheerful in the open fields.

Liang Jingrui and Wu Tong looked at the two of them. Wu Tong smiled and said, "Your Majesty, Song Zhi has become much more cheerful. This is all thanks to Miss Su."

Liang Jingrui didn't say anything, his eyes fell on Su Qing's blushing cheeks. The sun was just right today, and it shone on her, making her skin look like white jade, making people unable to take their eyes away.

"Let's go."

Liang Jingrui stopped looking at Su Qing, turned around and mounted his horse, "We're on our way."

There was no pause along the way. They walked continuously for more than half a month. Su Qing couldn't bear it any longer. The station was especially deserted at night. Su Qing covered her chest and coughed. Song Zhi said urgently: "Qing'er, I'll go ask the doctor."

Su Qing shook his head, "Your Majesty is in a hurry, we can't hold him back."

Song Zhi was anxious, "But you've been coughing for five or six days, and it's getting worse now. You can't let it go on."

Su Qing waved her hand, "I'm just tired. It's okay. I just need to rest for a few days."

After walking for another half month, we finally arrived at Liujia City outside Liyang. This place was only one day away from Liyang. Liang Jingrui finally said, "Take a rest and enter the capital tomorrow."

Finally, she no longer had to sleep at the inn. Su Qing had been coughing for more than 20 days, and her face was thin and out of shape.

Liang Jingrui saw Su Qing covering her chest and coughing, and frowned: "Song Zhi, go ask the doctor."

Song Zhi nodded repeatedly and turned to leave. Su Qing said, "How can we hire a doctor if we don't have money?"

Wu Tong was surprised and said: "Didn't the prince give you money?"

Su Qing looked at him resentfully, "When we passed by Xu County, we bought things for the villagers. We had no money along the way."

Wu Tong clapped his hands and said, "Oh, why didn't you tell me earlier?"

No matter whether it is ancient or modern, it is not easy to talk about having no money. What's more, they are running on the road, they don't have to buy clothes, and the accommodation is free. If Su Qing hadn't been sick, he would only quietly ask Wutong when he arrived in Liyang.

Borrow some money.

Liang Jingrui took out a banknote from his sleeve and said, "Song Zhi, go to the bank to exchange it. Here it is for you."

When Song Zhi was about to refuse, Liang Jingrui said: "You will have to spend money when you enter Liyang, take it and give it to me later."

Song Zhi took the banknote, bent ninety degrees, and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty. I am deeply grateful."

Wu Tong and Song Zhi went to ask for the doctor together. It was already dark, and Fu Qiang said to Liang Jingrui: "Your Majesty, go to the room and rest."

Liang Jingrui took off his cloak and walked up to Su Qing, "I'll help you upstairs."

Before Su Qing could say anything, Liang Jingrui had already stood up holding her arm. Su Qing said anxiously: "My lord, you have a distinguished status. I can go by myself."

Fu Qiang also stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, let me take Miss Su back to her room."

Liang Jingrui waved his hand, grabbed Su Qing's arm and said, "You have been coughing for twenty-one days, and I have never asked you to see a doctor, so you have no complaints?"

Su Qing blinked. She didn't know how many days she had been coughing, but Liang Jingrui counted them carefully.

"Your Majesty is in a hurry and is on his way. Besides, the Emperor is also waiting for you. The overall situation is more important. I am just a minion and I cannot delay your Majesty's important affairs."

Liang Jingrui sneered and pushed the door open, "You can bear it. I have been sleeping in the open air all the way. I haven't heard you say a word "no", and you didn't even say a word when you were sick. I really can't find a woman like you in Liyang City."

Less than.”

At this time, the waiter came in with tea from outside the door and said, "Objectively, this is the best Longjing in our store. You can try it."

With that said, the waiter poured a cup for each of Su Qing and Liang Jingrui. Su Qing looked at the waiter's deft movements and raised his eyebrows: "Longjing, how can there be a Longjing here?"
