Chapter two

After the messenger was driven out of the palace gate, Shang Fusu gave an oral order and ordered to copy down several copies of what the messenger had said and done in the court, verbatim, and quickly sent them to the Shang Kingdom.

Every city in the city was posted in the form of notices at the city gates.

The messenger sent by Sima Yu was injured and lying on the horse. Naturally, he could not make the horse go fast. The guards in front of the palace who were sent by Shang Fusu to post the notice were still angry and wished they could not make the horse go faster.

It's better to run and fly, and the result is like this...

After reading what the notice said, the common people were all furious and passed the news to each other. When they saw the figure of the Mo Kingdom messenger lying on the horse from a distance, they dropped what they were doing, turned around and ran home.

Or, buy rotten vegetable leaves and rotten eggs from a nearby stall, and throw them at the man and the horse! Finally, when all the rotten vegetable leaves and rotten eggs are used up, they simply smash all the good ones.

Some of them came up late and couldn't buy anything and threw it away, so they just rushed up and spit on them viciously!

Walking all the way through the bustling city of July City, not to mention hiring a carriage and driver, even raising his head to look up or opening his mouth to speak, the messenger sent by Sima Yu didn't dare to do so. You can imagine how embarrassed he was!

There was resentment in his heart, but he dared not speak out. The messenger was full of hope that after leaving July City, the situation would improve when he went to the next city, but...his wish came again and again.

And San's defeat, especially when he got close to Ji City, and there were still several miles away, he was besieged by the people of the Shang Kingdom!



It was a day's journey on horseback. The messenger endured seven or eight days of spitting and being thrown at him before he reluctantly moved to Jishui City, the border of Moshang and Shang.

The lord of Jishui City is Yuchi Gong. At this time, his beloved wife, the second princess Sima Ying, has been cured by old man Mo Yi and is happy to be cured. In less than a month, she is due to give birth.

As an important trade town between the two countries, the news about Jishui City has always been one step ahead of the city of Mo State. At this time, Sima Ying had already heard about it. The messenger sent by Sima Yu to the Shang State was in the Shang State.

In the court, how could she treat Nalan Xue, her benefactor and best friend, with disrespectful and aggressive words!

"Husband, our posthouse in Jishui City is old. Isn't it time to find a suitable time to send people to repair it?"

Sima Ying touched her bulging belly, sat down next to Yuchi Gong, raised her chin slightly, and looked at him, "And those horses are too old and can't run anymore. It's time.

Let’s get some foals in instead!”

Yuchi Gong was the one who once led troops with Nalan Xue and captured half of the country of Italy. She and her two brothers were also close friends. In addition, Yuchi Mansion and Nalan Mansion, two generations of people,

Decades of friendship... After hearing what Sima Yu did to the envoy sent to the Shang Kingdom, how could it be possible not to get angry?

I was holding my breath and trying to find a way to deal with the messenger. Now, I heard the good advice "offered" by my beloved wife. How could I not respond?!

"What Ying'er said makes sense! I will issue an order from the city lord to choose someone to take care of this matter as soon as possible!"

Yuchi answered Sima Ying with a smile, stretched out his hand, pinched her cheeks which were slightly fatter due to the imminent delivery, stood up and walked out the door.

"Send people to go to various pharmacies and buy all the dried blood, husband."

When Yuchi Gong was about to walk to the door of the room, Sima Ying seemed to suddenly remember something and suggested to him, "Looking at it, it is the season of autumn plowing. The remaining heat of autumn is most harmful to people.

We live in the fields all the time, so it is inevitable that we will suffer from boils, swelling, wind and poison. Let’s have people prepare medicine to remove fire and poison in advance and distribute it to the people for free in case of emergencies, okay?”

Blood root is an indispensable medicinal material when preparing medicine for golden sores. Because it is rarely used, most pharmacies do not keep a lot of it. And the finished medicine for golden sores is afraid of moisture and sun, so it is not easy to store it.

Stored worthless gadgets, unless during wartime, few people would make them out of boredom and save them.

In other words, if Yuchi Gong really agreed to Sima Ying's suggestion, the entire Jishui City would not be able to prepare a single dollar of gold sore medicine within a month... After the one who had suffered fifty board, and

When the messenger who has been tossing all the way arrives, he will find that there is no medicine available and he can't tell the difference between them!

"Of course we should do things that are beneficial to the people. Come and follow Madam's instructions and buy all the dried blood from various pharmacies in the city. Add other medicines and mix them into powder to remove fire and poison.

Distributed to the people free of charge."

Yuchi Gong was also a person who led troops all year round, so how could he not guess his wife's true intention? With a smile on his lips, he pretended not to know, fulfilled her wish, and ordered his servants to quickly complete the matter.

Son, "All preparations must be completed before sunset today, and distribution will begin early tomorrow morning!"



The courier, who had been "tortured" with bruises all over his body, thought he had finally made it through, crossed the Mo-Shang border and entered Jishui City.

He was originally delivering urgent documents and did not bring a lot of dry food with him. During this journey from July City in Shang State, he had already eaten all the dry food on the fifth day, even the residue.

There are no children left.

When there were only two days left to travel, he could barely endure it on the first day, but on the second day, he was so hungry that his eyes turned green!

Without caring about face, the people of the Shang Kingdom threw away the things that were thrown at him, and they didn't hesitate to bite him!

His horse was even more tortured. It was originally a good horse that only ate oats. Now it is so hungry that it even eats rotten vegetable leaves and roadside grass. Many times, it will even fly in mid-air.

He opened his mouth and grabbed the slightly better vegetable leaves that were not so rotten before him... But, even if it was like this, after seven or eight days, he would be so hungry that he would be reduced to skin and bones!

The city gate official pretended not to see the courier's injuries. After checking his waistband, he let him in and told Yuchi Gong, so naturally there was nothing more to do.

"Eh? Isn't this the military horse from the inn?"

"If you don't know me, get out of the way! If you run away soon, you will be trampled to death and no one will dare to care!"

"Tsk, how did such a good horse become so skinny? This rider is really cruel!"

"Who says it isn't!"

"It's hard to say. I can't tell for sure. They just look alike, or maybe they are retired horses?"

"It's not impossible! Yes, yes, that's definitely the case!"

The "common people" along the road seemed to have only seen the scrawny horses, and "automatically filtered" the messengers carried on the horses' backs, whispering to each other, but no one dared to step forward to check.

"Give me...find the city lord...come..."

The messenger struggled to open his mouth, and in a hoarse voice like a broken gong, he ordered the people along the street. However, because he had not drank water for a long time, his voice was low and had no "power" at all, "Immediately..."

The "common people" along the road were too lazy to pay attention to him, and continued to chat, jostle, point at the horses he was riding, joke and joke, and finally, having had enough of playing around, turned around to do other things.

The city lord's palace in Jishui City is located in the southeast corner of the city. On this day, Yuchi Gong's messenger was Ximen, who was across the water from the Shang Kingdom. Therefore, the messenger entered Jishui City lying on his horse.

Without anyone to help inform, we have to walk through the entire city and walk through more than 20 streets before we can move to the city lord's palace. Of course, these 20 or so streets also include five bustling commercial streets.

Busy street!

After lying on the horse and being beaten by the wind and sun for a long time, the messenger arrived at the door of the City Lord's Mansion, but saw that the door of the City Lord's Mansion was locked, and there was not even a guard at the door!

If he hadn't held back his desire to survive and wanted to go back to Zhaoyang City to complain, this messenger would have finished his game long ago... But, here and now, facing the closed door of the City Lord's Mansion, no matter how strong and persistent he is,

After experiencing so many "ordeals", this person... couldn't bear it anymore! As soon as his eyes darkened, he rolled off the horse and fell unconscious!

Watching the courier pass out, the door of the city lord's palace, which was originally surrounded by iron chains, was suddenly pulled open inwards. The seemingly tightly locked iron chains made a loud "bang" sound and hit the ground.

A small piece of dust rose up on the bluestone steps. It turned out that just now, the iron chain was just hanging casually on the two door knockers, and it was not really locked at all!

"Tsk, with such little ability, you still dare to say bad things behind our Xue'er's back. You really don't know what the heavens and the earth are!"

Sima Ying poked her head out from the crack in the door happily, glanced at the courier who had passed out, smiled so much that her eyes were squeezed into slits, stretched out her hand, and beckoned behind her like a child.

He waved his hand and called cheerfully, "Gong, come and see, come and see, it's just as you guessed, lying down like a bastard without opening the lid!"

"You! Ever since you got pregnant, you have become like a child!"

Yuchi Gong smiled and moved out from behind Sima Ying. He stretched out his hand and helped her to prevent her from getting too close to the courier who had passed out. He turned his head and called out. He also had the same look on his face as the two of them.

Looking at the lively two guards with a wicked smile, he asked them to drag the messenger into the house and look for the cheapest doctor in Jishui City to come and "diagnose and treat" him.

Since the last time, Xiang Fei Qingxiang was wrongly accused and executed by Sima Qing, and her two brothers were also demoted to common people. Sima Ying no longer considers herself a royal. When others ask her, she does too.

It is said that if you marry a chicken, follow the chicken, if you marry a dog, follow the dog. The girl who was married off by the royal family a long time ago is like water being thrown out. She has been in the pond of Yuchi's family for a long time. What kind of princess is not a princess? She has long been
