Chapter Eighteen: A Storm Is Coming(1/2)

While waiting, Huang Zhong also slowly began to ask Wen Du

"Where did you two come from? How did you know that my child was sick?"

"I am a subordinate of Sun Jian, the governor of Changsha. Because I admire the general's ability, I went to Nanyang to find Dr. Zhang and come to treat the young master. I just want to make friends with the general."

"Nanyang? Dr. Zhang? I have also heard rumors that there is a master named Zhang Ji in Nanyang who has made great achievements in treating wind-cold diseases. Could it be that one?"

"The general's guess is correct."

"Well, I have always wanted to ask Dr. Zhang to treat the child, but firstly, the journey is far away, and secondly, nobles from aristocratic families often come to see him for medical treatment. I have never been able to find a suitable time. I didn't expect that I would be called here today.

Little brother, you helped me find it, Huang is so ashamed..."

Just as the two were chatting and asking questions, a maid ran over in a panic.

"Master, the young master is awake!"

Upon hearing this, Huang Zhong immediately ran into the house, and Wen Du also quickly pulled Zhang Zhongjing in.

"Xu'er? Xu'er? It's me, I'm dad, how do you feel?"

Huang Zhong shouted excitedly to Huang Xu, and Huang Xu slowly turned his head and looked at Huang Zhong

"father"

"Why……"

Hearing Huang Xu's voice, Huang Zhong burst into tears immediately, and Zhang Zhongjing on the side also quickly felt Huang Xu's pulse to check the situation.

"How do you feel now, Master?"

"I... don't feel cold anymore, but my head still hurts a little."

"After all, the young master has been bedridden for a long time. This disease is not something that can be cured easily."

With that said, Zhang Zhongjing wrote another prescription and handed it to Huang Zhong

"Once a day in the morning, noon and evening, don't stop. After a month, I believe the young master will be able to get off the bed and walk on the spot."

Huang Zhong immediately urged his servants to buy medicine, and then immediately bowed deeply to Zhang Zhongjing.

"Huang Zhong thanks Dr. Zhang for saving the child's life!"

"General Huang, don't be anxious. Your son's illness can be cured, but his body still needs a longer period of conditioning. This is the key point of the cure."

"In the hope that Dr. Zhang can save the child's life, Mr. Huang is willing to spend all his family property."

Huang Zhong's excitement was beyond words, but Zhang Zhongjing just shook his head.

"I only charge what I should charge. You should keep your property for yourself. As a doctor, I will naturally not leave the patient alone."

"Since it requires a longer period of conditioning, how about Dr. Zhang staying in Huang's mansion for the time being?"

Huang Zhong immediately invited Zhang Zhongjing, but Wen Du naturally couldn't let him succeed.

"Doctor Zhang, my son's illness needs to be treated, but there are many people in Changsha waiting for Dr. Zhang."

After hearing Wen Du's words, Zhang Zhongjing, who was about to agree, stroked his beard and said to Huang Zhong

"General Huang, I also want to agree, but as he said, there are many patients in Changsha who need treatment now. I apologize that I cannot agree."

Hearing the answer, Huang Zhong was also stunned.

"Is there... no other way?"

And Wendu was waiting for this question

"General Huang, I have a message."

"Speaking"

"Why don't General Huang take the young master and go to Changsha with us?"

After hearing Wen Du's words, Huang Zhong also hesitated.

"The Governor has shown me kindness, how can I leave my post without permission?"

"Why did General Huang say that? Traveling thousands of miles to save his beloved son is a good reputation if word spreads about it. I think even Governor Liu can understand it."

After thinking for a while, Huang Zhong nodded.

"Okay, I'll go find the governor now and explain the situation!"

Then he ordered the servants and maids:

"Take good care of the young master and clean up the two guest rooms."

"Yes, sir"

Then, Huang Zhong immediately walked out of the door quickly.

After waiting for nearly two hours, Huang Zhongcai finally returned to the mansion.

"The Governor has already agreed. After I have tidied up, we can set off tomorrow."

But what answered him was not words, but Wen Du's belly. Seeing Wen Du pat his belly, Huang Zhong naturally understood what he meant.

"Quick, go notify the kitchen to hold a banquet."

"yes"



After waiting for about a quarter of an hour, the food finally appeared in front of the three of them. Compared to Huang and Zhang's slow pace, Wen Du ignored it and swallowed the food with big mouthfuls. His demeanor was not as important as whether he was full.

After a night's rest, the group was ready to travel early the next morning.

"Uncle Yang, while I'm away, I'll leave everything to you at home."

Uncle Yang is an old man with gray hair on his temples, but his face is full of energy.

"Don't worry, sir. It's just that this trip is a long way. It's better for you to bring more people with you, so that there will be people to take care of you in front of and behind the horse."

"No need, it's not a delicate body. Besides, now that Doctor Zhang is here, why bother to make such a big move? Okay, I'll leave first."

"Then master, be careful all the way."

Huang Zhong nodded to him, and then boarded the carriage. The four Wendu people, plus two coachmen, began to head towards Changsha...

At the same time, Gongsun Du, who was far away in Liaodong, welcomed a guest at this moment.

"Meet Mr. Gongsun"

"Who are you?"

"My name is Xu He. I came from Jizhou and am now the leader of the Yellow Turban Army."

After listening to Xu He announcing his family status, Gongsun Du also became interested.

"Oh? Why did you come all the way here to see me? You probably didn't come here to appreciate my territory in Liaodong, right?"

Hearing Gongsun Du's joke, Xu He also smiled along with him.

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)

"Oh, the vast territory of Liaodong is no less vast than the states in the Central Plains. It is even worse than many states."

"Okay, stop flattering me here, just say what you have to say directly."

"Since your lord wants to hear it, I won't beat around the bush anymore. I wonder if your lord would like to own a second or third Liaodong land?"

"What do you mean? Do you want me to march into the Central Plains?"

"That's exactly what I mean"

"You are so good at joking. The combined population of all parts of Liaodong is less than one million, and the number of armored men is only fifty or sixty thousand. Although I am far away in Liaodong, I know a little bit about the affairs of the Central Plains, not to mention other things.

For example, Gongsun Zan, who is closest to me, has at least 10,000 to 20,000 more sergeants than me. Besides, he also has an elite team of white horses under his command, how can I compete with him?"

"Sir, what you said is a bit too underestimating yourself. Yes, there are many people in the Central Plains princes who are stronger than you, but the problem is that they are not living in peace with each other. Your Excellency himself knows that now

The Han Dynasty was corrupt, and the people in each state were miserable, so there was a righteous cause of the Yellow Turban. While the princes in various places appeared to be harmonious, in fact, they were secretly recruiting troops to increase their strength. Now we only need the first person to stand up.

Afterwards, they will definitely respond one after another, and the Central Plains will be in chaos, and in the troubled times, you will definitely be able to achieve great achievements for a long time!"

"But again, where do I get the strength?"

"As long as you are willing, the Yellow Turban Army is willing to listen to your orders!"

"Haven't all your Yellow Turban Army been dispersed? How should you deploy them?"

"There are some who are scattered, but there are also some under my control."

"how many people?"

"Two hundred thousand"

"What!"

Gongsun Du was obviously shocked when he heard the number of people. Seeing his reaction, Xu He quickly continued:

"As long as your Excellency is willing, and I spread the news in various states, I believe that there will be a lot of people who will respond. When the princes in the Central Plains have no time to take care of themselves, we will attack Gongsun Zan directly, and first capture all of Youzhou, and then we will try our best to
