Chapter 153 You are now pregnant with this king's flesh and blood
Tian Xiang smiled bitterly upon hearing this,
"I am now meat on the chopping block. Apart from cooperating with Princess Xiao Li, is there any other way for me to go?"
She has been cornered by Princess Qi.
Having made up her mind to turn King Qi into Hua Jin's free labor force, Tianxiang cheered up, and under the service of that rough girl, she dressed up and went to the king's tent to find King Qi in person.
King Qi was enjoying his aunt's dance. When he saw Tian Xiang entering the tent with a pale face, he stood up quickly with a look of distress on his face.
"Oh, you are pregnant with my king's flesh and blood. Why don't you rest in your own tent? Why did you come here?"
"Your Majesty, I am afraid, can I watch the singing and dancing with you? If Your Majesty is tired, I will go back to the big tent to rest."
Tianxiang snuggled into King Qi's arms weakly, and when she turned around, she glanced at the rough girl behind her.
She has been in Prince Qi's Mansion for several years. At first, she was a beauty cultivated by Prince Qi, and was intended to be given as gifts to various dignitaries.
Therefore, Tian Xiang knew clearly how to capture all of King Qi's attention so that King Qi would have no time to take care of all matters related to mining.
As long as King Qi's attention is focused on the woman, Tianxiang can control everything.
As expected, the King of Qi agreed to Tian Xiang's request, and held Tian Xiang in his arms while they watched the new concubine playing tricks. At night, Tian Xiang did not bother the King of Qi any more, and graciously allowed the new concubine to accompany the King of Qi to the king's tent.
For several days, the King of Qi gradually stopped asking about mining matters, and sometimes even left these matters directly to Tianxiang.
Tianxiang is now pregnant with his flesh and blood. No matter what, Tianxiang and him are one.
So when it comes to trust, I'm afraid the person King Qi trusts the most now is Tian Xiang.
So the small silver mine in the north was mined smoothly. All the mining craftsmen discovered that the mines that King Qi asked them to mine were all poor and small mines.
Such a large amount of manpower, material and financial resources have been invested, and before there is any return, this small silver mine will be mined out.
But no one cared about this, and the King of Qi did not call for a stop, so the King of Qi's army and the craftsmen could only continue mining.
Princess Qi was extremely anxious. Seeing the days passing by, she once again approached Sun Guogong and asked:
"Dad, why is that bitch Tianxiang not dead yet? Your Majesty added moon silver to her yesterday, and now she has more moon silver than I, a serious princess, have."
The reason for adding double the amount of moon silver is that Tianxiang is now a twin, so he naturally needs to use two pieces of moon silver.
This made Princess Qi very angry.
At this time, Sun Guogong was entertaining Bai Jinghong and Yuan Youying from Tianyigu in the living room. When he heard what Princess Qi said, he put down his wine glass and shouted loudly,
"Do you look like a princess? Didn't you see my father entertaining guests?"
The people from Tianyi Valley were not easy to deal with. When they arrived, they said they wanted to borrow the mineral exploration map of Beidi. Sun Guogong was doing Tai Chi with Bai Jinghong.
Princess Qi was stunned, suppressed the hatred in her eyes, and turned around to go to the inner chamber.
At the banquet, Sun Guogong looked at Bai Jinghong with an embarrassed expression.
"I'm sorry, little girl, I'm rude."
Bai Jinghong looked polite, but Yuan Youying turned her head curiously and looked in the direction Princess Qi left.
While pushing cups and changing cups, Yuan Youying whispered to Bai Jinghong:
"Elder brother, the clothes on Princess Qi are really beautiful, and the jewelry on her head is also very beautiful."
They are a Jianghu sect. Yuan Youying grew up in the valley, and Tianyugu has always advocated frugality and simplicity, so the disciples in the sect usually wear white clothes.
This was Yuan Youying's first face-to-face contact with a royal nobleman, and she felt that Princess Qi's luxury was truly enviable.
If she could also wear these gorgeous clothes, she would definitely look better than Princess Qi.
Bai Jinghong glanced at the direction Princess Qi left, and the fiery red figure of Hua Jin appeared in his mind.
He has seen a stunning woman who does not need much gold, silver and jade threads to decorate her brocade clothes, nor does she need many hair accessories on her head.
Hua Jin simply stands there, and is the real flower of wealth in the world.
Thinking of Hua Jin, Bai Jinghong's heart ached again. He took a dull sip of wine, his mind no longer on the mineral exploration map.
Sun Guogong was such a sophisticated person. He could tell at a glance that Bai Jinghong and Yuan Youying were absent-minded. He immediately waved and a group of maids carrying exquisite and expensive clothes, hats and jewelry came to Yuan Youying.
Just listen to Sun Guogong say:
"I also have some friendship with the leader of your noble sect. Today, I will ask you to act as the elder of the two of you. I will give these to nephew Youying as a meeting gift."
"Given to me?"
Yuan Youying was a little surprised, but she couldn't help but be attracted by these gorgeous clothes.
Sure enough, the days outside the valley are much brighter and more beautiful. The lives of these dignitaries are so many times better than those in Tianyi Valley who are simple-hearted and have no desires.
Just when Sun Guogong nodded with a smile, Yuan Youying took over the brocade clothes so quickly that Bai Jinghong didn't have time to say anything.
Bai Jinghong opened his mouth slightly and looked at Sun Guogong but hesitated to speak.
Sun Guogong was very able to observe words and emotions, so he took the initiative to ask:
"What does the wise nephew Jinghong want to say?"
"It's nothing, it's just...I recently met a girl. She once said she would come to the capital. I don't know if this girl has entered the city."
Bai Jinghong finally said it. This was the deepest concern in his heart since he entered the capital.
Yuan Youying, who was admiring the gorgeous clothes, suddenly turned down and looked at Bai Jinghong with anger in her eyes.
She didn't even know that the eldest brother was still thinking about the bitch in red.
Duke Sun Guogong watched the reactions of Bai Jinghong and Yuan Youying, twirled his beard and asked with a smile:
"Is this girl the one that Jinghong Xiannephew likes?"
As soon as these words came out, Yuan Youying's face became even more ugly, and Bai Jinghong's face was stunned.
He immediately shook his head and said to Sun Guogong seriously:
"This girl is already married. She has a husband-in-law. I am asking about her whereabouts just out of moral concern as a friend."
This sounds fine, but after thinking about it carefully, it still reveals a message: Bai Jinghong is very concerned about the whereabouts of this girl, and it doesn't matter whether the girl is married or not.
Sun Guogong laughed clearly,
"I understand that they are all people of temperament. Can Jinghong, the wise nephew, draw a picture of this girl's face? I can ask the government officials in the capital to inquire and find out where this girl is in the capital now."
It is not that Sun Guogong is boasting. The people in Guqi Prefecture only know Sun Guogong but not the King of Qi. There is a reason.
Because the governance of the entire capital city was controlled by Sun Guogong.
King Qi? He just asked questions when he was interested, and occasionally issued one or two innocuous decrees.
So just finding a girl for Bai Jinghong was very simple for Sun Guogong.
After hearing this, Bai Jinghong's face felt secretly happy, but he quickly disappeared the joy on his face and got up to paint Hua Jin's appearance.
He had no intention of harassing Hua Jin, and he also knew that Hua Jin was married. He just wanted to know where Hua Jin was now and whether she was living well.
As long as she lives well and Bai Jinghong can take a look at her from a distance, everything will be enough.
At this time, Hua Jin was in a small independent courtyard in the capital of Guqi Prefecture, looking at the infusion tubes and iron needles newly delivered by the Ministry of Industry.
Before Hua Jin came to the capital, he drew the blueprints and asked the Ministry of Industry to make it. It took so long to come up with such a thing.
Although this kind of rough thing is far from as fine as that produced by modern industrial assembly lines, it can still be used.
She looked at the infusion tube and iron needle on the tray and nodded.
"Using this set of tools and the prescriptions for rehydration salts and electrolyte solutions I wrote, and putting them into Jin Shui's body, what will be the effect?"
Lian'er immediately replied:
"Your Majesty, the officials from the Ministry of Industry said this is amazing. During this period, they followed your instructions and Jin Shui was in a coma without eating or drinking, yet he was still alive."
It's just that rehydration salts and electrolyte solutions are too labor-intensive. Each time I have to use a lot of things, steam and bake them, just to get such a small bottle of rehydration salts and electrolyte solutions.
The name of this pharmacy is so strange, Lian'er finds it hard to pronounce.
Hua Jin nodded with satisfaction,
"Since the experiment is available, let the engineering department refine the mold so that it can be mass-produced. At the same time, according to the recipe I gave, we can increase the production of rehydration salt and electrolyte solution."
Regarding the preparation of rehydration salts and electrolyte solutions, they are simple recipes after the end of the world, which can be injected intravenously into the human body to achieve the effect of maintaining life characteristics.
Hua Jin had not thought about making these things at first, but Jin Shui was a hot potato that forced her to make this set of things.
Since it could be used in ancient times, Hua Jin thought of mass-producing an ancient version of the assembly line and sending it to the front line for Li Yunqing.
Although it is not as miraculous as the medicines of later generations, it is better than nothing if it is placed on the front line and infused with some electrolyte solution to the soldiers...
And under the same full moon, the Beirong people, who had been beaten by the Shence Army and were reduced to only one hundred thousand soldiers, had retreated to the hinterland of Beirong.
Adaoer rushed into Chief Qu Le's tent and roared at him,
"Aren't you the youngest captain in Tianjing Kingdom? We spent a lot of money to bring you from Tianjing Kingdom to Beirong. We didn't want you to keep losing battles."
Three hundred thousand elite men of the Beirong army were left dead in the fields in defeat after defeat.
No Beirong person wants to believe this result.
Chang Lechang didn't believe it either.
His face was covered with stubble that he had no time to clean up, and he kept shaking his head,
"No, the Shence Army only has more than 20,000 people, and I have 300,000 Beirong Army. How could I lose? I don't believe it, I don't believe it!"
This result is simply devastating, but the fact is that he is indeed losing the battle.
Adaoer was so angry that he punched him.
After knocking Qu Lechang to the ground, Adaoer sat on the ground and cried bitterly.
"Now the Shence Army has 50,000 people, and they are fighting more and more people, but our elite troops in Beirong have been defeated."
"The king's intention is to seek peace."
The Beirong royal family is no longer willing to continue to consume, and its intention to seek peace is becoming more and more obvious.
However, upon hearing the word "seeking peace", Qu Lechang suddenly woke up and shouted,
"No, we cannot ask for peace. Scholars can be killed but not humiliated. Li Yunqing has taken away my fiancée. I will not ask for peace."
Adaoer wished he could give Qu Le a few punches to wake him up.
"Because of your unwillingness and eagerness for quick success, two hundred thousand of our Beirong men died."
"No, no Adao'er, it's all Li Yunqing's fault. What's my fault? It's not my fault."
Qu Lechang could not accept his mistake at all. He suddenly remembered something and said:
"I remember that there is a miasma forest ahead? We can lead the Shence Army into that miasma forest."
"What's the use? The miasma inside can't poison people at all. At most, it will cause vomiting and diarrhea."
Suddenly, Adaoer's words stopped, he looked at Qu Lechang, and smiled on his face,
"Yes, they have suffered from vomiting and diarrhea for a long time and cannot eat anything at all. When their bodies are extremely weak, we will fight back. We are not afraid that we will not be able to destroy the 50,000 Shence Army."
This is definitely an excellent plan. Now that the Shence Army has penetrated deep into the hinterland of Tianjing Kingdom, Li Yunqing is not familiar with the terrain of Beirong at all.
If we can take advantage of this opportunity and finally kill all the Shence Army, it will be a good deal.
The Beirong Army began to prepare intensively, but the Shence Army gathered around several large boxes and looked at them curiously.
Li Yunqing was wearing black armor and was wiping the cicada-wing knife in his hand in the open space. A soldier came forward.
"Your Majesty, your Majesty has sent many boxes of strange things this time."
He presented some gadgets and dragged a doctor over, saying:
"This is the doctor sent by your Majesty. He said he would teach our military doctors how to use these things."
Li Yunqing raised his narrow eyes and looked. There was a leather tube, a few embroidery needles, and a strange glass bottle on the tray in front of him.
He slightly raised his handsome face, which still had tiny drops of blood, and asked the doctor who sent Hua Jin,
"What is this for?"
"When I replied to the prince, the empress said that this is used to replenish physical strength when you can't eat."
This is probably the effect. The doctor once participated in the research on the toxins in Jin Shui's body. Anyway, using this set of things, Jin Shui is living well so far.
The empress said that Jin Shui must be kept alive until the poison in Jin Shui's body can be researched and the antidote can be found.
Li Yunqing's sharp eyes reflected a smile, and his tone was slightly softer and doting.
"Keep it, she is used to making these weird gadgets."
Although she didn't know what use these things would have, Hua Jin sent a dozen cars to the front line, but it was much better for her to think about him than to be happy in Guqizhou and forget about him.
After receiving Hua Jin's gifts, the army continued to pursue the Beirong army. However, just after passing the natural barrier, Li Yunqing felt that something was wrong. The Beirong people seemed to intend to lead them somewhere.
He decided not to pursue the victory, lest he fall into Qu Lechang's trap.
