Royal road

"The armies of the King of Chengdu and the King of Hejian are approaching, and they are about to besiege Luoyang! That's an army of 30, how can they hold it?!"

"Luoyang city is strong, how can the rebels take it? Not to mention that there is King Changsha sitting in the palace, the king of Changsha is very brave, and he will definitely defeat the rebels!"

"I don't think so! Now the leader is Lu Pingyuan. You must have heard of the famous Jiangdong Lu clan, right? I think it's better to kill Yang Xuanzhi and Huangfu Shang according to the document, and give Luoyang City to the King of Chengdu... "

"Bah! A person who even wants to kill the queen's father, would he respect His Majesty?! Letting such a rebellious minister and thief enter Luoyang, wouldn't he repeat the same mistakes as King Zhao! Now the morale in the city is high, and there are King Donghai and Duke Dongying accompanying him , if their personal soldiers march northward, they will definitely be able to control the situation!"

"King of the Eastern Sea? I don't think he may..."

The whispering stopped abruptly, and the two guards closed their mouths at the same time as they watched the man walking out of the hall slowly.As if he didn't hear their discussion, Jiang Da stepped out of the inner court and walked towards the Shaofu.

It has been more than a month since he arrived in Wangcheng, but Jiang Da is the same as when he first entered Luoyang, he is cautious in his words and deeds every day, and never talks too much.The great epidemic in Jinyang is rare in the world, and Duke Dongying dedicated it to the emperor as an invitation to favor.Typhoid fever has plagued the country for more than a hundred years, and all the princes in the court are very interested in this method, but more people just regard it as a good omen, rather than a good prescription that can save the people.Several officials of the medical office who went to Luoyang with him joined the noble relatives one after another, but he was left in the palace because of his dullness and being the head of the medical office.

However, the rules in the palace are so strict, and there have been various precedents for the prevention and treatment of the epidemic. What he can offer is only a few suggestions.Because of this, those cunning medical officials in the Shaofu put the burden of epidemic prevention on him.Who can guarantee everything about an epidemic?The burden on Jiang Da's shoulders became extremely heavy, forcing him to go to the palace every day to check all matters in the palace carefully.In the palace, most of them were well-informed gentry children, so he also heard the news of Luoyang's siege early on from the crowd.

This was simply worse than expected.If Luoyang City is broken, can he leave alive?Who would have thought that after a hard work that saved so many lives, they could only end up trapped in an isolated city.It was still grandfather who could see clearly that this Luoyang was not a good place.

Now we can only see how the guilds in the court will deal with it.Don't Dong Yinggong still have a strong army under his command?If they can lead them to rescue, maybe there is still a possibility of escape.It's a pity that these things are definitely beyond his control as a little medical officer.

Walking heavily, Jiang Da did not raise his head, and walked slowly along the tall city wall.

"Brother! Luoyang is under siege, why don't you let me recruit an army to go north to stop the King of Chengdu's advance?" Si Ma Teng sat on the mat and asked with fists clenched.He came to Luoyang just to ask for credit, but he was blocked in the city by the army, how could he not be furious? !Sima Ying is arrogant and domineering, and has long been feared by his elder brother. Isn't this the best opportunity to counterattack?

"It's too early." Sima Yue said with a faint smile, "Shidu is not a simple person. With only a hundred people, he can break into the palace and kill Qi Wang Jiong in one fell swoop. If it weren't for his trick, how could the King of Chengdu be trapped in Ye? What will happen to the city? Now that two tigers are fighting each other, why not take this opportunity to watch from the sidelines?"

Sima Teng reacted immediately: "Brother wants to..."

This is to make the two princes fight first and make a profit from it!Sima Ying has a strong army and a strong horse, but Sima Ai is also extremely brave. It is still difficult to determine who will win and who will lose.But one thing is for sure, no matter who wins, I'm afraid they will be seriously injured. By then, wouldn't they have the possibility to go further?They are all relatives of the emperor, so just because they are not the descendants of Emperor Wu, do they have to be far away from the great position?

Sima Yue shook his feather fan lightly: "Not busy. Dayi is still on our side, let's wait for them to decide the winner."

Slightly loosening his clenched fists, Sima Teng nodded and said, "Brother still thinks clearly. I will also walk around the hall to help you!"

Outside the high gate, the dust was flying, and teams of soldiers gathered, ready to face the death battle.Above the high hall, an undercurrent surges.

Beside the golden ears of corn, there are crowds of people.Regardless of men, women, old or young, everyone joined the ranks of the autumn harvest. The newly plowed fields outside Liang's mansion finally came to the harvest season.

In addition to a large amount of millet, beans, hemp, and sorghum are also planted in these fields. The experience summarized in the agricultural book has played a very good role. Even in severe drought, it has also given these hard-working farmers rich gifts.Such a harvest, not to mention a severe drought, may not be seen even if the weather is favorable.Ordinary people who depend on the sky for food, have never seen these methods of intensive cultivation. When many people bury their heads in the harvest, they don't live in their hearts to pray to the gods and Buddhas.

However, in the mansion, the "Buddha son" who was worshiped was full of clouds.

"Luoyang is besieged by the King of Chengdu?! Has Duke Dong Ying returned from Luoyang? Where are the medical workers in the medical office?"

When he got a negative answer, Liang Feng couldn't help standing up and pacing around the room.Hell, he thought that Mr. Dong Ying was there, and Jiang Da's trip to Luoyang was just a little aggrieved. Who would have thought that he would be directly trapped in the city!Didn't Luoyang just play a game last year?Why come again this year!Don't those idiots of the Sima family take a look at what's going on in the world? !

"Go to Jiang's mansion quickly and tell Doctor Jiang about this. I'll write another letter and ask Wang Zhongzheng." Now it's too late to think about anything, Liang Feng ordered quickly.I just hope that Wang Wen will save face and find a way to rescue Jiang Da.

Unexpectedly, a few days later, what he waited for was another news.

"This is the medical technique written by Doctor Jiang before his death. The Jiang family entrusted me to send it to the Lord Lang." A Liang carefully presented the box and said with his head bowed, "The head of the Jiang family also said that it was God's will that Jiang Da was trapped. , no need to remember, just ask the Lord to remember the previous promise."

Looking at the wooden box in front of him, Liang Feng was silent for a long time, and raised his hand to lift the lid.There is a scroll inside, which is not too thick, with four characters written on the top, "New Treatise on Febrile Diseases".The name is unremarkable, and the handwriting is also very crooked. I don't know if the writer exhausted his last strength.However, these four characters are more powerful than Mount Tai.

I handed over the knowledge of modern epidemic prevention to those two grandparents, but in the end he was the only one who lost his reputation, and one of the other two died of illness and the other was trapped.It was almost like a sharp satire, which made him feel like a thorn in his back.

"What did Wang Zhongzheng say?" Liang Feng asked in a low voice.

"Zhongzheng said that the rebel army has already approached the city, and now the roads to Luoyang are blocked, and they cannot enter the city."

Wang Wen also has family members in Luoyang City, so he would probably be powerless to say that.And Taiyuan Wang has said so, so what can he do?

In the end, Liang Feng said: "Send a letter to the county lord and ask him to help clear the pass on both sides. I will send some people to guard there. If the Luoyang soldiers retreat, I will go to the city to find people. Also, go to Fucheng immediately to find some carved Buddha statues Or the craftsmen of the tombstones, they said that the Liang Mansion was in urgent need, so they were recruited to the mansion!"

He was a little dazed by these two completely different orders, but A Liang still complied and withdrew.

Liang Feng took a deep breath, took out the volume of medical books from the box, picked up a pen and paper, and began to copy.Copying from dawn to dusk in one breath, Yiyan, who had been on the sidelines for a long time, finally couldn't stand it anymore, and knelt straight in front of Liang Feng's case.

"My lord, it's time for you to rest! It doesn't matter if you copy this book tomorrow!"

Liang Feng paused his pen and raised his wrist: "Tomorrow is fine too? Who knows what will happen tomorrow?"

"Tomorrow will still be tomorrow! With me by my side, nothing will happen!" Yi Yan stared angrily and clenched his fists.

Hearing these slightly childish words, Liang Feng smiled: "No, Yiyan, tomorrow may not be as usual. If I don't complete these things within my ability, I'm afraid I will regret it for the rest of my life."

"But the lord has already tried his best..." Yi Yan stared at the slightly trembling hand holding the pen, and said forcefully, "If you fight for this day, and your body is broken, who can fulfill your wish for the lord?"

These words touched Liang Feng subtly, he raised his hand slightly, and put it aside: "Yes... one day, how can it be used." The conversation changed, and he suddenly said, "Yiyan, you said your father He was originally a Buddha carver."

"Yes!" Seeing the lord stop writing, Yi Yan felt relieved and replied neatly.

"Then, are there any similar Buddha carving craftsmen in your clan?"

"Yes, there are about ten households. However, there has been a severe drought in my hometown recently, so I don't know how many can be left."

"Go and recruit them all. I'm useful." Liang Feng said.

Yi Yan nodded vigorously, and asked again: "Do you only want Buddha carvers?"

These words seemed to have awakened Liang Feng, he suddenly frowned: "Are there still young and strong in your clan?"

"There shouldn't be many. Most of them are left to take care of the old and weak at home. The rest have fled famine."

"Then, are they willing to come to the Liang Mansion to vote for me?" Liang Feng realized that he had forgotten a very serious problem, Jie people are also Hu people, and they were originally servants of the Huns.If the Huns raised their troops, would these Jie people take refuge in the past?

"I can recruit them! Your lord treats people very well, and they will definitely be willing to serve you." Yi Yan's eyes lit up, and he didn't forget those compatriots in his hometown who were starving and being bullied by the government.If the lord is willing to take them in, he will surely be able to train these people to become an indestructible army!

"Very good, 300 more people can be resettled near Liang's mansion. Those young and strong with families and families, feel free to recruit them!" Liang Feng said immediately.

If these people will be forced to turn against those idiots of the Sima family sooner or later, then it is better to raise them first and become a backup army.If everyone is as brave as Yi Yan, this group of people will definitely be a powerful new force.With the addition of the infantry composed of refugees, his forces would not be so empty.

Yiyan immediately understood what the lord meant.The lord needs a safe and controllable force.Only by dragging the family and the mouth can we set up farms and train troops with peace of mind.And this will save the lives of countless young and old, how could he refuse!

Throwing the pen on the inkstone, Liang Feng let out a long sigh of relief.Now that the troubled times have reached this point, what is he still worried about?Continue to recruit troops and expand your influence!And money...

Looking down, he looked at the unfinished volume of medical skills in front of him, and slightly raised the corners of his mouth.If you like Fengya, I will give it to you.As long as you can give me the things that can save people's lives!
