In the Hanchun Palace, under Zhao Yan's insistence, a remote room was specially set up for the accompanying doctors to use during the day.

When Chu Heng and Lu Ting entered the house one after the other, someone inside happened to be studying some strange herbs that the Gangtuo palace people bought from the market.

"Doctor Chu, take a look at what this is?" A doctor came carefully holding a strange-looking plant, "I have never seen this herb in Dayan before, does Doctor Chu recognize it?"

Most of the accompanying doctors are physicians from the Imperial Medical Office, and they have a lot of experience. However, due to historical and traffic reasons, the circulation of many medicinal materials is far inferior to that in modern society. Naturally, some unrecognizable medicinal materials often occur.

Chu Heng glanced at it and smiled: "This is called red and blue flowers, also called red flowers. The seeds can be planted in February, and it is not yet April, so the flowers should be last year. I don't know what method I used, Well preserved."

Safflower was originally produced in the Western Regions, and was later substituted into the Central Plains by the Silk Road.

Dayan does not produce safflower, so with the entry of caravans, safflower also flowed into Dayan, but because of the long distance from the place of production, the price is relatively high.Generally only rich households and officials would use this thing.

Physicians from the imperial medical office have seen smashed and dried safflower, but it is normal that they cannot recognize the whole plant.

If grandpa hadn't planted safflower in the past, Chu Heng himself might not have recognized it.

"Is that a very valuable medicinal material?"

Seeing people holding the red and blue flower and watching excitedly, Lu Ting's dark blue eyes flashed with surprise.

He didn't know medical skills, so he took whatever medicine the military doctors gave him in the military camp.Even if he recognized Chu Heng, he only knew that every medicine he gave was extremely effective, but he didn't know what kind of medicine was used behind it.

"Ah, for Dayan, it's quite expensive. But Dayue's is probably a commonly used medicine." Chu Heng said, leading people into a small pavilion.In the pavilion, medicinal herbs that need to be dried are spread in baskets, exuding medicinal fragrance.

"It is recorded in the book that postpartum women are dizzy with blood in their mouths, the blood in the abdomen is endless and the colic is endless, and those who are stillborn can be cured by drinking red and blue flowers with wine."

Lu Ting asked: "For women?"

Chu Heng thought for a while and said, "It's not just for women."

"Available for men?"

"Blood is produced in the pericardium and stored in the liver, which belongs to Chong Ren. Safflower juice is similar to it, so it can flow the blood of men and the menstrual water of women. If it is more, it will circulate blood, and if it is less, it will nourish blood."

Chu Heng paused, touched his nose: "It's in the book."

Lu Ting was thoughtful: "This thing seems to be everywhere outside the palace."

"It should be." Chu Heng nodded, "I see that the princess is short of energy and blood, so you can use more red flowers..."

"Since the blood of men can be used, how about using it on Helian's body?"

Lu Ting's voice was very low, Chu Heng was slightly puzzled, and quickly came back to his senses, shaking his head: "Red and blue flowers are pungent, warm in nature, and more importantly, they are non-toxic."

Lu Ting was silent.Chu Heng thought for a long time, and finally asked, "Want to poison?"

"Well." Lu Ting replied in a calm voice, "Once King Hulun dies, there will inevitably be disputes among the princes of the Dayue family. It's easy to get back."

The princes headed by He Liankun have always maintained brotherhood on the surface, but everyone knows it secretly, and there are constant disputes.

Chu Heng once read in the book that many small countries outside the customs do not have fixed capitals, and most of them are composed of many tribes. Members of the royal family do not abide by the rules of establishing the elders and establishing the sons like the Han people.To become the heir of a country, besides identity, what matters most is the forces behind it.

He Liankun has the influence of his mother clan, but his other brothers also have influence behind his back.After all, the families of the six wives of King Hulun are not ordinary families.On the contrary, if Zhao Yan is pregnant with a child, judging from the current Dayan, she might be the weakest one.

"If the princess is favored and wants to poison King Hulun to death, she can plan carefully."

If you want to be favored, you must not only prevent others from knowing about the poisoning, but also prevent yourself from being poisoned to death by other jealous women in the palace.

Lu Ting responded briefly: "The fourth princess is not favored."

Chu Heng nodded: "Not being favored has the advantage of not being favored."

Lu Ting frowned: "Not being favored does not mean safety."

Chu Heng was a little confused.After all, he is not an ancient, and his understanding of some things is still in a different state from that of Lu Ting.He only saw that Zhao Yan was not favored, so that he could avoid making a fuss with King Hulun, but he didn't see anything more.

He couldn't help asking: "Why is it not safe? King Hulun set his sights on others. Doesn't the princess need to be hated because of her youth and beauty?"

Lu Ting said: "No, let's not say that the other six wives of King Hulun all have powerful mother clans. In order to fight for the interests of the royal power, they will definitely attack anyone who can. Just to say, the identity of the princess, Dayan sent her away for the sake of peace. The little girl who came here has no power to restrain the chicken, once King Hulun decides not to be courteous with Dayan, he will be the first to kill the princess to demonstrate to the royal family of Dayan."

Chu Heng: "!!!"

Chu Heng suddenly remembered that those princesses whom he had seen in the book, apart from being unaccustomed to the environment all the year round, hard to find their local accent, and dying early outside the customs, many of them became victims between the two countries because of political struggles. Died under the knife of the marriage partner.

Lu Ting sighed softly, and that sigh was especially clear in the quiet room.

"So, the most dangerous thing for the princess is not to be sent out by Dayan to marry her, but to be killed by King Hulun at any time?"

"Because King Hulun will not give up his purpose of embezzling Dayan just because of a woman. Even if he forgets about it because of his beauty for a while, with Helian Hun around, he will definitely remember it soon." Lu Ting said, " Helian Hun, who was willing to serve the previous eldest prince for so many years, has a very clear purpose in his heart, what he wants to do is not just to make King Hulun look at him more."

Chu Heng took a deep breath: "So."

He asked in a low voice: "Our plan, is it going to be changed?"

Lu Ting nodded: "Change. There is another person, I think, you need to meet her."

"Who?"

"Miss Liu."

Their original plan was to stay by the princess' side, beware of the surroundings, and wait for the opportunity to provide information to the Xishan camp together with the spies.

Right now, things have changed, and they need to make a new plan in the shortest possible time to ensure the safety of the princess and everything goes smoothly.

Chu Heng didn't recognize Mrs. Liu.After he left the Bieyun Villa, he had more contact with soldiers and men, and occasionally met some women seeking medical treatment, but he thought about it, no woman would come to Wutun to meet them.

Chu Heng thought about it for a long time, but he never thought that the "Liu Niangzi" that Lu Ting spoke of would be Liu Chen's lover Haitang.

Back when he knew that apart from his wife and concubines, Liu Chen had a friend whom he had known for many years, Chu Heng didn't know how to evaluate this matter.

But the different environment also made him used to people in a monogamous society, so he had to use an attitude of not agreeing but not denying it, and listened to the soldiers making fun of their superiors from time to time.

However, Chu Heng heard early in the morning that shortly after Guiyan City was broken, Hai Tang, who stayed in the city with a full city of prostitutes to delay the time for the people, died at the hands of those beasts.

People who are already dead, why would they...

King Hulun did not restrict the travel of people from Hanchun Palace.Zhao Yan also has a token in her hand, which allows her people to come and go before the palace gate is closed.

Chu Heng and Lu Ting went out of the palace with tokens on the grounds that they were going out to pick up what the owner needed.At dusk, in front of the people who were following and watching behind them, the two went straight to the family's shop to spend the night.

People in Hanchun Palace are not restricted from traveling, but there must be someone following and monitoring behind them.

Lu Ting went out of the palace once, but the people accompanying him did not notice that someone was following him.But he is different, martial arts practitioners have sharp eyes and ears, and there are people following behind, so naturally they cannot escape his eyes and ears.

Chu Heng asked for a room with the Hu language that he could barely communicate.Lu Ting had been standing behind him until he entered the room, and he couldn't feel the following eyes behind him.

"I'll take you to see Mrs. Liu at night." Lu Ting closed the door, "The people outside haven't gone far yet."

"Following? Did King Hulun find us all to watch?" Chu Heng touched his elbow subconsciously, with the arrow in his sleeve staying inside, "He doesn't trust us, I'm afraid For the princess, there is also surveillance."

Lu Ting suddenly laughed.

"Do you still remember the court ladies who were dragged to bed by King Hulun next to the princess? Killing those people now, or using excuses to transfer to other places, will obviously destroy the friendship between the two countries that is only superficial. If you become a concubine, even if your status is low, you can no longer serve the princess. At this time, it is best to put nails next to the princess when you call a bearded girl to serve her."

"So, everyone in the Hanchun Palace lives under the gaze of others."

Mrs. Liu lived in Helianhun's private residence.Behind the exotic buildings is a heavily guarded prince's mansion.There are many guards coming and going, all of them are strong and strong, with weapons in their hands, and they are not far from each other.

There are also guards patrolling the backyard at regular intervals, and when they pass Mrs. Liu's small courtyard, their footsteps are unconsciously light.Candles were already lit in the courtyard, and through the window, you could clearly see Mrs. Liu walking inside.

Since she was placed in the backyard, Mrs. Liu rarely went out.Occasionally, when he went out for a trip, Helian Hun's people would follow behind him.

He Lianhun obviously did not relax his monitoring of any Han people.

When the guards in the backyard were on shift, a black shadow like a wild cat lightly landed on the roof. After a few moves, it got into a window and closed it gently without making a sound.

"coming?"

A laughing voice sounded from inside the room.

Chu Heng straightened up.

He was wearing night clothes, standing next to Lu Ting who was also in night clothes, he looked particularly thin.

The speaker's voice was delicate and crisp. Seeing him get up and look over, there was some surprise in his laughter.

"Long time no see, Doctor Chu."

Chu Heng looked over.The woman sitting at the round table, her black eyes reflected the joy of meeting an old friend in a foreign land, and her not-young face could still vaguely see the charm of a girl.She sat in an excellent position, which happened to be able to block the candlelight and reflect the two of them on the window.

Everyone in Guiyan City once knew the lady, the oiran Haitang, even if she wore a barbarian's dress, she couldn't hide her aura that only belonged to Dayan.

"Baitang, the returning geese, met General Lu and Dr. Chu."

The author has something to say:

In fact, when I first wrote about the prostitutes who died in Guiyan City, I never thought of such a foreshadowing.It's just that after the pen was written, I suddenly felt that there should be a supporting role, using this most humble identity for a human being, to assist the protagonist to complete the most earth-shattering things.Therefore, there was Haitang, and there was Mrs. Liu who took the surname of her good friend and made her surname.
