The army in the barracks was resting. Xiao Jingyu looked at the map and thought about the enemy's next move.He suddenly heard someone calling from outside the tent, and he quickly shouted: "Come in."

The little soldier came into the account and said quickly: "General Qi, two carriages came from outside the camp, with the mark of the palace, saying that they came to the camp to deliver things under the order of the princess."

Xiao Jingyu raised his eyebrows, "Is it something from the princess? Did you say what it was?" There are also two carriages?What exactly is it?

Xiao Bing replied hesitantly, "It is said to be wine...Alcohol. And there is a doctor in the car, who is said to be here to teach military doctors to use alcohol to cure diseases."

Alcohol?Or wine?Now it's wartime, and alcohol is banned in the army, how could the mansion send alcohol.And there is a doctor who can cure diseases with alcohol.Could it be Qu Zhishui, but it is impossible for Qu Zhishui to go out in this weather.Not to mention coming to the barracks.

The more Xiao Jingyu thought about it, the more he didn't understand, but he still raised his hand and said, "Let the carriage come in first."

The soldier left in response.

After thinking about it for a while, Xiao Jingyu went out of the camp, and went to see what was brought over.If it is wine, it will still have to be sent back to the mansion later.At this time, he must lead by example and not drink alcohol.

The two carriages slowly drove into the open space in the camp one after the other.The cold wind howled, but the surrounding soldiers on duty did not look sideways and stood firmly at their posts.

Xiao Jingyu stood in front of the tent, watching the carriage stop.He looked carefully, the coachman on the carriage and the surrounding guards were all from the palace, and he ruled out that this was the enemy's trick.

The curtain of the carriage was opened, and Xiao Jingyu saw Qu Zhishui quickly jumped out of the carriage with a white face, followed by a slow-moving angelica.

Xiao Jingyu frowned, it's fine that Qu Zhishui was willing to come to the barracks, why did he bring his little apprentice along.This military camp is no better than a palace, and it is really not suitable for children to stay here.

Before he frowned, he saw Qu Zhishui coming straight towards him, and said while jumping: "Hurry up, my lord, where is your camp, take me there quickly, I'm going to freeze to death outside. "

Xiao Jingyu stopped what he was going to ask, so he had no choice but to bring Qu Zhishui to the tent first.Wait for him to warm up before continuing to ask questions.

As soon as Qu Zhishui entered the camp, he lay down in front of the brazier to warm up the fire, and when his palms were a little warm, he remembered something, and quickly asked Dang Gui, who was walking behind, to come over to warm up with the fire.

So what Xiao Jingyu saw was the picture of the master and the apprentice leaning together to warm up the fire.This made Xiao Jingyu even more puzzled. He knew how afraid Qu Zhishui was of the cold, but if he was so afraid of the cold, he had to come to the barracks, so there must be something important.

Xiao Jingyu first poured a cup of tea, and then asked, "Why are you here? At the beginning, my king asked you to come to the barracks to guide the military doctors in the summer, but you refused. Now it's the cold winter months, you are risking It’s coming with the wind and cold. And it’s not worth it if you come here alone, and you also brought Angelica with you, do you treat this military camp like a joke?”

Qu Zhishui regained his composure, touched the table, and poured himself a cup of tea, but when he saw that the tea was not hot at all, he gave up wanting to drink it.

As soon as the cup was put down, Qu Zhishui began to be picky, "Why don't you even have a cup of hot water? Also, when you invited me, I said that the military doctor only needs to apply a simple bandage. Some of their superb medical skills are useless on this battlefield."

Xiao Jingyu raised his eyebrows, "Then why are you here? If there is nothing wrong, you should take your apprentice back to the palace as soon as possible. This is a military camp, and war may break out at any time now. There will be chaos, but no one will care about it." you."

Qu Zhishui touched her nose, "I came here to help you, you should thank me. Although I said at the beginning that I don't need to teach military doctors, but now I can. And Angelica followed me to study medicine, now is a good time to study opportunity."

Seeing Xiao Jingyu's distrustful eyes, Qu Zhishui said quickly: "And I'm here to deliver something to you under the order of the princess. It's the alcohol in the car behind. It's a good thing, and it's very useful. At least there are these alcohols." , I am afraid that the casualty rate of your soldiers can be reduced a little."

Xiao Jingyu was shocked and said, "Is this really true?"

Qu Zhishui patted her chest and assured, "Of course, otherwise why would I have to work so hard to come to you. Besides, I have a letter from the princess to you." After speaking, he took out the letter from his bosom and handed it to Xiao Jingyu.

After waiting for Xiao Jingyu to receive the letter, he hurriedly said, "Quickly ask someone to send all the alcohol to the military doctor's wounded patients. I will also take Angelica to the wounded patients' place to have a look. Go early, and you can Can see the effect of this alcohol sooner."

Xiao Jingyu heard that he didn't have time to read the family letter in his hand, so he hurriedly called out to the soldier Daman outside to ask Qu Zhishui to lead the way to the wounded patient.He then arranged for someone to lead two small soldiers to protect Qu Zhishui and follow orders by the way.

After everything was arranged properly, Xiao Jingyu had time to check the letter in his hand.He looked at the letter, but was in no hurry to open it.He usually finds out about the affairs of the mansion every few days, but he has been a little busy recently, and the news came a little slower. He did not expect alcohol to be delivered from the mansion.

Xiao Jingyu looked at the letter and thought that this was the first time the princess wrote to him, and it was indeed a letter from home.I just don't know what's written in it.The envelope was unremarkable and there was no writing on it, but he still opened the seal by rubbing it.

"My lord, seeing the letter is like meeting you, how is your health?"

The corners of Xiao Jingyu's lips raised unconsciously. He looked at the unpretentious words on the letter, and wondered whether the princess' expression when writing this letter was like what was written in the letter. He didn't know how to write it. At that time, his face should have distressed.

After reading the letter, Xiao Jingyu realized the function of alcohol. It turned out that it was used to clean the wound and prevent infection.This can save the soldiers from suffering a lot.And this alcohol has never been heard of by him, it is probably another surprise brought by the princess.

And he also understood why Qu Zhishui braved the cold to come to the barracks.After all, although he is afraid of the cold, he is still a genius doctor, and he has an obsession with pharmacology that no one else has.

This alcohol can have these miraculous effects, he probably couldn't wait to take a closer look.And there happened to be these wounded in the barracks, and alcohol was also prepared for the wounded, so of course he came.

When Xiao Jingyu saw what was written in the letter, the few cans of spirits that were supposed to be given away were not delivered because the barracks prohibited alcohol during the war, and he felt a little bit disappointed.Although he is not addicted to alcohol, he is somewhat curious about this kind of alcohol, which is stronger than other alcohols.

Then looking down, the princess wrote some small things that happened after she left the mansion.Although it was just a few small things scattered, he probably wouldn't pay attention to them at ordinary times.But after what the princess wrote, he seemed to be able to feel the mood of the princess at that time.

Then the letter wrote about the method of purifying spirits, and the princess wanted to start a business with this, just like the salt and sugar business at the beginning.The princess provides the method and enjoys the share.

And the alcohol is extracted from burning knives and Shouquan wine bought at how much money.In words, I feel a little distressed for spending so much money.So I also thought about selling wine to make money.

Although Xiao Jingyu didn't understand how to turn ordinary wine into strong wine, he saw the princess's obsession with money.The princess didn't know if she didn't have much money before, but now she especially loves to make money.

Xiao Jingyu shook his head and laughed. It seems that Wang Hao's letter to inquire this time is mainly about the share.There is also the matter of how to promote spirits afterwards.

"When the weather is cold, the prince remembers to add clothes. I also hope that the prince is healthy and everything goes well."

At the end of the letter, a pattern was drawn, just three circular arcs, like a smiling face.

Looking at this smiling face, the corners of Xiao Jingyu's mouth turned up. Is the princess expressing her happiness to me?

After reading the entire letter, Xiao Jingyu felt better.He was holding the letter paper and wanted to put it back in the envelope, but he turned his head and picked it up to read it again.He didn't put the letter back into the envelope until he read it the second time.

Since he received a letter from home, he should reply.Xiao Jingyu was thinking this way, but before he got to the case, he heard someone report from outside the tent.

He immediately calmed down and asked, "What's the matter? Come in and talk."

The personal guard Daman quickly came in and said: "General, my subordinates have already arranged for someone to unload the alcohol and put it at the military doctor's office. It's just that there are two earthen pots. Doctor Qu said that it's not alcohol, but it's a special surprise for you from the princess." The subordinates did not dare to delay, so they brought it here."

Xiao Jingyu looked at the two clay pots in front of Daman. The pots were not big, just like the usual small wine jars.Xiao Jingyu lifted the seal of the jar, and a scent of wine wafted out of his nostrils.This fragrance is a bit like burning knives, but the taste is stronger than burning knives.

Xiao Jingyu was sure, this is no surprise, these are two jars of wine.He thought of the spirit that was purified with a burning knife in the letter written by the princess, and it was probably this.But the princess also wrote in the letter that because she knew that alcohol was banned during the war, she did not send wine.

Therefore, it was Qu Zhishui who sent the wine here on purpose.Xiao Jingyu didn't know whether to accept it or not.On the one hand, he should lead by example, and should not drink at this time.On the one hand, he also thought that this was the wine specially left by the princess and was intended to be given to him.When he read the letter and said that there was no wine delivered, he was still a little curious and disappointed.

Now that the wine was in front of his eyes, Xiao Jingyu hesitated for a while, but decided to accept it first.But he didn't drink it, so he just took it and put it in the box and locked it up.After all, this was a gift that the princess was supposed to give, and he just got it ahead of time.

After making this decision, Xiao Jingyu felt refreshed physically and mentally.He waved back Daman and found a low box to pack two cans of wine himself.Then put the padlock on the box, and cover it with a piece of sackcloth, pretending that this is just a box for sundries.

After finishing everything, Xiao Jingyu sat in front of the desk, ready to reply to the letter.Spread the letter paper, pour some water onto the inkstone.He rubbed the ink again a few times, and after checking that the ink color was even, he picked up the pen and dipped in the ink.The hair on the tip of the pen was soaked with ink, he carefully plucked out a hair that was sticking out, and was about to write with the pen.

Coincidentally, at this time, another voice came from outside the tent.
