December [-], Yonghe Palace

The fourteenth elder brother came to greet Concubine De, Concubine De took his hand and sat together on the soft couch in the inner hall.

"What's the matter? Does your Huang Ama intend to send troops?"

"The military newspaper has just arrived in Beijing, Huang Ama is still discussing with the cabinet ministers, and my son has just come out of the Qianqing Palace," Elder Fourteen picked up the tea bowl and took a big sip.

"Emiang, don't worry, my son just wrote the military policy for the Southwest Frontier and submitted it. After Huang Ama read it, she agreed with my thoughts."

"Really? That's good..."

Concubine De was still a little surprised, but she calmed down a little after hearing Yinti's words, "I'm not worried about your military talent, it's just that there must be some people who can speak for you by your Huang Ama's side." After thinking about it, Er Niang decided to use Wu Ya's connections to contact a few cabinet ministers. If your Huang Ama really wants to send someone to the border, I can recommend it for you."

"What is this for?"

Yinti was a little strange, "Emiang, you are in the harem, so it's not good to interfere too much in political affairs."

"Er Niang is not trying to interfere in political affairs," Concubine De was a little anxious, "Er Niang is worried for you, if this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity is missed, I don't know when the next time will be."

"What is Er Niang worried about? Who is more suitable than a son among the princes?"

Yinti is extremely confident, "The third brother spends all day in the library, the fourth brother is now imprisoned in the Yanqing Palace, the fifth brother and the seventh brother are not suitable for traveling far, let alone the eighth brother. This border war is different from the past. , the imperial court has already suffered a defeat, and the son thinks that Huang Ama will not send only one minister or ordinary clan to go. Otherwise, it is inevitable that Selen and Erlunt will be divided and defeated one by one tragedy."

"It's true to say that," Concubine De still felt uneasy, "But Er Niang is afraid that your Huang Ama still has your fourth brother in mind."

"Why did Er Niang say that?"

"On the day of Laba, the Yanqing Palace caught fire, and your fourth brother was assassinated by an assassin..."

"I know, I asked afterward, but fortunately, fourth brother is fine," Yinti thought of this, and his face turned dark again.

"But do you know?" Concubine De raised her head to look at Fourteenth Elder Brother, "On the day of the accident in Yanqing Palace, it was Aoge who led people to arrive first."

"Age?"

"Yes, right now Aoge is leading a team to guard the Yanqing Palace, do you know what this means?" Concubine De's voice couldn't help but get a little serious.

"Your fourth brother did not have any accidents, and Emiang is very glad. However, your Huang Ama secretly sent Aoge to protect the Yanqing Palace. In these years, besides the one from Xian'an Palace, which other prince has this honor? ?”

Yinti fell silent and lowered his head.

Concubine De stretched out her hand and patted his arm, "It's not Erniang who is worrying about the sky, your fourth brother has been valued by your emperor Ama the most these years. Therefore, this trip to the border is probably your only chance. Only you make military achievements , to establish prestige in the army, and when you come back, you will have the bargaining chip to fight with your fourth brother."

"My son knows." Elder Fourteen took a deep breath, "Don't worry, Er Niang, I will definitely seize this opportunity."

Outside Yanqing Hall

"Please pardon the thirteenth brother," Ao Ge still had a stern and selfless expression, "The emperor has a decree that no one can disturb Prince Yong's Qingxiu, brother, please go back."

Yinxiang hesitated to speak, and looked at the gate of Yanqing Palace a few times, but finally he didn't make things difficult for the guards guarding the gate.

However, as soon as the thirteenth elder brother turned around here, a dexterous figure clung to the base of the wall and ran towards the gate of Yanqing Hall.

Aoge took three steps and made two steps, and as soon as the man reached the door knocker, he dragged him back by his collar.

"Awkward! How dare you pull my elder brother's clothes! I'll tell Huang Ama when I turn around!"

"Aoge is acting in accordance with the emperor's order, and please forgive me, Brother Eighteen."

"Yinjin!" Only then did Yinxiang see clearly that it was Xiao Shiba.

"Brother Thirteen," Yin Jin ran up to Yin Xiang with a mournful face, "That stone face is hard for you, isn't it? I've been here seven or eight times in the past few days, but he just won't let me in!"

"Forget it," Yin Xiang walked out holding Yin Jin's shoulders, "Huang Ama has a plan first, and they can't help it."

"But I want to see how the fourth brother is doing." Yinzhen turned back and glared at Aoge again, "I heard that five assassins came that night! Although everyone said that the fourth brother was fine, I didn't see anyone. Don't worry about it."

"Brother Thirteen, Yinjin!"

The seventeenth elder brother Yinli walked over from the side of the road, and when Yinzhen saw him, he lowered his face.

"Why are you so disrespectful? It was agreed that the soldiers would be divided into two groups. Where did you go?"

Yin Li smiled at Yin Jin embarrassedly, "I went, but I was caught by the guards before I ran two steps. I wanted to call you, but you ran too fast."

Yinzhen snorted through his nose, angry and annoyed.

Yinxiang was so teased by the two of them that when he was about to turn around, he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his leg.

"hiss--"

Yinxiang was in so much pain that he bent down.

"Brother Thirteen!"

Yinzhen hurriedly supported Yinxiang, and Yinli hurried over.

"Brother Thirteen, what's wrong with you? Did you get hurt somewhere?" Yin Li asked.

"Did you beat them? I'll settle the score with them!"

"Hey, Elder Brother Eighteen, stay here." Deng Yu, who had been following Yinxiang, hurriedly stopped Yinjin, "How dare those guards? It's an old wound on our master's leg, and it's been hurting for days."

"Why is the old injury so serious?" Yinli helped Yinxiang go to the pavilion of Yuhua Pavilion and sit down little by little.

"It's okay, it's just that I accidentally touched it just now, just take a rest for a while."

Yin Xiang's face was covered with sweat from the pain, and then shook his head at Deng Yu.

Deng Yu bit her lip and didn't dare to speak again.

"The elder brothers are well." It was also a coincidence that Ding Qi, who came to check the pulse of the fourth elder brother, happened to pass by Yuhua Pavilion.

"Physician Ding," Yin Yin saw Ding Qi, and hurriedly dragged him over, "Show me Thirteenth Brother, it hurts so much just now."

"No need," Yinxiang hurriedly refused, "I have an old injury, and I have seen many imperial physicians. Is the imperial physician Ding here to diagnose the pulse of the fourth brother? Come in quickly."

Ding Qi was being dragged by the eighteenth elder brother, and it was not right to leave for a while, or not to leave.

Yinzhen didn't care whether Yinxiang had any secrets, he always spoke bluntly, "Everyone is here, and it's not too late, Brother Thirteen let him have a look. Dingqi's medical skills are second to none in the Imperial Hospital." Top-notch, if he has a way."

"That's right," Yin Li also assisted, "Brother Thirteen, please let Imperial Physician Ding take a look. If you really touch the wound, it would be good for the imperial physician to re-apply the medicine."

Ding Qi is used to seeing all kinds of illnesses, seeing Brother Thirteen's perplexed expression, he took a step forward and said, "Why don't Brother Thirteen and my servant go to the side hall to check it out, there is a lot of dust outside and the weather is cold , and save the wound from being stained."

"Yes, yes, let's go to the side hall," Yinzhen directly decided for the others, and then pointed to the eunuchs who were serving, "Hurry up and go to the charcoal basin, fetch hot water, and warm up the room!"

Yinxiang really didn't want outsiders to see his wounds, but in this situation, it was really hard for him to refuse.

After entering the side hall of Yuhua Pavilion, Ding Qi took advantage of the fact that it was difficult for him to clean up his wounds, and left Yinli and Yinzhen outside.

Yinxiang was somewhat relieved, and Deng Yu helped Yinxiang roll up his trouser legs, exposing the wound.

Even though Ding Qi had seen a lot of big and small injuries, she was surprised when she first saw Brother Thirteen's wounds.

Around the knees, there were malignant sores on the upper and lower sides. Although the sores had been treated with medicine, many of them were still ruptured and pus, which was terrible.

"This, this." Ding Qi moved closer to take a closer look, "This is a blood ulcer. It must be that my elder brother was injured at the beginning, and the wound was not treated properly to leave poisonous blood on the skin. But, Which imperial physician can be so negligent?"

"What happened back then was also a mistake..."

Yinxiang smiled very easygoingly, "I'll let Doctor Lao Ding help me deal with it, and I'll be fine when I go back home to recuperate for a while."

"Yes, but if you don't care about it, you will often relapse in the future."

Ding Qi is well aware of the dangers of this kind of sore, "The longer the time, the more poisonous blood will be produced. In the future, my brother's leg..."

"I know," Yin Xiang didn't let Ding Qi continue, "Many imperial physicians have told me about it, and I see it. Life and death are fate, Imperial Physician Ding doesn't need to think too much."

Ding Qi didn't feel very well, took out the powder, and said, "Brother, when this sore recurs, you must not touch water, keep your clothes dry, try not to walk, and don't overwork yourself. If you can Keeping your body strong and energetic may prevent the spread of poisonous blood. But if your body is sick and too weak, the poisonous sores will become more severe, and it will be dangerous at that time."

"I remember, thank the imperial doctor for reminding me."

Yinxiang was still smiling slightly, only Deng Yu, who was waiting on the sidelines, looked sad.

Yanqing Palace

Ding Qi checked the fourth prince's pulse, while Su Wei sat beside him, flipping through his medicine box.

"My lord Fu Nai asked Weichen to bring you a message. The military newspaper from Tibet arrived in Beijing yesterday. None of the two armies were spared. Even the 1000 people led by Sichuan Admiral Kangtai were trapped and killed by the black hat lama, and none of them survived. "

"It's something I expected a long time ago," the fourth elder brother sighed softly, "After the New Year's Eve at the latest, Huang Ama will send someone to the border..."

"Don't think about those things, we can't protect ourselves now."

Grandpa Su has been very lethargic these past few days, "I said Ding Qi, we have known each other for a long time, why don't you have a tacit understanding with our family at all."

Ding Qi laughed dryly, and snatched back his medicine box from Su Wei's arms, "It looks tight outside, I dare not bring anything small, for fear of offending the people in front of the imperial court, next time even villains are not allowed to come in .”

Su Wei puffed up his cheeks and stopped talking to him.

Ding Qi said to the fourth elder brother again, "That's right, my lord, I just passed by the Yuhua Pavilion and met the thirteenth elder brother, the seventeenth elder brother and the eighteenth elder brother. I think they all came to visit the prince, but they couldn't Come in."

"The king knows," the fourth elder brother leaned on the back of the chair, "Little Shiba has been coming here these days, and every time he has to yell for a while. Next time you see him, tell him not to come again, and make trouble." Make people uneasy."

Ding Qi lowered his head, and then said again, "It's just that, just now, my minister just happened to encounter Brother Thirteen's old illness recurring, so he checked the wound for Brother Thirteen."

"Yinxiang's leg injury has recurred again?" The fourth elder brother frowned, and Su Wei hurried over.

"How is it? Is it serious?" Su Wei asked.

Ding Qi considered it for a while, and said bluntly, "The condition is very bad, and it's not bad at the moment. It's just that the festering disease has now turned into a malignant sore, which is hidden in the body of Brother Thirteen. None of them can be cured, and after a long time, the poisonous blood spreads to the lungs, and Brother Thirteen may not only suffer from bad behavior, but also damage his lifespan."

"Is there no other way to cure it?" the fourth elder brother asked, "Or is there anyone in the folk who is good at treating this kind of sore?"

"Weichen came from the folks. This kind of sore is also called ghost face sore. There are people who can cure it, but very few..."

Ding Qi thought for a while, then suddenly clapped his hands and said, "By the way, I heard before that there is a doctor in the suburbs of Beijing who is good at thirteen needles from the ghost gate, and he once cured ghost face sores."
