Chapter 20 [Life and death, but flesh and bones]
Fan Qiang is a very careful person. Since Bai Dong despised the ragged military tent of the king, he has thought it was the biggest insult. So recently he has been working hard on the broken tent, removing the colorful patches and sewing them with dry sheepskin bit by bit. The skill is so delicate that Ying Lian's close guards can stick their tongues out.
I used to know that Fan Bo is so skillful in swordsmanship, and even Li Di is so proud of killing embryos like Li Di. Unexpectedly, he is still strong and gentle, and he is also a great success in sewing work. Speaking of our men in Daqin, aren’t Jing Jian’s most powerful sewing skills? I didn’t think Fan Bo is the real master who is hidden!
After sewing the last piece of skin, Fan Qiang admired his work with some pride. Unfortunately, he didn't know much about literature, otherwise he should have recited it in literature. He felt a little regretful. Suddenly, he heard the Lord call his name: "Fan Qiang, has Mimi been sent? I'm a little hungry."
The white mushy that had just been out of the cage was quickly sent into the tent, bigger than what I had seen before, and had been cut open from it; Fan Qiang took out a round mutton patty from a bronze cauldron, gently clamped it into two mushy mushy, brushed it with a layer of lard on it, then put a piece of tender white lettuce leaves, and finally sprinkled with some fine salt produced in Qiguo, and handed it to Ying Lian with a smile: "Your master, try it, this is the new way to eat that kid invented. It is said that the third young master will eat five in one meal."
"It's strange, why are the vegetables still raw?" Ying Lian held the local hamburger with both hands and frowned slightly.
"Your Majesty doesn't know. According to the boy Bai Dong, this thing is called 'eating', which means using lettuce leaves. Now this way of eating is extremely popular in the camp, and many generals praise it."
"It's appropriate to eat it. This kid has a lot of strange ideas. I really wonder who his teacher is, and he can teach such a student? By the way, the woman who called bitter wine is really resurrected from the dead? Is this kid really good at the means of life and death, and is he as good as that Qin Yue?"
He held it and took a bite, Ying Lian nodded. The taste was really good, and it was so delicious.
"I have carefully investigated it. I committed suicide by jumping into the river with bitter wine. Li Di came ashore. Li Di had seen countless lives and deaths, and even he judged that the woman had died. There were dozens of veterans to prove it, so I would definitely not be wrong. That kid was really a skillful way and saved a dead man!"
"I heard that Qin Yue people had this ability and had saved the dead Prince of Guo. Unfortunately, I sent people to investigate several times, but I never found this miracle doctor. Could it be that this kid had such a way?" Ying Lian's eyes lit up, and he ate all the vegetables, meat and steamed buns in his hand in a few bites, and turned his head to look at Fan Qiang. Since ancient times, the higher his power position, the more afraid of death, there is no one who does not desire a miracle doctor, and of course he is no exception.
"Bai Dong is too mysterious. Maybe the emperor should observe more." Fan Qiang smiled and said, "It's just that he made the emperor's appetite so much that his subordinates still like this kid."
"It's not only necessary to observe, but also to get close to this kid."
Ying Lian was eating smoothly, pointed to the steamed buns in the cage, signaling Fan Qiang to make another 'eat' for him', and smiled and said, "I heard that you came forward to solve the problem of bitter wine. Is that boy still satisfied?"
"It was the trouble caused by the Sishu Camp. Because the war was getting tighter and the Sishu Camp was insufficient, so she had to use some non-military who had a clear foundation, carefully wine, had a good voice, and sang the Book of Songs well. So she was recruited by the Sishu Camp to help take care of the wounded soldiers, do some washing things, and sometimes she would also help boil some medicines. She was originally doing very well, and she had free meals provided by the Sishu Camp and earned two cents a day. She didn't want to take care of the Century of the Lightning Camp, but something went wrong..."
"You must be sharp? Is it the warrior who once broke into the Wei army's formation and almost killed the generals and seized the flag?"
Ying Lian was slightly stunned. He had an impression of this person. He was a famous warrior in the Qingrui Camp and a favorite of his second son Ying Quliang.
"I had a sharp drink of the medicine decocted with bitter wine, but in just two or three hours, the wound suddenly burst and died."
"Si Shuaiying knew that he was a wise person, and they could not afford the consequences, so they pushed him to Bijiu?" Ying Lian sneered. He was plotted against him in the first half of his life, and in the second half of his life, it would be strange if Si Shuaiying's thoughts could be hidden from him.
"Your Majesty guessed correctly. Sishangying had to drink bitterly and willingly take the blame, and gave her a day to say goodbye to her father. It is also considered that this woman is lucky. She actually met Bai Dong..."
Fan Qiang suddenly laughed and said, "We have to thank Bitter Wine. If it weren't for her, it would be impossible to tell that the boy had the means of "living dead". Although we didn't invite Qin Yue people, we had a Bai Bian Que."
"Bah, that boy hides his head and tail, and he still refuses to tell me who his master is, and he deserves to be called Bian Que?" Ying Lian complained, but his eyes were full of smiles: "Did that boy agree?"
"I know that I want to die, but I don't blame the doctor. It's no wonder that the doctor will die. It's a common thing to destroy people. But if I have to investigate carefully, the bitter wine is not related to the medical officer. That boy seems to be very good at bitter wine. I don't know if he likes her. With this ties, he won't be able to do it."
Fan Qiang laughed and said, "Now I'll wait for the lord to order him to be the new medical officer of the Injury Camp. He is a smart man and has agreed to his subordinates, just put forward a condition..."
"Okay, I'm not afraid of him giving him a condition, I'm afraid of having no desires and no demands. Let me guess whether I want a title or an official?" Ying Lian laughed and said, "I only sealed him with a hairpin last time, and I knew this kid was not satisfied."
"The Lord is a great calculating. In fact, the ministers have never understood that the boy's method of giving 'strong noodles' is equivalent to giving countless food to Qin. Such great achievements are not an exaggeration to be a five-doctor. However, the Lord has only sealed a hairpin, so why are he not afraid of his heart being cold?"
During the Warring States Period, it was true that only talent was promoted, and promotion was all about jumping. Later generations had a man named Zhang Yi who ran to King Huiwen of Qin and talked. The King of Qin just listened to the point of making sense and asked him to be the prime minister. In this environment, Fan Qiang really couldn't understand Ying Lian's "stinginess".
"Haha, Fan Qiang, you don't know what's going on... When the king and his ministers cheered for the magical skill of "Strong Face", the boy looked calm. It can be seen that he still has more secrets. The mere methods of strengthening face are not in his eyes. If I had appointed him as the five doctors for the first time, what can I do to deal with him in the future? Daliangcai or Daguanzheng?"
Ying Lian laughed: "Well, the war is about to begin, and there is a miracle doctor who can be the "living dead" in charge of the prison camp, which will boost the morale of our army. Isn't he going to be an official title? This time he was named a doctor. Although he was only one level higher than Zanniao, he was truly exempted from service and entered the aristocratic class. Although the scholars were originally nobles, it was just his claim to him. He had no proof of his family's origin and refused to say his master's degree. I will just be satisfied with that kid, right?"
"Your Majesty, this kid does have unpredictable methods. Is it a little smaller to have such a talent only as one doctor?"
"It's not small anymore."
Ying Lian glanced at Fan Qiang: "Didn't you accept him as your godson? Why do you always help him find an official position? Don't think about it for me. If I give my kindness too much, how can my son meet him in the future? At the age of 60, I am already a sixty-year-old..."
"Your Majesty!" Fan Qiang knelt down with tears in his eyes: "Your Majesty is in full swing in the spring and autumn, how can you say such words? Let the old ministers, old ministers..."
Ying Lian sighed, and was about to help the loyal eunuch up, but suddenly someone outside the tent shouted: "Ying Quliang asks to see his father-in-law!"
