318. The Emperor(1/2)

In early spring, the grassland emits tender green sprouts.

Feng Changqing and Tang Jin rode on horseback on a green plain, followed by the cavalry.

They have been traveling day and night, for nearly half a month, and now they are almost at the camp of Huben Camp.

After Tang Jinming's accurate distance to the horse, he slowed down the entire team.

He looked at Feng Changqing, who was slightly chaotic with his hair hanging down, "Are you tired?"

When marching and fighting, all you need is speed. You will be fast and go all day and night. To be honest, Feng Changqing is so tired. Tang Jin also asked her many times. Every time, Feng Changqing smiled and said she was not tired, because with Tang Jin, she felt at ease. What kind of fatigue can be considered as fatigue?

"It's okay, I'm in good health. What's the tiring of this length?" Feng Changqing said with a smile, glanced at the cavalry behind him, and said, "It's true that this heavily armored cavalry, as I thought, was as tired after rushing down for days, but he didn't show any fatigue."

Tang Jin smiled, "That's natural. Each of these five thousand cavalry is equipped with two service soldiers, two BMWs that travel thousands of miles a day. The cavalry itself is carefully selected. After strict training, it is normal to have such an effect."

"Yeah." Feng Changqing nodded, "We suddenly slowed down, not to let everyone rest." We have been working day and night, and now we have arrived at our destination, so there is no reason to suddenly slow down and rest.

"You know again." Tang Jin smiled, but didn't say much.

Feng Changqing didn't ask much. She knew that Tang Jin was waiting for the sent-out to reply to the news. Last night, she saw Tang Jin sending someone out.

Feng Changqing didn't say much immediately, and slowly kicked Zhuifeng's belly with his legs and marched side by side with Tang Jin.

After walking for a while, Tang Jin raised his hand and ordered: "Camp!"

Feng Changqing's eyebrows moved and said nothing.

After helping to build the tent, Feng Changqing went to meet Tang Jin, "Why do you want to camp here? This is a plain. Camping in such an endless place is really a taboo for military strategists."

"I know."

"Do you know you still do this?" Feng Changqing raised his eyebrows, "What do you want to do? Don't keep it a secret, tell me."

Tang Jin smiled, "I don't climb the wall, and I don't seek death. What's the hurry to do?"

"I'm afraid you're too arrogant and have problems." Feng Changqing glared at him, "I heard that Xiao Yunlai is a general who is always victorious and is definitely not easy to deal with. We naturally have to be careful. You are so generous and exposing yourself, it's really..." Feng Changqing was suddenly stunned and looked at Tang Jin, "Did you mean it?"

Tang Jin's smile deepened and he pinched her cheek, "Do you remember? When we left, Bai Jinnian told him to take it alive, which means that he would minimize the damage to the point of taking Xiao Yun. However, we were carrying heavy armored cavalry. Once we took action, countless casualties would be uncontrollable, so we had to think of some other solutions..."

"You're right." Feng Changqing kept nodding, but the wrinkles between his eyebrows did not loosen. "However, Xiao Yunlai was brave and good at fighting, and the team of Xiao family troops led by his subordinates was even more difficult to deal with. The combat power of the Hu Ben Army was insufficient. If we didn't use cavalry, it would be difficult to get him."

Bai Jinnian didn't give them much time, and most of this time was spent on the road. She must fight quickly. She claimed that she knew some marching and war, but she was helpless in the face of this situation.

Tang Jin said: "There are always solutions. OK, you will definitely be very tired when you rush on the road. Go and take a shower and rest."

"..." Feng Changqing was speechless for a moment and wanted to ask, but seeing that Tang Jin was obviously unwilling to say more, he had to sigh, "Okay."

When he returned to the tent, Peng Tianzhao had already ordered someone to carry the hot water.

Feng Changqing was rushing along the way every day and night, and his whole body was sore, so he soaked himself in hot water. While soaking, he fell asleep unconsciously.

After the march for a long time, she was very alert. While she was half asleep and half awake, she noticed that someone had entered her tent, but she did not get up.

She was very familiar with the slightness of the footsteps and the rhythm of the breathing. At this time, only Tang Jin would enter her tent.

She closed her eyes halfway and sank herself into the water, "You're done."

The sound came through the swaying mist, very lazy.

Tang Jin nodded, pulled the thin blanket, and took Feng Changqing out of the bathtub and wrapped it up, "Why did you fall asleep when you wash?"

Feng Changqing still closed her eyes and leaned against his chest, "I wasn't that tired at first, but I was tired after soaking."

Tang Jin smiled, put her back on the simple bed, pulled a blanket to cover her, grabbed the dry cloth, and wiped her hair.

Feng Changqing fell asleep directly after his head was stained with a pillow.

I don’t know how long I slept, but Tang Jin’s voice called softly in his ear, “A Qing, get up.”

Feng Changqing opened her eyes and saw that it was still dark outside. She sat up and looked at Tang Jin, "Are there any arrangements?"

"Yes." Tang Jin was already dressed neatly, with azure blue narrow-sleeved deep-fitting clothes, dark leather soft armor, and a short sword on his wide waist. Feng Changqing's clothes were ready to be placed on the small table at the head of the bed.

It was a normal set of plain clothes, with flowers and colorful butterflies embroidered with broken branches on the hem.

Feng Changqing took a look, "This is—"

Tang Jin said: "It's useful, put it on."

Feng Changqing was silent, reached out and raised her hand, and said while putting on her clothes: "Why didn't you say it yesterday? When is the time now?"

"It's still early, so I can catch up." Tang Jin packed himself up. Feng Changqing had put on his middle clothes. He lifted up the chain mail and tied it up for Feng Changqing, and then handed her the outer shirt. "You are sober. If you tell you, you are afraid you won't be able to sleep all night, so you won't tell you. Last night, Han Ye specially asked Han Ye to put something in your bath soup to soothe your shin and make you sleep well."

Feng Changqing felt warm and quickly put on her coat under her hands and had to wear armor.

Tang Jin said, "What kind of armor do you wear with this outfit? Let's go."

"..." Feng Changqing was speechless, not knowing what he was selling in the gourd, but seeing that he was calm and steady, he must have been confident, so he didn't ask much. The shoes he prepared for her were also plain embroidered shoes. When she wore them, she took a look at them, and there were some characteristics of stitching.

After dressing up, he left the tent. Feng Changqing discovered that Tang Jin did not take anyone, but rode a horse with her, Zhuifeng and walked out.

Tang Jin smiled and said, "Take you to relax."

"..." Feng Changqing was speechless for another moment before laughing: "You are so heartless. I just said yesterday that time is limited, but today I have to relax."

Tang Jin smiled and said nothing.

Feng Changqing thought, probably this trip was not as simple as relaxing. Her outfit seemed to be specially prepared.

Unexpectedly, the more they walked towards Pingguan City the more they walked.

She couldn't help but ask: "Pingguan City is where Xiao Yun came from. Are we going like this?"

Tang Jin smiled, "Otherwise."

Feng Changqing frowned, and she was increasingly confused about what Tang Jin sold in the gourd. She looked at Tang Jin, "What are you selling?"

"You will know when you enter the city."

Feng Changqing had no choice but to suppress his curiosity.

When the two walked ten miles outside the city, the sky was white and the sun was about to rise.

Tang Jin got off the horse and held the reins in his hand.

Feng Changqing wanted to ask, but didn't say anything, thinking that she must have done this reason.

While walking, Tang Jinze told her some things about Xiao Yun coming to Pingguan City. After listening for a while, when he was about to arrive at the gate of Pingguan City, Feng Changqing finally realized that Tang Jin wanted to do something.

She said in surprise: "I'm not a doctor, are you sure you really want to do this?"

"What else?" Tang Jin raised his eyebrows, "Xiao Yunlai's wife was postpartum disordered and weak. There were not many doctors in Pingguan City. As long as we can improve his wife's health, we can stay in Pingguan City and find out the news around him."

"But I'm not a doctor!" Feng Changqing emphasized, "I don't know how to treat it, and I can't even pretend like it."

Tang Jin smiled, "I understand, I just can't cure a few diseases, I'm still good at pretending."

"..." Feng Changqing was silent for a while, "But your outfit is really not like a doctor, but like a swordsman who travels around the world." And her outfit is even more inappropriate, neither a man nor a fool. How could this outfit be trusted?

Tang Jin laughed, "Have you ever heard that there is a medical emperor named Feng Yuhai on the grassland outside the border?"

Feng Changqing paused, "I haven't heard of this." She has been to some places, Annan, Hailing, Xiangxi, and Bingzhou, but she has never been to the grassland.

Tang Jin explained patiently, "The Medical Emperor is said to be the prince of a grassland tribe. Because the tribe was destroyed, he began to wander. Feng Yuhai had unparalleled medical skills, and the kind-hearted person was given the title of Medical Emperor by the people of the grassland tribe... He was a young man of 27 or 28 years old, and he had become a famous teacher and dressed up by the Jianghu people."

Feng Changqing suddenly realized, "It turns out that you were prepared to pretend to be the Medical Emperor's wind to control the sea, but...what about me? I am not so coincidental that there is a woman who is with me, right?"

"It really is." Tang Jin narrowed his eyes and looked at her with a smile. "There is a beauty who is inseparable from the side of the Medical Emperor. It is said that the female slave of a tribe saved by the Medical Emperor by chance. This female slave is infatuated with the Medical Emperor. Although the Medical Emperor is unmoved, she always has to follow and take care of the Medical Emperor."

Feng Changqing's eyebrows condensed into a hemp rope, "Tell me quickly, what should I do to be like?"

"What do you think?" Tang Jin smiled a little maliciously, "What should you be like if you are infatuated? What do you want to do, do you understand?"

Feng Changqing rolled his eyes secretly, really trying to kick Tang Jin, but he was tolerant.

Tang Jin added, "Also, that female slave cannot speak because she has been persecuted before."

Feng Changqing said with a bad tone: "Remember."

Who can't act?

She rode on the horse and thought so.

It was much easier to enter Pingguan City than she thought.

As soon as he entered, Tang Jin found a place to eat. He was about to help Feng Changqing get off the horse when he saw Feng Changqing jumping down skillfully and gave him a look.

Feng Changqing was speechless for a moment, restrained his movements, and waited for Tang Jin to come, pulled and helped her, hugged her off the horse, and then called the stall owner to order mutton noodles.

Feng Changqing lowered his head halfway and said in a very small, inaudible voice: "Didn't it mean that the Medical Emperor is not interested in that female slave? Since he is not interested, he still hugs others like this!"

Tang Jin pretended to drink tea and replied indifferently: "Feng Yuhai is a gentle person. He is gentle to both men, women, young and old. Okay, be good, be good, don't talk."

Feng Changqing glared at him secretly. If it weren't for the overall situation, he wouldn't really want to act in this scene at all.

There were few customers in the morning, and the stall owner was quicker. He quickly brought the mutton noodles and sent two plates of pickled radish.

Feng Changqing went to bed early last night and was hungry now. She took the chopsticks and slowly ate the rice.

The noodle piece was well made and it tasted a bit delicious. While she was eating, she observed the situation in Pingguan City without any trace.

Although it was during the war, the people here didn't seem so worried and afraid. They all believed that Xiao Yunlai could defend the frontier and prevent the people from being poisoned by the war.

After dinner, Tang Jin paid the money and walked in front of him with his horse, while Feng Changqing followed him, staggering half a distance from his body, which was very conscious of a "female slave".
