Chapter 222: Arrival at the Military Camp
How dare they let the prince lead a rebellion?
Ye Lingche did not agree immediately. If he agreed too quickly, the people behind him would be suspicious and might even suspect that he had gotten involved.
So Ye Lingche said to the messenger, "Why would I attack my father? If my brother were still alive, he would definitely not want me to help others harm my father."
The messenger was masked, and one could only tell by his voice that he was a man. "The Emperor doesn't care about you two brothers, so why are you so loyal to him? You've been away for so many years, don't you know that the Emperor has never sent anyone to search for the Crown Prince's whereabouts?"
"So what?" Ye Lingche looked unmoved.
The man then said, "What if I tell you that the prince's murder was your majesty's idea?"
A very novel statement.
A hint of doubt appeared on Ye Lingche's face: "How could it be?"
"Why else wouldn't he care about the whereabouts of the Crown Prince and his family? Changing the Crown Prince would arouse suspicion. Doesn't his inaction now perfectly demonstrate his intentions? All he needs is a decree of succession to hand the throne to whoever he wants."
The man's voice was slightly tempting, "If you lead your men into the imperial city, the throne will be in your hands."
Ye Lingche is not stupid. That person clearly wants him to be a favor to others.
The person they wanted to put on the throne was not him.
"Let me be frank. I don't want the throne. I've been dealing with you for so long just to find out the whereabouts of my brother."
It’s not like Ye Lingche is too easily fooled.
The man said calmly, "Then raise an army. Your Majesty was the one who planned all that happened back then. He must know whether the Crown Prince is dead or alive, and where he is."
Ye Lingche thought for a long time before reluctantly agreeing. He then roughly surveyed their military strength and secretly thought about how to pass the message on.
Looking at the Qianheng military camp, the spies relayed information that the barbarian army was indeed planning to attack.
But it was Gong Chang who asked Huertu to wait a little longer. Now Gong Chang is nowhere to be seen, and the people sent to look for him have not returned either.
Huertu was very afraid that this was a conspiracy and the tragic situation in the opposite military camp was all fake.
The people of Qianheng are well-versed in military tactics and are full of tricks. The Barbarian Kingdom has suffered many losses in wars over the years, and now they have no choice but to send another small team to chase in the direction Gongchang left.
His action also bought Bai Sui'an time to travel.
Chang An ran all the way with the three children, and Bai Suian traveled safely on foot, but the long journey was really unbearable.
He was also lucky enough to meet a caravan from Gongchang that was delivering food to the barbarian army. He happened to rob the food and steal the horses. With one more horse, Bai Sui'an's journey became more convenient.
I was afraid of meeting people if I took the main road, so I had to take the small road as a detour.
During this time, several children felt dizzy from riding on the tiger's back, and we had to stop every now and then to let them rest and eat something.
Once they leave the barbarian territory, they no longer have to hide.
When they arrived at the military camp, Ye Lingchi personally led the troops on patrol. He looked energetic at the front, but the people following him still walked with heavy steps even though they tried their best to straighten their backs.
This place is already filled with disease.
As the sound of horse hooves approached, those drowsy people immediately perked up, gripping their spears tightly and ready to fight at any time.
The people who came were a woman riding a horse and three children riding white tigers.
Without reporting, Ye Lingchi could see who was coming, and he told his men to let down their guard and take a rest.
I went to meet him myself.
He knew very well that Bai Sui'an's arrival meant that the situation in the military camp would improve.
But I didn't expect Bai Sui'an to bring the child here.
"I received the news from you before, and I thought you would leave the child there and have Baili bring him back after everything is settled."
Bai Sui'an dismounted and handed the reins to Ye Lingchi: "It's safer with me, and Ah Mo has taken medicine now, so he can't fight for the next few days. If something happens, he won't be able to protect the children."
"Let all the military doctors in the camp gather together first. I will treat them first and then separate them to treat the others."
Ye Lingchi nodded: "What about the children?"
Lin Rongle said: "We ride Chang'an to help patrol."
He had seen that the patrolling soldiers had also been infected to some extent, but their condition was not serious.
It would be best if everyone could have some time to rest.
Since he was here and could help, Ye Lingchi let Lin Rongle do the work.
They can patrol during the day, but soldiers still need to take turns on guard at night.
The soldiers had no idea where this woman and child came from, but seeing that the general trusted them so much, they all followed his instructions.
But some people are worried: "What if the girl and the child also get infected?"
This disease is really strange. Ye Lingchi did not get sick. They thought it was because the general was strong, but how strong could women and children be?
Ye Lingchi just reassured everyone: "They will definitely be able to save everyone."
Just like how Bai Sui'an restored his eyesight, this time she has rushed over and will definitely be able to save the people in the military camp.
Ye Lingchi set aside a tent for Bai Sui'an and the children. Bai Sui'an and the children did not go over to see the place, but started to help as soon as they arrived.
Seeing a few children holding sticks and imitating the soldiers' patrolling on foot, the soldiers around them felt sad and funny.
The big white tiger also walked around and smelled, as if it was getting familiar with the smell of the people in the camp.
Two military doctors were already sick and unconscious, and Bai Sui'an injected them with special medicine one by one.
The conscious military doctor was curious about her treatment method, but Bai Sui'an didn't have time to chat, as she still had to distribute medicine.
There are so many people in the military camp, and it would take too much time to give them special medicine one by one.
So she wanted to give everyone some oral liquid to relieve their symptoms first.
"Gentlemen, if you have recovered, please come to me. I will teach you the treatment method I just used. I also need your help in treating everyone."
Bai Sui'an's words made the military doctors swallow their words.
An older military doctor gave Ye Lingchi a look with a hint of worry, but Ye Lingchi smiled and nodded, reassuring him.
"Brother, please help me gather everyone who can move. I need someone to help me distribute the medicine."
Bai Sui'an said a word and Ye Lingchi happily went to do it.
It can be said that he has complete trust in Bai Sui'an.
Ye Lingchi went out to call for help, and a group of military doctors just stared blankly at Bai Suian as he took out row after row of thumb-sized black bottles from the medicine box.
I don’t know how the medicine box can hold so many medicine bottles, it seems like there are endless supplies.
Ye Lingchi asked people to line up outside, and Bai Sui'an also went out with the medicine bottle.
Without asking how many people there were, she let those people drink one bottle themselves, and then gave one bottle to everyone else. After they were done, they asked her for more.
There are so many people in the military camp, and there are less than a hundred people whose symptoms are mild enough to still move around freely. Some people are seriously ill but still force themselves to come out to help.
Seeing that they had strong willpower, Bai Sui'an picked out a few and let them get the injection first.
After the injection, they can no longer do strenuous exercise, so those people can behave themselves for a few days.
