Hand over the jade seal first [Infrastructure]

Chapter 307

When the news came, Xiao Zirong was relieved. No matter what, it was good that he was still alive, but a serious injury was equivalent to two people stepping into the gate of hell with half a foot.

After inquiring, Xiao Zirong learned that the two of them were unable to move for the time being, so he immediately decided to take them directly to Shuzhong.

Xiao Yan and Chai He were the first to jump out to object: "Your Highness, the court still relies on His Highness to preside over the overall situation."

What the two of them didn't say was that even if Xiao Zirong went, what's the use?It's a chaotic time over there now, so it's no problem to have Xiao Xuexing over there.

Of course they were also worried about the injury of the emperor and the prince, but it was useless if the king of Jinling went.

In particular, Xiao Yan and Chai He were more mature and prudent. As early as when they got the news of the earthquake, they thought of several plans immediately after being frightened.

Without exception, these plans must protect King Jinling, which is their only hope.

So no matter what, they have to persuade King Jinling.

However, if Xiao Zirong could really be persuaded, he wouldn’t be here today. He is best at running away, so he finished all the things at hand, and then made a calculation. There should be no big things in the court recently, and he left some precautions. After setting up the plan, he slipped away with someone.

Xiao Yan, Chai He: ...

They finally felt the feelings of the regent and the emperor. Is the King of Jinling a fish?

They had clearly guessed that the King of Jinling might secretly leave Beijing for Shuzhong, so they had taken strict precautions.

The city gate definitely didn't dare to stop Xiao Zirong, Xiao Yan and Chai He didn't make it difficult for the people below, but they just told them to hold back the King of Jinling once they found out, and wait for the two of them to arrive before talking about other things.

It's hard for these two old ministers to tremble with fear despite their age.

In the end, I didn't expect that they didn't keep each other. Chai He and Xiao Yan were extremely upset. Fortunately, Xiao Zirong handled things similarly. The two of them have been prime ministers and ministers for many years, which is not unreasonable. Just a little worried, he quickly sent a letter to the regent, asking him to bring back King Jinling.

To be honest, if this matter was pushed back five years, Xiao Yan might still be active and want to compete for power, maybe he would ascend to the throne with a single effort.

His surname is also Xiao, at least he won't encounter resistance from the Xiao family when he becomes emperor.

But now...forget it.

His old arms and legs couldn't move anymore, not to mention that even if he could move, the Jinling Guard wasn't just a display.

These years, every first day of October, Xiao Xuan would take people to the Jinling military parade. From the beginning, it was just the changes in the mental outlook of the soldiers to the changes in the weapons and armor. He noticed it all.

If it's just these things, maybe it's nothing, but the King of Jinling really has a hand. When he asked the soldiers to read and practice calligraphy, everyone thought that he had money and no place to spend it, and he was full.

However, over the years, those soldiers were very successful in being educated by the textbooks written by the King of Jinling himself, and none of them were loyal to the King of Jinling.

Some people used to covet the generals under the King of Jinling before, and wanted to hook them into their own hands, but no matter what benefits they promised, they didn't succeed.

After that, Xiao Yan stopped thinking.

If your boss is smarter than you, has better weapons than you, and his subordinates are much more loyal than yours, and he hasn't tried to mess with you yet, all fools know what to do.

Xiao Yan and Chai He worked hard like two old oxen.

Xiao Zirong hurried all the way to Shuzhong.

The road to Shu is not a joke, not to mention cars, even horse-drawn carriages don't have many places to go. After entering Shu, Xiao Zirong directly abandoned the car and replaced it with a horse, and rushed all the way to the temporary resettlement site.

When he was running halfway, he was stopped, and the person who stopped him was Xiao Xuexing.

Seeing Xiao Xuexing, Xiao Zirong felt guilty: "Why are you here?"

Xiao Xuexing sighed helplessly: "I knew you couldn't sit still, so come with me."

Xiao Zirong secretly looked at his face, and found that in just a few days, Xiao Xuexing had lost a lot of weight, and his whole body seemed to reveal a sense of fatigue.

He held Xiao Xuexing's hand sadly and said, "You should have a good rest for a few days when I come."

Now he is glad that he ran over impulsively, although Xiao Xuexing's body looks like a normal person, but he can't forget how weak Xiao Xuexing was back then, what if there is a relapse?

Xiao Xuexing held Xiao Zirong's hand tightly and said: "Don't worry too much, they are all fine now, the medicine you sent saved them in time, if there is no sulfonamide, it would be unimaginable."

Xiao Zirong breathed a sigh of relief, and asked softly, "Where are they all injured?"

Although everyone felt that King Jinling would not be able to help when he came here, what he should do most when the regent is here is to sit in Jiankang.

However, Xiao Zirong is very clear that he is only useful here. The current medical methods are not so advanced, and many diseases have not been studied and understood. He can at least search for answers in the library through some signs, even Less than a definitive answer would at least narrow it down a bit.

After hearing this, Xiao Xuexing was silent for a moment before he said: "Your Majesty broke two ribs and slightly injured the inner palace, but it was not fatal. There were other wounds that were being treated, but some of the medicines used may not be very good for the body. .”

When Xiao Zirong heard that the rib was broken, he was startled. If he was unlucky, it would be easy to puncture the internal organs after the rib was broken.

However, Xiao Xuan was obviously lucky, the injury was not serious, but he is old, such a serious injury is easy to cause problems.

Xiao Zirong looked at Xiao Xuexing suspiciously: "If it's not serious, why do you need to take heavy medicine?"

Xiao Xuexing knew that he couldn't be fooled, so he could only say: "It's not serious if it's not fatal."

It was only then that Xiao Zirong understood his logic, an injury that would not have killed him at that time was naturally not considered a serious injury.

He was also a little convinced, so he had to ask a few more questions.

Only then did Xiao Xuexing tell him the truth, the truth is that Xiao Xuan was seriously injured at the time, even if there were loyal eunuchs protecting him, the rescue efficiency is not very good these days.

By the time someone finds it, there will be only one breath left.

At this time, there are two choices. The first is to use ordinary medicine, but whether it can be saved depends on God's will, and it can even be said that the possibility of saving life is very low.

The second is to use strong medicine to hang the life first, and then treat it a little bit.

Xiao Xuexing decided to use the second method at that time.

In fact, it was Xiao Xuan. If an ordinary person of his age came here, the second type would be impossible to use.

If the medicine is strong, the patient's body needs to be able to bear it, otherwise the person will be killed by the medicine before being rescued.

Xiao Xuan has been recuperating well these years. Xiao Zirong will send any good things to him. He even made healthy recipes with balanced nutrition for his relatives, and the details are divided into seasons.

Even if Xiao Xuan's physical condition was not very good at first, it has improved a little over the years.

Otherwise, he might not even be able to survive being dug out.

It's just that he is old after all, and he can bear the strong medicine, but it will leave some sequelae after all, and it's hard to say whether he can be cured.

Xiao Zirong was silent for a while after hearing this.

He thought of the epidemics in later generations. Every time there is an epidemic that has never been seen before, it needs to be treated in the groping Chinese medicine. Many patients were cured at that time, but they left very serious sequelae, resulting in a severe decline in the quality of life.

But no matter who puts it in the situation at that time, the first choice may be to save people.

Xiao Zirong knew that Xiao Xuexing's choice was right. The other party's thinness in just a few days may not be due to the many affairs after the earthquake, but more because of worry and entanglement with Xiao Xuan.

So he pretended to be relaxed and said: "As long as people are alive, if I can research sulfa, I can research other things. Maybe I can find other medicines to treat him. Don't worry too much."

This is the only comfort Xiao Xuexing has heard these days.

All his subordinates were counting on him, and everyone felt that he was invincible, so no one cared whether he would not be able to bear it. Only Xiao Zirong, even though he had no idea in his heart, still comforted him.

Xiao Xuexing turned his head to look at Xiao Zirong, and on the spur of the moment, he reached out to wrap his arms around the man's waist and hugged him onto his horse.

Xiao Zirong was taken aback and said quickly, "What are you doing? The road is not easy, can this horse hold it? Let me go back quickly."

Xiao Xuexing hugged him, buried his face in his neck and said sullenly, "Just for a while."

After hearing this, Xiao Zirong quietly let him hug him. He didn't know what kind of mental torture Xiao Xuexing had endured recently, but at this moment he was willing to be the support of this man who had always seemed extremely powerful.

Xiao Xuan is still relatively well at the moment, but he has let go of a big stone that weighed on his heart, and the whole person is much more relaxed.

After a while, he asked, "You only mentioned uncle, what about elder brother? How is elder brother doing now?"

Xiao Xuexing sat up straight and hesitated for a while and said: "During the earthquake, the prince was outside to enjoy the cool air. The injury looked serious, but it is easy to treat, but..."

Xiao Zirong patted his hand anxiously: "When did you become hesitant to speak? Say it quickly."

Xiao Xuexing sighed: "It's just that his eyes can't see."

After hearing this, Xiao Zirong felt cold: "What? I can't see my eyes? His eyes are injured? Is it the eyeball?"

His first reaction when he heard this sentence was that Xiao Ji's glasses were broken and hurt his eyeballs. You must know that even if Xiao Ji's glasses are now made of tempered glass, it does not mean that they are 100% safe. It is always an extremely fragile part.

If it is an eyeball injury, it will not be easy to heal even in future generations, let alone the present.

Xiao Xuexing frowned: "No, his head was not injured, but his leg was smashed, but it was not serious, but he couldn't see anything, and the doctor couldn't see why."
