Chapter 176 Her Token
"What deal?"
Li Yujiao said: "Why don't you announce to the public that you invited me back to treat your Xiling Princess!"
Gu Yansheng asked in surprise: "Princess? How do you know that our princess is ill?"
Li Yujiao saw it in the original book.
The original book did not describe much about the Xiling Kingdom. It only mentioned that the Princess of Xiling had a headache and died in the winter of that year. It was because of the death of the princess that the Emperor of Xiling lost interest in state affairs. Song Haoyang took advantage of the opportunity and went to Black Bear Village to recruit Jing Qishan and others to fight, and thus took back Huatai.
But a lot of people died in that battle, almost all the people in Black Bear Village died. If Jing Qishan was not a bad person in the early stage, he should have turned evil after that battle.
Li Yujiao said: "Didn't your Xiling Emperor once summon doctors from all over the world? If they can cure the princess's illness, then they can meet the three conditions of the doctor? I am also a doctor, so I naturally know!"
Gu Yansheng thought about it and felt that Li Yujiao's suggestion was indeed the most reasonable one, and it also gave him a way out.
Otherwise, once the war breaks out, it is hard to imagine how many people will die in these two countries!
Gu Yansheng said: "Please follow me back to Xiling Palace immediately!"
Li Yujiao said: "I can go back with General Gu, but General Gu better not take the opportunity to gather troops. If you want to gather troops, the end will be miserable, because you have no chance of winning, you can't beat Jing Qishan!"
Gu Yansheng paused.
He did have a momentary thought: to gather troops while returning to the palace. He didn't believe that even the whole country's strength could not defeat Jing Qishan.
But Li Yujiao's words made him feel a little ashamed.
Li Yujiao said: "If you agree with my plan, I can write a letter to Jing Qishan and ask him not to attack the city for the time being."
At this point, this is the only way. Gu Yansheng said, "Then I'll have to trouble Madam Jing."
……
Li Yu'e had been guarding outside the tent.
Seeing Gu Yansheng bringing Li Yujiao out, she immediately went up to him and said, "General Gu, you must kill Li Yujiao immediately. She is full of tricks and will definitely try every means to persuade you to let her go. Once you really let her go, she will definitely hurt you badly later. Really, I am an example."
Gu Yansheng now dislikes Li Yu'e very much.
Although Li Yu'e proposed a plan and successfully abducted Li Yujiao, he underestimated Jing Qishan. He thought that Jing Qishan would obediently hand over the city, but who could have imagined that he would take the entire southwest and let Xiling be buried with him!
Crazy, all crazy!
He actually believed what Li Yu'e said.
"General Gu, you must kill Li Yujiao now, otherwise you will regret it later." Li Yu'e said again.
"Are you teaching me how to do things?" Gu Yansheng asked.
"I...but I did offer a plan. Now you have the leverage, right?"
Gu Yansheng ignored her and asked a few guards around to keep a close eye on Li Yu'e. He also sent someone to take Li Yujiao's token to Jing Qishan.
Then Gu Yansheng and Li Yujiao rode back to the Xiling Palace at full speed.
……
Jing Qishan had already assembled his soldiers, and the army was rushing towards Xiling in a black mass.
At this time, another messenger sent by Gu Yansheng arrived.
Because he heard that the previous envoy was killed, this envoy knelt down as soon as he arrived: "General Jing, please don't be impulsive. Our General Gu just asked your wife to treat our princess. There is no other intention. When the princess is better, then the lady can come back."
Jing Qishan didn't listen to his words: "Are you inviting me? Are you kidnapping me? And you threatened me to give up a city just now, and now you are talking about curing my illness. What are you trying to do?"
The messenger said tremblingly: "It was all a misunderstanding before. Now it is really a cure. Here is your lady's letter and token. Please check it, General Jing!"
Jing Qishan asked someone to pick him up.
When the item was delivered to him, it was indeed Li Yujiao's handwriting, with missing limbs.
After such a long time, her brush calligraphy has not improved at all and she can't even write a complete character.
The token of love was a jade hairpin he gave her in the capital. She always wore it and said it was light and simple.
That's what she said in her letter: Tell him not to send troops for the time being, she's going to Xiling to treat the princess, and if she can't be cured, then she'll have to be sacrificed because this isn't the best time to fight.
Jing Qishan stared at the messenger: "How do I know if you forced my wife to write this letter?"
The messenger said nervously, "It's really not true. Even your wife volunteered to go for treatment. She said she didn't want to be a beauty who brings disaster."
Jing Qishan looked towards the direction of Xiling in the distance with a deep gaze.
That’s right, given Li Yujiao’s personality, this is exactly what she thought!
Although she was a woman, she was able to understand the situation clearly. She was not afraid of death. The only thing she feared was that the people in the two cities would be displaced again, become homeless, or even live in danger.
Otherwise, why would she spend so much effort to divide the land among them, lead them to farm the land, and go up the mountain to dig herbs?
Wouldn't it be good for her to just be a leisurely lady at home, with everything provided for her?
Jing Qishan looked at the messenger and said, "Go back and tell him: send my wife back unharmed within half a month, otherwise, I have a hundred ways to destroy Xiling!"
The messenger was very excited that he was not killed, so he hurried back to report.
……
Li Yujiao and Gu Yansheng traveled by water for more than two days and finally arrived at the Xiling Palace.
Gu Yansheng went in to report, and when he heard that he had brought back a doctor, someone from the palace came out and took them in.
Li Yujiao did not go to the Daqi Palace, but went to the Xiling Palace first.
The style of the Xiling Palace is similar to that of a Thai palace, with many spire-like roofs. As the weather here is not cold, the palace maids are dressed quite coolly. The arms of one of the palace maids who brought them into the palace were still exposed.
The palace is decorated with a lot of gauze and there are many guards. Snakes are their mascots and there are many snake-shaped sculptures in the palace.
When she arrived at the main hall, Li Yujiao met the Emperor of Xiling, who was in his forties, very fat, with a very protruding belly, wearing many jades, gold and silver on his body, and a bright yellow hat on his head.
"Can you cure diseases?" This was the first sentence Emperor Xiling asked when he saw Li Yujiao.
Li Yujiao bowed to Emperor Xiling according to the etiquette of Daqi: "It can cure some difficult and complicated diseases."
"But my princess has been bedridden for a long time. She has been treated by famous doctors all over the world but still can't be cured. How can you, a young woman, do this?"
Li Yujiao asked, "Can you let me see the princess first? Then make a decision?"
Emperor Xiling said, "Yes."
……
Li Yujiao was taken to a gorgeous bedroom. On a soft big bed, a woman in her thirties was lying on it. Although she was pale and weak, she was still as beautiful as the Sleeping Beauty in the fairy tale.
Emperor Xiling said to Li Yujiao, "My princess has had abdominal pain for a year and has been unconscious for half a month. I have invited famous doctors from all over the world, but they all said that something has grown in her stomach, but they just can't take it out!"
