Chapter 253: Exploring the Waterway (1)
Wu brought the medicine and gave each of them a bowl to drink.
She looked at the prince lying on the kang and said to Li Lanzhen with heartache.
"I'm afraid this child has been poisoned. With my skills, I can't treat this disease for him.
We must send him to Youzhou city as soon as possible to see a doctor and get some medicine.
Poisoning is a serious matter and needs to be cured in time.
This child is so young, he is suffering!"
After saying that, she glanced at Silver Fox.
Silver Fox nodded.
I know medicine, he was indeed poisoned, I know how to detoxify him."
Mrs. Wu was happy. "That's great. If you need any medicine, just tell me and I'll get it for you."
Silver Fox said, "Okay, I'll come find you if you need me. Thank you, auntie."
Li Lanzhen knew the medicinal fields in the space, and Silver Fox should be very familiar with them. She would put both of them into the space at night, and Silver Fox would just watch over them and treat them.
Linglong was too young, and after crying and being nervous, she fell asleep next to her brother on the kang.
Su Chen, however, frowned, sat beside him, and said nothing, just holding the prince's hand tightly.
Han Mingxiang came and called them to eat.
Li Lanzhi woke Linglong up and held her in her arms.
Tell Silver Fox to come with us to eat, or stay here, I will ask someone to bring the food over."
The silver fox said, "I'll have my meal here."
Su Chen also said, "Grandma, can I eat here too?"
Li Lanzhen readily agreed and said, "Okay, you and your uncle can stay here. I'll bring the food over later and you can eat here."
He casually put Linglong, who was sleeping soundly, on the kang.
"Linglong, would you like to eat here with your brother and uncle?"
She nodded her head and said sullenly, "Okay, thank you grandma."
When Li Lanzhen and Han Mingxiang arrived at the dining room, they saw three food boxes on the table at the entrance.
Xue Nizi saw her come in and said.
"Mom, I cooked rice porridge, vegetable pancakes and two refreshing side dishes for the Silver Fox brothers.
The food for Su Chen and Ling Long also contained rice porridge, vegetable pancakes, and potatoes stewed with dried meat."
"Okay, you did a great job. I'll send it to them now."
Li Lanzhen and Han Mingxiang went back home carrying three lunch boxes, put the food down for them, and returned to the dining room.
When Han Shunde saw Li Lanzhen come in, he waved for them to sit at that table.
Li Lanzhen saw that there were still two seats reserved at the table, so she went over. They must be waiting for him to say something.
Ever since fleeing famine, Li Lanzhen's behavior and words have made everyone deeply aware of the truth of the saying "Women hold up half the sky."
So in Taohuayuan, women are involved in all decisions.
When eating, there is not such a strict separation between men and women.
When I was in Hanjia Village, some families did not allow women to sit at the table.
But in Taohuayuan, there are no such rules.
After Li Lanzhen sat down, she drank two sips of porridge to calm herself down.
Han Shunde then spoke, "Sister Lan Zhen, today Silver Fox and that boy were able to come to our Peach Blossom Land.
I am worried that one day someone might follow the flow of water to the Peach Blossom Spring.
We just discussed it a little while ago, and we are going to go to the upper reaches of the river tomorrow to see if we can set up some traps to block those who want to come in."
Li Lanzhen finished the vegetable pancake in her hand, took a sip of porridge, nodded and said.
“What you thought of, I thought of too.
I also want to go downstream and see if the water of this river can pass through Youzhou City.
If we pass through Youzhou City, it will be more convenient for us to sell vegetables or go to Youzhou City in the future."
When everyone heard this, they looked up at Li Lanzhen, their eyes sparkling and they nodded continuously.
"Yes, yes, yes, why didn't we think of this? Lanzhou girls are really smart!"
Li Lanzhen smiled and said, "You are also very smart.
It is possible to think of going upstream to see the river water intake situation.
Then, tomorrow we will go our separate ways and do our own things."
Xue Lao Hu said, "I think the security patrols in our Peach Blossom Land cannot be stopped for a moment and must be strengthened."
Han Shunde continued, "Yes, let's arrange these things tomorrow. Who will stay in the village to do daily work and security tasks, and who will go to the upper reaches of the river to check the river entrance.
Sister Lan Zhen wants to go outside the river to have a look."
Han Mingxiang turned and looked at Li Lanzhen and said.
"Mom, you can't do it alone, I'll accompany you.
Also, how do we get out? Without a boat, sitting on a wooden plank is not very practical, right? "
Only then did Li Lanzhen think of this problem.
Yes, I was so anxious to go out along the river to take a look that I didn’t even think of what tools to use.
After thinking for a while, he said, "Then don't worry about it. I will discuss with my father tomorrow to see if we can build a simple bamboo or wooden raft."
Li Erhan heard his daughter's words at the table next to him and said to Li Lanzhen.
"Girl, I just thought of this problem and have an idea in mind. Tomorrow, your brother and I will take a few guys and work overtime to make a car for you that can run on water."
Li Lanzhen smiled brightly at his father, "Thank you, Dad. It's great to have you."
When Li Erhan heard Li Lanzhen's childish words, he also laughed proudly.
After dinner, Li Lanzhen said to Han Shunde and the others, "Wait a moment. I will give you all the money I earned from selling vegetables and people in the village today."
After she had paid all the bills and given them the money, she hurried back.
The two children, Su Chen and Linglong, have fallen asleep.
Li Lanzhen carried Linglong over and placed her on Han Yuemei's kang in the west room. She usually slept here with Miaomiao.
After coming over, he said to Silver Fox, "I'll take Su Chen over as well. Otherwise, if I put you two in the secret place at night and leave him alone in this room, he'll be scared when he wakes up."
Silver Fox nodded and said yes.
Li Lanzhen put Su Chen on the kang in her room in the east room.
Next to them were Douhua and Datou. Han Yuemei had washed the hands and feet of the two children, covered them with quilts, and they were asleep.
After taking off Su Chen's coat and covering him with a quilt, Li Lanzhen went to the east wing.
When she entered the house she said, "We are going into the secret place now."
Judging from the prince's appearance, Li Lanzhen thought that since the poisoning lasted too long, it would be better to detoxify and receive treatment as soon as possible.
After the three people entered the space, they appeared directly in the thatched hut built by Silver Fox next to the medicinal field.
Li Lanzhen looked at the prince who was still in a coma.
"Silver Fox, how old is the prince this year?"
“Aunt, the prince is 11 years old this year, and the prince was poisoned by the imperial concubine.
The concubine's son is ten years old this year. Her father is the General of Zhenbei, and his brother led the army to suppress the army of King Jin.
After the imperial concubine's brother returned to the capital, she became even more unscrupulous and domineering in the harem, suppressing and bullying the queen in various ways.
The emperor has just ascended the throne and his power is weak. Half of the people in the court are on the side of the General Zhenbei.
Therefore, the Empress had a hard time in the harem, and the Emperor also had a hard time in the court.”
After hearing this, Li Lanzhen sighed inwardly and felt secretly fortunate.
I have traveled through time and space and have been transported to the body of such an old woman.
If I traveled through time to the harem, or to the home of some wealthy family.
I guess he'll be dead within three episodes.
She really can't stand intrigues and schemes!
