Chapter 155 Something happened suddenly
The darkness outside gradually faded away, and the light gradually came in, but the house became hotter and hotter.
Xie Lingxiao seemed unwilling to just give up the kiss and longed for more.
He left Shen Jingxuan's lips and kissed her jaw, neck, and all the way down...
"Hmm..." Shen Jingxuan had already collapsed on the bed.
Sensing Xie Lingxiao's desire, Shen Jingxuan pushed him away with her hands as if she had no bones: "Ah...Ah Xiao."
Feeling Shen Jingxuan's rejection, Xie Lingxiao suddenly came to his senses.
He hugged Shen Jingxuan, his head nestled in her neck, motionless.
Thinking of his desire just now, if Shen Jingxuan hadn't stopped him in time, he really would not have been able to control himself.
The early morning sunlight shone directly into the room through the window. Shen Jingxuan had not slept an eye all night and had already fallen into a deep sleep, unable to resist the sleepiness.
Xie Lingxiao kissed Shen Jingxuan on the forehead, then stood up and left.
He had just stepped into the palace and had not had time to change his clothes when Ling Feng knocked on the door.
"Master, something happened." Ling Feng knocked on the door anxiously.
Xie Lingxiao put down the clothes in his hands and asked Ling Feng to come to the room to answer.
"What happened?" Xie Lingxiao asked, pursing his lips.
Ling Feng was anxious: "Master, something happened in the military camp."
When I returned home yesterday, the military camp was still fine. I didn't expect such a big thing to happen overnight.
The matter in the military camp was a big deal, so Xie Lingxiao didn't have time to ask in detail and left the room with Ling Feng.
After he got on the carriage, he looked at Ling Feng puzzledly and said, "Tell me more details."
Ling Feng then told Xie Lingxiao the news he had received.
Early this morning, news came from the military camp that some soldiers had stomachaches for unknown reasons.
At first, no one took it seriously, but as more and more people had problems, the deputy general realized that something was wrong.
He hurriedly sent out the message, and then there was no further news.
At this point, more than two hours had passed, and I didn't know what the current situation of the military camp was.
The carriage sped along, and half an hour later, Xie Lingxiao and Ling Feng arrived at the military camp.
Upon learning that more than half of the soldiers in the barracks had developed stomachaches, Xie Lingxiao hurriedly sent Ling Feng to investigate.
But it is not enough to just find out the cause, the discomfort of the soldiers must be resolved first. Xie Lingxiao sent someone to call the military doctor for questioning.
"Is there any way to solve this problem?" Xie Lingxiao asked angrily.
Such a thing has never happened in the military camp. How could someone as smart as Xie Lingxiao not know that it was man-made?
The military doctor looked worried: "Your Highness, although the medicine can be used to treat it, it will not have a miraculous effect in a short period of time. You need to slowly recuperate for three to five days."
"Also, although the camp has all the medicinal materials, with so many soldiers taking medicine together, the medicinal materials are in short supply, and there is only enough for the soldiers to use for one day."
When Xie Lingxiao heard this, his brows furrowed tighter and tighter.
The emperor had already tried his best to take back the military power, so how could he give them the silver they needed?
In recent years, not only silver and food, but even the usual military supplies have not been distributed, let alone medicinal materials.
Now, Xie Lingxiao is the only one who is responsible for the military supplies of all the soldiers. It is really difficult for him to take out a large amount of medicinal materials suddenly.
If we go back to the capital and buy medicine from all the major pharmacies, even if we search all the pharmacies in the capital, it will not be enough for the soldiers' needs.
Even if it is enough for the soldiers, this method is not advisable. After all, people in the capital also need medicinal herbs, so they cannot be looted completely.
Xie Lingxiao said with a worried look on his face: "Prepare today's medicine first, I will find a way."
There was no way to stay here, so Xie Lingxiao had no choice but to get up and return to the city.
"Lingfeng, go to each pharmacy and see how many medicinal materials you can buy." Xie Lingxiao rubbed his forehead.
"Yes, master." Ling Feng responded.
I didn't sleep last night, and something like this happened early in the morning. I'm really exhausted physically and mentally.
Xie Lingxiao sat in the carriage, closing his eyes to rest while thinking about what to do next.
Unable to think of a result, Xie Lingxiao gently lifted the car curtain and looked out the window.
A breeze swept in, gently brushing Xie Lingxiao's hair, and he frowned.
Looking at the person who caught his sight, Xie Lingxiao's worried expression disappeared visibly.
Xie Lingxiao stopped the carriage, got out quickly, walked quickly to Shen Jingxuan and blocked her way.
Shen Jingxuan raised her eyes suspiciously and looked at the person in front of her: "Why are you here?"
Xie Lingxiao had left in the early morning when it was already light, but now he was here. Didn't he go back home to rest?
"Something happened and needs to be dealt with." Xie Lingxiao replied.
Hearing that he had something to do, Shen Jingxuan urged: "Then go and deal with it quickly."
"I...I want to go find Amo."
After saying this, Shen Jingxuan took a step forward and walked towards the Qianyu Chamber of Commerce.
After hearing what she said, Xie Lingxiao took Shen Jingxuan directly into the carriage regardless of whether Shen Jingxuan agreed or not.
Shen Jingxuan was puzzled: "Ah Xiao? What are you doing?"
Didn't Xie Lingxiao say he was busy? Why did he take her away for no reason?
"You are not allowed to go." Xie Lingxiao said angrily.
He had just left in the morning. Instead of staying in the house to catch up on sleep, Shen Jingxuan left the house so quickly to look for another man.
Shen Jingxuan looked at him and raised her eyebrows slightly: "Are you feeling sour?"
Xie Lingxiaojun blushed: "You..."
He stared at Shen Jingxuan. How could he not feel jealous? The girl he loved went to look for another man. Which man would not feel jealous?
"Then don't go. What did you do just now?" Shen Jingxuan looked at him with the corners of her lips raised, but she couldn't let them fall.
Xie Lingxiao told Shen Jingxuan about what happened in the military camp. Before he finished speaking, the worry that had just disappeared gradually returned to his face.
"You mean, the only thing missing now is medicinal herbs?" Shen Jingxuan asked.
Xie Lingxiao said in annoyance: "Well, more than half of the soldiers are sick, and we can't gather so many medicinal materials at once."
Shen Jingxuan lowered her head and pondered for a while, and suddenly remembered the medicinal herbs that Li Luo had purchased before, but distant water cannot quench immediate thirst after all.
"Where is Ling Feng? Let him go to see the master." Shen Jingxuan reminded.
After saying that, Shen Jingxuan lifted the car curtain and said, "Chun Tao, you show us the way. We are going to the farm."
"Yes, miss." Chuntao replied.
Xie Lingxiao was puzzled: "Xuan'er, what are you doing at the farm?"
Now time is tight and all the herbs must be prepared before tomorrow. If we go to the farm, wouldn’t it be a waste of time?
Seeing Xie Lingxiao's thoughts, Shen Jingxuan said, "Chen Yi and the others have grown medicinal herbs. Let's go and see if there is anything you need."
Xie Lingxiao was a little annoyed when he heard this. Shen Jingxuan was not the kind of person who did things without knowing when to stop. She always did things cautiously.
He pulled Shen Jingxuan into his arms: "Xuan'er, I shouldn't have imagined it. I should have believed that you wouldn't do anything useless."
Seeing his guilty look, Shen Jingxuan raised the corners of her lips: "Then are you going to punish yourself?"
Xie Lingxiao blamed himself and felt guilty. Shen Jingxuan felt a little bit sorry for him, but she didn't want such a thing to happen again in the future.
Only by making him remember this lesson will he stop doubting and distrusting her in the future.
"Punishment, Xuan'er, how do you say the punishment?" Xie Lingxiao said hurriedly.
As long as Shen Jingxuan is not angry, he will be willing to be punished.
Shen Jingxuan glanced at her and said, "I'll punish you by not showing up in front of me for a month."
Seeing him running to her boudoir every day, this punishment should be enough.
"That won't work." Xie Lingxiao said anxiously. It was absolutely impossible.
He couldn't see her enough every day and wished he could live in the Duke Zhenguo's Mansion permanently.
If he hasn't seen him for a month now, he will definitely go crazy early.
An idea suddenly came to Xie Lingxiao, and he raised the corners of his lips: "I have a way to make sure Xuan'er is satisfied."
Shen Jingxuan looked at his smile and suddenly trembled. She absolutely did not agree with Xie Lingxiao's method.
