From the capital to the border, it would take a month's journey at full speed. When the group arrived near the border, it was already the beginning of June, and it was very hot in the carriage, and it was late at night, so everyone had to camp in place and spend the night in the woods.
After a month of close contact, the other nine imperial physicians have turned from disdainful to Ling Mu'er to admiration now, and all of them are extremely polite to her.
"Miss Ling will live in this tent. It's okay for us old men to squeeze together. It's just that you must tell us the story about the 'surgery' in detail tomorrow morning. We have been thinking about it for a few years. The imperial doctor with superb medical skills has never known that there is such a way to treat people's diseases, and he will arrive at the barracks at noon tomorrow, so he probably won't have time to listen."
Looking at the tent that everyone had set up for her, Ling Muer clasped her fists in gratitude, "Thank you for your daily care. Don't worry, I will share everything else I have seen and heard with you before I arrive at the barracks tomorrow. Then Rest well tonight, good night everyone."
She said she was accompanying her as a military doctor, but she still received a lot of preferential treatment from Su Ce along the way. Looking at the softness and softness in the tent, she couldn't help but curl her lips. Because of his own medical skills, he made friends with her so quickly.
After all, in this era, there are no female doctors at all, and even if there are, they are just witches. And these old imperial doctors are all moderate, they used to think of themselves as lofty in the past, it is rare to bow down to others, and they are still women.
Although the journey was bumpy, it never hurt her.
"Are you asleep?" Su Ce's familiar voice came from outside the battalion commander.
Ling Mu'er just lay down, thinking that he will be able to see his elder brother tomorrow, he has not seen Shangguan Shaochen for three full months, and he really misses him so much that he is so excited that he has insomnia.
"Is there something the little prince wants from me?"
With her whole body shrunk in the tent, only her head was exposed, Ling Muer blinked her big bright eyes.
Su Ce took a closer look, and couldn't help curling the corners of his lips. This month has been the happiest and happiest month for him. He can be alone with Ling Muer every day, watching her chatting with those old guys. Although he would be jealous when he was hot, he could see her every day when he opened his eyes, and he could see her every day before going to bed.
"I found a good thing, if you are not tired, I will take you to have a look?"
Su Ce pointed with his chin to the diagonally opposite forest, Ling Muer walked out of the tent and followed his gaze, then frowned and said with disgust, "Your good thing is to take me to drill in the woods? "
"Where do you want to go?"
Holding her wrist, Su Ce strode forward, and said in a voice that only two people could hear, "I'm really tired after this time, I found a hot spring in front of me, I'll guard it for you, you go take a good soak Bubble."
After the two walked into Linzi, Su Ce led the way, winding around, even Ling Mu'er, who had an excellent sense of direction, was confused. Just when she was impatient, she saw the white mist curling up in front of her, approaching At first glance, it is really a small hot spring.
"My God, how did you find out?"
It's true that everyone didn't find Su Ce when they started camping just now, so they went looking for this?
"I haven't asked you to take a good bath for more than a month. When I first came here, I found that the mountain is located in a good location, especially the leaves of Linzi here are very green. I guessed that there must be a baby here. I didn't expect to be guessed by me."
Su Ce seemed to be offering a treasure, with a smile in his triumphant eyes, where there was no breeze riding on a steed, obviously he picked up a precious child.
"I'll watch for you, don't worry, no one will come over, you go take a dip, it doesn't matter if it takes longer."
Ling Muer's eyes widened in shock, "It's because you're guarding me that I don't feel at ease."
In fact, during this period of time, she would quietly hide in the space to take a bath when resting late at night, but in order not to arouse suspicion, she would always go in every three or four days. Although some imperial doctors would curiously ask her why she was always refreshed, but they were sweaty, Su Ce would explain it to her every time she heard it, because she was a girl with body fragrance.
"Why, so worried that I will do something to you?"
Su Ce lowered his head and approached her step by step, his evil and affectionate eyes fixed on her eyes, and his bewitching and evil voice filled her ears, as if it could lure her soul away.
"Let me warn you, I have studied a lot of poisons with those old guys recently, and there are no less than five kinds of poisons in my pocket. If you accidentally take out one of them, you will suffer."
Ling Mu'er backed up step by step, she was about to fall into the hot spring below, so Su Ce had the intention to stop.
Suddenly, he smiled, his lips hooked into a wild smile, so good-looking that one couldn't bear to blink, "If I really want to touch you, do you think you can escape my palm?"
After saying that, he took out a strip of black cloth and tied it on his face to cover his eyes, then jumped to a branch of a tree four or five meters high beside him, "Don't worry, I've checked everything, there is no one around, the barracks No one will come here, and I will do what I say I won’t take advantage of you. I will enter the barracks tomorrow and there will be no such good opportunity, Miss Ling should cherish it.”
Raising her head, she watched Su Ce's pitiful appearance sitting on the branch of a tree with her back turned to her. She was moved for a moment,
During the past month, Su Ce is indeed a good person.
She was indeed very greedy for the hot spring in front of her, and if she could take a dip, it would indeed drive away her exhaustion. Ling Muer didn't think about it, she folded all her underwear aside, and jumped into the hot spring.
Well, it's really comfortable.
I have to admit that Su Ce has taken great care of her during this time. He will bring fresh fruits every morning and hot water in the evening. When the army is resting, he will bring wild rabbits and pheasants to roast like a magic trick. Eat, the fattest piece of meat will be left to her every time.
Even the old and stubborn imperial doctors advised her to give up Shangguan Shaochen and marry Su Ce.
Soaking quietly in the hot spring, Ling Muer closed her eyes and took a nap, feeling that the meridians all over her body had been opened.
She turned around, enjoying the comfort brought by the natural hot spring, and couldn't help but raise her sexy lips.
In the middle of the night, Chan'er's cry was heard from time to time around, the moon was hanging high, illuminating this side of the spring alone, and looking up at the tree branch opposite, there seemed to be a figure, and it seemed to have left.
Su Ce said that after turning over the mountain in front, the camp would be there. According to everyone's legs and feet, they would arrive at noon tomorrow. I don't know how happy my elder brother would be if he knew she was coming.
Su Ce also said that on the other side of the camp was Lingjia Village, where she had lived for 20 years. Standing on the top of the hill, she could even see houses in the village, and asked her if she wanted to go back and have a look.
Of course she turned her head and refused, and was very repulsive.
In that place where there are only painful memories for her, where there is a person she will never forgive even if she dies in this life, even if she passes by, she will not take a look at it, so how could she go back over the mountain on purpose.
But Ling Muer suddenly thought of the fact that it was Shangguan Shaochen. She suddenly understood why he chose to live in Lingjia Village. It turned out that everything was planned by him because it was closer to the border. No wonder he didn't give himself an answer before he left. It's because he planned this matter for many years. I'm afraid he stayed in Lingjia Village just to get familiar with the terrain and for today's border battle!
Thinking of this, she sighed sadly, not because the eldest brother concealed it from her, but because he would not give up lightly since he had been planning for so long, right?
So what is the elder brother's explanation to her? Is it to persuade her to complete her great cause with him, or is it because of her that she will give up years of planning?
Thinking of this question made her head hurt badly, when Ling Mu'er shook her head and opened her eyes again, Yue'er shyly hid in the clouds.
There was really no sign of Su Ce on the tree, maybe she had to leave first for something, so she boldly stood up quietly, planning to swim to the center of the hot spring.
The hot spring looked small from the outside, but after she got down, she realized that it was very big. She walked for a long time without reaching the center, and the water was getting deeper and deeper, so she simply went back to the edge and felt the stones.
Accidentally, she seemed to bump into something at her feet, and her heart rose to her throat in an instant, because the moonlight disappeared and the surroundings were so dark that she couldn't see clearly, so she stretched out her hand to look forward.
The gentle touch in her hand made her open her mouth instantly.
Before she was about to scream, a thick and wet palm covered her mouth very quickly, "Shut up."
Why does this voice sound familiar.
Ling Mu'er tried to struggle, but the man seemed to understand her intentions, and immediately turned her around, and soon there was the sound of splashing water behind him.
It should be the voice of the man stepping back, she guessed, and said cautiously: "Who are you? How long have you been here."
Damn it, could it be that her relaxation during this period of time made her forget even the most basic sense of protection, no one knew about the sudden appearance in this hot spring.
"Sorry girl, I've been here for a long time. I was here when the girl just came down. In order not to disturb the girl's quietness, I kept silent. I thought you could leave first."
So she was wrong.
Ling Mu'er looked forward nervously, trying to see everything in front of her clearly, but it was really too dark here, and there were reeds around. The man seemed to be very familiar with everything around him again, he found an excellent hiding spot so that Ling Mu'er could only see half of his body clearly.
But it was the other side, Ling Muer still recognized it at a glance.
"Brother?"
That's right, that voice, that sense of touch, that body shape, is Shangguan Shaochen!
She never expected to meet the person she was thinking of here, Ling Muer was overjoyed, hurried back to the shore, put on her clothes, and carefully went to the place where the man was in the hot spring, "I'm Muer, big brother, I'm here to find is you."
For a long while, there was no movement in the hot spring. Ling Muer once thought that he had left, but she discerned carefully that the faint sound of breathing was still there.
She frowned, "Shangguan Shaochen, isn't it you?"
Hearing the familiar name, the man who had been hiding came out of the water with a 'crash', and when he approached Ling Mu'er, his voice was wary and alienated, "Miss knows me?"
