Tokyo of the Zhou Dynasty made some preparations... Actually, the preparations had already begun when they returned from the Battle of Jinyang last year; the attack on Shu early this year was only a prelude, and even only a preliminary preparation for this war. .

Xiang Xun was the first to be recruited back to Beijing; Han Tong served as a patrol inspector inside and outside Beijing. The envoys of Wuyue State returned to the south and took away the Zhou Dynasty's edict, so that Wuyue State prepared for war and attacked the Southern Tang State together; and sent the envoys to order Nanping State (Jingnan) to dispatch troops to the war.

In mid-May, the emperor of the Zhou Dynasty decided to start war against the Southern Tang Dynasty. Li Gu, the prime minister, was sent first, and authorized the Huainan former army camp to deploy and concurrently serve as the prefect of Shouzhou in Luzhou; Han Lingkun, Shi Yanchao and other dozens of generals and guards Ma Bujun entourage. Ten days later, Chai Rong hosted a banquet in the Jinxiang Hall to celebrate Xiangxun's achievements in the Hui Dynasty. He rewarded the clothes, gold ribbons, silverware, silk cloth, and saddle horses. Then Xiang Xun stayed behind in Tokyo, sentenced Kaifeng government affairs, and appointed the guards. Wang Pu and Han Tong were appointed as deputy and stayed in Tokyo.

At the end of May, Chai Rong heard a report from Li Gu that Zhou Jun had set up a pontoon bridge across Huaishui. Shi Yanchao's forward attacked and defeated thousands of the Southern Tang Army under Shouzhou City and entered Shouzhou. Chai Rong then ordered the deployment of various roads to mobilize soldiers and horses; since he led the army to leave Tokyo, the troops from all over the country marched for Huainan, mobilizing hundreds of thousands of troops.

Shouzhou became the opening for the Zhou army to break through the Huai River defense line. It was in the middle of the Huai River, southeast of Tokyo. Chai Rong sent people to urge Li Gu to attack the city, intending to occupy Shouzhou as a foothold to attack the Huainan army.

Fu Shi got his wish and set off with the army. She was riding in a large carriage driven by four horses. The spacious carriage can reduce some bumps and the road is relatively flat; but the weather is very hot, the sun is directly on the roof, and the enclosed space in the carriage is like a steamer.

From time to time, she asked the female officer to open the driving curtain for ventilation, and when the curtain was opened, she could see the vast scene outside from the carriage. Zhou Jun marched on the plains. Several roads in the wilderness were lined up with troops. The continuous dust and fog covered the air, and people seemed to be migrating across the country.

Fu's thoughts were also shifted to major events due to such a spectacular sight. He thought for a while and recalled some of his impressions of Prime Minister Li Gu. He said: Let Li Gu control the forwards, it is better to let the guards go all the way. The command made Li Zhong go in. She thought for a while, and then dismissed the idea of ​​speaking to the official family. Who knows how the official family thought about Li Zhongjin?

Suddenly, a nausea surged in his heart, Fu Shi recovered, and a retching, Mu Shanggong next to him hurriedly took a white handkerchief and put it under Fu Shi's mouth. Fu Shi reached out his handkerchief and covered his mouth, his face turned pale.

Mushang Palace was shocked: "Queen Empress, are you okay? The slave servant will immediately notify Cao Tai to find you a doctor."

"Wait a minute." Fu clan grabbed Mu Shang Palace, frowning and said, "I asked to go out with the army, if I can't stand it in this comfortable carriage, why do I come out?"

Mu Shanggong said: "You didn't have to come out. The official is a peerless Mingjun. You will definitely be able to win the Southern Tang Dynasty, so you don't have to worry about it."

Fu Shi shook his head, with a tired voice in his voice, "Those soldiers outside, they don't have to worry about walking under the scorching sun, don't be surprised."

Mushanggong watched the queen with concern. The queen's appearance was indeed very squeamish, and her slightly pointed chin made her appearance a little more natural and delicate, and she looked weak. She is usually comfortable in the palace, and she really suffers following the march.

The Chinese army took the emperor's honor guard, as well as many civil servants and eunuchs, and walked very slowly. After three consecutive days of scorching sun, the men and women have not yet reached Chenzhou. Fu Shi had been in a square enclosed "steamer" for three days, and seemed to have gotten used to it. The maid beside him felt calm. However, Fu Shi was slouched all day, saying it was too bumpy...The road here is indeed fairly flat, and the carriage is also wide, but the bottom is hardwood and naturally there is no shock absorption facility, and it is really bumpy to walk. Just relying on the soft cushions laid in the carriage to reduce vibration, the soft blanket wool also made the people inside feel hotter.

It was just noon that day, and suddenly the sky was covered with clouds and thunders hit a few times. After a while, I heard the rapid raindrops of "cracking" on the roof of the car. The heat on the ground steamed the wetness of the rain, and Fu sighed softly: "It's finally cool!"

After a while, it started to rain heavily. Cao Tai, the eunuch, rode to the carriage, dismounted and reported to him as he walked: "We will arrive in Chenzhou in two hours. The officials let everyone ride in the rain to station in Chenzhou."

The heavy rain was blown into the carriage by the wind, and Mushan Palace hurriedly pulled down the curtain to cover the rain. However, the rain was so heavy that the silk wool in the carriage was soaked in a short while, and the clothes of the two people in the carriage were also wetted by the water splashing in from the gap between the bamboo curtains.

"Cough cough cough..." Fu Shi coughed a few times while covering his mouth. Mu Shanggong was very anxious, touched her forehead with the back of his hand, and said suddenly: "Oh, it's hot! What can I do with this?"

Fu cried a few times, and took a breath: "Didn't you say that you will be in town in two hours? When you arrive in Chenzhou, you ask Cao Tai to report to the official and say I am sick."

Mu Shanggong said: "Does the empress just spend two hours like this?"

Fu Shiqiang said with a smile: "You are now looking for a doctor, he has no place to cook the medicine. The rain is so heavy outside, there is no shop in front of the village...The officials all made an order to stay in Chenzhou ."

Fu's only felt that he had no strength at all, he felt nauseated in his heart, and his head was dizzy and the carriage was shaking again, as if the world was spinning. The most uncomfortable is the headache and flustered, much more difficult than just pain. She wanted to sleep for a while, but was too flustered to sleep.

Mushang Palace saw her look like this, so he didn't care about following her will, so he quickly called Cao Tai and asked him to report to the emperor. Soon Cao Tai came back and said: "Let the groom hurry up, drive the car to Chenzhou first, and then settle down for the doctor to see the sick. The straight horse soldiers in the inner hall will **** us."

A group of carts and horses accelerated, rushed to Chenzhou to let the magistrate arrange the mansion, and quickly carried Fu Shi into the bedroom. Mu Shang Palace took the maid to change her wet clothes and hung them in front of the bed. A layer of yarn covered it. In a short while, an elderly doctor took his entourage and bowed into the house carrying a box. Ask someone to take out the queen's hand and get her pulse. The doctor carefully pinched only the index finger on her wrist, everyone did not dare to vent their breath, and waited quietly.

After a while, the imperial doctor said: "The pulse is weak, the body is too weak, and there is damp heat poison."

Then the imperial doctor walked out of the bedroom and sat down at the table outside to grind the ink and write the prescription. Cao Tai reminded him next to him: "The lady is delicate and delicate, you have to prescribe the medicine properly."

The imperial doctor touched the gray beard and said, "Even if the father-in-law keeps the medicine dregs, people who are not sick with these medicines will be fine. How dare the old man prescribe tiger and wolf medicine to the queen?"

Cao Tai said again: "But you have to prescribe the right medicine. If you eat it, you don’t eat it. Isn’t it a delay in your condition?"

The imperial doctor sighed, seemingly unable to answer, and started writing carefully.

In the evening, the army arrived in Chenzhou stationed, and the emperor came to the mansion guarded by the guards in the inner hall, and set the concourse here. Then he went to the inner courtyard to visit the Fu clan. He opened the gauze and walked in. Seeing that he was an official, he struggled to sit up. Chai Rong hurriedly stepped forward to hold her down, and said nicely: "Don't move, lie down in peace." He looked back at the **** and palace maid standing next to him, and asked: "What did the royal doctor say, what disease did the queen have?" /

Cao Tai hurriedly knelt down and said: "Returning to the emperor, the doctor said that the queen was weak and was exposed to heat and humidity."

Chai Rong nodded, waiting to say something of relief. At this moment, an **** outside whispered: "The emperor, Shouzhou sent someone to say something is urgent."

Chai Rong hurriedly said to the Fu family: "You can recover from your illness with peace of mind. I will come as soon as I go."

Fu's angrily said: "Big things matter, I just occasionally feel the cold."

In a short while, someone outside heard hurriedly: "The Southern Tang Army reinforces Zhengyang and wants to take a warship to attack the forward floating bridge. Prime Minister Li ordered Shi Yanchao and others who attacked Shouzhou City to retreat and guard the floating bridge. "

Then they heard footsteps and the group left the inner courtyard.

Fu's then remembered that he wanted to figure out how to imply that the official came, but he had a splitting headache, his heart was flustered, and he couldn't calm down and think about it. Now that the official family was gone again, she had no choice but to give up.

After a while, she coughed again, and Mushan Palace asked the maid to help turn her over and gently stroked her vest. When he started, Fu's body was very soft, as if he had no bones.

She whispered again: "Let Cao Tai go to serve next to the official house and see what the official house is doing and how the war ahead is."

Mushang Palace hurriedly said: "Manny, don't think about those things, the most important thing is to maintain your body."

The palace lady brought up the boiled soup. Mu Shang Palace first tasted the heat and cold, and then took two breaths, which then asked Fu Shi to stand up and drink the medicine. The palace person brought the hourglass to time again, and every time the medicine was given, he was carefully punctual.

Unexpectedly, the daily intake of medicine still did not improve, but Fu's disease became more and more serious. After a few days, she passed out unconsciously every day, and could only eat the soft white rice porridge. The oil is even more reluctant to touch a drop.

Chai Rong believed that the royal doctors with the army were not clever, and decreed to send a quick horse to Tokyo to summon other doctors. The crowd travelled quickly, and they arrived in Chenzhou within a few days. A group of imperial doctors diagnosed Fu's family overnight. They only said that they had suffered from heat, and they could not tell a serious illness. Everyone thought about the prescriptions they had taken before, and carefully checked the remaining medicine residues, and prescribed some medicine for Fu Shi to continue taking.

She occasionally asked when she was awake, wondering where the emperor was. I vaguely heard Cao Tai say that Zhou Jun fought a big victory near Zhengyang and defeated the reinforcements of the Southern Tang Army. The beheading alone was tens of thousands; but the important towns such as Shouzhou were still unable to attack for a long time. The official family seems to be leaving Chenzhou, and is going south to Shouzhou.
