”Husband, what happened to you?”
After eating breakfast, Physician Liu brought Cheng Qixia away from Mr. Xue with a smile on his face and returned to the neighboring room to continue busying himself. The amount of medicinal herbs prepared for the war was enough for the master and his disciples to busy themselves for more than ten days.
Mr. Xue sat cross-legged and sighed, like a burnt trumpet flower, attracting the concern of the children of licorice. Mr. Xue sighed, then waved his hand at him: ”It's nothing, I just received critical damage and am recovering!”
”Huh?”
The licorice didn't understand.
Mr. Xue looked up at the sky: ”The blood tank is empty, we urgently need the wet nurse and shaman!”
”What?”
Poor licorice was even more confused. Mr. Xue waved his hand without any intention to explain. The licorice scratched his head, reminding him, ”Husband, don't forget to meet with the general when you return.”
”Got it!”
The licorice cleared the table and went to wash the dishes.
Mr. Xue sighed, cheered up, and went to his bag to rummage through his clothes.
Most of the clothes in the bag belonged to the autumn and winter. Originally, he had planned to send them home to change into thinner clothes to make it easier for him to travel. In this ancient era, where there was no El Niño phenomenon, these clothes were just right for this period of time.
He rummaged in his bag and found warm underwear, a shirt, a sweater, a suit jacket, slacks, and a woolen coat. Mr. Xue was 1.85 meters tall and was dressed like that. He looked very threatening and had a tall and sturdy temperament.
Liquorice looked at him with a face full of envy, ”Although this outfit is strange, my husband looks really good in it.”
Mr. Xue laughed in a good mood and corrected him: ”You're also a man. Come, brother will teach you. Praise men shouldn't be considered good-looking. If you want to talk about handsome and handsome.”
The licorice grinned and scratched its head.
After cleaning up and arranging for the dogs to leave, there was still a quarter of an hour left before the carriage came to pick them up. The licorice helped Mr. Xue carry the wooden box onto the carriage, and they got into the carriage together.
”We're here!”
With the sound of the driver's reminder, Mr. Xue and Liu Gan lifted the curtain and got off the carriage. Mr. Xue looked up. It was a vermillion door with the words' General's Estate 'written in large letters. There were soldiers standing guard at the entrance.
The soldier on guard apparently recognized the licorice, ”Xiaoji, what have you come for?”
”Thank you, Big Brother Liu, for your message. The licorice has brought Jiankang, Mr. Xue, with it.”
The soldier nodded and looked at Mr. Xue: ”Is this man famous?”
Mr. Xue quickly handed over the folder. This clip was a gift from his dead girlfriend. It was black alloy and had a leather cover. Mr. Xue had been using it all the time and had taken good care of it.
He looked at Mr. Xue doubtfully, and Mr. Xue smiled as he stepped forward, and made an open demonstration, revealing the paper with the name inside. The sergeant finally understood, and his attitude towards Mr. Xue was inexplicably much more polite, ”Mr. Xue, please wait a moment, I will go and report to him.
”Thank you, Sergeant.” This is a small gift that I have prepared. It is just a small gift, not much respect. I am just trying to express my gratitude. Please forgive me. ”I'll have to trouble you to tell me.”
”My lord, please be courteous. I will definitely inform the general. Please wait a moment.”
The soldier turned around and walked in. After a short while, he came out, ”The general is waiting for Mr. Xue in the mansion. Please, my lord.”
Mr. Xue cupped his fists in thanks and followed the soldier into the room.
After entering, there were people who came to lead away the licorice, leaving him alone to follow the soldier. Compared to the gardens of the Tang Dynasty which Mr. Xue had visited in the modern era, this small courtyard was simple and crude.
After crossing the courtyard, they quickly arrived at a door.
