Chapter 774 - 771: Siege_1
The doctor frowned and shook his head. "I’ve looked through many medical books and found remedies for the plague from hundreds of years ago. But these remedies are useless for the current epidemic. Mainly... it’s because our Liang Kingdom hasn’t had an epidemic for a hundred years. If we could get the remedies used during the great epidemic in Jiaozhou of the Jin Kingdom, we could study them carefully..."
Zhao Sheng gritted his back teeth and comforted the worried doctor. "The Third Prince has already sent people to the Jin Kingdom to search for the remedies. They should be brought back soon!"
"Finding the remedies is crucial, but it’s also necessary for the Imperial Court to promptly send sufficient medicine!" the doctor said.
"They will. With the benevolent Third Prince in the court, he will surely find a way to send the medicine..."
Before Zhao Sheng could finish, the sound of horns suddenly rang out from the direction of the South Gate.
A messenger rushed in through the rain, kneeled on one knee, and clasped his fists. "General! The Jin Army is attacking the pass!"
Zhao Sheng was shocked. The Jin Army had just retreated from the Qingxi Mountain Pass at noon today. Why are they attacking again suddenly?
Zhao Sheng hurried through the rain, grabbed the messenger by the collar, and asked, "Did the scout return with news of the whereabouts of the Princess of Zhen?"
"General, no, not yet!"
Zhao Sheng gritted his teeth, released the messenger, and rushed out of the courtyard. He leaped onto his horse and galloped towards the South Gate through the rain.
