Chapter 395. Zhao Yichen helped a lot

"Um,"

Shen Qingqian nodded and said, "The information that Brother Han and I know is from two days ago. I don't know if there are any new things happening in the past two days. We really need to go back and make a long-term plan."

Zhao Yifeng cursed: "King Xiaoyao, this turtle bastard, is simply a wolf with ambitions!"

Then he said with a worried look on his face: "I don't know how Father, Mother, and Mother are doing?"

Han Qingshan said with some shame: "It is all my fault that I failed to protect the emperor and the masters. Instead, I was the first to be injured and fell. Your Highness Prince Chen, Sixth Prince, I will return to the capital with the two of you today."

At this time, the educated youth came in with two bowls of noodles.

"Your Majesty, Sixth Prince, please eat something first!"

Zhao Yichen took the bowl, looked at the educated youth and said, "The people we brought with us didn't have much to eat along the way. Educated youth, why don't you send some food to them as well!"

"Don't worry, Your Highness. I have already sent it over."

When Zhao Yichen spoke to the educated youth, he still used the tone of a master instructing a servant, and when the educated youth answered, he was respectful and distant, exactly the way one should treat a guest.

When Zhao Yichen and Zhao Yifeng were eating noodles, everyone naturally stopped talking and no one spoke anymore.

"Girl, can I come in?"

There was a knock at the door.

Shen Qingqian recognized Xiaoyu's voice and said, "Come in!"

Xiaoyu pushed the door open and walked in. She bowed to the others first, then said anxiously, "Miss, it's bad. Four people have died from poison arrows."

Shen Qingqian closed her eyes weakly. She knew that some of the people with serious arrow wounds had already come to the end of their lives.

"Take me over there to have a look!"

Shen Qingqian motioned for the educated youth to come over and help her.

Zhao Yifeng raised his head and asked, "Qingqian, what is she talking about?"

Although Zhao Yichen and Zhao Yifeng had heard about King Xiaoyao's provocation today, and knew that King Xiaoyao's men had ultimately returned in defeat, they naturally did not know the specific details.

Shen Qingqian had no need to hide anything, so she answered truthfully: "I have more than a hundred people who have been poisoned by arrows, but there is no antidote, so the poison has already begun to take effect, and they will die one after another."

Shen Qingqian spoke in a calm voice, but one could feel her sadness at the moment.

Zhao Yifeng knew that Shen Qingqian was a man of love and justice, who valued the lives of every one of his people. However, he could not help with this matter, so he could only comfort her: "Qingqian, there will be casualties in wars, this is inevitable. Just do your best in everything, and don't take it too seriously."

Shen Qingqian knew that what Zhao Yifeng said was right. She was indeed powerless in this matter, and it was useless to be sad. So, she tried to speak in a calm tone: "Okay, I understand. I will just go over to see everyone and send them off for the last time."

Zhao Yichen seemed to be thinking about something. Just when Shen Qingqian was about to walk out of the door, he called her.

"Qingqian!"

Shen Qingqian paused, turned around and looked at him and asked, "What's the matter?"

Zhao Yichen stood up, came to her side, and said seriously: "I know that kind of poison arrow. I have fought with King Xiaoyao and saw them use that kind of arrow. I also know that before King Xiaoyao goes to war, as long as he brings that kind of poison arrow, he will ask everyone to prepare an antidote to avoid accidentally hurting his own people and being unable to save the situation.

So you could have people search the bodies of the dead to see if they have the antidote."

Zhao Yichen's words were like a stream of clear water in the desert, bringing a glimmer of hope to Shen Qingqian's heart.

"Zhao Yichen, is what you said true?"

Shen Qingqian hadn't called Zhao Yichen by his name for a long time, and she was too excited at this moment.

Without waiting for Zhao Yichen to answer, she spoke again: "Thank you so much, Zhao Yichen, I will tell someone to hurry up and get back to you."

"Wait a moment!"

Zhao Yichen said: "Qingqian, don't get excited, I haven't finished yet!"

Shen Qingqian also realized that she was a little too anxious, and said: "I am a little excited, you talk, I listen."

Zhao Yichen was very happy to do something for Shen Qingqian, but he was also afraid that if things went wrong, Shen Qingqian would be disappointed. So he said cautiously: "Qingqian, I can't guarantee that they will bring the antidote this time like before. You can have someone check their collars. I accidentally discovered before that their antidote is hidden in their collars, probably for easy taking."

"Okay, I understand. Zhao Yichen, thank you for providing me with such important information. Regardless of whether we can find the antidote in the end, I thank you."

Shen Qingqian was really grateful to Zhao Yichen this time. If Xiaoyao Wang's men didn't bring the antidote with them this time, maybe this would be their fate. She had tried her best, and although she had regrets, she also let it go.

However, God still favored her, or rather favored those who were poisoned. What Zhao Yichen said was absolutely correct. Xiaoyao Wang's men really did hide the antidote, and they did hide it in their collars.

If Zhao Yichen hadn't told her, how could she find her people? I'm afraid the antidote would eventually be burned along with those people.

With the antidote, the poisoned people can naturally be saved, and Shen Qingqian won't have to watch them lose their lives.

In order to thank Zhao Yichen, Shen Qingqian gave them eight grenades before they left.

"If you want to attack a city, this will definitely help you get twice the result with half the effort."

After Shen Qingqian explained how to use the grenade, he added another sentence.

In fact, Zhao Yichen wanted to ask Shen Qingqian about the musket, but he didn't ask in the end.

Firstly, he was in a hurry to return to the capital, and some things could not be explained clearly in a few words; secondly, he was afraid that Shen Qingqian would misunderstand and think that he wanted to take her gun just because he helped a little.

Zhao Yichen, Zhao Yifeng and Han Qingshan said goodbye to Shen Qingqian and headed towards the capital.

After they left, Shen Qingqian called the educated youth Zhizhu, Yingzi and her grandfather into the house.

Shen Qingqian didn't waste any more time and gave the order directly.

"Yingzi, take a few people with you and send the villagers back. The village should be safe now."

She looked at Yingzi's grandfather again and said respectfully, "Grandpa Sun, the matter of dealing with the bodies in the forest will still be left to you.

Bring some more people with you to deal with it as soon as possible, otherwise in this hot summer, if the corpses are left for too long, it will be easy for epidemics to occur."

Old Man Sun said, "Don't worry, little girl. I will definitely take care of this matter."

"Well, thank you, Grandpa Sun."

Old Man Sun left first. Shen Qingqian then said to Zhiqing and Zhizhu, "Tell them to stop making guns in the next two days. Everyone should hurry up and make grenades."

The educated youth asked, "Miss, do you have any plans?"

Shen Qingqian nodded, "Yes, we will also go to the capital in three days."
