After traveling through time, I became a thorn in the eyes of the sickly prince

"It's not tiring at all. I feel such a sense of accomplishment!!!" Mu Xi scooped out another large piece of meat and handed it to Prince Duan, "Your Highness, have another bite of meat!" He looked expectantly.

"No more eating. I still have five sheep bones to pick!!!" Big Palm grabbed the knife and started picking again. This little woman thought of herself first when there was something delicious. It seems that his efforts were not in vain.

Mu Xi didn't know what Prince Duan was thinking. He took a bite of the meat and immediately showed a satisfied expression, "It's so delicious, the meat is tender and juicy. We will eat canned meat from now on."

In this way, An Muxi and Prince Duan were busy in the small courtyard for four days, and finally made 500 jars of canned mutton, 200 jars of pickled beef and 100 jars of spicy beef sauce.

Even the root vegetables stolen from the Tianqi Kingdom’s military camp were cut into wide strips and made into two hundred jars of pickles.

All the sheep and cow bones were collected back into the space to be used for making soup later. Otherwise, if they were thrown on the roadside, it would scare people to death and might even send them to jail.

On the sixth day, the two of them cleaned the house inside and out, took a hot bath, changed into new clothes, and only then did they feel that the smell of mutton was gone.

Prince Duan took Muxi out of the yard and went to the Jixiang Medical Clinic. They couldn't stay at home all the time.

Mu Xi was wearing a navy blue robe, a black hat on his head, and fair cheeks, looking like a pretty boy.

Murong Yue was wearing a blue robe and the same hat as Mu Xi.

The two walked past rows of loess houses and came to the main street.

The shops in this abandoned city street don't look prosperous, but there are shops selling grain, clothes, farm tools and wine. The common people here have one thing in common, that is, they are thin. Although they are not skinny, they look unhealthy. It's called an abandoned city, how can the people here be good?

After walking for a long time, we didn't see a pharmacy. No wonder the official said that what Yazhou lacked was doctors.

Suddenly, a group of refugees came running over like a swarm of locusts. The shop owners were all terrified and started moving things into their shops and locking the doors.

Mu Xi couldn't help but sigh, "Your Majesty, don't the officials here open the warehouses to release grain and provide relief to the victims?"

Prince Duan glanced at the refugees and pulled Mu Xi to his side. "He needs to have food to put. Today, many places have no harvest. Daxia has been at war for many years, and the treasury has long been empty. The little food distributed by the court is not enough for corrupt officials to put their money in their pockets!"

“Alas, it is the common people who suffer!”

The most expensive thing in this era is not human life, but food. If there is no food, the eldest brother will be hung on the gate of the Tiger Village. An Muxi is very glad that he has a space.

"Look everyone, there's a food store!" A refugee seemed excited as if he had discovered a new world.

When the refugees heard this, their eyes immediately lit up green and they all ran over in a huge crowd.

Some picked up a big stone to break down the door, some used sharp weapons to break down the windows. In short, these refugees used all their strength and finally moved all the food in the shop. The owner of the grain shop sat on the ground and wailed.

"There's a teahouse over there, let's go have some tea!" The refugee wave once again swept through the teahouse, and soon the howling of the teahouse owner was heard.

“There’s also a clothing store there!!!”

In this way, wherever the refugees went, it was like a swarm of locusts, leaving no grass behind.

Look, this is human nature. You feel sorry for him and think he has bad character, but this is also helpless! Who would be willing to be a robber if they have enough food and drink every day? Besides, they will starve to death anyway, so what is the use of noble sentiments!!!

A woman with disheveled hair and half-undressed clothes came out of the alley holding two steamed buns. Her eyes were filled with tears and she murmured in a trembling voice:

"Fortunately, it wasn't the steamed buns that were snatched. These are the daily rations for my family of three!!!"

Another woman with loose hair chased out from the opposite alley.

"Damn it, he insisted on eating my two steamed buns. Those were food for my child. I said I wanted to give my body to him, but he didn't agree! Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah." His heartbroken expression felt like a thousand arrows piercing his heart, digging out his bones and cutting his flesh.

By the time the police arrived, half the shops on the street had been destroyed.

Mu Xi was dragged by Prince Duan and walked for a long time before arriving at the Jixiang Medical Clinic.

The Jixiang Medical Clinic is located at a crossroads. It consists of three small earthen houses, with a large pile of chopped wood and branches on the west side.

You can vaguely hear the sound of rocks being smashed in the distance. Without looking, you know that this place is close to a mine. The convicts in TV dramas all smash rocks and dig coal.

Looking at the people walking back and forth on the streets, most of them are prisoners. Although they are not wearing shackles, they all have tattoos on their faces.

When I walked into the Jixiang Medical Clinic, I found a large medicine shelf on the back wall. The small boxes on the shelf were more than half opened. A woman was writing something on the counter. Her gray skin made her look very old.

There was a stove in the middle of the room, and the fire was burning very brightly.

Hearing the noise, the woman raised her head and looked at the two people who walked in. There was not much expression on her face. There was a big word "prisoner" on her cheekbone, which looked very abrupt.

"Would you two like to buy some medicine?"

Mu Xi took out the official document from his arms and placed it on the counter, "I am the doctor that the official wants to see here!"

The woman glanced at the words on the document, and finally a smile appeared on her face. "The government has finally sent a doctor. You don't know, every time someone comes to see a doctor, I don't know how to prescribe medicine. Every time I just rely on the prescription left by Doctor Cui to prescribe medicine for the patient."

"Where's Doctor Cui?"

"died!"

"Hurry, hurry and sit down!" The woman walked out of the counter quickly and motioned for Mu Xi to sit on the chair. "Little brother, my name is Yunxiang, I'm 36 years old, I can read a few words, and I was sent here by the government to study medicine, but not long after, Doctor Cui died."

Mu Xi smiled and said, "My name is An Xin. I am younger than my sister and also a girl. I wear men's clothes for safety!"

Yunxiang widened her eyes, carefully looking at Muxi's fair and moist face, and said enviously,

"Look at this girl's face, it's so tender that you can squeeze water out of it. She's obviously much younger than me!" Yunxiang touched her face and shook her head.

Mu Xi also looked at Yunxiang's face and was shocked. How long had she not had enough food to make her look so old?

Feeling the surprise in Mu Xi's eyes, Yun Xiang felt a little embarrassed. "Our Jixiang Pharmacy mainly treats prisoners in the mines. You know, they don't have much money. Sometimes I have to pay for some herbs. The government only gives them a symbolic amount of herbs every month. So, there is no money to be made, and it is common for them to go hungry."

"Since you are not making any money, why are you still struggling?"

"Although this clinic is not doing well, it is indeed the hope of these men in the mines. They come to see me every noon. When I eat too much, I give them food. My men also work down there. They are suffering too much. The reason why it is called the Auspicious Clinic is that we hope that everyone who comes to see the clinic will turn misfortune into fortune and have good luck and happiness."

"Don't worry, sister will have enough to eat in the future!"

Yunxiang naturally didn't believe this, but she still smiled politely as a way of expressing her gratitude.
