The concubine enters the palace? The princess empties the palace and goes into exile with the baby

When Old Man Xu heard what Song Yao said, he didn't bother to eat anymore. He sat down and put his hand on her right wrist.

After a moment, Old Man Xu took his hand away and smiled gently, "Girl, the baby in your belly is safe and sound, you don't have to worry. However, you can't travel long distances while you're pregnant, otherwise..."

Song Yao put down his hand, looked at Old Man Xu and said, "Old sir, we are going to Fengzhou to stay with our relatives. We have to go this trip."

After hearing what Song Yao said, Old Man Xu said nothing more.

Song Yao said, "Old sir, I'm pregnant, my elderly grandparents are also in the group, and we have two children. It's really inconvenient without a doctor. Old sir, are you willing to come with us? As long as you come with us, don't worry, we won't let you starve."

When Old Man Xu, who was eating a cake, heard what Song Yao said, he stopped eating. He put the cake on the table and looked at Song Yao with an embarrassed look on his face. "Girl, I'm already over seventy years old. I really don't want to hold you back."

Old Man Xu sighed, "Besides, the reason I didn't go with them to escape the famine was because I thought if I died, I would die at home. If I went with you, wouldn't I die in a foreign land? Even if I died that way, I wouldn't be able to rest in peace."

"Old sir, if you die here, there will be no one to bury you, and you won't have any food. If you starve to death, wouldn't that be a tragic death? You've spent your life practicing medicine and saving lives. You don't want to end up like that, do you? If you follow me, I will ensure that you have food and clothing. If you ever pass away, I will bury you with my own hands and let you rest in peace."

Song Yao's words deeply shocked Old Man Xu.

Old Man Xu sat up straight, a solemn expression on his face. "Since you've said so, young lady, it would be a bit ungrateful for me to refuse! Okay, I'll go with you."

He is the only one left in this huge village. If he dies, there will be no one to collect his body.

So, he decided to go with Song Yao and the others.

After Old Man Xu took all the medicines in his home, he set fire to the old house.

The reason why he set fire to the old house was because he knew that he would never come back. Instead of letting the house wait for him empty-handed, it would be better to burn it down. Perhaps after his death, his soul could return home.

When they returned to the camp, it was already one o'clock in the morning.

Everyone had gone to bed, only four servants and Song Jing were on guard.

Song Yao walked to the sleeping servants, woke them up, handed them the medicine, and asked them to wipe the injured areas.

After giving them the medicine, Song Yao took Old Man Xu to the carriage where Feng Yingying was. She got on the carriage, woke Feng Yingying up, and asked about the child's condition.

Feng Yingying said she was still having a fever and even coughing.

Upon hearing this, Song Yao asked Old Man Xu to get into the carriage and take Song Dongdong's pulse.

After taking the patient's pulse, observing, smelling, and feeling the patient, he wrote a prescription and gave it to Song Yao.

Song Yao came to the mule cart where the medicine was placed and found several medicines written on the prescription inside.

She returned to the carriage, gave the medicine to Feng Yingying, and asked her to call Song Qian to boil the medicine.

Song Qian had already gone to bed at this time, so Feng Yingying asked Song Yao to help her look after the child while she went to boil the medicine.

When Song Yao heard what she said, she immediately refused, "We have come back from a long distance and are very tired. We have to travel tomorrow, so I can't help you look after the child. You should ask your husband to come."

After saying this, Song Yao asked Old Man Xu to get off the carriage and then arranged for him to rest in a temporary shed.

It was getting late, so Song Yao ignored Feng Yingying and the others and went straight into the carriage to sleep.

When she woke up again, it was already daybreak, but there was a crackling sound on the roof of the carriage, and the sound of rain hitting the carriage and falling on the ground could be heard all around the carriage.

At this time, only Su Zhen and Song Yao were left in the carriage.

Seeing Song Yao wake up, Su Zhen showed a kind smile on her face, "Ayao, you're awake. It rained in the middle of the night yesterday and it hasn't stopped yet. We can't travel any further. Why don't you get some more sleep?"

"How is Song Dongdong?" Song Yao asked.

"His fever has subsided and he even ate something." Su Zhen smiled.

"Ah."

Song Yao stood up, opened the car curtain, and saw heavy rain falling outside.

Because of the heavy rain, only the scene within a few feet on the right can be seen clearly. Everything in the distance is hazy and the entire sky is dark, like a curtain covered with a layer of gray fog.

The rain continued until the hour of Si.

They packed up and set off.

It had just rained heavily and the road was very muddy. The servants' feet were already rubbed and had not healed yet, so walking on the muddy ground was extremely difficult.

Because Song Qian had warned them, they didn't dare cry out in pain and just endured it. After three days, they finally arrived at Longxi City.

Song Zizhou and his men had finished eating the food they had purchased in the capital, and they had to replenish supplies in Longxi today.

There were too many people in their team. The sudden arrival of so many people from Longxi would definitely alert the government. In order not to cause unnecessary trouble, Song Yao asked Song Zizhou, Song Qing and Song Mingxuan to go with her.

Then I asked other people if they wanted to buy anything. If they did, they could go together, but no more than ten people could enter the city.

Feng Yingying was the first to raise her hand, "I'm going to buy something for Dongdong and the others."

Wu Zhilan said, "I want to go too."

Zhou Yunrong said: "I'll go too..."

Seeing that there were seven people going, Song Yao called two strong servants to follow them, then looked at Song Yuanbai and asked him to take them to the west gate of Longxi to wait.

After giving the order, Song Yao said, "You guys go to the west city gate first. After we finish shopping, I'll take you to the inn."

Everyone has worked hard these days, and Song Yao hasn't had a proper bath. Now that she has arrived in Longxi City, she naturally plans to have a good night's sleep and then take a proper bath.

They were all very happy when they heard that they were going to stay in an inn tonight.

Song Yuanbai said: "Ayao, then you guys go buy supplies first, don't worry about us."

"Okay, Dad." Song Yao nodded and took Song Mingxuan and others into Longxi City.

Longxi City was not affected by the refugees. The city was harmonious, filled with laughter and the cries of various vendors.

"Song Qing, go buy five tents." Song Yao took out two hundred taels of silver from her pocket and gave it to Song Qing. "You can decide what to buy with the remaining silver."

Song Yao then took out three hundred taels of silver and gave it to Song Zizhou. "Brother, take Chen Jie with you to buy three carriages, and then buy two more horses and a mule cart. When you're done, meet at the west city gate."

"Okay!" Song Zizhou agreed. He called Chen Jie and went with Song Qing to buy tents and carriages.

After they left, Song Yao took the others to resupply supplies.

Because she still had a lot of grain, flour and some vegetables in her space, she didn't buy too much food. She only bought a hundred buns, and then bought a total of five hundred pancakes from various houses.
