Rebirth: The Journey of an Heiress novel Chapter 1216

Chapter 1216: Chapter 1210: An Outsider Man

Watching as the military doctor had already entered, Wei Zhong was quite anxious and whispered to her, "Your Majesty!"

"Your Majesty..." The military doctor entered, standing behind the screen to pay respects.

Bai Qingyan held Xiao Rongyan’s hand, glanced at Xiao Rongyan’s festering wound, and turned her head to speak in a hoarse voice, "Come in!"

The military doctor came in with a medicine box, saw Bai Qingyan sitting on the footstool of yellow pear wood by the bedside, and was momentarily stunned, then hurried over, "Your Majesty... could you please move aside, I need to take the Ninth Prince’s pulse."

Bai Qingyan tried hard but couldn’t pull her hand away, looked at the military doctor and asked, "Can you take the pulse like this?"

The military doctor hastily replied, "How about I first treat the Ninth Prince’s wound?"

Bai Qingyan nodded.

The military doctor opened the medicine box, and Wei Zhong helped out from the side.

She watched as the military doctor cut open the fine cotton cloth originally wrapped around Xiao Rongyan’s waist, then heated the knife and slowly scraped off the necrotic flesh from Xiao Rongyan’s body.

Xiao Rongyan, deep in sleep, was in so much pain that his whole body was covered with sweat, gripping Bai Qingyan’s hand tightly, and she also held Xiao Rongyan’s hand firmly.

After cleaning the wound in the front, the military doctor applied medicine and said to Wei Zhong, "Please help the Ninth Prince turn over, the wound is penetrating, and it must have festered at the back as well. We need to remove the necrotic flesh!"

Wei Zhong stepped up at her words, but Xiao Rongyan held Bai Qingyan’s hand tightly without loosening even a bit, and the military doctor also looked towards Bai Qingyan whose hand was clutched by Xiao Rongyan, "Your Majesty..."

"Let me!" Bai Qingyan, still in armor, stepped over Xiao Rongyan and turned him onto his side.

Just as the military doctor said, Xiao Rongyan’s wound was a penetrating one, festering at the back as well, looking horrifyingly terrible.

Bai Qingyan looked at Xiao Rongyan, his mask slipping off his face, not knowing how he managed to lead the troops to rescue her. Thinking about how Xiao Rongyan fainted just before, asking if she had ever thought of him, even a little bit, her eyes were once again hit by a surge of sour warmth.

After the military doctor treated the wound on Xiao Rongyan’s back and bandaged him with Wei Zhong’s help, Wei Zhong then sent the military doctor out, instructing in a low voice, "Doctor Hong allowing you to accompany Her Majesty back to Dadu City proves your medical skills and character are trustworthy, so you’re considered one of Doctor Hong’s disciples, and thus part of the Bai family army. So matters not to be discussed... must not be spoken outside."

After saying this, Wei Zhong laughed warmly and saluted the military doctor, saying, "I know saying this is redundant, an old habit of nagging, please overlook it!"

The military doctor waved her hand repeatedly, "Eunuch Wei, you’re too polite! Even if I weren’t from the Bai family army, I am one of Zhou’s people! The Ninth Prince was injured while leading forces to rescue Jiangzi City. Her Majesty trusted me to treat the Ninth Prince, which is only proper! I will personally prepare the Ninth Prince’s medicine, and bring it over once it’s ready."

Hearing the military doctor say this, Wei Zhong knew... the military doctor would only say as much to the outside, nodded with relief, and escorted her out of the courtyard.

The hot water in the small kitchen was already boiled, and when Chun Zhi saw Wei Zhong return, she asked if the hot water should be sent in. Wei Zhong thought for a moment and personally mixed the hot water to a comfortable temperature and carried it in, "Your Majesty, the hot water is here, this old servant will help the Ninth Prince clean his body and change his clothes!"
