Gu Yuzhi blinked, looking completely innocent, and said, "It's nothing!"

He nodded and said definitively, "I didn't say anything. Judge Qin, you must have misheard!"

Judge Qin lowered his eyes and remained silent. Only after stepping forward did he notice that some more blood had seeped from the wound on the young prince's leg, and he immediately understood.

He shook his head slightly and said, "Your Highness, it is summer now, and the weather is especially hot in the Jiangnan region. If Your Highness is not careful, the wound may become infected..."

Judge Qin's face darkened, and his tone became extremely serious: "Then you'll have to use a small knife to cut away the rotten flesh bit by bit. If it's severe, you might even scrape the bone..."

Judge Qin's voice was actually very soft, but to Gu Yuzhi, it sounded like a thunderclap, making his face grow paler and paler.

You have to cut the meat away little by little, and there's a good chance you'll scrape the bone!

Just hearing what Judge Qin said was terrifying for Gu Yuzhi, not to mention the thought that he might suffer the same fate in the future because of his carelessness...

He pouted and said in a tearful voice, "I promise I will obey, Judge Qin, please don't scrape my bones!"

Seeing that he had frightened Gu Yuzhi, Imperial Physician Qin's expression softened considerably: "In the next few days, Your Highness should rest and recuperate properly, and it's best not to practice martial arts anymore. After the wound has scabbed over, Your Highness can gradually increase the intensity of your martial arts movements."

Gu Yuzhi nodded obediently, as if his flesh would rot if he nodded even slightly slower.

He lay stiffly on the bed, the torn wounds burning with pain, but the places where Judge Qin had applied medicine not only quickly relieved the pain, but also felt cool and comfortable.

Gu Yuzhi said softly, "Court Physician Qin, I want to contact my brother the Emperor and ask him to urgently train some military doctors and send them over before the war in the northern desert breaks out."

He puffed out his cheeks and said, "Mr. Huo said that the training of military doctors is relatively simple. As long as they can recognize some medicinal materials for external injuries, and know how to do simple bandaging, bone setting and hemostasis, that's enough."

Anyway, the soldiers treated on the battlefield are all lightly wounded, so they don't need to have too many skills.

Afraid of aggravating his wound, Gu Yuzhi carefully tilted his head and asked, "President Qin, do you think there's any way to help these military doctors learn more advanced medical skills?"

Qin, the court physician, paused slightly while bandaging the wound, but then resumed his normal actions: "What Your Highness is thinking about may not be so easy."

Gu Yuzhi looked bewildered: "Why?"

Judge Qin smiled slightly, "Because military doctors don't require high levels of skill, anyone who wants to study medicine will want to improve their medical skills. No one wants to stay on the battlefield and watch those bloody scenes."

Military doctors receive military pay, but compared to making money by opening their own clinics, what is that little bit of military pay?

Moreover, it's not safe.

Seeing Gu Yuzhi staring at him with wide eyes, Qin Yuanpan continued, "So the military doctors that Your Highness knows are generally people who have no talent and no future prospects."

Training military doctors is simple, but training more military doctors, as Your Highness says, is impossible.

Gu Yuzhi didn't expect that his idea would be rejected by the court judge as soon as he put it out.

He was utterly dejected, and his whole being screamed "I'm unhappy."

After humming and hawing for a while, his ears twitched slightly: "Judge Qin, is the war at Dongzhimen over?"

Imperial Physician Qin was slightly taken aback, and finished bandaging the last wound: "Your Highness can still hear?"

The Qi residence is located in the center of Huizhou, and it is very far from the East and West Gates. Moreover, this war was small-scale. The enemy did not attack the city, nor did they use catapults. How did Your Highness know that the war was over?

Gu Yuzhi shook his head: "I don't know, I just feel like it's over."

At this point, Gu Yuzhi covered his mouth and yawned.

Once the pain from the wound subsided, a sudden wave of drowsiness washed over him.

Seeing him like this, Judge Qin was about to get up and trim the candle wick when he realized that the young prince was pulling on his sleeve.

Gu Yuzhi's eyes were watery because he had yawned.

He looked at Judge Qin with pitiful eyes: "But I still want to try."

Judge Qin didn't react for a moment: "Try what?"

Gu Yuzhi replied matter-of-factly, "Of course we should try to have my elder brother train more military doctors!"

He pursed his lips and thought for a moment: "Moreover, this time I want my brother to arrange for them to learn more medical skills, not just simple bandaging."

Gu Yuzhi looked at Judge Qin: "I heard from Mr. Huo that seriously wounded soldiers do not receive medical treatment on the battlefield."

They were carried off the battlefield by civilians, some groaning in pain as they awaited final treatment, others numbly awaiting death, knowing their injuries were severe.

Gu Yuzhi's voice lowered considerably: "Mr. Huo said that when he first went to the military doctor's tent, he was startled and recognized familiar faces inside. He cried and asked his father why no doctor had been sent to treat him..."

Judge Qin's expression also turned ugly, his eyes lowered as if he were lost in thought.

"His father didn't say anything, but people he knew comforted him, saying that's how war is, and that Mr. Huo shouldn't be sad."

Gu Yuzhi looked at Judge Qin: "Mr. Huo said that he was also very sad at the time. In the subsequent battles, he would try to get the military doctors to treat these seriously wounded soldiers. But after these battles, he became like his father."

These were all soldiers he had trained. He felt a heavier burden in his heart than anyone else, but he had no other choice but to bear it all himself.

Gu Yuzhi's voice grew softer and softer. He always felt that the more he knew, the more he admired Mr. Huo, and the more he felt sorry for him.

"What Mr. Huo couldn't accomplish, I want to try my best to do. After all, I can ask my elder brother, the Emperor!"

It doesn't matter if these people are unwilling; let the Emperor give the order.

With the Emperor's order, the chances of this succeeding will be much greater!

Judge Qin looked at Gu Yuzhi's small face.

Because he had lost a lot of weight, his eyes appeared exceptionally large.

In addition to not getting enough rest during this period and being injured, his face was very pale, his lips were cracked, and blood would seep from his lips if he made even the slightest movement.

Despite being a member of the royal family, he has found himself in such a wretched situation.

Even so, he still cared deeply about the soldiers on the front lines and wanted to do everything in his power to help more soldiers survive.

At this moment, all of Qin Yuanpan's previous convictions crumbled.

Things he had never thought of before suddenly came to mind at this moment.

And as soon as this thought came to mind, Judge Qin felt much more relaxed.

He looked at Gu Yuzhi and said solemnly, word by word, "Your Highness, I have an idea about this matter..."
