Chapter 50: The drama of deep affection between the monarch and his subjects
After traveling through time for so long, this is the first time I feel hurt.
"Lord Song!" Jiang Rumin's exclamation came from behind.
Bai Zhu finally opened his eyes, but the scene in front of him was blurry. He couldn't see Song Yunchu's condition clearly, but he smelled blood in the air. His face changed immediately, "Sir, are you injured?"
"It's okay, just a superficial wound, nothing serious."
Song Yunchu was groaning in his heart, but he couldn't show his anger. He could only pretend to be calm and said, "This villain has been subdued by me. You don't need to worry."
"I deserve to die!" Bai Zhu knelt on one knee, "If you hadn't saved me, you wouldn't have been injured."
"Okay, okay, get up." Song Yunchu wanted to help him, but his shoulders hurt so much that he was too lazy to bend down.
Seeing that Bai Zhu's eyes were red and lifeless, she asked him, "Are your eyes... okay?"
"Just now the assassin sprinkled a handful of powder on my face. It hurts a little now and I can't see clearly. I am incompetent." Bai Zhu still blamed himself.
"You have tried your best. There are always people who are better than you. It is not your fault that you ran into an assassin who is slightly better than you."
In fact, to put it bluntly, she was careless for a moment, thinking that she would be done with it if she could just knock the assassin down. She let down her guard a little at that moment. Fortunately, her muscle memory allowed her to react to danger the moment she noticed it. Otherwise, the dagger would not only have cut her shoulder, but would have stabbed directly into the flesh.
"It's my fault." Jiang Rumin had already walked over, looking apologetic. "If I hadn't left the table and attracted the assassin, Bai Zhu wouldn't have been attacked, and Lord Song wouldn't have been injured trying to save Bai Zhu. If Lord Song wants to punish someone, punish me."
"Alright, stop trying to admit your mistake now. Go check Bai Zhu's eyes to see if there's anything wrong with them."
Jiang Rumin squatted down and felt Bai Zhu's pulse, then opened his eyelids and took a closer look, saying, "Fortunately, there is no sign of poisoning. This powder should only stimulate the pupils and cause temporary blindness. It is used to hinder the enemy in an emergency to ensure that you can escape."
As she spoke, she took out a pill from the medicine bottle she carried with her and gave it to Bai Zhu to take for temporary pain relief.
"Sir Song, I should be able to cure Bai Zhu's eyes, but I have limited medicinal materials on me. I'm afraid we have to borrow the territory of the Imperial Hospital to use them. The wound on your shoulder must be bandaged as soon as possible."
"This is not difficult." Song Yunchu said, "His eyesight cannot be delayed. Let's go to the Imperial Hospital now and don't waste time going back to the banquet."
Jiang Rumin was stunned. "Aren't you going to report this to His Majesty?"
"Of course I have to report it, but I can't alert the people at the banquet. If too many people know about it...how are you going to explain why you left the banquet?"
"I..." Jiang Rumin lowered his head in shame.
"I will have someone tell His Majesty privately. Tonight's banquet is to celebrate the marriage between the two countries, and we cannot let the assassin's incident affect everyone's interest. So even if His Majesty knows about it, he will not make it public. As for the assassin, he can't move anymore. I will ask the guards to take him away later."
Song Yunchu said, and asked Bai Zhu: "Can you walk by yourself?"
Her shoulder hurt so much that she couldn't help anyone, and Jiang Rumin and Bai Zhu had their own rules about men and women.
"I can do that." Bai Zhu said, "I will follow your footsteps."
"Okay, let's go."
The three of them bypassed the banquet and headed towards the Imperial Hospital. During the trip, they met a patrolling guard, and Song Yunchu asked him to report the assassin to the emperor and drag the assassin away.
When the three men arrived at the Imperial Hospital, they startled an imperial physician who was sorting medicinal materials.
"Master Song, what's wrong with your injury?"
Song Yunchu naturally didn't need to explain to him, he just said: "Are there any empty rooms? Arrange two for us. My subordinate's eyes need immediate treatment. I would like to trouble Doctor Liu to assist Miss Jiang."
Doctor Liu quickly agreed. He originally wanted to ask someone to treat Song Yunchu's injuries, but Song Yunchu refused and went into the room and closed the door.
She didn't dare move her right arm and could only apply medicine with her left hand, which was really troublesome.
But she could only overcome it, because she was a woman disguised as a man, and the injury was on her shoulder. She had to take off her shirt to treat the wound, and this was something she absolutely could not leave to the imperial physician.
Just as she was about to take off her coat, she heard the footsteps of several people outside the house.
The next moment, there was a knock on the door of the house, "Sir Song, is your injury serious? His Majesty is here to see you."
Song Yunchu twitched the corner of his lips slightly.
How come Jun Liluo came so quickly?
But think about it, she was injured, Bai Zhu was blind, the three of them were slow, and the guards reported to the emperor quickly.
Jun Liluo actually left his seat to visit her as soon as he learned that she was injured?
The drama of the deep affection between the monarch and his subjects was performed very well.
At the same time, Jun Liluo heard Song Yunchu's complaints through the door and couldn't help but narrow his eyes.
He rushed here immediately, clearly out of concern, wanting to see how serious Song Yunchu's injuries were, but Song Yunchu thought he was just acting.
You really don't know how to appreciate a good person.
He did have many fears and suspicions about the former Song Yunchu, but for the current Song Yunchu, he wanted to cultivate him into his true confidant.
"Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty. I only have superficial injuries, nothing serious. Please forgive me for not being able to go out to greet you."
Hearing Song Yunchu's answer, Jun Liluo stepped forward and said, "Just now, Imperial Doctor Liu said that you refused to let others treat your wound. Why is that? Your wound is on your right shoulder. Can you treat it well by yourself?"
"Your Majesty, please go sit down first. I will get back to you after I have dealt with it myself." Song Yunchu replied.
[Dog Emperor, please leave now and stop causing trouble for me. ]
[Why did you have to come so soon? I can handle it if you come later.]
[That Imperial Doctor Liu is such a chatterbox. I don't want them to bandage my wound, so what? He even has to tell the Emperor this.]
Outside the door, Jun Li Luo was a little annoyed, but more confused.
Regardless of whether he came to visit Song Yunchu sincerely or not, as the king of a country, he came personally to comfort his subjects. It would be fine if the other party was not grateful to him, but why did he still blame him for being nosy in his heart?
How did he cause trouble for Song Yunchu? There was nothing wrong with Doctor Liu wanting to bandage Song Yunchu, so why was he unhappy?
This guy is simply incomprehensible.
Could it be that he has some hidden illness and is afraid of others finding out?
Song Yunchu didn't seem to mention that he had a hidden illness, but if he was in good health, why would he reject contact with the imperial physician?
Jun Li Luo became even more curious.
"I'm a little worried because I haven't seen your injuries with my own eyes." Jun Liluo said in a deep voice, "Open the door and let me take a look."
Song Yunchu: “…”
[You dog emperor, you are pretending to be considerate to your subjects again. I said it was just a superficial wound, but you still insisted that I open the door for you to see. What the hell is wrong with you? ]
"Yun Chu, didn't you hear me? Open the door." Jun Li Luo spoke again, and his tone seemed to brook no refusal.
