"I came to the border this time to do something, not for fame. If you really take it seriously, it will confirm your intention to gain a good reputation. No matter how you explain it, it will not be clear."
"Moreover, reputation is the most false and useless thing. Others are willing to think the best of you. No matter what you do, others will still think you are a good person. But if they deliberately think you have bad intentions, no matter how good you do, they will still think you have ulterior motives. We cannot control other people's thoughts. It is futile to pursue this matter now."
"As for what you said about looking down on others, that doesn't matter at all. I am your daughter, and whether people look down on me or not, I am still your daughter, Princess Ping'an, and the young lady of the He family."
Su Yujin said it easily, and even blinked at the end, causing Qingkui's anger to dissipate immediately, and she nodded repeatedly, "The girl is right."
"Yes, I just want to have a clear conscience. I do what I think is right. As for the rest, it has nothing to do with me." Su Yujin smiled and said, "Go clean these bandages and bring some medicine powder."
"Yes." Qingkui no longer cared about the whispers and disdain in those people's eyes, and just helped Su Yujin continue to work.
We were busy until dark, and settled all the wounded to rest.
Su Yujin went to check on Lu Yuncheng's condition again. Seeing that his pulse showed signs of improvement, she immediately breathed a sigh of relief and told the military doctor who was taking care of Lu Yuncheng to continue using the same prescription.
After coming out of Lu Yuncheng's room, Su Yujin saw Lu Wenjing fanning the medicine stove with a palm-leaf fan outside.
Obviously, Lu Wenjing had never done such work in her daily life. She didn't know how to control the strength of the palm-leaf fan and was panting. Moreover, the war was urgent at that time and the charcoal was being burned. The black smoke from the burning made Lu Wenjing cough.
"To simmer the medicine, you need to use a lower fire." Su Yujin reminded.
Lu Wenjing pondered for a while, and reduced the speed of the fan by half, "Is that so?"
"It's almost done." Su Yujin said, "Why don't you go inside and take care of it?"
It would be more conspicuous to show filial piety by the bedside than to boil medicine here.
"Forget about my father's temper." Lu Wenjing curled her lips, "I'm afraid if I go in to serve him, it will make his injuries worse. It's better for me to boil the medicine here."
It can be considered that she has fulfilled her filial duty as a daughter.
Every family has its own way of getting along with each other, so Su Yujin said no more words. She just opened the lid of the medicine jar and looked at the degree of boiling of the medicine. "It will take another half an hour."
"Yeah." Lu Wenjing nodded, "It's getting late, Sister Jin, go and have a rest."
Lu Wenjing knew that Su Yujin had been taking care of the wounded the whole afternoon. Seeing that she looked tired, she urged her on.
Seeing Lu Wenjing like this, Su Yujin did not refuse and went back to her room first.
He tidied up, washed, changed the clothes he wore when taking care of the wounded, soaked them in hot water mixed with disinfectant powder, and told Qingkui to wash them.
After finishing all this, He Yanxiu came back.
With starlight all over the body and a slight look of fatigue.
But his eyes were bright and there was no sign of sleepiness at all.
"Are you done with your work?" Su Yujin poured a cup of tea and handed it over.
The tea was warm and comfortable to drink. He Yanxiu drank it all in one gulp before saying, "I can't say I'm done with my work. I can only say I've just started."
Understanding the current battle situation, the strength of one's own and the enemy's forces, and studying the next countermeasures to be taken are indeed just preliminary preparations.
The real work has not yet begun.
It is indeed as He Yanxiu said, but it has just begun.
Su Yujin nodded. "I checked the conditions of the wounded here this afternoon. Most of them were ordinary sword and knife wounds, and there was nothing unusual. The military doctors and doctors here are also very experienced and capable of dealing with the situation here."
"So I thought, tomorrow I will go to those places where the epidemic has broken out to take a look and develop an antidote to treat the epidemic as soon as possible."
The purpose of Su Yujin's trip this time was to treat the epidemic, so it was understandable that she couldn't wait to check out the situation.
But he...
He Yanxiu paused, "Starting tomorrow, I will follow His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to check the troops everywhere, and even engage in battle with the enemy. Tomorrow I will send Shi Ding and Du Song to accompany you."
These two people are the most skilled and most trusted secret guards around He Yanxiu. Logically speaking, what He Yanxiu has to face is much more dangerous than her, so it is better for these two people to stay with him.
But Su Yujin knew that she was He Yanxiu's weak spot.
Only when there are enough people around her and her secret guards are strong enough, can He Yanxiu feel at ease and concentrate on doing more important things.
Su Yujin understood this, so she did not refuse and nodded in agreement, "Okay."
Tomorrow they will each be busy with their own things, so they both made some preparations and even explained things to each other.
Su Yujin gave He Yanxiu some commonly used wound medicines, poison-avoiding pills, and even some poisons and knockout drugs.
He Yanxiu gave Su Yujin a very sharp but small dagger that could be hidden in a boot, a sleeve arrow that could be tied to the wrist to launch hidden weapons, and a thunder bomb that could be used to escape at critical moments, for her to use for self-defense.
He Yanxiu even called Shi Ding and Du Song over and gave them detailed instructions.
"Master, rest assured. I will follow your instructions." Shi Ding and Du Song both responded.
"You two must obey Princess Ping'an's orders completely without any hesitation." He Yanxiu reminded again, "But you must also remember that no matter when and where, you must put Princess Ping'an's life first."
"Remember, no matter when."
Even if it requires weighing the lives of himself and even the crown prince, Princess Ping'an's life must be saved first.
He Yanxiu's tone was serious and his expression was solemn, both of which Shi Ding and Du Song had never seen before.
The two of them were extremely alert and responded more seriously.
After explaining everything, He Yanxiu felt a little relieved and went back to his room to rest.
At this time, Su Yujin was already fast asleep, with steady breathing and a calm expression.
He Yanxiu kissed her on the forehead, then lay down beside her, hugged her and closed his eyes.
The next day, everyone got up early.
After a simple breakfast of steamed buns and rice porridge, Su Yujin and He Yanxiu packed up and left the room.
They had already arranged their respective itineraries last night, and the two didn't talk much at this time. They just looked at each other and nodded slightly at each other.
