Chapter 641: Saving Wushan Slave
"Under the supervision of the Marquis of Pingyang, I believe the young marquis will become a good person."
"Of course!" Lu An nodded repeatedly in assurance, and added, "I've prepared a small gift, including the Wushan slave. I hope Madam Wu will accept it."
"I have received the Marquis' kindness, so there is no need for such a small gift." Tang Li said.
"Madam Wu, you'd better accept it. If you don't, I won't be at peace."
After much discussion, the two finally reached an agreement. The other gifts were taken back, and Tangli accepted Wushan Slave.
After apologizing, Lu An said he would not disturb them any further and left with Lu Xuan.
As the two were passing through a corridor, they happened to meet a young girl walking towards them.
The person who came was Sanbao. When he saw Lu Xuan, his eyes widened in surprise.
Why is this bad guy in her house? !
Lu Xuan looked at her with a smile, and stopped when he passed by her.
"Sister..." He called out with a smile. Seeing his father take a few steps forward, he lowered his voice and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear, "Little girl, be careful. Don't fall into my hands."
The voice was so vicious, as if the man wanted to skin and bone him alive, and Sanbao felt cold all over when he heard it.
Sanbao suddenly jumped back a few steps and stared at him warily.
Lu Xuan's expression changed in an instant, and a gentle smile appeared on his pale face: "Sister often comes to Pingyang Marquis Mansion to play."
San Bao completely ignored him and walked quickly towards the living room. Seeing Tang Li, he went up to her and took her arm: "Mother, why is that bad... young marquis here?"
"Marquis Pingyang brought him here to apologize." Tang Li said.
"He can't possibly admit his mistake, Mom. He just threatened me." Sanbao complained.
Tang Li's expression suddenly turned serious: "What did he say?"
Sanbao repeated what Lu Xuan had just said to her.
Tangli's brows furrowed even more tightly.
This Lu Xuan is really a dangerous factor. When I think about the possibility that he might threaten the safety of Sanbao, I want to destroy him humanely.
Tang Li took a deep breath and suppressed his anger.
That Lu Xuan is a little pervert, so we have to let the secret guards follow Sanbao to ensure her safety.
"Let's go." Tangli said.
"Mom, where are you going?"
"Go and see that Wushan slave."
"Wushan slave?!" Sanbao's heart ached when he thought of the poor slave.
She had dreamed of the Wushan slave yesterday. She dreamed that he was lying in a pool of blood, his eyes full of despair, and he stretched out his hand, asking her for help.
"He's in the mansion?!"
"Yes, the Pingyang Marquis' Mansion sent him here as an apology." Tang Li said.
"Then let's go see him!"
Sanbao couldn't help but quicken his pace, pulling Tangli along and walking quickly.
Tangli had already asked his servants to place Wushan Nu in the guest room.
When the two men pushed the door open and went in, they smelled a bloody smell mixed with the smell of decay.
When Tang Li saw the person lying on the bed, he was shocked.
The Wushan slave was no more than fifteen or sixteen years old. His features were more profound than those of the Zhou people, and he was well-built, with a broad back and taller than the Zhou people. He wore clean clothes, which must have been washed and changed into new ones. Even if washed, the smell of blood and decay could not be concealed, indicating how serious his wounds were.
His face was extremely pale, his eyes were tightly closed, and his chest seemed to be motionless, like a dead person...
"Mother..." Sanbao's face was pale and he clutched Tangli's arm tightly, obviously having the same idea as her.
The dream from last night kept echoing in her mind. Was it too late?
Tangli reached out to feel his breath...
Tang Li breathed a sigh of relief: "He's still alive, the doctor will be here soon."
Sanbao also breathed a sigh of relief, fortunately he was still alive.
After a while, there was a knock on the door.
I saw the doctor standing at the door with a medicine box on his back.
"Doctor Zhang, please come in." Tang Li said hurriedly.
The doctor came in and took his pulse, but it was too weak...
The doctor frowned tightly, then took off the patient's clothes to check his injuries.
When the buttons were unbuttoned and the clothes were lifted up, the doctor gasped.
He is a doctor and has been practicing medicine for 30 years. He has seen all kinds of patients, but he has never seen one as tragic as this one.
The patient's body was covered with scars of varying depths, new wounds mixed with old ones. Those wounds had probably never been treated. Some of the wounds had already rotted away, leaving almost no healthy flesh.
It's a miracle that this man is still alive.
Tang Li covered Sanbao's eyes, not wanting her to see this cruel scene. Tang Li's face looked extremely ugly, and he cursed "little beast" in his heart.
"Mom, let me see him." Sanbao said.
When Tangli heard Sanbao's firm tone, he knew that the little girl was brave and strong, so he let go of her hand.
When Sanbao saw his injuries, his expression suddenly changed and his little face turned red with anger.
"I'm going to take it back!"
As Sanbao said this, he walked towards the door angrily and was stopped by Tangli.
"Sanbao, don't be impulsive! Think long and hard!"
"Mom will definitely help him get over this, don't worry!" Tangli grabbed Sanbao's hand tightly.
Sanbao took two deep breaths to calm himself down and nodded.
Sanbao looked at the doctor and begged, "Uncle doctor, please save him!"
"Don't worry, young lady. I will do my best." The doctor said, looking at Tang Li, "Madam, all the rotten flesh on the patient's body must be scraped off, otherwise he will not recover. You need to find a few people to help me, and prepare some medicine..."
Tang Li quickly called a few servants and asked them to arrange what the doctor wanted.
The next step was to scrape off the rotten flesh. After all, there were differences between men and women, and the scene was too bloody, so Tangli took Sanbao out.
Inside the door, medicine and tools were also ready.
The doctor ordered the patient to take off all his clothes, fed him ginseng soup, and then picked up a knife to cut off the wound.
The patient was unconscious at first, and the doctor thought it was better for him to be unconscious, at least he wouldn't have to endure the excruciating pain.
Halfway through, the patient woke up. The doctor was afraid that he would struggle, so he quickly asked others to hold him down.
However, to his surprise, the boy did not struggle, but suppressed the pain, groaned a few times, with confusion in his eyes, as if he didn't understand what this new method of torturing him was.
"I'm a doctor. I'm treating you. Don't be afraid." Doctor Zhang said softly and soothingly.
The boy bit his lip, groaned in pain, and soon fainted again.
If he can endure such pain, how much pain must he have endured before?
However, you can actually tell by looking at the injuries on his body.
The doctor sighed softly, what a poor man.
Outside the door, Sanbao was holding Tangli's arm, his little face full of worry and anxiety: "Mom, will it hurt to scrape the rotten flesh? Will he die from the pain..."
"It will definitely hurt, but he won't die. After scraping off the rotten flesh, he will get better." Tang Li said.
Sanbao nodded. She believed in her mother. If her mother said she would not die, then she would not die.
The mother and daughter were waiting outside the door.
After a long time, the door opened and the mother and daughter hurried into the house.
Doctor Zhang was sweating profusely and gasping for breath as if he had just been pulled out of the water.
Wushan Nu was lying on the bed, covered with a thin quilt, his eyes closed, and his life or death was unknown.
"The rotten flesh has been scraped off and medicine has been applied. The patient is fine," said the doctor.
After the doctor said this, Tangli and Sanbao both breathed a sigh of relief.
Very good.
