Chapter 125
Even though Yu Ying was very worried about Fu Zhen's condition, she quickly calmed down and checked Fu Zhen's condition.
Fu Zhen's condition is very bad.
Before checking the wound, Yu Ying discovered that his body temperature was very hot.
Fu Wei's dry, thin lips parted, and he spoke in a hoarse voice, "The accompanying doctor came once yesterday to bandage my wound, and again today. He said that if I can survive tonight, I'll be lucky."
The two times took only half a minute. After instructing the medicine boy to bandage the wound, he wrote a prescription and left.
Hearing this, Yu Ying looked calm on the surface, but anger arose in her heart.
What does it mean to be lucky if you can survive tonight?!
Did they try their best?!
Without trying your best, even nine lives wouldn't be enough!
She secretly breathed a sigh of relief, clearing away the negative emotions in her heart. Then she untied the gauze from Fu Zhen's body and asked Fu Wei, "Have you used the medicine?"
Fu Wei hummed, then said, "I didn't take the medicine the doctor prescribed. I took the medicine you were going to give me and asked the doctor, and he said it was OK to use."
Yu Ying was afraid of the worst, so she prepared various medicines for Fu Wei, including medicine for fever, hemostatic and anti-inflammatory medicines, but she didn't expect that they would come in handy on Fu Zhen.
But no matter who uses it, she doesn't want to use these medicines at all.
After a moment of silence, Yu Ying untied the gauze and saw Fu Zhen's knife wound.
There was a cut from the shoulder to the right chest, with flesh and blood protruding. Fortunately, the wound had been treated, so it wasn't that scary, but it was still shocking.
If you just keep bandaging the wound, any slight movement will cause it to split and bleed, and it may also become infected, festering and inflamed.
The wound is not very deep, but due to the wide range of the wound, excessive blood loss will cause coma.
Yu Ying cleaned up the needle, thread, scissors and gauze.
After cleaning Fu Zhen's wound again, he began to sew it up, with Fu Wei helping him.
It took more than half an hour to complete the suturing. After bandaging the wound, Yu Ying took the pulse again and then asked Fu Wei to feed Fu Zhen half a cup of hot water.
After breathing a sigh of relief, Yu Ying said, "I'll go make some medicine later. First, feed him some thick porridge and then give him the medicine."
Wu Xiaoyacha hurriedly said, "I'll go cook some porridge now."
Then he walked out of the tent.
Only the couple were awake in the tent.
Yu Ying looked at Fu Wei, who was silent beside her, and poured him a glass of water: "Drink some water."
Fu Wei took the water, took a sip and put it aside, quietly looking at Fu Zhen on the bed.
His face looked calm. Although it was hard to tell what he was thinking, the sadness around him told Yu Ying that he was very sad.
Yu Ying walked behind him, bent down, and hugged him from behind.
No words of comfort can compare to a hug.
Being enveloped by a light herbal fragrance, my restless emotions were soothed and my mood gradually calmed down.
Fu Wei raised his hand and placed it on the back of her hand, saying in a hoarse voice, "I'm fine. I was just touched by my eldest brother's actions."
Yu Ying patted his shoulder gently, and heard his voice tremble slightly: "Ah Ying, I am afraid. I am not afraid of life or death, but I am afraid that my elder brother will die because of me."
Yu Ying looked at Fu Zhen lying on the bed and breathed a sigh of relief.
Fu Zhen escaped the disaster last year, and neither she nor Fu Wei expected that another disaster was waiting for him.
"The wound didn't damage any of his internal organs. He'll be safe once the high fever subsides."
There are no various Western medicines here, but Chinese medicine is not bad, it just takes a longer time to take effect.
"You should take a rest for a while, I'll take care of it." She advised.
Fu Wei shook his head.
Yu Ying knew that he had not rested well either, so she did not try to persuade him anymore. Instead, she prepared herbs, medicine pots and a ceramic stove and went out to boil medicine.
Fu Wei's position here with Prefect Shen is rather awkward.
If the assassination attempt had happened, it would have been fine if Prefect Shen was safe and sound, and someone would have come to look after him. But it was obvious that the legitimate son was in trouble, and Fu Wei was no longer a big deal, let alone a small constable.
After stepping out of the tent, Yu Ying saw that the area in front of the tent, separated by more than a dozen tents, was crowded with people, and everyone was in a hurry coming and going.
Yes, he is the legitimate son of Governor Shen, how can I not be nervous?
I'm afraid the doctors accompanying us are all treating the legitimate son now.
Although she didn't know the condition of the legitimate son, Yu Ying would not rashly volunteer to treat him.
Not to mention that she is not a miracle doctor. Besides, if she can save the patient, that's good. But if she can't, it's not as simple as letting the patient go home. The entire Fu family is involved, and perhaps even County Magistrate Zhou is involved.
Yu Ying withdrew her gaze and continued to boil the medicine.
Wu Xiaoyacha was also cooking porridge outside the tent. He hurriedly said, "Madam Yu, I'll take care of it." After thinking for a moment, he said, "Mr. Fu also had some injuries and didn't ask the doctor to see him."
Upon hearing this, Yu Ying was slightly stunned.
Fu Wei's outer shirt was neat, obviously he had changed it. It didn't take much thought to know that he didn't want her to see it and worry.
Thinking of this, Yu Ying instructed Wu Xiaoyacha on how to boil the medicine, and then went into the house.
"Let me take a look at your injuries."
Fu Wei said, "It's just a minor injury from falling off a carriage. It's nothing serious."
Yu Ying knew Fu Wei. He was used to describing his injuries as minor ones when they were serious ones. Without saying anything, she walked up to him and grabbed his collar.
"I won't feel at ease unless I check it."
Fu Wei raised his eyes to look at her, his ears slightly red, and then he said: "My tent is next door. I will do the check after Big Brother drinks the medicine."
Yu Ying was about to say something when she heard someone talking to Wu Xiaoyacha outside: "I heard that Madam Yu knows some medical skills. I wonder if you could trouble Madam Yu to help my brother take a look."
Yu Ying and Fu Wei looked at each other and said, "I'll go out and take a look."
When she turned around, Fu Wei grabbed her hand.
Yu Ying turned and looked at him.
Fu Wei whispered, "If you can save him, save him. If you can't, don't do anything."
Yu Ying nodded: "I know what I'm doing."
When Yu Ying walked out of the tent, she saw a guard covered in blood, in a dishevel, with red eyes standing in front of Wu Xiaoyacha.
Seeing her come out of the tent, the guard hurriedly bowed and said, "I am the captain of the guards protecting the young master, my surname is Luo."
Yu Ying nodded: "Captain Luo."
Guard Captain Luo said hoarsely, "Two of our brothers are seriously injured. I wonder if Madam Yu has time to go and help take a look."
Yu Ying understood that this person came here because he had no other choice.
The cause of death of the eldest son was unknown, and all the doctors gathered around him. It was estimated that only the accompanying medicine boy helped to bandage the wound.
People at the bottom of society are nothing but worthless lives in the eyes of the powerful.
Yu Ying thought for a few breaths and said, "I can't guarantee that I can cure it."
Captain Luo, who was looking at Yu Ying nervously, knew that she was willing to take action when he heard this, and he breathed a sigh of relief.
They also learned a little about Madam Yu's affairs because of the favor of Prefect Fu Wei.
I heard that she was the first to discover the epidemic in Yu County, and I also heard that she opened a clinic in Yu County. I think she must have some real skills, but I don’t know how deep these skills are.
Originally they all thought that they had real skills, but they were just bragging. But now several doctors are surrounding the legitimate son. If they don't get treatment for their serious injuries, they may not see the sun tomorrow, so they can only take a gamble.
If you are lucky, you can save your life, but at worst it will not be better than dying.
"Madam Yu, just do your best. Life and death are determined by fate. We will not blame you."
Yu Ying nodded, then said, "Please wait a moment, I'll get something and come back."
With that, she turned and went into the tent, gathering up the sewing thread and needle, as well as some medicine.
Fu Wei had heard what was going on outside, but he didn't say anything. He just poured her a cup of tea and said, "Take a sip of tea before you go."
After running around for most of the day, Yu Ying was indeed thirsty. She took the tea and drank it before leaving.
After walking for a while with Captain Luo, Wu Xiaoyachao, they arrived at a place where several people with blood on their bodies were sitting on the ground. They took off their shirts and treated their wounds themselves.
The wounds were all very hideous. Their faces were pale and they were gritting their teeth to treat the wounds. If they were ordinary people, they would have fallen to the ground and wailed.
Perhaps it was because they were used to seeing separations and deaths during the epidemic, so they remained calm when seeing these bloody scenes.
Guard Captain Luo glanced at Madam Yu, who remained calm, and expressed his admiration. He then said, "The most seriously injured are inside the tent."
After saying that, he walked to the front of the tent and opened the curtain.
The smell of blood in the tent was stronger than that in Fu Zhen's tent.
Three teenaged medicine boys were frantically busy in the tent, hastily dealing with the two guards on the camp beds.
The wounds on the guard's body were even more shocking than Fu Zhen's. The knife wound on his arm had flesh turned inside out, and the bone was exposed, and the blood was flowing non-stop.
Yu Ying immediately stepped forward to check the two people's vital signs and found that their breathing was weak.
While checking, he asked the guard captain Luo beside him: "When did you get injured?"
Guard Captain Luo said, "Yesterday, when we were hunting, we encountered a large number of assassins and had to hide. We originally planned to return to the camp at night, but we were blocked on the way. We risked our lives to escort the young master back."
Yu Ying didn't say any more nonsense, but started to feed the two people some blood-replenishing medicine, and then treated their wounds.
This took more than an hour, the sun had completely set, and night fell.
As night fell, the roars of tigers and howls of wolves were creepy. Yu Ying had lived in Lingshui Village for more than half a year and was used to hearing them. Besides, her whole body was tense from the inside out, so she had no time to be afraid.
It was cold in the mountains at night, but Yu Ying still broke out in a sweat.
After treating the wounds of the two seriously injured guards, she then treated the wounds of the other guards outside the tent.
She had observed that although those wounds were not fatal, they would cause pus and fever at night if not treated properly.
After the matter was processed, he gave it to Captain Luo, the guard, to boil it into soup for everyone to drink.
After she had finished everything, she heard that the legitimate son had woken up. The captain of the guards also mentioned that the legitimate son had fallen into the ravine on his own and was unconscious because he was frightened.
He only said a few words and didn't dare to say more, but Yu Ying could guess how the legitimate son was so afraid of death that he fell into the ravine in a panic. Maybe so many people were seriously injured because of him.
When Yu Ying returned to Fu Zhen's tent, Fu Wei was no longer there, but Huo Yacha was watching.
Huo Yacha said, "Mr. Fu has just returned to his tent."
Yu Ying nodded and went forward to check. Fu Zhen's fever had subsided, so she left the tent with peace of mind.
From Wu Xiaoyacha's mouth, we learned the location of Fu Wei's tent.
Right next door.
He walked a few steps over and was about to speak when he reached the outside of the tent when Fu Wei's voice came from inside: "You can come in."
Yu Ying took the medicine, opened the curtain and entered the tent. Fu Wei was washing his hands.
There was also a simple camp bed in the room, and a low table on the bed. Yu Ying placed the medicine bottle on the table and looked at Fu Wei.
With just one look, Fu Wei knew what she wanted to express, and could only helplessly take off his clothes to reveal his smooth skin texture.
His physique has returned to the state it was in Wuling County. When he is dressed, he looks like a gentleman, but when he takes off his robe, one can tell at a glance that he is a man who has practiced martial arts for many years. His muscles are not bulging but strong and firm, and his figure is slender and strong.
But due to the old mottled wounds from previous tortures and the new bruises, his arms had turned into patches of black and purple. You could imagine how hard he had fallen. There were also some scratches on his arms, probably from swords and knives.
Yu Ying lowered her eyes and picked up the blood-stasis-removing wine. Fu Wei consciously sat on the edge of the bed and said in a gentle voice, "It's okay. It will go away in a few days."
Hearing this, Yu Ying raised her eyes.
Fu Wei was stunned when he saw her red eyes.
He rarely saw her vulnerable side.
I had been feeling tense all day, trying to calm myself down and be composed, but at this moment, I couldn't hold it back anymore.
Yu Ying raised her hand and wiped the moisture from the corners of her eyes with her fingertips. Her voice trembled slightly, "Do you know how worried I am about you?"
Fu Wei was startled. Just as he was about to explain again that it was really nothing, she interrupted him again: "You want to say it's really nothing again, right?"
Meeting her direct gaze, Fu Wei fell silent.
"If you get hurt in the future, don't keep lying to me and say you're fine. Tell me the truth so I can feel at ease. If you keep it a secret from me so I don't worry, you'll only make me more worried."
"If you and I weren't husband and wife, I wouldn't be saying this to you, but we are already husband and wife, and we are the closest people. Don't hide it from me next time, okay?"
Yu Ying looked at him, and her eyes couldn't help but become a little moist. He was the closest person to her in this world.
Fu Wei opened his mouth and whispered, "Okay."
Seeing her sad, his heart felt a little blocked. Knowing that he really hadn't considered this and made her sad, he said again: "I'm sorry."
After talking it out, Yu Ying took a deep breath and didn't argue about it. Instead, she cleaned his wound and removed the blood stasis.
After a moment of silence, Fu Wei said, "Aying, I think it's time to recover my legs."
Yu Ying paused while applying the medicinal wine, but then said, "Alright."
He was on guard against Huo Minzhi, but apart from Huo Minzhi, there were dangers everywhere. It was unsafe and inconvenient to always limp.
