It was effortless to enter the city. Apparently the soldiers guarding the city knew that the carriage would return after leaving the city, so they left the door open.
The carriage was moving very fast, and the sound of the horse's hooves hitting the stone road was particularly crisp in the dead of night.
After entering the innermost courtyard of the post station, Mo Yue stopped the carriage.
He pulled open the car curtain, and Qin Nian discovered that there was a lantern hanging in the west of the courtyard, as bright as day.
The courtyard is in the Western Zhou Dynasty, and there are many guards.
After Qin Nian jumped out of the car, he took her inside, walking hurriedly, and it was obvious that he was in a hurry.
In the corridor, there is a guard post every three steps and a sentry every five steps, and the security is very strict.
Qin Nian was brought into a very spacious guest room. Although the windows were covered with fine gauze, they were still hung with thick dark curtains.
In this room, no one's shadow is allowed to appear on the window screen.
There was a big bed under the window, and a man in his thirties was sitting against the head of the bed, wearing white pajamas and a quilt covering his legs.
He looked listless, a bit like King Zhou in "Investiture of the Gods" when he took off his armor.
His facial features were beautiful, delicate even, and the aura he exuded was very powerful and intimidating.
He is like an extremely sharp sword, lying there, but no one dares to despise or ignore his edge.
Mo Yue bowed to the person on the bed: "Lord Xuan, Miss Qin is here."
Mo Xuan nodded slightly, his eyes falling on Qin Nian's face. Even though he was so badly injured, his eyes were still somewhat aggressive.
"Your name is Qin Nian? Are you a doctor?"
The voice was low and cold, like the wind in the twelfth lunar month, chilling and cold.
Qin Nian replied: "Yes, my name is Qin Nian, and I'm a doctor."
"You come to help me treat my injuries, but you don't even bring a medicine box?"
Qin Nian sneered: "I studied medicine with the village doctor before, but I only learned the basics.
To be precise, I am not an experienced doctor. I have never prescribed medicine or given any medication, and I certainly don't know how to prescribe medicine or give any medication.
These are your two guards who insisted that I come to see if I can heal your wound."
King Xuan hummed, "You are quite honest. Come here and take a look at my injuries."
After hearing King Xuan's instructions, a man in his fifties hurried forward and gently pulled open his pajamas, exposing his shoulders.
The sharp arrow on his shoulder had its shaft cut short to only a dozen centimeters, sticking there abruptly.
The man in his fifties tore open King Xuan's pajamas and stepped aside:
"Miss Qin, please step forward and take a closer look."
Qin Nian walked to the bedside of King Xuan without hesitation. The arrow pierced deep into the flesh.
The wound was swollen and the blood around it was almost black.
Qin Nian looked serious: "Is the arrow poisonous?"
There was a slight approval in King Xuan's eyes, but he said nothing. The man in his fifties said, "It's poisonous, extremely poisonous.
What’s worse is that the arrow has a barb and cannot be pulled out.”
Qin Nian looked at him: "You are——"
"My name is Li Hetai, and I am a doctor. I am ashamed that I cannot cure the poison that King Xuan has been poisoned with, nor do I dare to use the arrowhead.
Girl, is there anything you can do?"
"It turns out to be Doctor Li. My apologies."
Qin Nian said polite words while carefully observing the wound again.
I knew that if I wanted to get the barbed arrow out, I had to cut the wound open and then sew it up. There was no other way.
But this man was a prince, and he had been poisoned. There was no guarantee that he could be left untreated. If he was killed by the treatment, it would be a big problem.
She couldn't cause trouble for her grandmother and Geng Feng's family.
But if we just let it go, this prince’s life would probably be over.
What should I do? What should I do?
Qin Nian was hesitating when King Xuan spoke up, "I heard you can sew?"
"Yes, I will, but I don't know how to detoxify. Once--"
Qin Nian was thinking about the words when King Xuan interrupted her decisively: "Just treat the patient and try your best to save him."
He looked around and said, "Listen carefully, everyone. If anything happens to me during or after the treatment, it has nothing to do with Miss Qin.
No one should embarrass her at any time for any reason."
"yes."
The guards in the room answered in unison.
Still an understanding person.
Qin Nian said: "Get a basin of clean water."
Someone went out and quickly came back with a large basin of clean water and also carefully brought a stack of clean towels.
Qin Nian whispered, "Pour another glass of water."
Although everyone didn't understand why they had to pour a glass of water, King Xuan didn't say anything and no one dared to question it, so they could only do as they were told.
Qin Nian took the cup of water, poured most of it into the basin, and at the same time used his mind to draw spiritual spring water into the cup.
Although it was operating under the eyes of everyone, no one could discover it.
The water in the cup was not much less. Qin Nian handed the cup to King Xuan, "You drink it."
Let King Xuan drink a glass of water first, what kind of treatment is this? The guards were full of doubts and went to see the doctor Li Hetai.
Li Hetai also didn't understand what was going on.
King Xuan was very frank and took the cup without any hesitation. He tilted his head back and drank the water in the cup.
Qin Nian picked up a towel, dipped it in the water in the basin, and wiped the wound on King Xuan's shoulder.
She kept wiping and changing the water, trying to cover up the process of pouring spiritual spring water into the basin.
Qin Nian finally stopped wiping. She turned her head and whispered to Li Hetai, "Give me a sharp knife, needle and thread, and some white wine."
Is this something Li Hetai can decide?
King Xuan nodded to Mo Yue. Mo Yue went out and came back soon, bringing everything Qin Nian needed.
No anesthesia.
Xuan Wang's surgery is more troublesome than Geng Zhenhai's. Geng Zhenhai only needs to clean and suture, but his surgery requires cutting open, and it has to be done with great difficulty.
Who can bear this?
In order to encourage King Xuan, Qin Nian briefly told the story of Guan Gong scraping his bones to treat poison in the Three Kingdoms period.
King Xuan looked at Qin Nian with interest: "Do you hope that I can be like Guan Gong?"
Qin Nian nodded: "It would be amazing if they are half similar."
She looked up at Mo Yue and Mo Xing: "You two hold down King Xuan's shoulders, hold them hard, and don't let go."
"Need not."
King Xuan said coldly.
Qin Nian insisted: "It must be used. Two more people come over and hold down King Xuan's legs. Press hard and don't let go."
“This, this——”
Li Hetai rubbed his hands anxiously.
King Xuan nodded helplessly: "Listen to Miss Qin."
After an order, the two shoulders and two legs were held down by the Ximing guards.
Qin Nian picked up the sharp little dagger, wiped it several times with wine, and came to King Xuan.
She became extremely calm. A dagger was not as handy as a scalpel, but it did the trick.
Qin Nian held the dagger and ordered, "Hold it down!"
Then he steadily cut open King Xuan's wound.
King Xuan groaned, veins on his forehead bulging with pain, and he clenched his teeth tightly. His body was held down by Ximing's guards, and he tried his best to tell himself not to move.
Cold sweat rose to his forehead and rolled down his cheeks.
Qin Nian was as calm as when he was standing in front of the operating table in his previous life.
