Her voice was clear and powerful, with unquestionable majesty.
When everyone heard her order, they were stunned at first, and then they reacted and took action quickly like soldiers who received an urgent order.
Some ran towards the warehouse, while others shouted loudly around looking for materials. For a moment, the scene was busy but orderly.
Not long after, the required materials were delivered to Su Huaiyue.
The white cloth is as white as snow and is spread out flatly; the wooden boards are solid and cut into suitable lengths; the plaster powder is fine and white and is quietly placed in the container.
Su Huaiyue looked at these materials, a hint of certainty flashed in his eyes, and he nodded secretly in his heart, preparing to start treating the princess's injuries.
She first gently unfolded the white cloth and spread it aside, as if caressing a precious treasure, and then placed the wooden boards in order, examining them carefully to make sure everything was ready.
Then, she devoted herself to the work of mixing the plaster. Her hands were like nimble elves, lightly pouring the plaster powder into the container, then slowly adding clean water, and mixing it in an orderly manner according to the proportions she remembered.
The moment the powder and water mixed, tiny ripples appeared. Her wrist turned flexibly, and her stirring movements were skillful and smooth, and each one was just right.
While preparing the plaster, Su Huaiyue's eyes kept turning to the princess.
At this time, the princess was lying quietly on the couch, her delicate face slightly distorted by pain, her face as pale as paper, without any blood.
Her hands clutched the quilt tightly, her knuckles turning white from the force, as if the quilt was her only support while she endured the severe pain.
Her lips were tightly pursed into a straight line, her brows were deeply furrowed, forming an ugly "川" character, and her forehead was covered with dense beads of sweat, which rolled down in large drops and soaked the pillowcase.
However, even though the pain was so severe, she always gritted her teeth and said nothing. Her stubborn look seemed to declare her unyielding attitude towards the pain.
Su Huaiyue saw this, feeling both distressed and in awe. She stopped what she was doing and said softly, "Princess, if it hurts, just scream out. Don't hold it in. It will feel better this way."
The princess shook her head slightly, her eyes revealing a sense of determination and arrogance, as if saying that the dignity of the royal family must not be violated, and even if the body is in severe pain, there must be no sign of weakness.
She still clenched her teeth, silently fighting against the excruciating pain, as if to prove to the world that she was a member of the royal family and possessed extraordinary endurance.
Su Huaiyue sighed helplessly, her eyes full of pity, and continued with her actions.
As she prepared the plaster, she explained to the princess, "Your Highness, I'm going to give you a plaster cast so your leg can heal better. This is a method unique to my hometown, and it's very effective. Don't worry."
The princess nodded slightly. Although there was pain in her eyes, looking at Su Huaiyue's serious and focused look, her trust in her increased a little bit. A hint of gratitude was also faintly revealed in her originally cold eyes.
Finally, the gypsum was prepared, becoming a fine and thick state with a faint scent of lime.
Su Huaiyue picked up a piece of white cloth and carefully spread the plaster evenly on it. Her movements were gentle and cautious, as if she was carving a fine work of art.
Then, she gently applied it on the princess's leg. The moment it touched the wound, the princess's body trembled slightly, but she still forced herself not to make a sound, but just clenched the quilt with her hands a little tighter.
Su Huaiyue moved gently but quickly, and soon fixed the princess's legs with white cloth and wooden boards. Every movement was full of concern and care.
After treating the injuries, Su Huaiyue breathed a sigh of relief, her tense nerves finally relaxed a little, and she raised her head to look at the princess.
The princess's complexion looked slightly better now, and the pain seemed to have eased a bit. She looked at Su Huaiyue with a glint of approval in her eyes, and slowly said, "Miss Su, thank you very much. As a member of the royal family, my every word and action represents the dignity of the royal family. Royal family members can avoid suffering, but they cannot be intolerant of suffering, and they must not let the people suffer. There are some pains that I must endure. This is my responsibility and the mission of the royal family."
Although her voice was weak, it revealed an unquestionable majesty and arrogance. Her high chin and the twinkling light in her eyes all demonstrated the innate dignity and confidence of the royal family.
Su Huaiyue listened to the princess' words with a look of surprise on her face.
In her understanding as a time traveler, the imperial power in ancient times often meant being high and mighty. Most of the royal family members regarded themselves as born superiors and were accustomed to a life of luxury. Their style of behavior was mostly willful and indifferent, and they were dismissive of the suffering of the people.
However, at this moment, the princess in front of her overturned her previous cognition.
She had never expected that the princess, who seemed delicate and pampered on weekdays, could speak such profound and responsible words.
The princess' pale but resolute face, and her voice full of majesty and arrogance, made Su Huaiyue realize that this royal lady was not simple.
She looked at the princess, a complex emotion flashing in her eyes, including surprise and thought.
Su Huaiyue opened her mouth slightly, and the words that she wanted to express respect turned into a hint of doubt.
But she quickly gathered her thoughts, nodded slightly, and said with a hint of caution in her tone: "Your Highness, your words have given me a new understanding of the royal family."
The princess looked pale, but she still smiled at her with a soothing smile.
Su Huaiyue stood quietly aside, his eyes fixed on the princess, thinking secretly in his heart.
No wonder the imperial system lasted for thousands of years on this land before being overthrown. If everyone in the royal family was like the princess in front of him, with such awareness and strict demands on themselves, how could they be easily abandoned by the people?
A complex emotion surged in her heart, including surprise and amazement at the princess herself, as well as a re-examination of this ancient imperial society.
In this era, the majesty of imperial power is still deeply rooted, and the existence of this princess seems to add a different color to this seemingly corrupt imperial system.
Su Huaiyue sighed softly and silently left the room, but her thoughts could not calm down for a long time.
After Su Huaiyue left the princess's room, he was still thinking about what the princess had said, and his thoughts were a little confused.
But she soon remembered Jing Wenxuan, the man who was seriously injured while protecting the princess and everyone else.
