Chapter 146: Bloody Collapse! The Third Prince is in Danger
Hearing the sound, he thrust out a sword, but the man dodged and called her in a low voice: "Zhaojun, it's me."
He Zhaojun heard the voice clearly and quickly lit a candle to check. Wen Ziduan was standing in front of her. Although he looked disheveled, he was still dressed in black, with a handsome face and unparalleled beauty.
"Third Prince?" He Zhaojun was still in doubt and casually lit the torch on the wall, illuminating the tunnel like daylight. The flames crackled and the pine oil gave off a faint fragrance. For a moment, the two looked at each other in silence.
"Zhaojun...I'm back late." Wen Ziduan said softly.
His voice was a little hoarse, revealing an unprecedented weakness, but he still reached out and hugged He Zhaojun in his arms, hugging her again and again.
He Zhaojun looked at him, a little dazed. After a while, she felt that her palms were covered with sticky liquid. When she looked at it under the light, she saw that the fingers pressing on Wen Ziduan's abdomen were soaked with blood. There was also a small patch of blood on the ground where he was standing.
"Are you hurt?" He Zhaojun pushed him away and looked around hurriedly, but unexpectedly, with just a slight push, Wen Ziduan took two steps back and was staggering. It was obvious that he was struggling to stand.
He Zhaojun tore off his clothes in a few seconds and saw the half-inserted crossbow arrow with a barb. Her heart ached and she almost cried.
"I'll go find the healer. Please sit here and wait."
He Zhaojun turned and was about to run upstairs, but Wen Ziduan gently grabbed her wrist and said, "This matter must not be made public, let alone known to anyone in the palace. Zisheng is engaged, and there are many people outside watching..."
He Zhaojun wiped the tears from her face in a few seconds: "There's some medicine here. You have to let me treat your wound, right?"
Wen Ziduan covered his wound and refused to show it to her again: "I'm afraid of scaring you. When Gu Guan finishes other things, he will come here to find me. You don't have to worry."
As he spoke, a trace of blood flowed from the corner of his mouth. His face turned pale. He snorted coldly, lay down on the couch beside him, and said no more.
Seeing that he refused, He Zhaojun tore his hands apart and tied them to the head of the bed to prevent him from struggling. "Have you forgotten? I treated countless soldiers' wounds during the chaos. Not even you!"
Wen Ziduan moved his wrist and found it was locked tightly. He forced a smile and said, "What do you want to do by preparing something like this..."
The next moment, He Zhaojun pulled out the cork and poured the refined alcohol on Wen Ziduan's abdominal wound. The pain made him sweat coldly on his forehead and he could no longer speak.
"Bear with it, I'm going to pull out the arrow." He Zhaojun handed a piece of gauze to Wen Ziduan and motioned him to bite it.
Wen Ziduan shook his head gently: "I can't help it."
"But, I just gave you Ma Fei San. If you drink more, what if you can't wake up?" He Zhaojun was anxious, but she had to hold it in. The arrowhead was lodged in the flesh, wouldn't it cause tetanus?
He gasped: "My future bride, you want to take off my clothes at this time..."
He Zhaojun didn't hesitate any longer. The more Wen Ziduan talked, the more seriously injured he was. With this in mind, she used a special tool to separate the wound. With swift movements, she yanked the arrowhead from his body. The wound bleeds profusely, and cold sweat streams down He Zhaojun's forehead.
Although he was lucky enough not to injure any major organs, the amount of blood loss alone was enough to make an adult man lose consciousness. "I'm going to scrape off the dead flesh from your wound and sew it up from the inside out. You better bear it and don't scream too loudly, or the people above will hear you."
As she spoke, Wen Ziduan endured the pain, reached out to hook her hair, and slowly bit it in his mouth, signaling her with his eyes to start.
He Zhaojun cursed inwardly, it was already so late, and the peacock was still spreading its tail feathers?
