Chapter 414: Fu Bao asks someone to treat Wan Lao Er
After Zheng Wenru brought Liu Changxing and Wan Laoer into the county government office, he immediately ordered someone to invite a doctor to treat Wan Laoer.
Perhaps the only one who could explain all this clearly now was Wan Laoer. Zheng Wenru didn't even look at Fubao. In his opinion, such a young child probably couldn't tell any useful information.
Wan Laoer was carried into a room in the county government office, and a doctor was soon called in.
After the old doctor's diagnosis, he shook his head.
"Doctor, can this man still be saved?" The county magistrate had not left yet, and asked immediately after the doctor finished taking the man's pulse.
"It's not good. Although he can be saved, it depends on his luck. I'll prescribe him some medicine first. He needs to take it immediately. In addition, his hand is also broken. It also needs to be reattached quickly, otherwise this hand will be useless in the future and he won't be able to do anything."
Zheng Wenru actually didn’t care much about whether Wan Laoer’s hand was disabled or not, but since he could save him, it would be a convenient thing to do, so he didn’t say much.
"So when will he wake up?"
"It's hard to say. He may wake up tonight, or he may sleep for a few days. His internal organs are severely damaged. Whether they can repair themselves depends on the individual. Some people can indeed repair themselves, but some people have poor health and will die soon."
Fubao tilted his little head back and watched the doctor and the magistrate talking. When he heard what the doctor said, he knelt down.
She grabbed the doctor's clothes with her small hands, tears welling up in her eyes. Her big eyes were swollen and red like walnuts from crying. "Doctor, I beg you, please save my dad. I will definitely repay you. My dad is rich, my eldest brother is a general, and my uncle is a captain of the police. They will all repay you. Please save him, please save him."
Fubao was crying so hard that he was gasping for breath, his little voice was hoarse, and his little face was covered in dust, black and white from his tears. He looked like a dirty little kid.
But Fubao's words attracted the attention of the county magistrate, and the doctor also looked at the county magistrate, feeling a little embarrassed.
The county magistrate finally began to look Fubao in the face. He slowly squatted down, picked up Fubao and sat him on the stool.
"Little girl, what's your name?" Zheng Wenru asked as gently as possible.
Fubao sobbed and said, "My name is Fubao, and I'm from Shizi Village, Jinwu Town, Xuanning County. My father's name is Wan Jinzhu."
Zheng Wenru was a little surprised. This child was really smart and had such a good memory! Moreover, he spoke clearly and without any stuttering.
Zheng Wenru couldn't help but look at Fubao with admiration and ordered someone to bring a wet towel to wipe Fubao's face.
After Fubao was washed, a heart-meltingly cute little face appeared in front of Zheng Wenru.
"You just said that your elder brother is a general. Do you know where your elder brother is a general?"
Fubao had been immersed in sorrow. When she heard Zheng Wenru asking for Wanquan's information, she suddenly remembered that when she was in Hongyang County, she had gained benefits by relying on her big brother's title. If she mentioned her big brother's title now, would the other party be able to deal with her father well?
Fubao seemed to see hope and stopped crying. He swallowed hard and calmed down. Then he looked at Zheng Wenru seriously and said word by word, "My brother is Wanquan, the Lieutenant General of Dezhou. He is a new general appointed by the emperor this year. My father said that he is the youngest general in our Great Qi. He is very capable."
After Fubao finished speaking, she looked at Zheng Wenru eagerly. She was observing his words and expressions, which was what she was good at.
Sure enough, she saw the other person's expression change from surprise to delight.
Fubao took the opportunity to climb down from the stool and was about to kneel down again, but was pulled up by Zheng Wenru.
"Sir, please save my father, okay? Our whole family will be grateful to you."
Tears flashed in Fubao's big eyes. He looked at Zheng Wenru pitifully, and from time to time glanced at Wan Laoer lying on the bed. His heart ached.
Zheng Wenru was also moved by Fubao's filial piety. Such a young child could do so much. How many children like him are there in the entire county?
At this time, he was not just doing it for Wanquan's sake, but also largely because of Fubao.
"Doctor, just use the medicine and make sure to save the patient. If you need any herbs, just tell me. I have a hundred-year-old ginseng here. If you need it for medicine, I'll send someone to get it for you."
Since Zheng Wenru had spoken, the doctor certainly did not dare to slack off. He immediately changed the prescription and added a few precious medicinal herbs that could not only warm the patient but also help him wake up as soon as possible.
"Okay, just follow the prescription here. If nothing unexpected happens, the patient should wake up tomorrow morning."
Zheng Wenru immediately ordered someone to get the medicine and start decocting it.
"Fubao, your name is Fubao, right?" Zheng Wenru asked, looking down at the little girl in his arms.
"Yes, my name is Fubao. Thank you for saving my father."
"This is what I should do. Your father needs to rest now. Let's go out first and don't disturb him here, okay?"
"But... Fubao wants to stay and take care of daddy. If daddy wakes up and can't see Fubao, he will be worried. Fubao doesn't want to leave daddy either."
Zheng Wenru suddenly thought that such a smart girl might know something, so he planned to take her out to ask some questions, but he didn't expect that the girl was unwilling to go out.
"Girl, since you don't want to go out, then stay here and guard your father. But I have something to ask you. Can you answer truthfully? If you lie, your father's life may be in danger. Those bad guys haven't gone far yet. They might sneak in and take you away."
Zheng Wenru shamelessly used threats and deception on a child.
Fubao was very worried about Wan Laoer, and she didn't want to leave with the national teacher. She didn't want to go back to Yue State, and she didn't want to be a princess. She just wanted to run around in Shizi Village. She liked being the treasure of her adoptive parents. When she had nothing to do, she would patrol the village with her big white geese, which was both majestic and fun.
Shizi Village carried Fubao's entire childhood and will always be the hometown in her heart. No matter how far she goes in the future, Shizi Village will always be a gentle piece of land in her childhood memories.
At this moment, all Fubao could think about was that she couldn't go back, and she couldn't let her father get hurt again. She had to protect her father.
She remembered what she had said to her mother before leaving. She came out to protect her father, but now because of her, her father was lying in bed and was seriously injured. Fubao blamed herself very much, and the little girl felt very sad.
She had a bold idea. Those people had already found her, and more people would come looking for her in the future. It seemed that she could not protect her father anymore, but she still wanted to live with her family, so she had to let more people protect them.
Fu Bao looked at Zheng Wenru and asked in a low voice: "My lord, I know who those people are. They are from Yue, but we don't know them. They said I am the princess of their country and that I can bring them good fortune. They want to take me back. My lord, do you think they have recognized the wrong person? I remember that I am my father's daughter, and I have been like that since I was a child."
Zheng Wenru looked at Fubao in shock, his heart already filled with turmoil. He looked carefully at Fubao's features and discovered that this child was not at all like the person lying on the bed, which showed that what the child said was probably true.
She is the princess of Yue State!
