Chapter 33 If you dare to die, I'll tear you to pieces
Zhuiying also thought their prince was dead and regretted not saving him immediately. She rushed over and reached out to check his breath, "Prince, Prince..."
Yun Zhaoxue said, "She is still breathing, but her breath is very weak."
The jailer asked worriedly, "What should we do? Will he be able to speak tomorrow?"
He didn't care whether Xiao Xuance lived or died; he was only worried about whether the trial could proceed tomorrow.
Yun Zhaoxue said coldly, "Speak? It's good enough that the person isn't dead."
"Hurry up and prepare several buckets of clean water, hot water, towels, gauze, and wound medicine. You must be quick, or you can expect to be beheaded tomorrow."
The jailer ordered the guards, "Hurry up and prepare the things the princess mentioned, or you'll be beheaded tomorrow."
"yes!"
The torture chamber reeked of blood and was not a place to linger.
Zhuiying carried Xiao Xuance back to the cell where he had been staying.
Soon, several jailers came carrying a bath tub, followed by several people carrying water.
The jailers put down the bathtub and water and then left.
Yun Zhaoxue instructed Zhuiying to remove Xiao Xuance's clothes, preparing to wipe away the salt water with clean water before applying medicine, otherwise the wound would become infected, fester, and rot from being soaked in salt water.
While Zhuiying was taking off his clothes, he replaced the clean water in the bucket with spiritual spring water.
I poured some medicinal powder specifically for treating external injuries into the spring water, then soaked gauze in the spring water and applied it to the wound.
Zhuiying wanted to stop it but it was too late. He still felt that Yun Zhaoxue was untrustworthy, but right now there was no one else who could help save the prince except her.
Yun Zhaoxue looked at the new and old scars covering Xiao Xuance's body. An ordinary person would have bitten their tongue and committed suicide from the pain, but he was able to endure it. He was extraordinary.
After cleaning the wound with Lingquan water, bandaging and applying medicine began.
As the medicine was being applied, Xiao Xuance suddenly opened his eyes. "You..." How did you get here?
Before he lost consciousness, the pain from his wounds was unbearable, but now he feels nothing. Is he about to die?
Yun Zhaoxue: "Finally awake? Don't worry, with me here, you won't die!"
In her past life, she was a divine physician skilled in both medicine and poison, specializing in snatching people from the clutches of the King of Hell, healing the dead and restoring flesh to bones. Many wealthy people who valued their lives offered her large sums of money to be their private doctor or treat their illnesses, but she refused all their services.
Saving lives is nowhere near as satisfying as killing.
Even though Xiao Xuance felt he was about to die, he remained vigilant, pressing down on her hands that were busy on his body, and said weakly, "You don't need to waste your energy. Take the divorce papers and leave the palace."
Yun Zhaoxue sneered, "You think those people will let me go once I leave the door? No, I'll die even faster. I really don't know if you were tortured by Qin Hu and the others until you went crazy, or if you're trying to kill me."
If it's the latter, you're incredibly cruel. I, the princess, am carrying your child; even a tiger wouldn't eat its own cub.
"We didn't mean to kill you..."
"That's good, the rescue wasn't in vain."
Yun Zhaoxue pulled her hand away, wanting to continue applying medicine and bandaging him, but before she could touch his injury, her hand was pressed down again.
Yun Zhaoxue pulled it out, and he grabbed it again.
The man's large hands were covered in mud and blood, and after being touched several times, they had dirtied her entire hand.
A hint of disdain flashed across Yun Zhaoxue's beautiful eyes. "Ying'er, come here and hold your young master down."
When Zhuiying heard how she addressed him, the corner of his mouth twitched.
He stepped forward and squatted down, but before he could touch Xiao Xuance, he was stopped by a look from him. "Take her out of here. This young master won't die for now."
In the past, Zhuiying would have blindly obeyed his master's orders, but this time was different. He was too badly injured, and his life could not be saved without treatment.
He glanced at Yun Zhaoxue again, unsure of whose advice to take.
Yun Zhaoxue also has his own temper. He is the one who is always asked to treat others. The first time he offered to treat him, he refused. He was being ungrateful for Yun Zhaoxue's kindness.
She said angrily, "You won't die tonight, but if you don't heal your injuries, what if you die on the way to exile? You don't need to doubt me. Ever since the night Qin Hu captured me, I've known that I can't trust anyone. We're in the same boat now, and we have to work together to get through this. You have to live well and protect my child and me. If you dare to die, I'll tear your body to pieces and skin you alive."
Shen Yan is the third prince's cousin. On the surface, he is a carefree and dissolute playboy, but in reality, he works for the prince.
The Third Prince had long known that Shen Yan had handed the original owner over to Qin Hu for humiliation, yet he remained indifferent; it's possible that the Third Prince was the one who instigated it.
The Third Prince is unreliable.
Xiao Xuance is a loyal and capable general, skilled in both literature and martial arts, and the future commander of the Xiao family army of the Prince of Zhenbei. His character... is alright. It's much better to ally with him than with the Third Prince.
He guessed that Qin Hu's imprisonment and humiliation of Xiao Xuance was also a conspiracy by the Third Prince's faction, to incite the Crown Prince's faction and the Zhenbei Prince's Mansion to tear each other apart, like a mantis stalking a cicada, unaware of the oriole behind.
