Upon entering the city, Jiang Peihuan noticed that although there were fewer corpses than outside the city, there were still many. She turned to the man beside her and said, “We can delay it a bit. Let’s go back and rest first.”
Hearing Jiang Peihuan’s words, Xiao Nanye frowned and softly replied.
However, Jiang Peihuan, without responding verbally, only looked at him calmly. In the end, Xiao Nanye gave in and led her directly towards the military camp.
At the entrance of the camp, Jiang Peihuan observed that the condition of the soldiers was relatively good. However, after following Xiao Nanye to the tents behind, she discovered the situation was dire.
Countless soldiers were packed inside the tents, with exhausted military doctors moving amongst them. Seeing this, Jiang Peihuan immediately stepped forward, signaling to Ye Xiao and Cheng Yang to help examine the soldiers.
BoxNovel.com“Yes.”
The soldiers were taken aback by the sudden appearance of Jiang Peihuan and her party. However, when they saw Xiao Nanye, no one voiced any objections.
Jiang Peihuan focused on taking the pulse of the soldiers, but the results made her furrow her brows.
Four hours later, she finally took a break.
“Huan Er, rest for a bit,” said Xiao Nanye, who had been careful not to disturb her while she was working. As soon as she paused, he quickly stepped forward to support her.
“Xiao Nanye, are there any operational pharmacies left in the city?”
“Do you need medicinal herbs?”
Hearing her question, Xiao Nanye instinctively responded.
After she nodded, he continued, “Tell me what you need, and I’ll have Han Feng fetch it.”
Jiang Peihuan took a pen and paper from Ye Xiao and wrote down a long prescription, handing it to Han Feng. “Get as much of the herbs on this list as possible,” she instructed.
“Yes.”
After Han Feng departed with the prescription, Jiang Peihuan turned to the soldiers in the tent and said, “Don’t crowd so many people in one tent. It will exacerbate the condition. Reduce the number of people in each tent by half, and boil all the soldiers’ clothes and equipment in hot water.”
The soldiers looked baffled upon hearing her instructions.
Seeing their reaction, Xiao Nanye sternly said, “Didn’t you hear the Queen orders?”
Snapping back to reality, they immediately responded, “Greetings to Queen Cheng.”
Now that they knew Jiang Peihuan was Xiao Nanye’s wife, their attitudes changed instantly. Jiang Peihuan, however, didn’t mind.
Suddenly, a man in armor rushed into the tent shouting, “Medic, quickly check on Old Liu. He can’t hold on much longer!” Without acknowledging Xiao Nanye or noticing Jiang Peihuan, he grabbed the medic.
However, as the man tried to leave, Jiang Changbai stopped him. “What happened to General Liu?”
“Those damned enemies poisoned him! Old Liu fell into their trap.”
“Xiao Nanye, let’s go and take a look,” Jiang Peihuan suggested, noticing the medic being pulled away hastily by the armored man.
Upon entering the camp, Xiao Nanye didn’t make a sound but just nodded.
When they stepped out of the tent, Jiang Peihuan heard yelling.
Following the noise, she saw a man on a stretcher with a full beard — it was General Liu.
“General Wan, let me go first. How can 1 examine General Liu if you’re holding me like this?” said the military doctor.
The man who was grabbing the military doctor, General Wan, quickly released him upon hearing this.
From Jiang Peihuan’s perspective, she noticed the ashen complexion on General Liu’s face, a clear indication that he had been poisoned.
After checking General Liu’s pulse, the military doctor shook his head and said, “It’s snake venom, and there’s no antidote.”
“What nonsense are you talking about? Aren’t you an military doctor? If you don’t treat him, 1’11 cut you down!” threatened General Wan.
“Wan Dashan, stop!” Xiao Nanye interjected with a cold look when General Wan actually pulled out his blade.
It was at that moment that General Wan noticed Xiao Nanye. Seeing him, he immediately stopped, his eyes filled with anguish, “Your Highness, how about General Liu?”
“Xiao Nanye, 1 can save him,” Jiang Peihuan said.
“You have a way? Then hurry up and save him.”
General Wan, desperate and focused only on Jiang Peihuan’s words, tried to grab her. However, he was stopped by Jiang Changbai, “Wan, calm down. This is the Queen.”
“Queen Cheng?”
Surprised, General Wan looked at Jiang Peihuan in a new light. Jiang Peihuan, unperturbed, calmly approached General Liu.
Checking his pulse confirmed the army doctor’s diagnosis: it was indeed snake venom.
Then, Jian Peihuan walked to General Liu’s side.
She reached out and felt his pulse. Just as the military doctor said, General Liu was indeed poisoned by snake venom.
Releasing General Liu’s wrist, Jiang Peihuan told Xiao Nanye, “I can use silver needles to stimulate his acupoints, gathering all the venom to one location. But someone will have to suck out the venom. Would you…”
Before she could finish, General Wan interrupted, “I’ll do it. 1’11 suck out the venom. Just treat General Liu.”
Jiang Peihuan, familiar with the blunt way military men communicate, said, “Are you sure, General Wan? This venom is potent. Even if you spit it out, it’ll still harm you.”
“It doesn’t matter. If it saves General Liu, it’s worth it,” General Wan replied, cutting her off again.
Jiang Peihuan, unoffended, simply nodded and began her treatment. She quickly inserted several silver needles into General Liu’s body, concentrating on his wrist.
Estimating the timing, she asked Xiao Nanye for a dagger. He handed one over, and Jiang Peihuan swiftly cut a small slit on General Liu’s wrist.
General Wan immediately stepped forward, sucking out the blackened, venom-filled blood from General Liu’s wrist. It wasn’t until the blood turned a healthy red that Jiang Peihuan stopped him, “That’s enough.”
By then, General Wan looked dizzy but anxiously asked, “Queen Cheng, is General Liu’s safe now?”
