Zhao Defang's road to the virtuous king

"Yes, my lord, you have a good rest, and you will come over early or late tomorrow morning." Jiajun and Chongming withdrew, and Defang said, "Shan En, don't stand there, go get your quilt and spread it on the floor beside the bed, so that you can sleep at night. If there is anything I need, I can wake you up."

"Yes, my lord!" Shan En hurried to get the quilt and spread it, sat cross-legged on it and looked at Defang, Defang turned to look at Shang En and said with a smile, "If you look at me like this, I won't be able to sleep, lie down." , talk to this king."

Shan En lay down a little uneasy, talking with De Fang, and Shan En's emotions gradually relaxed a little, and not long after, De Fang and Shan En fell asleep.

In the early morning, the imperial guards had all been rectified, Jia Jun walked into the tent lightly, woke up Shan En to pack his bags, Jia Jun helped Defang to sit up slowly, Chongming brought a bowl of porridge for Defang to eat, Jia Jun saw that Defang's legs were more swollen than yesterday, and he looked very weak, so he quickly motioned for Shan En to call the medical officer. The medical officer checked Defang's injury, stepped aside and said softly to Jia Jun, " General Song, the lord's leg injury is very serious, there is too much bruise in the swollen area, if you don't clear it out, the leg may be useless in two days."

Hearing this, Jia Jun was shocked, and turned to look at Defang who was lying down. Chongming was wiping his sweat, so Jia Jun hurriedly dragged the medical officer out of the bed tent, "What should we do then? The prince's leg must be fine! Is there no other way?"

"This..." The medical officer was a little afraid to say

"You have a way, don't you!"

"General Song... this... I do have a solution, but... my lord... I dare not..."

"What? What do you mean by that? Make it clear!"

"General, if you want to remove the blood, you have to scrape the blood out of your legs, but the prince is a noble person, how dare you use a knife on the prince..."

"What are you talking about! You don't dare to cut your mouth and bleed, do you want to watch the prince's legs crumble!"

"No, no...but...the lower officials dare not..."

"But what! You don't dare, Ben will come! You just need to say where to cut your leg, and Ben will do it!"

"General, this is disrespectful!"

Jia Jun grabbed the medical officer by the neckline, "What etiquette and taboo are you talking about at this time! No matter how disrespectful it is, it's better than losing your legs and losing your life!"

"Official...official..."

"If you continue to talk and miss the prince's injury, I will kill you with one knife!"

"Yes, yes! The officer obeys!"

Jia Jun took the medical officer back to the tent, Defang turned to look at the medical officer and asked, "Medical officer, why do my legs feel swollen and numb now, and how is my injury?"

The medical officer looked at Jia Jun, Jia Jun frowned at him, and the medical officer replied, "My lord, there is blood in the wound, I need...need..."

"what do you need?"

The medical officer swallowed. "Need to... in... make a cut on your leg... cut and scrape blood..."

"Cutting and scraping blood?" Defang said, "How to cut and scrape blood?"

"Going back to the lord, it is to cut a small incision at the bruise, and then scrape out the stagnant blood along the veins of the injured leg."

"Bold!" Chongming stepped forward and said, "How many heads do you have if you dare to use a knife on the prince's body!"

Hearing this, the medical officer was so frightened that he wanted to kneel, Jia Jun grabbed him and said, "Chongming, the lord's wound has congested blood, if you don't clear up the swelling, it will become more serious, and there may be..." Jia Jun said After a pause, Defang understood Jia Jun's meaning, so she said, "Chongming, the medical officer knows best how to heal the wound. The quickest and most effective way is to clear the blood accumulated on the wound and scrape the incision. The same is often true of medical officers treating wounded soldiers."
