Jiang Shiyun was Geng Shu's female medical officer at Gaoyang Fort. Her medical skills were very superb, and Geng Shu himself had learned from them. When Jiang Shiyun arrived, she saluted Geng Shu and said, "General Geng!"
As she spoke, her eyes naturally fell on Liu Xiu next to Geng Shu. Liu Xiu had three arrow wounds on his chest and lower abdomen, which was really shocking. Even after Jiang Shiyun saw it clearly, he couldn't help but take a breath.
"Medical Officer Jiang, come and see His Majesty's injury!" Geng Shu said urgently.
Jiang Shiyun, whose eyes originally fell on Liu Xiu, suddenly trembled, looked at Geng Shu in disbelief, subconsciously raised his finger to Liu Xiu, and stammered: "He...he is..."
She has never met Liu Xiu, and naturally does not know Liu Xiu. Moreover, Liu Xiu is now dressed as an ordinary soldier. Who would have thought that this wounded soldier who does not look very old could be the emperor?!
Seeing that Jiang Shiyun dared to point his finger at Liu Xiu and dared not to call His Majesty, Luo You's face sank and he shouted loudly: "How presumptuous!"
Jiang Shiyun shivered with fright and knelt down subconsciously. Liu Xiu was still conscious, but her face was a little pale due to excessive blood loss.
He waved his hand to Luo You, looked at Jiang Shiyun, and asked: "I heard from General Geng that your medical skills are very good?"
Jiang Shiyun lowered his head and whispered: "Yes...it's General Geng who praised me!"
"Come and help me raise the arrow!" Liu Xiu said calmly.
"Your Majesty!" Luo You couldn't help but grab his arm.
She was not familiar with Geng Shu, and she was even less familiar with this young female medical officer. His Majesty's injury was so serious that it would be too rash to let an ignorant female medical officer treat his injuries.
As she spoke, she raised her head and looked at Long Yuan, Long Zhun, and Long Bo.
Long Yuan and the other three also looked solemn, but no one spoke. There was no imperial doctor in the army, and the only few medical officers were either brought by Ma Wu or Geng Shu.
Since Geng Shu can recommend Jiang Shiyun to heal His Majesty's injuries, her medical skills must be exceptional...
Long Yuan and the others were unsure, but there really was no other choice.
Liu Xiu saw the worries of Luo You and others, he smiled calmly and said: "I believe General Geng." As he spoke, his eyes fell on Jiang Shiyun again, and he said firmly: "Please Dr. Jiang, please lift the arrow for me!
"
His firm tone was giving Jiang Shiyun confidence. Jiang Shiyun raised her head, looked at Liu Xiu, and then at Geng Shu. The latter nodded heavily to her, indicating that she should be treated quickly.
Jiang Shiyun stood up from the ground, walked up to Liu Xiu, and carefully inspected the injuries on Liu Xiu's body. There were injuries on his head and body, but the most serious ones were the three arrow wounds on his body.
There was a crossbow arrow that looked like it was about to pierce the heart. Of course, it almost pierced the heart, otherwise Liu Xiu would not be alive until now.
After seeing the injuries on Liu Xiu's body, Jiang Shiyun's somewhat flustered expression gradually calmed down and she said, "I need to cut off His Majesty's clothes."
The leather armor on Liu Xiu's body had been cut open, but his clothes had not been taken off. After listening to her words, Liu Xiu smiled slightly at her and said, "You don't have to ask for instructions. Just go ahead and do it." As he spoke, he
Close your eyes slowly.
Jiang Shiyun opened the medicine box, took out a pair of small scissors from it, and first cut off Liu Xiu's coat bit by bit. When she was about to cut off Liu Xiu's underwear, she paused, raised her head, and looked at everyone present.
People were looking at her with big eyes and small eyes. Geng Shu was the first to react, waved his hands to the people around him, and said, "Everyone, please exit the camp first, and don't disturb Medical Officer Jiang's treatment!"
Ma Wu sat down on the ground, with a dark face, and said angrily: "I'm not going anywhere! I'm just waiting here!"
Luo You, Long Yuan, Long Zhun, and Long Bo didn't want to leave anymore. They stood there without moving.
Geng Shu secretly frowned and was about to speak when Jiang Shiyun spoke first and said: "Your presence will distract me. If I am distracted, my actions will be inappropriate and Your Majesty will be in danger!"
After listening to her words, Geng Shu nodded repeatedly and said to everyone: "Everyone should go out and wait!"
Long Yuan, Long Zhun, and Long Bu pondered for a moment, looked at each other, and walked out one after another. When they passed by Luo You, they grabbed her arm and dragged her out. Luo You said urgently: "I won't leave.
,I do not believe……"
Before she could say anything, Long Zhun covered her mouth with his hands and almost carried Luo You out of the tent. Before Long Yuan left the tent, he said to Ma Wu, who was still sitting on the ground: "General Ma
!”
"I won't leave!" Ma Wu said without raising his head.
"Ma Zizhang, do you want to put His Majesty in danger?" Long Yuan asked sharply.
Ma Wu's heart trembled. He raised his head and glared at Long Yuan. Then he looked back at Liu Xiu, whose face was getting paler. Finally, he stood up angrily. He wanted to push Long Yuan away who was standing at the door.
But when he saw several arrow wounds on Long Yuan's body, he lowered his raised hand again. "Stop staring at me. I can't leave!"
Long Yuan withdrew his gaze and limped out of the camp, while Ma Wu turned around and followed him out.
When they got outside, Ma Wu looked at Geng Shu and asked: "Can you find this woman? If your Majesty has any shortcomings, you...even if your elder brother protects you, I will not let you off lightly!"
Geng Shu smiled bitterly and said: "I only know that Miss Jiang's medical skills are definitely better than those of medical officers in the army!"
"It's best this way!" Ma Wu muttered and sat directly at the door of the tent.
Ma Wu didn't dare to lose his temper with Long Yuan, but he dared to lose his temper with Geng Shu. In terms of qualifications, Long Yuan was older than Ma Wu, but in Ma Wu's eyes, Geng Shu was just a little brother, a young boy.
.
Geng Shu was not angry even when he was scolded by Ma Wu. After all, Ma Wu was as famous as the founding father of the Republic of China with his eldest brother, so Geng Shu could bear even being scolded by Ma Wu.
Geng Shu sat down next to Ma Wu and said: "Brother Ma, I am sitting here. If your Majesty really makes a mistake, I will pay for it with my life!"
Ma Wu snorted heavily. Can you afford it? You!
The two of them were sitting at the door of the tent like door gods, while Luo You kept wandering back and forth in front of them. Long Yuan, Long Zhun, and Long Bo were staring at the tent intently.
A medical officer came forward to help Long Yuan lift the arrow, but Long Yuan pushed him away.
In the camp, Jiang Shiyun used scissors to cut open Liu Xiu's underwear. The shirtless Liu Xiu's arrow wounds were also seen more clearly. Jiang Shiyun said solemnly: "A civilian girl wants to shoot an arrow for your majesty, your majesty, please bear with it!"
Liu Xiu did not open her eyes, but nodded slightly, indicating for her to continue. Jiang Shiyun took out a small knife, lit it on the fire, and then slowly cut the flesh near the arrow inserted in his chest bit by bit.
.
Lifting an arrow does not rely on brute force to pull it out. This is a technical job, and it can also be said to be a surgical operation. The arrow has a barb, and pulling it out will not only pull out a large piece of flesh, but may also scratch it.
blood vessels, causing massive bleeding.
Only by avoiding blood vessels and incising the flesh can the arrow be lifted out. Without anesthesia, especially when the injured person is still awake, the process of lifting the arrow is extremely painful. Even standing aside and watching can make people feel uncomfortable.
Feeling sore.
As Jiang Shiyun's knife cut deeper and deeper, although Liu Xiu did not scream, there was already a layer of sweat beads on his forehead.
After an unknown amount of time, with a clang, a blood-stained arrowhead was finally taken out and placed on a plate aside.
As the arrow came out, a lot of blood came out. At this time, not to mention Liu Xiu, even Jiang Shiyun was sweating.
Jiang Shiyun took out a small jar, opened it, grabbed a handful of black ointment from it, and pressed it directly on Liu Xiu's wound. As the ointment applied to the wound, Liu Xiu couldn't help it any longer, groaned, and his body twitched.
A few times.
"This is hibiscus ointment made by a folk girl. It will hurt when you first apply it, but it will get better after a while. Your Majesty, please bear with me!"
When Jiang Shiyun spoke, her hands were still pressing on Liu Xiu's wound. She tilted her head and wiped the sweat beads on her face with the clothes on her shoulders.
Liu Xiu, who had kept her eyes closed, slowly opened her eyes, looked at Jiang Shiyun, and asked in a weak voice: "Jiang...how old is Miss Jiang?"
"Eighteen Women of the People."
"Whose family?" It wasn't that Liu Xiu had nothing to say, but the wound was too painful. He had to say something to Jiang Shiyun to distract him, otherwise he really couldn't stand it anymore.
"Gaoyang Fort!"
"Gaoyang Castle? What is that place? Why have I never heard of it?"
“It’s the abandoned ancient city of Gaoyang!”
"Miss Jiang lives in the abandoned city?" Liu Xiu was quite surprised.
"Yes, Your Majesty! My father originally joined the rebel army. Later, the rebel army was defeated. In order to avoid being pursued by the officers and soldiers, my father took his family and subordinates and fled to the ancient city of Gaoyang. After these years of construction, the ancient city of Gaoyang became the current Gaoyang.
Fort.”
"It turns out that it was after the rebel army..." Almost all of the rebel army in Youzhou were destroyed by his own hands. He looked at Jiang Shiyun and asked curiously: "Don't Miss Jiang hate me?"
"I should thank Your Majesty!"
"oh?"
"His Majesty did not exterminate the rebels, but issued a decree to abandon the rebels who were enemies of the imperial court. The imperial court can forget about it." Without this decree, they would not be able to live in peace even if they were hiding in the ancient city of Gaoyang.
"Speaking of which, His Majesty saved us." Jiang Shiyun said seriously.
"I didn't save you, but you saved yourselves." It is naturally wise to give up the rebel army that is an enemy of the imperial court, but in this troubled world, there is always no shortage of fools.
Some people just don't want to live a peaceful life, they just want to occupy the land and become kings, fight against the imperial court, make heavy promises, deceive the people, and become enemies of the imperial court. If such people don't deserve to die, who should?
Jiang Shiyun saw that the bleeding from the arrow had stopped. She picked up the knife again and said, "Your Majesty, the daughter of the people is about to lift the second arrow."
Liu Xiu closed his eyes for a while, nodded and said, "Let's get started!" When Jiang Shiyun cut the flesh near the arrow wound again, Liu Xiu opened his eyes again and asked, "Is Miss Jiang married to someone else?"
"..." Jiang Shiyun didn't know that the emperor would talk so much and would inquire about other people's private affairs so bluntly. She cleared her throat and said, "Not yet."
"Then why do we need to learn medicine?" The status of doctors in ancient times was different from what it is now.
When people were divided into three religions and nine streams, doctors were ranked in the middle and ninth streams, one level lower than workers, peasants, and merchants. However, in the Han Dynasty, when there were no three religions and nine streams, doctors had an even lower status. They were a dirty profession and not much more noble than women in brothels.
It is extremely rare for a woman to study medicine. It is not much different from a woman falling into a brothel.
That's why Liu Xiucai asked Jiang Shiyun if she was married. If she got married and studied medicine, it would be fine. But if she studied medicine before getting married, would she be able to get married in the future?
Jiang Shiyun could understand the underlying meaning of Liu Xiu's words, and she said: "Because civilian girls like it."
"Your Majesty's heart is big enough." "General Geng also said the same about my father." "..."
When Jiang Shiyun took out the second arrow from Liu Xiu's body, Liu Xiu finally stopped talking and fainted from the pain.
Jiang Shiyun stopped the bleeding and felt Liu Xiu's pulse. It was very stable, not beating vigorously, but not so breathless.
Liu Xiu's physique really surprised Jiang Shiyun. An ordinary person would suffer such a serious injury and bleed so much. Even if he was still hanging, his pulse would be intermittent, but Liu Xiu's
otherwise.
She couldn't help but look at Liu Xiu a few more times, and secretly murmured in her heart, could the person who can be the emperor really be a real dragon emperor, different from ordinary people?
