Chapter 91: Chapter 70: Clearing Suspicions, Emotional Turbulence_3

Little Wu looked extremely worried.

He suddenly knelt down forcefully, "Please, Eunuch Li Wenrui, go back and beg the Empress Dowager to send the Imperial Physician to treat the Prince."

Li Wenrui glanced at Little Wu on the ground, then at the wound on Xiao Jinxing’s back, and hurriedly said, "The Empress Dowager is indeed worried about the Prince, which is why she sent this servant specifically to check on the Prince’s condition. As for the Imperial Physician, the Empress Dowager did not send one with this servant, but she did send something for the Prince."

Xiao Jinxing and Little Wu both looked at him.

Li Wenrui took out a box of rosin ointment again.

Little Wu seemed very surprised and boldly said, "Eunuch Li, it had no effect when the Prince used it last night. Even if you give the Prince another box, it will be of no use."

"The Prince should be very clear about the Empress Dowager’s painstaking efforts." Li Wenrui did not respond to Little Wu, but instead told Xiao Jinxing word by word.

Xiao Jinxing nodded, "This Prince understands."

Having served so many years by the Empress Dowager’s side, Li Wenrui had been involved in everything she did, and he had watched the Prince grow up since he was a child. He knew very well what kind of person the Prince was.

With just a hint of that.

The Prince must have understood everything.

"The Empress Dowager also has a message for the Prince," said Li Wenrui, "The Prince bears great responsibilities and must not waver emotionally. Please, Your Highness, correct any faults if there are any, and be more diligent otherwise."

"This grandchild will scrupulously follow the Empress Dowager’s teachings."

"This servant shall not delay the Prince’s treatment any longer. This servant takes his leave."

"I appreciate your efforts, Eunuch Li."

"It is this servant’s duty."

"Little Wu," Xiao Jinxing’s eyes flickered slightly.

Little Wu immediately understood.

He took out a pack of silver from his sleeve and handed it to Li Wenrui.

Li Wenrui made a pretense of refusal twice, but still accepted it.

After sending Li Wenrui off, Little Wu tightly closed the door.

Ye Qichi had also come out from beside the bathhouse with Lu You.

She saw Xiao Jinxing enduring his pain.

They had somehow muddled through the situation.

She told Little Wu, "Bring some clean water over and reapply the medicine."

"Yes."

Ye Qichi sat by the bed, took a clean sweat towel, and began cleaning off the ointment she had previously applied to Xiao Jinxing.

"Little Wu, get your Prince to bite on a cloth," Ye Qichi instructed.

"No need." Xiao Jinxing’s voice was hoarse from pain, but he still rejected the offer outright.

Ye Qichi glanced at Xiao Jinxing.

Then, she chose to remain silent.

The bedchamber was eerily quiet.

If one had not witnessed it with their own eyes, they could never have known just how bloody the scene in the chamber was.

"The sterilized dagger," Ye Qichi ordered.

Little Wu immediately prepared it.

After spending a night cooperating with the Princess, a silent understanding had formed.

"Some of the flesh has decayed; I need to clean it thoroughly," Ye Qichi warned Xiao Jinxing in advance.

She was reminding him, asking if he wanted to bite on the cloth.

Xiao Jinxing replied with a grunt.

Then, Ye Qichi took the dagger and began to clean Xiao Jinxing’s wounds anew.

Xiao Jinxing was in such pain that his body tensed up.

Yet, for her to clean his wounds better, Xiao Jinxing did not move at all.

Even as his muscles instinctively trembled, there still wasn’t the slightest twitch in his body.

Ye Qichi sped up her work with her hands.

Last night, Xiao Jinxing was in a semi-conscious state; cleaning his wounds was almost like having natural anesthesia.

But now, being fully conscious, he must have been in tremendous pain; of course, Ye Qichi knew.

As a doctor, she still upheld the benevolent heart of a healer.

It was her duty to lessen the patient’s suffering as much as possible.

Her skilled hands finished cleaning up the wound on Xiao Jinxing.

Little Wu was left staring, utterly dumbfounded.

Once the wound was clean, Ye Qichi carefully applied the rosin ointment a little at a time.

This box of rosin ointment was clearly entirely different from the previous one.

Furthermore, she smelled the formula of this ointment; she had to admit that its efficacy was definitely more than double that of ordinary ointments.

As expected, with regular application, it should be healed in no more than half a month.

After bandaging Xiao Jinxing, Ye Qichi said, "That should do it."

By that time, Xiao Jinxing was already in so much pain that he was covered in sweat.

"Little Wu, help Xiao Jinxing wipe down his body, but don’t touch the wound, and make sure no water gets into it," Ye Qichi instructed.

"Yes, Princess."

"After the house doctor has decocted the medicine, make sure he takes it to prevent another fever and to help reduce inflammation."

"Yes."

"If you need anything else, come and call me. I’m going to rest in my room for a while." After giving her instructions, Ye Qichi planned to leave.
