Chapter 64: Phoenix Feather Arrow
When he arrived at the tent, Yuwentai saw a stove set up in each corner, and hot water was boiling on the stove. Several maids came and went, some carrying basins of water and some holding clean silk cloths. Some are holding scissors.
Ran Ying was lying on her back on the couch, her hair was sweaty from the pain, and it was wet on her forehead and cheeks. Where the arrow was in her left shoulder socket, her clothes had been carefully cut through a hole. The arrow feather had been cut off, and only half of the arrow was stuck in her shoulder, and the wound had been carefully cleaned by the maid, and the flesh around the arrow wound was slightly turned outward, and the entire left shoulder was swollen high.
Yu Wentai is not strange to this kind of knife wound and arrow wound, and is used to it. At this moment, he saw it on Ran Ying's body, but he felt shocked, as if an invisible hand in his chest was holding one of his hearts tightly.
When she was cutting her clothes and cleaning the wound just now, she moved the wound, and Ran Ying was half unconscious in pain at this time, humming softly.
Yu Wentai walked around to the other side of the couch, sat down on the edge of the couch, grabbed her right hand, and whispered, "Ah Ying, I'm here." It's going to pull out the arrow, it's going to hurt a little, so bear with it. β
Ran Ying opened her eyes slightly, saw that it was Yu Wentai, gasped, and nodded slightly.
The doctor was ready and nodded to a maid next to him. The maid went to the couch and handed over a square piece of white silk.
Yuwentai took it, put it on Ran Ying's mouth, and said, "Bite." β
Ran Ying obediently opened her mouth and bit the piece of white silk.
The doctor's hand gripping the shaft of the arrow slammed into forceβ
"Uh-huhββ!!" Ran Ying bit the white silk in pain and snorted, her face was red because of the pain, visible to the naked eye, and a layer of sweat quickly appeared on her little face.
Yuwentai felt a sharp pain in his heart, and involuntarily grabbed it. Her hands.
But the arrow was still on her body, not moving. Streams of blood poured out of the wound, and the maid on the side hurriedly wiped it with white silk, and in a blink of an eye, two or three pieces of white silk were dyed red.
The doctor was also very nervous. He raised his hand to wipe the sweat from his forehead, stabilized his hand, and exerted force again, this time with more strength than last time.
"Ahββ!!h Ran Ying screamed in pain. Because of the severe pain, I fainted all of a sudden.
The blood gushed even more from the wound, but the arrow remained unmoving.
Several guards waiting outside the tent heard the screams coming from inside, looked at each other, and knew that the situation was not good.
Yuwentai panicked: "Ah Ying! Ah Ying! β
The doctor hurriedly stepped forward to take a look and said, "The girl fainted from the pain." Will wake up after a while. β
Yuwentai was in a hurry, his sword eyebrows were upside down, and he shouted angrily: "What kind of doctor are you!" Can't you pull out an arrow?! β
The doctor was also anxious and afraid, knelt down and said, "Son, forgive me!" I'm afraid this is a phoenix feather arrow! β
When Yu Wentai heard the words "Phoenix Feather Arrow", his heart sank violently. The arrows of the phoenix feather arrows have ridges and wings, and after shooting into the body, they cannot be taken out at all unless the whole piece of flesh and bone is removed. And if he does not pull it out, within three years, he will die of a recurrence of arrow wounds.
Those who have been in the army for a long time understand that there is no fluke in this kind of thing.
When the guards outside heard this, their faces changed, and they thought to themselves, when it was over, they would definitely die.
Yu Wentai stood in place for a while, and asked again in a dumb voice unwillingly: "But there is another way?" β
The doctor fell to the ground and didn't dare to raise his head: "The villain's medical skills are shallow, and there is really nothing he can do." β
Yuwentai was silent for a long time. Everyone in the tent stared at him nervously, not knowing what he was going to do.
Finally, he got up and walked to the outside of the account and ordered: "Send her back to Chang'an immediately, and let the imperial doctor consult her." Hang up in the states and recruit famous doctors who will take phoenix feather arrows. Those who can take out the arrows will be rewarded with ten thousand dollars! β
Then, Yuwentai didn't stop and returned to the big tent in front.
The officials had returned, and they had been on their knees for an hour. Some people are covered with sweat, some people are still raising their sleeves to wipe their sweat, and some people are trembling in two ways.
In order to hide people's eyes, the local government also privately withheld the disaster grain and used the victims to mine it, killing innocent people indiscriminately...... It's lawless!
Yu Wentai glanced at them and said coldly, "I don't know how you feel after visiting this place." β
Silent.
Yuwentai looked at them with a gloomy face, his cruel gaze swept over everyone's faces one by one, and he spoke: "You are all parents and officials of Qinzhou, up to the state and county, down to the county and town, all here. Lone wants to apologize to you, Lone accidentally strayed into the precious land, probably blocking the way of some of you's wealth. β
As soon as these words came out, everyone leaned down deeply, sincerely afraid.
Yu Wentai looked at them coldly and ordered: "Pull out the camp, all go down the mountain to the Qinzhou Governor's capital!" β
By the time Yuwentai and his entourage arrived at the state capital, it was already midnight. After this long and heart-wrenching two days and two nights, Yuwentai was exhausted, but he couldn't sleep standing in front of the window. The maid brought a snack, but he only ate two bites randomly, and when he thought of Ran Ying, who was uncertain about life and death, he couldn't eat a bite.
Thinking back to that time, he didn't know where she got the courage to block that arrow for him. Is it worth it for her to take her own life for this?
He remembered that in Zuoren City, his second brother Yuwenlian had been seriously injured, but in order to save him, he stepped forward to block an oncoming knife for him. At that time, he was twenty-two years old and had just been married for half a year.
After Lian's death, the second sister-in-law was depressed and died of illness in Wuchuan two years later.
After a few years, the third brother Luo Sheng and he were suspicious of Er Zhurong. In order to protect him, Luo Sheng stood up and died.
After that, Daxi also left him.
From then on, he was the only one left in this heaven and earth.
Thinking of the past, Yuwentai only felt infinitely sad. Ran Ying's words rang in her ears again: "Is it worth it?" β
He is still undecided about Princess Gaoping in his private heart, is it worth it for her to do this for him?
Monaro didn't know when he came in, and whispered behind him: "Prime Minister, the carriage and horse that sent Ah Ran back to Chang'an should arrive tomorrow morning." His subordinates had arranged for her to recuperate in Puyuan, and Imperial Doctor Chen would not attract attention if he went there. β
Yuwentai was silent, and for a long time, he said in a dumb voice: "I mistook her." Since she met me, she has been frustrated repeatedly......"
If she had been allowed to marry into the Yu clan at the beginning, she should have lived a stable life with that young man, right?
It was he who brought her into the bloody storm.
Monalo comforted him: "Don't say that, Prime Minister. β
Yuwentai looked back at him, and saw that his eyes were blue and tired, thinking that he hadn't rested since their disappearance.
"You're tired these days, go back and rest." His voice was deep, like the boundless night outside the window.
"The subordinates will accompany the prime minister for a while." Monalo was worried. Over the years, no matter how dangerous and complicated the situation was, he had never seen Yu Wentai so worried and depressed.
The moonlight shone through the window and shone on Yu Wentai's head and face. His eyebrows were tightly knit, his eye sockets were now in the shadow of the bridge of his nose, and his hair was glowing with a layer of silver-white moonlight, as if he had grown old overnight, and his temples were full of frost.
