(391) Joy in adversity

Janine Winsted lifted the curtain of the carriage and was greeted by a spectacular fortress city, none other than Fort Midknight, the capital of the Valstad Empire.

The soldiers on the city walls fired a cannon salute to salute her, and when she entered the city, the citizens of the capital greeted her warmly, and the already crowded and busy streets were blocked by the crowd, and the army was able to continue the colonel

Huge portraits and slogans hang from the buildings on both sides of the street: "Welcome to the triumphant return of our Lady of the Lanterns!" ”

An energetic old general knocked on the window of the carriage and said to Jian Ning: "Lord Lady, the citizens are looking forward to seeing you, do you want to change to an open-top carriage?" ”

"Okay, I'm a little cold, just go out to bask in the sun, please help me out."

Janine Winsted's face was a little pale and weak, and she had been testing on her own body in Flanders City a few days ago, and had almost died of a serious complication from the plague, but her cowpox treatment had proven to be effective, and she was able to save her life.

After sitting in the open-top carriage, Jian Ning stood up and waved to the crowded crowd frequently, which immediately attracted a burst of cheers and thunder, and the streets were filled with petals and colorful flags, and the cheers were like thunder, and the welcome ceremony ushered in the most **.

A Templar friar shouted, "The gods will bless you, Lord Baroness!" ”

An old lady cried and cried, "She saved my family, they all live in Flanders!" ”

A nun with a group of children chased after her: "You and your husband are wonderful people! The Ain Furt Family Poverty Alleviation Fund has funded our orphanage, may the old man bless you kind people! ”

The official welcome procession of the Imperial Family awaited at the end of First Street, where three hundred Imperial Guard salutes surrounded their monarch, Emperor Valstad, Sarantos Midnet.

The Emperor himself walked to the side of the open carriage and helped Jian Ning out of the carriage, and then the Empress knelt down on one knee in front of her:

"As the monarch of this country, I am grateful for your outstanding contributions.

You have saved the lives of 350,000 of your compatriots and set a heroic example for our women in Valstad, who can do any dangerous and difficult work and achieve amazing achievements, as evidenced by your heroic deeds. ”

Jian Ning hurriedly grabbed the emperor's hand, and seeing the other party's one-eyed and one-armed made her feel a little heartbroken: "Your Majesty, I just did what I had to do, I can't afford such praise...... Hurry up. ”

The Emperor stood up and smiled, "There are two gentlemen who are anxious to see you." ”

Two familiar figures slowly walked out of the queue, and Jian Ning's tears immediately welled up, rushing up to hug her husband and son.

"Husband...... And my dear darling! Are you all right? ”

"Mom! I miss you so much! William Einfoot kissed his mother desperately on the cheek.

The Marquis of DalΓ­ only kissed lightly, and then held his wife's hand tightly, and the affection between them did not need to be said.

The warm scene of the family reunion touched the tens of thousands of citizens present.

The morale of the people, which had been in a deep depression due to the defeat of the war, suddenly recovered a lot, and this strong and ancient nation always suffered, but always managed to get out of the difficult situation under the leadership of heroes.

The emperor stepped forward and greeted the marquis's family:

"Your family is all well, after so long separation, go back and get together, especially you, Lord Lady, you look like you're in need of a long time to recuperate."

"I'm afraid I can't rest yet." Jian Ning Road:

"Your Majesty, I listened all the way about Her Royal Highness's injury...... I am the best at surgery, especially the front-line surgery of shrapnel, and I definitely have the most experience. ”

The empress blushed and looked a little ashamed:

"To tell you the truth, I've been looking forward to your coming back to save my life, you can come out for me and really find me a comfortable step down, thank you very much......"

"Your Majesty, I swore in the medical school that saving lives is my life's mission, I like this welcome ceremony very much, thank you for giving me face like this, and next, I must meet with Her Royal Highness the attending physician of the princess to discuss a reasonable treatment plan with everyone."

"Thank you so much, in fact, I had prepared the most desperate plan to set up the woman's ward as an auditorium and prepare for her wedding, just waiting for your mother's consent."

Hearing the emperor's words, Jian Ning was a little confused, (ward?) Wedding? What the hell is going on? οΌ‰

The Marquis of Dali Einfurt approached and said to his wife:

"You've been in Flanders City and don't know these things,

Our William has proposed to Her Royal Highness Princess Edgar, and His Majesty has agreed to the matter, but due to Her Royal Highness's health, he can only prepare a tie in the ward."

The emperor looked even more ashamed, she didn't even dare to look directly into Jian Ning's eyes, lowered her head and said:

"I'm sorry, I'm too selfish, I only think about the happiness of my own children, if you don't agree, I can cancel this engagement at any time."

Contrary to all Rao's expectations, Lady Janening appeared quite calm:

"To be honest, I wasn't surprised at all to hear the news, I knew these two kids were going to come together.

Her Royal Highness Princess Edgar is a warm-hearted and good girl, and when my William was still in a wheelchair, he was always bullied and despised by other peers, and at that time Her Royal Highness took care of him and danced with him at the ball.

Now that they have grown up and have their own careers, and both young people are heroes who fight for their country, since they truly love each other, what reason do I, as a mother, have to refuse? ”

The emperor hugged each other gratefully: "Thank you for being like this, but with my daughter's current condition, it is likely that the wedding and the funeral will not be the same...... It's not fair to your beloved son. ”

Janen Winsted said confidently: "For the sake of this beautiful and sensible daughter-in-law, I also have to do this operation well!" ”

At noon, Jian Ning returned to his office and reconvened his colleagues at the Scaly Medical Research Institute.

These people are all the top elites in the industry, some of them have been rehired, and the rest are not old, but they are all happy and convinced by this young director of the institute, because this lady's medical skills and morality are a model of the country.

At 13 o'clock in the afternoon, Jian Ning led his subordinates to the royal sanatorium to discuss the final surgical plan with the royal doctors, and they were faced with a dilemma;

There were three fragments of the shell left in the princess's body, and the one near the back of the heart was the most deadly.

The sharp iron piece is stuck in the ribs, and if it is forcibly removed, it may cause massive bleeding and death, and if it is not removed, it will cause infection, and the outcome is also fatal.

After two hours of heated discussions, everyone finally reached an agreement, that is, to immediately perform surgery, using tools to cut a whole piece of shell fragments into five parts, and then remove them separately, which is an extremely time-consuming, laborious and extremely demanding work of medical skills.

The royal physician is skilled, but he has little experience in battlefield surgery, so the operation was personally operated by Ms. Jian Ning, the chief military doctor and surgeon in China, and the top experts and professors in the industry were also assisted by the side.

At 15:30 p.m., the sleeping Princess Edgar was wheeled into the operating room.

Waiting outside the door are all the big men of the empire,

Including the Emperor of Salentos himself, the Emperor's eldest daughter, Princess Rosemary, the Emperor's eldest son, Duke Mayer Onassis, a number of important generals, and the Marquis of Ainfurt's father and son, only the crown prince Constance was still in a mental hospital and could not attend.

By 6 p.m., the color had completely dimmed, the kerosene lamps had already been lit in the operating room, and the sound of doctors talking could be heard from time to time.

The Emperor and the Duke of Meyer paced back and forth in the corridor with their hands behind their backs, the others looked anxious, Princess Rosemary knelt down to pray for her sister, and the Marquis of DalΓ­ and his son sat in their chairs without saying a word.

When it was night, the clock showed that it was 23 o'clock, and the people in the corridor had not eaten, and they were all in the tense state they had been before.

Duke Meyer looked at the door of the operating room uneasily: "It's been too long...... Nothing will happen, right? ”

"Good son, don't say those unlucky words, your sister has a big life, and she will definitely be able to survive." The emperor said so, having said that, but in fact, she had no bottom in her heart, and she was already mad in a hurry.

"Poor girl......" Princess Rosemary sobbed, and the Marquis of DalΓ­ handed her a handkerchief.

At 23:47, the door of the operating room was finally pushed open.

Lady Jane Winstede walked out with the help of the crowd,

Her amber eyes were so tired that she could barely open them, and her legs trembled a little, and she took off her mask and took a big breath of fresh air, a sweet smile on her face:

"Your Majesty and my lords, after waiting for a long time, the operation was a perfect success, all three pieces of shrapnel were completely removed, there were no blood vessels or important organs in the mountain, the wound was sutured smoothly, and the rest of the work is to prevent infection."

The corridor burst into jubilation, and several ministers and generals opened bottles of champagne in celebration.

William Einfurt picked up his mother and spun around him like crazy;

"Thank you, Mom!"

"My precious son, you are so strong."

Marquis DalΓ­ hurriedly persuaded: "William, put your mother down quickly, she needs to rest!" ”

The emperor let out a sigh of relief and sat down on the ground, while the duke and his ministers hurried forward to help.

Princess Rosemary Midknight knelt down and bowed to the moon outside the window,

Believing that her prayers had worked, she even swore to the gods to do what she least liked in order to save her sister from her troubles.
