“Yes, yes, yes! Young General Bai, let’s get inside the city first…” Wei Zhaonian nodded and made way for Bai Qingyan to enter first.

Bai Qingyan nodded and, holding Bai Jinzhi’s hand, looked at Wei Zhaonian, who had lost an eye… the most strategic general under her fourth uncle’s command. _{fɾēewebnσveℓ.com}

After solemnly nodding to Wei Zhaonian, she entered the city along with the other generals and the injured soldiers of the Bai family army who had come to welcome them.

Since Bai Qingyan was a woman and most military doctors were men, her wound was treated by Bai Jinzhi.

When Bai Jinzhi finished treating the wound on Bai Qingyan’s shoulder, she came out with a basin of bloody water and saw Xiao Ruojiang waiting outside with Doctor Hong.

“Xiao Ruojiang?! Doctor Hong?!” Bai Jinzhi exclaimed in surprise. “How are you in the southern border?! Did you come secretly too?! Did you… sneak into the camp?”

Xiao Ruojiang, carrying Doctor Hong’s medicine chest, saw the basin of bloody water that Bai Jinzhi was holding. He clenched his fingers hidden in his sleeves slightly, saluted politely, and said, “The Eldest Young Lady sent me ahead to the southern border to gather information. We just arrived at Wengshan. When Doctor Hong heard that the Eldest Young Lady had returned to Wengcheng with the Bai family army, he came. I happen to meet Doctor Hong on his way into the camp. Thanks to Doctor Hong, we got in.”

“Is the Eldest Young Lady injured?!” Doctor Hong exclaimed in shock. “Where is she hurt?!”

“Her shoulder is injured, but… the wound is not deep, and the bleeding has stopped!” Bai Jinzhi felt distressed. She turned back and shouted into the room, “Eldest Young Lady, Doctor Hong and Xiao Ruojiang are here!”

“Let them in!” Bai Qingyan, pale-faced, sat in front of the table with the oil lamp, fastening her clothes.

After respectfully saluting Bai Jinzhi again, Xiao Ruojiang entered. “Eldest Young Lady, forgive my incompetence… After retreating to Wengcheng, the city was sealed off, allowing neither entry nor exit! I couldn’t meet you in time!”

“Is the Eldest Young Lady alright?!” Doctor Hong immediately took out a pulse pillow as he entered and signaled for Bai Qingyan to extend her hand for him to check her pulse. “Let me see!”

As Bai Qingyan was a woman and her injury was on her body, Doctor Hong could only check her pulse.

“I’m fine, Doctor Hong!” Bai Qingyan obediently placed her wrist on the pulse pillow for Doctor Hong to check her pulse.

“Thank goodness! Thank goodness!” Doctor Hong breathed a long sigh of relief and joy appeared in his eyes. “This time, I find that the Eldest Young Lady’s cold condition has improved significantly. It seems… my previous advice for you to recuperate quietly was wrong!”

“Why didn’t Doctor Hong stay with the Dong family’s guards and came to Wengcheng instead?” she asked, lowering her sleeve.

“I intended to go to the battlefield to treat the injured soldiers of the Bai family army. Who knew that by the time I reached Wengshan, the Eldest Young Lady had already led the soldiers back to Wengcheng? So I followed.” Doctor Hong put the pulse pillow back into the medicine chest. “I should go check on the other injured soldiers of the Bai family army.”

Seeing Bai Jinzhi come in, she said, “Little Four! Carry Doctor Hong’s medicine chest.”

“Yes!” Bai Jinzhi obediently ran over to pick up the medicine chest, causing Doctor Hong to hurriedly decline.
