Little Lord.
Chapter 22 Chapter 22
The Knights Battalion had been taking turns following Jiang Zhuozhuo not far behind to ensure that Jiang Zhuozhuo would not encounter any danger.
Hearing Jiang Zhuozhuo's call, Jude immediately landed to check on the condition of the injured eagles.
Unfortunately, they were just young knights who had just graduated and did not have enough experience in dealing with injuries. Jude suggested: "Take him back first and ask old Ward what to do."
Old Ward is an old knight, who was sent here by the higher-ups to balance the problem of young people in their knight camp. He doesn't need to participate in training or the management of the knights, but he is very experienced. He can tell how to deal with external injuries at a glance.
Jiang Zhuozhuo had never seen many injured people before, so she certainly wouldn't give blind orders in such a situation. She was not in a hurry to see the mushrooms she had been thinking about, and instead followed Jude and his group to fly to the Knights' Camp.
After they arrived at the Knights' Camp with the wounded, Jude even had someone bring back the body of the Winged Horse.
When Old Ward saw the wounded, his face changed. He ordered the wounded to be taken to the infirmary and asked all irrelevant people to leave.
Irrelevant persons include Jiang Zhuozhuo.
Jiang Zhuozhuo flew out obediently.
Jude explained for Old Ward: "He is just like that. I hope Your Highness can forgive his rudeness."
Jiang Zhuozhuo didn't think that the other person was rude. It was not appropriate to have too many outsiders present when treating a wounded patient.
Not to mention that the air cannot circulate due to the crowded environment, many viruses and bacteria that ordinary people can "coexist" with can be fatal to people with exposed wounds, and can cause wound infection if you are not careful.
In ancient times, the sanitary conditions were backward, and the midwife's lack of hand washing could cause pregnant women to be infected with puerperal fever. It was even more undesirable for husbands to enter the delivery room to accompany the mother, as often described in movies and novels. After all, they did not go through the strict disinfection procedures of modern times, so who knows if they would bring in any deadly germs to the pregnant woman?
Jiang Zhuozhuo shook her head and said, "No, we don't know how to save people, so what are we doing in there?" She asked someone to find Maine to get some medical support, and at the same time, she asked if there was anyone in the Knights' Battalion who often assisted Old Ward to come in and help.
Jude took the order and left.
Jiang Zhuozhuo was just thinking about what else he could do when he heard a wailing sound coming from the stable.
She flew over and saw the winged horses of the Knights' Camp surrounding the wounded winged horse and weeping softly. Several older winged horses also bent down to lick the winged horse's cheeks and wounds, as if they were healing it, or praying for it, not wanting it to leave them like this.
Jude came over after finishing his work. Seeing Jiang Zhuozhuo standing not far from the stable and watching this sad scene, he said, "There have been cases of winged horses dying and coming back to life before, so we usually don't abandon their bodies. They are the best companions for knights."
Jiang Zhuozhuo was silent for a while after listening to this, then he pointed at a wound on the winged horse and said, "Maybe we can't let them lick it. You see, there's something wrong with that wound—"
Jude looked over as Jiang Zhuozhuo pointed out, and soon discovered that the blood flowing from the winged horse's wound was... blue!
It's poisoned!
If other winged horses were allowed to continue licking like this, they might also be poisoned and die.
Jude's face changed.
He said to Jiang Zhuozhuo, "Your Highness, go check on Old Ward's situation. I will handle things here."
Although the winged horse's injuries were serious, they were not fatal, so it must have been killed by some unknown poison. Then, was the same poison also the cause of the serious injuries and coma of the knights?
Jiang Zhuozhuo flew towards the infirmary again, and halfway through the flight he met Maine who had hurried over, and Wilder who was with several medical assistants.
Wilder introduced Jiang Zhuozhuo: "These are the doctors I brought with me on board. They may be able to help."
Jiang Zhuozhuo said sincerely, "Thank you." She transformed into a human form and explained to the doctors what she had just discovered. The faces of several doctors on the ship changed. One of them asked for the direction of the stable and rushed there, while the rest followed them to the infirmary.
In order not to add difficulty to the treatment, Jiang Zhuozhuo took the initiative to keep Maine and Wilde outside the door.
Seeing that Jiang Zhuozhuo was quite reliable in dealing with the situation, Wilder had a new understanding of her. He said, "I wonder who these people are."
The Eagles were born good at fighting, and most of the younger generation would enter the Royal Knight Academy. Although Jiang Zhuozhuo's knight camp was mostly composed of male eagles, in fact, the other princesses had more fierce and combative female eagles under their command. Among the male eagles, the only ones who could stand out were those led by the Heitlinger family, mainly because the competition within their family was very fierce, and the ones who were selected were often the most outstanding talents.
Such a leader who is chosen after rounds of selection and training will naturally be more likely to stand out than grassroots knights like Jude who are of common origin.
In his heart, Wilder was a little jealous of Horvel Heitlinger, because even though this man had been trained like an eagle in his family since he was a child, he still successfully grew up to be an upright top knight.
Before the other party suddenly appeared, Wilder had always been the handsome man in the eyes of most girls in the imperial capital and had always topped the list of ideal partners. Once he grew up, many girls said that they felt something was missing from him.
Wilder was very unhappy. He never felt that he was less than others.
Is it that he lacks that integrity? Why do girls nowadays have a sudden change of taste? This kind of guy can neither say nice things nor be considerate.
"You don't think it's Hörveler Heitlinger."
Wilder smiled and discussed with Jiang Zhuozhuo.
Jiang Zhuozhuo couldn't help but glance at Wilder when he heard that.
Wilder asked, "What's that look in your eyes?"
Jiang Zhuozhuo thought of Wilder's generous support to several doctors and decided not to expose his jealousy towards the knight whose name was too long to remember.
O man!
"nothing."
Jiang Zhuozhuo evaded the question with a tone that did not match his heart. Wilde:
This makes you look even more wrong.
Wilder said, "I'm not a stingy person. Just say whatever you think. Aren't we friends?"
Jiang Zhuozhuo said, "This is what you want to hear." She moved towards Maine until she was at a safe distance before confirming with Wilder, "You can't be angry!"
Maine: “…”
I always have a bad feeling.
Wilder smiled and said, "I asked you to say it myself, how could I be angry with you?"
Jiang Zhuozhuo got Wilde's assurance and said boldly, "Then I'll tell you!"
Wilder: “…Okay.”
Jiang Zhuozhuo: "You're so sour."
Wilde: .
In case Wilde didn't understand the meaning of sour, Jiang Zhuozhuo kindly told him the fable of "If you can't eat the grapes, you say they are sour" and "Eating sour food makes people's faces distorted" so that he could fully understand the meaning of the word sour.
That's right, you are jealous of that guy beyond all recognition!
To truly not care about someone is to be like her, not even remembering their name, instead of mentioning them all the time.
Wilder said, "...You can't even remember a name, so there's no need to be so proud." He looked thoughtfully at Jiang Zhuozhuo, who was still on guard against him, and felt angry and amused. You say she's smart, but she's quite naive; you say she's stupid, but she can easily see into other people's hearts.
What a contradictory little kid.
Maine felt a little headache, afraid that if Jiang Zhuozhuo continued to talk like this, he would be assassinated sooner or later. Fortunately, Jude came over at this time, reporting to Jiang Zhuozhuo and Maine with a heavy face: "...The doctor's preliminary diagnosis is that it is 'blue mist', a kind of incurable poison, which will corrode the whole body through the blood, and once poisoned, it is basically useless."
Jiang Zhuozhuo had never heard of this kind of poison, and immediately thought of the several Eagle Knights lying inside.
If they were also hit by this "blue fog", wouldn't their knightly career be over?
How should a warrior who can no longer be a knight continue his life?
Jiang Zhuozhuo couldn't imagine how they would feel when they woke up.
After Jiang Zhuozhuo and the others had digested what had just been said, Jude took out a family emblem that he had taken from the winged horse.
… It belonged to the Heitlinger family.
Jiang Zhuozhuo didn't recognize this thing, but Maine and the others did.
After Maine's words, Jiang Zhuozhuo's eyes changed when he looked at Wilder.
What a crow's mouth this guy is!
She moved further away from Wilder.
Wilder was so angry that he laughed: "What do you mean?"
Jiang Zhuozhuo whispered: "I'm afraid you'll curse me."
You have to be more careful with this ability to curse successfully at once!
Wilder tried hard to convince himself not to bother with such a little brat.
Maine was no longer able to stop Jiang Zhuozhuo from committing suicide. She had to confirm the situation of the knights inside as soon as possible and report it to her superiors immediately.
If anything happened to the Heitlinger family in their Fertile Province, their already bad situation would probably get even worse.
This is not something they should get involved in at all, but since the person is already here, they can only do their best to fulfill their obligation to provide treatment.
At this time, the door of the infirmary finally opened, and old Ward walked out with a tired look on his face.
Seeing that Jiang Zhuozhuo and the others were all there, Old Ward sighed and said, "Let's write a letter to the Imperial Capital, saying that Horvile Heitlinger was seriously injured and was poisoned by the highly toxic 'blue mist'. Let's see if the Heitlinger family can solve the problem."
If not, such a genius would probably become a useless waste even if he was rescued.
As a semi-retired knight, old Ward knew better than anyone present how severe a blow this was to a knight.
If it were him, he would probably just die like this.
Rather than lingering on, it is better to be known as someone who sacrificed his life for the country.
Although Jiang Zhuozhuo couldn't fully understand this feeling, she knew that this was not the time to joke. She said, "Please do your best to treat them. As long as they are alive, there is always hope for recovery, right? If they die, there will really be nothing left."
Old Ward nodded and promised earnestly, "Before the Heitlinger family sends a doctor over, we will do our best to ensure their lives are safe."
Seeing that Jiang Zhuozhuo was in a low mood, Maine gave Old Ward a few words and then invited Wilde to go back to the castle, taking Jiang Zhuozhuo with him.
The maids also heard about Jiang Zhuozhuo saving several injured eagles. Anna immediately brought up the steamed buns and coaxed softly, "Your Highness, do you want to try it to see if this is the flavor you want?"
