Quick Transmigration: The Cannon Fodder is Very Leisurely

Chapter 512 Cannon Fodder Concubines in the Deep Palace 75

After the meal, Yu Nuan chatted with Shen Yan about the medicinal herbs.

"Miss Jiang, as for the medicinal herbs, I will find a way to have them transported over. There is still quite a lot of stock in the warehouse."

"That's good."

Not long after the meal, Zhao Yi rushed in, his face grave. He approached Shen Yan and said in a low voice, "Your Highness, our scouts have reported that the Northern Rong army is heading this way."

"How long until we arrive?"

"It takes about half an hour to get there, which is about 20 li outside the city."

"Your Highness, please go ahead and attend to your business!" Yu Nuan also heard Zhao Yi's words.

Shen Yan gave Yu Nuan a deep look. He knew that he had to lead his troops into battle today, and it would be a tough battle. He didn't know if he would have a chance to come back.

Just as Shen Yan was leaving, Yu Nuan called out to him, "Your Highness, be careful and return safely."

Shen Yan smiled brightly and earnestly promised Yu Nuan, "I will definitely return safely."

Watching Shen Yan's departing figure, Yu Nuan couldn't quite describe her feelings. She felt a tightness in her chest, perhaps due to the cruelty of war, which she understood even though she hadn't experienced it firsthand.

"Qi Heng, how are you feeling today?"

Yu Nuan arrived at Qi Heng's room. Qing Yi had already fed him. Yu Nuan inquired about Qi Heng's condition.

"Yu Nuan, I feel much better. I'll rest for a day today and be fully recovered by tomorrow. Then I can go back to battle."

"You should focus on recovering from your injuries before we talk about going to the battlefield!" Qingyi glared at Qi Heng.

Yu Nuan realized that the two of them had fallen for each other at some point, and that she might have to prepare Qingyi's dowry after the war was over.

Yu Nuan is not the kind of master who must keep people by her side. If Qingyi can find her own happiness, Yu Nuan will let her go and sincerely offer her blessings.

"Alright, let me take your pulse." Yu Nuan smiled.

Qingyi moved a stool to the bedside, and Yu Nuan sat down to carefully examine Qi Heng's pulse.

"The poison has been completely cleared, leaving only the wound on your shoulder. Qi Heng, listen to Qingyi and rest well. We'll talk about going to the battlefield once you've recovered. Otherwise, with your current condition, you'll collapse before you even get there."

After taking Qi Heng's pulse, Yu Nuan said this.

The woman in green chimed in, "That's right, General Qi, listen to my young lady."

"Miss Qingyi, didn't I tell you that you should just be like Yu Nuan and have me, Qi Heng?" Qi Heng frowned, not quite satisfied with Qingyi's way of addressing him, when he heard Qingyi still calling him General Qi in a distant manner.

Yu Nuan glanced at Qing Yi teasingly. Qing Yi saw the teasing in Yu Nuan's eyes and blushed with embarrassment. She quickly said, "I'm going to brew the medicine."

After Qingyi left, Qi Heng said to Yu Nuan with a worried expression, "Yu Nuan, it's not that I'm anxious, it's just that the Northern Rong people are at the city gates. To be honest, I'm not confident. Our forces are not as strong as theirs."

Yu Nuan knew Qi Heng's anxiety, so she said, "Listen to me, I will make you completely better in three days."

"Really?" Qi Heng was overjoyed, believing that Yu Nuan could keep her word.

"Mm." Yu Nuan nodded.

Yu Nuan plans to add some medicinal herbs from her spatial storage to Qi Heng's medicine to double its effectiveness and make the wounds heal faster.

Listening to the sounds of fighting outside, Yu Nuan lowered her head, her heart heavy.

"Dr. Jiang, do you think this prescription is correct?" Zhou He held up the medicine he had prepared and asked Yu Nuan to take a look to see if there were any problems.

Zhou He acted quickly. After Yu Nuan gave him the recipe for a quick-healing medicine, he immediately found the medicinal materials and began to make the medicine.

Yu Nuan glanced at it briefly, saw no problems, and said, "Okay."

Today, Yu Nuan also joined the military medical team to treat wounded soldiers. The other military doctors had heard about Yu Nuan's previous deeds and knew how capable she was, so after Yu Nuan arrived, everyone respected her very much and did not look down on her because of her young age.

With Yu Nuan joining the team, the speed of treating patients has increased significantly.

After an unknown amount of time, the sounds of fighting gradually subsided. Yu Nuan stood on the city wall, gazing at the distant battlefield. Corpses lay strewn everywhere, and the stench of blood was overwhelming. Yu Nuan and Qingyi had never seen such a bloody scene before, and they couldn't help but vomit in the corner of the wall. They hadn't eaten much at noon, so they couldn't vomit anything.

Seeing Yu Nuan in such distress, an old military doctor said with heartache, "Dr. Jiang, you should take the girl in green back! The battlefield is bloody and terrifying; I'm afraid you two young girls can't handle it."

"It's alright, Dr. Zheng, we can manage."

Yu Nuan tried hard to suppress her fear, constantly telling herself that everything was alright and she wasn't afraid.

After defeating the Northern Rong people, Shen Yan was so exhausted that he could barely stand up. He only managed to stay upright by relying on his sword. Zhao Yi could see Shen Yan's exhaustion and wanted to help him up, but Shen Yan brushed him away and said in a hoarse voice, "I'm fine. Clean up the battlefield."

The Northern Rong people were toying with them. Although they were repelled again, they did not suffer serious losses and will surely come back again.

Yu Nuan followed the military doctor out to check the wounds of the lying soldier.

When Shen Yan turned around and saw Yu Nuan following him out, he immediately became extremely anxious. Ignoring his own exhaustion, he rushed to Yu Nuan's side. Because of his urgency, Shen Yan had a stern face, which was quite intimidating. After arriving at Yu Nuan's side, Shen Yan used his own body to shield her from the bloody and brutal battlefield behind him.

He said sternly, "Why are you here? Go back now." The anxious concern in his eyes was undisguised.

Yu Nuan was about to bend down to check on the injured person when she was suddenly pulled up by a force. Before she could see who it was, she was a little confused by the questioning tone.

Shen Yan was a full head taller than Yu Nuan. Yu Nuan's view was blocked by a wall, so she had to look up. Just as Yu Nuan was about to retort, she saw the worry and concern in Shen Yan's eyes and couldn't say anything.

"Jiang Yunuan, this is not a place for you. Go back to the city immediately." Shen Yan was worried and called Yunuan by her full name.

Yu Nuan didn't want to argue with Shen Yan too much, so she patiently explained, "Your Highness, I am a doctor. No matter where I am, I must do my duty to treat the injured."

Seeing Yu Nuan's stubborn gaze, Shen Yan wanted to continue persuading her, but in the end, he opened his mouth but couldn't say anything. Shen Yan still wanted to make one last effort, saying, "The horrors of the battlefield are not something you can bear."

“I can do it, Your Highness. I need to, and I must be able to,” Yu Nuan said stubbornly.

Shen Yan knew he couldn't persuade him, so he could only slowly let go and said helplessly, "If you can't accept it later, tell me."

"Mm." Yu Nuan nodded, and after Shen Yan released her, she rushed towards the wounded soldier.

That day, Yu Nuan treated countless wounded people, and in the end, she numbly gave her wounded soldiers acupuncture to stop their bleeding.
