Chapter 76: One Survivor
Although the injured man was wearing a black nightgown, many parts of his body were cut by sharp blades, and most of the wounds had scabbed over. It was obvious that his injuries had been treated, but the treatment was very rough.
Probably because he lost too much blood, the injured person is now in a state of half-dead shock.
If left like this, this person would surely die.
Even if he hired a doctor, the medicine of the time was basically useless for such a large-scale injury, and the only thing he could do was to let the injured bear it himself. If he could bear it, he would live, and if he couldn't, he would die.
No wonder Feng Yi said he was alive. With his status, who would care about his life or death if they didn't want to keep him alive to question him?
Song Qingci took out the medicine from the space under the cover of his sleeves, and sent Feng Yi aside to prepare clean water and other things that would be needed later.
Seeing Feng Yi walked to the side to prepare things, Song Qingci reached out and pinched the injured man's mouth, stuffed the anti-inflammatory, hemostatic and antipyretic drugs into his mouth, then pressed the acupoints under his throat with his fingers, forcing him to swallow all the pills.
Then she began to tear the victim's clothes.
"Madam! Madam, let me do it! You just stand aside!" When Feng Yi came over with a basin of water, he saw Song Qingci's fierce operation and his face turned pale with fear. He quickly put down the basin and wanted to take over what Song Qingci was doing.
If the major general knew that his wife had torn off another man's clothes in the secret room, the consequences... he didn't even dare to think about it.
Song Qingci thought he was in the way, so he pushed him aside and said, "Go away, don't get in the way."
In no time, Song Qingci stripped the injured man of his clothes. What caught his eye were sword marks of varying lengths. Some were deep enough to see the bone, while others were just a thin layer.
It can be seen that the fight was quite intense.
Song Qingci quickly washed all the wounds with clean water.
There were so many wounds that one basin of water was not enough. I changed three or four basins of water to clean all the wounds, including the one on my legs.
But Feng Yi refused to let Song Qingci take off the injured man's pants. Instead, he pulled out a dagger and cut off the trouser legs. He did it himself, so he knew where the injuries were. There were only injuries on the tendons of the calves, and there were really no injuries on other parts of the legs.
After cleaning the wound, Song Qingci took out the alcohol and iodine that he had packed in the porcelain bottles of this era in the space to disinfect the wound. Then he applied ointment to promote wound healing. Some deep sword wounds actually need to be sutured, so that they can heal faster.
However, Song Qingci's goal was just to let the person be interrogated alive. Whether the recovery was fast or whether the person would suffer was not within her consideration.
It was already a great mercy on her part that she could help treat the wound and apply medicine.
Finally, Song Qingci temporarily wrapped the person, who was covered in medicine, in white gauze to make him look like a mummy.
There is no other way. He has too many wounds. I can only bandage it like this. Fortunately, it is only on the upper body.
The leg injury in the lower body is actually more serious. The tendons of the feet are severed. There is no such thing as surgery in this era, so even if it is cured, he will be unable to walk.
Song Qingci only wanted to ensure that this person did not die, and did not want to cure him. So she did not care whether the tendons of his legs were broken or not.
After working for a long time, the man's life was finally saved. Now we just have to wait for him to wake up.
"Madam, why don't you go out and take a rest? It's really filthy in here," Feng Yi suggested.
The ventilation in this secret room was already very poor, and now there was blood everywhere, and there were a lot of used things that needed to be cleaned up. Feng Yi felt that it was really a bit of a blasphemy to the lady in such an environment.
"No thanks." Song Qingci waved her hand. She wasn't that pretentious.
She had been in worse environments in her previous life. This was just the beginning.
"You said before that there were two people coming. Where is the other one?"
"Dead. He committed suicide after being caught." Feng Yi answered truthfully. "Originally, he was going to commit suicide, but his subordinates stopped him."
"Okay, I understand." Song Qingci felt that one survivor should be enough.
After waiting for so long, there is finally some movement.
"Tell me what happened last night in detail." On the way here, Feng Yi spoke in a very general way. Now that we have time, we can talk about it in detail.
"Yes," Feng Yi said, clasping his fists and bowing.
"Since the master left Beijing, the defense of the general's mansion has become more strict. One is to protect the wife, and the other is for the people following Li's mother and son. The young general said before that someone would definitely come."
"Indeed, the reason why they drove Li's mother and son from such a far place to the capital was to see who was behind her. Now, they have a clear goal. On the other hand, Li's mother and son are temporarily safe." When Song Qingci said this, Xiaoyuer's cute face suddenly appeared in his mind.
Cough cough... She coughed twice tactically to get rid of the cute little face from her head.
Feng nodded and continued, "The two people last night sneaked into the general's mansion one after the other, and the current one came in later. Originally, I thought they were not in the same group, but when they were besieged, the one who came in front was obviously helping the one who came in later. So I determined that these two people were in the same group."
''What is their purpose?''
"It looked like he was here to steal something. After entering the yard, he didn't stay anywhere else and went straight to the main house," Feng Yi recalled.
It was not him who was on duty last night, it was Feng Er. He joined the battle after hearing the fighting.
"The first one who came had already entered the house, but was forced out by the secret guards hiding inside. After realizing that they could not succeed, the two men wanted to leave."
"Stealing?!" Song Qingci crossed his hands unconsciously, and his two index fingers began to circle each other.
Is there anything to steal in this general's mansion?
Money? Don't be ridiculous. The general's money was basically used for military supplies. Compared with other wealthy families, the expenses of the mansion were much lower.
Power? The most important thing in the General's Mansion is the military token. But the military token is now in her father-in-law's possession, not in the General's Mansion. If you want to steal it, you have to go to Qianfeng Pass to steal it. It is impossible to steal it in the General's Mansion.
Suddenly, an idea flashed through her mind.
He blurted out, "What they want to steal is Li's."
