1356 Lives are Precious

"Are the headquarters of those two generals breached?" Kuang Shen asked. If that was the case, these people might get caught in the crossfire. After all, he didn't have the confidence that these groups of people would be able to escape unscathed if they were in the middle of battle.

"No, Master. The army still hadn't breached into Fei Yang Kingdom's territory." The servant hesitated for a moment then added. "We suspected that their cover was blown."

Kuang Shen was speechless.

He only has around 100 of elites that was previously under the ghost doctor. Aside from them, there were only a few experts in both fields, who had become the few whom he trusted a lot.

So far, he hadn't been able to expand much because of the countless troubles.

But now, he seemed to have to put this matter into agenda. Without sufficient manpower and talents, he would not be able to stand on his ground properly and faced them. Also, he had to call some of his allies to start helping him to build his power.

He couldn't let them destroy what he had.

"Leave the frontline be for now." Kuang Shen waved his hand. "Focus on the other matters."

"Yes, Master."

The servant cupped his fist and then left.

Not long afterwards, another servant came, telling Kuang Shen that Princess Luo Qing Wei had come. Kuang Shen immediately stood up and walked out, wanting to see her as fast as possible.

Luo Qing Wei is now 16 years old, no longer looked so young and naïve as she used to be. When she heard footsteps coming, she raised her head and saw Kuang Shen walking in her direction. She showed a bright smile in his direction.

"Senior Brother Kuang!"

Kuang Shen looked at Luo Qing Wei helplessly. "If His Highness heard you call me that way, wouldn't he be angry again?"

The difference in their status made some people didn't want the two of them to get close. It was even more so when they heard Luo Qing Wei calling Kuang Shen as her senior brother.

With Luo Qing Wei's medical capability and also status of her birth, there was no way that these people would let her calling a commoner so politely.

It was precisely because of this that Kuang Shen was eager to take root in Shi Long Kingdom and built his power so that he could be the one standing by Luo Qing Wei's side. It was just that this junior sister of his… never looked at him that way.

He felt somewhat conflicted.

Luo Qing Wei stuck out her tongue. "There's no one here. I'm here to share something with you, Senior Brother Kuang."

"What is it?" Kuang Shen asked.

"I cultivated a new variety of herbs and want you to help me figure out the difference with the ordinary one." Luo Qing Wei smiled sweetly. "I'm not that good at cultivation, so I asked the help of…."

Listening to Luo Qing Wei telling him what she had been doing, Kuang Shen's eyes warmed slightly.

For the past three years, Luo Qing Wei had been staying in Shi Long Kingdom's Capital City. There was no lack of people who wanted to propose marriage, but Luo Qing Wei always gave excuse that she wanted to focus on making medicine and researching herbs.

With her current ability, there was no way the others would be willing to force her.

Thus, the Emperor himself said that she was free to do what she wanted after Luo Qing Wei showed her ability in front of others.

Even those who had been pronounced to have incurable disease could be cured.

It was just that… her stamina was limited.

They couldn't possibly ask her to exhaust herself either. Her patients came from all walks of life and everyone was very courteous in front of her.

Still, those of higher status would be prioritized.

He used to be the one helping her to sort these patients, but now there were more people who were willing to help. With each and every one of them had much higher status than him, making him very frustrated.

"Okay, I will help you." Kuang Shen smiled after Luo Qing Wei finished speaking.

"Thank you, Senior Brother Kuang." Luo Qing Wei smiled happily and clapped her hands together.

Kuang Shen sighed internally. He truly hoped such happy days could last forever.

…

Nan Hua cleaned up the people from Kuang Shen and no soldiers fell sick anymore. The situation looked much cleaner than before. This time, she had just finished an operation because the tip of the spear was stuck inside a man's body. The other doctors didn't dare to operate on him in fear of killing him.

The metal was embedded quite deep, making it hard to pull it out without causing blood loss.

'The alcohol here is not as good as it is in my previous world. But there's nothing much I can do.'

What Nan Hua feared the most was infection because of the equipment here was not sterile enough. She finished the operation and looked at the soldier's comrade who had been waiting at the side nervously.

He brought his friend to the back because he feared that his friend would lose his life.

"I have bandaged his wound. There might be fever tonight, but if he can hold on until tomorrow, he will be fine," Nan Hua explained.

"Really? He will be fine?" the soldier asked with astonishment before relief washed over his face. "Thank you, thank you very much, Doctor Jun."

"We still have to see tomorrow." Nan Hua looked at the soldier seriously.

"Still, thank you very much." The soldier thanked once more and then moved to the other soldier's side. "He's my father and I don't want to lose him so early."

Nan Hua said nothing and watched the soldier waited at his father's side. Given their relationship, he could be excused from his duty for the time being to watch over his father. After all, the treatment for soldier was still quite humane.
