Cai Wei said, "Aunt, don’t worry, we just argued a bit, it’s nothing serious."
After hearing this, Du Meiren softly said, "Wei’er, it’s not that your Aunt wants to meddle in unnecessary affairs, it’s just since you’re inevitably going to marry him, you should be more gentle and avoid annoying him. Don’t you see how awful he was when he was angry just now? What if he lost his temper and, unable to control himself, ended up hurting you? What then?"
"I will remember, Aunt!".
Cai Wei obediently agreed. Enduring the throbbing pain in her leg, she returned to her Western Room.
As soon as she entered the room, she closed the door, took off her underpants, and examined her injury.
On her fair and delicate leg, there were five deep purple-red finger marks. The surrounding skin was a purple-green hue and was severely swollen. This formed a stark contrast with the five dirts indented, creating a horrific visual contrast. It looked very gruesome.
Cai Wei carefully prodded the indented flesh and skin, only to discover a loss of sensation! However, when she touched the swollen area, she felt excruciating pain!
This savage brute was too heavy-handed. She wasn’t sure if this would lead to necrosis of the muscle.
Not daring to take any risks, Cai Wei let out The Great Immortal Turtle to help her take a look.
After prodding Cai Wei’s wound with his paw, The Great Immortal Turtle sighed, "It’s fortunate that I’m here. If it were any other doctor, they wouldn’t have been able to save this patch of your skin!"
Upon hearing this, Cai Wei couldn’t help but become fearful. If her smooth jade-like leg had such a grotesque and terrifying scar, she would go mad!
The Old Turtle returned to Space to prepare her treatment, and Cai Wei told him to prepare the medicine for treating her grandmother’s eyes at the same time and have Brother Parrot send it to Grandmother.
Not long after the Old Turtle entered Space, Yao Yuanpan from the Imperial Medical Institute arrived with a female doctor at Qingfang Garden. He greeted Du Meiren with respect and stated that he was sent by the Great Prince of Liaodan Kingdom to give Princess An Le a peace pulse reading.
Cai Wei understood- the peace pulse reading was a ruse, they were actually here to examine her injury. So, she calmly stretched out her hand and let Yao Yuanpan check her pulse.
As Yao Yuanpan checked her pulse, a grave expression gradually appeared on his face.
After checking her pulse, he folded away the silk scarf and turned to the female doctor, "Doctor Feng, could you please examine the princess’s leg injury." He then stepped out.
Doctor Feng closed the doors and windows, and then walked back to Cai Wei’s couch.
"Your Highness, would you kindly undress so that this humble servant can check your injury?"
Cai Wei did not refuse, she brazenly removed her underpants, revealing the wound on her leg.
As Doctor Feng saw the gruesome wound on Cai Wei’s leg, she was so shocked she could hardly speak, "This... was it really... caused by a pinch?"
Cai Wei gave her a faint look, "Yes it was. Also, I’ve lost all sensation here, it seems to be necrotic... it’s beyond treatment."
Suddenly, Doctor Feng’s face fell. She looked completely desolate, Saknu had warned them that if they were unable to treat Princess An Le, they would lose their heads.
However, it was evident that the Princess’s skin had necrotized. How were they supposed to treat it? Even if Hua Tuo were still alive, he wouldn’t have been able to cure necrotized muscle either, would he?
Doctor Feng exited the room dejectedly and broke the bad news to Yao Yuanpan. The two talked in hushed whispers for quite a while outside before leaving dejectedly.
Once they left, Cai Wei took out the medicine for her grandmother from Space. She divided it into edible and topical medication and carefully wrote down the methods of application and ingestion. She then sent Brother Parrot to deliver the medicine to her father’s restaurant.
