Chapter 204
Doctor Wu didn’t know that Lin Chujiu had already guessed Xiao Tianyao’s plan . So in order to persuade her, Doctor Wu cracked his brain to describe the tragic life of front-line soldiers .
“Wangfei, you don’t know how those 300,000 soldiers were living bitterly in the hands of the emperor . Eminent Xu was fair and won’t deliberately sacrifice them all, but the people above those soldiers treat them bad and unfair . They only have given them the worst armors and weapons . ”
In order to make Lin Chujiu understand the situation of the 300, 000 soldiers in the war, Doctor Wu explained the situation with further details: “Those soldiers have a sword in their hands, but the blade can’t even penetrate through their enemies armor . It can’t cut . The spears in their hand also easily get breaks . How will those soldiers successfully kill their enemies on the battlefield?”
“The armor they wore was the old armors from the previous years of war . The armor that Wangye had specially created for them was taken by the emperor and was given to his own soldiers . The emperor let them wear the old and tattered armors . Fortunately, it’s not winter . Otherwise, who knows how many of them will die from colds . ”
When Doctor Wu said those words, his eyes become red: “Wangfei, I admit I came to you because Wangye has ordered it . But, I followed because I also want to do something for them . I didn’t go in and out in the barracks like them . But, most of those soldiers called me, grandfather . Many of them were only 16 and 17 years old . I treated them like my own grandchildren from the bottom of my heart . So, I will not be sad if they died fighting on the battlefield protecting our country . I will feel proud of them . However, if they died only because of lack of proper armors, weaponry, and medicines, I really cannot accept it . ”
Doctor Wu didn’t hesitate to show his sadness and despair . He also didn’t care about losing his face in front of his apprentices and just sat on the floor: “Wangfei, you don’t know how cruel the emperor is . People say our emperor was not hungry in power, but actually, he was very hungry . There was a total of 500, 000 soldiers on the battlefield . But only his 200, 000 soldiers eat well every day . Only his soldiers have the latest armors and sharpest weapon . But, they only stay on the rear side, waiting to get the glory . ”
“On the other hand, Wangye’s 300,000 soldiers have tattered armors and useless weapons . They also don’t have enough foods . They only eat three bowls of porridge every day . With such a harsh condition, how could they even wield the weapon in their hands?“
“Once the battle was over, the emperor’s 200, 000 soldiers only has small injuries . But the doctors treated them well and give them wound dressings . The herbs were also constantly used by them, even though nobody even experiences a broken leg . While Wangye’s soldiers, they cannot get any medicine . As if it means, if they survive, they were lucky . But if they died, they deserve it . ”
“Wangfei, you don’t know this, but the pile of corpses buried in the pit of the barracks . They were Wangye’s soldiers that didn’t get a timely treatment . They didn’t get any medicine, so they died . They shouldn’t have died… …”
When Doctor Wu said those words, he began crying . The several apprentices on the side also began sobbing… …
Lin Chujiu admits that her heart become soft because of Doctor Wu’s words, but… …
A batch of medicine to treat those 50,000 injured soldiers?
“This thing, let me think about it . ” It’s not that Lin Chujiu doesn’t want Doctor Wu to accomplished his task, but she was scared of her own situation . So after saying those words, she left in a hurry .
“Wangfei, Wangfei…” Doctor Wu busily chased after Lin Chujiu . But, Lin Chujiu walked fast and disappeared .
At night, Zhuangzi was extremely quiet . There were no lights everywhere . The forest turned the outside, a place that no one can go to . So, Lin Chujiu reluctantly returned to her room .
Inside the room, Xiao Tianyao was already waiting for her to come . He just finished bathing, so his long hair was untied . The dim light of the candle made his cold atmosphere look warmed . Under the candlelight, Xiao Tianyao’s eyes also look a bit soft than usual .
Pretty handsome face, soft thin lips, calm and gentle eyes, noble and graceful behavior… …
This man looks so damn good!
Xiao Tianyao’s deep eyes made Lin Chujiu’s heart beat so fast, and she couldn’t help but utter: “Wangye,” She knew that this man would be staying in this room .
And tonight, she can’t hide .
“Your back . ” Only simply words came out from his mouth, but a person couldn’t help but feel warm .
A man who was overbearing, cold and proud, occasionally showing his gentle side can really intoxicate a person .
“Mmm, I’m back . ” Lin Chunjiu admitted that she was hopeless . Facing Xiao Tianyao’s rare tenderness really made her forgot that he almost killed her . And she couldn’t lose her temper right now .
“The hot water is ready, go and take a bath . ” Xiao Tianyao’s tone was not strong, but a person couldn’t help but follow .
There was no other person in the room . Lin Chujiu could only serve herself and take a bath . Well, she really doesn’t need someone to serve her .
Lin Chujiu’s hair was long and thick, her towel cannot absorb water, so she had no choice but to wipe her hair for a long time . But still, her hair was somewhat wet .
Lin Chujiu was not lazy, nor impatient . But, she really doesn’t want to spend the rest of her time wiping her hair . Anyway, now the weather was warm, it will eventually dry after an hour .
Lin Chujiu returned to her room with a wet hair . Xiao Tianyao who stayed in his original position looked up and saw her appearance . Then, he frowned his eyebrows and ask: “Why you didn’t dry your hair?”
The water from Lin Chujiu’s hair wet her coat and got affixed to her body . Exposing some things that shouldn’t be exposed . Lin Chujiu didn’t notice it, but Xiao Tianyao saw it at a glance .
Is this woman trying to seduce him?
In fact, she doesn’t need to do this . As long as Lin Chujiu speak her mind, he can consider cooperating with her .
“I’ll wipe it later . ” Lin Chujiu was not used staying in the same room as Xiao Tianyao . Fortunately, she was wearing a long ancient dress, otherwise, she will be more uncomfortable .
Forget it, I’ll go outside!
Lin Chujiu ignored Xiao Tianyao’s existence . She took an outer coat in the wardrobe, put it on and ready to go .
“Where are you going at this late hour?” Xiao Tianyao turned his wheelchair and stopped in front of Lin Chujiu . His black eyes showed a hint of disappointment .
Lin Chujiu didn’t look at Xiao Tianyao, and only whispered, “I’ll go out to wipe my hair . ”
A person needs to go outside to wipe her hair? Is he an idiot to believe that?
Xiao Tianyao pointed his finger at the dresser and said with displeasure: “Sit down!”
“Huh?” Lin Chujiu thought she heard wrong, so she looked down at Xiao Tianyao .
Xiao Tianyao’s eyes look so gentle to the point she felt like drowning .
She felt like, in Xiao Tianyao’s eyes, she was like an unreasonable child . Causing endless trouble . But Xiao Tianyao was willing to accommodate all her willfulness…
This feeling is terrible .
