Chapter 100 Losing My Innocence If You Mind… I Can Take Responsibility…
“What does that mean? What do you mean by reversing internal energy, and suffering significant internal injuries?”
“I don’t care, whatever prescriptions you have, just write them! … No matter how rare the medicinal materials are, it doesn’t matter, even if I have to go bankrupt, I will cure my son!”
“My son has always been very proud since he was a child. Letting him know that he won’t be able to use martial arts in the future, what’s the difference between that and letting him die? He thinks about making a name for himself every day, he’s almost driven mad. If you can cure him, that’s best! If you cure him, I will reward you handsomely.”
“He’s been unconscious for so long, why hasn’t he woken up yet? Didn’t you say that besides the internal injuries, he doesn’t have any other injuries?”
“What?! You said it was caused by repeated stimulation? What kind of stimulation could he have received?!”
……
What swirled around his ears was his father’s noisy loud voice. Yu Shuli struggled to open his eyes, only to find himself lying on the bed, with bones and meridians all over his body feeling like they were falling apart, unable to move.
“Dad…” The moment he opened his mouth, his voice was extremely hoarse.
Yu Shuli turned his head and saw his own father grabbing a white-bearded old man and getting angry.
That old man’s dress and appearance were of someone from the Imperial Palace.
“Dad… what are you doing!” Yu Shuli saw this and spoke again: “Don’t make things difficult for the doctor, I’m awake…”
“The brat is awake!” Yu Huaxin’s voice suddenly rose, and he dragged the doctor in his hand over. “Imperial Physician… hurry! Take a look at him!”
“This young master’s condition, I have already examined it earlier. Apart from the internal injuries, there are no major problems.”
“Son… do you have any other discomfort?” Yu Huaxin leaned over, pressing his big face against Yu Shuli’s, anxiously saying: “If you feel uncomfortable, you must tell me!”
Yu Shuli shook his head: “It’s just… the meridians in my body ache.”
“What exactly did you and Wei Yan go to do in those deep mountains and old forests?! How did you two end up covered in injuries?”
Yu Shuli frowned, thought carefully, and was a little dazed: “I… don’t remember.”
“Anyway, vaguely, Wei Yan was seriously injured and fell into the water, and I fished him out.”
“You fished him out?!” Yu Huaxin blinked, his face full of disbelief: “Aren’t you unable to swim?”
“I vaguely only remember these things. Specifically, I can’t remember very clearly.”
Yu Huaxin turned his head to look at the Imperial Physician: “Could my son’s brain be broken?”
The Imperial Physician stroked his beard and said, “This is a normal phenomenon. This young master was poisoned with a miasma that blocked his internal energy. Later, he rashly activated his internal energy, coupled with some mental stimulation, it is easy for this kind of situation to occur where he forgets a few small things.”
Yu Huaxin was also a very careless person, and instantly forgot about his son’s nonsense, nodded his head: “It’s good that he’s okay.”
“Imperial Physician, you said, is my internal injury serious?” Yu Shuli tried to activate his internal energy, only to find that it was as dry as a dry well, and he became a little anxious.
The Imperial Physician smiled: “Young master, put your heart at ease, since I have promised to help you recuperate well, I will do my best to help you recover as before. But…” His expression suddenly became a little embarrassed.
“But what?”
“But… this treatment does require the use of some special medicinal materials, which we really don’t have in the Capital City.”
“This…” Yu Shuli was stunned.
He was not unaware of the family’s situation. After his father retired, his salary was greatly reduced, and the family’s expenses were already large, and could not withstand their extravagance.
“Why don’t you… see if there are any substitutes…” Yu Shuli’s awkward words were interrupted by Yu Huaxin’s voice before he could finish speaking.
“You look for them! Use good medicine if there is good medicine! The cost will be on us, we will never short you.”
Yu Shuli was a little hesitant, but Yu Huaxin glared at him: “Little kid, what do you know! The elders worry about money matters, what’s it got to do with you?!”
The Imperial Physician smiled broadly: “Yes… yes… yes… The old general is naturally well-off.”
Seeing that his father had said so, Yu Shuli could not refute it any further, he bit his lip: “However, I really have vaguely forgotten, why did I run into the deep mountains? I remember… Wei Yan also seemed to be injured…”
“Could it be that you and Wei Yan discovered bandits in the mountains, and went to capture them together, but Wei Yan doesn’t know martial arts, and was taken as a hostage, and you fought with them in order to save him?” Yu Huaxin pondered.
“Bandits…?” Yu Shuli’s expression was a little hesitant, “I seem… approximately fought with bandits.”
“Isn’t it? The ground was a mess, all the corpses of fierce bandits, your attack was not light.”
Yu Shuli sorted out the series of events in his mind and connected them together.
So… he took Wei Yan out to suppress bandits, but he put Wei Yan in danger. In order to save people, he accidentally got poisoned, and had to reverse his internal energy, resulting in an internal injury. And Wei Yan was also tortured by bandits, and was dying after falling into the water.
Should… not be wrong, right?
He repeated it again, and got the approval of the Imperial Physician present. “Judging from the injuries on the two of them, what the young master said is true.”
Yu Huaxin also nodded: “The bandits you killed, Dad has already identified them, they are the most fierce group causing trouble recently! You have made a great contribution! Dad will then submit a memorial to ask for a reward for you!”
“Don’t!” Yu Shuli shook his head.
He didn’t know why, but he didn’t want to be so flamboyant.
“Dad…” Yu Shuli raised his eyes, met his father’s already weathered face, and said seriously: “In a few days, when I have recovered from my injury, will you send me to the battlefield?”
“Battlefield?!” Yu Huaxin’s voice suddenly rose: “Why do you suddenly want to go to the battlefield?”
Yu Shuli smiled sheepishly: “Anyway… it’s also idle, I should also make some contributions to the family… to avoid always causing trouble and making you worry.”
“Okay…” Yu Huaxin thought for a while, and said: “Dad will send you to the barracks first, train for a while and see, if it’s okay, then find an opportunity to send you there.”
“Wei Yan… how is he?”
“He…” Yu Huaxin looked away and muttered: “Who knows?”
“Dad!” Yu Shuli glared at him.
“Oh dear, Dad was only worried about you, how could he have time to care about others?!”
“No…” Yu Shuli struggled, wanting to get up, but was frantically held down by Yu Huaxin: “Hey! Where are you going!”
Yu Shuli grabbed the Imperial Physician’s hand: “Please also go and take a look at Wei Yan, he… is very seriously injured.”
“Young master, rest assured… rest assured!” The Imperial Physician patted Yu Shuli’s hand and said: “I already have a colleague who has gone over, you can rest assured.”
“How is Wei Yan?”
“Wei Yan has external injuries, naturally, he needs many days to recuperate…” Yu Huaxin rushed to say.
Yu Shuli refused to give up, staring at the Imperial Physician’s face: “You say.”
The Imperial Physician glanced at Yu Huaxin with some embarrassment, and then looked back at Yu Shuli.
He dared not offend either of these two father and son. “This… Wei Temple Secretary was already weak, and now the whip wounds on his back have turned into pus, and he has a persistent high fever. Whether he can survive it depends on fate…”
“Okay… okay… that’s enough. This brat is still seriously injured and hasn’t been treated yet, saying so much, are all of you in the Imperial Hospital useless?” Yu Huaxin covered the Imperial Physician’s mouth, and smiled at Yu Shuli: “External injuries are easiest to treat, Dad fought those years, you’re not seen skin injuries. Some wounds look terrifying, but they’ll be fine after some rest.”
Yu Shuli’s fingers unconsciously rubbed the quilt, as if he hadn’t heard those terrifying words from the Imperial Physician’s mouth.
Yu Shuli had a memory of Wei Yan’s collapsing appearance and his blood-stained appearance.
Later, he seemed to have said something to himself, and then blood stained his white coat red…
Yu Shuli suddenly closed his eyes, and couldn’t help but hope that all of this was just a nightmare.
“Dad, you go out, I want to rest.”
“Brat…”
“Go out…”
“…Okay, Dad will take the Imperial Physician to study medicine to help you heal.”
Yu Huaxin looked at him a few times, and finally sighed, opened the door, and left with the Imperial Physician.
To be honest, Yu Huaxin felt some resentment towards Wei Yan in his heart. After all, in his eyes, if Yu Shuli hadn’t been trying to save Wei Yan, dealing with a few small bandits would have been a piece of cake. He certainly wouldn’t have needed to reverse his meridians and forcibly activate his internal energy.
But…
That child, after all, is also a miserable child.
He looked behind him: “The cost of seeing a doctor for that kid Wei Yan, you don’t have to notify their family, just settle it with me.”
The Imperial Physician behind him responded: “Hey! The old general is really generous!”
Yu Huaxin sighed, “I hope he can get through this.”
*
When Yu Shuli’s internal injuries were almost healed, Wei Yan was still lying in bed, and he was not awake for long.
Yu Shuli didn’t know why, but he felt inexplicably guilty and never dared to visit.
Until a letter came from Wei Yan’s residence, saying that he was critically ill and wanted to see him one last time.
Only then did Yu Shuli rush over almost madly.
When he entered the door, Madam Wu was waiting bitterly outside the door. Her already sickly body was wiping away tears. When she saw Yu Shuli coming, she forced a smile: “Child, he wants to see you.”
Yu Shuli pursed his lips and explained with a guilty conscience, “I… I was… always healing my injuries, so I didn’t come.”
“Yes.” Madam Wu touched his head: “Go in.”
When he pushed open the door, Yu Shuli’s heart tightened suddenly.
The person he had been thinking about and worrying about was right in front of him, but he couldn’t help but stop at the door.
Wei Yan was lying on the bed, his face frighteningly pale.
He was sickly and sleepy, because the wound on his back was repeatedly infected, so he could only lie on his stomach, and servants would come over to help him move slightly from time to time, turning him over.
A always proud person, but now like a fragile branch can only be manipulated by people, let Yu Shuli looked particularly uncomfortable.
The accompanying Imperial Physicians stood aside, seemingly at a loss, their brows furrowed, and they remained silent.
“What are you all doing here?!” Yu Shuli scolded: “Treating the illness, don’t you know how?!”
“Young master… this… we have to wait…”
“Wait for what!” Yu Shuli opened his mouth, wanting to say something, when he heard a very weak voice: “Ji… An…”
Yu Shuli’s expression changed, rushed over to push the servant away, and supported Wei Yan himself, embracing him in his arms.
“Wei Yan…” Yu Shuli didn’t dare to touch him with force at all, even his voice was trembling: “You… are you okay?…”
“Yes… it’s good that you’re okay.”
“Wei Yan… they said that you’re going to die, and then you wanted to see me one last time…” Yu Shuli’s hand wrapped around Wei Yan, but he didn’t dare to use force, he almost choked out: “Can you… not die…”
Wei Yan coughed a few times and comforted him softly: “Can’t die, don’t worry.”
Yu Shuli wiped away a handful of tears and looked at him: “You… you didn’t lie to me, did you?”
“No.”
“Not a last flash of vitality?!”
Wei Yan sighed: “No.”
“Then why are you scaring me! I was so scared!” Yu Shuli said: “When the servant came to report, I was crying!”
Wei Yan’s ears turned red inexplicably, he turned his face slightly, and changed his posture in Yu Shuli’s arms:
“For so many days, you have treated your life-saving benefactor like this without conscience. It’s been a month, and I can’t even see you?”
“There’s no need to use such dying words to trick me into coming over… I saw the doctors looking helpless, and I was shocked.” Yu Shuli’s face stiffened: “Wait… you said… you are my life-saving benefactor? Didn’t I save you?”
He “hissed” and felt even more ashamed. “I remembered it wrong… I’m sorry.”
Wei Yan lowered his eyes and glanced at him: “The doctors are waiting, that’s because they are waiting for Imperial Physician Yang to come over… He is the most senior Imperial Physician in the palace, and he healed me… I’m already fine.”
“Then your mother is crying outside…”
Wei Yan’s face turned red again: “My mother… she… is crying about something else, it has nothing to do with whether my injury is serious or not.”
Yu Shuli blinked his eyes, his face still hung with tears that had not yet dissipated: “So, I was sad for nothing?”
Wei Yan’s finger hooked his palm intimately: “Ji An… let them go out, I have something to say.”
“Okay.”
When only the two of them were left in the room, Wei Yan was rarely a little embarrassed to push him.
“Ji An…”
“Yes?”
“I did act improperly that day, what do you think?”
Yu Shuli frowned: “What do I think?”
“That is…”
Just as Wei Yan was about to say something, Yu Shuli interrupted him. “Wei Yan, what exactly happened that day, why did I forget so many details? I vaguely remember you and I falling into the water, and you covered in blood.”
He thought for a while and added: “Oh, yes, I also killed a lot of bandits.”
Wei Yan was stunned, “You said… you forgot?”
“Yes, I forgot some of the small details, but I still remember most of them.” Yu Shuli met his scrutinizing gaze and explained: “The Imperial Physician said that it was because I activated my internal energy and was too stimulated.”
“That…” Wei Yan’s expression suddenly became anxious: “You forgot…”
“Forgot what?” Yu Shuli saw his rare nervousness and couldn’t help but lean closer with curiosity.
His eyelashes landed on Wei Yan’s face, making his heart itch terribly.
As if possessed, Wei Yan opened his lips and said: “I kissed… you.”
Yu Shuli’s smile came to an abrupt end.
He suddenly widened his eyes, and then instinctively felt a breath not coming up, and his mind was dark.
Wei Yan saw that Yu Shuli’s hand was holding him tightly, looking like he was having difficulty breathing and full of fear.
He couldn’t help but panic.
“Ji An… what’s wrong with you?!”
Hearing his voice, Yu Shuli only felt more dizzy.
He pushed Wei Yan away, trying to escape, but his legs were as heavy as lead and he couldn’t take a step.
It’s over… he’s not clean anymore…
He was taken away by a man… His innocence… The man is still his good brother… He can’t even take revenge on him.
Wei Yan saw that his expression was not happy, pursed his lips, and said uneasily: “Ji An… it was urgent to save you at that time, if you mind… I can take responsibility…”
Hearing this, Yu Shuli finally couldn’t hold back a breath and passed out.
……
Wei Yan’s residence was in a turmoil again, but this time the one who passed out was the young master of the General’s Residence, Yu.
