Chapter 443: You Hit My Child and Still Dare to Ask Who I Am?
Later, the doctor in charge of the medical accounts punished two people, forbidding them from having dinner, and made them apologize to Doctor Zhang.
Those two people's tempers, one more stubborn than the other, especially concerning your matter, make it even less likely they will apologize.
Now we're waiting to receive this punishment.
Receiving punishment...
Jiang Yunchu's eyes narrowed slightly, she leisurely finished her porridge, then set the bowl down.
"Go back to sleep," she said. She didn't say anything else, just arranged a few children.
After a busy day, several children were exhausted; it's the time for them to grow, the army's rations are inferior to the academy's, they lack sufficient sleep—how could their bodies stay healthy?
Jiang Yunchu opened the curtain and strode out of the tent.
"Disrespecting the doctor, shouldn't you apologize?" said the doctor in charge of the tent, an old doctor who is also part of the Kang Clan army and the only one who treats with internal energy.
"Doctor Zhang is right; we disrespected the doctor, so we naturally should apologize."
"Doctor Zhang spouts nonsense; we weren't disrespecting the doctor, merely correcting his worldview—why should we apologize?"
"Moreover, he slanders others; shouldn't he apologize to our dean?" Han Wen Jun smiled lightly, the punishment whip lay aside, yet their eyes remained firm, without the slightest retreat.
"What about you? This matter has nothing to do with you." The old doctor, with drooping eyes, looked toward Kang Zhi Xia.
His identity is no secret in the Kang Clan army: he is the acting general's child, the old general's lineal grandson; usually they also take care of him a bit.
It's precisely because of these people's identities that Doctor Zhang has been swallowing his anger until today.
"It has nothing to do with me?"
Kang Zhi Xia was almost laughing in anger; a medical account meant to save all beings, a place that holds the soldiers' lives, yet there is so much darkness, so much scheming.
"It has nothing to do with him?"
"If punishment is to be given, then give it; why go through all this trouble?" Kang Zhi Xia showed no fear.
Some things can be retreated from.
But some things cannot be retreated from for a lifetime.
Not only because that person is the dean, but also because of inner conviction.
"Fine, since that's the case, then let's move…"
Before he could finish his words, someone opened the curtain, looking at the two children tied to the pillar, and at the uncaptured sneering face—this person was none other than Doctor Zhang?
His appearance really isn't good at all!
"Before taking action, shouldn't we ask about their dean?" Jiang Yunchu swaggered into the room, picked up a whip from the table, and swung it back and forth in her palm.
"Who are you?" the old doctor said calmly, his gaze at Jiang Yunchu somewhat unfamiliar.
"Me?"
Jiang Yunchu gave a cold chuckle: "You hit my child and still dare to ask who I am?"
"They are my disciples; I brought them into the Kang Clan army—what's the problem?"
"Who gave you permission to act?"
If one's own child makes a mistake, any punishment is permissible.
But!
Her child is clearly innocent—why go so far as to bully others?
"They committed…"
Doctor Zhang pointed at the two people tied to the pillar, about to speak, when a whip lashed out fiercely.
"When the Princess Consort speaks, when is it your turn to interject?"
In Jiang Yunchu's eyes gleamed a cold light, her voice as if forged in ice, making people's hearts tremble involuntarily.
Princess Consort…
Princess Consort?
Which Princess Consort?
Not to mention Doctor Zhang being dazed, even the old doctor in charge of the tent is now dazed.
Jiang Yunchu pulled out the white jade hairpin from her head, calculating the time—news of her departure from Jingdu could no longer be concealed; she might as well restore her identity.
Isn't she just trying to rely on her age to sell herself?
Then she wouldn't be considered disrespectful to elders, would she?
"Greetings, Princess Consort." The old doctor who had been sitting steadily just now dropped to his knees.
Many people around him also performed the salute at this moment.
And the shouting Doctor Zhang, his legs trembling, knelt down—Princess Consort? How could that be? How could the Princess Consort come to their frontier camp?
The woman in the center of the great tent, her black hair disheveled, held a bronze token in her hand, inscribed with four characters: Regent Prince's Manor.
She is which Princess Consort—no explanation needed.
"Those who bullied the Princess Consort, I won't rely on strength to oppress the weak—could you explain why you punished my child?"
She sat in a chair to the side, her whole person facing the opposite party.
"They disrespected their elders, they…"
"Disrespecting elders?" Jiang Yunchu seemed to have heard a joke, "Do you count as their elder? Never mind their identities, you are narrow-minded and limited in thought—are you fit to be their elder?"
"Princess Consort, things are like this…" The old doctor couldn't help but speak; today's affair, he hadn't anticipated it would escalate to this extent.
"How things are, I know in my heart; I just don't know whether you are clear about it." Jiang Yunchu interrupted him, the bronze token in her hand spinning like a toy between her palms.
"Tell me, what happened, let the doctor listen." Jiang Yunchu did not turn back.
But Han Wen Jun and Kang Zhi Xia both know that the ones being spoken of are them.
"Yes." The two spoke in unison.
Han Wen Jun spoke clearly and quickly, recounting the situation in full; Kang Zhi Xia on the side added a few details.
"You guys, don't hide anymore." At that moment, Jiang Yunchu suddenly shouted outside.
A teenager opened the curtain, and a group of people walked in.
"Since you said it in the medical tent, there are not a few wounded in the medical tent, and there are plenty of witnesses."
"I actually want to ask, Doctor Zhang, being so impatient, how did you confirm that person couldn't survive?"
On her face was a light smile, exactly the opposite of that Doctor Zhang.
That Doctor Zhang was somewhat trembling.
Even that old doctor's face turned red; how is that completely different from what Doctor Zhang said?
"Reporting to the Dean, we've brought a few witnesses, others are also willing to testify, but we need stretchers to carry them over." At that moment, Ning Qiancheng and Kang Wu arrived.
They had just split into two groups; a group of people, fearing the Dean would suffer a loss, hurried over.
Another group went to find witnesses.
"Let's just take these few for now; if needed, let the old doctor go listen himself, don't think we're threatening them." Jiang Yunchu gave a cold smile, and the old doctor's face flushed even more.
"I can testify that Doctor Zhang spoke ill of Doctor Zi Wei first, and then said unpleasant things, before Little Han spoke up."
"I can testify as well."
"I heard it too."
These soldiers have their own sense of right and wrong; would a doctor with poor medical ethics really treat them wholeheartedly?
