Chapter 442: Chapter 442 Punishment(1)_1

After a girl matures into a woman, she will have her first menstrual cycle. In Cai Wei’s era, even children as young as eight to ten years old knew about this, yet Nangong Yi, the legitimate heir to the throne of the Great Jin Nation and His Highness, King Qin, truly had no idea that such a thing could happen to women!

Ever since he had become aware of his surroundings, he had been busy learning literature, military strategy, managing people, and how to evade the conspiracies and assassinations of Jin Guifei’s party, and many other things that would be useful in the future.

The burden on him was too heavy. There were too many things to do and as a result, he had never devoted energy to observing women or exploring the differences between men and women.

Additionally, he was overly proud and haughty, dismissing the women who flung themselves at him. He had never expended mental effort on women, and thus, he had never known about menstruation in women when they reached a certain age. No one had dared to speak to him about such unsavoury matters.

So, when he saw Cai Wei’s menstrual blood, he was distressed and thought that she was injured. He even resented Zhao Yang in his heart, blaming her for injuring his little girl.

At the same time, he deeply blamed himself for his recent actions. She was hurt and losing so much blood. He hadn’t taken proper care of her but had insisted on dragging her so far and forcing her to reject Huo Yuan...

He really had wronged her!

Feeling guilty, he frantically brought out the hemostatic meds and poured them into his palm, intending to apply them to her bleeding spot when he suddenly heard her voice squeezing out from between her teeth.

"Nangong Yi, don’t f****ing tell me you don’t even know about women’s menstruation!"

The man paused in his actions, and a hint of confusion appeared in his eyes: "Menstruation, what’s that?"

A crow flew over their heads.

Cai Wei, enduring severe abdominal pain, said with clenched teeth: "Old virgin, a period is... Ah..."

Another wave of severe pain arrived. She suddenly bit her lips, twisted her face, and was in so much pain she couldn’t continue speaking.

Seeing her in such pain, Nangong Yi no longer cared to figure out what menstruation actually was. He held the hemostatic meds, about to apply them to her.

Cai Wei was in so much pain she was sweating profusely. She no longer had the strength to swear. She weakly squeezed her legs together and said intermittently: "Really, don’t do it, please, this is... a natural... physiological phenomenon..."

A natural... physiological phenomenon!

Such peculiar and unfamiliar words! Though Nangong Yi heard them for the first time, according to their literal meaning, he vaguely sensed something amiss.

While contemplating, the voice of a palace maid suddenly came from outside the door, "Announcing to His Highness, King Qin, Doctor Jiang has arrived and is waiting outside the hall."

"Conferring-"

Nangong Yi got up and covered her with the brocade quilt on the couch. After tucking her into the quilt and lowering the bed curtain, he sat cross-legged on the rattan chair by the couch.

"Old servant pays respects."

Upon entering, Doctor Jiang was about to kneel and bow, but was stopped by Nangong Yi.

"Doctor Jiang, no need for formalities, quickly check on this girl. She’s suffering terribly from stomach pain, would there be any quick pain relief remedies?"

Seeing that His Highness, King Qin, was so anxious that he was about to lose his temper, Doctor Jiang quickly stood upright and hurriedly moved to the bed, took out a silk handkerchief, and covered the delicate, fair hand outside the curtain.

Within the curtain, the woman’s suppressed gasps of pain were heard from time to time. It seemed she was really in a lot of pain.

Doctor Jiang dared not slack off. He closed his eyes and carefully took her pulse.
