The coroner and the concubine doctor pursue the murderer in the Dali Temple

Chapter 511 Surgery

Chu Yunxi put all the medicines in a medicine box, took a deep breath again, and got on the carriage resolutely. She said to Baiyu Heimu, "You two, get off the carriage and deal with the crazy Taoist priest. Be careful that Muchen will come over. Brother, stay in the carriage and help me."

Baiyu Heimu did not dare to delay and immediately got off the carriage to deal with it.

Chu Yunxi closed the door and asked Wen Rulan to light all the oil lamps at the four corners of the carriage. She undressed Xiao Mubei and saw that bleeding was still coming out of the wound, and Xiao Mubei's breathing was already very weak.

After carefully examining the wound, Chu Yunxi said solemnly, "Brother, the situation is urgent. I must immediately perform a thoracotomy on the prince and find the bleeding site for treatment. From now on, this carriage is a sterile operating room. You must disinfect it immediately. I will give you anesthesia and start the operation immediately."

"Okay." Wen Rulan took the disinfectant and started to disinfect. After the disinfection, he helped Chu Yunxi to put Xiao Mubei on ECG monitoring. The ECG monitor in the Liyue bracelet had not been used for a long time, but fortunately there was still power. Although Wen Rulan's medical skills were not as good as Chu Yunxi's, he was more than enough to help. After he finished, he began to cooperate with Chu Yunxi in the operation. Whatever Chu Yunxi needed, he would immediately hand it to her.

Apart from the excitement and confusion she felt when she was outside just now, Chu Yunxi was now completely immersed in the operation. Her hands were particularly steady, as if she was back at the operating table. All she could see were the wound and the data on the ECG monitor. Although Xiao Mubei's breathing was weak, his blood pressure and blood oxygen saturation were still okay, thanks to his diligent martial arts training and good physical condition.

The operation lasted for three and a half hours before Chu Yunxi finally sutured all the wounds and cut the last thread. She collapsed on the carriage. It was a seven-hour high-intensity operation, and she had to kneel and lie on her stomach. Her back was almost broken, but it was a very successful operation. What she was most afraid of now was the postoperative infection. As long as she passed this hurdle, Xiao Mubei's life would be saved.

Wen Rulan wiped the sweat off Chu Yunxi's face and said distressedly, "Just lie down and rest for a while. I'll just look after the prince."

Chu Yunxi leaned back in her chair, shook her head, and said, "I can still hold on. I must protect him and not make the slightest mistake."

Wen Rulan knew that she couldn't be persuaded at this moment, so she said, "Okay, I'll get you something to eat, and we'll go back to Beijing after we're full."

Chu Yunxi nodded, too tired to talk anymore.

Wen Rulan got off the carriage worriedly and said to Baiyu Heimu, "Guard the carriage well, but don't go in casually. The prince is most afraid of bacteria now, so don't open the door."

Although Bai Yu Heimu didn't know what bacteria were, he nodded immediately when he heard Wen Rulan say not to open the door. Bai Yu said, "We have sent the imperial guards who followed us to bring the crazy Taoist back to the capital. At the same time, we have ordered people to search for Muchen and Huo Zixu nearby. They shouldn't have gone too far. Since the crazy Taoist broke his promise and hurt the prince, there is no need for us to keep the three-day agreement. We can just capture Huo Zixu and bring him back together."

Wen Rulan agreed with Bai Yu and said, "Okay, let's do it."

Wen Rulan went to prepare food. Chu Yunxi took a towel in the carriage and wiped the blood off Xiao Mubei's face and body bit by bit. She said, "Prince, you must strive to be good and get through this. I will definitely let you go in the future. If you say go east, I will definitely not go west. If you want to see the vast mountains and rivers, I will accompany you to see them. If you want to continue to be the Minister of Dali Temple, I will still be your coroner. By the way, you haven't seen what Xiao Sui looks like, but don't look at him now. He is so ugly, his hands and feet are not fully grown yet. After he is born, it may take a few months for him to become better looking."

Just after she finished speaking, Chu Yunxi felt like she was kicked in the stomach twice. She paused and touched her stomach with her other hand, muttering to herself, "Are you unhappy when someone says you're ugly? You're ugly and you don't want people to say that. If you have the ability, you should grow up to be pretty soon."

Chu Yunxi was kicked in the stomach twice more. She was suddenly startled and a little excited. Could it be... Could it be that Xiao Sui really heard her talking? Could it be that he was conscious?

"Xiao Sui, can you hear what your mother said?"

There was no movement in her stomach, so Chu Yunxi patted her stomach in despair and said, "If you hear it, kick it a few more times."

Still no movement, Chu Yunxi was a little disappointed and continued to wipe Xiao Mubei's face, "I knew you wouldn't be able to regain your consciousness so quickly, it must have been just a coincidence, you're so dishonest, kicking people for no reason, when you come out, I'll spank you."

Chu Yunxi was kicked in the stomach twice more, and was surprised, "Xiao Sui, you can hear it, right?"

There was no movement again, but Chu Yunxi was already very surprised. She thought that this child must have a tsundere personality. He couldn't stand others saying bad things about him, but he was disdainful to answer other people's questions. He really had a strong personality.

This little episode made her mood, which was gloomy because of Xiao Mubei's injury, a little better. After cleaning the blood on Xiao Mubei's body, throwing the bloody clothes out of the carriage, covering him with a blanket, and hanging water for him, she was finally able to take a rest.

Wen Rulan did not roast game this time, but picked some wild fruits for her and said, "I think you are not in the mood to eat anything else at the moment, so make do with it. We will return to the capital now. The prince needs to go back to the mansion to recuperate."

Chu Yunxi nodded, and everyone returned to Beijing overnight.

In the early morning, Xiao Mubei developed a high fever and began to talk nonsense. Sometimes he said, "Yunxi, run," and sometimes he said, "Yunxi, stay with me." He kept mentioning the word "Yunxi."

Chu Yunxi had been holding his hand, feeling his temperature rising higher and higher, and she was extremely anxious. She gave him a fever-reducing injection, but it had no effect at all. This was the situation Chu Yunxi feared the most.

There was no way to do various examinations now, so Chu Yunxi could only give him anti-inflammatory water and antipyretic injections. He finally returned to the palace the next morning. Butler Ling had already received the news and ordered the servants to carry a stretcher and wait at the door of the palace. When the carriage arrived, Chu Yunxi first gave him disinfectant and asked him to disinfect Xiaoyue Residence thoroughly, and then let the servants carry Xiao Mubei in.

Looking at the servant carrying Xiao Mubei in front, Chu Yunxi vaguely remembered when she first arrived here. That was the first time she saw Xiao Mubei. He was also lying on a stretcher, unconscious, and being carried by a servant. At that time, she never thought that she would have such a deep entanglement with this man in this life. Life is really unpredictable.
