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

Chapter 512 Xiao Sui Saves His Father

Before she knew it, the servant had turned a corner and disappeared. Chu Yunxi hurriedly chased after him and followed Xiao Mubei back to Xiaoyueju.

Xiao Mubei's room was sealed, and Baiyu and Heimu were ordered to guard the door. No one was allowed to enter without permission. Chu Yunxi then stayed alone in the room to watch over Xiao Mubei. Xiao Mubei still had a high fever. Chu Yunxi kept on the ECG monitor and observed the data, worried. If it was just a simple fever caused by the wound, it would not go down even with the antipyretic injection. Now the high fever has lasted for several hours. I'm afraid the situation is not optimistic.

Just as she was thinking, there was a soft knock on the door. Bai Yu said in a low voice, "Princess, the two retired emperors are here to visit the prince."

Chu Yunxi quickly pulled herself together, took the disinfectant and came to the door, opened it, bowed to the two emperors, and said, "Your Highness, it is not appropriate to visit now. I will disinfect my father and grandfather. You can watch from a distance."

Emperor Sui Ming and the retired emperor both looked anxious, but they were still willing to listen to what Chu Yunxi said, so after the poison was disinfected, the retired emperor walked in first with the support of Hongyu.

Chu Yunxi let down a layer of gauze. Standing at the door, she could only vaguely see Xiao Mubei lying there motionless. The emperor asked anxiously, "Girl, what happened? Old Eight... Why is he so badly injured?"

Chu Yunxi lowered her head and said, "He was scratched by the crazy Taoist because he was trying to save me."

Emperor Sui Ming also came in and said angrily, "Haven't we already handed Huo Zixu over to him? Why did he want to hurt someone?"

Although they were in Dingbei Palace, they knew all these things very well. Chu Yunxi said: "This is a long story. Now the crazy Taoist has been captured and Huo Zixu is also being hunted. Without the crazy Taoist to protect him, he can't escape."

Although Muchen is still by his side, after being taught by Chu Yunxi in recent days, Muchen has already learned the difference between right and wrong, and he should no longer help Huo Zixu do evil as he did before.

Seeing Chu Yunxi's tired face, the emperor said, "Let Hongyu stay to help you. My body has been fine recently. It's enough to have Xiaoshan by my side."

Chu Yunxi was worried, so she checked the pulse of the emperor again and found that his health had indeed improved a lot recently. It seemed that he had followed the doctor's orders and taken the medicine. She also really needed help, so she did not refuse and said, "In that case, thank you, Grandfather. When the prince is better, I will let Hongyu go back."

After the two emperors left, Hongyu said to Chu Yunxi, "Princess, please take a rest. You don't look well."

Chu Yunxi was indeed very tired, but Xiao Mubei's fever had not subsided yet, and she couldn't sleep. After thinking about it, she also climbed onto the bed, carefully avoiding the line connected to Xiao Mubei's body, leaning on his right shoulder, holding his hand, feeling his body temperature, closing her eyes and taking a nap.

The ECG monitor beeped softly, indicating that the person on the bed was in a relatively stable condition. Chu Yunxi thought about the next treatment plan, and her consciousness gradually became a little confused.

In a trance, Chu Yunxi felt a force tearing her apart, and her body was spinning again, but it seemed as if something was pulling her, preventing her from spinning as steadily as before. She opened her eyes and found that she was already in chaos, but a hand could not be seen outside the chaos, which should be holding Xiao Mubei's hand.

In the distance, the red light slowly approached, and Chu Yunxi said, "Xiao Sui, you brought me here again, but your father is injured and the situation is very dangerous now. I can't stay any longer. I have to go and guard him."

The red light gradually approached. This time, because Chu Yunxi was being pulled, it moved slower and she could see more clearly. She opened her eyes wide and saw that in just a short day, the outline of the baby had become much clearer. This time, he did not circle around Chu Yunxi, but gently touched her hand, as if a breeze was blowing. Chu Yunxi only felt an itchy sensation. She looked at the baby wrapped in the red light in surprise. Although she could not see clearly, she seemed to see that he was smiling at her!

She wanted to see more clearly, but the red light seemed to have a suction force, pulling her hand inside. Chu Yunxi couldn't help but rush in. Her body suddenly relaxed, but then she felt that she was holding someone's hand. She looked up and saw Xiao Mubei being pulled in as well, but he still had his eyes closed, his body floating in the chaos, without any consciousness.

Chu Yunxi knew that this was Xiao Mubei's soul. She didn't expect that he was seriously injured and even his soul was asleep. At this time, she was surprised to see that the red light began to circle around Xiao Mubei, getting faster and faster. Gradually, she could no longer tell whether the red light was wrapped around the baby or Xiao Mubei.

After about an incense stick of time, the speed of the red light finally slowed down, and Chu Yunxi was able to see clearly that the red light had returned to the baby's body. Suddenly, she seemed to be kicked by someone, her body trembled violently, and she opened her eyes.

The beeping sound of the ECG monitor was still in her ears, and her hand was still warm, but... she thought she had felt it wrong, so she reached out and touched Xiao Mubei's forehead and neck again, and surprisingly... the fever had subsided.

She sat up hurriedly. Hongyu was busy changing Xiao Mubei's medicine. Seeing Chu Yunxi wake up, she quickly supported her and said, "Princess, you can sleep a little longer. The prince is in a stable condition now."

Chu Yunxi was stunned for a moment, and asked hurriedly: "How long have I slept?"

Hongyu thought for a moment and said, "The time was very short, just a little more than an incense stick. The princess must have been too worried about the prince's condition, so she couldn't sleep well."

No, no, no, it turned out that there was only one incense stick just now. However, Xiao Mubei was still in a high fever before going to bed. Even if the fever went down in just a short incense stick, it couldn't have gone down so quickly. Could it be that Xiao Sui... was saving Xiao Mubei just now?

Chu Yunxi looked back at Xiao Mubei and touched her belly again. There was no movement in her belly at this moment, as if Xiao Sui inside had fallen asleep. Chu Yunxi couldn't help but think, that ball of red light, if she guessed correctly, was the power of the Soul-Restoring Pearl. Could it be that Xiao Sui could control the power of the Soul-Restoring Pearl and use it to save Xiao Mubei?

Apart from this, there is no way to explain why Xiao Mubei's high fever subsided so quickly. If Xiao Mubei's fever continued to persist, the situation would be very dangerous, and it is unknown whether he can save his life. Now all the data on the ECG monitor are very good, without any abnormalities. According to Chu Yunxi's previous estimate, it will take at least five days to recover to this data...
