The accompanying doctor was originally a military doctor with rich practical experience.
He was carried by soldiers on both sides and hurried down the mountain into the woods in the east.
The moment he saw Su Wanti, he frowned, because Su Wanti was lying under a giant tree, her eyes closed, her breath weak, and she was seriously injured. It seemed that she was hanging on to her last breath and would die at any time.
After giving Su Wanti a preliminary examination, the accompanying doctor's frown finally relaxed.
"Miss Su is really lucky. She fell from a cliff several hundred meters high and still managed to survive."
Dugu Cang, who had hurried over, happened to hear these words. He strode forward, grasped the accompanying doctor's shoulder, and said excitedly with an anxious look:
"Doctor Zhang, you're not lying to me, are you? What you said is true! Wanmei is fine, her life is saved!"
The accompanying doctor, Doctor Zhang, has been with Dugu Cang all the time. He has treated Dugu Cang for many knife and sword wounds, as well as various colds and flu, and is very familiar with him.
Doctor Zhang pried open Dugu Cang's hand that was pinching his shoulder and said, "Your Highness, please don't get excited yet. I haven't finished what I want to say yet."
Dugu Cang's face darkened instantly. Fear appeared between the brows of this man who was always in control of the situation and in command.
"Doctor Zhang, you said..." The corners of his mouth twitched uncontrollably.
Doctor Zhang sighed and said, "Miss Su's life was saved. When she fell from the cliff, she landed on this big tree."
He pointed to the tallest and most luxuriant tree around. The tree had dense branches and leaves, so dense that even sunlight could not penetrate the ground.
"Miss Su was stopped by the branches of this big tree several times, which saved her life. However, Your Highness, you can see that Miss Su Su has many scratches on her body, and there is a red swelling on the back of her head."
"The scratches are probably from a branch, so they're not serious. But the redness and swelling on the back of your head is a bit more complicated. It's possible that your head hit something hard during the fall, like a tree trunk, branch, or rock on the ground. In my experience, injuries to the back of the head are particularly dangerous."
"What does Doctor Zhang mean?"
Doctor Zhang sighed, "What I mean is that Miss Su is alive, but we don't know when she will wake up. Maybe she will wake up in a few days, or maybe she will never wake up again."
Dugu Cang only felt that his eyes went dark, his ears were buzzing, his hands and feet became weak instantly, and he almost couldn't stand.
His body swayed slightly a few times and he managed to stand firmly.
"Doctor Zhang, is there any way to save Wanmei? Tell me, no matter how much it costs or how many precious herbs we use, as long as we can make her wake up..."
Doctor Zhang saw that he was too excited and was afraid that he would fall ill again, which would make the burden on him even heavier.
He comforted her, "Don't worry, Your Majesty. I will prescribe some blood-activating and blood-stasis-removing medicine for Miss Su. She should take it on time every day. Perhaps the blood clots in Miss Su's brain will dissolve and she will wake up."
"Besides, I'm just a military medical officer, specializing in treating sword stab wounds, scratches, broken arms and legs, and other external injuries. Miss Su has a bruise on her head, which is not my area of expertise. Your Highness should bring Miss Su back to the capital as soon as possible. There are many famous doctors in the capital, specializing in various fields. We will definitely find a skilled doctor to cure Miss Su."
"Your Highness, what you need to do now is to remain calm. I'm going to presume to say something, but there are no women in our team. Before we return to the capital, Your Highness will need to personally take care of Miss Su."
Hearing this, Dugu Cang's drooping spirit suddenly shook, "Doctor Zhang, please tell me how to take care of her. I will do it."
Doctor Zhang nodded. "She needs to be fed her medicine every day and massaged personally. When she was unconscious, lying still for a long time would cause blood stasis, which could seriously endanger her life."
"Doctor Zhang, please teach me the massage techniques later. I will definitely take good care of her."
At this moment, Dugu Cang's heart was filled with a mixture of pain, guilt, anxiety, and fear.
Looking at Su Wanti, who was unconscious with her eyes closed, covered in scars, he felt extremely regretful.
If Wanmei could wake up, he would never force her to do anything she didn't want to do.
Faced with life and death, he realized that the most important thing was that his younger sister was alive, not to tie her to himself.
He wanted to see her joking freely in the fields, under the sunset glow, under the vines in the small courtyard. He didn't want to see her lying on the ground with a pale face, motionless...
Now, Dugu Cang just wants to take Su Wanti back to Beijing as soon as possible, find the best doctor in the world to cure her, and then let her freely choose the life she likes.
This time, no matter what decision she made, he would support her, protect her, hold her back, and be her support...
"Doctor Zhang, can I hold her now?" Dugu Cang said.
Doctor Zhang nodded. "Her bones are not broken. You can carry her to the carriage. Make sure the carriage is well cushioned and that she doesn't get bumped, especially on the head. Be careful with her."
"good."
Dugu Cang carefully held Su Wanti in his arms, as if he was holding the softest and most precious treasure in the world.
His hand gently brushed the strands of hair on her forehead, and he whispered softly, "Wanmei, don't worry. My master is in the capital. He is an otherworldly expert. Perhaps he can find a way to save you."
"If Master can't help, then I will spend all my family wealth to find the world's most famous doctors to treat you. There will always be someone who can cure you."
The words were spoken softly, but they still reached Dr. Zhang's ears.
He secretly shook his head, thinking, the Regent really cares about this Miss Su...
However, I always exaggerate my words. Actually, judging from the wound, Miss Su's injury is not particularly serious.
There is a 50% chance that he will be in a coma for a few days, the blood clots will dissipate, and he will wake up on his own.
However, he couldn't guarantee anything about the head wound. What if the wound didn't look serious, but was actually very serious inside?
He didn't have X-ray vision, so he had no idea of the extent of the injury inside his brain, so he could only exaggerate the severity...
I hope Miss Su can wake up before returning to Beijing. Otherwise, judging from the prince's attitude, he will definitely cause chaos in the capital and unrest in the whole country.
Dugu Cang had the carriage covered with soft and comfortable cloth, and every corner was wrapped with soft cloth.
In order to keep the carriage cool, a small basin of ice is placed in the carriage every day when traveling, and the ice is replaced with new ones when it melts.
Dugu Cang carefully learned the massage techniques from Doctor Zhang and massaged Su Wanti three times a day.
He also personally brought the daily medicine to Su Wanti and fed it to her spoonful by spoonful.
Dugu Cang also personally applied ointment to the small wounds on Su Wanti's body caused by branches and leaves.
Under Dugu Cang's meticulous care, the wounds on Su Wanti's face and body had almost healed before she even arrived in the capital.
But she was still in a coma and had not woken up yet.
She looked like she was asleep, peaceful and calm.
Sometimes, Dugu Cang would look at her peaceful sleeping face and wonder if she was dreaming at that moment.
Will you dream about yourself?
