A Military Doctor Became a Stepmom in Ancient Times

“Okay, okay, okay. I’ll follow you,” Jiang Ying said.

“There’s no need. Such a big thing has happened here, but you still have to divert your attention to investigate. After the investigation, you have to explain the situation to the emperor. Don’t follow me,” Ning Yue said.

“Alright, let’s split into two groups. I’ll stay behind to investigate the fire. Go back and rest first. We’ll help them change their dressing in the evening. If I’m done, I’ll look for you. When you’re done, come and look for me,” Jiang Ying replied.

Of course Ning Yue agreed. As long as Jiang Ying did not follow her, she had the final say. After all, it was a little difficult to change the dressings in two hours. She was afraid she could not do it.

After the two of them finished chatting, Ning Yue returned home to rest, and Gu Yu was no exception.

After a busy night, the two of them no longer had the energy to communicate. However, Gu Yu was very concerned about Ning Yue’s small operations on those seriously injured people. Such a small knife was like magic, so he naturally cared a lot.

However, he could not remember this matter. He would talk about it after he and Ning Yue rested. Coincidentally, they were going to change the dressing for the injured tonight. He could take the opportunity to ask.

With this thought in mind, Gu Yu returned to his room to sleep.

When they woke up, it was already evening. After a few hurried bites of food, the two of them went to the western suburbs.

Gu Yu couldn’t help but ask Ning Yue about the surgery on the way. She explained it to him.

“Master, didn’t I give you a set of scalpels last time? Those scalpels are very useful. Use a different knife for each different part.”

“I wanted to remove the burned and unrecoverable flesh from the injured. I needed to use this scalpel.” As she spoke, she took out a slightly larger scalpel from the first aid kit.

“As they were burned and their skin is largely necrotic, only this scalpel can remove the burned flesh from their bodies,” Ning Yue said.

Along the way, Ning Yue and Gu Yu discussed the surgery. Gu Yu listened with relish.

“Speaking of which, where did you learn these methods? Not bad. The last time you gave me a scalpel, I thought it was for disemboweling,” Gu Yu said as he picked up his set of scalpels.

“Master, you can still use these to cut open the stomach, but there’s a correct way to cut open the stomach. There are many tools to use. I’ll explain to you later. We’re almost there. Let’s change the dressings for the injured first,” Ning Yue said as she put away her set of scalpels.

After the two of them got out of the carriage, they saw the doctor standing at the intersection to welcome them.

“Princess Mingyue and Doctor Gu, you’re here. Please come in!” The doctors were very happy to see the two of them.

They had learned a lot from Ning Yue and Gu Yu last night.

There must be something special about the way to change the dressings today. If they learned it, they would be able to do even more in the future.

Ning Yue did not hide it. She taught the doctor how to bandage the wounds while changing the dressing.

“You have to do it very gently. You can’t take off the gauze on their bodies directly, because there’s no moisture on it at all. If you take it off like this, it’ll tear their wounds. You can dip a cotton swab in some disinfectant and wipe their wounds a little. Remember to be gentle, like this.”

As Ning Yue taught, she demonstrated. The doctors seized the chance to learn.

When Gu Yu saw this situation, he couldn’t help but shake his head. He didn’t have a chance to take action at all.

The doctors sent by the palace also brought apprentices. Not only were the doctors learning, but those apprentices were also learning.

They each took care of one patient. Almost all the patients were assigned, and he didn’t even have a chance to do anything.

However, he already knew how to bandage the wound properly, so there was no need to do it.

After bandaging a wound, a bold doctor stepped forward and asked Ning Yue, “Your Highness, can I ask you a question?”

“It’s fine. Go ahead and ask. As long as I know, I can answer you,” Ning Yue said.

“It’s like this. We’re very curious about the formula for your disinfectant. If possible, Princess, can you tell us?” The doctor was quite embarrassed when he said this.
