Chapter 183: Court Affairs (2)
"Sister, Jiajia, Anan and I have finished school." Xinlan's voice came from outside the door.
With the return of Lin Xijin and Murong Xu, Xinlan's accommodation changed. She dragged Xijia and her "dowry" An'an to live in the East Palace.
As for Xihui and the other boys, they could only sigh at the palace and spend their days in the princess's mansion, waiting for the day off when they would come out of the palace.
"Lanlan, why don't you go see your mother first when you come back? She will come looking for you soon." Lin Xijin said angrily.
"Sister, I have sent Lin Ge to tell her. I will go back after dinner." Xin Lan made up her mind to eat here.
In the end, Lin Ge carried the food box and brought over all the food prepared by the imperial concubine, which made Lin Xijin laugh and cry.
"Hahaha," the emperor, who was staying in the Imperial Concubine's palace tonight, also laughed devilishly, "Do you think this was Xu'er's idea, or Jin'er's?"
"I think it's most likely Jin'er. Xu'er usually does things directly, and this roundabout idea doesn't seem like what he usually does." The imperial concubine is worthy of being a woman, her guesses are always right, otherwise how could there be the saying "only women can understand women more easily".
"The two of them are a perfect match made in heaven, but now Xu'er will have to bear too much pressure!" the emperor sighed.
"As long as they have a good relationship and are strong enough, they will not be afraid of these pressures." The imperial concubine was still quite envious.
……
Murong Xu and Lin Xijin were destined to be the topic of conversation tonight. Many young ladies from aristocratic families tore their handkerchiefs into pieces after hearing the news from the court.
Lin Xijin became the mistress of the Eastern Palace, but she did not lock herself up in the palace, and Murong Xu had no reason to restrain her.
"Madame Wei, Madame Zhou, from now on the affairs of the palace will be managed by you two, along with Mingshu and Minghua. I have a lot of things to do outside, so you just need to take care of the small matters." Lin Xijin called Madame Wei and the other three and gave them instructions.
"Yes, master." The four were very grateful for Lin Xijin's trust.
Nanny Wei and the other two had been with her in the Eastern Palace since the day of her wedding. Lin Xijin thought that these four people were pretty good, so she decided to keep them.
Huang Ma Ma did not enter the palace, she still felt at ease outside the palace. She begged to stay in the Princess's Mansion to accompany Qi Po and take care of the young masters such as Xi Hui and Xi Jia. Lin Xijin also thought her proposal was good, so she agreed.
As for Lin Dong, Lin Nan and Qiu Yan, Lin Xijin brought them into the palace. They had no worries outside the palace and were very happy.
During this period, Lin Xijin's daily routine was relatively regular. She just took care of the affairs of the Eastern Palace, inspected various businesses, looked at the teaching of various Hope Primary Schools and the operation of the Charity Bureau, and returned to the Princess' Mansion to care about the lives of the boys.
The most time was devoted to teaching in the medical school. Taking advantage of this free time, Lin Xijin came to teach two classes almost every day. Banxia and Mujin usually taught some basic courses in surgery and obstetrics and gynecology, but Lin Xijin's main focus in class was on practical operations.
Banxia, Mujin, and Yuzhu can already independently treat many minor diseases, but they are still timid when facing more difficult diseases. For example, thoracotomy and laparotomy still need Lin Xijin to do it herself.
"Princess, a patient with intestinal colic has been sent to the emergency department. He is now in a state of high fever and coma, and his condition is critical." Lin Xijin was explaining the essentials of cesarean section surgery to students when a doctor from the emergency department ran over in a hurry.
"Everyone, please read the handouts and take note of the key points. We will review them in the next class." Lin Xijin assigned the classroom tasks and hurried away with Banxia and Mujin.
"How is the patient?" Lin Xijin asked when she entered the emergency room and saw Yuzhu and Beican examining the patient.
"Master, the patient should have acute appendicitis, but due to untimely treatment, it has turned into a serious condition. The patient has symptoms such as abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, fever, etc., and is now in a coma. I'm afraid he needs surgical intervention." Yuzhu answered in an orderly manner.
Lin Xijin stepped forward and conducted an examination. The patient was in his twenties, obese, and had a thick abdomen. This appendicitis was probably caused by long-term overeating.
Yuzhu's judgment is accurate.
"Are there any family members here?" Lin Xijin asked.
"Crown Princess, please save my son." A middle-aged woman in gorgeous clothes nearby pleaded anxiously.
"Stand up and talk." Lin Xijin said to her, "Your son was brought here a little late. Now ordinary treatments such as medication, hot compresses, and acupuncture are no longer effective for him. It is estimated that his appendix has become festered and surgery must be performed immediately. If you agree, please sign the consent form for surgery." Lin Xijin said to her seriously.
"I sign, I sign." The woman nodded repeatedly.
The patient was dressed in hospital gown, given a fever-reducing injection, and quickly pushed into the operating room. Lin Xijin asked Polygonatum odoratum, Ginseng chinensis, Pinellia ternata, and Hibiscus mume to enter the operating room together.
"Yuzhu, you will be the lead surgeon this time, with Beican cooperating, and Pinellia ternata and Hibiscus sylvestris assisting." Lin Xijin ordered.
"Master, can I do it?" Yuzhu was a little unconfident.
"This is just a minor operation. Believe in yourself, be bold and careful, and follow the steps. I'll be watching you, just go ahead and do it with confidence." Lin Xijin encouraged.
"Yes, master."
Several people quickly disinfected the patient, Yuzhu selected the incision, and quickly found the appendix along the colon band after cutting it open, cut the appendix mesentery, sutured and buried the stump, and performed the final suture after cleaning the abdominal cavity. Although the movements were still a little stiff and the hand speed was far less than Lin Xijin's, there was no doubt that the whole operation was successful.
Lin Xijin took the lead in applauding Yuzhu, and Beishen, Pinellia, and Mujin also followed suit. Yuzhu was so excited that her face turned red.
"In the future, Pinellia ternata and Hibiscus chinensis will perform more obstetrics and gynecology surgeries, while Polygonatum odoratum and Glehnia littoralis will take on more of the other surgeries. You have to become the sword of the medical school." Lin Xijin encouraged.
"Thank you for your cultivation, master!" Several people were obviously encouraged.
The patient was cleaned up, given antibiotics, and pushed out of the ward. The woman thanked her son repeatedly when she saw that his breathing was stable.
With Yuzhu and the others around, she didn't have to worry about the follow-up treatment and precautions, and Lin Xijin quickly returned to the East Palace.
"Jin'er, your birthday is in a few days. How do you want to celebrate?" Murong Xu held her on his lap and stroked her long, silky hair.
"During these difficult times, don't be extravagant and wasteful, just spend time with your family."
"Well, speaking of this, I still owe An An and the others a promise."
"What promise?"
"Didn't I promise to take An An and the others hunting? Why don't we go hunting together at Xishan Hunting Ground on our day off? Let's celebrate your birthday in advance."
"It's up to you, but be careful. I think someone will be watching you."
"I'll make the arrangements. We have to provide some opportunities to others, right?" A fierce look flashed in Murong Xu's eyes.
Lin Xijin let Murong Xu make preparations. Murong Xu asked An Yi and others to reveal some clues intentionally or unintentionally so that certain people would know.
