After the death of the previous emperor, the Empress Dowager became arrogant

Chapter 151 Temporary Return

(I'm currently revising the previous chapters, so sometimes I see previously posted content in the back. That's all the expanded plots from the front, and the rest has been moved to the back. Don't read the chapters with two-character titles yet, otherwise the content will be repeated or not connected. Wait a few more days and finish the revision.)

Yuan Qing stood outside the door holding the notebook and looked inside.

The room was almost full of patients, and the air was definitely not circulating under such conditions. Even if it was contagious, she had the bracelet to protect herself, so there would be basically no problem.

But he is just an ordinary man, so it is understandable that he would be afraid when encountering such a thing.

Yuan Qing thought for a while, then turned around and said, "How about this, you just stand here and wait for me, and take note of the conditions of the people who come for medical treatment outside, and I will go in and check it myself."

"But..." The clerk hesitated for a moment, "This matter should have been investigated by you and me together. There is no reason for you to take the responsibility for me."

"It's okay," Yuan Qing said, "I've been in good health since I was a child. Besides, who says that only working in the clinic counts as doing your job? You have to know that at this critical moment, there are many people coming and going in the clinic. Who knows if there will be thieves sneaking in and taking the opportunity to cause trouble. You have helped me a lot."

After hearing this, the young clerk's eyes lit up and he quickly ran to a less conspicuous corner across the street and stayed there, staring at the people entering and leaving the clinic.

Yuan Qing smiled and turned to go inside.

The doctor who had received her last time saw him and said to her while busying himself: "The master is here again."

Yuan Qing nodded. "I'm here to take a look at the situation and investigate. Just go about your business and don't worry about me."

Yuan Qing squeezed in through the small path.

She did not wear her official uniform today, and specially bought a short gray-green robe for work.

When those people saw her taking notes in a small notebook, they all looked over curiously.

Someone boldly asked, "Why are you sitting here?"

He was really curious, because at this special moment, except for the doctor, no one wanted to have anything to do with them.

So they were very curious about this young man.

Yuan Qing tried her best to make herself look more friendly. If she directly pointed out that she was a government official, it might cause unnecessary trouble.

She smiled at the man and said, "I'm doing this for a friend. She wants to know what this disease is, so she asked me to ask."

The man's eyes instantly brightened up, "Is your friend a doctor?"

"Yes," Yuan Qing said gently, "She is just not in the capital right now, but she is worried about the situation here, so she handed me the letter."

After he spoke, others came over and asked questions one after another.

"Little brother, aren't you afraid?"

"Can you get news from the government? What are they going to do to us? Will we die?"

"I'm not originally from the capital. I just happened to stay here for a few days. Unfortunately, I encountered this kind of thing. It's really unlucky!"

Yuan Qing closed the notebook and looked at them seriously.

"This disease actually looks a little scary. Don't worry too much. The government and the palace are actively trying to find a solution. We are recruiting famous doctors from all over the country to treat this disease together. You will get better soon."

Yuan Qing sat on the ground.

The little boy squeezed in the middle of the crowd, listening to what others said with a pen in his hand from time to time, and then quickly wrote it down in his notebook after listening.

By the time Yuan Qing walked out of the clinic, it was almost evening.

They had just arrived after receiving the assignment, but they didn't expect to be delayed for so many hours.

She touched her rumbling stomach and looked for the young clerk across the street.

The man saw her from a distance, waved his hand and ran over, "My Lord, you are out."

"Well," Yuan Qing put away the notebook and asked him, "Have you had dinner?"

The young clerk nodded and said, "I was so hungry just now that I bought some buns to eat. Are you hungry, sir? How about I go buy some for you as well?"

Yuan Qing gave him some silver and said, "Not for the time being. I'll go home and change my clothes. You can wait for me at Yanchunju. Book a room and order some simple meals. I'll explain everything to you later."

Looking at the young clerk's running back, Yuan Qing dusted off his clothes, quickened his pace, and rushed to Lu's mansion.

But when she entered the door, she found someone standing in the yard.

The man was wearing a mask and his body was wrapped in black light armor. Just standing there he looked intimidating and inviolable.

Yuan Qing didn't think of who this person was for a moment.

She looked into the distance and said, "You seem to be a Dragon Scale Guard. How did you get in?"

The man did not speak, but pointed to the palace.

Yuan Qing immediately understood that he was sent by the palace.

She turned around and closed the door. "So what's the matter with you coming here?"

The man took out a bag from behind his back, which was bulging with something unknown.

He handed it to Yuan Qing and motioned for her to take it.

Yuan Qing reached out to take it, and she was stunned for a moment when she touched it.

The bag was warm and soft, and exuded an enticing aroma.

She opened the bag and saw that it was indeed filled with buns, freshly out of the oven and still warm.

Yuan Qing looked up at the man and said with a smile, "Thank you very much. It's amazing that you are so thoughtful and even remembered that I didn't have dinner."

The man took another step forward and put his hand on the bag of buns. After a long while, he said, "Wash first and then eat."

Yuan Qing was stunned. He seemed to have heard this voice somewhere before. Why did it sound so familiar?

The man withdrew his hand and slowly took off the mask. His handsome face was full of unhappiness, and he sighed helplessly, "Sure enough, you don't remember me."

Yuan Qing lowered his head, feeling choked up at what was said.

In fact, she had roughly guessed who it was just now, but she was busy covering up the fact that she was "unfaithful" and could only pretend to be deaf and dumb.

She was surprised and said at the right time: "So you are back."

Yuan Yi sighed, "My acting skills are a bit poor, and I have regressed a bit."

Yuan Qing smiled awkwardly, stuffed the bun back into his hand, took a few steps back, turned around and ran back into the house, saying in a slightly hurried voice: "Wait a minute, I'll change my clothes first."

Yuan Yi smiled, followed her with the buns in his hand, and stood under the eaves.

Although it wasn't long since they last met, it felt like they hadn't seen each other for several years.

Although I was called back urgently this time, I was satisfied to be able to see her in my busy schedule.

Yuan Qing changed his clothes very quickly and washed up briefly.

When I pushed open the door, the afterglow of the sunset was blocked by the tall figure, forming two worlds.

Tiny specks of dust fluttered around him, and the noise seemed to have become much quieter.

Yuan Qing poked him with his finger and said confidently, "Give it to me."
