Unconsciously, Xiao Ning fell asleep on the desk, until the attendant came in quietly and covered him with a thin blanket.

Xiao Ning woke up, raised his eyes and said, "What time is it?" ”

"Whisk." The attendant replied briefly.

Xiao Ning raised his hand, pressed the secret guard on the table, and was silent.

The attendant took a step closer and cautiously checked his face: "Your Highness, do you want some snacks?" ”

Since he moved in the food in the other courtyard, he has not touched the chopsticks once at all, but the dim sum made by the chef, so he can eat a few pieces.

Xiao Ning bowed slightly, and said in a flat tone: "No dim sum, let a few light vegetarian dishes in the kitchen, as well as white porridge." ”

The attendant opened his mouth in surprise, you know, this is the first time that His Royal Highness has taken the initiative to ask for a meal since he arrived in Jianghuai North City, although it is only porridge.

He couldn't help but look at the letter on the table that was crumpled by His Highness, and God knows what kind of magic the words written inside had.

It's strange enough to just take the initiative to drink medicine, and now this miracle continues!

The waiter went to the kitchen without stopping, and served two plates of light vegetarian dishes instructed by Xiao Ning as quickly as possible, plus a bowl of soft and glutinous white porridge.

Xiao Ning frowned, and actually ate half of it silently.

The uncomfortable feeling in my stomach hit, and I really couldn't eat so much at once

Xiao Ning waved his hand and said, "That's enough." ”

The attendant pushed the door to take away the tray, Xiao Ning stroked his stomach and got up, walked towards the window, and saw that the rain was still falling, and in the pond in the courtyard, the waterline was almost level with the shore, and his face was gloomy.

General Sun stepped into the courtyard, met the attendant who was in a hurry, and raised his eyebrows in surprise when he saw the leftovers on the plate.

He didn't pause, and went directly into Xiao Ning's study.

General Sun took out a folded piece of paper from his bosom and handed it to Xiao Ning and said, "Your Highness, this is an old account left by the former Jianghuai prefect. “

Xiao Ning turned around and took it. His eyes swept and he frowned.

"Twenty years ago, he was the official in charge of the construction of the Jianghuai Dam, and the emperor used this person very much at that time." Xiao Ning knows better than anyone the status of this person on paper in the DPRK and China.

Xiao Ning's body stiffened, his fingers were forced, and the piece of paper in his palm became a ball, and he just stood in front of the window without saying a word

After squatting to deal with the first few injured victims of the day, I suddenly got up, dizzy and almost collapsed, but fortunately, I quickly held on to the wooden table next to me.

Leaning against the table and gasping for breath for a while, the patient who had been bandaged by me earlier looked at me with concern and said, "Doctor Lin." Are you feeling sick? "It's been a few days, and people will be tired day and night."

I smiled reluctantly and comforted him, "It's okay, it's just a hurry." I'm young, and I'm always looking for better. ”

This group of patients was originally lined up at Master Chen's side, and I took over!

Master Chen was resting, and I forced the junior brother in the medical hall to let him combine work and rest, and occasionally sleep for two hours, and I sent two more people on his side to take care of the teacher.

I'm here. Only one disciple from the medical hall followed me!

In terms of age, he is about the same age as me, but he has been doing chores in the medicine store, and he doesn't know much about medicine.

However, at least it can help me make medicine and carry water. Playing down can be regarded as reducing the burden.

After resting for a while, I felt that my body was not in good condition, and my head was even more painful, and I knew that I had reached the limit of my body. I can only rest for a while, otherwise I will really fall ill, and there is no one here to take my place.

I called out to the disciple of the Renshan Hall who was making the medicine, and told him that I was going to sleep for a while, and asked the patients waiting outside to wait for half an hour.

The presiding officer of the temple set aside two rooms for us to stay in temporarily, just behind my makeshift medical center.

I walked in, lay down on the bed, felt the aches relieved a little, and fell asleep almost as soon as I touched the pillow.

More than half an hour passed, and suddenly there was a knock at the door, I struggled to get up, rubbed the corners of my aching forehead, and heard a familiar voice shouting, "Senior Brother Lin, someone outside is asking to see you." ”

I sat up, the window was still on, and I realized that I hadn't slept long, and at this point, I found it a little puzzling how anyone could ask to see me.

Anyway, I had to go and see you first, I could hear the birds chirping in the tree outside the window, I pushed the door open, and the disciple of the medical hall motioned to me: "Senior Brother Lin, it is the one under the tree who asks to see you." ”

The heavy rain stopped for a while, and I followed the prestige, and there stood under the tree, a woman in her thirties, who had seen too many victims in the past few days, most of whom were not looking good and in ragged clothes, but it was the first time I had seen someone so well-dressed.

Looking at it, it seems to be the wife of a rich and noble family.

When she saw me push the door out, she walked forward quickly, saluted me, and said in a gentle and earnest tone, "Doctor Lin, can you please come with me?" ”

Take a trip? My lips moved, and after thinking for a few seconds, I said in a flat tone: "This lady, I'm sorry I can't go with you, there are a lot of patients waiting in the temple, I just take a short rest, and I'm going to go for treatment." ”

"That's right," said the woman apologetically, "I've already informed Dr. Chen, and he said that he really can't leave, so I'd better send you there." ”

Between the conversations, footsteps sounded not far away, and the host of the temple came over and said to me: "Doctor Lin, this is Mrs. Shen who lives in the back mountain, and she is here to invite you for her old lady." ”

The woman looked at me and said in an apologetic tone: "Doctor Lin, my mother-in-law is very old and has inconvenient legs and feet, but she has an emergency, so she came to the temple to bother you to take a trip." ”

I looked at the two of them in front of me, torn between two sides, and finally whispered, "Please wait a moment, I'll tell the teacher, if he agrees, I'll go with you." ”

When I arrived at the room where Master Chen was treating the patient, while a patient was going out, I closed the door and asked Master Chen, "Teacher, that lady said that she would invite me to go with her to the back mountain, you see."

"Xiaolin, that's what I mean, I heard the host say that the other party's identity is a little unusual."

"However, the teacher asked you to go, not because he was afraid of the other party's identity, but because the patient was old and had inconvenient legs and feet, and the reason was special, so you should follow it, and" Master Chen suddenly swallowed and vomited, and he whispered, "The lady of the inner house, it is more convenient for you to go"

I came to my senses, I'm afraid this is the biggest reason, so the master insisted that I come forward. "Teacher, have you asked about the other party's symptoms" I paused, no longer refusing, it seemed that this trip was a must-go. "Xiao Lin, you bring these" Master Chen handed me a burden that had been simply placed and said, "Ordinary symptoms, enough, if it is an incurable disease, the current conditions are limited, and it can only be postponed for a while." “

I nodded, "I see, teacher, then I'll go with that lady." “

Coming out of the side gate of the temple on the top of the mountain, I walked slowly along the muddy and slippery mountain road, and a house suddenly appeared under the shade of green trees.

When I got closer, I realized that this house did look like a courtyard built on the hill by someone with some status.

The servant opened the door for us, and the woman led me all the way through the garden to the back house.

The Jianghuai area was originally a land of fish and rice, and if it weren't for the flooding, the people of Nancheng would not have been forced into such an embarrassing situation.

Now, I am in this mansion on the mountain, and I clearly see the scene that is different from the rich and noble families in Yingtian City, whether it is the architectural style of the mansion here or the dressing style of the maids and slaves inside.

But there is one thing that surprises me, because the woman who invited me before seems to have some status in the Shen family.

When I walked into the courtyard, they seemed to be deliberately low-key, and the house was built in style, but the clothes of the people in the house were not as luxurious as I imagined, and I noticed that even the materials on the woman's clothes were not much better than those of the maids.

Coupled with the fact that she was polite all the way and came to see her in person, I also added a lot of impression points.

She led me in, and I waited outside.

I vaguely heard someone talking inside, and the old voice said unhappily: "At this time, there are many people in the temple, why do you deliberately call the doctor to go to the doctor, you must know that if you delay the doctor's time, you may miss the treatment of one of the victims." “

"Yan'er is an official in the court, if it spreads out, the outside doesn't know what to say about us."

"Mother," the woman who invited me just now said in a gentle tone, "Your legs and feet are inconvenient, so I temporarily invited the doctor to come and take a look, the prime minister is an official in the court, far away, and the daughter-in-law should take good care of you, if he knows, he won't even invite the doctor to come when you are sick, I'm afraid"

I sighed, and moved away, even if I figured out the general reason, and I didn't bother to listen to other people's chores.

The old lady's illness is an old disease, difficult to cure, but there is no danger for the time being, I carefully checked her pulse, and asked her about her recent diet and daily life.

During this time, her gaze stayed on my face, although it was very kind, but it also made me very uncomfortable.

Seeing that I was slowly blushing, she withdrew from the people below, leaving only the woman who had invited me to be in the house.

"This Doctor Lin is so young." I heard her smile and laugh.

"No, mother, it's about the same age as our Lan'er." The woman looked at me and smiled.

"Little girl, why did you disguise yourself as a man to study medicine in the medical hall?" The old lady looked at me for a long time and finally asked me.

When these words came out, my body trembled suddenly, and I was stunned on the spot!

Sending me out the door, Mrs. Shen smiled and said, "My mother-in-law is old, don't be surprised." ”

After talking about the words just now, my feelings have calmed down, and when I heard her say this, I shook my head and said: "It's okay, just please don't reveal my identity, the reason why I am dressed as a man is because of my troubles." ”

"Of course," she walked up to me, and couldn't help but raise her hand and touch my hair, "It's just that I have wronged you, at the same age as my family's Lan'er, I can't show my true face yet." ”
