Chapter 243 Return to Beijing

 On the seventh day after New Year's Eve, medical officers from Pingzhou arrived in southern Jiangsu.

All epidemic control affairs in southern Jiangsu have been handed over, and it is time for the medical officers to return to Shengjing.

In front of the city gate, carriages and horses gathered together. Cai Fang and Li Wenhu saw each other off at the city gate. The people behind them left the city on their own. The first ones were the patients from the previous hospital, bowing to the medical officers to thank them.

 After switching to the new prescription, the patients who were infected with the epidemic, except for a few extremely serious cases, gradually improved.

In the past few months in southern Jiangsu, the medical officers from Shengjing traveled to and from the hospital every day and were tired from work. The climate in Shengjing is different from that in southern Jiangsu. The old medical officers often complained about the cold and humid winter in southern Jiangsu. They shouted every day to return to Shengjing as soon as possible. Unexpectedly, after sharing the joys and sorrows for a while, they felt a bit reluctant to leave when they parted.

Cui Cui walked to Lu Zong's side.

 “Thank you, Medical Officer Lu.”

The little girl lowered her head, too ashamed to look into Lu Xun's eyes: "...I'm sorry."

 “It’s okay.” Lu Yan touched her head.

Cuicui's parents were gone, and the red woman who was the matchmaker for Cuicui adopted Cuicui because she was helpless and had no heirs of her own.

 A great epidemic has destroyed many poor people in Sunan. Cai Fang and Li Wenhu still have a lot to do next. The world is like this, there are always sufferings, but people always have to move forward.

“Medical Officer Lu, I also want to study medicine in the future.” Cuicui mustered up the courage to speak, “I also want to be like you and save more people.”

She stayed in the hospital for a long time and experienced the despair of illness firsthand. The medical officers breathed life into this hopeless road.

 Gods and Buddhas are useless, she wants to be the one who saves people and gives hope to others.

"Okay," Lu Yun said with a smile, "There is an imperial medical bureau in Shengjing. If you have a chance to come to Shengjing in the future, you can come to see me at the West Street Renxin Medical Center."

Ji Xun was slightly startled.

She was completely unaware of it.

 Cai Fang bowed deeply to everyone.

“You have traveled thousands of miles to go to southern Jiangsu, and have been with southern Jiangsu for several months. Such kindness will not be forgotten by the people of southern Jiangsu.”

“It’s just a quick get-together, but we will say goodbye eventually. The medical officers have returned to Shengjing. If there is a chance to come to southern Jiangsu again in the future, Cai will serve you wholeheartedly.”

"Take care of yourself."

 When we gather and disperse in a hurry, we will eventually say goodbye...

 Lu Zhuo turned around.

It’s the New Year. It hasn’t snowed in southern Jiangsu for a long time, and the morning sun is pouring from the mountains.

I seem to see a little girl carrying a bamboo basket walking on Luomei Peak.

She walked very slowly, step by step, and her childishness had not completely faded away. She occasionally laughed for a moment, walking out of the twilight and passing by her.

 Lu Tong stared at her blankly.

 “Doctor Lu.”

Someone's voice came from behind her. She turned around and saw Pei Yunying standing in front of the carriage, walking towards her with a smile.

The sun fell on him, bright and warm. He took Lu Zong's hand and said, "Let's go."

 She was stunned for a moment, then laughed.

"good."

He led Lu Nong into the carriage, got on the horse and walked beside the convoy. As the carriage and horses set off, Li Wenhu's voice came from behind: "Have a good journey, everyone!"

 …

 Time flies by quickly.

 Not long after the New Year, the sun and Qizhe will appear, and everything will be spring.

 The day before the beginning of spring, there is a saying of "announcement of spring". Boys in blue robes and hats go door to door delivering pictures of spring oxen.

Renxin Medical Center also got a Spring Ox picture and posted it on the door of the medical center. Acheng went to Guanxiang to buy spring cakes and sesame candy, put them on a plate, and gave a piece to every patient who came to get medicine.

Du Changqing felt sleepy as soon as spring arrived. He dozed off in the shop with his head on his hands. Yin Zheng passed by and said, "Master, why don't we go to Guanxiang to buy something?"

Du Changqing raised his eyelids: "What to buy?"

“Girl is going back to Shengjing, so you should prepare in advance.”

Not long after the year, Miao Liangfang asked his old acquaintances at Hanlin Medical College and learned that a message had arrived from southern Jiangsu, saying that the epidemic control in southern Jiangsu was going very smoothly. His Majesty has ordered the nearest Pingzhou Medical Clinic to send a medical officer to take over. The medical officer from the Nabo Medical Officer Hospital who previously went to southern Jiangsu will leave for Beijing soon.

Du Changqing told her on his fingers: "Last month I said I would arrive in ten days, ten days ago I said I would arrive in seven days, seven days ago I said I would arrive in five days, and now it's not here! These days are more fickle than your face, anyone who believes it is a fool. I don’t believe it, go and do it yourself.”

As soon as he finished speaking, Acheng ran out of the door panting, loudly shouting: "It's here, it's here!"

Du Changqing suddenly sat up in shock: "Who is here?"

“Doctor Lu!” said the young man, “Doctor Lu has arrived in the capital!”

 Lu Zong is back.

 The medical officers who went to southern Jiangsu to rescue the epidemic returned to Shengjing on this spring morning, and the imperial city became lively. All the medical officers from the Hanlin Medical Officer's Hospital squeezed out to greet him, and the gate of the Medical Officer's Hospital was packed to the brim.

Lu Zhen fell behind. Pei Yunying dismounted his horse and walked up to her.

“You go back to the medical hospital to rest first, I will come find you later.”

The journey from southern Jiangsu to Shengjing was long, and Lu Shu's illness had not yet fully recovered, so he was tired of traveling and traveling, and he couldn't bear it after all.

"No, I have to go back to West Street after registering the documents." Lu Yan looked at him: "You want to enter the palace?"

"yes."

Pei Yunying has been away from Shengjing for too long. All matters related to the front office affairs are handed over to Xiao Zhufeng. After returning to the capital, he still needs to meet the emperor and report the details of the battle at Qishui to the new emperor.

 “You go ahead.” Lu Yan said, “Today should be very busy.”

 “Then I’ll come back to you.”

 After he finished speaking, he got on his horse and left with the guards.

 …

Pei Yun entered the palace.

 The Hall of Qinzheng seems to be the same as before, but there is a new person on the golden throne.

  King Ning - No, he should be the new emperor now. I am very happy to see him back.

"I'm finally back." The emperor said, "I can't stand the drills of the Dragon and Tiger Guards in the capital these days without you. I can't do it without you in front of the palace."

Pei Yunying smiled and said: "It seems that His Majesty has been very busy in the past few months."

 The emperor snorted.

 Very busy indeed.

 The new emperor ascended the throne, and the old forces were entangled. Qi Qing had controlled the court for many years. Even though the Qi family was defeated, there were still remnant forces in the court. During the reign of Emperor Liang Ming, he collected taxes extensively, and the corruption in the court was not eliminated overnight. The position of emperor was not as secure as Mount Tai.

“It’s hard to secure the territory outside and control the country inside. It’s really difficult according to the teachings of the late emperor.” He sighed.

 “As the Son of Heaven, Your Majesty cannot say that it is difficult.”

The emperor glanced at him: "You said that about me too?"

Pei Yun smiled but said nothing.

  Prince Ning has been the "Prince of Waste" for many years. He spends all his time shopping for flowers and vegetables in Guanxiang. Everyone says he has a good temper. Even though it is because of keeping a low profile, people do one thing for a long time and gradually get used to it. Therefore, sitting in this position, putting away the past comfort, and occasionally thinking about it, it does feel like it is cold at high places.

 The emperor put down the fold in his hand, shook his head and said, "What about you? The battle at Qishui ended so happily. Was it because you wanted to see your sweetheart? Are you so impatient?"

Pei Yunying paused.

 The emperor looked teasingly.

The new emperor ascended the throne, and all the troops of Chen Wei, the uncle of the third prince, were withdrawn. Yuen Long ordered Pei Yunying to eliminate the chaos in Qishui. The war ended faster than anyone expected. After the military rebellion ended, Pei Yunying sent a letter to Shengjing as quickly as possible, requesting to stay in southern Jiangsu to assist medical officers in the epidemic.

The emperor adjusted his sleeves and said: "Many people in the court came to you that day, saying that you were arrogant because of your military exploits. You stayed in southern Jiangsu and refused to return to the capital, hiding the intention of treason. It was I who tried my best to protect you in front of those old foxes. If it weren't for me, , you are in quite a lot of trouble now."

 “Thank you, Your Majesty, for your trust.”

Yuen Long waved his hand: "They don't know, but I know, you are just a lover."

Pei Yunying: “…”

Yuan Lang looked at him with great interest: "To be honest, Commander Pei, I never thought that you are a very affectionate person."

Pei Yunying handled the Qishui Soldier Rebellion case very beautifully, but then he turned around and went to southern Jiangsu, catching everyone off guard.

However, although the righteous words written in his request for imperial orders were righteous, Yuen Long could still distinguish two words from the righteous words in the full paper - Lu Zhuo.

 He is Sunan who went for Lu Zhuo.

The emperor clicked his tongue twice: "Do you need me to give you a marriage? I have never given you a marriage in my life, so I might as well start with you."

Pei Yunying paused and said, "Your Majesty, let me handle the marriage myself."

"What?" The emperor narrowed his eyes and looked at him meaningfully, "You have been with that medical officer for several months in southern Jiangsu, and she hasn't taken a liking to you yet?"

"no…"

“Pei Yunying, Pei Yunying, after all, you are also a commander selected by thousands of people in front of the palace. In terms of appearance, family background and character, you are all first-rate. Why are you so useless in matters of love? You just follow Lord Yan..."

 When the word "Master Yan" came out, both of them were stunned for a moment.

As if a tacit taboo was mentioned, the gazes of Yuan Lang and Pei Yunying fell silent at the same time.

 After the palace change, the situation of the three yamen was rewritten.

The third prince was imprisoned, and the prince's faction was completely collapsed. The lowly people in the court couldn't wait to defect and rebel. The Shengjing Imperial City was extremely lively every day, and new people entered the Zhao Prison of the Imperial City Division all the time.

The female family members of the harem were also accommodated, and the Queen Mother asked Wan'en Temple to copy scriptures and worship the Buddha. Perhaps it was to avoid suspicion, or to express inner condemnation—the Queen Mother may not have been unaware of the true cause of death of the late emperor and the late prince, but she was neither the biological mother of the former prince nor Emperor Liang Ming. If it did not affect her status, some things would be revealed. One eye passed.

Now that Yuen Long has ascended the throne, as an emperor and a courtier, the Queen Mother is a smart person and takes the initiative to get herself out of the delicate situation.

 Things in the harem are relatively easy to sort out, but things in the former dynasty are much more dangerous.

"Lord Yan is gone," the emperor said after a moment: "The Privy Council is leaderless now, and the ghosts in the court are ready to move. You came back at the right time, and I can use your eyes to uproot all the hidden thorns in the court."

Pei Yunying smiled slightly: "Your Majesty, this is the responsibility of the Imperial City Secretary and does not fall under the jurisdiction of the Palace Chief."

"Are you blaming me for not giving you enough salary?" Yuan Lang said with a smile: "When you get married, I will convert the other salary into a gift and send it to your house."

“Then I would like to thank Your Majesty first.”

 The emperor laughed, his eyes fell on the person in front of him, he didn't know what he thought of, and suddenly sighed softly.

"In the past, when the late emperor was still alive, I listened to the teachings of the late emperor to my elder brother, 'The emperor is the head of state, and the ministers are the humerus, and they work together to form a body. The body may be unprepared, and there will be no adult. However, although the head is extremely respectful, he must have sufficient resources. When the body is mature, although you are wise, you must use the humerus to cure it. If you abandon the humerus and only rely on the chest, it is a concrete reason, which is not what you have heard."

"Although the overall situation has been decided now, the world is so vast and the people from all over the world are full of thousands of things. Every time I think about it, I am always walking on thin ground."

 He looked at Pei Yunying.

 “For me, you are the ‘humerus’.”

“Pei Yunying, I don’t care what your plans are in the future, at least for now, cheer me up, I need you.”

Pei Yunying bowed his head.

"Your Majesty has this intention. If you rely on the virtuous and the people, your country will be glorious. I am willing to follow your Majesty and borrow your Majesty's eyes."

 “That’s what you said yourself.”

Pei Yunying paused and said, "Your Majesty, please don't forget to follow the courtesy."

Yuen Long laughed, pretended to throw the paperweight at it, and cursed with a smile: "De Xing! Let's catch up with your sweetheart first!"

 …

Pei Yunying's "sweetheart" is currently returning to Hanlin Medical Hospital with a group of medical officers.

 The medical officers who returned from southern Jiangsu were warmly welcomed by Hanlin Medical Officers Hospital.

Managing a pandemic is inherently dangerous and not easy at times. When I often go to their place, some will scold them as fools behind their backs, some will pity them for their misfortune, and some will be glad that the hard work is not their turn. However, when the medical officers return safely, Shengjing is always admirable.

Lin Danqing was about to take Lu Chen back to the hospital to rest first, but Lu Meng walked up to Chang Jin and said, "Yi Zheng, I have something to say to you."

Chang Jin was stunned for a moment, thinking she was going to talk about what happened behind the medicine man, so he stepped back and said, "Let's go into the room and talk."

Lu Zhuo followed Chang into the house.

As soon as he entered the room, Chang Jin sat down at the table.

"Medical Officer Lu," he said, "as soon as I come back, I will ask someone to go to the Royal Medicine Hospital to say hello. I will get you some medicinal herbs later."

"The Imperial Pharmacy and the Medical Officer's Hospital were a bit unhappy in the past. Originally, this matter was not so easy, but because of the Hongfangxu incident, their hospital envoys had a good impression of you. When they heard that you were sick, they didn't feel embarrassed and we went to get it. Medication list. It will be more convenient to take care of your health after changing the medicine."

Seeing that Lu Chen was silent, he seemed to have thought of something, and quickly added, "Don't worry, I didn't say anything about the medicine man. I only said that you have an old illness."

Lu Zhuo nodded: "Thank you for your doctor."

"Why are you so polite?" Chang Jin said again: "I'm going to Southern Jiangsu. The gold you found has a lot of uses. I'll write it down in the document. When I pass the third level in the official examination, I will work hard and become a medical doctor. It’s not far either…”

He was talking enthusiastically, but Lu Zhu interrupted him: "Medical treatment."

"how?"

 “I want to resign as Hanlin medical officer.”

Chang Jin was stunned.

“Medical Officer Lu,” he frowned, “Why do you say this all of a sudden?”

Lu Huo nodded: "My doctor also knows that the medical office has complicated affairs and is busy until late at night every day, which is not good for my recovery. I want to go back to West Street and concentrate on my recovery for a while."

“Then there’s no need to resign,” Chang Jin subconsciously persuaded him to stay. “You can just go back and rest for a while. You’re allowed to take a ten-day break.”

"How long can the doctor allow me to rest for ten days, half a month, or a month?"

Lu Zhen smiled and said, "You also know that complete recovery from my illness will not happen overnight."

"But…"

Chang Jin looked at her with some struggle in his eyes.

 Lu Zhen is a good seedling.

In the spring of the spring, the medical road and his party were quite talented. Among the young medical officers of the Hanlin Medical Council, she was outstanding. How could it not be a pity that such a good young talent should leave the medical hospital?

 But he also knew that Lu Zhuo was right.

Medical officers work hard and are on duty every day. They often stay up late, which is not helpful for Lu Zhuo to maintain his health. Although he cherishes his talent, he also has deep sympathy for Lu Zhen's previous experience as a medicine man for many years.

"Yizheng," Lu Zhuo looked at him with a calm tone, "I have been a doctor for many years, and I have gained a lot of perspective after going through life and death situations. The medical hospital is not suitable for me. Please allow me to be selfish for once. I’ll go back to West Street and live the life I want.”

Chang Jin was slightly stunned.

The woman in front of her was wearing a sparse medical officer's robe, and her eyebrows were beautiful and open. It reminded people of the way she looked pale and weak lying on the bed with her eyes closed on that winter day in southern Jiangsu.

His words of persuasion were blocked in his mouth, and he couldn't say a word.

 After a long while, Chang Jin sighed.

 “Let me think about it.”

 "You are the head of state..." - "Zhenguan Political Important"

 It’s slowly coming to an end, you can save a week to watch it!
