Chapter 476: Hope to go all the way

Chapter 476 Hope to walk together

As soon as Su Ying woke up, she found Zhou Qing guarding the door with two dark circles under her eyes.

"Your Majesty is awake, this servant will bring you some water to wash your Majesty." Zhou Qing actively ran away before Su Ying could speak.

In a blink of an eye, she came into the room carrying a basin to wait for Su Ying to wash.

"You didn't sleep last night?"

Of course Zhou Qing didn’t dare to tell Su Ying that she was worried about Xiao Jin, so she guarded outside the door all night, “The servant fell asleep after falling asleep for several days and couldn’t sleep anymore. She was worried about what the empress might need at night, so she kept guard.”

"I never wake up at night to have any needs, and next time I don't have to."

Zhou Qing responded repeatedly.

Su Ying changed into a clean dress after washing, "Where is Mr. Xiao from Beijing?" Xiao Jin said his surname was Xiao to the outside world.

"Go back to your mother, is that lord an official sent by Beijing to deal with the disaster?"

Su Ying nodded and said, "Yes."

"That lord went to the study with Mr. Wei at night, and hasn't come back until now."

Su Ying thought that Xiao Jin should go to deal with the disaster.

The housekeeper had someone bring breakfast over. Today, there are three dishes, one soup, and a plate of freshly baked meat buns.

She picked up the meat bun and took a bite. Suddenly, she missed Uncle He's craftsmanship very much, and she didn't know how many days she would have to wait to eat it.

A plate of steamed buns went down, and when she was about to start with the dumplings, the servant girl came to report that Zhou Xiangrong begged to see her.

Su Ying swallowed the dumplings and let the servant girl lead the people in.

Zhou Xiangrong was still wearing the dress from yesterday, which looked a little wrinkled, but it still did not damage her elegant temperament. From a distance, she was as beautiful and gentle as a lotus emerging from water.

"The little girl pays her respects to the empress."

Su Ying took another dumpling and ate it into her mouth to signal her to get up.

Zhou Xiangrong raised his eyes and glanced at Su Ying, with a faint look of reverence in his eyes, "My little girl came here today to tell my mother that the reason why my little girl was able to cure the disease was because she got an orphan book, which happened to have a book about records of that plague."

Su Ying's expression paused, and her gaze fell directly on her face. The more she looked at this face, the more she felt that it looked like someone who had fallen outside the capital, "What orphan copy?"

Zhou Xiangrong took out a booklet from his body and presented it to Su Ying.

Zhou Qing took the booklet and handed it to Su Ying.

Su Ying signaled Zhou Qing to put the brochure aside and read it after she was full. For her, eating is a very important thing and she doesn't like to be disturbed.

Zhou Xiangrong just stood with lowered eyebrows and was not dissatisfied at all because of Su Ying's ignorance.

After she was full, Su Ying put down her chopsticks and picked up the lonely book to read.

There is a bookmark in the lonely book, and the position of this bookmark is the page where the epidemic is recorded.

Su Ying took a closer look, and the illnesses recorded on it were indeed similar to those of the epidemic, and there were also prescriptions for treatment below, which were exactly the same as those given to her by Zhou Xiangrong.

This proves that she is not lying.

Su Ying closed the lonely book and said, "Then do you know medical skills yourself?"

"Hui Niangniang, the little girl has some medical skills, but it's not that great."

"Where did you learn your medical skills?"

"Back to your mother, my father didn't like my little girl since I was a child. The little girl grew up with the nanny. The nanny knew some medicine and taught the little girl. The little girl is also very interested in medical skills. When she grows up, she also finds someone to learn some secretly."

There is nothing wrong with this explanation.

"You are so courageous. You know a little bit about yourself and dare to enter the epidemic area to treat people with a single book."

Zhou Xiangrong said with a firm expression: "Madam, although my daughter has not seen much of the world, she also knows how much harm this epidemic will bring to the people. My daughter hopes to contribute to the country and do something for the people, so I came here boldly. Please forgive my daughter's recklessness."

Frank, humble and unobtrusive, he is really different from those delicate little girls in Beijing.

This is Su Ying's most intuitive impression of Zhou Xiangrong.

"Regardless of whether it is because you saw the cure for the disease from an isolated copy, you have cured the diseases of the people in the city. Even if you have made meritorious service, I will reward you well. Tell me, what do you want?"

Zhou Xiangrong said softly: "Thank you, ma'am. It's an honor for the little girl to share her worries. I don't dare to take credit for it. I just don't know if I can let my daughter follow her when she returns to Beijing? My daughter has been out for a while, and it's time to return to Beijing."

Su Ying did not refuse, "Okay."

"Thank you, Ma'am."

Su Ying asked unintentionally: "By the way, when did you leave the capital?"

Zhou Xiangrong said with a erratic expression, "Going back to your mother, it was two months ago."

Two months ago, that wasn't the same time she was out of town.

Su Ying remembered that the woman who fell to the ground had injuries on her body. Even if the skin was healed, it would not be possible to completely restore the skin to its original state, and it would definitely leave scars. She planned to find a chance to verify it.

"If there is nothing to do, my daughter will not disturb my mother's rest, and my daughter will leave."

"Back off."

"yes."

"My lord, who is Miss Zhou?" Zhou Qing looked at Zhou Xiangrong's leaving back and asked in doubt.

"The eldest lady of Bo'anhou Mansion."

"Why is the eldest lady of the Hou Mansion here?"

"The one who came to treat the disease for the people, she cured the disease in the city."

Zhou Qing was very surprised, could the disease be cured so easily?

Su Ying picked up the lonely book and read it again. She always felt that there was something wrong with this matter, but everything made sense, maybe she really was thinking too much.

Zhou Xiangrong closed the door after returning to his guest room.

The moment the door closed, her supple eyebrows gradually sank, completely no longer the gentle look just now, and there was a shrewdness between the brows.

I didn’t expect that the queen was really alive, and I didn’t expect that she could meet her here, but it’s really, really great...

In the study.

Xiao Jin called all the officials, large and small, from Los Angeles over, and asked them to explain to him the current situation in Los Angeles one by one from last night until now.

These little officials all said that Xiao Jin was a high-ranking official from the middle of the capital and dared not make any mistakes, so they explained the situation to Xiao Jin in every detail.

The drought in Los Angeles is still not under control. If it doesn't rain for a day, the drought will continue, and more and more people will be affected by the disaster. This is an urgent problem to be solved.

After thoroughly understanding the situation in Los Angeles, Xiao Jin just asked them to prepare more places to accommodate the victims who might continue to come to Los Angeles, and then ensure that the people have enough drinking water.

After discussing the matter, Xiao Jin asked the rest of the officials to step down, leaving only Wei Zhongming alone.

Wei Zhongming's eyes lit up, thinking that Xiao Jin was going to entrust him with a heavy responsibility.

"My lord, if you have any other orders, just say so, I will do my best to do it."
