Rebirth: The Journey of an Heiress novel Chapter 1526

Capítulo 1526: Chapter 1521: Long Live the Emperor

Bai Qingyan had not yet arrived at the treatment center when Doctor Hong was already tirelessly leading the doctors in their busy work.

Throughout the journey, although Doctor Hong was researching the epidemic and pondering a few prescriptions, due to the constant travel, he hadn’t tried them out. He consistently discussed with the accompanying doctors, generously sharing all his researched prescriptions for their discussion.

Afterward, the doctors selected three prescriptions that were agreed upon by the majority.

Doctor Hong now adheres to the prescriptions and divides the patients into three groups, using three different medicines to test which concoction can have an effect on the epidemic.

With medicines covering his face, Doctor Hong, along with other doctors, is assigning tasks to determine which doctors will care for which group of patients. The soldiers who came to oversee the treatment center also followed Lu Ping’s orders, separating the patients, and tying different colored cloth strips on their arms to distinguish which prescription of medicine they are using.

Naturally, there were doctors who initially, in a moment of rashness, followed Bai Qingyan to the Yan Kingdom. Now witnessing the dead along the roadsides of the Yan and the constant burning of corpses, they grew fearful and wanted to retreat.

Doctor Hong did not force those individuals; they gathered under a tree outside the treatment center, discussing the next steps.

“All the way here, because His Majesty is also present, we couldn’t back out. If only we’d pretended to be ill like Doctor Huang, then at least within the Zhou borders we wouldn’t have had to come here to care for patients!”

“Indeed, this epidemic is fierce, even more terrifying than the previous one in our country! Anyone infected is certainly doomed!”

“Had I known how severe this epidemic is, I would never have come here, considering these Yan citizens aren’t our Zhou people!”

“Exactly! Now that we’re here and dispatched to this treatment center, it’s not right not to help, but going in to help is scary…”

“We just told the King we would stay here because we’re closer to Zhou and can return faster! Let’s think of a solution instead of lamenting here.”

When Bai Qingyan arrived, she saw a few doctors standing under the tree from afar.

A troop sped toward them, and the doctors noticed.

Someone looked toward the direction of the dust-ridden speeding horse, eyes widening: “It’s His Majesty!”

A few doctors quickly turned their heads: “His Majesty? Why is His Majesty returning here? This place is so dangerous!” 𝙧𝙚𝙚𝔀𝒆𝓫𝓷𝙤𝓿𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝙤𝓶

“Could it be… His Majesty knows we planned to leave and is coming… to punish us?”

“No… surely not!”

Their backs stiff, knowing they are on the Yan Kingdom’s land, although they initially volunteered to follow His Majesty to the Yan territory as “righteous men,” the Emperor wouldn’t easily kill them, but if he knew they were hesitating, he might punish and send them back. How could they face their hometown neighbors then?

While quickly calculating how to answer the Emperor’s inquiry, Bai Qingyan, riding gracefully, had already reached them. She reined her horse and dismounted, and they knelt down.

Bai Qingyan lightly supported the foremost person, helped him up, glanced at the trembling backs of the group, wisely saying nothing, and remarked: “You gentlemen are here discussing strategies to save lives, your hard work deserves my gratitude…”
