The Divine Doctor And A Common Farmer

Chapter 1449 - 1533: Must Drag Them Out No Matter What

The Hidden Guards loyal to Qinghe discovered something—they had been completely played by Dong Huiying and were far too passive. Even though the one being pursued was Dong Huiying, she was as slippery as an eel.

Since entering the city, every entry and exit checkpoint was closely monitored, and everyone had to be searched, regardless of whether they were entering or leaving. They checked each potential person, but were unable to catch their target. Instead, they unexpectedly captured a few fugitives and notorious bandits.

But over these days, they could only follow the clues left by Dong Huiying, which was an infuriatingly passive position. The Hidden Guards were burning with anger, determined that this time they would keep at it with Dong Huiying, and would dig her out even if they had to search three feet underground.

Dong Huiying bought some herbs under the guise of cooking. She decided to concoct a potion of invisibility. This potion could make the words on paper disappear.

After preparing the potion, she wrote a letter, applied the potion to the ink, and watched as the ink vanished before her eyes.

However, when she went to the inn to send the letter, she unexpectedly learned of a new policy.

Letters now had to be opened and inspected; they could only be sent after being confirmed harmless and verified.

Dong Huiying pondered for a while and learned that this new policy had been issued that morning.

She touched her forehead, realizing that the Hidden Guards were surely worried about her communicating with the outside world and feared she might call for reinforcements, which is why they took such measures.

She touched the letters she intended to send to the Capital, knowing that inside the earth-colored envelope was a blank sheet of paper that required the sprinkling of clear water to reveal the writing.

It seemed the letter wouldn’t be sent? She sighed slightly and then frowned.

"Even a cornered rabbit will bite back!!" She narrowed her eyes sinisterly, feeling a bit angry, but she also made a decision due to this matter, she would really confront these guys!!

By the time Dong Huiying returned to the Food As Heaven branch, it was already evening, with the lights coming on.

"Is this the new kitchen helper, Helper Liang?"

The branch shopkeeper was fiddling with an abacus, and Dong Huiying instinctively displayed a silly, guileless smile.

Earlier, Dong Huiying had encountered ’Sister Su’ in a noodle shop, who now looked surprised.

There had been quite a few applicants at the Food As Heaven branch these days, but the shopkeeper had very high standards, and the skills of those people were too ordinary. Surprisingly, this seemingly foolish person turned out to be skilled and actually became a kitchen helper at the restaurant?

A waiter nearby gave a thumbs-up and praised the new helper endlessly! Especially the spicy, savory, delicious boiled pork slices, which were so good that people wished they could swallow their tongues along with them.

Dong Huiying scratched the back of her head and smiled foolishly, while the shopkeeper, looking amiable, patted her on the shoulder, "Do a good job, at Food As Heaven we never mistreat our own!"

Dong Huiying’s mouth twitched violently, almost knocking the wind out of her. The reason was, of course, that the shopkeeper’s pat landed right on her injured shoulder.

However, even though the pain was agonizing, she still had to maintain a honest appearance.

Dong Huiying: "..." She was indeed exhausted!

Only when she arrived at the room assigned to her, did she close the door, grit her teeth, rub her fists, stomp her feet, and clutch her shoulder with a look of great pain, yet unable to cry out.

In the night,

a carriage approached slowly.

"Young master!"

Ah Lian helped Qinghe down from the carriage.

Qinghe’s face was slightly pale.
