The book has no strength, the female supporting role just wants to survive

Jiang Tunan woke up from a nightmare and found himself still on Xiao Mingrui's back.

"woke up?"

Still a low voice.

Jiang Tunan subconsciously touched Xiao Mingrui's back, vocal, these muscles are so tight.

"What are you doing."

Xiao Mingrui's mood didn't change much, he still looked cold and indifferent, but Jiang Tunan didn't notice that the tip of Xiao Mingrui's ears was slightly flushed.

"It's like this, cousin Mingrui. Sometimes I drool when I sleep, so every time I wake up I touch my pillow to see if there is saliva."

Jiang Tunan: (stiff)

Xiao Mingrui: What happened that I suddenly don’t want to recite it anymore?

"Cousin Mingrui, haven't you reached the palace gate yet? Where are my uncle and the others?"

Only then did Jiang Tunan realize that they were the only two people on the road.

"We won't go to the palace gate. We will send you directly to the Imperial Medical Bureau. You will live in the Imperial Medical Bureau for the time being. It will be convenient for you to work."

Xiao Mingrui's tone was somewhat teasing, but Jiang Tunan was confused. How could she have forgotten about this?

Seeing that Jiang Tunan didn't say anything, Xiao Mingrui explained softly,

"Don't worry, there are also female officials living in the Imperial Medical Bureau, so there is nothing wrong with a woman like you living there."

"Can women be officials?"

Jiang Tunan became interested, as she had never seen what a female official looked like.

"That's different. The female officials here are just like palace officials. They manage the lower-level palace maids and take care of the food, clothing, and daily life of the concubines in the palace."

That means it's almost the same as the eunuch chief steward.

"arrive."

Xiao Mingrui gently put Jiang Tunan down. There was already someone waiting at the door of the Imperial Medical Bureau. Upon seeing Xiao Mingrui and Jiang Tunan arrive, a woman dressed as a palace maid immediately came forward to greet them.

"But Miss Jiang?"

Jiang Tunan nodded and glanced at the surroundings out of the corner of his eye.

Behind the palace maid was a red-painted door with the paint slightly peeling off. The plaque above the door was surrounded by a gold border, and in the middle were three large characters "Imperial Medical Bureau" written in golden font from right to left.

Just standing at the door, you can smell the distinct scent of Chinese medicine.

"I can only send you here. It's not convenient for me to go in. I will ask Chunhua to come and accompany you tomorrow. You should go and settle down today."

Xiao Mingrui left after giving some detailed instructions. Jiang Tunan found his residence with the help of the palace maid.

"Miss Jiang will temporarily live here from now on. If you need anything, you can tell me."

"thank you."

"I don't want to be a slave."

Jiang Tunan looked around the room and smiled bitterly. He didn't expect that he would still live in the doctor's duty room in ancient times.

"Miss Jiang, you haven't eaten yet, right? The Imperial Medical Bureau has a public kitchen for the ladies to eat in. Since Miss Jiang was appointed by the Emperor himself, she can eat in the public kitchen just like the ladies."

Jiang Tunan touched his stomach and felt that he was indeed hungry. But after thinking about his legs, he hesitated and said,

"Is it far?"

The maid smiled.

"Don't worry, Miss Jiang. We'll be there in less than half an incense stick of time."

"Then please lead the way, young lady."

According to the palace maid, the public kitchen of the Imperial Medical Bureau, which is the modern employee canteen, is divided into male and female canteens, so Jiang Tunan went to the female employee canteen at this time.

The closer they got to the public kitchen, the more people they saw wearing female official uniforms, and all along the way, they were looking at Jiang Tunan curiously.

"Ms. Jiang, this way please."

Jiang Tunan saw that the palace maid who led the way was standing at the door and had no intention of going in, and asked in confusion,

"Won't you come in with me?"

The maid bowed her head and said respectfully,

"Miss Jiang, you are joking. Only the ladies are qualified to enter this public kitchen. I am naturally not qualified to enter."

After Jiang Tunan expressed his understanding, he went into the public kitchen alone. The furnishings inside were the same as those for banquets in the countryside.

More than a dozen red-painted square tables were neatly placed in the hall, and a long bench was placed on the four sides of each square table.

"Are you here to dine, sir?"

The cook in the public kitchen saw Jiang Tunan standing there looking around, and he was not wearing a palace dress, so she went up to ask.

"Yes, I just came here today, and I'm not very familiar with this place."

When the cook heard that Jiang Tunan was new, she enthusiastically invited Jiang Tunan to sit down and brought her today's meal.

Jiang Tunan sat on the bench, looking at the work meal in front of him, thinking that one day he would actually be able to make a living as a civil servant.

Ah! Jiang Tunan! You are amazing!

After eating, Jiang Tunan went back to his residence to rest. No one came to ask Jiang Tunan to work until noon the next day. Finally, Jiang Tunan was woken up by Chunhua who came late.

So Jiang Tunan, who had just woken up, caught the good time when the public kitchen was ready for dinner.

Who is living this kind of life of eating and sleeping, sleeping and eating? !

Jiang Tunan: Turns out it’s me, hehe.

"Miss Jiang?!"

Jiang Tunan didn't expect to meet an acquaintance in the Imperial Medical Bureau.

Wen Yinzhi was also slightly shocked when he saw Jiang Tunan. At first he thought he had seen it wrong, but when he got closer he saw that it was indeed Jiang Tunan.

"Mr. Wen, long time no see."

Wen Yinzhi looked more haggard than before, with some ink stains on his sleeves and faint blue stubble visible on his chin.

"Were you abused in the Imperial Medical Bureau?"

Jiang Tunan walked around Wen Yinzhi several times, looking at him carefully.

Wen Yinzhi felt a little embarrassed.

"I have been studying the condition of the Great Prince Dayin lately, and have been reading medical books and ancient texts day and night, so I look a little disheveled."

Jiang Tunan thought of Liangchuan Zemu's weak appearance sitting in the wheelchair. He seemed to be seriously ill.

"Yes! Since Miss Jiang is in the Imperial Medical Bureau, why don't I invite Miss Jiang to join the research."

Jiang Tunan: I really admire you, Lao Liu. I just had a comfortable day and you're already finding something for me to do. Can you please stop being like an NPC and give me a mission as soon as I get close to you?

Although he was complaining in his heart, Jiang Tunan still maintained a friendly appearance.

"I'm sorry, Master Wen, I've been slightly injured recently and my legs and feet are a bit inconvenient, so I really can't help you."

Jiang Tunan staggered weakly. Whoever wanted to treat this damn devil could do so. She wouldn't treat him anyway.

"In that case, I won't force Miss Jiang."

Wen Yinzhi looked a little lonely, with a hint of pain in his eyes.

According to the development of the plot, Jiang Tunan would normally ask Wen Yinzhi what happened, but this would definitely trigger the next plot point. Jiang Tunan wouldn't do that. 886 you.

"Okay, I'm going to eat now. Bye."

Jiang Tunan turned around without hesitation and limped towards the public kitchen. Her back looked like a ghost was chasing her.

Wen Yinzhi: ... (broken)
