Chapter 1504: Her Highness the Princess (54)

“Very well, then open a medical clinic. Do your best to spread its reputation and attract the attention of my imperial father and mother. When the time comes, I'll have them bestow a plaque upon you.”

“Thank you, Your Highness.”

Everything proceeded in an orderly fashion, and as the Grand Princess, Tang Guo was instead the most idle of them all.

Every day, she drank tea, nibbled on snacks, and listened to the National Teacher praise her with sweet words. Life was truly comfortable enough to make others envious and resentful.

Even the System wished he could transform into a human and experience everything Tang Guo enjoyed.

The first to achieve success was Lü Yuzhi. Within three days, her clinic had opened.

At first, there was little business. Later, she came up with an idea—free consultations for ten days.

As expected, poor families began coming to seek treatment. They had no other choice.

Especially since the physician at the clinic was only a girl in her teens. It made them uneasy, yet they couldn't bear to leave, so they decided to treat a dead horse as if it were alive and give it a try.

Unexpectedly, Lü Yuzhi became famous overnight with a single diagnosis. From then on, patients seeking her treatment arrived in an endless stream.

In just ten days, she had earned the title of Little Divine Doctor throughout the imperial capital.

After returning to normal operations, countless people invited her to treat them, including nobles and high-ranking officials.

Naturally, this aroused dissatisfaction among the other medical clinics, and they prepared to teach the young girl a lesson.

However, Lü Yuzhi had not spent all these years following Tang Guo for nothing. Though young, she possessed plenty of wit and was not a girl who could be easily manipulated.

Unable to gain any advantage against her, the other clinics planned to use the influential people behind them to pressure her.

Before they could act, they heard that the Grand Princess had visited Lü Yuzhi's clinic and was chatting and laughing with her.

More detailed information soon emerged—they knew each other, and the clinic itself had apparently been funded by the Grand Princess.

The people who had intended to deal with Lü Yuzhi immediately abandoned all such thoughts.

Could they afford to offend someone like that?

No, they absolutely could not. The only thing they could do was retreat.

They merely hoped that the Grand Princess would not remember their earlier intentions.

Lü Yuzhi also chose not to complain. She even said that she couldn't deprive other clinics of business and announced that she would only accept twenty patients a day in the future.

Seeing this, the other clinics were filled with shame. They realized that their broad-mindedness couldn't even compare to that of a young girl, which was truly embarrassing.

Tang Guo liked sitting behind the curtain inside the clinic, watching Lü Yuzhi treat her patients. Recently, she had become rather bored.

There was still some time before she could deal with Lü Qing.

Both Lin Yuexiang and Lü Yufan needed time before their efforts would bear fruit. Everything had to proceed step by step. There was no need to rush. Otherwise, it would be boring and wouldn't hurt the other party enough.

On this day, Lü Yuzhi had already treated her twentieth patient and was preparing to close the clinic.

In truth, appointments had already been booked three days in advance.

That was only because she had imposed a limit, allowing reservations to be made only three days ahead. Otherwise, she would simply shut the clinic and rest.

Tang Guo was also about to step out from behind the curtain and bring Lü Yuzhi back to the Princess Manor.

Just then, someone suddenly rushed into the clinic from outside. Upon seeing Lü Yuzhi, he grabbed her and said anxiously, “Thank heavens, Little Divine Doctor, please come with me.”

Lü Yuzhi knew martial arts. She casually brushed his hand away and said with a serious little face, “What is it? If you want treatment, please line up. If you can't wait, go to another clinic. Those old physicians are all highly skilled.”

“The Second Prince Consort said this matter can only be handled by the Little Divine Doctor. Please come with me. Once the treatment is done, the Second Prince Consort will surely reward you handsomely.”

The Second Prince Consort?

A deeper look appeared in Lü Yuzhi's eyes. She glanced back toward Tang Guo behind the curtain before smiling.

“Sorry, you'll have to line up. I don't care what kind of horse he is, everyone has to line up.”
