A four-year-old medical prodigy descended to the mortal realm, and the entire capital sought her tre

The light that had not yet completely faded from Zhou Ruo's eyes stopped disappearing. She asked with some confusion, "Grandmother?"

The Dowager Princess nodded slowly and said, "Just like An Chang and An Nan, call me Grandmother."

The light in Zhou Ruo's eyes instantly shone again.

Her eyes curved into crescents, and her rosy cheeks resembled blooming peach blossoms.

Zhou Ruo immediately called out, "Grandmother!" Her voice was clear and bright, echoing throughout the hall.

"Oh! What a good child!" The Empress Dowager was very pleased and hugged her, stroking her hair affectionately.

When you're out in the world, you give yourself your own identity.

Zhou Ruo, on the other hand, made himself a member of the imperial family through his own abilities.

Zhao Yucheng and Ji Ping were stunned by what they saw, and Prince An and Princess Yu were also surprised by this turn of events.

Prince An could no longer remain seated. He stood up, suppressing his emotions, and said, "Mother, I'm afraid this is inappropriate!"

"Is this inappropriate?" The Dowager Consort gently pulled Zhou Ruo out of her embrace, looking at Prince An with a firm gaze.

"Ruo'er is my savior. What's wrong with her calling me 'Grandmother'?"

"But...but..." There were some things that Prince An couldn't say in front of so many people.

But the Dowager knew what he was worried about.

Zhou Ruo entered the general's mansion by chance and became the general's adopted daughter, but she was always the foundation of an ordinary commoner.

Prince An was worried that Zhou Ruo, who came from an ordinary background, was now calling the Dowager Consort "Grandmother," and that people who didn't know better would think she was Prince An's daughter.

Those who know about it will definitely have objections, and Zhou Ruo will probably be criticized in the future.

This is not a good thing for the Prince's Mansion, Zhou Ruo, or even the General's Mansion.

"Are you worried that if Ruo'er calls me 'Grandmother,' she'll have the air of royalty in public, which is incompatible with her status?"

When his mother saw through his thoughts, Prince An felt embarrassed and turned back to sit in his chair.

"You don't need to worry about that. I will inform the Emperor one day and grant Ruo'er the title of 'Princess'. Is that alright?"

"Princess?"

"Princess!"

......

Everyone in the hall exclaimed in surprise.

Seeing the expression on Prince An's face that said "Mother has gone mad," Princess Yu calmed her own uneasy feelings.

She spoke to the Dowager Consort with a gentle smile, "Mother, An'nan, your own granddaughter hasn't even been granted the title of 'Princess' yet."

The Dowager Consort didn't take it to heart, saying, "When Nan'er reaches the right age, she will naturally be granted the title of 'Princess.' She can't escape that title."

The Empress Dowager thought to herself: The immortal instructed her to both assist Zhou Ruo and protect her.

So, giving her the status of a princess should be a great help and a good solution.

Seeing that Prince An was unhappy, Zhao Yucheng took the initiative to say, "The Empress Dowager is so kind to my daughter, we are flattered and overwhelmed."

However, Zhou Ruo is still too young to bear such a favor from you, so perhaps...

The Dowager interrupted Zhao Yucheng: "General Zhao, there's no need to worry. My mind is made up. From this day forward, Zhou Ruo will call me 'Grandmother.'"

"I will request the title of Princess from the Emperor. Now that I have survived, the Emperor will surely grant my request."

Zhou Ruo watched as everyone argued over the title of "Princess," and she was completely baffled.

"Grandmother, what is a 'princess'?"

The Dowager Princess patiently explained, "Princess is a title, just like your father is a general, and Uncle An is a prince. You are a princess."

"Then what use is a 'princess'?" Zhou Ruo was still puzzled.

At this moment, An Chang, who had been silently standing beside Zhao Jinzhong, suddenly stepped forward and deliberately teased Zhou Ruo:

"Little sister Zhou Ruo, now that you're a 'princess,' you can call me 'brother' now!"

"Huh?" Zhou Ruo looked disgusted, then said seriously to the Dowager Consort, "Grandmother, I'd rather not be a princess anymore!"

"An Chang!" The Dowager Empress scolded An Chang, her face showing a rare reproach. "When did it become your place to speak here!"

The Empress Dowager's voice wasn't loud, but An Chang was so frightened that she shrank back into her chair.

"Ruo'er, don't listen to An Chang's nonsense. Once you become a princess, no one will dare to bully you. This will be your protective shield."

amulet?

Zhou Ruo herself has a protective talisman. In this mortal world, as long as her physical body can be protected from harm, no one can kill her.

Thinking this way, the title of "princess" didn't mean much to her, and she noticed that Prince An and the Princess Consort didn't look too happy.

Father and Mother also looked somewhat troubled.

Zhao Jinzhong, standing to the side, was carefully calculating in his mind for Zhou Ruo.

He had no idea why the Empress Dowager would bestow such a great reward upon Zhou Ruo.

For a doctor to cure a patient, there is no need to reward him with a title like "princess".

But since Zhou Ruo arrived at the General's Mansion, how she healed him, and how she treated wounded soldiers and Zhao Yucheng in the military camp...

He observed how the people in the city were treated.

Although Zhou Ruo was always eager to find the source of the illness in order to restore her spiritual power.

But when she was actually facing the source of the disease, she never acted selfishly and did her best to save lives.

Zhao Jinzhong knew how difficult Zhou Ruo's journey had been. How could a four-year-old child have come to this?

The status of a princess might not be of much significance to Zhou Ruo in terms of wealth or protection.

However, this identity can help Zhou Ruo enter the circles of royalty and nobility, and help her to come into contact with more people who have performed great deeds.

More patients who have performed great deeds.

"Ruo Ruo." Zhao Jinzhong called out to Zhou Ruo and gestured for her to come to his side.

Zhou Ruo understood Zhao Jinzhong's gesture and happily skipped over to his side.

Zhao Jinzhong leaned close to Zhou Ruo's ear and whispered a few words to him.

Zhou Ruo's eyes visibly lit up.

After hearing Zhao Jinzhong's words, Zhou Ruo immediately shouted to the Dowager Consort, "Grandmother, I want to be a princess!"

As she spoke, Zhou Ruo jogged back to the Dowager Consort and asked, "Grandmother, when can I become a princess?"

The Empress Dowager was taken aback. The child's change of expression was beyond her expectations. She didn't know what Zhao Jinzhong had said to the child.

"No..." An Chang looked at Zhao Jinzhong in confusion, "What did you say to her?"

Zhao Jinzhong glanced at An Chang and said in a slightly sarcastic tone, "I told her that once she becomes a princess, she can pretend that An Chang doesn't exist."

"You...you...you...!!!" An Chang was speechless with anger.

The Dowager Consort touched Zhou Ruo's little face and said, "You cured Grandmother's illness. Grandmother will go and tell the Emperor to issue an edict as soon as possible."

"Ah? But I didn't cure your illness..." Zhou Ruoxin thought, "Will I not be able to call you 'Grandmother' anymore?"

Zhao Yucheng was startled by Zhou Ruo's words. "Ruo'er, what do you mean? Didn't you already cure the Dowager Consort?"

Zhao Yucheng broke out in a cold sweat instantly, fearing that Zhou Ruo might be accused of "deceiving the world and stealing a reputation".

Ji Ping's heart was in her throat. "Ruo'er, don't be silly."

"Mother, I'm not being silly."

As Zhou Ruo spoke, she placed her small hand into the Empress Dowager's hand, feeling the strange energy within her body.

The sensation seemed clearer than when I first saw the Dowager; the strange source of the illness felt like something spiritual.

Zhou Ruo shook her head, still unable to figure out what it was. "I can't get rid of that strange thing inside my grandmother's body yet."

Prince An glanced at Princess Yu and slowly stood up.

He already had many doubts about the fact that a child could cure illnesses, and just now his mother had absurdly wanted to give her the title of princess.

Prince An glared at An Chang and said, "I knew it! That brat An Chang was capable of anything!"

The change in Prince An's attitude instantly chilled the entire hall.

The Empress Dowager recalled what the immortal had said: only the girl from the General's Mansion could cure her illness.

What does Zhou Ruo mean by "not cured"?

If she hadn't been cured, how could she have woken up, gotten out of bed and walked, and even felt no discomfort in her body?

"Prince An, don't be so quick to dismiss the child. The fact that I'm still lucid and sitting here proves that Ruo'er wasn't lying."

Concerned that Prince An's attitude would frighten Zhou Ruo, the Dowager immediately stated her own attitude and stance.

"Ruo'er, talk to your grandmother properly. Why do you say it's not cured yet?"

Zhou Ruo frankly admitted: "My grandmother's illness was very strange. There was something in my grandmother's body that caused her to fall ill."

I only cured my grandmother's symptoms, but if this strange thing isn't removed, it will cause her illness to recur.

The Dowager Consort: "In that case, what should Grandmother do?"

Zhou Ru patted the Dowager Consort's hand and said with a smile, "Grandmother, don't worry, I'm here!"
