“Princess, your humble servant is here.”
Nanny Bai was just standing not far away, hearing her mistress call, she immediately walked over, respectfully bowing and standing next to the Elder Princess.
“Command the guards to drive those people away,” the Elder Princess instructed Nanny Bai.
“Princess, you mean…”
Nanny Bai was somewhat taken aback by the order.
The princess has always been kind, especially knowing that these people are seeking medical help, why would she have her guards chase them away? This doesn’t seem like something the princess of her household would do.
“Cousin, if they want to wait, let them wait; why do you care what they do?” Second Prince asked, puzzled after hearing her words, and after glancing at his elder brother, he advised his cousin.
“What do you two little ones know?” the Elder Princess gave them a glare.
“Those people are the stewards of the various households in Jian’an City. If they truly want medical advice, even posting a notice at my mansion would suffice, but they’re secretly waiting – what does that imply?”
“What do you mean?” the Second Prince was still rather puzzled.
“Are you suggesting that they’re all aiming to recruit that woman physician, cousin?” the Eldest Prince suddenly understood his cousin’s meaning.
In fact, for each mansion, recruiting some people is commonplace, everyone has a need for physicians from time to time.
But them clandestinely waiting outside the Princess’s Mansion, that was indeed inappropriate. Not only were they disregarding Princess’s dignity, what if the woman physician had no intentions to join them?
“Nanny Bai, you go, tell the guards, this is my order.”
He looked at Nanny Bai and gave the command.
Everyone knew his cousin has always been kind-hearted, he did not want others to feel that she had changed; therefore, it is better for him to take the initiative.
“Yes, Princess, Eldest Prince.” Nanny Bai complied and left the courtyard.
“Cousin, won’t you be making a mountain out of a molehill? That woman physician might…”
As Nanny Bai left, the Eldest Prince looked at the Elder Princess, however, before he could even finish his sentence, he saw her raised hand resting on the table and immediately stopped speaking.
“Regardless of what the lady thinks, she should not have any issues outside my mansion, as for other places, I can ignore those.” the Elder Princess said.
Furthermore, how could someone who could even cure her severe poisoning possibly be swayed by mere invitations from few households? Most likely, she wouldn’t even be attracted to the offer from the imperial palace itself, right?
“You two are still too naive.”
She looked at her two brothers and sighed, shaking her head.
“The day when I just woke up, I did not get a clear look at the young lady’s appearance. However, based solely on the account of her actions and conversations with you in these few days, I can tell she does not care much for your royal statuses.”
“Think about it, she could communicate with you two on equal terms, how would it be with others? If they were to kindly invite her, then so be it. But those servants in the households are already overbearing; how could they treat a woman with merely a physician’s title courteously? They would surely behave arrogantly.”
“If they inadvertently offend her and remain oblivious, they would still believe they were in the right. This could even give my mansion a bad impression in the heart of that young lady.”
