I have been dating Xiao Juechen, the king of war, for three years. I washed his hands and made soup for him, researched prescriptions for him that could alleviate his old ailments, and hid my sharp edge. I only wanted to be the little woman behind him.
But on the day before the wedding, in front of the civil and military officials of the court, he said that I was scheming and unworthy of him, and that he wanted to break off the engagement with me and marry his pitiful "White Lotus" cousin.
Before he could finish his words, I threw a piece of divorce paper in his face with my backhand.
"Xiao Juechen, it's not that you divorce me, it's that I divorce you. I, Su Lingxi, don't want this marriage!"
I took off the plain dress I wore for him, resumed my ancestral business, and opened a "Rejuvenation Hall" in the most prosperous area of the capital.
Half a year later, with my peerless medical skills, I became famous all over the capital and became wealthy.
If a dignitary wants to get a shot from me, he or she will need ten thousand taels of gold, and it depends on my mood.
Until one day, the housekeeper of Prince Zhan's Mansion knelt down at the door of my medical clinic with tears streaming down his face, saying that their prince's old illness had relapsed, and he had searched for famous doctors to no avail, and now he was completely exhausted.
What they were begging for was the legendary "Miracle Doctor Su" who could bring the dead back to life.
Oh, I forgot to mention that the doctor Su that everyone in the capital seeks to see is me.
I looked at the people kneeling on the ground, took a slow sip of tea, and smiled.
"You want me to save him? Yes. Let him come to me in person to ask for it."
