Those whom the Empress Dowager could command Su Jin to treat were people related to her, members of the royal family.
Besides, Su Jin charged for her medical services, and the Emperor couldn't say much to the Empress Dowager, as the matter concerned lives.
But now that Su Jin was belittled by the Empress Dowager, even returning the money in hand, would the Emperor agree?
It was precisely because it was a good deed that Su Jin agreed readily.
By giving the money to Princess Nanzhang, if later the Empress Dowager came looking for her, she could simply say that Princess Nanzhang acted on her own, without the Empress Dowager's knowledge, thereby shirking all responsibility. What could Su Jin do?
She wanted the Empress Dowager to know.
However, Su Jin felt that retrieving the consultation fee was probably just Princess Nanzhang's idea; it was unlikely that the Empress Dowager would be so shortsighted.
Unexpectedly to Su Jin—
One hour later, Nanny Li really came to see her.
