Hot Search Alert! The Princess Goes Viral Worldwide-Chapter 99
The Yin Medicine Family has endured for over a thousand years. Its founding ancestor, Yin Jingjie, was a renowned physician of Great Qi.
Legend has it that Yin Jingjie, an orphan, was recognized for his exceptional talent by Princess Changning of Great Qi and was admitted to the Imperial Medical Academy for study.
After Princess Changning passed away unexpectedly, Yin Jingjie left the Imperial Medical Academy.
He traveled across the land, treating countless impoverished people, devising numerous miraculous prescriptions, and documenting his medical experiences in books, leaving behind a priceless legacy for Chinese medicine.
Following his death, his descendants honored his final wish, living in seclusion for generations and never stepping into the public eye.
They only took in disciples, spreading the knowledge of Chinese medicine far and wide.
This tradition persisted even into modern times.
Though the Yin Medicine Family remained hidden deep in the mountains, unknown to most of the world, many of today's leading medical figures had studied under them.
For instance, Chairman Tian, after graduating as a top student, was selected to study with the Yin Medicine Family and mastered their life-saving acupuncture techniques.
Most members of the Chinese Medicine Association had also trained under the family.
Nan Xi knew these secrets because her mother, Yin Rong, was part of the Yin Medicine Family.
Yin Rong was not a blood descendant but an adopted child raised within the family, where she honed extraordinary medical skills.
As an adult, she ventured out to practice medicine and met Nan Xi’s father, with whom she fell in love.
The Yin Medicine Family did not restrict its members' freedom—anyone who grew weary of solitude and wished to leave was permitted to do so.
However, once they left, they could never return.
After marrying Nan Xi’s father, Yin Rong used her medical expertise and prescriptions to revive the struggling Nan family, elevating it to prosperity.
Yet, as the Nan family flourished, Nan Xi’s father grew unfaithful.
Heartbroken and regretful for leaving her family, Yin Rong passed away before the age of 40.
Before her death, she revealed her origins to her daughter Nan Xi and left her a token, telling her that if her father ever mistreated her, she could seek help from the Yin Medicine Family.
After Yin Rong’s death, Nan Xi’s father had a change of heart and doted on his daughter, so Nan Xi never mentioned the Yin Medicine Family again.
Had it not been for Gu Nanyan, Nan Xi might have never recalled the family’s existence.
The family was simply too low-profile.
According to her mother, every member of the Yin Medicine Family was obsessed with medicine, learning it from the moment they could speak. By the age of 15, they would apprentice under medical luminaries who had once studied with the family.
At 20, they could choose whether to remain in the outside world or return to the family.
The Yin Medicine Family also ran its own hospital, where incurable cases from outside were sent to be treated by these medical devotees.
Nan Xi couldn’t understand why the family chose seclusion—with their skills and ancient prescriptions, fame and fortune would be guaranteed if they stepped into the world.
Though puzzled, she saw no issue in using them to her advantage.
It was said that Princess Changning of Great Qi had once shown kindness to Yin Jingjie, and for over a millennium, the Yin Medicine Family had worshipped her, preserving many of her portraits.
The Celestial Health Cultivation Technique was Princess Changning’s practice, and Yin Jingjie, having spent years by her side, must have witnessed her performing it.
If someone from the Yin family were summoned, they could instantly determine whether Gu Nanyan’s technique was genuine.
Moreover, the Yin family’s prestige was such that their word carried immense weight. If they declared Gu Nanyan’s technique a fake, no one would dare question it.
Given the gravity of the Celestial Health Cultivation Technique, experts were hesitant to confirm its authenticity outright.
Verification would take time.
Nan Xi decided to use this interval to visit the Yin Medicine Family in the mountains.
But first, she wanted to witness the spectacle in the conference room.
The room was packed with dignitaries, all waiting for Gu Nanyan.
Even Nan Xi, no stranger to high society, felt her legs tremble with nervousness. She was certain Gu Nanyan, a country bumpkin, would be too terrified to speak.
In matters of sophistication, Nan Xi believed herself leagues ahead of Gu Nanyan.
Normally, she wouldn’t bother comparing herself to others in this regard.
But lately, she had been pushed to the brink, her confidence shattered, leaving her to cling to this one point of pride.
Slipping into the conference room through the back, Nan Xi found no seats left and had to stand by the wall.
When Gu Nanyan arrived at the production team, Director Rong rushed to greet her: "Your Majesty, you’re finally here! You wouldn’t believe the crowd in the conference room—it’s filled with top-tier figures."
Wiping sweat from his brow, Director Rong was about to list the attendees when he noticed Zhan Lingfeng beside Gu Nanyan.
He froze for a moment—how had he overlooked the CEO?!
Would Zhan Lingfeng be offended? Flustered, Director Rong extended both hands. "CEO Zhan, hello, hello!"
Zhan Lingfeng gave a dignified nod and shook his hand briefly.
Director Rong felt uneasy, afraid that Zhan Lingfeng would blame him for his negligence, but the meeting room was just ahead, leaving him no time to dwell on it.
Sigh. Initially, he had only planned to produce a simple variety show.
Yet things had snowballed beyond his control, and now he was barely holding on.
The source of this c𝓸ntent is frёeweɓηovel.coɱ.
Finally, they reached the meeting room door. Through the window, he could see it packed with people—seats filled and many more standing in the open spaces.
Zhan Lingfeng, concerned for Gu Nanyan, reached out and held her hand.
In such a setting, without a strong presence, one could easily be overwhelmed or cornered by questioning.
Zhan Lingfeng himself had honed his composure over years of experience.
Fearing Gu Nanyan might be bullied, he considered entering first to command the room before letting her in.
It was like a press conference—without a steady hand to anchor the flow, chaos could erupt.
Gu Nanyan gave his hand a reassuring squeeze.
Zhan Lingfeng met her gaze, his eyes lingering for a moment before he finally stepped aside.
As soon as he moved, Sister Li, the assistant Feng Chengxi, and Susu immediately surrounded Gu Nanyan.
Gu Nanyan lifted her chin and instructed Feng Chengxi to play a song—a battle anthem—through the meeting room’s speakers, at maximum volume.
Without hesitation, Feng Chengxi queued the music.
The thunderous anthem erupted, stunning everyone inside.
The crowd in the meeting room first gasped in shock, then erupted into clamor—what was this? The music was deafening, earsplitting!
Just as their irritation peaked, the music cut off abruptly.
From roaring intensity to utter silence, in an instant.
The crowd froze, still processing what had happened—
Then, with a creak, the meeting room door swung open.
Every eye turned toward it.
