The divine doctor's concubine emptied the palace and went into exile

"Humph, you jinx, I've already told you to let your brother study alone, but what about you? You took advantage of being the eldest son in the family and insisted on studying. You made your father sick from all the hard work, and now he's been poisoned. Are you happy?"

At this time, a man in the crowd whispered, "Isn't this a disciple from Tianlu Academy? I seem to have seen him before when the teacher from Tianlu Academy was giving a lecture."

"All the students from Tianlu Academy will be able to enter the imperial court and become high-ranking officials. I didn't expect his mother to be such a scoundrel."

The man almost cried out in anxiety when he heard this: "Mother, please get up quickly!"

"Who is your mother? I only gave birth to one son, Shenger. You are just a bastard your father brought back from outside. You are not worthy of calling me that!"

Tianlu Academy?

Shang Ruoyi had a vague impression that most of the civil servants in the court came from Tianlu Academy, which was a place specifically for training censors for the court.

Seeing this, Shopkeeper Xiao sighed, took out ten taels of silver from his bosom and handed it to the woman: "Madam, giving you this silver is not an admission that the medicinal materials in our clinic are moldy, but I just don't want to ruin your son's future. From today on, you don't have to come to our clinic to get medicine anymore. We look down on your family's illness."

After saying that, he walked past her and entered the clinic.

The old woman stood up from the ground with the silver in her hand, curled her lips and smiled, "Now, the tuition for having a child is settled."

The man clenched his fists and said in a deep voice: "Mom, how could you do such a deceitful thing? As the old saying goes..."

Before he could finish, the woman interrupted him coldly: "I don't want to listen to your nonsense, this cloud and that word, taking the silver back home is the right thing to do, why did you come back this time?" She held the silver tightly in her hand: "I'm telling you, don't even think about asking me for a penny, your tuition, you have to find a way yourself, you are not my child, why do you ask me for money?"

She glared at the man, turned around and left, still saying confidently: "You are a bastard, and you want to study like my son? Dream on! Without Shuxiu, I don't think you can return to Tianlu Academy."

The man's clenched fists slowly loosened, and his head, which had been held high, slowly drooped.

He looked at the plaque of the clinic, bowed, and then turned and left.

When Qian Niang saw the crowd disperse, she took Shang Ruoyi's hand and said, "Sister, let's go to the shop!"

"Boss, the young master is here and wants to see you." A maid came over and whispered in her ear.

Shang Ruoyi saw that her face was slightly stagnant, and said with a smile: "Sister, if you have something to do, go and do it first! I will go around by myself first."

"If you are tired, come to my Tianxiang Residence to rest."

"Thank you sister."

After Qian Niang left, Shang Ruoyi looked for the man in the crowd.

"Miss, he went east." Shaoyao said softly.

Shang Ruoyi looked at her with admiration. She didn't expect that she was so thoughtful.

Walking eastward for a while, I saw him sitting in front of a stall, helping someone write.

There was also a banner next to the stall, which read: "Writing letters for me, 2 cents per letter"

good word!

Shang Ruoyi couldn't help but sigh.

She boasted that she had seen calligraphy and paintings by many famous masters, and her calligraphy was absolutely the best in every aspect.

At this time, an elderly man was sitting in front of the stall. He took the written letter and put two cents on the table.

He quickly put it away and looked at the few copper coins dripping out of his purse. He couldn't help but sigh. If he continued like this, when would he be able to save enough for his tuition?

At this moment, a silver ingot was placed on his stall.

It was as much as fifty taels.

this······

He raised his head in shock, looking at the veiled woman in front of him, and did not say a word for a long time.

Shaoyao couldn't help but laugh when she saw how silly he looked.

He finally came to his senses and quickly pushed the silver back: "Miss, this is too much silver. It only costs two cents to write a letter. I don't have that much silver and can't make the change."

Shang Ruoyi smiled and said, "When did I say I would only write one letter?"

The man was stunned for a moment. How long would it take to finish writing a letter worth fifty taels?

Shang Ruoyi took out a piece of paper from her sleeve pocket and handed it to him: "Sir, just write these words 10,000 times, and the 50 taels of silver will be yours. As for the rest, it will be your hard-earned money."

The man opened the note and it said: Milk tea, pearl milk tea.

"Just these six words?"

Shang Ruoyi nodded: "That's right."

He looked up at Shang Ruoyi and recognized her as one of the people who had just watched. He immediately understood her intention.

He thought about it and returned the silver: "Thank you for your kindness, young lady, but the ancients said: A gentleman loves money but gets it in a proper way. I can't take advantage of others like this. This is definitely not a gentleman's behavior."

Shang Ruoyi couldn't help laughing when she saw him being so literary: "Since you are a gentleman, you should know that those who achieve great things don't pay attention to trivial matters. Besides, I do need your help, not to ask you to take the money for nothing."

"That's right. My young lady knows that you are in deep trouble. She just wants to help you out. She doesn't want an honest and talented person to be buried because of money." Shaoyao smiled and said, "Miss, I think he has really become stupid because of reading too much."

"If you become successful one day, please do not forget your original intention." Shang Ruoyi put the silver back on the table: "In three days, I will have my servants come here to get 10,000 notes. Please remember to keep your promise."

The man cupped his hands and bowed deeply to Shang Ruoyi: "Student Li Yun, thank you for your kindness, young lady. One day, I will definitely repay you, as the ancients said."

"You don't want to talk!" Shang Ruoyi interrupted him hurriedly. Are all scholars in the world like this, talking about things? It's a headache to hear: "Just remember to keep your promise."

Li Tian nodded: "Don't worry, girl."

Shang Ruoyi didn't know that everything she had just done was seen by Yunqi and Yuntian.

Yun Tian said angrily: "Did you see that? She is just a fickle woman. It's a pity that the master is so sincere to her, but she doesn't deserve it!"

"What nonsense are you talking about? Which eye of yours saw that the Crown Prince's wife was so fickle?" Yunqi slapped him on the head: "Don't talk nonsense in front of His Highness, or he will slap you to death."

"Didn't you see that the scholar's eyes were almost falling on her?"

"He is a student of Tianlu Academy. Don't you know what Tianlu Academy means to Tianshun?" Yunqi whispered, "The Crown Prince's Consort has always been smart and cautious. She must have her reasons for doing this."

Yuntian said in disbelief: "Have you been drugged with some kind of magic potion?"

"Who gave us the love potion?" A deep voice sounded behind the two of them.

Yunqi and the other two were startled.

"Sir."

He Jingheng walked over, and at the corner of the street, the familiar figure disappeared.

He turned around and looked at the two of them: "What's going on?"
