She married a dying prince and she won three babies.

"As long as you're trustworthy, I'll employ you, but you'll be held responsible if anything goes wrong. When they come, they must sign a long-term employment agreement like you did, and work wholeheartedly for me. I won't let them down."

There aren't many people who can play Shangguanziqi. It would be great if we could have more experienced players. These people have martial arts skills, are knowledgeable, and are organized, have a sense of teamwork, and can work together.

"Thank you, young master." Liu Mingde was very grateful for the recognition and stood up and knelt down to pay his respects.

"Okay, there's no need for this between us." Shangguan Ziqi recognized Liu Mingde's ability to get things done.

The day of departure soon arrived.

Yu Yuanzheng was reluctant to leave her three children, but she was still relieved to leave them in the care of the princess.

That's the grandmother, she will definitely take good care of the child.

As soon as they left, Nanny Ye from Qiyayuan would come over to the main courtyard to help look after the place. There was also Ding Huiniang, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, and Yu Yuanzheng also asked Xiaoqin and Xiangzhi to stay. With so many people, there was more than enough manpower.

The princess is happy to be with the children every day.

Although there was crying and noise, the main courtyard had been quiet for so many years and it was rare for it to be so lively. She didn't mind the noise at all, but instead enjoyed it.

On October 20th, Yu Yuanzheng and Shangguan Ziqi set off.

The reason was that he wanted to find his master, a miracle doctor, to treat his leg.

The second master, who watched him leave, had a happy look on his face.

"Ziqi, I hope your leg can be cured. Your uncle is looking forward to going hunting with you." The second master said and patted him on the shoulder.

But the second master's smile disappeared quickly.

The third master also stepped forward to offer his blessing, but he did not smile.

"Don't worry, Ziqi. Third Uncle from the palace will take good care of you."

"Yes. Nephew believes in Third Uncle." Shangguan Ziqi has never seen through this Third Uncle.

Ever since he was old enough to understand, he saw that his uncle was very hardworking and self-disciplined.

He devoted himself to study and worked diligently. At the age of 24, he passed the imperial examination and became a Jinshi. After that, he served as an official away from home until he returned last year.

Compared with my second uncle, there is a huge gap between them.

However, the people in the main courtyard are all his father's people, so he is not worried.

He also left two secret guards in the dark to protect the children.

Now that the iron box is no longer in the palace, the spies from Canglan Kingdom will no longer target the palace.

After leaving the capital, he met up with He Yuan, Liu Mingde and others who were waiting outside the city gate and headed north.

The third master returned to his own courtyard with a face as gloomy as ink.

He came to the third old lady's yard again.

"Gone?" asked the third old lady.

"Yes. Mother, do we need to do anything?"

"He went out to seek a doctor as an excuse, but I think you know what he was actually doing there. He also wanted to stand up, so he had to find an excuse. You've been looking for that miracle doctor for so long, why haven't you found him yet?"

"My son is incompetent. The people I sent out have inquired in several cities 1,500 miles away, but no one has heard of Yaowang Mountain.

The son suspected that the miracle doctor was simply a fabrication. Perhaps he was actually in the capital, but he didn't want to cause trouble, so he changed his identity.

The assassination attempt may have frightened him.

But his medical skills were indeed good. According to those who carried out the assassination mission at the time, the doctor was indeed seriously injured, but he still managed to keep himself alive. He also had helpers in the capital. If they hadn't found help, the attempt would have been successful.

"Okay, let's evacuate everyone. We are all in Beijing now, and Beijing needs more people.

Ziqi is already well, so there is no point in looking for a miracle doctor. The most we can do is ask the royal family to find one and cure the eldest prince's leg disease, so we have to find a way to prevent the eldest prince from becoming the crown prince.

Or you can directly help the third prince become the crown prince, or even better, the emperor.

The eldest prince is far more capable than the third prince. If he were to take the throne, all our efforts over the years would be in vain."

"Yes, mother. Should we cause some trouble for Ziqi?" The third master was a little angry when he thought of his last failure and wanted to get back at him.

"If we can't kill them with one strike, don't waste our manpower."

The implication was that Shangguan Ziqi was nothing to be feared. The few men he brought with him wouldn't be of much use at all. Instead, it would be a waste of their manpower.

"Yes."

"You don't have to dwell on that incident at Zhuangzi. Those who accomplish great things are flexible and prioritize the greatest. He took a woman with him to deceive others, which only burdened him. Let's wait another two months. If the iron box doesn't return to the palace within two months, we can notify your uncle, the emperor, to send troops."

"Yes."

"Ziqi, you can send two people to follow them and see where they go."

"Yes."

Shangguan Ziqi and Yu Yuanzheng walked for three days and arrived at Huaiyuan City, about 500 miles away from the capital, where they stopped.

Then he started the old business, renting a shop and opening a shop.

After staying there for five days, he opened a shop.

They brought the medicine with them. This place is not far from Beijing, so they can just deliver the medicine directly from Beijing.

In this way, they traveled for more than a month, passed through four cities, and opened eight pharmacies.

Since they are all rented, the cost is much less.

Since opening the pharmacy, the couple has earned nearly 100,000 taels, all of which they used to open the shop. Shangguan Ziqi also had a considerable amount of savings, which he invested in.

That day we arrived at a place called Gu'an City, which is more than a thousand miles away from Beijing.

"Zheng'er, I plan to build a supply point here. Otherwise, all the goods will be shipped from the capital, which is too far away and the profit will be much less." Shangguan Ziqi said his plan.

"I didn't expect you to be such a business genius. I didn't even think that much."

Shangguan Ziqi was overjoyed by the praise.

Then they rented a small courtyard here to live temporarily.

They chose a relatively remote place and bought a not-so-small yard. It was a bit shabby, but cheap and could be used after a little renovation.

The few people who were capable of being shopkeepers that He Yuan brought with him had already been assigned, and now he was short of people.

"My lord, I will go to the human traffickers first to see if there are any suitable people, and then buy a few to train and become the shopkeepers." He Yuan suggested.

He Yuan was afraid that it would be difficult to manage, so the shopkeeper hired people who were purchased. These people had their indentures in hand and would not do anything wrong.

If you hire a local as the shopkeeper, it is easy to be deceived. They can't be here to watch over you every day.

"Uncle He, please buy me two more maids. The ones you think are honest and smart will do." Yu Yuanzheng made a request when she heard that he was going to buy people.

Manager He is in charge of welcoming and seeing off guests. Don't meet too many people. Just leave it to him and feel at ease.

"Yes, Madam."

After He Yuan left with the two servants, Yu Yuanzheng began to write the prescription.

Yu Yuanzheng no longer has a child to take care of, and her milk has long been returned, so she feels relieved.

They were heading north, and the weather was already getting colder.

It was already early December, and many children were most likely to catch a cold when the weather was cold, so she wrote multiple prescriptions based on different conditions.

Shangguan Ziqi also went out to work.

He didn't come back until it was almost dark.

He went to several medicinal herb merchants to discuss purchasing and has already confirmed three suppliers.

At this time, Chunlei came in.

"The eldest young master and the eldest young lady, the two people who have been following us, live in a small house not far from us."

"What?" Yu Yuanzheng was surprised.

She didn't know about this. Her husband never told her about it.

"Well, you guys should keep a close eye on them too. Don't lose them. We'll deal with them when we leave Gu'an City."
