She married a dying prince and she won three babies.

"I... don't have much money on me, only one hundred and fifty taels left." He lowered his head in shame.

How can I propose marriage with this little money?

I can't even afford a decent piece of jewelry.

This is the money saved from living in the princess's mansion for the past two months.

Otherwise he wouldn't even have this little money.

After the palace examination, he secretly wrote a few calligraphy and paintings and tried to sell them, but there were so many talented people in the capital that he couldn't get the price at all.

He was afraid of bringing shame to the princess's mansion, so he didn't dare to use his status as a third place winner to sell himself.

Since he passed the imperial examination, his family was exempted from corvee labor and taxes, and also accepted some local gentry as his followers. However, his studies were very expensive, so after passing the imperial examination, he immediately went to Beijing.

This time when he went to Beijing, his mother gave him all the money in the house.

He also knew his own limitations and didn't dare to propose marriage so quickly.

He originally wanted to wait until he took office and received a salary before asking his family to help him borrow some money.

"Haha, I thought it was a big deal. Of course my mother knows that you have no money. You just need to find an official matchmaker to come to your house and catch a pair of live geese." Hua Xiangling said lightly.

But how could Miao Bingwen treat her so unfairly?

I thought about it again and again and finally made up my mind.

On the fifth day of July, Yu Yuanzheng officially started her classes.

All twenty-five girls wore the same new clothes.

Eunuch Qi was very capable and took good care of the girls.

He knew that this was the disciple that his master had focused on training, and he couldn't let his master dislike him.

During the days when Yu Yuanzheng was not here, he gathered all the girls together and taught them some rules.

Although the master said that they would be apprentices in the future, bought maids are still maids. Don't forget your own identity just because you are favored by the master.

When Yu Yuanzheng walked into the classroom in casual clothes, the girls immediately stood up and greeted her politely.

"Your servant greets the Princess Zhenguo." Twenty-five voices sounded at the same time.

Yu Yuanzheng was stunned for a moment, but very satisfied.

Knowing how to position yourself correctly will allow you to manage better in the future.

"Okay, everyone, sit down."

"Thank you princess."

"From today on, you are my students.

You are all literate. If you feel that your literacy is not good enough, learn from each other.

Don't let learning to read delay the learning tasks I assign to you.

I will teach you for two years at most, so you must give it your all.

I conduct an assessment every month, and those who fail will be eliminated and sent to work as cleaning maids."

Yu Yuanzheng first explained her rules to make the girls feel a sense of urgency.

“We start from the simplest things, and I only teach the most practical things in class.

I will try my best to make sure you can understand. If there is anything you don’t understand, be sure to ask after class.

A doctor's duty is to save lives and heal the wounded. He cannot be careless at all, as human life is at stake.

From now on, when you come into contact with patients, you will be responsible for their life and death."

After explaining the rules, Yu Yuanzheng started the class.

Let’s start with the structure of the human body.

The girls listened very carefully.

They had never been exposed to this knowledge before and were all very curious.

After one class taught by Yu Yuanzheng, they gained new insights.

A few brave ones stepped forward to ask about things they didn't understand.

Yu Yuanzheng was very satisfied with the girls' enthusiasm.

She only attends classes in the morning and returns home to be with her children in the afternoon.

And a morning class is enough for the girls to digest.

If you talk too much in one day, they simply can't take it.

But when she just returned to the gate of the palace, she saw a familiar-looking person hesitating whether to go forward.

"Miao Tanhua?" Yu Yuanzheng didn't expect to meet this person.

I haven't seen him since the day the top scholar was paraded through the streets.

Yu Yuanzheng knew that he had been living in Huining Mansion.

When he saw County Lady Xiangling throwing the sachet to him that day, he knew that he had caught Hua Xiangling's eye.

*** will not let him leave.

"Greetings, Princess Zhenguo." Miao Bingwen immediately stepped forward to greet her and bowed deeply.

He was also holding a box of cakes in his hand.

"Are you here to see me?" Yu Yuanzheng guessed.

He was the only one who knew him in the palace.

"I have come here specially to thank the princess." Miao Bingwen's face was a little hot.

It was actually Princess Zhenguo who saved him at that time. Although he expressed his gratitude at that time, it was only verbal.

Later, he was busy with the palace examination and never came to express his gratitude.

It has been more than a month since the palace examination, and you still have to come here to ask for something. It is really rude.

Of course Yu Yuanzheng didn't know what he was thinking.

At that time, saving people was just a casual act.

"I haven't congratulated you on getting the top spot in the imperial examination yet." Seeing how reserved he was, Yu Yuanzheng knew that he hadn't adapted to his status as a superior person yet.

This shows his innocent heart.

"Thank you princess."

"Let's go inside and talk." Yu Yuanzheng guessed that he must have something to talk to her about.

Yu Yuanzheng took him to the study in the outer courtyard.

Shangguan Ziqi happened to be there too.

"Greetings, Prince Rong." Miao Bingwen bowed deeply.

"Miao Tanhua, no need to be polite."

Shangguan Ziqi was puzzled. Why did this person come to the palace?

Look at Yu Yuanzheng, seeking answers.

She didn't know either and shrugged to indicate that she didn't know.

"Please sit down." Shangguan Ziqi raised his hand.

Miao Bingwen sat in the guest seat.

But the couple could see the hesitation at a glance.

"Is there something wrong, Miao Tanhua?" Yu Yuanzheng asked in a gentle voice.

"Prince, Princess, I...I have a favor to ask of you." Miao Bingwen stood up and bowed.

"Miao Tanhua, you don't have to be polite. Sit down and talk." Shangguan Ziqi became even more curious.

This person has no connection with the palace.

"Thanks to the rescue of Princess Zhenguo and County Lady Xiangling, and the care of Miss Huining, I was fortunate enough to enter the palace for the examination. Fortunately, the Emperor favored me and appointed me as the third place winner.

This also gave me the opportunity to form a romantic relationship with County Lady Xiangling.

But I was born in a poor family and have nothing.

I have no relatives or friends in Beijing.

I knew that Lady Xiangling and Princess Zhenguo were close friends, so I took the liberty of seeking your help."

Miao Bingwen talked for a long time but still didn't reveal his real purpose. It was really difficult for him to start speaking.

Hearing this, the couple became even more curious.

What did he need their help with?

Mrs. Huining was eager for her daughter to get married as soon as possible, and there was no way she could stop her daughter from dating Miao Bingwen.

And the two of them are a good match.

Although this person was born in a poor family, he is not shabby at all.

Knows how to keep a balance.

"Miao Tanhua, is there anything I can help you with? Just tell me." Yu Yuanzheng asked directly.

"I would like to borrow some money from the princess so that I can go to the *** Mansion to propose marriage to County Lady Xiangling." Miao Bingwen stood up and bowed again.

He finally mustered up the courage to speak out.

The reason why he was looking for Princess Zhenguo was because she was a close friend of County Master Xiangling.

If he marries the county lady in the future, he can also be considered a friend of the Princess Zhenguo.

The relationship between the two families will never be interrupted, and it is easier to repay a favor owed to Princess Zhenguo than to others.

And he couldn't find anyone else to borrow from.

That's why I came to ask for help.

"It's nothing to me. No problem. How much do you want to borrow?" Yu Yuanzheng was very happy to hear that.

County Lady Xiangling is finally getting married.

The reason she is still unmarried at this age is all because of her own fault.

She had been looking forward to her getting married.

As long as County Lady Xiangling doesn't get married, she won't feel at ease.

"Well, just lend me one thousand taels. I will return the money to the princess as soon as I have it." Miao Bingwen promised.

"One thousand taels?" Yu Yuanzheng was surprised.

I didn't expect he would only borrow this much.

How can this be enough?

"How about eight hundred taels?" Miao Bingwen thought Yu Yuanzheng thought he had borrowed too much.

One thousand taels is more than enough to hold a wedding in his hometown.

But he borrowed a little more considering that this was the capital.

He planned to rent a courtyard with two entrances as a temporary residence for his wedding.

As soon as the appointment letter came down, he took the county lady to take up the post.

One thousand taels should be enough.

"Tanhua Lang, one thousand taels is too little. It's not enough for you to marry Xiangling County Lady.

You can't leave any regrets in the major events of your life.

Although County Lady Xiangling grew up in the countryside and was not particular about trivial matters, she was still the daughter of a princess.

You can't let her become a laughing stock in Beijing.

So, I will lend you thirty thousand taels of silver, and you only need to pay me back during your lifetime.

If you ask me to be your matchmaker, I will help you build this place up and give County Lady Xiangling a proper wedding so that she won't have any regrets."

Now that she knew this, how could Yu Yuanzheng let County Lady Xiangling's wedding be so hasty?

In order to save herself, she blocked the arrow with her own body and almost lost her life. Just for this reason, she couldn't let her wedding cost only one thousand and two taels of silver. That would be too shabby.

The woman's family has the support of the government.

If the man is not capable, then she will help him to the end.
