"What? You don't want to?" Yu Yuanzheng glanced at everyone playfully.

"I'm willing." The first person to react was a boy named Li Mingxi.

With him taking the lead, everyone followed suit and said they were willing.

The subordinates were not slaves. As long as they could learn the princess's medical skills, she would be happy to ask them to do anything.

This is also what the elders in the family have repeatedly told me.

"You all know that I'm teaching a group of girls, but I'm only one person. So if you want to become my disciple, you can only sit in the classroom and study with them. But there are differences between men and women. If you can abide by the rules, I'll teach you together."

Yu Yuanzheng thought about it. In this era, there is a strict separation between men and women, but she couldn’t possibly talk about the same thing twice. That would be too tiring.

They can only be arranged in the same classroom, and at most they can be divided into two sides with a screen in the middle.

"We are all descendants of the imperial physicians of the Imperial Medical Bureau, so there is no need to explain the rules. Please rest assured, Princess Zhenguo. We are here to study medicine. We belong to the same school, and they are our senior sisters." Chen Huaishan immediately made his attitude clear.

The others nodded.

Yu Yuanzheng was very satisfied to see that they all had a positive attitude.

After the negotiation, Yu Yuanzheng let them enter the Marquis Zhenguo Mansion, stand in two rows, and let the guards register their families, ages, and what they had studied.

Looking at so many young and energetic men, Yu Yuanzheng was actually very happy to have such a group of people joining her team.

When Eunuch Qi saw that the princess had accepted so many new disciples, fifty-two in total, the classroom she had previously arranged could not accommodate so many people.

"Princess, I have cleaned up the main hall on the second floor and used it as a classroom. Do you think it is feasible?" Eunuch Qi asked his master for his opinion.

Only there is bigger.

"Okay. You should hurry up and get this done so it can be used tomorrow."

On this day, Yu Yuanzheng arranged more than 20 men to listen to her lecture outside the classroom.

In just one morning, more than twenty men were fascinated by what they heard.

Princess Zhenguo’s lectures are easy to understand, lively and interesting.

It is completely different from the medical teaching by the elders at home.

From then on, these twenty or so people followed Yu Yuanzheng to learn diligently.

Later, after the hospital opened, they worked in batches to see patients in the hospital, and then took turns returning to the Marquis of Zhenguo's Mansion to attend classes every half a month.

After Yu Yuanzheng finished her class, she returned to the palace for lunch, and then Yue Zhengxing arrived.

He also heard about what happened at Prince Jing's Mansion yesterday, and knew that this morning a large number of grandsons and sons of the imperial physicians came to seek the Princess Zhenguo's apprenticeship.

"Princess, with so many students, can you teach them all by yourself?"

Yue Zhengxing couldn't imagine teaching more than fifty students alone.

Even in the Imperial College, there weren’t so many people in a class, with a maximum of thirty.

"Don't worry. It doesn't matter if you are herding ten sheep or a hundred sheep. As long as they listen carefully, the number of people doesn't matter. At most, I will just have to check a few more answer sheets during the exam." Yu Yuanzheng didn't care.

Aren’t there usually around fifty students in a class in later schools?

There are large classes in college, with sometimes more than a hundred students in a class.

Shangguan Ziqi is not in the palace today because of something.

Yue Zhengxing brought Yu Yuanzheng to the new hospital they designed and built.

It covers an area of ​​twelve acres and has a square foundation.

There are four gates, one each in the east, south, west and north.

The East Gate and the North Gate are both the main gates, one for male patients and the other for female patients.

Half of the ward is for men and the other half is for women. The wall in the middle is higher than the surrounding wall and has two doors, so they can be connected when necessary.

There are two-story buildings on all four sides, and the four rows in the middle are also two-story.

Both areas have a small garden that serves as green space and is convenient for patients to take walks.

At present, the house has just been built, and it is completely empty inside without any furniture.

"Prince Yue, how much silver did you spend in total?"

"It only cost thirty thousand taels to build the house. This kind of house is relatively simple, and doesn't need carved beams or painted rafters. It just needs to be sturdy, so the cost is not much."

"Well, this is good. What we want is practicality." Yu Yuanzheng didn't need those fancy things. Although they were beautiful, they were meaningless.

"Yes."

"Okay, let's divide the uses of each room while we're here today. You can record it."

Yue Zhengxing took out paper and pen from his pocket.

It turned out to be a charcoal pencil.

"You're quite clever, knowing that you can carry this with you and write anywhere without the need for ink."

"Thank you for the compliment, Princess." This was something he thought of by chance.

When building this house, he often had to communicate with the construction master at any time, and many things needed to be written down. He had to go to the desk every time and grind the ink on the spot, which was really inconvenient.

He wondered how he could write anywhere.

It was the servant who reminded him that the fire stick happened to be black and could be used for writing.

In this way, he only needs to put a small notebook in his bag, take a burnt branch, wrap it with cloth, and he can write down what he wants to record at any time wherever he goes.

"Please prepare some pens like yours for me. I like them too."

"it is good."

As they walked, the two of them discussed how to allocate these houses, which one would be used as the outpatient clinic, which one would be used as the ward, which one would be used as the pharmacy, which one would be used as the canteen, where would be for doctors to rest and work, where would be the management area, where would be the operating room, etc.

The two of them continued to discuss and allocate tasks until the middle of the afternoon.

Shangguan Ziqi has arrived and they are still discussing it.

"Madam, what took you so long?" Normally, when he returned to the palace, his wife was there, but today she was nowhere to be found. The children also didn't know where their mother had gone.

He found out after asking his mother.

"Our hospital is built. What do you think?" Yu Yuanzheng pointed to a building and showed it to him with a sense of accomplishment.

"Yeah, very solid." Shangguan Ziqi couldn't actually see anything. He only saw that the house was built very solidly, transparent and bright.

"Okay, that's all for today. Prince Yue, go contact some carpenters and make furniture according to local conditions. The furniture has a style, so come to the palace to get the blueprints later." Yu Yuanzheng ordered.

"Yes, princess."

The couple said goodbye to Yue Zhengxing and prepared to return to the palace.

But at this moment, rumbling thunder was heard in the distance.

"It's going to rain." Yu Yuanzheng looked up at the sky.

There were dark clouds in the distance, but it was safe above their heads; it wouldn't rain for the time being.

However, they could hear thunder from time to time on their way back to the palace, and it started to rain heavily as soon as they arrived at the palace.

It rained all night long.

The next day, the sky was still overcast, but the rain had stopped. However, Yu Yuanzheng still went to the Marquis Zhenguo Mansion to teach his disciples as usual.

Eunuch Qi was very efficient and prepared a spacious classroom in just one day.

There is a screen in the middle, just enough to separate men and women.

By August, Yu Yuanzheng had already shared a lot of medical knowledge that was not available in this era, and more than 20 male disciples were fascinated by his talk.

Just a human anatomy diagram was enough to open their eyes.

The markings were very clear and concise. They were all children of medical families, and their families also had human body diagrams treasured, but compared to the one in the hands of the Princess Zhenguo, it was far inferior.

Then they each copied a picture and took it home, which resulted in many imperial doctors coming to thank Yu Yuanzheng.

Princess Zhenguo shared this treasure with everyone without hesitation. It is so rare.

Yu Yuanzheng is not good at drawing. This is what she described, and Shangguan Ziqi helped her draw it.

Since July, the weather has been unpredictable, with rain almost every two or three days.

The autumn harvest is just around the corner, and this kind of weather is extremely unfavorable for the crops.

In mid-August, several expedited memorials were delivered to the emperor.
