She married a dying prince and she won three babies.

Yu Yuanzheng walked slowly into the main hall and bowed to the princess first.

"I have seen the mother-in-law."

"You're back just in time. This is the wife of the Crown Prince of Cheng's Mansion, this is the wife of the Crown Prince of Huai's Mansion, and this is Madam Qin, the aunt of the Seventh Prince and the Eighth Princess. You know this one, the wife of the Marquis of Ning'an." The princess introduced them one by one.

Were these people sent by the emperor to thank her?

The second old lady, Yu Chaoyang, Concubine Luo, and the second lady were also there.

Yu Yuanzheng greeted them one by one.

"Yuan Zheng, thank you so much for yesterday. You have saved our Zhengxing twice. I will make him remember this kindness for the rest of his life." Lady Ning'an Marquis smiled brightly.

At the same time, she was also very angry with her son and wanted to teach him a lesson.

If he had not been beaten by the emperor yesterday, she would have wanted to beat him a few more times to teach him a lesson.

Having a son like this would shorten her life by several years. The Marquis said last night that he should not be spoiled anymore, otherwise he would lose his son one day.

"Yes, thank you, Madam Young Master. If you hadn't treated my naughty boy in time, he might have died. Thank you." The wife of Prince Cheng's wife's eyes turned red and she wiped her eyes as she thanked him.

As soon as she got the news yesterday, she ran to the lake. As soon as she arrived, she saw her son vomiting water, otherwise she would have fainted from fright.

"Madam, please accept this small token of my gratitude. I'm not here to express my gratitude because of the emperor's order, but out of my sincere gratitude.

If you hadn't stepped forward to organize the rescue yesterday, my Jinchen might have met his end. The grace of saving a life is greater than heaven."

The wife of the Crown Prince of Prince Huai's Mansion stood up and took out a brocade box and stuffed it into Yu Yuanzheng's hand.

"Yes, yes, the grace of saving a life is greater than heaven. The eldest young lady directly saved my Yue'er. She was greatly frightened yesterday. When she recovers, I will bring her to thank you in person." Madam Qin immediately agreed.

She was also very scared yesterday. She didn't sleep well last night and had nightmares all night. She dreamed that her daughter was drowned. She got up twice to check on her daughter, but fell asleep peacefully. She didn't feel relieved until the morning.

Each lady gave Yu Yuanzheng the gift she brought.

Each one is a box of jewelry.

But, actually, she prefers to receive money, but she can’t say it directly because it’s too vulgar.

She couldn't even hold it with her hands, and the maid had to help her catch it.

"You ladies are so kind. I was just catching up."

"It was because you arrived in time that my kid had a chance to survive. No one else would have been able to perform artificial respiration to save him.

This method was just a legend from many years ago, and not many people knew about it anymore. And even fewer people could actually use it effectively and save people.

By the time the doctor arrived, the child would have already died."

The wife of the Crown Prince of Chengwang Mansion was also terrified.

Yu Yuanzheng was speechless, it was indeed true.

If she had not been around at the time and had gone to join in the fun, those children might really have died.

Then she would have nothing to feel embarrassed about accepting these gifts.

"Thank you very much, ladies." Yu Yuanzheng raised the box in her hand.

The ladies chatted with the princess for a few words and then said goodbye and left.

The wife of Prince Cheng and the wife of Prince Huai are going to the next house.

Their son was saved by the other two young masters under the command of Yu Yuanzheng, so they had to go to that family to express their gratitude.

After everyone left, the second old lady looked at Yu Yuanzheng with a somewhat ambiguous look.

She switched back and forth between Yu Chaoyang and Yu Yuanzheng several times.

Yu Yuanzheng felt very uncomfortable watching this.

But she said nothing and just left.

The second old lady returned to her centenary courtyard and sat quietly on a chair.

On the morning of Zishu's wedding day, she received the news that the bride had been sent to the wrong bridal chamber. She was so happy that she immediately asked her maid to replace the wedding gift for the new daughter-in-law with the dowry she had prepared for her granddaughter, which was the exquisite twelve-piece suit.

But over the past month, Yu Yuanzheng's performance was completely unlike that of a daughter of a bastard who was not worthy of being on the stage. On the contrary, she was even better than the legitimate daughter carefully nurtured by the baron's mansion.

At this moment, she was no longer as satisfied with Yu Chaoyang as when she first entered the door.

But things have already been done, and she doesn't know how to change them.

"Taohong, go and call the Crown Prince's Consort to me." The second old lady ordered.

Yu Chaoyang arrived soon.

"Meet the Second Old Lady."

"Chaoyang, come and sit next to grandma." The second old lady put on a smiling face.

Yu Chaoyang sat down obediently.

"Good boy, how have you and Zishu been studying the iron box recently?" asked the second old lady.

If the couple could open the box, they would be great contributors to the entire Shangguan family, and it would also be a good thing to improve their status in the hearts of the clan members.

"Not yet." Yu Chaoyang felt ashamed.

The couple tries it countless times every day.

She tried the most times because the prince had to go out during the day and she had more time.

But it has been more than 20 days and there is no movement at all.

"Then try more, maybe one of the numbers is the password to open the box. Also, it's been a month since you got married, you have to hurry up and get pregnant, the descendants of the palace are the most important." The second old lady became concerned about Yu Chaoyang's belly again.

"Second Madam, Chaoyang has only been married for a month, it can't be that fast." Yu Chaoyang shyly pinched the handkerchief in her hand.

"You have to be careful with your second sister in the future, and don't fall into her trap without knowing it." The second old lady felt so angry when she talked about Yu Yuanzheng.

"Yes, Chaoyang didn't know that she hid so deeply and deceived everyone in our uncle's mansion." Speaking of this, Yu Chaoyang wanted to kill her, but he couldn't.

"Okay, now that things have come to this, try to keep your distance from her. Also, you should read more, learn piano, and paint, so that people don't call you a fool.

I will mention it to the princess some other day and ask you to learn how to manage the palace's household expenses.

If you can't shoulder the responsibility of being the mistress of the palace, your position as the Crown Prince's Consort may be unstable." The Second Old Lady said seriously.

There was no sign of his usual excitement at all.

She herself didn't know why, but she just didn't like Yu Yuanzheng. From the first day she served tea to her, she wanted to embarrass Yu Yuanzheng in every way.

She always felt that this woman was a variable that would ruin her plans of many years.

In fact, the main reason was that the prince had originally chosen her to marry Shangguan Zishu, and she was very dissatisfied.

"Yes, Chaoyang knows." Although Yu Chaoyang was listening, he thought that she had already married into the palace and was now the prince's consort. Could there be any accidents?

What she hadn't anticipated was the possibility of divorcing her or taking another concubine. If the newcomer proved exceptionally capable, she might be suppressed. The mistress of the palace was extremely important to the palace.

After a while, Concubine Luo also came.

She was also quite shocked by Yu Yuanzheng's recent performance.

"Second Madam, what do you think about this matter?" Concubine Luo felt very unhappy.

The woman they all looked down upon actually surpassed the Crown Prince's Consort.

At this moment, she was divided on Yu Chaoyang. If she hadn't changed her marriage, some of the glory from yesterday would have fallen on her son.

"What can she do? As long as the eldest master doesn't wake up, she will be a widow no matter how capable she is." The second old lady was not too worried.

A woman in the harem cannot change the overall situation. As long as Zishu remains the prince, nothing will change.

After a while, she wrote a letter to Concubine Shu in the palace, asking her to speak in front of the emperor and ask how the prince could stop treating the eldest son.

Treatment must never be stopped.

It’s a pity that Qiyayuan is strictly protected by the princess, and she can’t get anyone in.

The servants serving in the courtyard were arranged by the prince himself, and even the maids who did the rough work were the descendants of the princess who came with her as a dowry.

Yu Yuanzheng, who was being talked about by several women, returned happily to Qiyayuan, holding two jewelry boxes, and the maid behind her had two more boxes in her hand.

Open each box and look at it.

"Wow, these ladies are so generous."

Each piece is so exquisite that it can dazzle the eyes.

Yu Yuanzheng picked up a gold and jade hairpin and put it directly on her head.

"Ziyue, am I pretty?"

"The eldest young lady is so beautiful."

"You're quite good at talking. You said I was pretty, not Chai. Come, everyone who sees it gets a share. This one is for you, this one is for Jiang Hua, and this one is for Nanny Ye. Zi Yue will give each of the servants in the courtyard a reward of one or two taels of silver later. Just say that this lady is in a good mood today and is giving them this reward."

Yu Yuanzheng is very generous.

"Oh, by the way, please call Nanny Ye in for me. I need to discuss something with her."

Zi Yue took the reward and went out to call for help.
