Shen Peilan had only been married for five days, and before she could even see which way the Xiao family's door opened, her husband Xiao Du gave Helan Jing 300 taels of silver as his wife.
A small sedan chair was used to carry her into Helan Mansion at night.
He Lanjing took the top position in the Baoyuan Bureau at a young age and concurrently served as the right minister of the Ministry of Industry. He was the most popular and powerful official in front of the emperor, and he was also the Jiao Jiao Gongzi praised by everyone in the capital.
Everyone only knew that he was brilliant, but they didn't know that this seemingly unattainable and powerful official kept Shen Peilan secretly protected.
Shen Peilan has superb medical skills and has long noticed that the smell of medicine on He Lanjing's body persists for many years.
One night while he was sleeping, she touched his wrist vein with her fingers, but He Lanjing, who suddenly woke up, grabbed his wrist and asked, "Who allowed you to touch me?"
When she finally cured his serious illness, she packed up the medicine box and left that night.
He Lanjing pressed her wrist fiercely and said hoarsely: "Three hundred taels, one more night."
She clasped his knuckles with her backhand and responded coldly: "Master Helan, your pulse is messed up - who allowed you to touch me this time?"
