Liu Yunxiang and Yan Mu looked at each other, not understanding what the old gentleman meant.

"So what do you want us to do?"

"It's very simple." The old gentleman looked at Yan Mu, "Please, Your Majesty, temporarily go to Zhushui County for me to be a teacher."

After coming out of the prison, the two of them were still confused and couldn't guess the old gentleman's intention.But fortunately, he promised that he would not harm San Bao and would release San Bao in half a year.

"Father, mother!"

Hearing this sound, the two of them looked up and saw Xingyi running over. Before she could reach them, she knelt down.

"I didn't protect my brother, I'm sorry."

Liu Yunxiang hurriedly stepped forward to help Xingyi up, and then realized that her face was very ugly and her hands were cold, "Are you sick?"

Xingyi shook his head, "I'm fine, I..."

Xingyi said with red eyes, "I didn't take Sanbao seriously, so he was kidnapped."

Liu Yunxiang hugged Xingyi, and then took out a handkerchief to wipe her tears, "Don't say that, my brother will lose it, because someone is thinking about you, and you can't prevent it. On the contrary, it's your parents who can't help you and want you to be busy." Regarding business matters, I also have to take care of my younger brother.”

"Then what did the old gentleman say, where is my brother?"

"It's okay, he promises not to harm Sambo."

"Then he..."

Yan Mu stepped forward and put the cloak on Xingyi, "Father and mother will handle the matter of the three treasures. Don't worry, just recover first."

"Don't worry, Sambo is fine."

The two of them accompanied Xing Yi back home first, and then invited a doctor. When they found out that she fell ill because of excessive worries, they felt even more guilty.

At night, Liu Yunxiang slept with Xingyi and tried to persuade her for a long time, but she still couldn't relax.

"Mom, I admit that you and Daddy love you, but I didn't take care of the three treasures. I can't help you." Xingyi said in a dull voice.

"What do you mean? It's not your responsibility to take care of the Three Treasures. Besides, you are our daughter, so we naturally love you."

"Can……"

Seeing Xingyi lowering his head, Liu Yunxiang suddenly realized something.

"But who is talking nonsense in your ears?"

"No, no, it was me... I guessed it myself."

"What did you guess?"

Xingyi lowered his head and raised it after a while, but his eyes were already full of tears, "I wasn't born by you, right?"

Liu Yunxiang was stunned for a moment, "Who told you?"

Before Xingyi could open his mouth, tears fell first, "Yan'er and I are twins, but he and I look nothing alike. And his eyes are very much like his father's, and his nose and lips are like yours, so I can only Not biological."

"Xingyi, don't think nonsense, you are our precious daughter." Liu Yunxiang hugged Xingyi distressedly.

In fact, she knew that Xingyi's identity could not be concealed. There were many people who knew about it, and sooner or later it would be revealed.But she tried her best to keep this secret, just because she was afraid that Xingyi would be upset when she found out.

"Mom, both you and daddy love me, so I am very satisfied."

"You." Liu Yunxiang sighed, knowing that he couldn't hide it anymore, and Kuang Xingxing had become more ambitious. "You have to know that your father and I love you very much."

"I know."

"And don't think that you are not from our family. You are the same as Yan'er and Sanbao. You are our daughter and the most noble princess of Da Rong." She didn't know when Xingyi realized her life experience. Yes, but she felt heartbroken when she thought that she worked hard to run Lingyun's business and took good care of Yan'er and Sanbao, and was even afraid that they would abandon her.

Liu Yunxiang hugged her daughter and talked a lot, but her actions and thoughts were sensitive, and she knew that her life would be different from the past.

Early the next morning, before dawn, Liu Yunxiang and Yan Mu left a letter and left their villa in Yangzhou.The couple took a carriage and headed south along the official road.

They were wearing cotton clothes and their carriages were simple, like ordinary people.

Liu Yunxiang peeked out of the carriage and saw Yan Mu wearing a blue robe and a square scarf on his head. He really looked like a teacher.

"Zhushui County is a remote county below Yangzhou. Mr. Bai has an academy in the county. There are 15 people studying there. Six of them will take the provincial examination in half a month. If they pass , you can take part in the imperial examination next year." Liu Yunxiang said.

While in prison, the old gentleman briefly told them about the situation in his academy.As for why he wanted Yan Mu to be the teacher in his place, he refused to reveal a word.

"I've never been a teacher to others. It would be fine if I could teach them two moves." Yan Mu snorted.

Liu Yunxiang smiled: "The King of Zhenbei is too humble. You have good calligraphy and incisive writing. Why can't you be a teacher? With your talents, you are more than enough."

Yan Mu turned his head: "You are mocking me."

"No, but I feel that when the old man asked you to go to Zhushui County, he definitely didn't want you to teach those students how to read."

"This old man has another purpose. We'll find out when we go there."

As the name suggests, Zhushui County is located in a sea of ​​bamboo, surrounded by mountains, and the mountains are covered with bamboo.A river runs through this small county, and Yan Mu and the others need to take a boat to reach it.

Green water and green bamboos, white mist rising, the boat sailing in it, seems to be in a splash-ink landscape painting.

The boatman wearing a straw hat greeted other boatmen when they met each other, as if singing, with a tune.

"Shipman, have you ever heard of Mid-Levels Academy?"

"Banshan Academy?" The boatman thought for a moment, "We have two academies in Zhushui County, one is Mingyuan Academy and the other is Huiming Academy. I have never heard of Banshan Academy."

Yan Mu turned to look at Liu Yunxiang. Could it be that the two of them had been tricked?

"Then do you know Bai Banshan?"

"do not know."

Yan Mu thought that Banshan Academy was very famous in Zhushui County, and that Bai Banshan was such a great person that he could find out just by asking casually, but this turned out to be the case.

But he dared to kidnap the little prince, so he shouldn't be unknown.

After getting off the boat at the ferry, we looked at the scenery of Zhushui County, a water town in the south of the Yangtze River, with green bricks and green tiles, small bridges and flowing water.

Yan Mu took Liu Yunxiang with him. Seeing that it was still early, the two of them went to the street to inquire.

This county town looks quite big. There are many shops on both sides of the streets, and there are also small vendors selling food along the streets. It looks quite prosperous.The two of them walked among them, unconsciously indulging in this peaceful and prosperous scene.

Compared with Xizhou, this place is simply a place where gods live.

Yan Mu asked around when he met people. After asking several people, he had never heard of Banshan Academy.

The two of them were really tired, so they sat down in a shed selling wontons and ordered two bowls of wontons.

Seeing someone next to him, Yan Mu asked them if they had ever heard of Banshan Academy.

These people were wearing short jackets, and they looked like they were hard laborers, so who knew what kind of academy they were.

Yan Mu was feeling disappointed when the old woman who brought the wontons said, "Banshan Academy? Why does it sound so familiar to me?" (End of Chapter)
