Before Liu Yunxiang's letter was sent back, Fang Wanjin's mother had already chased him to Yangzhou. Fang Wanjin was blocked outside the Gongyuan, and he was slapped twice.

"You brat, why don't you understand this? Everyone has their own destiny. You were not born to be an official!"

"I don't care about being an official, I just want to seek justice... Oops... it hurts so much. If you hit me again, I will get angry!"

"What's going to happen to Xu Jingyu? What's going to happen to his mother? You're going to pay for it with your own life, and you're going to take it from your mother! Come home with me and see if your father doesn't break your legs!"

"You said my father would break my legs, and I would be stupid to follow you home!"

Outside the Gongyuan Courtyard, it was a serious place. Mother and son were hiding from each other, and many parents waiting outside came to watch the fun.

Liu Yunxiang persuaded Mrs. Fang and asked her to go back to the house they rented first and talk to her if she had anything to say.

Mrs. Fang still gave Liu Yunxiang face, but when she left, she grabbed Fang Wanjin's ears and taught him a lesson as she walked.

Liu Yunxiang laughed, but she and Yan Mu did not follow him back. Instead, they went to Yangzhou Prison and asked the Yangzhou Magistrate to release Old Man Bai. Compared with half a year ago, this old man has lost a lot of weight, but his energy is still good.

Seeing Liu Yunxiang and Yan Mu waiting outside the prison, he hurriedly ran forward, cupped his hands, and made a big apology.

"The half-year appointment has arrived." Liu Yunxiang said.

Mr. Bai lowered his head, as if he couldn't lift it up, but he didn't speak.

"Only four people from Banshan Academy, including Xie Si and Zhuzi, will take part in the provincial examination today."

Hearing this, Mr. Bai bowed again in shame, "I, the students, have to be taken care of by you two. I am lucky to have you two take care of me. I...oh, by the way, I will take you two to pick up the little prince."

"No need, we've found him."

"what?"

"I found it years ago."

At this time, Old Man Bai raised his head and looked at them with some surprise. Since they found it years ago, why did they not leave the academy, but still waited until Enke started the exam.

"We have already seen what you want us to see." Liu Yunxiang frowned, "As you think, we will not make up our mind to change the current imperial examination system without experiencing it personally. You should know that this is time-consuming It’s a thankless effort.”

Listening to these words, Old Man Bai's beard trembled with excitement, but he tried to restrain himself.

"Yes, it is difficult."

Liu Yunxiang sighed slightly, "It's hard but we have to do it."

Old Man Bai gave another big gift, "On behalf of all the merchant students in Darong, I would like to thank you and King Zhenbei. Regardless of success or failure, we are all grateful to you both."

Yan Mu snorted, "Isn't this what you want? Go ahead and have fun."

The old man Bai was ashamed, "You should not threaten the two of you with the little prince."

"Forget about these things, there is one more thing. Fang Wanjin doesn't know our identities yet, and he will follow us to Beijing to file a complaint this time."

Liu Yunxiang told Old Man Bai about Fang Wanjin, and then said, "But don't worry, we will take care of him."

"Well, ordinary people don't understand, why did you two allow him to come to Beijing and then file a complaint against him?"

"Someone has to mention the fact that business students cannot participate in the imperial examination, so we can intervene. It's like a calm lake, only a falling pebble can cause ripples." Yan Mu raised his eyebrows: "Fang Wanjin is the one. Stone."

The provincial examination will take three days. With Old Man Bai here, Liu Yunxiang and the others will not wait for Xie Si and the others to leave the examination room. Early the next morning, they set off from Yangzhou back to Shengjing.

Liu Yunxiang and Sanbao were riding in a carriage, while Yan Mu and Fang Wanjin were riding on both sides of the carriage.

She opened the car curtain on the left and saw Fang Wanjin, riding a tall horse. It was probably his first time traveling far away, and he couldn't hide the excitement on his face. It's just that the nose is bruised and the face is swollen, which is quite funny.

"How did you convince your mother to allow you to come to Beijing?" Liu Yunxiang asked.

She thought she needed to be comforted, but when she returned from the prison yesterday, Mrs. Fang had already left.

"She is afraid that I will become the second Xu Jingyu, so I will tell her that if she does not agree with my coming to Beijing this time, I will immediately commit suicide by drowning myself in the river."

"You!" Liu Yunxiang glared at Fang Wanjin. If she were his mother, she would definitely beat her up. Obviously Mrs. Fang was like her to the court, "Then, she agreed?"

"How is that possible?" Fang Wanjin spoke with the corner of his mouth pulled, and he hissed in pain, "I promised her that no matter what the outcome is when I go to Beijing this time, I will change my mind and learn business from my father." I said again This time I am actually going to have a long experience. The other matters include Mr. Yan and the wife, and you two will not let me take risks."

Liu Yunxiang smiled. Mrs. Fang was probably really at her wits end. Although she was worried about her son, she could only let him go on this trip, hoping that he would give up if he hit a wall.

"In this case, you must listen to us in the future and must not be impulsive."

Fang Wanjin nodded, "I am going to file a complaint, not to seek death. I listen to you two."

Twenty days later, they arrived outside Shengjing City.

Liu Yunxiang only gave Zhang Qi the news, so it was Zhang Qi who was waiting outside the city. Seeing the two of them, Zhang Qi wanted to salute, but Liu Yunxiang shook his head at him, and then pushed Fang Wanjin to him.

"Please help us take care of this child for a few days."

Zhang Qi was busy responding, but Fang Wanjin was a little scared.

"I can't follow you?"

Liu Yunxiang shook his head, "No."

"Oh."

Yan Mu slapped Fang Wanjin on the head from behind and said, "Wait until we get news and let you take action."

After entrusting Fang Wanjin to Zhang Qi, the carriage continued through the long street and finally stopped in front of the palace gate.

Yan Mu dismounted, looked at the solemn and majestic palace gate, and let out a long sigh.

"I am back."

From leading troops in Lingnan to confront the Southern Jin Dynasty, and then being forced to flee Zhenbei, and then fighting the imperial court in Zhenbei, he was captured and sent to Xiyue, and finally returned to Darong, where he spent another three years building in Xizhou, and then Zhushui County, five years have passed since I returned to Beijing again.

Five years!

Liu Yunxiang walked to Yan Mu and held his hand, "Let's go, Yan'er is still waiting for us." (End of Chapter)
