The content of the letter was very brief, only a few words: Inquiry unsuccessful, clues interrupted...
Murong Qing frowned slightly, her face somewhat pale.
"How could this be? We were almost about to find him, and the clues just broke off like this?"
The more she thought about it, the more puzzled she became. She glanced back at the carrier pigeon and then hurried into the study...
After Old Man Yun and Gu Shi returned to the village, the large mansion of the Yun family in the capital was occupied by Murong Qing and Yun Jinhe. The daily affairs were managed by Steward Li, so it wasn't too much of a worry...
Unexpectedly, as soon as she pushed open the study door, she saw Yun Jinhe holding his forehead, engrossed in reading. httpδ:/m.kuAisugg.nět
Murong Qing was slightly stunned and gave a dry laugh, "Jinhe, you, you're not asleep yet?"
"Hmm?" Yun Jinhe looked up, glanced at the letter in Murong Qing's hand, and asked in surprise, "I'm usually not asleep at this time either. What is Miss Murong holding?"
These past few days, he had felt that Miss Murong was a bit off, as if she was hiding something from him...
"It's nothing, I just wanted to write a letter home to ask if my uncle and aunt have arrived home?" Murong Qing said with a smile.
Yun Jinhe said "Oh," stood up, and walked to Murong Qing. "Miss Murong, no matter what my mother says or does, please don't take it to heart. She doesn't have bad intentions, she just tends to get confused..."
Zhao Guihua's attitude and刁难 towards Murong Qing had made Yun Jinhe extremely worried.
During their time at Bocai Academy, if it hadn't been for Miss Murong's careful care, his academic performance wouldn't have been among the top...
"I know!" Murong Qing nodded and quietly put away the letter.
"Coincidentally, I have a problem I can't solve and wanted to ask Miss Murong for help..." Yun Jinhe said, pulling out a test paper from the desk and handing it to Murong Qing. "This is a new mock test from the Imperial College. It's said to be personally created by Dean Qian, and it's quite difficult!"
Murong Qing took it and glanced at it casually.
It was indeed a bit difficult, and solving it would take time...
"Let's break down these numbers first, then substitute them into the formula separately. Look!"
The two young people worked on the problems in the study, and time flew by until past midnight.
After Yun Jinhe, too sleepy to open his eyes, went back to sleep, Murong Qing, holding a brush, wrote a reply letter on paper, tied it to the carrier pigeon, and let it fly away...
The next morning, in the classroom of the Imperial College.
Yun Jinhe sat in his seat as usual, watching a large group of students hovering around Yang Jingrui outside the door, forced to listen to all sorts of flattering and ingratiating words...
He lowered his head, touched the jade pendant on his waist, smiled slightly, and then opened his book to flip through it.
Just then, a burst of sarcastic remarks came from outside the door, "Oh, Young Master Yang is really glorious now that he's back in the capital. Look at him showing off, he's almost flying to the sky and standing shoulder to shoulder with the sun..."
"I think so too. One should be low-key. If Young Master Yang's father wasn't the Prime Minister, would he be praised so highly?"
Yun Jinhe heard the commotion and found it somewhat familiar, so he closed his book and walked outside.
To his surprise, as soon as he crossed the threshold, he bumped into a plump embrace with a "thump"...
Immediately after, the scene suddenly changed. He was pinned to the ground by two familiar figures, piled on top of each other like a pyramid, and bursts of laughter erupted.
"Hahaha, Jinhe, we're here to find you!"
"Jinhe, have you missed us?"
Yun Jinhe: "..."
Could it be those two guys?
As expected, Yao Jinsheng and Sun Tianxiu appeared like two living clowns. One grabbed Yun Jinhe's ear, and the other pinched his nose, laughing so hard that their eyes disappeared...
Yun Jinhe: "???"
You two are too fast. Did you fly here from Bocai Academy?
It's over, it's over. He would never have peace in the Imperial College from now on...
"Stop messing around, this is the Imperial College!" Yun Jinhe pushed the two away, looked around, and saw Yang Jingrui standing not far away, staring at them indifferently.
Yang Jingrui had heard the sarcastic remarks clearly just now, so he felt a bit stifled...
"Let's go, let's go, come to my house for dinner tonight!" Yun Jinhe retracted his gaze and pulled Yao Jinsheng and Sun Tianxiu away.
That afternoon, Dean Qian summoned Yun Jinhe to his office.
"Jinhe, I'll entrust these two students to you, and you mustn't disappoint me!" Dean Qian said with a smile.
Yun Jinhe: "..."
This puts pressure on me.
He knew too well what those two were like. It would be as difficult as climbing to heaven to pass Dean Qian's exam.
"I will do my best to teach them!" Yun Jinhe cupped his hands.
As for whether they could learn, he couldn't guarantee it...
"Good, it's good to have your word. Go!" Dean Qian said.
That night, Old Master Yao bought a lot of things and came to the Yun mansion specifically to thank Yun Jinhe.
Murong Qing, with a few servants from the Yun mansion, was busy cooking in the kitchen. Yao Jinsheng and Sun Tianxiu were playing happily in the main hall, throwing dice and drawing pictures, completely lacking in seriousness...
Yun Jinhe held his forehead and sighed, completely speechless.
"Young Master Yun, whether my Jinsheng can stay in the Imperial College all depends on you!" Old Master Yao patted Yun Jinhe's shoulder with admiration. "So, during this period, let Jinsheng stay at the Yun mansion. I'll have my steward send the food and accommodation fees..."
After speaking, Old Master Yao looked at the grinning Sun Tianxiu and sighed helplessly, "I'll cover that guy's living expenses too!"
What else could he do? Who knew that Sun Tianxiu was a good friend of Jinsheng and Jinhe...
Yun Jinhe replied, "Uncle Yao, I'll do my best to teach them!"
So, from the next day onwards, Yun Jinhe had two little followers behind him.
As auditors at the Imperial College, in the classroom, Yao Jinsheng and Sun Tianxiu sat on either side of Yun Jinhe like two great Buddhas, inseparable...
To improve their academic performance, Yun Jinhe devised a complete plan. If the two dared to disobey, he would report them to Old Master Yao.
As the saying goes, with persistent effort, even an iron rod can be ground into a needle. In less than half a month, the two indeed showed changes.
The main reason was that they dared not disobey. If they were even slightly mischievous, Old Master Yao would come with a shoe sole and whip their bottoms...
Leaving the capital aside for the moment, Dashui Village was now a scene of bustling activity.
Next to the Yun family's mansion, a large group of craftsmen were busy laying foundations and building houses. Xiao Jinfeng, along with Er Longzi, personally worked, not shying away from dirt or fatigue, and mingled with the craftsmen...
Old Man Yun also led Da Man, Er Man, and Jin Xiaolou to farm. The fields of Dashui Village were densely populated with villagers.
