Sister, you traveled through time too?

It was two days later when Xiaoyu heard the news that Dongxu had taken office as the president of Qingshan Academy.

"Your Highness, Your Highness~"

Xiao Cuizhi jumped into Qiu Shui Ju and brought the good news that Dong Xu had taken office.

The midday sun was shining brightly, and the mottled shadows of the trees fell on Xiaoyu's face.

She sat quietly on the swing, with Qiu Zhe combing her hair behind her.

The two of them were wearing clothes of the same color, orange and bright.

The persimmon tree in Qiu Shui Ju is hung with full golden leaves, shining brightly in the sun.

This was the night of Qiuzhe's birthday, Xiaoyu and Qiuzhe hung it up little by little.

Even though Cuizhi has looked at this tree several times in the past two days, she still feels shocked when she looks at it again.

It's so inhumane.

Xiaoyu was not surprised when she heard the news brought by Cuizhi, but just nodded.

"Your Highness, should we send gifts to congratulate him?"

"I saw many people giving gifts to Master Taifu's house."

Cuizhi asked, blinking her big innocent eyes.

"He accepted it?" Xiaoyu did not answer, but asked back.

Cuizhi shook her head and said, "Master Taifu didn't take any of them. I heard that he returned them all."

The little fish smiled and nodded, then said, "Go find me a beautiful basket."

Cuizhi nodded and went downstairs quickly.

Qiuzhe gently combed Xiaoyu's hair and said that Jiang Hao's condition had improved a lot and he would probably wake up tomorrow.

"Thank you for your hard work, Azhe." Xiaoyu held Qiuzhe's hand and said softly.

"It's not hard. Saving the dying and healing the wounded is what a doctor should do." Qiuzhe smiled sweetly, feeling warm in his heart.

Ningyang Marquis lost a young master, but he didn't even look for him.

These past two days, Xiaoyu specifically had people keep an eye on Ningyang Marquis' Mansion, and surprisingly found that they were not in a hurry at all.

He didn't even look for his own son when he was lost.

I'm afraid the people in Ningyang Marquis' Mansion would like Jiang Hao to die outside.

They were not in a hurry, Xiaoyu was not in a hurry either, and she had no intention of informing them that Jiang Hao was here.

She already had plans for Jiang Hao, but she still had to wait until Jiang Hao woke up.

Not long after, Cuizhi came back carrying a beautiful and exquisite bamboo basket.

Xiaoyu touched Cuizhi's head and praised: "Well, it's great. This basket is beautiful."

Cuizhi laughed, thinking that His Highness was praising her again.

Xiaoyu carried the basket and climbed up the tree under Qiuzhe's worried gaze.

"Your Highness, if you want to eat persimmons, let me pick them. Come down quickly and be careful not to fall." Cuizhi was anxiously walking around under the tree.

Qiuzhe was also a little worried. Although His Highness had climbed trees and fished a lot in the past, he hadn't climbed trees for many years, so it was normal for him to be worried.

And Xiaoyu just smiled and said: "Oh, it's okay, I'm very good, believe me."

"I'm going to pick a basket of persimmons for Dongxu as a gift. As for gifts, it's more sincere if you pick them yourself."

She smiled brightly, like a mountain spirit or ghost in the sunlight.

The golden leaves on the persimmon tree made the little fish dizzy. She picked and chose, and picked a basket of big, round ones.

After filling the basket, she jumped down under the worried gazes of Cuizhi and the others.

This scared Cuizhi, and she was afraid that the little fish would jump down and fall.

Cuizhi breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that Xiaoyu was fine.

Xiaoyu looked at the full basket of persimmons and thought that since Dongxu brought a basket of pears last time, she might as well bring a basket of persimmons to Dongxu.

Gold, silver and jewelry are rather tacky. Dongxu is frugal, so if the gift is too expensive, I’m afraid Dongxu will be distressed about how to return it.

The persimmons she picked herself are more suitable.

Besides, she had long wanted to go to Dongxu's house to see the parrot.

Cuizhi mentioned the parrot in Dongxu's house last time, and she was eager to catch it and take a look at it.

I haven't been out for a few days, so I went to see the parrot and take a walk under the pretext of visiting Dong Xu.

Perfect~

She didn't waste any time. She changed her clothes immediately and set off with Cuizhi and Chunke.

Qiuzhe was seeing Xiaoyu off at the door, waving a handkerchief and telling Xiaoyu to be careful and come back early.

Xiaoyu sat in the carriage and looked at Qiuzhe, and felt that he was quite like a left-behind child.

The imperial edict announcing Dong Xu as the president of Qingshan Academy had just been issued during the morning court session, but by now the news had spread throughout the city like wildfire.

The reviews are naturally mixed.

If someone is in favor, there will definitely be someone against.

But the imperial decree has been issued, the matter has been decided, and it cannot be easily changed.

It would be useless even if those people knew the truth.

As for whether Dong Xu can hold on to this position and do these things well, it all depends on his own ability.

The little fish was just adding fuel to the fire.

But the rumors about the eldest princess in the imperial city have become extremely mysterious.

Some people say that the eldest princess cares about students, rectifies bad habits, and is a living Bodhisattva who cares about the people.

Some people also said that it was inappropriate for the eldest princess to interfere in government affairs and that it was too rude for the emperor to obey her in everything.

In short, it still has mixed reviews.

But these are just idle talk after dinner, Xiaoyu doesn't care.

She understood that what she really cared about were the noble families in the imperial city.

They have already begun to be wary and will definitely take action.

Who made this happen in her house?

The incident with Xia Jie had already pushed her to the forefront of the aristocratic families, and now she was afraid that she would become the target of public criticism.

But whether it is the fear of assassination or the flattery and enticement, Xiaoyu doesn't take it to heart.

What she does and how she does it is not something these aristocratic families can interfere with.

After all, she has her own brother to support her, so she can just do whatever she wants.

[Ningyang Marquis Mansion]

Jiang Xun sat silently in the study, and the afternoon sun could not illuminate the gloom on his face.

Who would have thought that Dong Xu, who had just offended someone not long ago, would suddenly become the dean of Qingshan Academy today.

He holds several positions and is in charge of such a good job.

I didn't want to apologize at first, but now that he has been promoted, if I don't curry favor with him, he might make things difficult for me in the future.

Moreover, after some investigation, Jiang Xun discovered that Dong Xu had a close personal relationship with the eldest princess, which made him even more wary.

Nowadays, everyone knows that the eldest princess's opinion is the emperor's opinion.

If Dong Xu said something about me in front of the princess, I would be doomed.

The more Jiang Xun thought about it, the more annoyed he became. If Jiang Hao hadn't offended anyone, he wouldn't have to apologize with a smug look on his face.

He thought of Jiang Hao and turned to ask the servant who was serving beside him: "Where is Jiang Hao?"

The servant replied, "That day, after the Marquis used family law to beat the young master, the young master ran away from home."

"I haven't seen the young master for many days."

Jiang Xun frowned. His useless brother ran away from home?

He got into a big trouble and yet he dared to hide outside.

He was covered in wounds and no one knew whether he had died outside.

It would be best if he died outside and never came back, so that Jiang Xun would have no worries.

"Which of his friends' houses did that bastard go to again?"

Jiang Xun asked in a deep voice.

The servant shook his head and said, "Yesterday, the young master's friends came to ask why he didn't come out to play."

"I guess they haven't seen the young master either."

After hearing this, Jiang Xun thought to himself, could it be that he really died outside?

The wounds on Jiang Hao's body that day were horrifying. If he didn't die, he would have been disabled.

It’s better to die outside than to come back half crippled.

"Keep an eye on where he is, and don't tell father."

"Don't make father worry about this bastard again."

If my father knew that Jiang Xun was not at home, he would definitely send someone to look for him.

Jiang Xun doesn't want Jiang Hao to come back safely.

Best, never come back.

"Prepare some generous gifts and go visit the Grand Tutor."

Jiang Xun ordered.

Compared to his brother's life or death, visiting Dong Xu is more important.
