Jing Congxin came back with Pu Ge'er. As soon as they entered the room, the three of them went straight to Pu Ge'er's study. The books, writing brushes, inkstones, and paper in the study filled the air with a faint scent of ink.

Jing Chunxi didn't beat around the bush and went straight to the point and said to Jing Congxin, "If I let you study at Wenhua Academy after the New Year, would you be willing?"

When these words came out, Pu Ge'er almost jumped up, his eyes widened, obviously shocked by his sister's decision.

He opened his mouth and almost interrupted, muttering in his heart: Shouldn't he go to Wenhua Academy? Why is it Jing Congxin's turn suddenly?

Is it because he is not studying hard enough? Or does his sister no longer love him?

However, Jing Congxin unexpectedly shook his head and said firmly: "If I want to study, I will only go to Qingshan Villa."

Jing Chunxi raised his eyebrows slightly and advised calmly, "With your grades, you can learn more and go further at Wenhua Academy. The headmaster there is a famous scholar, which will be of great benefit to your future imperial examinations."

Jing Congxin's face remained resolute, unwavering. "I know what Aunt is hoping for, but I can still learn well without spending so much tuition. And please rest assured, Aunt and Cousin Xi, I won't mention going to the shop again."

Hearing this, Jing Chunxi couldn't help but feel a little surprised. She originally thought Jing Congxin was going there to make money, but she didn't expect his attitude to change so much. She couldn't help but ask, "Didn't you say you wanted to be an accountant? Why did you suddenly change your mind?"

Jing Congxin smiled sheepishly, his tone steady: "Today, my aunt gave us a special lesson. I understood it and thought it through. Everything can be planned in the long run. We shouldn't do things on a whim. Otherwise, haste makes waste and we might even end up making things worse."

His words were elegant and refined, reminiscent of his third uncle and second cousin. Jing Chunxi listened and nodded with satisfaction.

Then he asked tentatively, "If I ask you to go to Wenhua Academy, is it to plan for your future?"

Pu Ge'er finally breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this. He then understood that his sister's decision was not a spur-of-the-moment decision, but had a deeper meaning.

After all, if they entered Wenhua Academy with their current status, not only would the tuition be expensive, but it might also attract unnecessary attention and even arouse suspicion from their enemies.

But if it's for revenge, then the situation is completely different.

Jing Congxin obviously understood Jing Chunxi's intention. He nodded firmly and said, "If that's the case, let's go again! If you have any tasks, please let me know."

Jing Chunxi felt relieved when he saw that he agreed so readily.

She continued, "Then you should be prepared and go as soon as school starts after the New Year. However, you must bring a servant with you. Feel free to choose the one that suits you and tell me. When the time comes, I will ask Brother Jing to find you a new identity."

Jing thought about it again and said without hesitation: "Can we use six heads?"

When these words were spoken, not only Jing Chunxi was surprised, but even Pu Ge'er couldn't help but widen his eyes.

Pu Ge'er couldn't help but interrupt, "I remember when you first entered the village, you had a lot of fights with Wutou and Liutou. Why did you choose him now?"

Jing Congxin patted his forehead sheepishly and explained with a smile: "Times have changed, they have changed now.

Before Wu Tou went to the shop, the two brothers discussed that considering their age, they would find a way to join the army!

Their original plan was to get a minor official position, and they had already thought about it. When they came back, they would find a way to get into the Imperial Guard, or guard the city gates, and also find a way to get rid of the officials who had originally impeached the General's Mansion.

Jing Chunxi shook his head and couldn't help laughing: "They are quite brave! But at least they are not so reckless as to kill people now."

Jing Congxin also shook his head, saying seriously, "No, they all listen to Big Brother Jing now and follow his lead. They will never do anything that Big Brother Jing thinks is bad.

Cong Xin had noticed that Liu Tou wasn't as strong as Wu Tou, nor as clever as Xiao Man, but he was calm and collected, never taking the initiative. Someone like him wouldn't attract attention, and wouldn't cause trouble. He thought going there would be a lot of help.

If there is a mission, it is useless to have someone who can read follow me."

After hearing this, Jing Chunxi couldn't help but look at Jing Cong with a new respect. He was not only smart, but also very thoughtful.

Indeed, if the mission is for revenge, there will inevitably be dangers. Having a servant boy who is good at martial arts and behaves calmly by your side can indeed provide considerable help.

However, Jing Chunxi did not immediately arrange specific tasks.

She had learned to be more cautious now and wouldn't be as reckless as before. She planned to inform her mother first, consult with her master, and then make a final decision. After all, this matter was of great importance and could not be sloppy.

……

Yamen Village,

The night was dark, and moonlight shone into the house through the window lattice, illuminating the old lady's anxious face.

The old lady clenched the corners of her clothes tightly with both hands, staring at Jing Yongcheng and Jing Changning opposite her.

On the table lay a newly delivered secret letter, the wax seal on the envelope having been carefully opened.

"What does the letter say?"

The old lady couldn't help asking again, with a hint of anxiety in her voice.

Whenever they received a secret letter, Jing Yongcheng and Jing Changning would read it together. Unless necessary, they would never tell the old lady or anyone else in the family the contents of the letter.

After all, these secret letters often involve important family affairs, and the slightest carelessness may lead to disaster. If family members know about it, it will only increase their worries.

However, this time it was different.

Jing Yongcheng did not avoid his old wife, but handed the letter directly to Jing Changning, motioning him to read it first. Because, this letter was written by Jing Chunxi.

Jing Changning's eyes quickly scanned the handwriting on the letter. His brows gradually furrowed, and his expression grew serious.

After reading the letter, he was silent for a moment, handed the letter back to his father, and whispered, "Father, we must tell my eldest brother about this as soon as possible."

Jing Yongcheng's eyes slowly moved across the letter, his expression changing with the content of the letter. Seeing that the father and son were silent, the old lady grew even more anxious and couldn't help but urge, "What on earth happened? Tell me!"
