The news that Emperor Taihe wrote the plaque for the academy and served as its president has been gradually leaked.

Now the news has spread, not only the local people in Gusu know about it, but even many people from other places have heard about it.

As the news spread, many people became interested.

The wealthy families in Suzhou even made additional donations to the academy, just so that they could appear gloriously on the monument of merit in the future.

Jiang Er had already spread the news that he would erect a monument of merit in the academy and engrave the names of the donors on it.

Now there are many stone tablets placed in the academy, waiting to be officially engraved.

Many people in Gusu were paying attention to these academies. Seeing that the stone tablets were already prepared, how could they sit still?

So they all rushed to grab this last moment, fearing that if they were a step slower, the stone tablet would be carved and their ranking would not be good enough.

Because the names on the tombstone are not arranged in the order of donation, but according to the amount of donation.

These people naturally don't want to be outdone by others.

In the past, they didn't know that Emperor Taihe would become the president of the academy, so they naturally cared more about the money they had and were unwilling to donate more.

Now that we have the reputation of Emperor Taihe, who would be willing to fall behind?

Not only the local people in Gusu care about these academies, but many people from other places also send their children here just to let them enter the academies.

So Gusu has been particularly lively recently.

When Jiang Er and others rushed to Gusu, the closer they got to Gusu, the more they found that there were many more carriages and horses on the road.

After asking, I found out that they all came for the academy in Gusu.

Jiang Er couldn't help but feel a little proud. During the break, he deliberately said to Baisui: "Did you notice those people? They all want to enter my academy!"

Baisui looked at his cocky look and couldn't help but feel a little disgusted, but he still said politely: "The Second Young Master is indeed very powerful."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Er straightened his chin and chest a little higher, but said modestly: "I'm just average. Compared to those truly powerful people, I'm still far behind."

He even waved his hands, trying to appear not to be arrogant or complacent.

Baisui was speechless.

Although she had been playing the role of a miracle doctor and running around recently, she was not very clear about the situation in Gusu.

But she had heard a lot about Jiang Er's abilities and what kind of person he was when she was in the capital.

This guy actually had the nerve to act pretentiously in front of her and flatter himself.

Could it be that he thought that when she was in the capital, she turned a deaf ear to what was happening outside?

She is not deaf.

Baisui was too lazy to respond. She just wanted to get to Gusu as soon as possible to see Feng Xinyi and the others.

Unfortunately, they brought a lot of books this time, so they walked a little slowly on the way.

After another two days of travel, they finally arrived in Gusu.

Jiang Er saw Baisui's impatience and thought that he was anxious to see Xie Ying, so as soon as he entered the city, he sent Baisui and Changming to the prefectural government office.

Baisui looked at the street scene outside the window curiously, with mixed feelings.

Finally, the carriage arrived at the Gusu Yamen.

Jiang Er looked at the familiar gate and suddenly became excited.

"Come on, I'll take you to see Yingying. I wonder if that girl has gotten fatter."

Baisui glanced at him, and the image of Xie Ying when they left the capital suddenly appeared in his mind.

Now that almost a year has passed, Xie Ying must have grown up a lot, and I don’t know what she looks like now.

Baisui couldn't help but feel a little excited.

When the doorman saw Jiang Er, he quickly opened the door and invited them in.

However, he didn't recognize Baisui and Changming, so he couldn't help but take a few more glances. Baisui was wearing a mask, which was fine, but Changming had a large scar on his face, which was really scary.

The doorman's face turned pale, but fortunately he didn't scream. He just didn't dare to look at Changming again.

Changming was already accustomed to the fearful looks of others and did not feel offended.

However, Jiang Er still looked at Bai Sui a few more times, worried that she was feeling bad.

Baisui noticed his gaze and said calmly, "Second Young Master, don't worry about it. I don't care about these things anymore."

When Jiang Er heard her words, he couldn't help but think of the terrible black spots on her face, and felt uncomfortable.

No one doesn't care about his or her own face.

Even though he is a man, he would still worry about his facial appearance and look in the mirror several times a day, for fear that there would be something dirty on his face that would make people laugh at him.

A girl of a hundred years old had something like that on her face. She could only cover her face with a mask every day and had to endure other people's looks of surprise, disgust, or pity.

How can I feel good?

Anyway, if it were him, he might not have the courage to continue living.

As he was thinking, he suddenly heard a noise, like the sound of wheels rolling on the ground.

It's just a little strange. From the sound, the wheel doesn't seem to be very big?

Jiang Er looked over curiously, and was surprised to see that Xie Ying seemed to be holding something in her hand and was rushing towards them quickly!

Jiang Er's eyes widened instantly, staring at the thing in Xie Ying's hand.

Then I saw Xie Ying flying towards me as if she could fly.

Jiang Er’s eyes almost popped out!

Baisui's eyes lit up, and he looked at the children's scooter in Xie Ying's hand with burning eyes, as if he had discovered some treasure.

Soon, Xie Ying came in front of the group on a children's scooter.

She gripped the steering wheel and saw that everyone was staring at the small car in her hands. She couldn't help but raise her chin proudly and deliberately asked Jiang Er: "Why are you here? Where is Brother Yuan? Who are they?"

Changming looked at Xie Ying's delicate and delicate appearance, and subconsciously raised his hand to cover the scar on his face, worried that he would scare this beautiful little girl.

Xie Ying, however, looked at his and Bai Sui's faces curiously, not looking frightened at all.

She had seen all kinds of scars, even many corpses torn to pieces. How could she be afraid of a small scar?

However, Changming's scar looks like it was caused by a burn, which is really strange.

Jiang Er was still looking at the car in Xie Ying's hand: "Yingying, what kind of car is this? Who made it?"

Xie Ying said as a matter of course: "I asked someone to do it! Isn't it amazing?"

She told the truth directly, not afraid that Jiang Er would think too much.

Jiang Er was indeed standing there in a daze, with a silly look on his face that said, "Are you kidding me?"

Xie Ying couldn't help but feel speechless. She had it made by someone else, so what was so strange about it? It was just a children's balance bike, a toy, not complicated at all.

Jiang Er secretly complained in his heart: These kids are really getting too much. Are they stupid for bullying adults? How old is Xie Ying? When he was this age, he was still playing in the mud! What two-year-old kid could be so capable? Could he have been self-taught in the womb?
