Chapter 264 On the Street

"We've gone off on a tangent again. There's far too little information about Yan Xu's background. After that, her home was ransacked, she was exiled, and died of illness on the way. Isn't that a bit too hasty?"

"It was fate's arrangement, how could I know? Yan Xu had dealings with the princes at the time, after all, they studied together. Yan Xu's family was also very powerful back then, it's just a pity that they were corrupt, what a pity!"

Ji Xia's regret was not that Yan Xu's father was exiled for embezzlement, but that Yan Xu herself was an outstanding student compared to others at the time, yet she was dragged down by her family.

What are the criteria for entering your school?

An Ge suddenly became curious and asked.

"The royal family must enter my academy. Others, if they come from the Lin Nan City Academy, can also enter directly. For others, the exam scope will be released a month in advance. When the time comes, I will set the questions on the spot, and the results will be announced on the spot."

Yan Xu's entrance exam scores were very high, ranking among the top three at the time.

"Does your school have any identity restrictions?"

"Yes, after all, people who are not in the same circle cannot be together, otherwise serious bullying will occur, not to mention that the lowest-ranking people here are all children of officials."

However, every place has schools, and they have their own paths to follow.

As Ji Xia spoke, he manipulated a bookcase, which appeared before him. He took down a book, which contained some records of the Yi family, but there was very little information. The main branch of the Yi family was in Shenwu City, which was a vast mountainous area. Many people lived deep in the mountains, and the Yi family's ancestral hall was located deep within them.

Within the capital city, the Yi family maintained a low profile, rarely venturing out. Only at a few major banquets would the family head appear with his wife, and unless otherwise requested, he would only bring her. Mystery was the defining characteristic of the Yi family.

Without socializing with others, the Yi family quietly existed in the capital city. However, Yi Wei was an imperial censor of the Censorate, holding an important position, so he was no longer so unknown.

Ji Xia, holding the book, sat down at the desk with a helpless expression. "It seems this book needs updating. This Lord Yi is not someone to be trifled with. If I do something wrong, he will still impeach me."

An Ge stretched, realizing she'd been sitting there too long and had even finished her tea. It was still daytime outside, and An Ge didn't care whether the update was needed or not; she didn't want to stay in there any longer.

"How about we take a break and go shopping?"

"Okay! I'll go if you pay."

"Okay, I'll pay."

The two walked down the street, which was lined with shops, like a commercial street, full of dazzling goods. A carriage was parked ahead; the carriage was very luxurious. There weren't many people on the street, which was typical for a quiet time of year.

A person wearing a light blue dress passed by the carriage and stopped beside it. Looking closer, wasn't that Li Yu? Why was she dressed as a woman? The two slowly approached and saw someone get off the carriage and walk to Li Yu's side.

As if he knew who he was, Li Yu immediately ran away when the man reached his side. "You think I'll listen to you if you tell me not to run?"

Li Yu thought to herself, but after running for a while, she was stopped by the Second Prince's guards. Looking at the guards closing in, Li Yu sighed helplessly. She couldn't defeat so many people. If there were fewer of them, Li Yu was confident she could break through.

Li Yu walked helplessly to Ming Kang's carriage, where the surrounding people had already been driven away. "What are you doing?"

"I just went to your residence, but I didn't see you. I didn't expect to find you here."

Ming Kang went to Li Yu's residence to look for Li Yu, but after learning that Li Yu was not there, Ming Kang was prepared to wait a little longer. However, a servant said, "Second Prince, my general said that no matter who comes, if he is not at home, please return, because he is afraid that the guests will wait too long."

"It's okay, I'm not afraid to wait."
