After the discussion, they took action separately. Xiaohuan and Rongmu began to pack their luggage. Ruyi called San Aunt and called Rui'er to the room.

"Rui'er, my mother is going to the capital with Uncle Rongmu and Sister Xiao Huan to find your father. You have to be obedient at Grandma's house. Do you understand?" Ruyi touched the corner on Rui'er's head and said.

She looked at the child's facial features carefully and looked more and more like his father, even the expression of pursing her lips was like.

Rui'er nodded, calmed surprisingly, and said, "I get it."

He didn't cry or make a fuss. Ruyi knew that although she was less than six years old, she had experienced the sealing of the door in the past half month. From Liu's house to the third uncle's house, and then to the third aunt's house, Qi Rui had already understood the situation at home.

But the more sensible he is, the more distressed Ruyi feels.

"Aunt San, this child is a little naughty. I will work hard for you in the future." Ruyi said to Aunt San with tears in her eyes.

"Oh, if you wrap it around me, I will treat him like my own son." Aunt San said.

"According to Shangsi Festival, Rui'er is six years old. I have already agreed with the teacher from a bookstore in Chengdong that I will send him to study."

She is going to miss her son's first admission ceremony.

"I will take him to school and school. I will return him to you when you come back." Aunt San couldn't help but tears and took out her handkerchief to wipe it.

Ruyi went into the house and took out Qi Rui's schoolbag, a small square scarf, and two blue shirts that she had made, one thin and one thick.

"This is the clothes, a square scarf and a schoolbag he needs to wear at school."

Ruyi looked at Aunt San with some reluctance to take away these clothes.

The seventeenth day of the first lunar month of the 26th year of Wanli.

Today is the day for Ruyi and their departure.

Ruyi got up before dawn and finally looked at Qi Chen who was still sleeping soundly. When she came out of the house, she saw that there was no movement in the east wing room.

She was afraid that she would not be able to make up, so she asked Zhou Ma to take Kairui to the east wing to rest a day in advance. Her son should be still in her sleep at this time.

She couldn't stand this kind of parting scene. Leaving while Kiri was asleep would be a little better for her or Kiri.

When Ruyi walked outside the gate, Rongmu had already packed the luggage on the carriage, and Xiaohuan was talking to the coachman.

"Let's go." Ruyi said lightly.

Just as she was about to get on the bus, a tender voice came from behind: "Mom!"

It's Ruier!

Ruyi turned her head and saw that Qi Rui was wearing her made shirt, a small square scarf, and a small schoolbag on her body. She was standing at the gate and calling her, followed by Zhou Ma, who was full of anxiety on her face.

"Mom! Look, I'm a scholar!"

"Rui'er!" Ruyi responded to him, hesitated for a moment, turned her head and got in the car again, lifted the curtain and said to Rui'er, "Mom is gone, you have to listen to Grandma Third!"

"Madam..." Rong Mu felt a little embarrassed when he saw this situation.

"Let's go." Two lines of tears had flowed out from the corners of Ruyi's eyes, and they could not stop them.

When her adoptive mother insisted on her killing Rui'er, she suffered a lot and was almost dragged to Shentang by crazy villagers and did not give up on him. Now she is going to separate from him...

During those long five years, when she was the loneliest and helpless, Kirui became the only comfort in her life, and now she wants to leave him behind and find his father with uncertain future...

She knew that if she stopped now, she would be unable to move forward.

If you have any suffering, let her bear it alone!

The carriage had already started to drive forward. Rui'er stepped out of the gate and ran all the way to chase the carriage. Zhou's mother hurriedly followed him and said, "Rui'er, be careful, don't fall!"

"Mom, you must bring your dad back!"

The carriage gradually drifted away until Kiri could no longer catch up. His mother disappeared from the other end of the road with the carriage.

When Zhou Ma caught up with Qi Rui, he stood there firmly, suddenly plopped and fell to the ground, kowtowing three times in the direction of Ruyi's distant direction.

"Mom, when you come back, I will be a real scholar!"

When he could no longer hear the child's voice, Ruyi wiped away her tears and lifted the curtain to look out the window.

They had already driven to the west lake. From afar, she saw Gushan, where they had not completed a village at the foot of the mountain.

After the Liu family encountered an accident, the project of the other village also stopped. Now only the frames of pavilions and towers still stand in the bleak cold wind.

That was a beautiful future that Liu Chengzhi promised to her, and now, she has to rely on herself to find the future back!

After walking on the road for nearly two days, they finally arrived at Donglin Academy in Wuxi.

Before Ruyi handed over the letter to the visit, she felt that these scholars and officials valued ethics the most. It was a bit unruly for her woman to come to visit with her servants, but in order to save her husband, she didn't care about this.

But when Gu Xiancheng saw that it was the Liu family's visit, he warmly welcomed them.

Rongmu followed Liu Chengzhi to Donglin Academy and met with the Gu brothers. He told in detail about the arrest of Liu Chengzhi, the previous offense of Gao Huai in Changzhou, and the fact that he knew that the Liu family might be related to Yang Yinglong in Bozhou.

After thinking about it, Gu Xiancheng felt that the case was full of loopholes and something was strange, but he believed in Liu Chengzhi's character, especially when he heard Rong Mu talk about Liu Chengzhi's help in opposing Gao Huai's subordinates' forced demolition of houses, he felt that this person must be a kind person.

But hearing cases is a matter of the Ministry of Justice. He is a "idler" who resigns from office and returns home. Even if he can evaluate the government affairs, he does not have the power to call the wind and rain.

When he was working in the Ministry of Personnel in the capital, although many high-ranking officials appreciated him, his official position was not high after all, but he thought that someone should be able to help...

"Let's do this, I'm writing a letter for you. You will take it to Nanjing Imperial College to find a Siye named Ye Xianggao. Although he has a low official position, he is honest and capable, and he is a Shuji scholar. He has a lot of knowledge and reputation in the court, so he should be able to help." Gu Xiancheng said.

He was an official in the same dynasty as Ye Xianggao, and admired each other's talents and character, which was considered to be mutual appreciation. He was exiled because of the "national foundation dispute" and then resigned and returned to his hometown. Ye Xianggao went from Shujishi to Hanlin editor, and then transferred to Nanjing to serve as the Imperial College.

The so-called Shujishi is an official position in which he handles daily documents for the cabinet ministers and the emperor in the Wenhua Palace. Although his position is not high, only the best in the imperial examination can be selected. The chief ministers and cabinet ministers of all dynasties have had the experience of serving as Shujishishi. Many high-ranking officials have also served as Shujishishi, which is equivalent to a stepping stone to rise to the forefront.

Although Ye Xianggao is not at the moment's current official position, with his talent and human rights, promotion is only a matter of time.

"Then I'll thank Mr. Gu!" Ruyi bowed to Gu Xiancheng, brought his letters, and hurried to Nanjing.
Chapter completed!
