"Xun'er," Jiang Xixi patted the door, "Are you in good health? If you have nothing to do, you will get up and go to the academy. Your father told you not to be late today."

After a while, the door opened with a creaking sound. Xun'er appeared beside the door and looked at Jiang Xixi timidly, "I'm fine, I can leave." After he said that, he flashed out of the door.

Jiang Xixi followed him, "What's wrong? Are you still uncomfortable? Don't be afraid that Lord Cheng will scold you, I will explain to him."

Xun'er turned her head and smiled at her, "I'm very good, so I feel uncomfortable no matter where. Sister Xixi, let's go quickly, don't be late."

Jiang Xixi breathed a sigh of relief and stepped forward to hold his tender little hand, "I'll help you get the book bag."

Xun'er hugged the cloth bag tightly, "No need, I'm a man, Xixi's sister is a woman, I should be pity for the fragrance and jade."

"Little guy, who are you so slick about?" Jiang Xixi smiled. The two of them held hands and walked through the lively market and headed west. As there were fewer and fewer people in front of them, Yunhu Academy was about to arrive. They turned around and walked into the gate of the academy.

"Sir," Seeing Hu Zhun standing in the yard, Xun'er greeted her and hurried into the classroom.

Jiang Xixi smiled at Hu Zhun, but found that he was not as calm and leisurely as usual. His hair was messy, hung on his chest with a faint Sichuan character printed between his eyebrows.

"Mr. Hu, haven't you had a good rest?"

Hu Zhun smiled softly, but his eyebrows did not stretch. "It's hot and the cicadas keep crying, so it's hard to sleep until dawn."

Jiang Xixi knew that he had something to do, so she tactfully stopped asking. She looked at the wall and found that there were only a few morning glory trees facing the morning sun, desperately showing her tenderness.

The girl Zhusheng in the theater hasn't been here for a long time. Could it be that she has given up on this cold teacher and is unwilling to waste her beautiful years on him again?

Jiang Xixi shrugged. She couldn't understand these things about men and women. She jumped to the wall, picked the branches and held them in her palm and played with them carefully.

"Miss Jiang is here too." Liu Xuzhang's voice sounded behind him. The smile on his face was from the bottom of his heart, completely different from Hu Zhun. "If I hadn't gotten up a little late, I would have come with the girl."

"Mr. Liu really treats Xin'an Mansion as his own home, and he is not at all in and out of the way." Jiang Xixi deliberately teased him with words.

"There is no way. My cousin's yard is small. If he lives with him, I am afraid that someone will misunderstand what I like about Longyang, so I can only live in Lord Cheng's mansion."

Jiang Xixi was amused by him, and she turned her head to look at the classroom, "Mr. Hu, someone is making your rumors here, so I won't come out to see it."

Hu Zhun walked out and looked at Liu Xuzhang with a blank expression, "Why are you here again?"

"This is what I said, the reason why I stayed in Xin'an City is to talk about the past with you and understand your diet and daily life clearly, otherwise I will not be able to explain to my mother when I go back."

"You'd better take good care of yourself," Hu Zhun walked over, grabbed Liu Xuzhang's arm, and pointed to the half-moon scar on it. "You have to do errands and take care of your body. I have to hurt myself so much, so my aunt will feel distressed."

Not to mention Liu Xuzhi, even Jiang Xixi was stunned when she heard his words. She pointed to the scar, "Isn't this hurt by you pushing it down from the tree?"

"Cousin, you won't even forget about this. At that time, you were beaten by your grandfather and dared not go home. You stayed on the river beach all night. Did you lose your memory?" Liu Xuzhi was also very puzzled.

"Is this scar? Why don't I remember it's so big?" Hu Zhun smiled, "It's so rude. My cousin, I didn't expect that I would hurt you so hard when I was a child."

"You," Liu Xuzhang glared at him, "By the way, has your father-in-law come to see you again?"

"Don't worry, he may have been frightened by your fierce look and never came again."

Before he could finish his speech, the main entrance of the academy was suddenly pushed open. Several yamen runners walked in from outside. Seeing Jiang Xixi and Liu Xuzhang, they were stunned for a moment, and then bowed and said, "Mr. Liu, Miss Jiang, we are ordered to take Mr. Hu back to the house. There is a case that needs his assistance to find out."

"What case?" Jiang Xixi and Liu Xutong asked at the same time.

"This morning someone reported to the official that a girl in Qifeng Tower had disappeared. We found out that the last place she appeared was Yunhu Academy."

Cheng Muyou stood in the court, staring at Hu Zhun kneeling below with a complicated expression, "Mr. Hu, although you are Xun'er's teacher, according to the laws and regulations, I have to do things in justice, and I hope you understand."

Hu Zhun was wearing a moon-white robe, with an elegant figure, which formed an extremely sharp contrast with the solemn environment of the court. He smiled at Wuyou, "This is not the first time I have come to this place. If you have any doubts, Hu must have said everything even if you ask questions."

Cheng Muyou nodded, "Can you know the girl Jing'er in Qifenglou?"

"I recognize that she saved my life and was able to get to know each other."

"Have she visited you two days ago?"

"She did come to Yunhu Academy, but she sat for a while before leaving."

“Where did you go?”

"I don't know."

"I don't know?" Cheng Muyou looked at Hu Zhun intently, "What did she come to you for? Although Jing'er is a life-saving person, she is a brothel girl. It is always a bit abnormal to frequently enter and exit your residence."

"Sir, you've asked the neighbors for inquiries," Hu Zhun's face was still as quiet as the lake. "Yes, that Jing'er is indeed in love with me. She always begs and hopes that I can redeem her for her and then take her far away. However, I have no feelings for her that surpasses my friends. I only have my wife Lu Qiao in my heart, so how could I agree to her request?"

"So she came to pester you again that night?"

"Yes, after being rejected by me again, she ran out, but I don't know where she went."

Cheng Muyou raised his head, put his hands behind his back for a while, and then rushed to the hall and said, "Hu Zhun."

"exist."

"I want to send a few people to Yunhu Academy to search, I hope you don't mind."

"Just send someone here, it's not the first time Yunhu Academy has been searched by the government."

It was late at night, but Jiang Xixi was still staying in Cheng Muyou's study. Seeing that the candle wick was too long, she cut it with scissors. The candlelight jumped, reflecting Cheng Muyou's figure focusing on reading on the wall.

"Why haven't you gone to rest?" He closed the pages of the book and looked up at the front.

"I'm thinking about Mr. Hu."
