Chapter 87 Preparing to Go to the Capital
He ignored the affection between husband and wife, and did not care that he had spent so many years studying for the exam, and was supported by the Li family.
Miss Li Zi was unwilling to demote her wife to a concubine and wanted to divorce her.
Who is Miss Li? She took out the account book of the money he had spent in the Li family over the years and forced the man from the Cao family to write a divorce letter and a written agreement to sever ties with the child in her belly.
Otherwise, spread his deeds and see how he can marry a noble lady and still have the nerve to stay in the capital as an official.
Although the Li family did not publicize this matter because they were worried that the Cao family member was an official in the capital.
But after Miss Li came back and died of depression during childbirth, the news spread within a small area of Lin'an County.
After all, no matter who is in this situation, who can really endure it?
Those who knew the cause and effect of this incident agreed with what Li Ziyu said.
As a son, how could he not feel resentment and hatred towards an ungrateful person who, after becoming rich, indirectly caused the death of his biological mother?
The eldest uncle of the Cao family was shocked when he saw the hatred hidden in Li Ziyu's eyes.
Only then did they face the reality: this ungrateful person never considered the Cao family as his relatives at all.
There was a sinister flash in Uncle Cao's eyes.
Since you don't consider our Cao family as your relatives, then you can't pursue a career in politics anymore. Otherwise, this boy will not only fail to help the Cao family bring glory, but will also likely ruin the Cao family's current affluent life.
Uncle Cao, who is selfish and vicious, would never allow such a thing.
So shortly after being driven out, he wrote a letter to the capital city regarding Li Ziyu's affairs.
Uncle Cao didn't need to think too much about this son who might hinder his official career and for whom he had no feelings. He knew roughly what decision his cold-hearted cousin would make.
Just after An Xin finished the celebratory banquet for all the students, he returned to his favorite leisurely life of lying down and doing nothing.
That day, she had just laid down to bask in the sun and read her favorite book when the system, which had not been active for a long time, started bubbling up.
And he seemed very anxious.
[Host, please go to the capital quickly. Kong Xun is in danger and his life is at stake.]
After hearing this, An Xin blinked and looked back at the book.
[What does this have to do with me?]
The system was stunned.
[Wow, my host is so heartless. Aren’t they already friends? How can he say such things?]
An Xin curled her lips. There are so many friends in life that you meet by chance, and they are not your life-long friends. How can you save a friend just because he is in danger?
Saving people may cost one's own life if one is not careful. She is still trying to earn life points to increase her lifespan. It's not like she thinks she has lived too long.
Seeing that his host really had no intention of rescuing people, and being ordered by the Lord God System to save the dynasty that was about to collapse, the Ergou system had to lower its posture.
[Dear, what do you want me to do to save people?]
An Xin touched his chin.
The capital city was the most prosperous place in ancient times. In fact, she was still curious about it and thought it would be nice to go and take a look.
[Ten years of lifespan, Kong Xun's true identity, and the cheats needed to save Kong Xun. You are responsible for everything. I don't do missions to save people.]
The system was dumbfounded. This was a way of shifting the blame to others without taking any consequences.
The Ergou system cried and promised not to bind to the host randomly in the future.
Especially for the host who, when being bound, resolutely resists the unequal treaty in his consciousness, it really can't hold on.
After waiting for a while and not getting any answer, An Xin covered his face with the book.
[It’s okay if you don’t want to, just don’t disturb my rest]
After saying this, I prepared to take a nap.
Now, the system that wanted to stretch her became anxious all of a sudden. Anything that messed up the main god system's tasks would be destroyed.
At that time, the host will die naturally according to the fate of this body, but it will disappear forever.
[No, Master, I agree. The antidote to save Kong Xun has been placed in the system's secret cabinet. The host can take it out anytime he needs it.]
An Xin curled the corners of her mouth. She might not be the smartest host, but she had a heart that did not want to be a puppet and would rather die in glory than live in disgrace.
Sometimes death is not scary, but being out of control and being controlled is scary.
An Xin used ten years of life value on herself. After three blessings, her life span has increased from thirty years old to forty-six years old.

Good, good! It seems that she is one step closer to the end of her life.
The Ergou system was once again fooled by its fearless host and it hid in a corner and became autistic.
Since An Xin had promised her little aunt to save the people, she did not waste any more time, for fear that if she was too late, Kong Xun, the delicate young man's life would be in jeopardy, and he would be finished before she could save him.
The next day, she asked someone to find Uncle An to discuss her next move.
Uncle An knew that she was going to the capital, and thought that she would accompany a few students to participate in the imperial examination in the spring of next year. Without giving it much thought, he agreed to help her manage Wanhua Academy with a few teachers.
Uncle An has made great progress now. He is no longer the dull scholar who relied on his brother for everything. After his brother's death, he took over the academy in a hurry, leaving the entire academy deserted.
The current Cangyun Academy has been overshadowed by the brilliance of Wanhua Academy and can no longer hold its head up.
Even if Shanzhang Wang wanted to do something, Lin'an County Magistrate Sun would not let Wang Renjie do it for the sake of An Xin and her several students who had passed the imperial examinations.
Wang Renjie also knew this truth. He wanted to crush Wanhua Academy, but An Xin stubbornly refused to sell the academy to him.
After slowly rising up with a few students who were said to be useless, he knew that his Cangyun Academy's dream of dominating Lin'an County was shattered.
It is just the beginning of October now, and the temperature in Lin'an County in the south is not very cold yet. An Xin wants to go to the capital at this time.
I just notified a few people that whether they want to go to the capital in advance to prepare for the imperial examination is up to them to decide.
Leng Xiangbai and An Rui had been living in the academy. When An Xin informed them, they thought about it for a moment and agreed to go with her.
Later, Li Ziyu and Zhu Shijing also sent a letter, asking about the time, and said that they would make arrangements at home and go to the capital with her in advance.
Jiang Zhou's parents originally wanted their son to go to Beijing later, but when they saw that the others had agreed, they worried that it would be unsafe for their son to go to Beijing alone, so they packed Jiang Zhou's luggage and asked him to go with them.
What An Xin didn't expect was the Liu family.
Not only did Liu Boxing want to go with An Xin and the others, but even General Liu, who had resigned from office many years ago, and Doctor Su also said they wanted to return to the capital and wanted to go back with them.
The two elders also said that they had houses in the capital and there were few people in their family, so An Xin and the others could go and live there to have some fun.
Before the group set off, the two old men had a quarrel over where they should live when they arrived in the capital.
