As he stepped into the hall, an oppressive aura assaulted his face.

His father, Gu Zhiyuan, sat on the main seat while his two wives, Gu Qingzhou and Gu Ziyan, sat on the left side of the table. As the first wife, Madam Liu, sat on the left side of the table, Gu Zixi angrily sat next to the little Madam Liu.

Gu Mingyan leisurely walked forward, "Father."

He did not call for anyone else.

If one were to truly calculate the difference in position, she would be the first daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion, and even though the Madam Liu was the first wife, she did not possess Gu Zhiyuan's blood. Her position would naturally not go up, and even though the little Madam Liu appeared, she was still a concubine and a daughter.

If it was really according to the Prime Minister's Mansion, then according to the Gu Family's ancestor's teachings, Madam Liu and little Madam Liu would not be able to bear her salutations.

Seeing that, Gu Zhiyuan did not force it, and merely coughed twice: "Last night's matter was too reckless, you did not know the seriousness of it, and it was all thanks to Seventh Prince that he helped you settle the assassin's back. Why was I abandoned in the palace by His Highness Seventh Prince this morning because I was jealous of him? "

If she hadn't seen through the assassination last night, she was afraid that the prince would be injured today.

But in Gu Zhiyuan's eyes, it was as if it was her fault, as even the reason was not as good as the emperor she saw last night.

It seemed that handsome uncle was not a bad person.

Thinking about it this way, Gu Mingyan showed a look of being wronged, he rubbed his fingers together with the clothes, and lowered his head, "Last night, my daughter was drunk, but fortunately was taken care of by Your Highness. But His Highness kept Big Sister Shuang Hua by his side at all times, which made me feel really uncomfortable. After drinking last night, I was afraid that he accidentally said all of his complaints, so when I woke up this morning, I argued with His Highness. "

When she said the last two words, she even used two fingers to make a distance.

It seemed as if she had really only said a few words.

Even he did not dare to blame the servants of the princes!

His daughter, on the other hand, had a quarrel with the prince because of her personal attendant!

"Debate for a bit!" Gu Zhiyuan immediately slapped the table and stood up, staring angrily: If it's just a few rounds, then how can everyone know about it!

"Daughter is just …"

"Old master, calm down!"

Two voices sounded out at the same time, but Gu Mingyan, whose voice was softer, was the first to lose.

The Madam Liu who had always been at odds with her had already walked in front of Gu Zhiyuan. Holding onto the handkerchief with one hand, he calmed Gu Zhiyuan down, then looked at her with a bit of reprimand: "Mingyan, why aren't you apologizing to your father!"

Since it was an act, he had to act it out until the end.

Since he could not reject Madam Liu's good intentions in defending him, he also could not interrupt Xiao Qiran's plans.

He could only wring a corner of his shirt and remain silent.

Seeing that Gu Zhiyuan was about to get angry again, the Madam Liu looked at him in disappointment, and could only speak carefully: "Mingyan is only fourteen, and is still young, and has an impulsive personality. The Old Master thinks it's better if he finds someone to properly teach him, and this morning, His Highness Seventh Prince has sent someone to serve inside the palace.

Hearing this, Gu Zhiyuan's temper calmed down a little, but she still wore a fierce expression and headed back to the Han Courtyard to think about what she had done wrong.

After leaving the hall, she only shot an indifferent glance at the Madam Liu.

The reason for her support today was probably because she had already decided to cooperate with them the night before.

Those in high positions were capricious and unpredictable, and all of them were driven by benefits.

No matter what era it was, this law had never changed. Even if one had a sincere heart, it would still be covered by all sorts of masks. If one didn't reach the final step, they would never be able to see these people clearly.

Gu Mingyan was used to fighting with these people at Tai Chi, so when he left the hall, his expression immediately turned cold.

However, he ran into Qiu Fu, who was escorting him back. Qiu Fu held onto a small register in his hands, and walked over: "Young miss can choose your own maids, there's even a list of servants in the mansion ahead, every young miss has it."

Qiu Fu's gaze fell on her slender and long fingers.

Her left hand flipped over the namelist, while her other hand gently traced two of her fingertips across the gaps between the pages. There was not the slightest bit of noise, her head was slightly lowered, but her back was upright, and one of her legs under her skirt took a step back, giving off a graceful posture.

Qiu Fu's eyes lit up, he heard Gu Mingyan slowly close the namelist and subconsciously smoothed the corners of the slightly wrinkled book: "I do not like people to take care of me, but I like this namelist a lot. Thank you, Butler Qiu."

As long as First Miss likes it, then there's no one to take care of you for the time being.

As his voice fell, Qiu Fu looked at her and nodded slightly. When that head was raised once again, it was as though he was looking straight ahead with neither contempt nor haughtiness. The light in his eyes was completely different from the innocent and innocent eyes that people usually spoke of in their mansions.

Following behind her, Qiu Fu spoke again: "The old lady has often mentioned the young miss's name, it's a pity that you stayed at the Seventh Prince Prince's residence. A few days ago, the holidays were approaching, the old lady had gone to the temple at the outskirts of the city to pray for her family, I'm afraid we will have to meet during the new year."

She hadn't seen this grandmother of hers at all.

Gu Mingyan was in a slight trance, there were not many memories of this senior in his memories, but the moment he thought of his grandmother, the corners of his mouth twitched, and his fingertips caressed the namelist in his hands: "I wonder what grandmother likes."

"The madame likes to eat and recite Buddhist scriptures. If Eldest Miss is willing to copy two scriptures and gift them to me, I'm sure the madame will be happy."

Qiu Fu took the chance and said.

Only at this time did Gu Mingyan give Qiu Fu another glance. He stopped in his tracks and switched the book in his hand.

This butler had previously ignored him, so how could he treat him so well today? He even intentionally told his grandmother about everything that she liked, as if he was trying to win her over.

But she clearly had no power or influence within the Prime Minister's Mansion …

"If Butler Qiu has any expectations of me, it would be better for me to give up as soon as possible." Gu Mingyan never believed that a good thing would fall from the sky, and there was no reason for the butler to express goodwill towards him, "But if you have any request for me, I would rather you tell me directly."

However, the smile on Qiu Fu's face became even more brilliant, and he gently smiled as he looked at Gu Mingyan.

"I prefer to go straight to the point." Gu Mingyan suddenly laughed.

"I just want to bet on First Miss. As long as I treat you well, I might be able to get even more in the future." Qiu Fu mustered his courage and looked Gu Mingyan in the eye: "I just …"

"It's good that you're willing to take out half of it from your heart. If you follow your father and travel on the same path as the clouds, you might have used up all of your luck in this lifetime."

Gu Mingyan really liked people who were so straightforward, but in the end, she still wanted to leave the Shengan.

Far away.
