Teacher earnestly taught, pen, ink, paper and paper prepared at the side.

It was rare for Gu Mingyan to have any interest in the way of being an official that he spoke of today. Even though there weren't many female officials nowadays, there were quite a few ladies who were willing to try their hand at a position of position, and some even wanted to join the palace's embroidery. As such, this path of being an official could be listened to by both men and women.

"As an official, I should be loyal, filial, righteous …"

However, there were many empty words that could not help but, the brush in Gu Mingyan's hands trembled, and revealed a layer of ink that was overflowing with water.

He helplessly threw the ruined piece of paper into a ball at the corner of the table.

Gu Mingyan moved her body a little, half leaning on the table, with one hand on her cheek, she looked at the table, the spring breeze blew past her face, her sleepiness striking, she was half asleep and half awake, listening to the lecture.

When Xiao Qiran had temporarily settled the matter of Martial Academy, he saw that the eyelashes on his half-closed eyes were gently trembling.

Shuang Hua stood behind and looked, and saw the beautiful figure wrapped under the green robes and white gauze.

She raised her hand and subconsciously wiped the corner of her mouth. After knowing that there was nothing there, she slightly bent her body and curled up into a corner of the table. Listening to what her teacher said, she quickly flipped the book to the right spot, then raised her hands and yawned.

"Your highness was also like this when you were young. Be careful, afraid that the Mr. Xu will hit your palm."

Shuang Hua couldn't help but laugh. It was just that when her Highness was young, he wouldn't worry about her drooling.

Xiao Qiran looked at her helplessly: "If you know too much, you will be killed."

"Your highness should think about how to coax the big miss." Shuang Hua laughed and changed the topic: "You had a lot of things involving her before, yet you did not tell her in detail. What exactly do you mean by that?"

She was only answered with a smile.

Gu Mingyan was still hiding in front of Mister's eyes, and anxiously grinded and ground his dried ink.

It wasn't easy for him to last until the end of the semester, but Teacher Gu held up the paper from the day's exam and stopped her, "Miss Gu, please stay for a moment."

"Yes, sir."

Gu Mingyan could only retract his previous steps, return to the study room, and sit in front of Master.

In the three pieces of paper, only she had scribbled the word 'fate'.

"What does Miss Gu mean by 'not fated'?" The gentleman placed the paper on the table between them.

"It's literal meaning. Since I'm not fated for this, I naturally have never tasted or read it before. Now that I've come here to take the exam, the only thing I can write is this word."

Gu Mingyan lowered his head, his two hands messing up the muslin cloth on his sleeves.

"Miss Gu is the direct daughter of the Prime Minister. The Prime Minister has sent someone over a few days ago to ask me to teach her well, but if Miss Gu doesn't study like this, I can only inform the Prime Minister about this matter."

Gu Mingyan's face immediately turned bitter: "Father said that I'm simple is fine."

"Miss Gu, if you marry into the Imperial family in the future, you will only ruin the face of the Seventh Prince's highness."

Sighing repeatedly, the mister wished that he could teach this shameless young miss a lesson.

Seeing the look of confusion on Mister's face, Gu Mingyan could only clench his fist, and did not dare to refute.

If he refuted it, he would not know how Gu Zhiyuan was going to discipline him when he returned.

"You want to enter the library on this piece of paper? Go back and write another one, even if someone else has to write it for you. It's better than writing it hastily."

After all, if there was anyone looking for a treasure in the future, it would be better to leave some face for big miss Prime Minister's Mansion. That was the reason why she was left alone, and not in front of everyone else.

Gu Mingyan unbelievably opened his eyes wide, and in the end, could only bitterly take it back.

"Even if Eldest Miss Gu doesn't care about her own reputation, please take into account her family's reputation."

After saying this, Mister left. Gu Mingyan got up and bowed to Mister, then impatiently crumpled the piece of Fortune in his hand and threw it into a corner, his eyes not seeing it at all.

After leaving the study, he saw that Gu Ziyan was already waiting with Qiu Mei.

"Eldest Miss, it was the servants who failed in their duties before." Chun Ying bowed to her in unison.

"It's fine."

Gu Mingyan casually walked past the three, took the scroll that the Mr. Xu left for him from the shelf, and then walked out steadily.

When she reached outside the door, she did not see anyone by Xiao Qiran's side, which made her feel a little disappointed.

On the surface, the reason was because he was staying at the National Duke's Mansion. However, if he were to appear to be inseparable from the Seventh Prince, it would instead be weird.

Suppressing the dissatisfaction in his heart, he climbed up Prime Minister's Mansion's carriage.

The spring breeze was gentle, but when the sun set in the west, the wind was like a blade sweeping across his face, causing him to tremble slightly.

When Gu Mingyan got off the carriage, he shrank his neck and just as he entered the hall, before he could even see the expression on Gu Zhiyuan's face, he heard him yell: "Kneel!"

Gu Mingyan no longer bothered to look at his expression, she lifted up her skirt and immediately kneeled on the ice-cold bricks.

With his back straightened, he raised his head and gazed at Gu Zhiyuan with his calm eyes, both of his hands slowly resting on his thighs, making it impossible for anyone to find anything wrong, and the voice was light: "Why did daddy make my daughter kneel?"

"Zhiyuan ah, Mingyan just had a stroke of cold wind. This floor tile is so cold, what can you do if you fall sick …"

He only heard his grandmother leaning on her walking stick as she opened her mouth to ask Grandma Wu to help her to get up and stop her.

"Mother still took good care of Xu'er, so I'll leave the matter of Ming Yan to my son." Gu Zhiyuan looked at his mother coldly, his voice cold. He could not hear any filial piety in his voice.

Gu Mingyan could only give a meaningful glance to Gu Xu, who hurriedly walked up, and helped his grandmother to sit down. His eyes were filled with tears, and he looked at Gu Zhiyuan again: "Father, big sis is only …"

"Shut up!"

Gu Zhiyuan said, and immediately took the ruler from Qiu Fu's hand.

The Madam Liu and the little Madam Liu sat on either side of them, gathering their own children. They did not have any plans to help them.

Thinking about it, since Gu Mingyan had stayed in the National Duke's Mansion for the past few days, according to Madam Liu's thoughts, he probably did not trust him. He was afraid that she was tying the strings for the National Duke's Mansion without any intentions of cooperation.

Before she could figure out what had happened, the ruler had already landed heavily on her arm.

Gritting her teeth, she suppressed the stifled groan that was about to escape her lips. She looked up at her moody father and asked, "Your daughter doesn't know what's wrong with her?"

"You are my, Gu Zhiyuan's, daughter, so why do you want to help me?"

Gu Zhiyuan looked coldly, and the ruler landed heavily on her back, her voice cold: "Today, above the imperial court, the Emperor specially mentioned your name, saying that you borrowed the Seventh Prince's mouth to take the position of the Treasure Vault for National Duke's Mansion, do you know how many pairs of eyes were staring at our Prime Minister's Mansion!"

His eyes went wide with disbelief.

Didn't this handsome uncle push her into a fire pit with his words?
