As long as she could prove himself to Gu Zhiyuan, he would definitely treat her well, and Madam Liu was the same.

His grandmother lived in the most unique seven star courtyard, but her position was as lowly as Gu Zixi, a concubine. Furthermore, it was definitely not a good idea for her brother to climb over the wall and come here day and night like that, even with Wei Bai's guidance, he was able to make his brother travel quickly within a day.

After waking up from a nap in the infirmary, she had already come up with an idea.

The rain outside the window did not stop, and the inside of the window was still cold from the winter.

She reluctantly moved her body and threw away the octagonal golden plate and the octagonal golden plate without leaving a trace. Before she found a way to solve the problem, she could not continue to touch the poison.

Yu Hao did not detect it, he only thought that the Octagonal Maple, which was highly toxic, was hidden in the pavilion.

"They left school early, you should leave quickly as well."

Seeing that she had woken up, Yu Hao reminded her.

"I'm sorry for today, Teacher Yu. I actually slept here." Gu Mingyan laughed as he supported himself up from the table. Seeing that Yu Hao did not mind, he took his paper umbrella and slowly walked back.

Most of the people in the academy had already left, the Prime Minister's Mansion carriage never waited for her to arrive as a young miss, and never asked for anything from her father either. Adding the tolerance from before, Gu Zhiyuan was afraid that he did not know how to treat himself.

As she walked along the long street, she happened to see a young master sending servants to bully a young man. Several servants started to curse him as they attacked; it sounded like this young man was carrying goods from the pier and had bumped into the young master.

Just as she was thinking about whether she should join in on the fun, she heard a person who was watching the fun by her ear open his mouth first.

"This young master of the Xia Manor is really arrogant and despotic. There's no logic in beating someone in the streets!"

"Let's not talk too much. Xia Manor is the vice minister of the military, and their friends hold important positions in the army. No one dares to stop them from running amok. They're only casually beating someone up."

The two ladies chatted as they walked, but not many people came to watch the show.

When it was raining, most people were in a hurry.

On the other hand, if Gu Mingyan thought of Xia Ziji today, wouldn't that mean that the young master inside was Xia Ziji?

Thinking of this, she pushed her way through the crowd.

He just saw Xia Ziji standing at the side with a long blade in his arms, with two servants standing beside him. One of them was holding up an umbrella, while the other was clamoring to make the servants teach him a lesson, and the other had even threatened: "Hurry up and fight, it's just nice that Young Noble is venting your anger today."

"You talk too much!" Xia Ziji immediately elbowed to the person beside him.

The servant clutched his stomach and retreated a few steps, standing in the rain, not daring to complain to Xia Ziji.

The young man on the ground was already covered in green and purple leaves. The tea leaves that he had brought from the pier were scattered all over the ground. They were all wet from the rain, so it was unlikely that they could be used.

"I didn't know that you bullied the weak in the academy, but when you were outside, you dared to bully the weak."

Gu Mingyan did not like Xia Ziji's look at her, and immediately went forward to greet him with a smile.

Upon seeing Gu Mingyan, Xia Ziji's face changed. Several servants turned their heads, but they did not know Gu Mingyan's identity, so it was one of Xia Ziji's servants who knew: "Don't think that just because you're the big miss of Prime Minister's Mansion, you can say such arrogant words and insult my Young Master."

"What insult? It's just that I'm dissatisfied to see that such a good tea leaves are useless."

Gu Mingyan directly walked over, and the servant who was beating her immediately withdrew his hands when he heard her identity, so as to not hurt her.

Taking this opportunity, Gu Mingyan looked down at the young man on the ground and realized that he was only sixteen or seventeen years old. It was only because he was born tall and had long arms and legs that he mistakenly thought him to be a young man.

"Brother, you should get up first. If you get wet, you won't only lose this bag of tea leaves."

Gu Mingyan did not want to be contaminated with the dirty rain water, but he could not bear to see the young man being humiliated.

"Big brother?" Xia Ziji slightly narrowed his eyes: "I never thought that big miss Prime Minister's Mansion would actually have a big brother."

"I do indeed have a brother called Gu Qingzhou, but I only call him brother because he's older than me." It was only then that Gu Mingyan thought that these words were rather inappropriate in the ancient times. Right now, he only frowned slightly, then stuffed the handkerchief into's hands, and looked at him again: "I can't bear to see your lecturing attitude, today I'm taking this little brother away."

If he wanted to send someone to chase him, he naturally had to get past Gu Mingyan.

Xia Ziji's expression was terrifyingly dark. It was possible that after being defeated and humiliated by her today, he still did not want to face her head on.

"Young master, we have more people …"

"Idiot!" Xia Ziji simply gave him a slap, and quickly caught up to Gu Mingyan, stopping her and the other person: "Since he charged at me, why shouldn't I teach him a lesson."

"Since you've blocked me now, is there nothing wrong with me teaching you a lesson?" Gu Mingyan stepped forward with his umbrella, raised his head and glared at him fiercely: "Get out of the way!"

With that, she dragged the young man forward without a care in the world.

Xia Ziji was afraid that he would run into her, so even though he was unwilling, on the surface, he still staggered a few steps to open up a path.

The surrounding people were all discussing, this young miss Prime Minister's Mansion was actually a kind-hearted person.

Leaving the group of people, Gu Mingyan saw that the person beside him had remained silent. He thought for a moment, then handed the last piece of handkerchief to him: "Wipe your face, I'll accompany you to speak with the manager, if not, how long will you lose this bag of tea?"

In any case, she had already taken care of the troublesome matters, so sending another person back wasn't out of the question.

After saying that, she looked around before stopping and looking at him. "Don't be silent. I don't know where the pier is. How do I send you back?"

"Over here." The man spoke in a low voice, his face hidden from Gu Mingyan's gaze.

Gu Mingyan did not mind, she followed him for a long time before finally arriving at the pier.

The Shengan is not close to the great river or the ocean, so the size of the pier is average. Seeing that there is nothing on the young man, the person jumped in panic: "What did you go to do? "Do you know how much we would have to pay if we were to lose a bag of tea leaves?"

"I'll compensate you." The young man spoke stiffly.

"What are you going to compensate me for?" Gu Mingyan smashed him with his elbow in frustration and looked at the manager again: "Go and ask the assistant minister of the Army Department for this bag of tea's worth of silver. Tell him that it was my Miss Prime Minister's Mansion who asked him to compensate her."

When the steward saw Gu Mingyan's clothes and heard his name, he immediately laughed and rubbed his hands together, "So it's Young Miss."

He raised his eyes to look at the girl in front of him. Even though he was experienced and knowledgeable, he was still a fool.

The woman's face was clean, her nose straight, her lips thin, but when matched with her beautiful eyes, her voice was as clear and beautiful as a bird's song.

"The rain is getting heavier and heavier, but Eldest Miss isn't able to …" "Stay for a cup of tea. My Young Lord will be coming over soon."

"Who is your Young Lord?" Gu Mingyan did not understand.

"Four Seas Escort Office, Tong Hui." The steward quickly regained his composure.

This time, Gu Mingyan remembered that Tong Hui was her brother and agreed immediately: "I can wait, but you must send someone to my residence to inform me, otherwise father will scold me."

"Naturally." The steward hurriedly ordered people to serve tea.
