"Are you for real?"

Gu Hua Jing held onto the hope of rejoicing as she asked again, but Greenwood ruthlessly nodded, "Really, the news has spread outside and Housekeeper Kang even shut the Liu Garden's door. I wonder how many people want to come see Miss."

"…" Hearing this, Gu Hua Jing's eyes immediately glazed over, as if she was a dead fish.

Is there a mistake? What was there to talk about? Didn't the Third Prince feel embarrassed? Her reputation was not good!

As if a broken pot had fallen to the ground, Gu Hua Jing asked again, "Then what kind of rumors are spread outside?"

"The third prince was tempted by young miss's poem. For someone as loyal and loyal as young miss, the second young master of the Bai Family looks down on her, but the third prince appreciates her greatly. That's why …" "Only now …"

There seems to be something wrong with the direction of the rumors …

Gu Hua Jing raised her head, "Did they not say that I had no sense of shame in seducing the Third Prince?"

"Not at the moment. People say that the Third Prince is sincere. Although the Third Prince is very romantic, there's no one in the crown prince's residence that can have a main wife. This time, it's all because of you, young miss."

touching my ass!

Gu Hua Jing couldn't help but want to curse, as if what she said was true. How could she not remember that she once touched the Third Prince's heart?

Wasn't it because he was the daughter of one of the most important officials in the court and couldn't be easily tricked?

What the Third Prince wanted was nothing more than his own medicinal cuisine. He was someone who could support the young master on his own and who would not leak any secrets!

How could he do this? Because he didn't care whether he was willing or not? For his own selfish sake, could he openly disrupt all of her life?

Gu Hua Jing was infuriated beyond words. She bit her lips as she pondered on what to do next.

The bamboo wine beside her reminded her softly, "Miss, it's time to go to the Fang Residence. It's time for you to leave as well."

"…" Gu Hua Jing immediately became dejected. She had almost forgotten about the Fang Residence as well.

It's not like I can't always stay in the garden. Why don't I go out and take a look?

"Prepare the carriage …"

This time, Gu Hua Jing entered the Fang Residence through the side door, and the entire way to the Pure Bamboo Pavilion was much quieter than before, devoid of any traces of life.

"Fourth Miss Gu, please, the Old Master is already inside."

Xiu Zhu respectfully led the way and then quietly retreated.

There was no one else in the Pure Bamboo Pavilion, not even a servant. Gu Hua Jing was aware that what Fang Wan Xin had told her was true, and the Fang family did not dare to disturb the old gramps in the afternoon.

Silently walking in, the door to the bamboo house was open. Gu Hua Jing walked in and saw the Old Master resting with his eyes closed.

"You're here? "It's really hard to invite."

Old Master Fang had his eyes closed and his tone was bad. Gu Hua Jing curled her lips, it wasn't like she wanted to come.

"The Fang family's old patriarch is well."

"Save your false presents. This is the first time I've seen someone who doesn't want to be my disciple. Can you tell me the reason?"

"This little girl is very inexperienced …"

"You don't need to speak any more nonsense. If a person who doesn't study has the chance to do so, he would be hating himself for not letting go of the opportunity. Yet, how can you not be able to stand up when you've invited three or four people?"

"…" Black lines appeared on Gu Hua Jing's face. His father had indeed told him the truth.

"That …"

"What's so bad about being my disciple? Go out and take a look. Which one of my disciples isn't respected? Even officials of the imperial court would have to give them some face if they saw it, but you're not willing? "

"Why should I? "I don't have a job, nor do I want to marry again. No matter how good my reputation is, what does it matter to me?"

The Fang family's old patriarch's overbearing attitude also caused Gu Hua Jing to lose the patience to be perfunctory. Her heart was already in turmoil, and she couldn't help but reveal her true colors, her tone becoming more casual.

"What? You're not pretending anymore?"

"Lordmaster, what are you trying to do? You see, I don't really want to take in any female students, do you?

"Whether you want to accept it or not is up to me to decide. How can it be left up to you if you don't want to come?"

Old Master Fang slapped the table next to him, his eyes wide.

Gu Hua Jing pursed her lips. This was a good show of face!

"Very well. Since I am unable to learn anything, how can I delay your precious time? Just throw me out. Everyone is overjoyed."

"Little girl, don't push yourself too far. How can I go back on my words?" I said that you must accept it, so why are you spouting so much nonsense? "

"…" Gu Hua Jing wanted to cry, but there were no tears. So what was the old gramps holding on to?

Old Master Fang suddenly changed the topic. "You just said that you don't want to marry anyone else. Then according to the rumors, you're going to be a side wife. Where did you come from?"

Gu Hua Jing rolled her eyes, "You like gossiping too, don't you?"

"Eight …" The Fang family's old patriarch almost choked as he glared at her, "Don't talk to me like that. What you've done is completely different from what you've just said."

For the first time, Gu Hua Jing didn't even have the strength to retort after being wrongly accused.

In any case, she didn't need to pretend to be a lady from a noble family anymore, so she just sat there limply, with a helpless look in her eyes.

"So annoying. I can only blame myself for being too beautiful. Even if I don't want to, I'll still be favored by others …"

"Little girl, you're quite thick-skinned."

"Is it not the truth?"

Gu Hua Jing raised her eyelids, her gloomy expression making the Old Master's heart very confused. Was she really unwilling?

But why? If she was able to become the prince's side wife, then the future emperor would be the side wangfei. Why wouldn't she be willing to have such a high honor?

Oh, but it was understandable. Other people would flock to her own disciples, but this girl was still unwilling, wasn't she? What a strange girl.

"Alright, alright. Who cares about your messes. Since you've come, then take a look at all the theories in front of you. Tell me about them when you've finished reading them."

"No way …"

Gu Hua Jing had previously thought that there were so many things on the desk that were inconvenient for her to look at. So they were all for her to see? So many, and when did you see them?

"Why are you talking so much nonsense? I'll show it to you then! "

Old Man Fang glared at her impatiently. "Don't think that you can't learn by relying on your father's pampering. As the daughter of the Gu family, you can't even look at this little thing. Don't you feel embarrassed?"

"I …"

Gu Hua Jing was about to retort, but the Old Master of the Fang family already ignored her and wandered off by himself to the pavilion outside the bamboo house.

In Gu Hua Jing's eyes, that table full of ideas became even more eye-catching. But what should she do? The Old Master had already used all his methods of provocation.

When you're upset, look at things to focus, maybe even good...

Throughout the afternoon, Gu Hua Jing was leisurely holed up in a bamboo house.

Along the way, only Qing Mei came in to bring some refreshments, so no one disturbed them.

Gu Hua Jing found a comfortable position and slowly read through the pages one by one. She felt that the Old Master Fang really had a good eye.

These disciples that had been selected all had great potential. To be able to jump out of the narrow pattern and look at problems, they all had a sharp cut point.

Slowly, Gu Hua Jing's heart calmed down.

These young men her own age had great ambitions in their hearts. They wanted to burn themselves for the nation, and every word they spoke was filled with tenacity and hot-bloodedness.

Compared to them, he felt too comfortable.

Gu Hua Jing tossed the proposal in her hands to the side, then raised her head and closed her eyes to rest.

Her trouble was that she could not live her life in peace and luxury, which, in the eyes of the ambitious, was not worth mentioning.

There should be a way, right?

Wasn't it too much that she didn't want to be someone else's tool? Could it be that if he told Third Prince about this, he would believe that he would keep it a secret?

We are all humans, it shouldn't be too outrageous, right?

She wanted to solve the problem peacefully, even if everyone knew that if the Third Prince could give up on this idea, she would be willing to shoulder the blame. In any case, the lice wouldn't itch, and the blame wouldn't be on the Third Prince.

"How is it?"

Gu Hua Jing opened her eyes. The Fang family's old patriarch had his hands behind his back as he stomped in.

"It's about time."

"Oh, what do you think?"

"Oh, no."

The Fang family's old patriarch's face darkened, "How can it be?" Do you have nothing to say about these ideas? "

Gu Hua Jing didn't understand, so she gave it some serious thought, "Everyone …" Good? "You don't want me to praise you one by one, do you?"

Who asked you to praise them? Didn't you say that you were very reasonable that day, so why didn't you think about it anymore? "

That day?

Gu Hua Jing recalled, Old Master Fang was referring to the matter regarding the allocation of social resources?

It suddenly occurred to her that the Fang family's old patriarch insisted that she come to the Fang family estate. Could this be the reason?

Those policies that seemed strange and related to him, had piqued his interest?

Then, if he did not continue to talk about all this, would Old Master Fang no longer insist on letting him be his disciple?

Gu Hua Jing seemed to feel that she had found a way to solve the problem, but when she raised her head and saw the old man's eyes trying to conceal the excitement in them, she suddenly couldn't find the words to say.

Just like those ambitious young men, wasn't this elder the same as well?

His heart was related to the empire, which was why he was still tirelessly teaching his students at such an advanced age. Wasn't his goal to pass on his ambitions to these young lives?

He would lay down his status and go to the Gu Estate to complain. He would adjust his own time so that he could come over. Perhaps he just wanted to listen to more of those different opinions …

"I... "I think there's a point of view that's interesting. It's about governing a country by law and governing a country by virtue of virtue …"

Gu Hua Jing's voice slowly relaxed. These written and sincere theories, coupled with the knowledge she had learned from the past, allowed her to speak smoothly and fluently.

The Old Master Fang, who had been rather dissatisfied a moment ago, didn't even blink as he listened, occasionally raising his own question and opinion.

Inside the bamboo house, two souls, separated by who knew how many generations, were having an academic collision, making Gu Hua Jing forget all her worries for a moment.

"Big Brother Xiu Zhu, why don't you go in and take a look?" What time was it? My Young Miss hasn't even had dinner yet, is your family's old man alright? "
