For a moment, the entire boat suddenly became quiet.

The women looked at Su Yuejian with extremely eager eyes, especially Su Wan and Zhou Min. Their eyes were sparkling as they stared at her without blinking, their heartbeats pounding.

Freedom without boundaries,

Fly freely.

This is what their hearts desire.

Shen Wenshu was also in the crowd, staring at Su Yuejian in astonishment, then a smile appeared on her red lips.

Before everyone could come to their senses, a gentle voice came from outside the boat.

"well said!"

When everyone heard the sound, they turned around and saw that Xie Jiusi and Xiao Chengchang were already standing at the door.

Xie Jiusi's figure was as tall and straight as a pine or cypress in a moon-white robe with silver thread and dark floral patterns. He wore a jade crown to tie his hair, and there was a faint smile between his eyebrows. He looked like a man in the bright moon and fresh breeze.

Xiao Chengchang beside him was also wearing white. Although he was handsome, his gentle temperament was much inferior when standing next to Xie Jiusi. Fortunately, his natural royal blood could add some majesty to him.

Some ladies looked at the two of them and blushed secretly.

The students of the Imperial College were stunned when they saw the people behind them.

The person who came was none other than Li Shushi, the chief academic officer of the Imperial College, and the person standing next to him made everyone open their eyes wide.

Some people present rubbed their eyes, thinking they were seeing things. He was wearing a green shirt with willow patterns and a jade screen flute hanging around his waist.

That’s right! It’s him!

It turned out to be the famous Master Yan Xu, the number one chess master in Tianjin!

Master Yan Xu has been in seclusion for many years, I didn’t expect him to show up today!

It's like the sun rises from the west!

Everyone automatically made way for them, and Xie Jiusi walked straight to Su Yuemian.

"Princess Minghua is truly the best in Tianjin. I bow down to you."

Xie Jiusi's gaze fell on Su Yuejian, with a faint smile in his eyes.

Just then, a gentle breeze blew by, and the moon-white veil brushed across her cheek. In the dim light, the outlines of her facial features were vaguely visible, as if feathers were plucking the heartstrings.

Xie Jiusi's hand holding the folding fan curled up slightly.

She was still the same. When he first saw her from afar under the ginkgo tree in Dajue Temple, the aura she exuded was enough to make him unable to take his eyes off her.

Su Yuejian's words just now really shocked him. He had known her for many years, although he had never met her. However, he had read her poems, her paintings, and her calligraphy, all of which were so free and easy, aloof and noble.

She truly lives up to the saying, standing alone in the world, with the breeze sprinkling orchids and snow.

Xiao Chengchang also came forward.

"Princess Minghua truly impresses me!"

Xiao Chengchang actually disagreed with Su Yuejian's words. In his opinion, women were just tools and embellishments. However, he was attracted by the power behind Su Yuejian and her stunning appearance. He was not stingy with a few compliments to please her.

What's more, Xie Jiusi beside her was staring at her and praising her. Xiao Chengchang didn't want anyone else to steal the limelight in front of Su Yuejian.

Princess Minghua?!

The woman in the veil before me was actually the famous Princess Minghua in Kyoto?!

Gu Shaoheng and Lin Mengran finally reacted, and everyone stared at Su Yuejian curiously.

Just now they only heard her call Su Wan "elder sister". They had heard that someone from the second branch of the Su family lived in the Taifu's mansion, and they thought it was a young lady from the second branch of the Su family. Unexpectedly, it was the Taifu's daughter!

Su Yue bowed to Fu.

"Greetings to His Royal Highness Prince Gong. Meeting with Patriarch Xie."

Everyone finally came to their senses and bowed respectfully, "Greetings to His Royal Highness Prince Gong. Greetings to Patriarch Xie."

"Everyone, get up."

Xiao Chengchang said casually, but his eyes still did not leave Su Yuejian.

A hint of displeasure flashed across Xie Jiusi's eyes, but the faint smile on his lips remained unchanged.

Lin Mengran looked at Prince Gong and Xie Jiusi both speaking up for Su Yuejian, and the jealousy in her eyes was about to overflow.

Lin Junmao's face turned ashen, and he glared at Lin Mengran with reproach, wondering why she hadn't told him earlier that this was Princess Minghua. Then what he had just said was clearly an offense to the Grand Tutor's Mansion!

A hint of shock flashed across Gu Shaoheng's eyes, but he quickly regained his composure. He didn't expect that this woman was the granddaughter that Gu Congyu recognized.

Haha, he sneered in his heart. This rebellious look really resembled Gu Congyu's temperament, just as annoying.

What do you mean women are the same as men? Women have been inferior to men since ancient times and should submit to men!

Shallow and ignorant, womanly views!

Gu Xiyue noticed that Xie Jiusi looked at Su Yuejian with a barely perceptible heat in his eyes, and her hand holding the handkerchief tightened involuntarily.

"So she's the daughter of the Great General Zhenbei. No wonder! I haven't heard such an opinion in a long time!"

Li Shushi stroked his white beard with a smile, and nodded repeatedly at Su Yuejian.

Everyone remembered that Lu Jinru was named the first female general of Tianjin. She was as brave as any man and moved the hearts of many women in the world.

"Master Taifu has taught me well. I didn't expect Princess Minghua to be well versed in classics and theories. Great!"

Su Yuejian didn't recognize the old man in front of him, but seeing that the students of the Imperial College instantly shrank their necks when he came in, he must be a teacher or academic supervisor of the Imperial College.

Fu Shen bowed respectfully and said, "Thank you for your kind words, sir. I am humbled."

Li Shushi laughed heartily. What a good girl she is, she is polite and sensible, and her temperament is quite like the arrogance of General Lu in the past. Su Lin is so lucky!

He turned his gaze towards Lin Junmao, Gu Shaoheng and other students, put away his smile, and his tone instantly became serious.

"Is this how the teacher teaches you? What have you learned?"

The students immediately bowed in greeting. Gu Shaoheng cupped his hands and said, "Master, we were just discussing the sutras and doctrines with the princess. The Master often said, listen more, watch more, and learn more. After today's conversation with Princess Minghua, we have benefited a lot."

Li Shushi didn't say anything else. He looked at them for a few seconds and then looked away.

Lin Junmao immediately changed his attitude, laughed it off, and said to Su Yuejian with a smile, "Princess Minghua, it was all a misunderstanding just now. My little sister is being naughty, I hope you won't blame me."

Lin Mengran tugged at the corner of Lin Junmao's clothes unwillingly, and Lin Junmao gave her a warning look.

He still dares to make trouble! If he continues to make trouble, his career will be ruined!

Since Su Yanzhou is in the Hanlin Academy, it is only a matter of time before he is promoted to the cabinet, not to mention that we now have Tutor Su!

Su Yuejian saw Lin Mengran's dissatisfaction and said coldly,

"Whether it's a misunderstanding or not, Miss Lin and Master Lin know it clearly. Just now, you asked my eldest sister to kneel down and apologize, which was an insult to our Taifu Mansion."

"Oh? Is there anything else?"

Xie Jiusi looked at the Lin siblings with a faint smile, but there was a cold hint in that smile.

The Lin family, the Minister of Revenue, seems to have several profitable businesses.

Well... if it comes to income, the Xie family should be able to earn more.

Xie Jiusi was thinking about something in his heart.

Lin Junmao was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect that Su Yuejian was such a tough person and would directly put the matter and dissatisfaction out in the open.

Looking at the sharp eyes of Xie Jiusi and Li Shushi, he lowered his head and said,

"What we did just now was wrong. I would like to apologize to Princess Minghua."

"I do not accept."
