"How dare you offend Lord Su!"

Su Jijiu was flattered.

He was a fourth-rank Imperial College chief academic officer. How could he have deserved such concern from the Minister of Personnel and have him called Lord Su so respectfully?

"Master Jiang..."

He was so excited that he almost didn't know what to say, when he saw the Minister of Personnel walked past him and came behind him, looking at the eldest daughter who he regarded as a stain on the family with a concerned face:

"Master Su, are you okay?"

Su Jijiu was completely dumbfounded.

The person whom the Minister of Personnel respected so much, Lord Su, was actually calling his rebellious daughter? !

There were no female officials in the Wei Dynasty.

She is a woman, and judging from her clothes, she is just wearing cloth. How could she be an official?

Huiyun did not look at her unkind and hapless father. She looked at the Minister of Personnel with a warm smile on her face:

"It's okay. It's just a small matter, but it alarmed Lord Jiang."

Jiang Yuan glanced at Huiyun and the others inconspicuously, and was relieved to see that no one was injured.

"I'm glad you're okay. If anything had happened to you outside our Ministry of Personnel Office, I would have been to blame!"

After saying this, he looked at Su Jijiu, and his kind and gentle expression suddenly became stern:

"Su Jijiu, what's wrong with you? You didn't stay in the Imperial College during your duty hours, but ran to the gate of the Ministry of Personnel and let your slaves hurt people!"

Su Jijiu broke out in a cold sweat.

It is actually very common for high-ranking officials in the capital to occasionally return home or go out for a walk during their shifts for personal reasons.

But if we really pursue the matter according to the regulations, although it would not be as serious as being dismissed from his position, it would easily affect his evaluation.

If Minister Jiang gave him a poor performance rating on this basis, he would have no place to appeal.

After all, among all the previous chief academicians of the Imperial College, his political achievements were not particularly outstanding, so it would be very easy for the Minister of Personnel to make things difficult for him.

"Master Jiang, this... this is all a misunderstanding..."

Although he hadn't figured out what was going on, and he originally didn't want to acknowledge this daughter, but now...

He told himself that if he didn't give a reasonable reason, he would be punished by the Minister of Personnel.

"She...she is my eldest daughter who has been missing for many years. I heard that she appeared in the Ministry of Personnel, so I rushed to find her. In a moment of panic, a misunderstanding occurred!"

Huiyun sneered:

"Su Jijiu's mouth is really fickle. Just now he said she was a family slave, but now she has become the eldest daughter?"

"There are so many people who want to be related to me, but I have never seen someone so shameless, suddenly coming out and saying he is my father's."

With these words, he seemed like a mean person who was trying to curry favor with the powerful and make connections!

Su Jijiu was so angry that his face turned red:

"You rebellious girl!"

Huiyun looked at him coldly:

"Su Jijiu, if you try to make connections again, I won't be polite."

Minister Jiang looked at the two of them inconspicuously.

It is said that the eldest daughter of the Su family has been missing for many years. Some time ago, the Prince of England offered a reward of 10,000 taels to find her, which caused a lot of uproar.

Although this Chief Secretary claimed his surname was Su and was approached by Su Jijiu, I'm afraid it wasn't such a coincidental misunderstanding.

Judging from Su Changshi's attitude towards Su Jijiu, there must be a huge grudge between the two.

But... these are all Su Jijiu's own family affairs.

Even if his daughter doesn't recognize him, it has nothing to do with him.

The Su Changshi in front of him was the most respected divine servant of the Grand Master of the Imperial Academy. How could he offend such a person for a small position as the chief academic officer of the Imperial College?

No matter what the truth is, if Su Changshi says he doesn’t know him, then he doesn’t know him.

So he shouted:

"Su Jijiu, didn't you hear Lord Su say that you recognized the wrong person? Hurry up and apologize to Lord Su!"

Su Jijiu was so angry that the blood in his heart was about to spurt out.

But he still didn't know what had happened. Moreover, the Shangshu ordered him to apologize and did not allow him to refute.

Therefore, he could only grit his teeth and look at the rebellious girl, saying word by word:
